“Arianna gets all the stars and then some!! She is the VERY best!! Her communication, animal skills, and all around genuine kindness are top notch!! I worked in a small animal veterinary hospital for about six months back in the day and intially w/out further info except reviews etc. here on ROVER, from the begining, I could tell Arianna has that natural intuition+. My pup is actually a bit of a larger(~95lbs.) older guy(~10-11yr's old). He's a sweety but still very tenacious and can be a handful especially at the beginning of his walk or if he sees another neighborhood K-9 friend along the way he really wants to just say hi to. Arianna handles him w/zero issue though. Even my wife who's used to walking him finds it difficult but Arianna has a way about it that just plain works. I applaud Arianna, suggest her to anyone/everyone, and highly recommend her to potential ROVER clientel. Choose Arianna and you'll be more than happy you did. I know I am!!:) Thank you SO much, Arianna!!!! Herbie looks forward to all his future adventures w/you and is happier overall every day he gets to go:):):)”

“Joselyn is great with our dog. She is very warm and understanding. She is happy to accommodate our routine and requests. She is very communicative, asking any questions that will benefit our dog's experience and sending recaps of each walk. I highly recommend Joselyn.”

“Both my dog and I think Claire is the best! She was professional, prompt and a good communicator. And - she went above and beyond - giving Coltrane long walks and lots of attention. I totally recommend her and Coltrane gives her a big paws up, too!”

“Sam came faithfully each day she was scheduled to walk Molly. She adjusted the length of the walk according to how hot it was and how Molly was acting.. Great communication after each walk with pictures included. We love having Sam care for Molly!”

“Holly has been so wonderful to work with. She responds quickly to messages and has been very accommodating to our crazy schedule. Holly has been great about sending pictures and updates from the walk, which is great to see while we're at work! Merlyn loves her!”

“Paige is wonderful and Skully loves her. She is on time or a little early for every walk and it keeps her moving the whole time. They do at least a mile and a half in the hour she's here and I can tell that really helps Skully be comfortable for the rest of the afternoon before I get home. I love knowing I have Paige to depend on to keep my puppy healthy and happy and not having to cross her legs all day”

“I had a vacation out of state and Felicitas truly made me feel like I was still at home taking care of my own babies. She was super responsive, and on time every time. She updated me on one of my dogs limping as soon as she noticed it and sent a video displaying the problem. The pictures she sent were also very cute and funny. My babies adored her. Next time I go on vacation I would absolutely use her again.”
