“Natalie is great. She goes above and beyond to help out and find the best options for Taco to fully enjoy his walks. I never used this app or a dog walker in the past. Natalie has given me the peace of mind and trust that my baby Taco is in good hands. We love her like our family. Thank you!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of different ages and personalities. I currently have two spayed female cats, ages 5 and 10 both are good with other animals, and previously cared for our family Morkie for many years who has since passed. I’ve also helped care for my dad’s Golden Retriever with walks, feeding, playtime, and daily routines. Being around animals has always been a meaningful part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. ✨ I work from home and have a flexible schedule through my small business, which makes it easy for me to provide attentive and reliable pet care throughout the day. 🐾 I focus on creating a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel safe and relaxed. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any specific routines their pet is used to. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the space and the pet’s routine to help minimize stress while their owner is away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured and connected throughout the stay. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I always approach them with patience, attention, and gentle care.
“Zarah is punctual, communicates effectively, and keeps me informed about my dogs’ walks. I can clearly see her dedication and care for my pets. I highly recommend her to look after your pets too!”

“We will continue to use Danny’s services & recommend him as he always comes through for us & takes great care of our senior pups! Thank you for the hour drop in/walk today, Danny!! We very much appreciate all of the photos too!!”


“Devin has been an incredible dog charmer! Maddix took to him in minutes. He's courteous, flexible, knowledgeable and he was there for Maddix at the last minute. You are missing out if you don't give Devin a try! Thank you Devin for helping me out, especially at the last minute!”


“Brook was fantastic! I needed last minute help 2 days in a row and she was a lifesaver. She walked Blu in different routes and was clearly patient for stops to smell along the way. Brook also made sure Blu had plenty of water before leaving. 10/10. I would love the opportunity to work with her again!”

“Dwight is remarkable! He treated my pup Pronto as if he was his very own. They had the best walks and had so much fun. I looked forward to receiving Pronto's report card everyday. The pictures were also star quality. Communication with Dwight was also a breeze. I can't recommended him enough. Thanks a ton!”


“Brittni is so accommodating with my schedule, which helps me a ton and she is soooooo good with my active and strong dog. Highly recommend. She is my first go to when I need help.”

“Hailey was wonderful and our dog loved her. Hailey was flexible and responded quickly as our walk times changed while on vacation. Took great care of our King Charles. Definitely will look for Hailey if vacationing in the area again. Thank you Hailey!”

“We had a great experience with Julia. She communicated well, was reliable and kind. She was great with our pup and gave her the care we needed. Would hire again in a heartbeat.”


About: I’ve had all kinds of pets growing up through childhood, always had dogs and cats especially. Worked at a vet clinic for 2 years, loved it and miss it. Took courses on animal care and calming while working in the clinic. I’m currently working at Amazon as a flex employee, right now I’m only working 1-2 days a week there. I make my own schedule there and I plan to make my pet sitting schedule a priority. I won’t be able to bring any pets to my house for the time being, but going to houses I love playing with all the pets:) Always have had the biggest love for pets.

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs for almost 7 years and have 8 years of overall experience caring for pets. I’ve babysat my neighbors’ dogs many times, and they trust me to give their pets lots of love, attention, and care while they’re away. I always send picture updates so owners can feel comfortable knowing their dogs are happy and safe. I also have a friendly dog of my own who gets along well with other dogs, and with permission, I can bring my dog to interact and play with them to help keep them active and social. I’ve been an animal lover since I was in 3rd grade, and some people even call me a “dog whisperer” because animals naturally seem to trust and connect with me. I truly believe dogs are one of the most loyal and loving companions a person can have, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. I am currently home from college for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I am available most weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and overnight care. I have years of experience caring for dogs and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I have friendly dogs for social interaction if wanted, can crate dogs if needed, and always follow owners’ instructions carefully. I provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured while away.
About: Come stay with us at Lola’s (Grandma’s) house! I’m semi-retired and I share my home with my daughter, Christina and my two teenage grandchildren (13 and 16). Together, we provide a loving, active, home away from home for your sweet pups. We love walking and being outdoors and treat all fur babies like family! We have a large home with a fenced yard in a beautiful, dog friendly neighborhood. The whole family loves to help with our furry friends so your precious pup will rarely (if ever) be alone. We have separate spaces for resting and mealtimes and can accommodate crate trained and non crate trained pets. We know that meeting new friends can be intimidating so all doggie introductions are supervised, in the backyard with just one or two other dogs at a time. We have extensive experience with senior and special needs pets and are comfortable administering medication, feeding on a specific schedule and can even administer SubQ fluids. Please note that there is an $5/day additional charge for medication administration and/or special dietary prep. My dogs are my babies! I love to stay active and enjoy walking the neighborhood and working in our fenced-in yard with my pups by my side. My daughter and my two teenaged grandchildren enjoy lending a hand so your pet will always have someone to shower them with attention while they’re with us. We offer a loving, family environment with lots of exercise, attention and care. We have a fenced in yard and a dog friendly neighborhood for walking along with plenty of space in our home to safely care for your precious pup. Our family LOVES all animals and we can devote lots of time to love and care for your fur baby.
“I just moved to a new neighborhood so had to find a new daily walker for my baby. I’m so glad we found Skyler! I feel like my girl is well taken care of when they’re together. She is a great communicator, goes above and beyond, is very reliable and friendly. I’m going to stick with Skyler’s services for as long as possible!”

About: I have always loved animals and I have some experience in walking and sitting/watching animals for neighbors, family, etc. Your pets’ well-being is my top priority! I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, especially senior dogs as I have one myself. I’m currently a college student attending UCF with classes that are scheduled every Thursday 9 am to 5 pm. Schedule is always flexible though as I want to provide as much convenience for you and your pet as possible ! I do not currently house pets in my own home but I would love to come drop in and take care of your pets and ensure they are their best !

“Andrew was so amazing and caring with my little Flynn! He’s still a puppy so he required lots of patience which Andrew provided! I am so thankful I have someone I can trust to take care of Flynn for me, will be using again in the future! Thanks Andrew!! ?”

South Orange dog parents share their Rover experiences
I had booked Rafaela last minute and fortunately she was available! I provided instructions on how to get to my place and where everything was, and she was able to navigate well. She communicated with me prior and during and took sweet photos of my dog. Would recommend and book her again!

Maria has taken care of my pup countless time over the past year. She is incredibly professional, communicative, and trustworthy. I have not once ever had to worry if my pup was good hands. Truly 10/10 would recommend to anyone needing someone to look after their furry friend!
Loved Skyler! Super nice and responsible, she took care of my big Goldendoodle and, despite the bad weather, she did great and never missed checking on my dog at my house. On my return, my dog looked happy and got super excited when she stopped by to bring the house keys, which told me he loved her as well… that says it all!!! Will definitely use her again and recommend🫶🏻.
