“Norah was amazing! Great communication, punctual , uses rover cards properly so you can see where and how far they walked, and she was willing to take Moe for 30+ minute walks in this bitter cold! She never skimped on walking time and she came over for a meet and greet. 10/10!”


“Katie is the best! She is very good with my dog, and very kind and communicative. Thanks so much, Katie! We will definitely always use her anytime and recommend her to anyone.”

“I would highly recommend Maelee. She has walked Scout multiple times now and is always on time and a great communicator. Plus the cute pictures after the walk are always an added bonus 😊”

“Ricardo is amazing! First time using Rover and I absolutely picked the right person. He scheduled a meet-and-greet to introduce himself and get to know my dog. They were completely at ease with each other. Ricardo’s a proactive communicator, provided regular updates, and was always friendly and punctual. I highly recommend.”

“Carly was an awesome dog walker! Great communication, lots of photos and details about my dog. I could tell she really loves dogs and my dog really liked spending time with her. Would definitely use her again. Thanks Carly! Punctual and organized.”

“Brian did a great job checking in on Mochi when I had to work all day. He took him for a walk and made sure he went potty. Gave Mochi lots of treats and attention! Thanks again ?”

About: I’ve taken care of animals of many kinds since I was a little girl, I love all animals of any size! I have been taking care of my dog layla for 8 years. I have a flexible schedule and am available every day to provide pet care, as I am attending school online. This allows me to dedicate consistent and attentive time to looking after pets, ensuring their needs are met throughout the day! I am very attentive to your pet’s needs, always ensuring they receive the care, attention, and affection they deserve. I take the time to understand their individual habits, preferences, and health requirements, so I can provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for them at all times.
About: I seem to be a magnet for anxious dogs and cats! Both my senior cat and adolescent dog have behavioral issues/anxiety, and while it has its challenges, I find bonding with these guys can be the most rewarding experience. Between slow, gentle movements, not rushing a bond, and having lots of treats on hand, I've learned that "difficult" personalities don't always have to be so hard. I work 8-5 on weekdays, with Mondays and Fridays being working-from-home days. I can easily incorporate lunch-time and evening visits into my schedule during the week with open availability on weekends. After adopting an anxious/reactive dog, my partner and I have invested countless hours into a training program that works for us. Through this experience, I've learned the power of positive reinforcement, consent for touch, and patience even when it's the most difficult to find it. I'm a huge believer in redirecting unwanted behavior rather than punishment of any kind. Love and respect is the driving force behind all of my interactions with animals!
“Michelle took great care of my dogs with regular walks while I was on vacation. I came home to happy, healthy boys! I would hire Michelle again; she will take great care of your pets!”

About: I grew up with multiple pets my whole life, with most being medium to large dogs of various breeds. I have 15 solid years of experience with dogs, some cats, and other animals. I am an animal lover at heart, and I am looking for work to give back and care for animals in the community! I am currently in a transition between jobs and am aiming to work remote in the future. I can fit care into a flexible schedule. I aim to communicate effectively with each client before going forward with a service to best meet their needs and the needs of their pet!
About: Over the past four years, I have house-sat a multitude of times for all types of animals; birds, dogs, and even cats. I make sure that they get lots of love and playtime when I'm with them and any other requests by the owners. I have administered medicine to pets while I have house sat so there would be no worries while you are away! I have experience with foster dogs as well and volunteer at Animal Rescue Project. My family also has two dogs and on the owner's request, I can give your dog the opportunity to socialize and get to play with other dogs in a fenced-in yard! I am a college student so I have a very flexible schedule! With my classes, there is plenty of time for me to spend time with your furry friends and give them all the love they deserve while you are gone! I have a fenced-in yard and two playful dogs that would love to make new friends if you want your dog to socialize. When at your home, I'll make sure that your pet(s) gets fed on time, takes long walks, is let out when needed, and gets plenty of time to play. I also love to take pictures to send when you're away because everyone needs to see their fur baby while they are away. As the owner of two dogs, I understand the importance of wanting someone that you can trust to take care of your loved ones and I always make sure I provide the service and time that I would want for my pets.
“Hunter was great with Dot. Very patient and loving. With no fault of his… the snow storm prevented him from doing his walk visit on the 5th. However, We will have and look forward to using Hunter again. Very happy with his communication and commitment.”

Roosevelt Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kasidee is fantastic! My dogs can be shy when walking with someone new but they warmed to her right away. She has a clear passion for animals and treating them with love and kindness. The photos and post walk updates were always great and adorable. Highly recommended!

Kinsey took great care of my puppy. She communicated well and provided high quality photos. She was on time and walked my puppy for the full amount. She took a few moments to greet my puppy to make sure he was comfortable with her before walking. Thank you Kinsey!
