“Great communication and was great with my puppy. Took him out and gave him his food and made sure he was comfortable along the way! Would definitely have Cynthia walk my dog again in the future.”
“Huei is absolutely amazing! She was so accommodating with my high energy puppy and even worked on training with her while I was at work. We only planned on using a rover for while my partner was out of town but we plan to work with Huei regularly now if she’ll have us 😊 she sent so many photos during her walks that gave us peace of mind too! Can’t recommend her enough.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine one-on-one attention I give each pet, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. I have been around dogs for most of my life and have been caring for them for about six years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their pets, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog's unique personality. Whether a dog is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace and lots of cuddles, I enjoy making them feel comfortable and cared for. I especially enjoy spending time with senior dogs and understand the extra patience and attention they sometimes need. I am currently a college student, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and spending quality time with your pets throughout the week and most weekends. Caring for animals fits naturally into my routine because it is something I truly enjoy doing. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I do not take that responsibility lightly. I always follow your instructions carefully and do my best to keep your pet's routine consistent. Whether I am caring for them in your home or taking them on a walk, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I treat every pet the same way I would want someone to treat my own.
“Karina immediately made us feel comfortable during our meet and greet. It was especially comforting knowing she worked at Nala’s daycare and has experience with all types of dogs. She was timely, communicative, and followed all instructions. Would book again. Thank you, Karina!”
“Bradley is wonderful, kind and considerate. He makes the most out of the walk time & is super personable with my dog, who can sometimes have trouble warming up to men (but was clearly & quickly comfortable with him). We will definitely be rebooking as needed! Thank you Bradley!”
“Excellent communication and attention to the weather to avoid overheating Ceara's paws. Ceara was calm, happy and well exercised when we returned. G. was pleasant and professional.”
“We are so grateful for how caring and patient Alexander is with our large, rambunctious dogs! It’s been a relief to know that they’ll get lots of love and long walks every day.”
“Had a great experience! Joshua took great care of Carlos and spent extra time playing with him. He sent lots of photos/updates which I really appreciated. Carlos came back happy and clearly had a great time. Would definitely book again!”
“Josh was amazing. He took great care of both my dogs. His communication was great and I felt really safe leaving both dogs in his care. I will absolutely be booking with him in the future.”
“Chaarushena has been wonderful with our 8 year old dog who gets very anxious with new people. She’s patient, reliable, and clearly understands dogs well. Our dog took some time to warm up to her, but by the end of the visit was happy to go on her walk. Chaarushena has a calm, confident approach that we really appreciated. We’re would highly recommend her to anyone who needs help walking their pup!”
“We just started with Gloria and she has been great with our large golden doodle which is no easy task. Very professional, shows up on time, delivers timely feedback and progress reports. Would highly recommend Gloria.”

Kim was professional and considerate from the moment we met. She walked my pup a few days while I was out of town, helping split care with my mom. Kim checked in ahead of the service, during with questions, and sent lots of pictures to clearly show what happened. When my pup was sick one day, Kim kindly cleaned up after her and sat with her instead of trying to push through with a walk. I felt so comfortable leaving my pup in her hands.
We just adopted our dog from a rescue about a month ago and Andrea has been so communicative on each walk. Yogi is high energy and not the easiest on walks. I gave a lot of suggestions to help Yogi practice what we’re working on in training, and Andrea has been so good about trying to help him stay consistent and just making sure he’s well loved and cared for while we’re at work. Yogi has been doing so well at home after she takes him for his walk and plays with him. Would not hesitate to have Andrea walk Yogi again!
Shanni is incredible! We were so lucky to have her walk Bucky for the past year. It was also very clear that Bucky loved every walk/visit with Shanni. We are so grateful for all she did for Bucky, and we recommend Shanni to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring.
Seriously amazing! Nicole saved me when my walker had to cancel last minute & I was due to be going out for the night. Darcy was immediately comfortable with Nicole, who knew exactly what to do with my nutty cattle dog. Darcy is so happy & calm after the little jaunt. Thanks again & we'll be back again soon!
