“Karen was a great dog walker. We had our initial meet and greet with her and she was very understanding with how our dogs were with new people. She was very patient and kind with them. I loved the updates with photos she put on their report card, I could see that they were being well taken care of. She would keep me updated when I needed to refill their doggy bags. My dogs quickly liked her and would patiently wait by the door for her to come. As an anxious dog mom, I was able to trust her completely. I would highly recommend Karen for any pet needs.”
“Mariah stepped in on very short notice after my foot surgery and walked Samson. She was prompt, caring, and did a great job. I’m so grateful and would definitely book her again.”
“It’s been an absolutely wonderful experience working with Jacqueline. She has been reliable, caring and has great communication. She even washed the doggy dishes I left in the sink and remembers to always give them water before leaving. 10 out 10 recommend!”
“Jennie is great! She offered to accommodate Petey last minute with her mom. Petey and Busker really like her. Would definitely recommend if you need a reliable, friendly walker/sitter!”
About: Hi there! I’m Diana. I enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m experienced with small to medium sized dogs with different personalities at varying ages from 1yrs-13yrs. I provide attentive, reliable, and compassionate care, including feeding, walking, playtime, and basic grooming. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every pet like my own, making sure they always feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I understand how much your fur babies mean to you, and I’m dedicated to giving them the same care and affection you would Pet care fits naturally into my routine — I love spending time with animals.

About: Loyalty, trust, safety & the love for all types of animals are the key to a working pet environment. I fondly believe that a pet isn’t just a pet, but a part of the family. Luckily, I have been around dogs all my life and have been responsible for them for about 22 years. I have experience walking, sitting, along with some training. Walks with me aren’t just about potty breaks. It’s your pup’s time to get out & live life...just like us! It’s the time to work out all that built up energy and a time to be social. Belly rubs included! I currently work as a freelance hair colorist. My schedule is very flexible. I can offer drop in visits, walks, and extended stays whenever needed. My schedule is flexible, so 1 can easily fit walks, visits, or boarding into my day. I adjust to your dog's routine, making sure their normal timing, habits, and comfort stay in place. Your dog will have a safe, private environment with no unfamiliar dogs. I only board multiple dogs if they’re from the same family, so your pet’s space stays calm, consistent, and low-stress. My home stays clean, comfortable, and focused on your dog’s routine without the chaos of large group boarding.
“Denise is amazing! She responded super quickly to my last minute walk request, accommodated a meet & greet the same day, and is very understanding and flexible. We are grateful to have found her :)”
“Alyssa did such a great job with Sadie! She was so understanding with last minute requests. She gave our girl a good time and lots of cuddles. We would 100% book her again! Thank you Alyssa!”
“This was my first time using a dog walker and I’m so happy I chose Lauryn. She was the perfect choice. Lauryn was super professional and communicative. My Niko was obsessed with her. If I could give her 100 stars I would. Definitely using her again.”
“Here’s a grammatically correct and natural-sounding version: Wen is the best! I had an ankle injury and made a last-minute request for a walk, and she generously helped me. Noa also had some stomach discomfort, and she took great care of him. He really likes her and already misses her.”
About: Hello there… Thank you for checking my profile. I have plenty of experience with Rover. I took a break and deactivated my account to enjoy life, but I am back! I grew up with dogs and owned (survived) a Siberian Husky for 15 years. They are my favorites, so if you have a rebellious Husky, I got you… I am an expert when it comes to animals and can assure that I am able to communicate with them and anticipate their needs, so your dog will, GUARANTEED, love me! I can do FaceTime for initial meet ups and to answer any question. We can negotiate regarding hours. Please feel free to inquire. If you are going away due to the holidays, I can stay with your pet until you are back. I do not only provide great care, but also can read your dog body language and provide exactly what they need and when they need it. I am organized and LOVE a clean space, so if you like your place immaculate clean, we will get along great.
“Amy has been wonderful. I adopted a dog and within the first week, Amy met her and has been walking her twice every week. She is responsive and professional. Very pleased.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I have for every dog I meet. To me, dogs are never “just pets”, they’re family, and I know how much trust it takes to leave a family member in someone else’s care. My goal is always to make both you and your dog feel completely comfortable, safe, and cared for. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for them through every stage, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs who need extra patience and gentle attention. I also have two years of professional dog walking experience, which has helped me become confident with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m very affectionate, dependable, and attentive, and I always take the time to understand what each dog needs to feel happy and secure. Whether that means going on long energetic walks, playing their favorite games, sticking to their routine, or simply giving them comfort and companionship, I’ll always care for them with kindness, patience, and love. I truly enjoy building a bond with every dog, and I treat them the same way I would want someone to treat my own. 🫶 Pet care fits really naturally into my routine because I have open availability and can adjust my schedule as needed. I’m flexible during the week and weekends, so I’m able to take on walks, drop-ins, or sitting whenever I’m needed. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I try to keep everything as close to their normal routine as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. I follow all instructions carefully: feeding schedules, walk times, medications if needed, and any specific habits or preferences the pet has. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, whether that means playtime, long walks, or just being there with them so they don’t feel alone. I’m very clean and respectful of the home as well, so I always leave things the way I found them. Most importantly, I pay close attention to how each pet is feeling and adjust my care based on their personality, whether they need a lot of energy and stimulation or a calm, gentle presence.
“Leah is fabulous dog walker. I felt very confident leaving our dog in her care while we were away. She was thorough, caring, and kind. She always sent us detailed reports, along with pictures of our dog’s progress.”
About: I’ve taken care of my own and other friends’ pets for several years. I take the time to get to know the pets I work with including what is healthy/enjoyable for them to eat and what activities they enjoy (ex: walks or play with pets). I’ve especially had practice with caring for energetic pets/ puppies. I work part-time as a medical assistant at a derm office, where I work 2-3 days a week. I have a flexible schedule if informed in advance. In caring for pets, I ensure that pets feel both love and comfortable in the environment that they are in whether that be by providing entertainment, lots of love, and a consistent routine. I always follow the rules and routines set forth by pets owners as they are the ones that know their pets the best and what will make their pet happy.
“Thank you Leslie! We really appreciate you walking our dog Energy! I know he can be a lot to handle but seems like it wasn’t a problem for you! Will keep you in mind the next time he needs a walk 🙏🏾”

Juan has been an amazing dog walker, and my corgi absolutely loves him. He is reliable, trustworthy, and always accommodating when scheduling changes come up. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about the dogs he works with, and I always feel confident knowing my pup is in good hands. Juan is friendly, professional, and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog walker.
Marlene has been an absolute lifesaver. She always shows up on time, provides updates of her walk with our pup and is always willing to accommodate our schedule. She shows a genuine love for animals and knows how to handle our 60lb energetic rescue pittie. I am very happy to have peace of mind, knowing we can rely on her professional services.
My sister was injured and Ksenia really helped out by walking my sisters dog on short notice. Ksenia really enjoyed her time with my sister's dog and from what I heard the feeling was mutual for the little guy because he enjoyed playing while they walked together. Thanks Ksenia!
