“Alex was friendly, professional, easy to work with and went out of her way to coordinate with my family about waking our dogs. Absolutely will be calling her again!”
2. Stephanie R.
“I am so happy to have found Stephanie through Rover.com. She is not only a wonderful person but knows how to care for a dog. Stephanie has walked my medium size Australian Cattle Dog without problems although I warned her that Koda gets very agitated when she meets other dogs and people. She showed Koda affection and authority which made for a perfect relationship with Koda. I highly recommend Stephanie for any type of dog sitting. She has a wonderful personality, responds to requests promptly, and does the best job ever taking care of someone's pet. I highly recommend her. If there were more stars I would give them all to Stephanie.”
3. Xianna L.
“Xianna would be the perfect candidate for Rover. Xianna is currently a veterinary student at Midwestern University and is very proficient with all things in the field. She also has trained under a veterinary behavioral specialist which has given her the ability to better handle all sorts of pets with the most stressless methods. A perfect example of these skills was when Xianna noticed her cat was running a slight fever and he was diagnosed with FIP. She was able to treat and medicate her own cat for 3 months straight having to monitor him closely. Her cat is now fully recovered and the happiest boy thanks to her knowledge and loving care. She will responsibly take care of any pets needs no matter the difficulty and treat them with love as if one of her own.”

“Thanks so much Issy!! Issy is simply amazing. Phoebe was so excited to see her again. I appreciate you taking time from your busy weekend to walk Phoebe. We will see you again soon!!”
5. Martha Z.
“Martha is so communicative and friendly, working with her has been a dream! We will continue working with her, she took such great care of our dogs.”
6. Daela R.
“Daela is a sweet and smart dog lover. I have asked her to watch and let out my many foster dogs. The dog rescue, I volunteer for, works with at-risk dogs that could be dog reactive, shy or fearful. I leave her detailed instructions (sometimes I would have to crate and rotate) and she has never let me down. I am so sad that Daela is not available to work for me again. She was my go-to gal for dog sitting and kid sitting. She's been the very best. You won't be disappointed in her work and ethic. ”
7. Byron C.
“Byron is a very passionate and responsible cat lover! He’s extremely attentive and loving with animals. I trust him to take care of my pets!”
8. Alex D.
“Alex is the only caretaker I trust with my pets. She goes above & beyond to pay attention to their unique needs and makes sure they have fun while you’re away. She’s overqualified with her knowledge in vet med and gives my dog so much love that Millie is always happy to see her.”
9. Cheyenne N.
“Cheyenne has been dog sitting/walking Mobius for the past 9 months. He previously had never been walked on a leash before as he was a shelter dog but her patience and kindness has been exceptional. She is prompt with pick ups and drop offs. I have been very happy with her service as she exercises my dog when I am unable to. I definitely would recommend her to walk any dog as she not only has patience but also control when taking fur babies out for exercise.”
10. Audra P.
“Audra walked my 2 dogs for 3 weeks while I was out. She was good with communicating and sending additional pictures when I requested it. We had some issue with the route tracker but besides that everything was amazing.”
11. Janalee H.
About: With over 40 years of dedicated experience in caring for animals, including horses, cats, medium-sized dogs and adorable puppies, I'm here to ensure your furry friend receives the love, attention, and exercise they deserve. Whether it's in the comfort of your home or a delightful stroll in the neighborhood, rest assured your precious pup will be in capable hands. Trustworthy, reliable, and passionate about animal welfare, I'm committed to making tails wag and hearts melt. I work from home with a flexible schedule. I can do afternoon and evening walks. If you need me to check on your pup, I can keep them company at your house or they can stop over for a longer stay with me. I have a fenced yard with grass. There is a pool, without fence. Dogs can get in the pool if they want. Grass in big yard. Large doggy door from the house.
12. Kimberly P.
“I have always appreciated how responsible Kimberly is, and how well our animals get along with her. When she started watching the goats and chickens they took too her immediately. They even trusted her to hold and nurse their kids when the goats had their babies. She is a very hard worker and loves taking care of animals clearly. Would absolutely recommend her as an animal caregiver of any kind.”
13. Regina E.
“Regina was so attentive and loving with my dogs. From the beginning, you can sense she has a passion for animals and taking care of them, she ensures they are happy and well-fed by the time you come back. I always trust her to look after them. She's very sweet, and responsible and will make her best efforts if your pet has special needs. I always felt bad for leaving my dogs at home alone but now that I found her I have the confidence they will be in good hands and grow fond of each other.”
14. Hellen L.
“I have a new house and no dog yard yet thats safe from coyotes. I was going on to a concert a bit far from home. I needed someone to let the dogs out to use the bathroom, feed them and WALK them! I looked for someone close by, young enough to hang onto KIKA on a walk. She's a Jack Russell Terrier and a bit barky and pulls on her leash when she sees one of the MANY rabbits around here! Hellen was flexible as I had to Reschedule a bit as was running around last minute and she had to meet them, find our where their food was, put the harnesses on, etc etc. She came over and I showed her EVERYTHING. I went out to my concert without worry and stress. When she got to my house she sent a picture, letting me know that she got there. When she left, same thing. I was SO relieved to have a pro dog walker..as my neighbors are ALL elderly, as I live in a 55+ development and they forget when to come, where the food is, they can't walk the dogs, they'd pull and get loose, and we have coyotes everywhere, these are dogs 18 and 23 pounds. Snacks for coyotes. Everything was perfect and I plan on using her again.”
15. Leeann M.
“I have had Leeann watch my 3 year old German Shepard, Moko, on many occasion while I left town. I wouldnt call no one else to dog sit my dog. She works well with him, attends to his every need, and also very loving and affectionate with him. Moko loves her presence and loves when she dog sits him. She is very professional and takes pride in what she does. I would highly recommend her to anyone for hire.”
16. Megan J.
About: Hi! I’m Megan. I grew up with a cat in my house but always longed for a dog. Owned my first dog, an American Staffordshire Terrier and absolutely fell in love with dogs on a whole new level. They aren’t pets in my eyes, they’re family. I’d love the opportunity to make a bunch of furry friends and would enjoy giving them more loving care like they deserve. My goal is to be a great fit for your dog, whether that be entertaining lots of high energy or some loving attention for the mild mannered. I am flexible to your wishes for what you and your dog desire and will happily help where I’m needed. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family. I currently run my own home services business on my own schedule so I have complete availability to take care of your pets for whatever schedule works best for you. I have an enclosed back yard for your pets if needed short-term. We are preparing to adopt a dog but currently we just have a gecko and 3 children are here up to 50% of the time. One teen and two pre-teens.

About: I’ve loved dogs all my life and have two mischievous basset hounds. We enjoy having pet company as well as walks, talks, and quiet time. I do part-time contract work and am able to set my own hours. I love staying home with the animals as well as getting out for walks with them. I have a locked, fenced yard and my fur babies roam the house and yard all day. We have a doggy door. I do have a crate, if needed, but will only use at your request.
