Dog Walking Stanford Estates

“Great as always!”

Michael D.

About: I have cared for just about every animal type - dogs, cats, rodents, fish, and a few exotic reptiles and amphibians. In that scope, I’ve managed surprise litters, caring for young and senior pets with all their needs. I’m currently working from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I will have my elementary age kids and our senior dog with me every other week, and we’re unfortunately allergic to cats. I have a large fenced in yard, plus my own dog every other week. She is a bit picky about other dogs depending on their size, age, and personality.

“Thank you Ashley!! You were always there and Emmett was excited to go for his walk. I appreciate you for doing this while I was unable to do so because of surgery. I’m sure we will be seeing you again in the future!”

“Did a great job walking our pups! They had an accident and she went above & beyond to clean it up. Would definetly recommend and will use again!”

“I had a fantastic experience with Brooke through Rover. She was incredibly responsive and even accommodated a same-day booking, which was a huge help. She bonded quickly with my dogs and made us feel completely at ease. Her professionalism and clear communication stood out from start to finish. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy care for their pet.”

“I cannot say enough good things about the care that Steve has provided for my dog. As a dog lover himself he treats my furry family as if he was one if his own.”

About: Previously, I worked as a Veterinary Pathology Technician. This position allowed me to pay attention to certain changes in ability and health. I have experience in dog/cat boarding, administering pet meds, bathing small/large dogs , and clipping nails. I am able to provide meals 3 times per day. I am available on the afternoons of weekdays, weekends, and holidays to provide loving care. I allow a sense of freedom and opportunity to roam around the area of the home or play while continuously making sure your pet is safe.

“Ali was absolutely INCREDIBLE. They consistently went above and beyond to help out while we were away. They were very informative about every aspect of their time with Keegan. We will definitely be rebooking!”

“Elizabeth saved the day and went above and beyond for us! My dog ended up needing special care and medication after we booked with her, and she loved on my girl and helped me out during a very busy work week. She is kind, patient and trustworthy and an asset for anyone needing assistance with their baby.”

About: Caring for others has been a meaningful part of my life for as long as I can remember—both people and animals. I’ve cared for my own pets, dog-sat for family and friends, rescued lost pets and helped reunite them with their owners, and have always been drawn to animals who need a little extra care and patience. I currently have a nine-year-old Beagle/Toy Poodle mix named Millie and a cat named Josie, who is about six years old. I rescued Josie as a stray when she was sick and in need of care. I took her in, helped her get healthy, patiently earned her trust, and ultimately decided to make her part of my family. Her journey has given me firsthand experience with cats who may be fearful, shy, anxious, temperamental, or slow to trust, and taught me how important patience, understanding, and respecting an animal’s boundaries can be. I’m comfortable with animals of different sizes, personalities, energy levels, and temperaments. I pay close attention to animal body language and behavior and can recognize the signs that a dog or cat is comfortable, fearful, overstimulated, anxious, playful, or welcoming. I believe understanding those signals is one of the most important parts of caring for an animal because every pet communicates differently. My caregiving experience also extends to people. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and children, helped my mother with babysitting while growing up, and have provided care and companionship to elderly individuals. My professional caregiving background also includes working as an obstetric technician, caring for newborns, young children, and mothers following delivery, as well as caring for elderly patients, including those who needed comfort, companionship, and attentive support. These experiences have taught me to be patient, observant, dependable, gentle, and attentive to the needs of those in my care. Whether I’m caring for a person or an animal, I understand that they may not always be able to tell me exactly what they need. I’ve learned to pay attention, recognize changes in behavior, and respond with compassion. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else can be difficult. I take that trust seriously. I’m comfortable following your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and giving them the patience and space they need to feel comfortable. I also believe in keeping owners informed and communicating if I notice anything unusual about their pet. Most importantly, I don’t see pet sitting as simply “watching an animal.” I see it as caring for a member of someone’s family. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and genuinely cared for while you’re away—and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. My schedule is flexible because I do contract work, allowing me to focus on pet visits and walks. I’m happy to work with clients’ schedules and do my best to accommodate their routines, work hours, and pets’ individual needs. I prioritize safety, trust, and making every pet feel comfortable in my care. I have experience with dogs and cats of different sizes, personalities, and temperaments, including shy, anxious, fearful, energetic, and more independent animals. I pay close attention to body language and behavior so I can recognize when a pet is comfortable, overwhelmed, nervous, or needs space. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or visiting a client’s home, I will respect their routines, boundaries, environment, and individual needs. My goal is to provide calm, attentive, compassionate care while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are safe and well cared for.

About: I have loved and owned a variety of dogs at all ages since I was a child. I currently have one dog. He is a well-rounded pup, playful with energetic friends and gentle with younger/older friends. We have a fenced-in backyard and a large comfy couch! I have a fenced in back yard and a playful pup of my own to keep your pup(s) company! I can also crate if you like. I am currently a full time teacher with open weekends and nights until the summer. In the summer I am fully dedicated to my Rover clients! I have a small fenced in backyard and can, and prefer, to crate in case I can not directly supervise all dog play and feedings.

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was younger. I have had cats, dogs and tarantulas, so I am used to a wide range of animals. I live alone and work a typical 9-5 job as an attorney in town, and I do not have any pets of my own. I always pet-sit for my friends' cats and dogs, so I would love to do it with Rover. I love to play games with the animals to keep them stimulated. I also enjoy walking animals and simply being with them. I am very good with both dogs and cats.

“Let my pup out last minute which was a life saver. Very communicative which is easing! Thank you! Will definitely be booking again”

About: I've cared for cats and dogs with all kinds of personalities, so I’m very attuned to what each individual pet needs to feel safe and relaxed. I take time to learn your pet’s routines, quirks, and preferences, and I follow your instructions closely so their day feels as “normal” as possible while you’re away. I’m patient with shy or anxious pets and gentle with seniors who need a slower pace, extra potty breaks, or help with stairs. In the past, I have fostered a pup who needed purposeful walks and extra mental stimulation and also a sweet 17-year-old cat that needed capsule medication twice a day. You can also expect clear communication from me every visit, with updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing and can travel with peace of mind. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule. I ensure that all visits and walks are planned in my calendar well in advance so that your pet gets consistent attention and isn’t squeezed in “when I can.” Unless mentioned, I’m available for morning, midday, and evening walks or drop-ins on most weekdays. I keep weekends open for extra visits or travelers who are out of town. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep everything as close to 'normal' as possible for them and for you. I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications or special routines. I take time to give your pet the attention and reassurance they need and stick to the schedule they’re used to so they feel safe and comfortable. I also treat your home with respect. I wipe paws if needed, keep food and water areas tidy, lock up carefully, and double-check doors, crates, and gates before I leave. After each visit, I send a quick update and photos so you know how your pet is doing and how the visit went.

About: I have professional experience caring for dogs through Wag, PetSmart, and Petco. I worked with Wag for two years providing dog walking and pet care services similar to Rover, and I also worked as a professional bather at both PetSmart and Petco. In addition, I have experience training German Shepherds and Belgian Malinois in Schutzhund-style training, which gave me hands-on experience working with strong, intelligent, high-energy dogs. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding, exercise, training, and care routines, and I take safety and each dog’s individual temperament seriously. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, structure, or simply a comfortable place to stay, I’ll treat them with the same attention and care I would expect for my own pet. I’m available throughout the week and can provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible so their stay feels familiar and comfortable. Your dog’s safety and comfort come first. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and experience handling dogs with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels. I follow feeding, medication, exercise, and crate instructions carefully, and I’m comfortable maintaining structure for dogs that thrive on a routine.

About: I am an animal lover and have over 33 years of experience! I grew up having dogs and cats. I have had 3 of my own dogs and 2 cats, 4 of which were strays. I have trained all of my furry friends and even helped my Boston Terrier Mix have puppies. I have also cared for elderly pets and so I understand what it takes to give them the love and treatment they need in their more frail years. I currently have very flexible hours and can take care of your furry friend whenever you need me. I had a career in Nursing, but I am currently not practicing so I am free to help you out with your needs. I am very reliable and trustworthy. I have always had pets in my home, but take great pride in my home being well cared for and clean. I would ensure your home would be taken care of in the same way while looking after your pets. Whether it is my home or yours, or taking your pets for a walk, I will be respectful and ensure your pet and your home is well looked after.

About: Hey there! My name is Miranda and I have experience working with families and their pets. I am a Kansas City Native whose family relocated to Nashville, TN in 2021. I would love to help assist your family in any Dog care needs! I am a seasonal worker who provides animal care in off seasons! This off season I am very flexible when it comes to time and duration. I am always diligent in following your routine and care guidelines and always want your animal to feel comfortable and taken care of! When dog sitting I will always follow your precautions when it comes to safety as well any expectations you may have for enrichment or time spent with your animal. It is very important to me that your animal is safe at all times and also has fun!

About: Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or mental stimulation, I adjust my care to fit each dog's personality and energy level. I treat every pet like my own! I’m currently a student at Belmont University and working a part time job at a smoothie bar. I’m desperately animal deprived and missing my dog back home in Colorado! I have lots of free time Monday, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays throughout the day, and I would love nothing more than to fill it by providing your pet with the love and attention he/she deserves. I maintain the pet’s regular feeding, walking, and playtime schedule to minimize stress. I keep the home tidy, bring in mail, and ensure everything runs smoothly while you're away.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was little, but have offered services to other folks and their pets since I’ve been able to drive. I’m the owner of two dogs myself and I’m very familiar with breeds like chihuahuas, pit bulls, and coonhounds. I have cared for dogs of all ages and degrees of care (medicine, specific diets). I work for myself at a salon, so I have complete freedom of my schedule. This allows me to have more flexibility with clients during the day and on weekends/holidays. I think all animals thrive more in their own environments, which is why I don’t offer services in my own home. My dogs have their own boundaries that I want to respect.. I will take the time to get to know your animal and gain their trust in order to provide the best care for them while you’re away.

“Jennifer was wonderful! Pixel sometimes takes a little while to warm up to new people and he took to her like she was a long lost friend! We will definitely be using her again!”
