About: Hi, My personal experience includes having a little Pomeranian dog for 12 years, she loved going to the park and playing fetch with her little stuff animal. Now, I recently added a new addition and have a white German Shepherd puppy who loves long walks, playing in the water, and playing fetch. I have also walked my neighbors yellow lab down to the park a few times when they needed an extra hand. I think it’s very important that dogs have the opportunity to get out and exercise as much as they can. I love all dogs, I would love to go on walks with your dog and help keep them healthy and exercised. I could also work with the owners schedule as they needed. I’m currently working part time and have plenty of time to walk the dog or dog sit! I can work around your schedule! Thank you. I will make sure they will only go in designated areas of the house. If I am on a walk, I will make sure they don’t get overheated and I will always clean up after them.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since high school! Neighbors, friends, and family have counted on me to dog & house sit, feed, bathe, take their dogs on walks or to the park, etc. No breed is too big or too small. I have my own golden retriever pup, Charlie, who has been a beautiful addition to our family. I’m not stranger to energetic fun loving dogs! I am an elementary school teacher! With that, I work from 7am-2:30pm M-F. After school on days and anytime on the weekends I’m available to provide care to your doggies! I have a fully fenced large backyard! With my own pup we enjoy going on long hikes, playing catch, or daily walks around our neighborhood.

“Ruth was incredibly helpful in guidance through the process of using Rover for the first time as well as preparing ourselves for someone else to watch Batman and account for his needs while we were away. She set up a meet and greet which helped decrease all the nerves we had around using this service for the first time, and made sure the handoff when we did leave for vacation was easy and clear. Batman seemed comfortable around her from the first visit and she made sure to keep us updated with frequent pictures and check-ins while we were away. She was also an excellent and clean house guest.”
“Vanessa was punctual, very sweet and Cooper immediately loved her! Coming from out of town and needing help with my pup I appreciated how communicative and reliable she was. Happy to use her again!”
