“Jacquelyn, has been a delight to help me with my boy Charlie. My work days are long and she manages to come share a walk with him. It makes me so happy to know he is being loved upon by someone who loves pets like our family. Thank you!!!”


“I cannot stress enough how above and beyond Kaitlyn goes! Unfortunately she was only able to walk my Zeus for one day before we found out he had a brain tumor. Without knowing this, Kaitlyn arrived early for his walk, spent extra time with him after his walk, and was incredibly communicative. She even interacted with my neighbors who love Zeus and updated me when he got a treat from them. I’m so happy she gave him such a great day before all of this happened. It’s obvious she’s dedicated and truly cares for the animals she sits for!”


“Kenneth was an amazing dog walker for our dog! He was patient and kind to my sometimes timid dog. He was very flexible with our schedule and needs. Our dog Bear always got excited when Kenneth came for his daily walks! I would highly recommend Kenneth for any pet services.”



“Renee is amazing!!! She is always punctual, gives me a full run-down of her time with Rocco, pics included. She knows how to deal with a large dog, especially a 131 lb Rottie! My dog absolutely adores his time with her. She is my life-saver for when I need to travel and to get some work done!! A true dog lover... I would recommend her 1000x over.”


About: I grew up with 2 dogs and 5 cats, not to mention dog sitting for family. From a young age I knew how to feed, bathe, take for walks, give medications, etc. I grew up with one reactive dog, so I would be willing to work with you to try to get your pup to trust me enough to care for them! I have experience giving cats subcutaneous fluids, insulin shots, transdermal creams, and capsules (in churu, my cats personal favorite). I’ve been lucky enough to not need much experience with medical care for dogs, but i have had some experience with giving pills in treats and have been taught how to pill a dog. I would be willing to learn more for your little one if needed! With having so many animals, I’ve seen the aging process more times than I like to count. It’s hard watching your baby become a senior, but I am fully willing and able to proceed with caution and care. I just made the transition to work from home so I have a lot more flexibility in my schedule to help out others in need! I will treat your pet exactly how I treat mine, with love and care. I know how hard it is to leave your pet with someone, especially someone you don’t know very well, but I will be sure to send you updates and follow all the instructions you need me to.

“Chantelle is wonderful with Bodhi. She's very attentive and playful, shows up on time, and even took a last minute appointment. We will continue with her services, as we feel comfortable with the way she nurtures our puppy!:)”


“Natasha has been nothing but lovely since she met Louie. She insisted on coming to meet him and learn more about him before our first walk, and took really great care of him while on the walks because of that. I would highly recommend Natasha - even for last minute walks! She always makes it work and communicates so well!”


“Baeli was incredibly accommodating - when our flight was delayed she made time in her schedule to come back one more time! Will definitely use her again if we can!!!”


“Keasha genuinely loves animals and quickly built a rapport with Lily. She came home grateful for her water bowl and doggie bed. We have found a great dog walker for our fur baby.”


“Abby was great for two early morning walks with my old boy. The weather was not great but he seemed really happy anyway. Abby was also super punctual which was impressive so early in the morning. Ty Abby!”


About: Life-long dog owner and lover with experience pet sitting and walking! My dog has his trick title, and I would love to help your dog learn new things while I spend time with the little buddy. If your dog is friendly, I can even walk them together for some social time if you want! We have a lovely home with lots of toys and comfy places for your pup to hang out, crated or free roaming. I have been a foster dog parent and I have taken care of all types, from little springy poodles to plodding old beagles, to sleepy recovering collies. I have been a go-to pet sitter for friends for their large dogs, too. I swear if you ask me to I will read literal storybooks to your dogs. I will draw you mega cute portraits of your dog. I will take your dog on local adventures. Heck, I will talk to your dog about ethics if you want me to. I will try to train your dog do this trick: Me: "how's life?" Your dog: "ruff" There are infinite possibilities. Your dog and I will star in a montage where you're dog learns to play basketball. I'm so psyched to meet your dog right now. I’m reliable and I have a flexible schedule for the remainder of the summer. I spend most of the day at home, and when I’m stepping out your pup is encouraged to snuggle up on my bed. Some important requirements for dogs who stay at the house! -Dogs must be house trained -Dogs must either be happy in a crate, or trustworthy/non-destructive when not in a crate -Dogs must not show aggression towards other dogs or cats -Dogs must either be under 50 lbs OR dogs must be trained not to jump on people/put teeth on people, or pull uncontrollably on the leash I have a relaxed summer schedule and will spend much of my day with your dog! Dogs go out first thing in the am, get breakfast, have s longer walk in the afternoon, and go out before bed (please specify specific schedule needs if this doesn’t work for your little guy). Usually I incorporate some training during the evenings while we hang out at the house! Pets are generally fed morning and evening. Walks are provided periodically throughout the day. Play time happens a number of times a day, and dogs can play fetch in the yard!

“Maya was an absolute rockstar today with our new doggy Scout. She provided lots of cute pictures and details about how Scout did. She was really responsive from the very beginning about instructions and directions - she even helped reunite a lost neighborhood doggy with their owner! I could not have asked for a better first experience with Rover and especially with Maya!”



“Rich was incredible. Definitely helped me in a pinch with my dog Goomba! He was very responsive and loved all the pictures of my pup with him on their walk. Would certainly use him again in the future and highly recommend. For all kinds of dogs, sometimes can be tough finding your pet as much as you do but Rich certainly has a big affinity for dogs which makes you rest easy while he’s with your pup.”


“Setting things up with Anne was super easy. She took care and consideration of my pups and their needs. Definitely am going to have her walk the pups again when I have the need!”


About: I’ve been an animal lover since I can remember and have lived with pets since I was 12. I’ve been a mom to two dogs and 7 cats. I am a very active person. I love going for walks, going to dog parks, playing with both cats and dogs. I am a mature, responsible professional and I currently have a lot of free time. I would like to spend that time doing what I love. I have one cats now, Rue and Fiver. I fostered Rue in 2020 and decided right away that he belonged with me. For the next 3 years, I continued to foster and then decided Rue needed a permanent companion, so Fiver became the perfect little brother. I am a teacher and I do not work during the months of July and August so am available any time of day. During the school year, I am available weekday afternoons and evenings and on weekends. I cannot offer pet care in my home at this time. I am very careful with all animals and will make sure they are safe and comfortable.

“John is always so reliable, flexible, and kind! He has been really great with our anxious dog, Olive, and was a total pro at helping take care of our new second dog, Basil, as well! We feel so lucky to have met John and highly recommend him!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since i was about 7 I had a senior dog! From there I’ve been taking care of different animals a lot! I just graduated high school currently waiting for jobs to open up! So this will be nice to experience for me! Plus I love animals. I do have a fenced yard I have two fur babies of my own two cats! But they are of course indoors! I would love to take dogs on walks.

Rikki D.
“As a professional dog trainer I don’t give recommendations for other dog professionals lightly! But I can confidently say that Rikki is your best choice for your dog. They have experience with fostering dogs of different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. Their own dog has titled in tricks due to their diligent training. And they’ve successfully worked with and trained other species as well including a spicy Sun Conure! On top of their phenomenal animal skills they’re also a people person. Plenty of people like dogs but you need someone who’s communicative, reliable, and personable. You’re definitely in the right place if you want only the best for your dog.”

Silverlake dog parents share their Rover experiences
From the very first meeting, I knew my dog was in good hands. Sylvia showed up prepared, asked thoughtful questions, and even took notes to make sure she understood my dog’s routine and quirks. That level of care really stood out to me. Since then, she’s been amazing—reliable, kind, and clearly someone who loves what she does. My dog absolutely adores her and gets so excited when Sylvia comes by. I feel really lucky to have found her. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dog walker who truly goes above and beyond!

Kenneth was an amazing dog walker for our dog! He was patient and kind to my sometimes timid dog. He was very flexible with our schedule and needs. Our dog Bear always got excited when Kenneth came for his daily walks! I would highly recommend Kenneth for any pet services.

AMAZING dog walker!! Keri took my last minute request and kept me updated the entire time. Keri is prompt, reliable and trustworthy. It was such a comfort knowing Leroy was in such great hands. I would HIGHLY recommend Keri and her services to all my friends and family with furry pets!
