“First time using Rover! Excellent experience. Travis was awesome. Prior to her first walk with him, he came over for a meet and greet which was very helpful. Right away, Whinnie could tell he was a dog lover. He also was very responsive to all of my questions I had in person and via the app. We will definitely use him again! It is such a good feeling to know our pup is being taken care of.”

“Mika was amazing. They took the time to connect with my boy. My boy is hesitant about letting people getting him out of the crate and Mika was so sweet with Salvador. We will definitely be booking with them again!”

“I feel so lucky to have found Emily on Rover. Finding someone that I could trust and rely on was really important and that is what I have found. She walks my dog, Tito, multiple times every week. It makes my day when I get the notification that she has completed a walk with Tito because I can see how happy he is in the pictures that she takes. I have nothing but good things to say about Emily and am so grateful for the quality time that she has spent with my best friend. Thank you Emily! Highly recommend using her services on Rover.”

“Jessica went above and beyond all expectations! She was great with Sullivan and even brought in a package off of our porch when she dropped sully off. Amazing walker and will definitely book again! ☺️”


About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 5 years, and I truly love getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and stay with their pets while they’re away. I especially enjoy longer stays because it gives dogs time to feel comfortable and settled, and I love being able to build that trust with them. One of my favorite parts is taking dogs on enriching walks, keeping them active, engaged, and happy, and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m able to keep up with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship, especially during longer stays when consistency and routine are important. I always try to make pets feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible by sticking closely to their normal routine and giving them lots of attention and care. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, energy level, and needs to make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m attentive on walks, respectful of clients’ homes, and committed to providing reliable communication and updates throughout each stay.
“Met with Maggie for a meet and greet and a walk. Maggie was very responsive and prompt. She was communicative in the app, providing pictures and updates on their potty breaks as well. I’m looking forward to working with her again.”

“Carrianne was able to help us with a last minute walk for our dog. She took the time to stop by the day before to meet him. We appreciated the help and would book her again if the chance comes up!”

“Katie was fantastic! She walked our dog Lola on short notice and was incredibly accommodating. She was punctual, kept great communication throughout, and you could tell she was genuinely excited to spend time with our dog. Highly recommend Katie and will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: Your dog will be treated like family! My name is Melanie Hobbs and I would love to get to know your pets. I grew up with multiple dogs and cats and I've never been without them in my life. We have rescued all of our pets from shelters and I have loved their unique personalities, although sometimes challenging! Maebelle is skittish and crazy affectionate while Nina can be a bit of a bully and a sweetheart at the same time. They have brought a lot of joy to my house. I love big dogs, small dogs, mutts, and purebreds. If you interviewed my pets, they would tell you, "Melanie? Oh yeah, she's the best!" You can be assured your dogs will be in good hands with me.
About: I had dogs growing up and own two myself now. I just love our furry friends! Familiar with lap dogs, work dogs and hunting dogs. I have a great deal of experience with oral, eye and ear medications for dogs as well as being a nurse at a local hospital by trade. I have a flexible schedule that changes week to week, so I can arrange dog services to fit my work schedule before the week begins. I have a tendency to talk to my dogs, and others dogs, like a crazy person... but I promise I am not crazy. I find the level of attention they feel coming from you is amplified when you speak to them, even if they don't understand what you are saying, lol! I have an athletic dogs as well as a lap dog myself and I am therefore used to medium and high energy levels from them. My condo unit is filled with sun and nice and warm in the colder months. Dogs are allowed to roam when I am home and also my furniture is pet-friendly. I play catch and tug of war with one of my dogs and take them on walks daily. I am happy to do all the same things with someone's pet, or more if the particular dog requires.
“Aubrey did a great job communicating when she had issues getting into our apartment. She was able to get in and let Sunny out to go potty which is exactly what we needed!”


“We just moved to the area and were nervous to get someone new to take care of Zuko but everything went so well and we appreciate the communication, meet and greet, and the overall care! 😊😊”

Riverside Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
This is the third time we have had Emily come help take care of our dog and I have nothing but great things to share. She is always on time, sends great pictures, but most importantly I know that she is attentive to our dog and her needs. For example, a few weeks ago, Emily watched our dog for a weekend when we were out of town. At that time, I gave instructions to let the dog out in the backyard before going on the first walk of the day because our dog always has a few zoomies first thing in the morning and it will make the walk smoother. When she came to do an AM walk this time, she remembered about the zoomies and let our dog out back for a few minutes before heading out. I hadn’t remembered to remind Emily of that, so it felt great knowing that she took initiative and catered to our dog’s specific habits/needs. Additionally, I had a neighbor share (unprompted) that they noticed how wonderful the interactions were between Emily and our dog. They said that they heard Emily talking to our dog when they were together and really focused on her, not just going through the movements of taking a dog for a walk. I will continue to book Emily and can confidently recommend her.

Jessica is amazing! Our dog Gabby stayed with her during the day and they got to enjoy nice walks, go to the park and get lots of play time. Jessica kept us updated during the day and sent us lots of cute pictures. Gabby is excited to see her again!

Jessica is fantastic! She is on time, gives my dogs a good walk and excellent care and is 100% reliable. She notifies me if something out of the ordinary happened (like my dog counter surfing and eating a pie!) and even brought in a package that was left by my door. I’m so glad we found her.

Steven was fantastic! As a first-time dog owner, I’ve never left my puppy alone or with anyone else until now, so this was a big step for me. I’m so grateful to have found someone I (and Moose!) trust and feel comfortable with. He took great care of Moose, and it definitely showed - Moose is happy and completely worn out after the day. Thank you for taking such good care of him!

Elise walks my dog twice a week, and it’s been a fantastic experience. She is friendly, reliable, and genuinely loves dogs. My dog took to her right away and looks forward to her visits. I also appreciate the reports, pictures, and consistency—she go above and beyond. Highly recommend to anyone looking for dog walker!
