“Stephanie was great with my dog Tate, who can be very fussy at times. But they had a great walk along with some furry friends. She also was able to help us out on such short notice!”
“It was our first time having Hanaya help us out and she was upbeat and positive from the beginning. She cared for my two CKCS’s like they were her own. She shows a true love for dogs and her experience with them shows. I highly recommend her!”
“Rosa is an amazing dog walker. My Nela is pretty strong and isn’t a fan of dogs. Rosa did an amazing job at handling her but also being very sweet. The photos were quite adorable and leaving feedback on her potty and what she did was very helpful. Thanks again !”
About: With years of hands-on experience, I've cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, beginning with a 125-lb St. Bernard that was the ultimate lap dog. My current partner in crime is Jett, a charming rescue mix of Wheaton, Portuguese Water Dog, and a few surprises. Whether your dog calls a spacious home or a cozy apartment their domain, I'm well-versed in providing attentive care. I'm eager to fulfill your pet's unique needs, offering services from medication administration to invigorating walks, fun playdates, safe transportation, and enjoyable outings to the park. Cheers! David I am fortunate to have the flexibility of working from home, which enables me to manage my schedule effectively and avoid any overlap between Rover commitments and work. I have a friendly dog to keep your pup happy. I live in a townhouse in a community with lots of space to have safe walks
“Great first walk!”
“We’ve just finished our 2nd week with Katie! And it’s been amazing. She’s wonderful with my little pup and gives the best updates. We’re excited to continue using Katie.”
About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life since childhood, and I’ve taken care of breeds ranging from Pitbulls to Chihuahuas. Every dog I’ve encountered or owned I’ve created a bond with and taking care of animals is something that I’m passionate about and important to me. I’ve owned 2 dogs who I took care of until they were seniors, and they had conditions including diabetes and other physical problems. They were not able to basic tasks on their own, so having to take care of their needs was a must and daily task of mine. I’m working part-time in the evenings, so mornings and afternoons is when I will be openly available. I am off on Thursdays and Fridays so I am free at any time. In my home, I do not have any dogs or cats at the moment, but I do have a pet turtle and snake that I take care. If there’s any case where I have to bring a dog home, I do have a crate and toys from my late dog that I still own. I also live near various parks with privacy where I can take the dogs for walks and playtime.
“We couldn’t be more grateful for Stefanie! She has been a true life-saver, especially after we had our baby and needed extra help. Knowing we could count on her to take care of our dog, Astro, gave us such peace of mind during a busy and exhausting time. Astro absolutely loves his walks with her, and it’s clear Stefanie treats him like her own. She’s always on time, incredibly professional, and so caring. We feel so lucky to have found someone we trust completely with Astro. Stefanie truly goes above and beyond, and we can’t recommend her highly enough!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, and now have a cat of my own. I have helped friends and family with dog walking and cat sitting for many years and love spending time with animals. I am a nurse and have experience with medication and insulin administration for pets. You can trust that I will care for your pet as if they are my own. I work 3 days a week so am looking to pet sit/walk dogs on my days off! My schedule will be updated accordingly. I would love to spend my time off with your pet! I will love your pet like they are my own and will keep them safe and happy! I’d be happy to do whatever your pet needs to feel comfortable.
“Melissa was wonderful with my dog! She is such a loving spirit and I knew Micah was cared for during his time with her! She was super patient and caring even when my dog was overly energetic and hyper.”
About: Hi all! I am dog walker/sitter with 10+ years of experience - Every size, breed, and temperament. I am a Dog Mom who treats every Dog like they are my own. I'm highly skilled and knowledgeable regarding different breeds, difficult pup behavior, and how best to not only keep them safe - But HAPPY and LOVED.

From the moment we met her we loved her - She is a true animal lover and knows what she’s doing. She sent updates everyday with a couple of photos which put my wife at ease and just gave me a smile while we were in the Bahamas. We were able to relax knowing our pets were in great hands. We will definitely use her again. We can’t say enough about Sarah.” - Michael & Betsy I am open and Flexible. I have available Weekdays, Weeknights, and Weekends.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since having our first family dog when I was little. I trained our family dog to not only have discipline, but also do tricks! I recently trained my friend’s dog to do some fun tricks too. I love to give the pups all the attention and patience they deserve. I shared a cat all through college with my roommate and am familiar with cats needs. I currently have Friday-Sunday off so I’d love to board or do walks on the weekend. I’m also available in the mornings and evenings if walks are needed then. I live close to lots of walking paths and dog parks. It’s a great area to go on long walks or to the dog parks!
About: I have had dogs my whole life. We recently lost our dog this winter and with our work schedules and emotional healing, while we love having dogs around we’re not in the place be dog parents again just yet. About 50% of my job involves traveling and my boyfriend works long hours so leaving a puppy or dog for that long would be hard for us at this point in time. When I am home, I work remotely & I would love to take care of someone else's dog while they were away as if it was my own! It would allow me to share all of the love and care I currently have to offer a dog & offer help to those who need theirs taken care of. While my job is corporate, I do not work a normal “9-5” ever so my flexibility varies by the week - but it gives me plenty of time and ability to play with your pup ! Our apartment has been fully dog-proofed as we had our dog when we moved into our current home. If there were any other precautions you’d need me to take as a one-off just let me know & I’d be happy to accommodate!
About: Ive taken care of dogs for 4 years in a row. Neighbors, friends and family members have relied on me to walk, teach new tricks, bath and feed their pets because they know I have a lot of patience and the love I’ve for animals. I’ve a part time job as a bartender, but I also take care of pets every day because it is also part of my daily routine. I live in a really safe and quiet neighborhood, a great place to walk dogs around and a park nearby where I take them to play every day in the morning.
About: All my life I have grown up with puppies, in addition to taking care of them, I am aware of their special needs, medicines, food, walks and more, I am trained so that your dogs at home can have a daily and healthy routine I am usually available from Monday to Friday from 8am if they are weekends or holidays I would work them with an advance notice to check my schedule In my home I always try to have your areas of your special needs 100% clean and disinfected, your cups for your food I clean them every two days in addition to walking them at least once a week, I have two kittens however I always try that they can be away from home for a while with proper care
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, from hamsters to rabbits to cats and dogs! I’ve always been an animal lover who wants to keep your pet safe while you’re away. Comfortable with big and small dogs with any energy level! I can teach basic tricks but willing to try anything with your doggo! I work full time but am nearly fully remote (1-2 days in office but flexible). I’m able to take breaks for walks or cuddles at any time ! I’ll follow your direction on your pets safety but I have a pet friendly apartment with a dog run and wash station if they are staying with me!

“Kelsea stayed with my two senior kitties and they immediately loved her. It’s important to note than one of my boys is on the spicier side and normally hisses at people that get too close. Tank did not hiss at Kelsea! I felt very comfortable with her watching my furbabies. I would recommend her to others (cats and dogs alike)!”
