“Absolutely awesome! Michelle walked our dog on short notice while we were in the hospital for our newborn. She provided so much relief by playing with him and loving on him so much. 10/10”
About: With years of hands-on experience, I've cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, beginning with a 125-lb St. Bernard that was the ultimate lap dog. My current partner in crime is Jett, a charming rescue mix of Wheaton, Portuguese Water Dog, and a few surprises. Whether your dog calls a spacious home or a cozy apartment their domain, I'm well-versed in providing attentive care. I'm eager to fulfill your pet's unique needs, offering services from medication administration to invigorating walks, fun playdates, safe transportation, and enjoyable outings to the park. Cheers! David I am fortunate to have the flexibility of working from home, which enables me to manage my schedule effectively and avoid any overlap between Rover commitments and work. I have a friendly dog to keep your pup happy. I live in a townhouse in a community with lots of space to have safe walks
“Ashley was great with our dog Stowe! He was super excited when she arrived. She is professional and kept in communication with me. Will be definitely using Ashley again!”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for Stefanie! She has been a true life-saver, especially after we had our baby and needed extra help. Knowing we could count on her to take care of our dog, Astro, gave us such peace of mind during a busy and exhausting time. Astro absolutely loves his walks with her, and it’s clear Stefanie treats him like her own. She’s always on time, incredibly professional, and so caring. We feel so lucky to have found someone we trust completely with Astro. Stefanie truly goes above and beyond, and we can’t recommend her highly enough!”

I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from energetic puppies who need structure and play, to senior dogs who need a gentler pace and a little extra patience.

About: I have had multiple dogs my entire life whom I have to take care of. I also train all my dogs and spent a lot of time with my pets. I currently only have one dog in my home.

I also have an italian greyhound who loves to play with all dogs. I have plenty of toys too!

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 13 years old and I’ve had family pets all of my life. I am interested in getting a pet myself and want to build a great routine for taking care of other furry friends in the meantime! I currently work full-time, but I have plenty of accessibility to go home for lunch and take the pet that I am caring for on a walk and feed them if needed. On the weekends, I am always free to care for any pets that I am sitting. I can easily crate your pet, if needed or requested. If your pet prefers to roam, I can accommodate that too. I have plenty of space around my home to walk your pet as much as needed.

We will definitely use her in the future.
