“So grateful for Natalie! She got our guy out for a long afternoon walk. Mac was super comfortable with her and she was very communicative and prompt.”


“Lizz saved the day for us! We had a family emergency come up and had to leave town last minute. Lizz was able to cover all the walks in our absence. She gave us great feedback and won over our shy pup. Highly recommend.”


“Jean was so prompt with responding to my walk request! She was so professional and just an all-round bubbly person. Will definitely be reaching out to her again with help in caring for our pup!”


About: I have had pets for as long as I can remember and have taken care of dogs and cats of all ages and breeds since I was a little girl. I'm in college now and live apart from my pets so I would love to use my experience to take care of your pet! I can take care of your pet whenever works best for you! I'm on summer break right now so whenever I am needed I can be there. My apartment doesn't allow dogs but I would be more than willing to pet sit in your home and take care of other duties in the house. I can also walk your dogs through the neighborhood as needed.

About: I began volunteering at my city's animal shelter at the age of thirteen, dog walking, and I quickly began taking on more responsibilities at the shelter from there. By the time I was fifteen, I was volunteering in vet services, helping with adoption events, and doing critter care, where I socialized and took care of small animals like rabbits, rats, guinea pigs, and mice. During my time as a volunteer, I began a veterinary assisting program. I spent five days a week providing care to dogs, cats, horses, and rodents while learning proper medical procedures. Within that care, I attentively followed tailored feeding and kenneling instructions meant to keep the animals safe and healthy. Through my time at my tech school, I gained my OSHA 10 healthcare-focused certification, my HIV, Bloodborne Pathogen certification, and I graduated with my veterinary assisting certification. After graduating, I began working at my city's animal shelter as a Student Day Laborer and Veterinary Assistant, as well as pet sitting for people living in and around my city. At the animal shelter, I handled dogs with various behavioral challenges, including nipping, jumping, barking, pulling, lunging, and multiple kinds of reactivity. I maintained a clean and tidy environment by cleaning up many kinds of bodily fluids and parasites to ensure the comfort and health of the animals. During my time there, I fostered several dogs from the euthanasia list to provide them with proper enrichment and training to make them less frustrated and more adoptable. I have experience providing medical care and enrichment to puppies as young as three weeks old and senior dogs. I am a college student, but I am currently on summer break, so I am available every day except for Thursdays and Fridays. I am very flexible with my schedule when it comes to work and am willing to work with people on timing. I am capable of providing medical care and following specific feeding instructions that have been provided to me by the owner. I provide appropriate enrichment and exercise for different age ranges and breeds.

About: I have experience in vet med, so I will be able to keep a detail-oriented eye on your pet's health and wellbeing. If it comes to it, I can take your beloved companion to the vet clinic while you're out of town and see to any at-home care they need, no problem. I currently make my income entirely through app-based freelance work, making it easy to interweave schedules. I can check in on your pet, go out and work for 2-3 hours, then come back again. ADHD tendencies serve me well in this situation-- I can focus on a show, a book, or working on my laptop, while still being peripherally aware of what your pet is doing, and taking time to check in and give lots of scritches and belly-rubs. I live in a shared housing situation, so I have plenty of experience leaving an environment that is not my own exactly as I found it.

“Paulina was great. She was as very responsive when we reached out and was willing to make changes to times as we needed. We would definitely recommend her to others.”


About: I have grown up with dogs and cats, and I have a cat of my own! I have always loved taking dogs out on walks and snuggling with cats. I have experience taking care of dogs and cats, and the odd reptile or bird, and I love getting the opportunity to gain more experience! I am available weekdays and weekends currently, and when school starts in late September, I will be available only on weekends and weekdays after 4pm. I live in an apartment complex that has a fence around the entire property. There’s a courtyard for dog walking/relief, and my apartment is pet friendly since I own a cat of my own. I walk dogs often, and feed my pets on every morning and night. I have a harness for my cat since he likes going outside, and I know not all cats like that. I give plenty of attention to my pets, and I might spoil them once in a while!

“Maddy has been an amazing addition to my busy routine! Highly recommend her. My dog doesn't usually like or trust people off of her first meeting, but she instantly fell in love with Maddy.”


About: I have taken care of my two cats for a few years and grew up on a farm taking care of all kinds of animals with the same love and care as a house pet. I love all animals no matter their needs or personalities and am dedicated to taking care of your four legged family member. I am currently employed part time with a very flexible schedule and am therefore able to prioritize your beloved pet in my day to day. The only times I am unavailable are between the hours of 6-8 Tuesday and Thursday. I feel very comfortable crating if needed, clipping nails, and running with dogs to give these guys the enrichment and care they need. I have a bike to quickly access your homes when walks are needed.

“My dog Arthur is always so excited to see Stone! They have developed a trusting bond which I really appreciate since Arthur is an anxious lad, and he's always nice and tired when they get done!”


“Caitlyn was awesome! I especially appreciate her communication- my dog has had gastrointestinal issues since he was bitten by a rattlesnake 9 months ago, and I've turned into quite the helicopter parent. With Caitlyn, I knew where my dog was at all times, which was reassuring, and when I came home, it was clear that he had had a good time with her. Thanks, Caitlyn!”



“Wendy was so accommodating and helpful for our last minute need. She was so awesome with our pups and we had full confidence in her care. She was a great communicator. We would use her again next time we are in Bellingham!”

South Hill dog parents share their Rover experiences
Deanna was amazing with watching our girls. During our meet and greet I could tell she was a perfect fit and she exceeded expectations. She checked in continuously throughout her time with our girls, sent photos, and took them to their favorite spots! We look forward to booking with Deanna again in the future.

Thank you to Meilin for her patience with our loving yet stubborn pup. She is always so kind, loving and sweet to him and takes the time to let him warm up to her. I have seen so much improvement already in our doggies attitude towards walks and I owe it all to Meilin! She also always sends updates and photos!

It was such a pleasant experience interacting with Natalie. She responded immediately to my first message for information, and every message after, which is an important indicator of reliability! She is very kind and friendly and my pup took to her right away at the meet and greet, and vice versa. Their first walk was a good long one with plenty of pictures and then feedback. Very happy with our experience.
