Dog Walking South Park

About: I grew up surrounded by pets, including two German Shepherds and cats, so I’m very comfortable with large, active breeds and senior dogs. I’ve managed everything from puppy energy to the specialized care needed for older pets (my own dog lived to 14). I’m reliable, patient, and will treat your furry friends with the same love and attention I gave my own. I’m a full-time student, but honestly, I study from home most of the time. This means your pup won't be left alone, and I can easily feed them during the day if you are busy at work. I’m also usually home all weekend, so I have plenty of time to hang out and give them my full attention. I usually finish my school on mondays and wednesdays at 3 pm, and on tuesdays, thursdays and fridays at 12 pm! Animals mean a lot to me, and I treat every pet like my own. I'm happy to care for your dogs either at my place or come over to your home, depending on what's best for them. I carefully follow all your rules about routines, love going for long walks, and will make sure they get lots of cuddles and attention.

“Benjamin was great! Very kind and observant. He was great with my dog and tried to keep her away from food scraps along the street. Highly recommend.”

“Carley was so great with my very shy dog. After a couple days they were good friends which doesn’t happen with most people. On top of that she’s super responsive, responsible, and trustworthy. Will be asking her to walk my pup or dog sit the next time we need help with Arya.”

About: Hey there! I am new to Rover but I work in tech and I am fully remote, I love animals and I am great with them, and I am looking to find ways to get out more! I graduated with my Master's from USC last year and now live in the downtown area but I have a car so happy to come to you. I grew up with cats and dogs and I regularly dog sit and cat sit for my friends. I promise your fur baby will be safe and loved with me. Excited to meet my first few pups and cats! I also do house sitting for your pet- If you have reliable WiFi and a small area I can work from I am happy to work remotely from your home to keep your dog or cat company while you are away! Because I am fully remote as an engineer I have a pretty flexible schedule throughout the day. My work schedule comes first but I already take breaks to go on walks so I would like to utilize rover and spend time with some animals during that time every day! In my client's homes I follow all given instructions, and just get to know your animal! I also will leave plenty of time to play with your animal and make sure they are not missing you too much.

“Chao is great with Miko! My dog is pretty shy and is scared of strangers at first. Chao hung out with him and gave him treats until he warmed up to her. Chao is great at following instructions and very sweet to Miko. Miko gets very excited to see her now. I like Chao a lot and will continue to use her!”

“Stephanie went above and beyond! She stopped by the night before our appt. for a meet and greet and to get my keys. She was so sweet and really cool to talk with. The next day she showed right up on time and took my pupper for a better walk than I even give him. She sent lots of pics and communication and she even stayed way longer than she had to. Overall it was a great experience and I will definitely book again soon. I wish there was some sort of tipping option on the app because she seriously deserves it. Thanks again, mama!”

About: Hi! My name is Ammie, and caring for animals has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. throughout my life I’ve opened my home and heart to several cats and dogs, providing them with attentive, loving care. In addition to my personal experience, I worked for four years at a dog daycare, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. This experience taught me how to safely manage groups of dogs, recognize their individual needs, and ensure they felt comfortable, happy, and well cared for. One of my favorite parts of working with animals is building trust and creating meaningful connections with them. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and attention that I would give my own. I’m excited for the opportunity to care for your pets and provide them with a safe, fun, and loving experience while you’re away! I’m currently a part time student and have a flexible work schedule. I’m available anytime during the weekend. We can coordinate ahead of time to see what works best for both of us! I believe every pet deserves individualized care, so I always take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality. In a client’s home, I strive to keep their pet’s schedule as consistent as possible by following feeding instructions, providing fresh water, taking dogs on walks, cleaning up after them, administering basic care when needed, and making sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. For cats, I ensure litter boxes are kept clean, feeding schedules are maintained, and they receive the right balance of interaction and space based on their comfort level. I also provide updates, photos, and communication so pet parents can feel at ease while they’re away.

“Jehiny is an awesome dog walker. My dog is very shy and uncomfortable around strangers but Jehiny was able to win her over in minutes. I highly recommend her services. She communicated with me through the whole experience which was important for me bc of my dog's traumas”

“Had a family emergency come up right before a trip, and Faith seriously came through for me on super short notice. She was prompt, kind, and just a genuinely kind person. She left really thoughtful notes after each walk, sent me pictures of Shamu (who clearly adored her), and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I couldn’t have asked for better. Highly recommend her if you want someone who actually cares about your pet.”

About: I grew up around pets and have spent years casually sitting for friends and family, so I'm comfortable and confident with animals of all sizes, including large dogs. My loft apartment offers a ton of open space, which is great for dogs who need room to move. I am especially good with young, active puppies, and I know how to keep them mentally stimulated and engaged, even on hot days when outdoor time is limited. I work from home, so my schedule is flexible and pet care fits naturally into my day. I am an early riser and happy to take on morning walks, plus I can check in, feed, and play throughout the day rather than squeezing everything into a narrow window. This also means I can keep an eye on pets during hot afternoons and adjust activity levels as needed. I have open weekend availability as well. My loft apartment has plenty of open space, which is ideal for dogs of all sizes, including large breeds, to move around comfortably, and all my plants are pet safe. When pets stay with me, I keep a consistent routine of feeding, walks, and playtime, and I make sure the space is secure and free of hazards before they arrive. For drop-ins and house sitting at a client's home, I follow the owner's existing routine and instructions closely, from feeding schedules to specific safety needs, so the pet's environment stays as familiar and comfortable as possible. On walks, I stay attentive to the dog's pace, the weather, and their comfort level, especially during hot afternoons.

“When on a little trip and need someone to walk my dog and Devon showed up right on time daily. I loved the updates and pictures as well it was great and will use again when needed.”

“Denae was great with my fur babies! I trusted her with Belle’s walks and was able to truly relax while away knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend her!”

About: Dogs bring a lot of joy into my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I like being outside, getting fresh air, and making sure dogs get the exercise and attention they need. I am patient, reliable, and I adjust to each dog’s pace and personality. Some dogs want a long, energetic walk, others prefer something slower and more relaxed. I am happy either way. My goal is always to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and have a good time. I treat every dog like I would my own. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life since I have a dog of my own. My dog has some health conditions and needs extra attention, so I am very used to being patient, attentive, and consistent with care. Because of that, I naturally build my schedule around making sure dogs are comfortable, safe, and getting what they need. Adding other dogs into my routine feels very natural to me, and I am used to planning my day with their needs in mind. I take a calm and attentive approach to caring for dogs. Since my own dog requires special care, I am very mindful of body language, behavior, and subtle cues so I can understand how a dog is feeling and respond appropriately. In a client’s home, I try to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible so the dog feels comfortable and secure. I follow all instructions carefully, whether that is feeding, walks, medication, or just spending time with them. If caring for dogs in my home, I focus on creating a calm and safe environment. I introduce dogs slowly and only if they are comfortable, and I always prioritize safety and supervision. Overall, I am very patient, gentle, and aware, and I treat every dog with the same level of care and attention that I give my own.

“Nicolette is a amazing. She’s professional and respectful and i always trust that my dog is in good hands with her. Could not recommend her more.”

About: Hi I'm Nat! I’m a friendly, reliable pet sitter who's been lucky to care for all kinds of pets—dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, budgies, and rabbits. I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pets, so I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I especially enjoy boarding pets, since it lets me give them extra company, attention, and a warm space where they can settle in and feel at home. My work-from-home lifestyle also allows me to be present throughout the day, giving boarded pets even more dedicated care and supervision. I’m patient with shy pets, active with playful ones, and always respectful of each animal’s routine and personality. Whether you need feeding, walks, playtime, or check-ins, I’ll provide consistent updates and make sure your pets feel loved and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and giving your companions the attention they deserve. I work from home part time with a self-directed and flexible schedule with plenty of time to take care of your babies. I'm an early riser at 5am, perfect for early morning walks and potty breaks. Your pet’s wellbeing is my main focus. I take care to create a safe environment, whether we’re at home or outside, by securing spaces, checking gates, using leashes, and keeping close supervision. I follow all of your guidelines—feeding times, routines, special instructions, and medications—so your pet feels comfortable and cared for just the way they’re used to. If something unexpected happens, I respond calmly, assess what’s needed, and contact you right away while getting veterinary support if required. My goal is to offer a secure, relaxed, and loving experience that helps both pets and owners feel completely confident.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my extensive experience and passion for pets. Having grown up with pets my whole life, I have a deep understanding of their needs and unique personalities. Moreover, my experience volunteering at a doggy daycare has given me a professional edge, allowing me to handle pets of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments with ease. My genuine love for animals shines through in everything I do, making my services truly exceptional. My clients can rest assured that their furry family members will be in capable and caring hands when they choose me as their pet sitter. Pet sitting will fit perfectly into my daily life as I have a dog myself who walks twice a day. I currently do not work from home, but I work 6 hours in the morning and 3 hours in the late evening. I’m usually home in the afternoon to spend quality time with all of my furry friends. As a pet sitter, I prioritize the safety and wellbeing of the pets in my care. I have a secure and pet-friendly home environment, free of any hazards. I will supervise pets during playtime and ensure they are properly fed and hydrated. I have a clear understanding of pet behavior and will provide appropriate exercise and enrichment activities to keep them happy and healthy. I will also follow any specific instructions provided by the pet owners, such as administering medication or special diets.

“Brian was really great with both our dogs. He was completely reliable, diligent, considerate and kind to our big guys. He even rescheduled a walk to later in the day to allow for rain and made sure they got their exercise. Nothing but good things to say! Thanks very much Brian, the whole family is grateful!”
