“Friendly, professional, communicative, and prompt! My pup was happy and I enjoyed the report cards. Will definitely be booking with Julia next time I work late”


“Karli has been great! She has been very flexible with scheduling and my dog Stella just loves her. I have a large breed senior dog and she is very understanding and takes special care on walks. I will also be using her to house sit for my dog in the future as well!”

About: I have owned many pets throughout my childhood. To say what kind of experience I have would take more than 125 words because each pet has their own personality and style and I adapt to exactly what your pets need and want. If they want cuddles, they get cuddles. If they want space, they get space. I’m home almost all day so they will get all the attention they ever want(or the space they need). I aim to make them happy! Non smoke home with a big spacious living room to play or rest in. I’ve been dog walking/pet sitting since I was a teen and miss doing that. I love hiking and anything outdoorsy so I’m always up for being outside as well. If you have any questions please reach out! I’m a stay at home mom so I’ll be able to easily take your pup out on walks and quick potty breaks. We don’t have a fenced yard but have a shared yard out in the back as well as a park nearby. I walk them right before I would leave to run any errands and usually don’t take long. I follow the instructions provided so that its not stressful for the pup as well as the pet owner. I send updates on how the pup is doing and what we’re up to. We go out on walks a lot. If it’s okay with the owner than I take the pup out on a shorter hike with my daughter. I make sure to grab water too! At home we see what kind of personality the pup has because some aren’t as active and would rather cuddle while others like to play play play.
“Brittany is very nice. She asked a lot of questions about Micah. Micah really enjoyed his walk and now he’s wore out. Brittany came over last minute which I really appreciate and Micah really liked her. I will definitely be using her again.”

“Jacob was fantastic. He happily accommodated a meet and greet the week before and my pup immediately liked him. He is friendly and clearly loves dogs. He followed all instructions. Took my dog’s anxieties into account and she was happily tired when I came home at the end of long days. Highly recommend!”

“Audrey did great with our reactive dogs. She was incredibly communicative when we met her and asked us many questions. She did everything we asked and I have complete trust in her with our dogs.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and understand that every pup has their own personality, energy level, and unique needs. I provide dependable, well-rounded care that supports your dog’s routine, whether that means exercise, companionship, playtime, feeding, or simply maintaining a calm, consistent presence while you’re away. I’m comfortable with high-energy dogs who need engagement and structure, as well as shy, anxious, or senior dogs who benefit from patience and a gentler approach. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, and environment to ensure every interaction is safe, positive, and tailored to your dog. You can expect reliability, clear communication, and thoughtful updates after each visit. I treat every dog with the same care, attentiveness, and respect I would give my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I’m intentional about creating space in my schedule to provide consistent, reliable visits. I value punctuality and clear communication, and I plan my days to ensure pets receive focused attention rather than rushed drop-ins. Whether it’s weekday visits or weekend care, I aim to be dependable and flexible when possible. Safety and trust are my top priorities. In a client’s home, I respect your space, follow care instructions closely, and maintain your pet’s established routine to reduce stress. I pay close attention to body language, secure doors and gates carefully, and ensure food, water, and litter or waste areas are clean and properly maintained. My goal is to create a calm, consistent environment where your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away.
“Melisa was kind and professional! My dog is often timid and had refused to go out for a walk when I am gone before but Melissa handled it like a champ, was patient and kind, and was able to coax him out of the house. Thank you Melissa!”
About: Hello, I'm Olivia! I’m an experienced dog walker and drop-in pet sitter who has spent years caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m also the go‑to person in my circle when anyone has dog questions on behavior, routines, health quirks, you name it! My own dog, June, is 11, so senior care and special‑needs routines are second nature to me. My previous Rover clients allowed my dog to join in on pet sitting, so she's in a lot of my photos! *She no longer joins for any walking or sitting. In 2026, I’m completing my certification as a Canine Massage Therapist. While I won’t be offering massage services here, the training gives me a sharp eye for mobility issues, discomfort, and subtle changes in movement. I’m always watching for anything that might help you stay ahead of your dog’s health needs with your vet. My focus is comfort, safety, and enjoyment. I want your dog to feel relaxed and confident in my care. I tailor each walk or visit to their personality, energetic, cautious, curious, or slow‑paced. I ask every client for a few key details so I can give the best care possible: *Behaviors I should be aware of (reactivity, shyness, excitement triggers) *Allergies or dietary restrictions *Treat rules *Training you’re currently working on *Medical or mobility considerations You can expect reliable communication, thoughtful care, and a sitter who truly understands dogs. Keeping my dog on her routine is very important to me, so once I have her taken care of and happy, I'm open to creating a routine for your dog whether that's a check-in or short walk while you're away. In your home, we will work together to make sure your dog stays comfortable and on routine. For walks, I will either stick to what you know works for them or I'm also happy to establish a couple of routes that they can look forward to.
About: I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want to make that easier. I’m a caring and responsible pet owner myself, and I’ve also helped care for friends’ pets while they’ve been away on trips. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’ll make sure your pets get lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I’m currently on summer break, so I have full availability and flexible scheduling for pet sitting. Once I return to school, my availability will adjust, but I’m still able to plan around pet care and communicate my schedule clearly in advance. In my own home, I prioritize safety, routine, and a calm environment for pets. I live in a safe neighborhood and have a large fenced backyard where dogs can play and get exercise. I make sure pets are always supervised, have fresh water, and feel comfortable in their space. I also respect each pet’s routine and needs, and I aim to keep their environment as stress free as possible whether they’re in my home or I’m caring for them in a client’s home.
About: I have always had many pets in my house. I currently take care of my 3 cats and have 3 dogs at home who i love dearly. I go to school part-time at WWU and work a part-time job. Pet care is the perfect hobby for me because I love animals and spending time with my pets. I walk my dogs regularly and clean litter boxes and food and water bowls, as well as keep my animals happy and cuddled! I also bathe my dogs and groom them. I am happy to provide any extra care and love to your pets!

I had a Cocker spaniel named Bella growing up, and currently have a golden retriever mix named Indy and two kitties named Misty and Callie. I enjoy walking, giving many pets, treats and doing tricks with dogs! I am dependent and on time, have flexible availablility, and have experience with animal emergencies and medications. I also have experience walking multiple dogs at once. Please reach out if interested in any pet care!
“Danielle has been fabulous. She was available last minute when I was in need on a Sunday right before an unexpectedly busy week. She responded within 15mins to my request, made time for a meet and greet same day, and was very communicative. She has been lovely with both dogs, capable of walking both at the same time, giving lots of attention, love, treats, and updates each time. I will happily use her services again. Highly recommend. Thank you for being amazing, Danielle.”

About: I’ve pet sat for five animals at once, including both dogs and cats! I have experience with animals ranging from puppy to senior! I’ve owned dogs of all different sizes including wiener dogs and newfoundlands! I also have two cats! I’m super flexible and a quick learner who can easily adapt to the needs of your pets! I’m currently working a separate job but it is part time so I have plenty of extra time to spend with animals and have a very flexible schedule! I consider myself to be very likable to animals and have a positive demeanor which animals find comforting! I have experience walking both big and small dogs and caring for cats as well!
About: I’m patient, caring, dependable, reliable and take my dog out on walks every day. I work from home so I will be with your beloved pet at all times. I work from home and have one dog who I walk daily. Most of my time is spent with my dog and if your dog stays with us, they will be with us all day. I do live in an apartment, however, I am active and attentive so I can provide a lot of activity outdoors or spend time with your dog indoors if that’s what they prefer.

Karli has been great! She has been very flexible with scheduling and my dog Stella just loves her. I have a large breed senior dog and she is very understanding and takes special care on walks. I will also be using her to house sit for my dog in the future as well!

Haley did a great job walking my border collie! My dog is very high energy and she came back very calm and happy. Haley was very kind to take several adorable photos of her along their walk too. I will definitely request Haley for future walks. Thank you again Haley!
Halle is wonderful with our dogs and so professional! She was always on time and sent plenty of updates of my happy dogs on their afternoon walk! Having her help us out during the week has been such a stress reliever knowing my dogs are happy and getting the exercise they need. Would absolutely recommend Halle to anyone for dog walking and any care your pets need 🐾

I honestly don’t know what we’d do without Isabella! Red and Amarok are both big, energetic dogs and definitely strong pullers — but Isabella handles them like a total pro. From day one, she’s been calm, confident, and completely in control, which immediately put my mind at ease. She’s incredibly reliable, always on time, and takes the time to send thoughtful updates after each walk. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with, and Red and Amarok absolutely love her — they get so excited when they see her coming! Having someone we can trust with two strong dogs is such a relief. If you’re looking for someone who’s not only skilled but also kind, patient, and professional, Isabella is the one. Can’t recommend her enough!

Rachel was wonderful with our doggie Shadow. She came by to meet us first, get familiar with our property, dog, and us. She was always on time, took our dog for long walks in Lincoln Park where he loves going and kept us informed on exact timing, and progress. We will be hiring Rachel to walk our dog through Lincoln park again.
