About: Hi! My partner and I have been caring for our friend’s dog for several years whenever she travels — and we absolutely love it. That inspired us to start helping other pet parents too! We both grew up with dogs and cats, so caring for animals feels natural to us. We’re detail-oriented, always follow your pet’s routine, and make sure to stick to any special instructions — from feeding to walks and meds. We know how important it is to feel at ease when you’re away, and we’re here to give your pets all the love, attention, and snuggles they deserve. Let us know how we can help — we’d love to meet your furry family member! I work as a face painter at children’s parties, so weekends are usually my busiest time. During those days, my partner is available and happy to look after your pet. On weekdays, I have plenty of free time and would love to spend it caring for animals. I grew up with both dogs and cats, so being around pets feels natural and joyful. We’re both caring, responsible, and truly enjoy spending time with animals. Looking forward to meeting your pet! We live in a second-floor apartment with elevator access — convenient and comfortable for drop-off and pick-up. Our bathroom has a handheld shower head, making it easy to wash your pet if needed during their stay. We don’t have any pets or children, and no other people live in the apartment, so your pet will enjoy a calm, quiet environment with no distractions or stress. It’s perfect for animals who prefer peaceful surroundings. Our neighborhood is very quiet and safe, with great spots for relaxed daily walks. If you’re looking for a calm, cozy home where your pet will get one-on-one attention, we’d love to welcome them!

“Laura is fantastic! Very reliable and truly shows how much she cares for my Cali. She goes above and beyond by playing fetch with her inside after a walk. We are very grateful for her service. Highly recommend her!”


“Melanie has been great as always. It was our second time hiring her. Nikki could not wait to go for a walk with her. Melanie is always punctual, very gentle and always smiling. We will definitely book her again.”


“Recently used Analucia’s dog walking services and we were very satisfied. Analucia was very accommodating and responsive from the start. We arranged a meet and greet and I knew we were in good hands. She was helpful in quickly making adjustments to our original request. Our pup got the walks she needed and we were provided with pics and videos. 5 star experience and we look forward to using her service again.”

“We were very happy with Mandel After being screwed over by wag, he came over and saved the day. Athena looked like she got a good walk and Mandel took a lot of pictures to keep me updated. Definitely using him again!”

About: I’ve had a cat since I was 12! I’ve always been a huge cat lover and understand that they need time and patients to earn their trust. People always trust me with their cats/small dogs as I take care of them as if they were little children, with the love, care, and patients that they deserve! I currently also have a rabbit named Mae who is 2. I grew up with a ton of friends with dogs and my current partner has two dogs! So im always surrounded by them and learn more and more each day about taking proper care. I work full-time, but I am available in the evening (if necessary) and free on Saturdays and Sundays to spend time with your pet or take them out on walks At home, I am always watchful to things that could harm my rabbit/cat. Hide wires so that the rabbit doesnt chew on it and always making sure windows are closed so the cat doesnt run out. Same thing goes with dogs as well, making sure they’re are unleashed only in enclosed areas.

“Alexandria was an absolute gem! She saved us when another walker had to cancel last minute, and was so amazing with our Dolly girl. She was super attentive, and gave Dolly an amazing walk! She gave me so much peace of mind while I’m across the country and my boyfriend was at work for the day. We will absolutely be using her again when we need some help with Dolly. ❤️”


“Ocho loves Thoselin! She’s been very conscientious and reliable, and I trust her in my home and with my baby. Ocho can be anxious and hard to get outside, but she’s been flexible and, judging by the photos she sends, he has a great time with her!”


“Deanna has been working our Luna for 3-4 weeks now. And she absolutely AMAZING!! Our dog responds very well to her, and gets very excited to see her. Deanna is very helpful, kind, patient with us and our Luna. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND her😊”



“If you haven’t booked Irene yet I’d suggest you do so. She’s amazing and it’s clear she absolutely loves animals! She was so awesome with Stoney. Stoney is super energetic and tends to pull on walks. Thanks for your patience! I would absolutely book with her again!!”


About: I have been taking care of my own dogs for over 20 years. In the last 5 years I have decided to walk and care for other doggies. I love animals and enjoy watching them smell everything on our walks. Each animal is different and unique. I am available at any time as I work from home. Walking dogs will fit my schedule as I am available at times most pet owners at work. Since I am only looking to walk dogs I can only rely on the owners instructions on their pets preference. I will walk dogs as their own pace and making sure their safety comes first

About: I've been around pets my entire life, ever since I was a toddler. My parents have expressed the responsibilities of being a pet owner and sitter since we had our first dog. I'm extremely patient with animals! I absolutely adore cats and dogs of any size. I can walk dogs before my shifts! I'm currently a swimming instructor working fulltime. When I'm not working, I'm enjoying the company of my pets. I make sure to feed my cat every night at a consistent time frame. I love to brush and give her scritches constantly! I make sure to change the litter for her regularly for a clean environment for the both of us!

“Catalina is so excellent and took such great care of our Kevin! Our senior frenchie needed to be let out to go potty in the middle of a longer day alone. He usually only goes outside for a few moments to eliminate and rushes to go back inside, but Catalina made sure he had a little midday adventure! So much more than we expected and it was so comforting to know our little guy had a bit of fun! She arrived right on time and sent many pictures and updates! So cute! Thank you, Catalina!!!”


“Amazing as always. My dog had a great time with her, and immediately chugged water when he got home from the walk. He hates drinking water! Glad he got some exercise, or at least as much as his little Chihuahua legs will allow him.”


About: I have 3 years of experience caring for family dogs and truly enjoy spending time with pets. Whether it's walks, playtime, or snuggles, I’ll treat your pup like part of the family! I am currently working 9-5 during the weekdays, and workout after so I would prefer to work mainly during the weekends. I want to find some time to help people's pets during the weekend. I am very cautious about my surroundings. I walked my family dog, and am always aware of when he needs to go out or when he is anxious. I will provide walks and overnight.

“Vanshika took really good care of our dog. She was always on time and shared a lot of photos with us. It was our first experience with Rover and we really loved. Thank you”

We have a one bedroom apartment and give dogs freedom on furniture. We have a 5 year old rescue lab that likes to play with most dogs. He also lets dogs have their space.
