“We were very happy with Sara. She made a separate trip to meet our dog before the walk date and we and our dog liked her right away. She came as arranged and sent pictures and text about his walk. I definitely would use her services again.”

“Rook is a wonderful dog walker! He has great communication. He also has patience with my energetic 3 month old puppy. I was so nervous leaving my puppy to go to work, but knowing Rook is coming to take care of her eases my mind! I highly recommend Rook🐶😃”

About: Hello my name is Sophia! I have been taking care of my own pets for my whole life, not just cats and dogs. I am a full time college student that loves animals. I am a full time college student living at home I am available for visits in the mornings, some afternoons and always night. Though my schedule is busy I am always flexible. In my home, I provide a comfortable and pet-friendly environment for your furry friends. They will have their designated space, regular walks, playtime, and personalized care routines.

My approach is flexible and tailored to meet the unique needs of each pet and client I serve.

“Rebekah was great walking our dogs and giving them play time out in the back! They got out to play in the snow! I got tons of pictures, and the pups got lots of love and snacks. What more could you ask for?!”

About: I am an Animal Science graduate from UCONN with lifelong experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, chickens, reptiles and more! I have many years and experience giving all types of animals medicine (Orally and IM). Dedicated to providing safe, loving, and reliable pet care. I'm currently pet sitting part-time! I have lots of flexibility to be able to visit during work hours, weekends and more! Happy to work around many different schedules. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow the owner’s instructions to keep the pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible!

About: I have been handling and training dogs at daycares, puppy and adult day schools, and pet stores for over a decade, and I’m currently working on my certification through the Karen Pryor Academy for professional dog trainers. I prioritize safety and the use of positive reinforcement to keep dogs physically, mentally, and emotionally healthy, and I particularly enjoy helping fearful dogs become more calm and confident with clicker training. Right now I’m in the process of writing a business plan for my own company, so my availability is wide open for the time being. I am gentle, but firm and consistent. I use treats and other rewards paired with a marker to reinforce and shape the behaviors I want, and will use ‘time outs” to enforce necessary boundaries. Your dog will not pull me or get away with problem behaviors, but I also make sure not to be scary and to spend more time rewarding them when they do well. My home now has a large area with a 4ft chain link fence and a smaller potty area with a 6 ft stockade fence that exits from the basement for jumpers, puppies, and reactive dogs. I’m 20 yards away from a system of trails that I can use to hike dogs, as well as being in a neighborhood that can be used to work on distractions.

“Will is great with Jax and Jax enjoys the time he spends with Will! Since working together we’ve seen so much improvement in Jax’s leash walking, impulses and his recall with basic commands. Jax highly recommends Will!”

About: I once owned my own doggy daycare/training facility and absolutely fell in love with all my doggy friends. Unfortunately, a move caused me to sell my business, but now I am back and ready to get back into helping you take care of your furry friend.

I currently have ample time to help your dog while you are away from the home. I am available most weekdays as well as weekends. I will care for your dog at your home as if they were my own.

From energetic Corgis to playful Pit Bulls, from gentle Golden Retrievers to lovable Saint Bernards, I have experience with a wide range of breeds and temperaments. What truly sets me apart is my patience with all dogs, ensuring that your pet receives not only love and attention but also the grace they deserve. Rain or shine, daily walks are a staple in our routine, and I take great delight in strolling through the rain with a furry friend by my side.

To ensure their security, the back door will remain locked during their stay, and all entrances and exits will be conducted through the front door, where a leash will be securely attached to your dog. Unless specified otherwise, your pet will become just part of our family, granting them the freedom to roam certain areas of the house. Our couches and chairs are open for their lounging pleasure, creating a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. To maintain a harmonious feeding routine, your pet will be provided separate mealtimes, distinct from our own animals and children. Rest assured that while under our care, your beloved pet will receive individualized attention, an inviting environment, and the utmost consideration for their comfort and safety.

About: I've had cats and dogs my whole life. I've taken care of them from when they were babies until old age. I've been training my family dogs since highschool. I just finished up a masters degree. I'm currently searching for jobs and have plenty of time to take care of cats and dogs at the moment. I have a fenced yard with a friendly dog who loves making new friends and a cat that will either hang out or just do his own thing.

About: Ever since August 29th of 2018 I've been a mother to my beautiful dog named Daisy (Yorkipoo). If only she could speak, she would probably let you know that I'm always up at the crack of dawn to make sure that shes able to go outside and do her business and then as soon as we get home will I make her breakfast for her as well. I'm a very attentive person when it comes to taking care of animals in general to be honest. I'll always make sure that the animal is OK before taking care of myself. I can promise you that you can not go wrong with hiring me. Only thing that I do require is for whoever hiring me, to be OK with me bringing my dog Daisy, since I do take care of her full time. At the moment, I am taking time to just relax and focus on myself, so that means that I am fully available with no limitations! I will ensure to follow all the rules, treat your pet(s) like they were my own pet(s), make sure to show them lots of love & affection - unless of course they would hate that lol.

“Candice is so great with our high energy Aussie pup ZZ. I love that she constantly works on reinforcing positive behaviors with ZZ along their walks. Her professionalism and flexibility in scheduling is much appreciated as well. Candice is definitely our go-to walker!”

About: Hello! My name is Meghan and I have a love and passion for all kinds of animals. I am currently a part time veterinary assistant and am available for walks and drop-in visits. I have never known a life without pets. Growing up, my family always had dogs, including two German Shepherd police K9s and even a dog who used a wheel chair. Having both working dogs and pet dogs in the house has given a firm understanding of the differences between them, as well as helped me to feel comfortable around multiple different breeds. I have also bred and whelped both German shepherd and Labrador retriever puppies. Currently, my husband and I have two Labrador retrievers, five cats and four goats. I would love to take my passion for animals and turn it into a business one day, which is why I decided to start on Rover. I am currently available for dog walking and drop in visits for socializing and potty breaks. Please contact me for any kind of pet care you may need! I am currently a part time veterinary assistant! I am available during the following hours for walks and drop-in visits: Monday 2pm - 6pm Wednesday 9am - 6 pm Thursday 9am - 12pm Saturday & Sunday 9am - 6pm I have reliable transportation, and will treat your pets as if they are my own. Their safety and happiness is the most important thing to me.
