Dog Walking Salida

About: My pet care experience includes volunteering at non-profit animal rescue organizations and animal shelters! I have experience in working with pets of all sizes and ages! I am very passionate about animal care and have previously developed a club/organization revolving around pet care and spreading awareness of this community to students! Along with this I have cared for and watched families and friends pets since I was 9 years old. I am a full time college student but I love caring for pets during my free time! I find that pet care fits best into my schedule during early mornings or anytime on Fridays-Sundays! I love caring for pets of all kinds and will do all I can to help make them feel comfortable! I have a lot of experience in pet care and know how to handle different reactions.

“Maria did a great job. This was our first time using rover so we were pretty nervous but Maria is a professional and there were no issues we’re so grateful!”

“I can’t recommend Natalie highly enough! She has been an absolute lifesaver for me and my dog, Blue. From the very first walk, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. Blue can be a little energetic and stubborn at times, but Natalie handles him with so much patience, confidence, and kindness—it’s honestly impressive. She is always punctual, reliable, and communicates consistently, sending updates and photos that give me total peace of mind while I’m away. It’s such a great feeling knowing that Blue is not only getting exercise, but also getting attention, affection, and someone who truly enjoys spending time with him. Natalie goes above and beyond every time—whether it’s making sure Blue has fresh water, giving him extra playtime, or just noticing little things about his behavior and keeping me informed. You can tell she takes pride in what she does, and it shows in the way she treats every walk like it matters. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely passionate about dogs, Natalie is the one. I’m so grateful we found her on Rover, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch care for their pet.”

About: Hi, I’m Ethan! I’m 19 and I’m ready to make sure your pets are happy, healthy, and entertained under my care! I have had pets of my own since I was young and love animals. I am most experienced in cat and dog care (all ages), but can care for smaller animals as well! I am always ready and willing to learn your pet’s exact needs and wants in order to fulfill them. Though I have my own pets I am well experienced in taking care of other people’s as well! I have been providing pet and house care services for friends and family since my pre teen years- it’s something I’m passionate about! Thank you for reading and I hope to care for your fur baby soon! :) I just graduated (class of 2025) and am looking forward to making this my part time job during this gap year, and hopefully in the long run! I love animals/pets and helping others, and am ready to dedicate my time to this important work for you and your pets included! I am prepared to learn your pets needs no matter how simple or complex they are- my top concern is your pets happiness and health! I promise any instructions discussed and or left for your pets and home will be followed to a T! This includes pets who are particular about how things are done, such as walks, meal time, Potty breaks, and etc (such as my own pets are- lol!) I understand that being welcomed into somebody’s home and taking care of their fur babies is a privilege.

About: I've had animals all my life, big, small and all species. Friends and family have always counted on me to take care of their pets keeping them happy and safe, while they were away. I have been caring for client pets in a professional manner for about 2 1/2 to 3 years and continue to do so everyday! I have lots of pets of my own that are fed every morning and night as well as taken out for exercise as much as I possibly can. I have experience working as a kennel attendant, some background in vet tech (no degree) and I have been a pet sitter for about 2 1/2 years. I have recently opened up my availability to accept more clients and I would love the opportunity to care for your pets! I like to make sure your pet gets all the exercise they need so they aren’t super wound up by the time you get home! Treats are always giving if allowed and lots of attention of course. For house sittings, I also include plant watering services, making sure mail and packages are brought in and that the house is clean before you get home!

“Lorean is doing an excellent job of walking and training Zoey to coexist with other dogs. I am unable to handle her anymore. Lorean is making great progress.”

“Alex and Blue love each other! Alex is a kind, compassionate doggie caregiver. They did a wonderful job keeping my little boy busy and cozy. I’ll happily boom with them again!”

About: Hello, Rover. I’ve got some extra time on my hands and I’d love to watch or walk some dogs. If you are interested do not hesitate to reach out. I look forward to any and all future prospects. I work from 8am to 3pm so anytime before or after is no problem. I am completely free Saturdays and Sundays as well as summer and winter breaks. I’m available for drop ins or longer stays. I require at least an hour notice of your return so I know exactly when it’s ok to leave. You may simply message me that you are on the way back. If you give me a key please specify if you’d like me to put it under a mat or hand it to you directly. I will honestly just cuddle and sit with your pet so I offer near constant supervision. I can easily crate your pet if needed as well. I will say I do not do well with very large very hyper dogs unless they are well trained.

“Max is amazing! I reached out to him needing a last minute walk for our dogs and he made himself available right away. He is so attentive and truly cares for animals like they are his own. 10/10 absolutely recommend!”

About: I have always had a passion for animals, dogs in particular! Over the last 12 years I have worked as a bather, in veterinary reception and for eight years I ran the office for a pet resort. During my time at the resort I was able to interact with our guests, provide them with a safe environment and earn the trust of many families with our quality of care. I organized several unique opportunities for our clients to pamper their pooches including our annual Halloween Party complete with costume contest, our Thanksgiving lunches and pictures with Santa! I understand how important pets are to their families because I know how important ours are to us. Because of this understanding and experience I could be a great fit for your pet care needs! I can't wait to hear from you and meet your furry family members!

“Makayla was great with my dogs! I asked her to walk them on the rainiest week EVER, and she was so diligent about checking the weather report to ensure that she would walk them in the driest window possible. I was very comfortable leaving her a key and letting her have access to the house while I was away. And I know my pets were in very capable hands!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a teenager. I’ve always been reliable and will treat your pup with exceptional care! I’m mainly at home so I’ll have a lot of time to play with your pet! I will give your pets a lot of love, treats, and toys I have a house with a fenced yard with a decent size backyard. I also live by a nice park that I walk my dogs at.

About: I’ve always had a dog in my home all 23 years of my life. My family has fostered puppies, kittens, and large dogs ever since I could remember and I always had an active role in preparing them for their forever homes. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and some cats. I am open to caring for other animals except snakes. As of right now I am between my Bachelors and Masters programs, so I am free most of the day and can provide very flexible care to fit your & your pets needs. I love dogs and find a lot of joy from simply being around them, even more from playing with them or showing them love. I will make it a priority to ensure all of the pet owners rules are followed carefully and exactly, as I am so appreciative to be granted your trust!

About: Pet sitting is more than just a job to me; it’s my therapy, my comfort, and a little piece of healing that comes from doing something I truly love. Over the years, I’ve learned that every pet is different, and I love getting to know each of their unique personalities. Whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and needing a little extra patience, or older and wanting a calm companion, I do my best to meet them where they’re at. I believe in making pets feel comfortable at their own pace, sticking to their routines, and giving them plenty of affection and attention so they feel right at home, even when their family is away. 🐾 I love being able to include pets in my daily routine. I plan my schedule around making sure they get the care, attention, and love they need. Whether it’s walks, playtime, meals, or just keeping them company, I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. Creating a safe and comfortable space for pets is very important to me. I know how much trust it takes to leave someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I pay attention to the little things — their habits, boundaries, and what helps them feel relaxed. In my home or yours, I’ll treat your pet and your space with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet feels secure, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

About: I’ve always had a deep passion for caring for dogs, and from a young age, I’ve made it my mission to learn everything I can about their well-being. Over the years, I’ve cared for senior dogs and understand the extra attention and patience they require. Additionally, I have some experience training dogs, which has given me a solid foundation in understanding canine behavior and using positive reinforcement. My priority is to ensure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved in my care. I’m experienced with dogs of all temperaments and am fully capable of administering medications when needed. I pay close attention to the unique behaviors and preferences of each dog and am always happy to follow any specific instructions or routines you provide. During each visit, I approach every task with calmness, patience, and consistency—whether it’s feeding, playtime, or walks. I also ensure your dog’s environment is clean and comfortable, as I believe in creating a space where both you and your dog feel at ease. Since I'm currently taking my college classes online and am looking for a job, I have a flexible and free schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time throughout the day for your dog. Whether it's taking them for walks, providing playtime, or checking in on thrm regularly, I'm able to accommodate your dog's needs at any time that works best for you! While caring for pets in a client's home I will go the extra mile to ensure safety and security of both the pet and the home. I will give detailed pre-visit communication, making sure to speak about the pets routines, health, and any specific needs. I will also ask about home security details, emergency contacts, and preferences regarding care of the home. I will do safety checks for any potential hazard such as open windows or gates, making sure everything is secure. I will monitor any areas that you'd like off-limits to the pet. I will pay close attention to the pets behavior and their interactions with the environment. I will always lock up after each visit and always be prepared with emergency contact information and knowing where the nearest vet is.

About: Hello! I have always loved taking care of animals, I have pet sat recently for my cousin, I used to pet sit for my neighbor before I moved, I’ve taken care of my own pets since I was a kid, and I’m experienced with both cats and dogs! I do work, but I have days off, and I don’t always work all day, I’ll know my schedule ahead of time, so I’d be be transparent with my availability. I’m always off on weekends though! Message me about morning availabilities, I turned the morning option off just because I can’t do mornings on the days I work! Of course I’d talk to you about the pets routine, whether it be feeding or even bathroom times depending on your animal, and from there I’d make sure all the requirements are met! I’d play, and of course make sure I supervise your pet! I’ll make sure to follow any rules owners may have!

About: I’ve worked at a Dog daycare/ boarding facility for 3+ years where we groomed, bathed, gave meds, played with, and even snuggled the dogs. I have 4 German Shepherds of my own at home that I love dearly and 2 cats as well :). I am a big animal lover and think all animals deserve to be loved no matter what size or breed. I am very experienced with dogs and cats and will do my best to cater to your needs and make sure your fur baby is always happy with me :) I have a full time job where I’m able to pic my own schedules so whenever you need me to be available I can always make it work around my schedule no problem! I am very flexible!! To keep your pet comfortable in your home, I love making homemade allergy free dog treats (especially during the summer when it’s hot). If it’s my first time meeting your dog I will be sure to give him as much space/time needed to get used to me especially if they’re shy. I will stick closely to their daily routine, Consistency is a big thing. I will make sure to give the dog any attention but on their terms so they’re fully comfortable with me and pay close attention to their body language.
