About: With years of experience in pet care and a lifelong love for dogs of all sizes, I bring a deep understanding and passion for caring for your furry friends. I hold a degree in animal behavior, which has given me valuable insights into understanding and managing various canine personalities and needs. My experience includes working as a professional dog bather, where I learned the importance of patience and gentle handling, and I've also worked at multiple dog boarding facilities, where I honed my skills in caring for dogs in a safe and comfortable environment. I am pet CPR certified, ensuring that your pets are in safe hands in any situation. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, a little extra care, or a lot of love, I am here to provide the best care possible. I make it a priority to ensure that your pets receive the care and attention they need, regardless of my schedule. I’m committed to providing reliable and consistent pet care, and I always plan my time to be there for your pets when you need me. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I follow the routines and guidelines provided by the pet owners to keep the pets comfortable and stress-free. I take the time to understand each pet's unique needs, such as feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any specific care instructions. I strive to provide the same level of attention and affection as their owners would, ensuring a seamless experience for the pets and peace of mind for the owners.
About: I have had experience with many different types of animals. I grew up with dogs, birds, hamsters, bunnies and have always been a pet lover! As an adult, I had chinchillas for 10 years and have two senior dogs of my own who will be 15 this year! I adopted them 6 years ago and they are the two best boys around! I work remotely from home 3 days a week and my weekends are usually not too busy! I would be able to be flexible with your schedule I am very careful with my dogs and would take care of your pets as if they are my own. I want the owners to have peace of mind to know they can trust that their best friends are in good hands. We all have busy lives and need help taking care of our pets!
“Sierra was so great with our Remy girl! We booked her for an hour walk and she not only did the full hour walking time, but she also fed Remy lunch and coaxed her back into the crate (a hard task at times, even for us!). She was communicative, on time, and took great pictures that showed me she really took great care of Rem and they had a great time together. Would definitely recommend her and hope to book her again! Thanks Sierra ☺️”
“I can't recommend Mitchell enough. My dog and cat (both of whom have seperation anxiety) loved him and adjusted to him very quickly. He's extremely flexible and accomodating and an absolute pleasure to work with. I loved the detailed updates and pictures I got with every visit. I'll definitely be reaching out to Mitchell whenever I need a pet sitter.”
About: I am a natural animal lover who grew up with dogs. I was a dog mom to my 4 late basset hounds for the past 25 years. I trained all 4 of them as puppies and cared for them into their senior years (oldest age 15.5). I enjoy pet sitting for my neighbor's and friends' dogs including check-ins/overnight stays/dog walks. I groomed my dogs on a regular basis, so I am able to offer bathing and basic hygiene care when needed. I am a social worker who has dedicated the last 26 years of my career working with the special needs community. I am currently in transition with an open schedule to provide dog sitting to meet your needs. I live at home with my husband with a fenced in yard near the MetroParks. It's a two-story (3 steps to enter), pet and child free home. There is an indoor spacious fenced-in kennel which is the preferred space for your pet whenever I am not home.
About: I have grown up with a dog in my house since I was born. I have taken care of neighbors and friends dogs while they have went on vacation or just out of town for work. Since moving away for college and now graduate school, I am looking for my dog fix since I cannot own one myself As the summer is coming to a close soon, my schedule has to change due to graduate school as my main priority. I will keep my calendar as up to date as I can. If you are looking to book with me but see my availability is different then what you’re looking for, please still send me a message and I will do my best to accommodate to make it work! Since I am not able to host dogs at my current place of residence, this will allow the dog to feel more comfortable with a stranger coming to take care of them while the owners are away for however long. I will adjust to their routine so they hardly notice the owners are gone. They will receive all the belly rubs and love they could ask for until their owner returns home
“Alicia did an excellent job, she was very patient, loving and caring. She showed much compassion towards my dog who wasn't as willing to go with her. She soon did and together they had such a great time on there walk. I would HIGHLY recommend.”

About: I got my first dog when I was six years old, and my love for dogs has only grown since! Growing up, I had 2 amazing dogs, a beagle and a lab.

Cassie D.
“Cassie has watched our dogs for us multiple times. We are very picky with who watches our dogs. I usually have family fly in from Wisconsin to pup sit because trust worthy help is hard to come by. But we absolutely love having Cassie watch our dogs. They love her and I'm not worried about them, I can actually enjoy our trips. She is so caring and attentive, very knowledgeable, on time, trust worthy and takes care of your animals like they are her own. 10/10 and would recommend her to anyone. If you're nervous about a pet sitter/walker rest easy knowing you have Cassie to take care of them!”

“I've known Amanda for quite some time now and throughout those years, I've known her to be very animal oriented!

“Maddie was an absolutely amazing dog sitter while we were away. Her gentle, loving, and caring personality shined through in the way she took care of our dogs, making sure they felt safe, comfortable, and happy the entire time. She went above and beyond to ensure they had everything they needed, from playtime and walks to cuddles and affection. It was clear that she treated them as if they were her own, and we could tell they were well cared for when we returned. Knowing they were in such good hands gave us peace of mind, and we are so grateful for her dedication and kindness!”
Riverside dog parents share their Rover experiences
Claudia was fantastic. I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my pit bull, Neo, to Claudia for his daily walks, and I couldn't be more impressed with her service. Claudia is not only punctual and reliable, but she also has a natural affinity with dogs that is truly remarkable. From the very first meeting, it was clear that Claudia is easy to communicate with and genuinely cares about the well-being of the pets she looks after. She took the time to understand my dog's specific needs and preferences, ensuring that each walk was tailored to his energy level and temperament. She was also able to get some of his daily training done while on walks. My dog absolutely adors her, which speaks volumes about her ability to connect with animals. Claudia's professionalism and dedication have given me complete peace of mind, knowing that my dog is in capable and loving hands. I highly recommend Claudia to anyone in need of a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker.
Arianna was a walker with my dog Flynn for about a year and a half and I am so thankful for her! She was communicative and friendly and always good about sharing what happened on the walk, etc. She took the time to truly know my dog and both he and I were able to rely on her consistently. She stayed with him on an overnight occurrence as well, and I would recommend her to any future pet owner - she’s great and we are sad to be losing her as she is moving!

- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
