“Joshua was amazing! We reached out to him the day before we needed our sweet pittie girl walked and he was quick to reply, so kind and the communication was great. We will definitely have him walk her again!”
“Carly was an absolute delight to have as a dog walker. Our dog Daisy adored her. Carly was communicative, reliable, kind and met all of our needs. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog walker. We will most definitely be rebooking her in the future when we need it. Thank you so much Carly!”

“Melissa was fantastic with Daisy, who can be a little shy. She was very much in tune with daisy’s energy level while walking and let her just rest on the shade when she needed a break. She was also super responsive and flexible when plans changed and she was asked to feed daisy after her walk.”

“Ella is amazing! She’s reliable, flexible with scheduling, and always provides detailed updates after each walk. My dog Shelby loves her and is always happy and well taken care of when I get home. I would highly recommend her for anyone seeking an easy, trustworthy sitter!”


“Lisa did a great job walking our dog! She came when scheduled and followed instructions. Our dog is 67lbs and strong. She loved Lisa and they did well together. I look forward to scheduling with Lisa in the future if possible.j”

“Sade is EVERYTHING!!! I have a very energetic big puppy who is still learning not to jump on people AND walking on a leash. She has been such an important piece in consistency when it comes to training, I've seen the difference in Nakia's behavior in those areas.”

About: When I’m not at work, I spend most of my time with our 9 year old rescue dog Cooper, or spending time going on walks as a family. In my spare time, I’ve had the pleasure of fostering 7 rescue dogs in our home until they all were matched with a loving family and their forever homes❤️. Lover of all animals (cats included, although I cannot pet them due to allergies🤧). I enjoy getting to meet and take care of all sorts of pets on Rover. I’ve even had the chance to feed a families horses while they were away on vacation. If your fuzzy family member needs a babysitter, a nice walk, or anything in between then feel free to send me a message! Currently open 7 days a week for availability. Feel free to reach out regarding availability or with any questions, and I’m also happy to do a meet and greet if preferred. For high energy dogs I have taken them on neighborhood walks, hikes, or played toys with them. I always let the pet parent guide me on what their dog is up for. We have a senior dog gentleman of our own, so for dogs with a milder temperament I am happy to take them on short walks or can hang inside with them if that’s more their speed.

“Elizabeth is incredibly kind and caring. She communicates clearly and consistently, and did a wonderful job earning the trust of our nervous dogs. We truly appreciate everything she does—both we and the dogs are very grateful.”

“Kat was amazing!!! so responsive and communicative, sent photos and was all around just so pleasant! It’s so clear she loves animals and she genuinely loved spending time with our pittie girl. Will 100% be booking with Kat again and again!”
About: I’m an experienced and attentive pet caregiver with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve had multiple pets in my home since childhood, provided pet sitting for friends and neighbors over the years, and currently have a very active working dog I’ve raised and trained from puppyhood. I’m comfortable with a wide range of temperaments and routines, and I focus on calm, consistent care so pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I work as a freelancer in entertainment so I have lots of availability during mornings and weekdays while you're at work with plenty of flexibility. I have a fenced in yard and plenty of open space in the house as well as crates and barriers to keep unwanted behaviors contained and controlled safely. My car is pet friendly for transport and am capable of out-hiking even the most energetic dogs with great leash control. Our neighborhood is very dog friendly with lots of sidewalks and minimal trash and wildlife.
“Joanna was great getting to know Sandy and was very caring towards her. She asked questions, shared concerns and we shared ways to make her stay more comfortable. We can’t wait to work with Joanna again!”

About: I’ve had experience with pets of many ages. Puppies/kittens, adults, and senior pets. I’ve had my own dogs and cats since I was 3 years old, and friends and family trust me with the care of theirs. I also have 2 gerbils! I love caring for animals no matter what it takes. I currently work part time, so weekdays preferably in the morning and afternoon work best for me. I could also fit some time in the mornings on weekends. I can take your pet on walks outside, in your yard, and use crates in the home if needed. I can use whatever resource in your home you’d like me to.

About: I had a childhood dog I would walk when I was old enough, and I currently have an amazing 8 year old mutt who I’ve raised since she was a puppy. I love animals and will be happy to take good care of your pets! During the school year I’m a collegiate student-athlete, but my summers are free. I work as a babysitter and at a camp for a week over, so I’ll have plenty of free time to hang out with your pets over the summer months! I take long walks with my dog everyday while I’m home from school and am very capable of and would love to do the same for your dogs!
“Matt has been great walking our dog Ziva. She looks so happy in all the pictures he sends. He's even brought our trash bins back to the house on trash pick up days - so thoughtful! We get great communication with each walk. I definitely recommend him for dog walking!”
About: I’ve been around dogs since I can remember. Friends and family always come to me to watch their dogs when they need it! I am very trustworthy when coming to pet sitting. I do weekends (Friday-Sunday) but I can occasionally do weekdays. Depending on my school schedule I can accommodate to your needs for pet care (Monday and Tuesday if needed). I am willing to sleepover at the owners house, I will feed, walk, and care for the dogs thoroughly. If not sleeping over I will be there routinely for the dogs.
About: I am a dog lover, pit mama with 2 rescue dogs. I am a School Counselor looking for a fun way to spend my summer! I am a dog lover, pit mama with 2 rescue dogs.

“Jen was such a pleasure to work with! Very knowledgeable about animals & truly tailors her services to what you need! For someone who never needed to rely on a dog sitter app for my dog, she really eased my nerves and i felt totally comfortable leaving her with my baby! Jen sent the BEST photos and updates regarding the care for my dog & i can tell how happy he was with her!! Jen is super warm, welcoming & punctual! Her communication is top notch & i will ABSOLUTELY be using her in the future!!”
