“My dogs are my world and Sylvia makes me feel comfortable leaving them in the care of someone else. One of my dogs is dog reactive so her knowledge and handling experience was a huge peace of mind for an anxious dog mama. She’s super easy to get in contact with and has great flexibility with my odd hybrid office schedule. I defintely recommend booking :)”


“Rosemarie was wonderful with my new-to-us somewhat rambunctious pup. Great communication and a terrific photo to boot. Thanks for taking care of Benny!”


“Andrea was great meeting both my pups for the first time! She asked questions about needs and anything important that would be helpful for walks or interactions with other animals/people. Introducing new people to a household can be stressful sometimes on pets, and my older pet can get protective. However, Andrea was super patient and understanding when it came to my slow introduction process. I appreciate her time and love for pets!”


“so helpful walking my dog, easy to communicate and work with my schedule”


About: I have taken care of family and relative's dogs for about two years. It mainly consisted of pitbulls. I have also owned three cats since I was 15 <3 As a nursing student, I can promise I will treat your dogs just as I treat my patients, with patiences and care,. I am currently studying for my NCLEX. This gives me time during the days and evenings, as well as availability almost seven days a week. We can always work out a time and day that fits both our schedules. Just let me know what kind of care you would like for your pet and I will happily accommodate. I believe that their safety and trust in me is most important.


“Had a great first experience with Rover thanks to Lilana. I was a little anxious to use the service, but Liliana has been a delight and very communicative. Will be booking her services again.”


“We can't recommend Kai highly enough! From the moment we met them, we knew our Bubs was in good hands. They are incredibly friendly, reliable, and trustworthy, and our dog absolutely adores them. Not only do they take great care of our furry friend on their daily walks, but they also go above and beyond to ensure that our pup gets the exercise and attention they need. We have complete peace of mind knowing that our dog is in such caring and capable hands. If you're looking for a dog walker who will love and care for your furry family member like their own, look no further than Kai!”


“Audrey is awesome--great communication from the get-go, prompt, and caring for our older dog that isn't always the most mobile. Audrey immediately filled us with confidence that she could handle any issues and gave us great peace of mind during our trip. Hoping we can have Audrey help us out again!”


“Cheryl is one in a million. I am so thankful that she came into my pups lives. My dogs are not easy to handle, but she was understanding, compassionate, and loving to them since the first day she met them. She is knowledgeable, skilled, extremely reliable and has helped me out more than once in a last minute situation. I cannot recommend her highly enough for any pet that you may have that is special needs or needs attention beyond your average care. She’s an absolute pro.”


“Lauren is awesome and our puppy loves her. Punctual, great communication, sends updates/pictures, walked our pup longer than the 30 mins we booked, which we and our pup can’t thank her enough for, and offered to clean our pup’s paws after a rainy walk!”



“Houston treats Hank like he is her own dog. Hank is always calm and happy after she takes care of him. i couldn't do my job without her valuable and reliable help!”



“Absolutely amazing! It is always scary leaving town knowing you have a reactive pup waiting for you at home. Tiffani was great, communicative and flexible. I definitely feel more at ease now for work travel knowing someone is in Piper’s corner.”


About: Recently, a friend introduced me to her pet who she'd warned barks like crazy and often scares people. When I arrived, she got her barks out within a minute or two. My friend said she was being so good with me. I have a calm energy that animals seem to feel at peace around, so a your pet should feel right at ease with me when we meet for the first time. Can't wait to walk your precious angel! I work remotely, full time. I'd love to take dogs on walks during my work day or work from home at your residence while you are out of town and need someone to watch your baby! I do not have any pets of my own, but was recently approved to foster so I'm excited for that to change! Even when I do foster, I won't be bringing fosters around any pets I'm walking as this is the policy of where I foster. I'm a very neat person, and if I'm spending time in your home, I try to leave the space feeling like I was never there!

About: I love animals and genuinely care for their well-being. I follow instructions with an eye for detail and will keep you in the loop with plenty of updates and photos. I'm currently unemployed outside of gig work, so my schedule is almost completely available. I'm happy to do short term or long term care and can be flexible to cater to your needs. I prioritize safety by following all client instructions, keeping pets on their routines, using secure leashes, and creating a calm, clean, and respectful environment in their home.

About: My family always had a dog growing up, so im very familiar with them. Then, after I moved out I got cats of my own, and learned how to take care of them too! Im at teacher, so im typically available nights and weekends. I'd be able to come over and provide whatever necessary services after school and on weekends I make sure I respect the pet's boundaries. I never pet a cat or dog first unless I know it's okay and they feel comfortable with it! I've watched dogs and cats at my apartment before, and we always make sure the pets feel safe

About: I treat every pet like family - with patience, love, and lots of belly rubs! What sets me apart is my personalized, compassionate care. From playful pups needing training and fun walks to seniors needing meds and gentle attention - I'm here for it all! Pet care is a joyful part of my routine, and I build my schedule around it. I am available weekends and various weekdays for walks, and drop-ins. Whether it's a puppy needing playtime or a senior dog needing extra care, I'm flexible and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for like family. Whether in my home or yours, I create a calm, loving space where pets feel safe. With a fenced yard and nearby parks, they'll enjoy playtime, cuddles, and fun adventures - plus personalized care and consistent routines.

About: With over 20 years of experience caring for pets, I provide reliable and compassionate care for animals of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I’ve grown up with everything from a loyal German Shepherd to a tiny guinea pig and currently house a 14-year-old dachshund and an 11-year-old calico cat with chronic illness. I also have experience with exotic pets, including snakes, and understand the unique needs of older and special-needs animals. While I welcome dogs and other pets into my home, I do not take in other cats to prevent the spread of Feline Herpes Virus. Rest assured, your cat’s health is a top priority, and this precaution ensures their safety, as the virus is only transmissible through fluid contact. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or quality companionship, I’m here to make sure your beloved pets are happy, healthy, and cared for like family. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I currently have a flexible and open schedule, allowing me to prioritize your pet’s needs. Being unemployed at the moment gives me the unique ability to adapt to most schedules, whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening visits. I’m dedicated to providing consistent, attentive care and can easily adjust my availability to fit your pet’s routine, ensuring they get the love and attention they deserve whenever needed. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I ensure their routine stays as consistent as possible to minimize stress. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding schedules and walks to playtime and any special care needs. I make sure your pets feel comfortable and safe, keeping their environment clean and giving them plenty of attention and affection. For drop-in visits, I check in on your pets at the scheduled times, providing food, water, and any necessary care, including walks or litter box cleaning. I also send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. If I’m providing pet walking services, I prioritize your pet’s safety and enjoyment by sticking to your preferred routes and maintaining proper control. I ensure your dog gets the exercise and attention they need while keeping them safe and comfortable. Whether sitting, walking, or stopping by, I treat your pets like family, always prioritizing their well-being and happiness.

“Mary is wonderful and kind with Mica! Mica is excited to see her for her walks and I’m really looking forward to all of their upcoming walks! Mica was immediately happy with Mary. Mary has already been so helpful and flexible and I trust her with my best friend!”


“First time using Rover and Katherine made it very easy. Communication was on point. She made sure to share plenty of details and was always on time. Will be using Katherine in the future.”


About: I have a big heart for pets! I myself have a rabbit, who has become part of my family. At one point I had a dog which I had to leave behind when I came to the United States. So I have experience in handling and taking care of dogs. I love being around dogs and I will take good care of the dogs entrusted to me. I will treat the dog with dignity and sensitivity. Along with that, my children are especially fond of pets, and the pet under my care will not feel alone or isolated and will have plenty of willing hands to play with it and keep it company. I will give it the care and attention it deserves, and will love it like my own. I’m at home most days as I am a stay at home mom and my kids also love pets and will be around them also to play with them. I have a fenced yard and a friendly cat and will be able to be with the dog at all/most times. I also will be able to take your dog on multiple walks a day.

Richard G.
“Richard has taken care of my pup Pepper many, many times. He is my go-to person and I trust him immensely. Pepper can be a real handful and Richard has always made the right call when I’ve been out of town/unavailable and taken excellent take of her. He is kind, patient, knowledgeable and I can tell he really cares about her.”


Jordan A.
“Jordan has taken care of my dog Frida a couple times and has always done a great job. Frida is a very nervous dog's and doesn't really trust other people, and Jordan has done great at being patient with her while making sure she is being cared for. He would send me photos of her when he would take her out for potty walks and generally through the day. He also did very well in keeping me updated on how she was doing through her stay. When I come back to pick Frida up, she has always been in a good mood and visibly well taken care of. There are not many people I would trust to take care of Frida and I feel lucky to have found Jordan.”


Mayra Y.
“I’m so grateful to Mayra for taking such wonderful care of my beagle while I was away! My dog is super friendly and loves people, and it was clear right away that he absolutely adored Mayra. They truly went above and beyond—whether it was long walks, playtime, or just giving him the affection he’s used to at home. It gave me total peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. If you're looking for someone who’s responsible, attentive, and clearly loves dogs, I highly recommend Mayra”

Star Sitter

“Makda and her family are wonderful. As personal friends they are very caring and ready to serve you as much as they can. They are very caring with their own pet bunny. I am amazed to see how much love one bunny can get. Makda's kids are wonderful with pets. I dog sit at my home as well. When they come for a visit, they are comfortable with the dogs and love to play with them. I highly recommend Makda and her family.”
