“first time using rover and had a nice experience! Mackenzie was nice, on time and took many pictures of their walk:)”
“Jane is absolutely fantastic, and if she’s available she’s the one you want to choose! She gives her undivided attention and care to my dog, and since my pup is older - Jane is mindful of her energy levels. She was also incredibly patient and understanding with my dog who tends to get nervous when I’m not around. I also 100% trust her - which makes a huge difference in “dropping in real quick” vs needing to be there to hand my dog off to her. BOOK HER SHE’S AMAZING! 😊”

About: I’ve always had animals as part of my household growing up, and have become comfortable working alongside a wide variety, especially as I have gained experience working in a pet store as well.

About: Hello! So I've had over 16 years of experience with dogs from having my own fur friends. I walk and feed my dogs regularly and have helped to potty train them. I've had dogs as small as a chihuahua to as big as a boxer, but have helped sit my friends dogs that are much bigger. I have experience dog/house siting as well as dealing with dogs of different sizes and temperaments. I am also accustomed to taking dogs a shower. I love taking my dogs to dog beach or dog parks so they can socialize with other dogs and learn to be social. Spoiling my dogs is one of my favorite things to do and I absolutely love petting them and showing them love constantly. I work from home so I am able to check in on my dogs and yours often if need be. They go walking daily and socialize often if that what you like for your dog as well I have a fenced yard with two friendly dogs who can keep your fur baby company. Plenty of space to run for your baby :)

“My family and I highly recommend Alexis and Adam as dog walkers! They walked my two German Shepherd mixes early in the morning for 16 consecutive days for an hour each while we were on vacation. Always on time, always submitting report cards with photos and the route they walked. On top of that, my dogs, who are rescues with shyness or aggression toward strangers AND severe dog reactivity on walks, LOVED Lex and Adam! As a professional dog trainer and walker myself, I’m extremely careful with people who interact with my dogs, and Lex and Adam exceeded my expectations! It’s clear to me that they take caring for their clients’ dogs seriously and both are extremely nice and personable. Thank you Lex and Adam!!”
About: Family and friends have entrusted me to watch their pets as I have grown up with them myself. We have a dog and cat at home, both of whom are my top priority. I enjoy walking, playing, and most importantly, giving them the attention they so much deserve. Because I am a full-time college student, I am primarily available during scheduled holiday breaks and in the summer. It’s summer time!! While you are away on some much needed vacation, I’m here ready to answer the call to take care of your pets. At your home, I am flexible with your pet’s needs. Whether outside or in, I can be your dog’s partner in crime (while safety comes first) and keep them company.

Since my guys are little, Savelina welcomes them to her lap on the couch when relaxing or TV watching, which makes them very happy. When I return, they are somewhat reluctant to leave the lap of luxury and come back home with me!”
