1. Molly C.

“Molly has been walking bowser for just over a year now and he just absolutely adores her! She’s very attentive when it comes to your dogs needs and letting you know if there’s anything out of the ordinary. She’s always been always to help out last minute if it was needed or stop by again if I had to work late. She truly makes being a pet owner so much less stressful knowing you have someone with them who cares for them as much as you do when you’re away!”


2. Zachary W.
About: I have had pets ever since I was little kid. I have had cats, dogs, and even lizards! I love animals and have had other people rely on me to watch after their pets in time of need. I currently work full time but I only work 3 days a week, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pet! Whatever you made need I will be able to help! I have a spacious yard where your pet can roam around in. I have a 7 month old Doberman that loves playing with other dogs. I am able to crate your dog and prove anything else that your pet requires.

4. Meghan Z.


“We we very comfortable leaving our two dogs for the day, she walked them 3 times and made sure they had food and water.. I will certainly be using her service again!”




5. Lauren M.


“Lauren is great. I had already booked Lauren to come on a specific day where both my husband and I work long hours. On this day, my chronic illness appeared which sometimes keeps me bedridden so Lauren kept the appointment anyway and walked Mabel. I felt such relief because I feel guilty about not giving Mabel the outdoor time and exercise that she needs when I become ill. Lauren is so dependable and Mabel clearly enjoys her.”


6. Arabia W.
“I have lived next door for years and have witnessed the excitement, warmth, and love that Arabia has for animals. She is very gentle and absolutely amazing with animals. I couldn’t recommend anyone more qualified and gifted to be able to care and love your pet like they were her own.”


7. Ashlee F.
“Ashlee took care of my best girl on short notice while I was on a business trip. She sent me pictures of their adventures every day. 10/10 would ask for her to take care of my sweet dog again!”


8. Joda V.
“Joda has years of experience with the rescue community and has a keen sense about dog behavior. Joda will give 110% in caring for your pet. She cared for two of my dogs, saying in my home as I deployed internationally. She was prompt, courteous and very loving to my dogs. She stayed in my home and was respectful of it. Animals are her passion, it’s not just a job. She will be an asset to whomever she serves with her gift of kindness to your pet.”


9. Linda M.
About: I have had animals my entire life. They love me and I love them. Haven't met an animal yet that I did not get along with. My love of pets and helping others has brought me to Rover. I have plenty of time to help. Recently moved back to my home state and looking for a part time job. Happy to be back and help with your pet needs. I do not have a fenced in yard, but happy to use a leash. I care for pets in your home per your needs and instruction.


10. Bradley D.

“I’m new using the Rover app, but my dogs absolutely love Brad and I would highly recommend him thus far. He seems to be quite knowledgeable of dogs and how to walk and care for them. Owning two German shepherds who normally don’t like strangers, they’ve taken quite well to Bradley. I would recommend him to family and friends. 5*’s”

About: Hi there! I have had animals at home my whole 30 years of life! From cats to dogs to rabbits & chickens! I have been professionally watching peoples pets for the last 4 years. I did attend a vet tech program in 2018. I have experience with puppies, all the way to senior care. I am comfortable and experienced at administering meds as well!

All pets will be at the main floor of our home, we do have a basement. We are not fenced in but are completely surrounded by woods on our 5 acres of land! Most of the dogs I watch will be put on a leash outside unless I am told they won't run away! Also, will crate if that is what they are used to!


12. Cecily M.
“Cecily has been one of my best friends for 18 years (since grade school). Growing up together, I have witnessed her gentle care and kindness for animals. She would be a perfect candidate for watching anyone’s animal with respect and care! She is responsible and genuinely cares about animals well-beings.”

If you do not have a fenced in yard, I have a 50ft lead I can bring to play with your dog.


17. Alexandra K.
“She stayed with our 10 month old very needy puppy for a week and did a great job. When we came home our puppy was happy to see us, but when Alexandria came to return keys a few hours later she was beyond excited. She is able to give a ton of love while also being firm and consistent which is very important for puppies. I highly recommend her services!”
