About: I have experience caring for high-energy and working breeds, including dogs that need structure, exercise, and calm guidance while away from home. I focus on creating a safe, balanced environment with enrichment, routine, and personalized care for each dog. I’m comfortable with crate routines, leash handling, impulse control work, and helping dogs settle calmly into a new environment. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I maintain a structured and active lifestyle, which allows me to provide consistent walks, exercise, and attentive supervision throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks, and I prioritize keeping dogs on a steady routine that mirrors what they’re used to at home. Whether your dog needs structured exercise, calm companionship, or a balanced mix of both, I build their care into my schedule — not around it. Because I work from a stable home environment near Travis AFB, I’m able to provide reliable availability, consistent potty breaks, structured activity, and regular updates. Your dog’s safety, routine, and well-being are never an afterthought — they’re part of the plan. Dogs in my home are cared for in a calm, structured environment designed to help them feel safe and settled. I keep routines consistent with regular potty breaks, structured walks, mental stimulation, and purposeful play. Dogs are never left without supervision for extended periods, and I monitor energy levels to ensure they’re comfortable — whether they need exercise or quiet rest.
“Loved Gabriel’s WILLINGNESS to learn from the dogs! I intend to snatch Gabriel up because of this and his kindness with my fur babies! I will DEFINITELY be booking him for a weekly schedule 😊!”
“Courtney came over to visit our dog a week prior to walking. She’s super friendly, reliable, communicative, and awesome, and we are so excited to have her back to walk him!”
About: My name is Destiny and I grew up caring for large and small dogs and cats. I have hands-on experience raising puppies and kittens from birth through adulthood. As an adult, I continue to care for both cats and dogs, including adopted shelter cats and my own Labrador Retriever and Standard Poodle. Both of my dogs are neutered, gentle and affectionate. My Standard Poodle loves to run and play and can be wonderfully bouncy, but he's also surprisingly nurturing and likes to make sure everyone is okay. My Labrador is basically Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh—a lovely potato who is particularly drawn to wee, scrappy dogs. I actively study canine behavior and learning. I train and participate in dog sports including obedience, scent work/nose work, agility, Barn Hunt and NASDA. I'm comfortable observing canine body language, following established training and management routines, providing enrichment, and adapting my approach to the individual dog. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy getting to know animals as individuals. I don't expect every dog or cat to immediately love me, and I don't force interaction. I believe comprehensive care starts with paying attention to what makes an animal feel safe, comfortable and understood. I work from home with a flexible schedule and control over my own hours, which gives me plenty of time to incorporate walks, play, enrichment, meals, potty breaks and companionship throughout the day. Our household is unusually quiet and relaxed. There are no children in the home, and my neighborhood is a peaceful residential area that's well suited to walks and downtime. Pets staying with me have opportunities for activity and engagement, but also plenty of time and space to settle, nap and simply relax. Because I'm home much of the day, pet care fits naturally into my routine rather than having to be squeezed in around a long commute or rigid work schedule. I believe pet care starts with understanding the *individual* animal. I take time to learn each pet's normal routine, temperament, preferences, training cues, feeding needs and anything that may make them uncomfortable or stressed. My approach is calm, patient and attentive. I don't force interactions, and I pay close attention to body language and changes in behavior. I follow owners' established routines and management instructions carefully because consistency can make being away from home much easier for a pet. My home is clean, quiet, child-free and low-stress, in a peaceful residential neighborhood. I want visiting pets to have a comfortable place where they can play and engage when they want to, but can also settle and rest without constant activity, noise or disruption. When caring for pets in their own homes, I bring the same approach: respect the animal's familiar environment, follow the household's routines carefully, communicate reliably with the owner, and leave things exactly as I found them.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I don’t think there was a year in my life where I did not have a dog to help take care of! I have taken care of small dogs, medium dogs, and big dogs! We also had a lot of other animals while I was growing up. I’ve taken care of birds, fish, reptiles, and even rabbits. So I am happy to take care of other pets as well if you have them and we can talk prices! Depending on the needs of your pets, I will form my schedule around taking care of them! As of right now this is my main job but as soon as I find another job this will become something I do on the side for a passion hobby. I will always start by asking the owner of the pets to explain their needs and wants before implying anything that I would do on my own. (Customer needs and wants come first) I have fun playing with the animals dogs and cats alike. So if they have favorite toys if I am house sitting then I will let them have fun with that! If I am walking dogs I tend to keep a steady pace so that the dogs get good healthy exercise.

I am typically working Tues-Fri 7a-530p. I am available to drop in and care for your fur babies any time around that schedule with proper notice. I will only walk your fur baby on the requested route should there be one, and for the requested time. During check-ins, I will make sure to clean up any messes made by your fur baby upon arrival and before I leave. If there are any special instructions regarding the care of your fur baby, I will be sure to adhere to those as well.

About: I have years of animal shelter experience, so I have been trained to interact with animals of all sorts of temperaments. I've been an animal love my whole life and am usually the first person my friends think to call when they go out of town to care for their furry children (: I've had at least 1 dog in my life from the time I was 8- so my daily routine has always consisted of including a little pal to care for and spend quality time with. I treat any animal under my care the way they should be treated- like a family member who requires belly rubs, treats, and high pitched conversation as if their life depends on it (; In all seriousness I treat all animals with all the TLC they deserve.

About: Since I was about six I have always had dogs in my household. At a young age I learned the responsibilities it takes to be patient, loving, and caring for another living being (pets!).

One of my dogs recently passed away of old age and I took care of her by myself. During the week, I am working from 8am-5pm. I am available before 8am and after 5pm on weekdays. In the weekend, my availability is open and may be scheduled to change. I will not be bringing pets into my home. In regards to care for pets in client’s home, I will follow the directions given to me and ask any questions and/or concerns that come up. It’s all about communication, if I am not sure about something I will simply ask. In the event where I have a question and/or concern and the client does not respond, I will use my best judgement; as I have had dogs all my life.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Olcott. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
