“Tawnia is great! She’s so patient with my pups, esp since one likes to pull and the other has been defensive of our home. But Tawnia does so well with both pups and we love having her for walks!”
“Candace is great to work with. I reached out for dog walking my two rescues. They have some quirks and she manages them well. I’m happy she’s available when I need her. I will use her service again.”
“My dog gets better with every walk with Robert. And so do I, I learn a lot from the notes he leaves. Always reliable always on time and always I come home to a happy tired dog!”
About: I've been a pet caretaker for most of my 45 years, but I only put 25 in the years experience because those adult years of my life have been most dedicated to pet care. I am a serial adopter of rescue animals, so I'm well versed in pet conditions that need special care. I don't crate our animals and I love them all unconditionally. If you have a pet that needs special attention or even a modicum of training, I'd be happy to help you take care of them. I'm a military veteran and author working from home. I spend my entire day spoiling my pets (I have both cats and dogs, and they get along well enough). I walk the dogs daily, sometimes more than once. The dogs get brushed regularly and the cats get brushed if they make an appearance or we can catch them. As mentioned earlier, I do not crate our pets. I prefer to let them roam, but I occasionally do block off certain areas of the house to prevent naughty behavior. The pets are always rewarded for good behavior with snacks.
“Brooke is the absolute best! She is consistent, punctual, an excellent communicator, and our dog goes nuts when he sees her. I’ve utilized several dog walkers/sitters through Rover in the past but none are as dependable as Brooke.”
“Delena is great with Koda and Colson. They had an instant connection. She puts on their leash and is off on their walk. They already know that she is there to take them out. Will continue to work with her.”
“Avery is so awesome!! Sent photos and updates, which I loved! Being away from my dog is so hard and she made it so much easier on me. Will be using Avery again and again. ❤️”
“Kimberly was able to help me out last minute, which was amazing! We didn't have time to do a meet and greet, but she was still able to follow my instructions and walk my dog. She is a great communicator and I will definitely use her in the future!”
About: I am an animal-crazy adult Vet Tech student who's been inspired by my 10-year journey with a traumatized, reactive rescue pup who recently passed. I grew up with dogs and cats and rabbits, and adopted a rescued cat while in college who was with me for 13 years, but it was my experience with a traumatized rescue-pup later in life that led me to recently return to school to become a Vet Tech. I initially worked with two private trainers and began studying trauma response in dogs and cats, practicing skills to reduce fear and build trust with special needs pets. I am a registered volunteer with the city and have several repeat/current clients. I make a point of getting to know the personality of each individual in my care, and adapt my energy and/or activities to get as close to their level and needs as possible. I provide care in the comfort of your pet's own home and am available for any activities your pet enjoys. We can walk around your neighborhood, play with enrichment toys, go for a car ride, you name it! I am also happy to just sit with your pet in the same space. My goal is to keep things as close to your pet's normal as possible when they are in my care. When I care for pets in their home and neighborhood, I stay as close to their normal as possible and keep a regular routine they can rely on and trust. I am a guest caretaker in their safe space and always work to respect and honor it as such.
“I have used Kalantha for over a year to let my dog out while I was working 13+ hour shifts. She has been 100% reliable and trustworthy. I feel totally comfortable letting her in my home and I know my dog enjoys spending time with her.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12, both my own and family members’. In more recent years, I’ve expanded to helping out anyone who needs it, whether they need me to stay for a week or just pop in for a quick break outside. I’m currently out of work, so aside from classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, along with a couple weekend trips out of state, I’m completely free! I’ll always keep a close eye on pets when let outside, I can easily crate them if applicable, I’ll always be sure they have plenty of water and are fed on time, and I’ll gladly walk and play with them anytime!
“Really appreciated Lauren's help with taking care of the dogs when I couldn't. They got in some great walks and I got some great photos out of it as well. I highly recommend her if you need a sitter or a walker!”
“I hate to brag, but my dogs are just crazy about James. They now hear his truck pull up at the house and they start going nuts. They know they are going for a walk. And we have had other people come before, never the reaction they have with James. We are relieved to find him, not just when we go on vacations, but just when the dogs need to burn off some extra energy. Highly recommend.”

Onate dog parents share their Rover experiences
We couldn’t be happier with Olivia! She is reliable, warm, and clearly experienced with animals. From the moment she met our two dogs, they took to her instantly—which says a lot, because one of them can be a little particular. It’s such a relief to know our dogs are in good hands. We highly recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker or sitter!
Cristina was great! She was able to fit us in last minute and was flexible. It was supposed to be dog walks while my husband and I were at work but things changed and my husband ended up being home the first day due to severe dental pain and he needed urgent surgery the day after that. The walk time didn’t change but She was understanding and flexible with picking up and dropping our puppy off on the patio, etc. she was polite and professional and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!
