“Fiona is amazing! I have two older dogs, one who gets very nervous when I leave - and she took amazing care of them! She sent me constant pictures and kept in touch with me throughout the day. My dogs were so happy and well cared for when I got home. She used the Rover app so I always knew when she was at the house and what she was doing. I highly recommend Fiona! You will not be disappointed!”

About: I’ve had my dog for almost 7 years and now have two dogs. I grew up with dogs and they are my passion. Im a nurse getting my masters and have some time to take care of other fur babies.

About: Hi! I’m a proud dog mom to two lovable Frenchies—a sweet senior and a playful goofball—who’ve taught me patience, care, and how every pup has their own vibe. I’ve been the go-to sitter for friends and family for years, helping with walks, feedings, playtime, and cuddles. I don’t offer boarding, but I happily care for pets in their own home, where they feel most safe and relaxed. With a flexible schedule, I’m available for drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays in your home to keep your pet happy, comfy, and cared for. From quick visits to longer stays, I’ll follow their routine, offer companionship, and make sure they get all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most at ease. I follow their usual routine—walks, meals, playtime, or just being a calm presence—so they stay comfortable while you’re away. I’m mindful of your space and focused on making sure your pet feels safe, content, and cared for the entire time.
About: Like a lot of people, I’ve had dogs my whole life. Pomeranians, Rottweilers, Golden Retrievers, Cane Corsos and now I have my English Bulldog, Puck, who is my whole world. I know what it’s like to feel nervous about my dog being taken care of by someone new, and I never want anyone to feel that way when they book with me! I’m a student, so I’m available during hours many people usually work. I’m also very free on weekends, so if you take a quick trip I can stop by. I always do what the pet parent asks. If your dog likes walks short or long, I can do that. I will make sure everything you want and need is taken care of regarding your furry friend, and if there’s any special requests just let me know when booking!
About: What sets me apart is the personal connection I build with every dog I walk. I focus on safe, one-on-one or small group walks tailored to each pup’s personality and energy level. With lots of love, attention, and play, your dog gets more than just a walk — they get a daily adventure with someone who truly cares. Pet care is the heart of my daily routine. Each day is shaped around giving pets the love, structure, and activity they need to thrive. From early morning walks to midday play sessions and evening check-ins, caring for animals keeps me grounded, active, and connected. It’s not just a task — it’s a rhythm I love. In My Home: Pets staying with me enjoy a safe, clean, and cozy environment where they’re treated like part of the family. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and rest, keeping their routines as close to home as possible. I ensure they get daily walks, fresh water, healthy meals, and lots of love — all in a stress-free space where they can relax and feel at home. In Clients’ Homes: When caring for pets in their own home, I follow their usual routine closely to keep them comfortable and happy. I handle feeding, walking, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of affection — just like you would. I also keep your home tidy, bring in mail or packages, and keep you updated with photos and notes for peace of mind while you’re away.

Shady Banks dog parents share their Rover experiences
There’s nobody else we would rather have take care of our babies. Anastasiia & Vadim are the unequivocally the best! We actively recommend their service to our friends that might be traveling. Both are knowledgable, kind and accommodating; they are the only people we regularly trust to watch over our kids while we’re out of town.
Christina is the very best! She was willing to introduce herself to my furbabies in a neutral location before the booking began and enthusiastically assured me that she would be a great choice! She even brought little treats that my dogs loved! Christina was on time for the scheduled walks, prompt in responding to my text messages, and always left a helpful description of her time with my two dogs. I felt at ease and comfortable being out of the state knowing that Christina would be looking after the pups!
I had a fantastic experience with Agustina! She was available on short notice and even offered a meet and greet beforehand, which gave me great peace of mind. During the visit, she took my dog Arya on her full walk (no shortcuts!), sent plenty of updates and adorable photos, and left a very detailed report afterward. It was clear Arya received so much love and attention—I felt completely worry-free. I will definitely be rebooking Agustina for future visits and recommending her to my friends. Highly recommend!
Sean’s been great with my shepherd boy! He’s great at communicating, has been flexible and accommodating with us, and really listens about care needs (our dog is a bit higher maintenance). And despite my boy’s general aloofness and disinterest in making friends, he seems to already like Sean.
Daniel was beyond great! He really made us feel at ease when leaving our dog for a few days. Daniel was in constant communication and sent over videos along with pictures to keep us updated about our dog, Leo. Definitely plan on re-booking his services again. Highly recommend!
