“Karin was amazing, so sweet and took great care of my dog. We had 5 appointments with her. She spent time playing with him and giving him attention and I received several pictures in his rover card everyday. We will definitely use her again in the future!”


“Really sweet and caring girl! I really appreciate the time she took with my shy dog to warm up to her! I totally recommend her services! She’s taking care of my dogs weekly and we’re so grateful to have found her!”


About: I’ve always been an animal lover, and dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with them since I was five gave me the chance to learn firsthand how to care for different breeds with all kinds of personalities and needs. Somewhere along the way, taking care of dogs just became second nature to me. I’m currently a college student at the University of North Florida, and even with a busy schedule, I always make time for the dogs in my life. I am also in Delta Gamma sorority and I love doing volunteer work I go to the human society a lot with my sorority. My first pup was a super energetic Jack Russell who kept me on my toes and showed me the importance of regular exercise and mental stimulation. Later on, I got experience with bigger breeds like a Great Dane and an English Bull Mastiff—both gentle giants that taught me patience and how to handle mobility and health concerns with care. I’ve also looked after a smart and active Brittany Spaniel mix, a trio of fun-loving Labradors, and now my two mini Goldendoodles who are all about snuggles, grooming, and consistency. Each dog has taught me something different, and I’ve really come to appreciate how important it is to adjust care based on their unique needs and personalities. Whether it’s a puppy full of energy or a senior dog who moves a little slower, I’m confident in my ability to provide the kind of attention and care they deserve. I love being active, I’m super dependable, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs—which is why I think I’d be a great fit for Rover dog walking. I’m all about keeping dogs happy, safe, and feeling loved, and giving pet parents peace of mind while I do it. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as I prioritize providing consistent, quality care. I schedule walks, playtime, and check-ins around my other responsibilities while still being a college student at UNF, ensuring each pet receives the attention they deserve. I’m flexible and adaptable, making it easy to accommodate different schedules and pet needs. I prioritize safety by following each pet’s routine, using secure leashes, and being attentive during walks. I ensure a clean, comfortable environment, respecting clients’ homes while providing care. I communicate regularly with pet owners, offering updates for peace of mind and building trust through reliable, compassionate service.

“Sharon was great! This was our first time using Rover and I was a bit nervous, but she was so communicative and took good care of our pup while we traveled. We’ll definitely use Rover and request her again.”


“Kyleigh is very professional and met with me prior to scheduling walks w my pup, which I really appreciate. My pup seems to love her. She is very responsive via the app and we were able to coordinate visits within a short notice.”


“This was my first time booking a dog walk with Kylie and she did not disappoint. She was so nice and so understanding and patient with Bailey, will definitely book her again!”

About: I’ve had a German Shepard named chicken for about 2 years now. She is the light of my life and I love taking care of her. She is such a good challenge because she takes trazadone and is very anxious so it helps me with my own patience and understanding. I also have a cat named ollie who is a rascal and keeps me on my toes. He loves ice cream and running through the house at 3 am, he’s adorable and amazing! I work nights on tuesday and wednesday so it fits in great seeing how I have so much free time. It’s honestly a great thing to combine my love for animals and my love for work! By following any rules that the owner may have or and specifications for the animals that i’m watching. Showering them with cuddles and love because all animals love to be pet, if not they at least like a presence near them.

About: Boarding: Dogs must be crate trained and vaccinations up to date. Must be kid friendly and do well with large dogs. I have a large, shaded back yard where we can play with toys or fetch.

I will happily take your dog on walks, play their favorite game and keep a structured routine if needed. Administer topical, injection or oral meds. Meet and greets preferred prior to care. I am currently working from home and have a large shaded yard. Which means potty breaks and outside play and relax time are always available. I will make sure your pets schedule is followed so you can be sure your pet will have fun and be cared for while you are away. My home is doggie safe. Minimalistic feel with little to no clutter. Space for your dog to stretch out and relax. Separate room with crate for sleep and/or alone time if needed. If I leave the house crate trained dogs can safely stay in crate with water and food. Feedings can be done separate if needed. Please bring leash, water and food bowl, and favorite treats. Do not bring toys because they will be enjoyed and destroyed by my dog.

About: Currently, I have two energetic Australian Shepherds.

I am flexible on my availability on Thursday-Fridays since I WFH these days. I have a fenced backyard and 2 friendly Australian Shepherds ready to make new friends!
