About: I have 3 wonderful rescue dogs who I adore. I am a high school teacher and would love to spend my summer walking and getting to know other pups. I have had dogs my whole life. Two of my current pups are very leash reactive so I have lots of experience managing tricky situations on walks. I am currently on summer break from my job as a high school teacher and am available most days/times to give your pup a wonderful walk. I will make sure to follow all care instructions you leave for your dog. They will be the center of my love and attention on our walks. I will send pictures from each walk😊
“Susana is the best. She treats my baby like her own and offers the best possible service. Can’t recommend her enough.”
“Audie is an amazing walker and super attentive to our dog’s needs. She is very flexible and goes out of her way to make sure our dog has everything he needs. We will definitely be booking her regularly!”
About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats for years—not just my own, but also for friends and family who trusted me with their pets, sometimes from multiple households at once. Through those experiences, I’ve learned how to quickly pick up on each pet’s unique personality and respond in a way that makes them feel safe and comfortable. I raised my own dog from puppyhood and spent two years building daily routines with him, including some light agility sessions just for fun. While I’m not a professional trainer, this personal journey taught me how to read behaviors, adjust calmly to different energy levels, and build trust with animals of all kinds. If your dog enjoys staying active, I also offer light jogging sessions as an optional add-on—just let me know! I work from home and follow a steady routine, so I can easily adapt to your pet’s schedule—especially with advance notice. I’m used to planning my day around feeding, walks, and check-ins, and I enjoy creating a calm, reliable environment where pets feel safe and cared for. Whether I’m visiting your home or caring for pets in mine, I prioritize a calm, safe, and respectful environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely (including dietary needs and preferences) and take the time to understand what helps them feel secure. If a pet has physical sensitivities (like joint issues), I’m happy to adjust the space to prevent strain or injury. My goal is to build trust gently and keep pets safe, comfortable, and stress-free.
About: 40 years of pet care experience. Taking care of Bunnies, Lizards, Birds, Cats, Dogs, and Guinea pigs. Rescues and strays, health and diet management. Have given insulin to my parents cat on several occasions. Have experience with giving pill medications to cats as well. Dog walking is fine. We have a big back yard that is fenced and let our pups run in. We had birds (parrots, parakeets and cockatiels), rabbits, Guinea pigs, rats, hamsters and a pet iguana growing up. I also worked for NE Vet Hospital for a few years as well. Pet care is extremely important. If you have a specific feeding time or diet, if they need medications or a shot, you can trust me to take care of their needs for you. In my home, we have a fully fenced back yard, that is about 6 feet tall. We also have a baby gate to separate spaces if we need to. Our pups let us know when they want to go outside and we just open the door for them and let them explore. If I am sitting at your house, I always stay respectful to how you would like things to be done and follow directions that are given. Please let me know what you need and I can help. Thank you!
“Adriana did a thorough meet and greet before coming over to the house for the first walk. She is positive and reliable. She took time to sit with the girls and get them more at ease with her before heading out for a walk. We got lots of pictures and feedback. We will definitely book her again!”
“Hutton was great! This was only my second time booking a rover walker and she provided a great experience for my pup! He can be a shy dog with strangers but Hutton did a great job earning his trust. Will be booking her again next time I need a walker!”
About: I’ve taken care of my reactive dog for seven years, so I understand how much trust you’re putting into your dog sitter! I respect training that you’ve put your pet through and love following your rules! I’m a teacher on summer break, and currently have my dog every other week, so if the stars align, I’m happy to care for your dog on off weeks! I am comfortable taking your dogs on walks, keeping distance from others. I have a great walking route near my home. I am comfortable with giving medicine and caring for your pup!
“Angela has been wonderful with our little Bichon Frise. And Oscar loves her! Angela has been very kind, friendly, and patient with our pup and an excellent communicator with us via Rover. - Lauren 😊”
About: I had to leave my family dog at home when I moved for school and I miss her! Please let me use all my pent up animal love and take care of your furry friend! I have experience house sitting and pet sitting dogs of varying sizes and cats. I am currently a full-time student but between classes spend most of my time at home doing school work. My internship is fully remote so I’ll be able to be home most of the week! My family and I have had some truly awful pet sitters and have seen first-hand the impact it had on our dog. I take pet sitting incredibly seriously and work hard to accommodate the routines your family have implemented for your furry friend.
About: Hi there! My name's Joanna and I am a huge dog lover. I've been intermittently dog sitting for around four years now and recently started taking up dog walking as well. I do not own a dog myself but I always take the chance to be around dogs whenever I can because I truly believe they are the best and sweetest animals in the world. I really love dog sitting and walking because not only to I get to be around dogs, but I also get to learn more about different breeds, how to care for senior dogs, and such things. I promise to provide your best friend, your baby, your companion with the best care they deserve and always to shower them with tons of love. Can't wait to meet you!!
About: I have extensive experience with shy and anxious dogs, as well as very active dogs. I really enjoy running with my own dog, as well as training. I have personally owned dogs from 10-100 pounds so any size is fine! Currently I am studying for licensing exams, so I am at home full time. I update availability regularly so you can be confident I can be available whenever your pup needs me! Safety is a top priority. I always follow your pet’s routine and instructions closely, from leash preferences to feeding needs. I keep a close eye on body language and behavior to make sure your dog is comfortable and safe at all times. I never let dogs off-leash in unsecured areas, and I’m happy to work with reactive or anxious pets using your established strategies.
