About: Hey there! While I’m new to Rover, I’m definitely not new to caring for dogs. I’m a proud dog mom to my sweet girl, Hlub, and I know just how much love, attention, and care our pups need (and deserve!). I treat every dog like family—with patience, playtime, and all the love they need to feel safe and happy. I might not have a list of Rover reviews yet, but I make up for that with genuine care, strong attention to detail, and a huge heart for animals. I’ll follow your dog’s routine exactly, send you lots of updates, and make sure your pup gets all the cuddles, walks, and play they need while you’re away. I’d be honored to earn your trust and your dog’s tail wags! Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I have a dog of my own—my sweet girl, Lu. Every day revolves around making sure she’s happy, healthy, and loved, whether that’s morning walks, playtime, feeding her on schedule, or just relaxing together. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs, and making them feel safe and cared for is something I do with joy, not obligation. I have the flexibility to include pet care into my routine, and I always plan my days with my dog’s needs in mind—so doing the same for your pup would feel like second nature to me! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my approach is all about making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable—just like they would with you. In my home, I keep a clean, cozy, and pet-friendly space where your dog will get lots of love, playtime, and structure. I stick to their usual routines (like feeding times, walk schedules, and any special instructions) so they feel right at home. I also make sure they have plenty of room to relax and play, and of course—lots of cuddles if they want them! In your home, I’m super respectful of your space and routines. I’ll follow all your instructions closely—whether that’s medication, feeding, crate time, or just how your pup likes to be greeted. I’ll also keep you updated regularly so you always know how your fur baby is doing. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, their comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities! *There’s a trail and pond right nearby so we are always enjoying plenty of walks outside.


“Tiffany is very pleasant, reliable, and really connected with our dog Bella. She is very amenable to suggestions as to where to walk Bella.”


“I'm so happy to have found Samantha to walk my dog while I'm at work. She responded to my initial request almost immediately and has been very responsive ever since. I needed someone on short notice and Samantha was super accommodating which was a relief. She was great with my dog at the meet and greet and I know she'll be great with her every time! She's wonderful to work with and I'm looking forward to my dog seeing her on a regular basis.”


“Markita is reliable and professional and communicates well. My dogs are comfortable with her so she is my go to dog walker when needed”

I’ve always been a huge animal lover and grew up with all kinds of pets. If I could have a farm, I would!

He’s now 8 years old and is still our very loved and spoiled pup. ☺️ 📢 Starting in August, I’ll be returning to school full-time, so I’ll only be offering boarding services from Friday through Sunday while I’m working from home. If you need care outside of those days, feel free to message me! Depending on my school and clinical schedule, I may be able to offer a bit more flexibility. For dog walking services: on Mondays I am available after 2pm, Wednesdays after 3pm, and Fridays all day. We live in a two-story house with plenty of space for your pup to run around indoors, as well as a spacious yard with artificial dog friendly grass that’s perfect for playtime.

Rio Linda dog parents share their Rover experiences
Gracie took my large 7 month old puppy for a 1-hour walk. She was kind enough to keep up with the leash training I've been working on with him. He went straight for the water bowl when he got home and then plopped down on the cold tile, so she definitely gave him a good workout! I will definitely use her services again.
