“Mona is very communicative and flexible. I had multiple changes in my work schedule and Mona was willing to accommodate me. Both my pup, Aya, and I are very thankful for Mona’s help during the day. Also, Mona is a photographer. She has taken wonderful pictures of Aya which make my day while I have to be away. Thank you, Mona! We appreciate you and hope more pups get to have some outside time with you instead of being alone at home the whole day 🍀”

“Samantha is a very nice person. I am very lucky that found her to walk my dog Chico on a very short notice! She is very friendly and respectful. Chico gets very excited to see her! Thank you Samantha!”

“Lexie is the best! She is extremely responsive, helpful, and loves dogs. Our puppy always enjoys when she checks in for walks. She also provides training during her visits and writes comprehensive Rover Cards for every visit, including photos, which we always enjoy reading. We completely trust her and are so happy we met her! Thank you, Lexie!”
“Kenneth is the absolute best. Bandito is always so so excited to see him. He takes Bandito on long walks and is always so good at updating us on how he is doing. We can always count on him!”

“Sheila has been walking my dog Violet since July. She is trustworthy, reliable, flexible and caring. She has lots of expirience with dogs and can handle walking a dog that doesn't have the best manners on a leash! My dog Violet seems to really enjoy her walks with Sheila! She has been able to fit in a walk for Violet every single time I have asked, even if I have contacted last minute due to a scheduling conflict on my end. Sheila is very detail oriented and observant and will notice and alert you if something seems off/different about your dog. I can't say enough good things about Sheila!”

About: I have a 9 year old retired racing Greyhound, and have extensive experience with cats and dogs. Because I have my own pets, I understand how important it is to treat your pets as if they are my own. There is nothing quite as therapeutic like a relaxing, fun walk or play session to keep your pet happy and healthy. I would love to talk to you and find out how I can help you and your pet when you need drop in care or are away. I am experienced with timid dogs and cats and have experience administering medications as well - let's chat to find out how I can help you and your pet. I can be flexible based on you and your pet's needs. Let's discuss what you're looking for and how I can help you and your companion!

I always keep things cleaner than I found them, close all gates (I have a horse- if you open it, you close it!) and am very respectful of others' homes and pets.
About: Animal lover since birth! I have taken care of dogs, cats, frogs, rabbits, turtles, fish, lizards, and hamsters ever since I was 6 years old. I treat ever animal with love and compassion as if they were my own. Special skills include senior animal care. I would be able to spend quality time with your fur-baby! I am able to take your pet out as many times as they needed during the morning/afternoon/night. I live in a house with a huge yard for pets to go to the bathroom, play, etc. Just down the street is a dog park that I love to go to! For over nights - I allow the dogs to sleep in my room so they don’t get lonely. I have food/water bowls and a dog bed (fits medium breeds), however, if your dog likes their own things then please feel free to bring them 😊
About: I’ve had em all! Dogs, Cats, Lizards, Turtles, Fish, Goats... My family has always kinda been drawn to animals, so we’ve pretty much always had (at least) a cat or a dog throughout my life. And people have noticed that I get on well with just about any dog or cat or whatever else, because my friends and neighbors have, more often than not, called on me for their pet-sitting needs. I’ve pretty much been doing this since I was 10 years old, so I generally know what I’m doing. I have a flexible schedule, and am okay with traveling a fair distance. My only limitation is that I cannot board dogs at my own house. However, as I said, I am flexible and can travel as needed. I am doing this as my job, and while school is out, I am mostly free, so I can devote time to your pet’s care. I care about animals, and I understand that they can be traumatized by being separated from their family. I try to be a calm and reassuring force in their world. Their needs are paramount, and I am willing to adjust my schedule to accommodate them. I am trustworthy and will respect your household as a guest. Any special requests you have, I will do my best to accommodate.
“I am very thankful for Yesenia and her services. My husband and I went out of the country for a week and Yesenia was available to come to our home every day (sometimes twice a day ) to walk our 4-year old dog. I appreciated Yesenia’s flexibility in coming to meet us first to see if it was a good fit. She kept me updated and overall, I felt like my girl was in good hands.”

About: I first began learning the responsibility of pet care while taking care of my grandmother’s dog. From feeding and walking to making sure he felt loved and safe, I gained hands-on experience in daily routines and the importance of patience and attention. Over the years, I’ve built on that foundation, caring for pets of different ages and needs. I understand how much pets mean to their families, and I treat every animal as if they were my own—whether it’s energetic playtime, gentle senior care, or sticking closely to their routines. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I currently have full availability. Being at home and not tied to another job allows me to be flexible with scheduling and attentive to each pet’s needs. Whether it’s early mornings, late evenings, or last-minute requests, I’m able to provide care whenever it’s needed. My home has a fenced yard for safe outdoor play. I always follow routines, keep spaces clean, and make sure pets feel secure and loved.
About: I treat every dog like it’s my own and i enjoy taking care of dogs. I have a deep love for animals and will be able to provide the utmost care and love for your pets! I think its a great way to spend my time and make money. I feel like i can show my experience and i can learn something with each dog and i can connect with owners. Im willing to do anything that is needed. I am nice, friendly, and sociable with dogs and their owners. I have extensive knowedge on taking care of dogs. I’d love to be able to showcase my skills and make your dogs as happy as possible while you may be busy with your everyday lives. I’m currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I can make time either before or after I go to work to make sure that they get the attention they love and deserve! I have a fenced in yard and three friendly dogs to keep your furry friend happy! Im also able to crate your dog if needed!
About: I have a medium size calm dog Judo who loves the company of other dogs. I have been caring for my own dogs since 2014, and started Rover in 2018. I also foster dogs for Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and especially have experience with shy dogs that need help trusting people. Because of allergies, dogs are not allowed on furniture or in the bedroom. We only take one dog at a time to insure your lovely pup gets the attention they deserve. We only accept dogs that are fully house trained. Accidents happen, but please do not send your dog over if they already have urinary or digestive problems. Please understand that we only accept fully vaccinated dogs to protect the health of our resident dog. Before booking with us for the first time, we would like to do a meet n greet to ensure a good fit. I work from home and my schedule is pretty flexible. Potty breaks in the yard available throughout the day. Two walks a day with my dog and park visits on weekends. All interactions between dogs will be monitored. When I’m not around I will keep them separate in the first three days until I am confident that they get along. Food will be fed separately and toys will not be left around.
“Christina is so helpful and makes me feel so safe knowing she’s walking my pup while I’m at work. Christina always checks in and sends the most adorable pictures of my pup. Thank you so much Christina!”

About: My name is Kathryn and I have worked for a local pet sitting agency for several years, including housesitting, dog walking and drop in visits. I also have several years experience caring for my parent's dogs when they travel. We do not have any pets of our own currently so there is no worry about any potentially problematic encounters. I am a huge dog (and cat) lover and so are my kids!! I have an 8 year old boy and a 5 year old girl who are huge dog lovers too! My family is very active so we will be sure to give your pet all of the exercise, play and love he/she needs! We can't wait to give your dog or pet a loving, caring "second home"!

Skyler was great! She communicated well and took amazing care of Goose. She was very aware of his needs and shifted when the weather was too hot for longer walks. I would book her again in a heartbeat! We’re so glad she was able to walk and take care of our dog!
