About: I’ve raised my own dog since he was a puppy, so I know exactly what dogs need at every stage. From early morning walks to keeping them entertained and fed, it’s just part of my daily routine. I didn’t just own a dog I grew up with him. Your dog will get the same attention and care I give mine every single day. Dogs get a morning walk around 10–10:30am, then they’re free to relax in the living room or hang out in the fenced backyard. Once it cools down in the evening I take them out again around 6–7pm. During the day they have access to the backyard for potty breaks whenever they need it. Before bed there’s one last walk around 11–11:30pm so they’re settled for the night. I have a fenced backyard so dogs can roam and play safely without any worry. I own a friendly dog myself so your pup will have a buddy to hang out with. We’re in a house so there’s plenty of space to move around and get comfortable. Dogs are welcome on the furniture I want them to feel at home, not like they’re in a strange place.

About: Growing up, I have always looked after dogs of close friends and family, and have studied nutrition and health, which led me to work at a pet hotel for about a year with almost every dog breed. My responsibilities included prepping food, cleaning, 1 on 1 play, and group play. I have been in charge of up to 20 dogs at 1 time. I also co-own a dog named Luna. The other owner and I had Luna since she was a puppy and she is now 5 years old. I teach obedience/behavior training to many dogs and I develop trust with dogs that is unique to my experience with various breeds. It takes patience and consistency to be a great leader for dogs and I wear my heart on my sleeve for every dog I'm caring for; communication with your dog is key. I currently work with dogs full time and make Dog care apart of my every day routine, if I'm not with my dog I'm working with other dogs. I have a good size open backyard and toys depending on the play style of your dog; crate training is much appreciated if they are familiar. Walks are frequent, especially for high energy dogs

About: I have cared for my own pets since I was a child. I’ve always loved animals and have always had pets. I’ve rescued and helped strays cats along with my other family members. One of my most special cats had asthma and had to use and inhaler. I am capable handling medical needs for pets as I’ve also owned english bulldogs and they’ve had various skin allergies so I’m aware of allergy needs for special cats and dogs. I’ve recently started caring for chickens too lol. I have enough patience to help with basic training such as give paw/high fives, potty training and sit. My own pets have made it senior ages as well and am aware of older pets needs. I currently work and help care for my dad a few days a week, and I do my pet sitting at his house. He has a spacious yard where dogs can run around and play. My brother and sister also help care for our dad and pets, so they’re often around to lend a hand with pet sitting as well. I provide daily basic grooming and baths, nail trimming, medication administration, and regular walks. I also offer plenty of belly rubs and ear scratches! I clean up after the pets, prepare their meals, and ensure they are well-fed and cared for.

Noelle is an absolute gem! This was her first meeting with Finn, and it couldn’t have gone better. From the moment they met, it was clear she has a natural way with dogs—Finn instantly adored her! Not only does she make sure Finn gets plenty of exercise, but she also keeps me updated with adorable photos, which gives me such peace of mind knowing he’s in such loving hands. She’s reliable, friendly, and truly goes the extra mile to make sure Finn is happy and well cared for. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, caring, and all-around wonderful dog walker, Noelle is the one! Highly recommend!

About: I love dogs, they are my favorite animal. I am very passionate about taking care of, walking, playing etc with dogs and will do the best I can with your awesome furry companion. All I require to take care of your doggy is a schedule detailing what you would do normally with them on the daily. I can give your dog all the attention and care they need during the day, again I love all kinds of dogs and will do anything to make your furry friend very happy. I have a dog of my own named jax, he is 4 years old and I have been taking care of him since me and my family bought him home from the new jersey dog shelter.

About: I've been caring for pets professionally for over 10 years. I'm not just a caregiver; I'm a devoted pet parent myself. My own fur babies are like my children, and I treat every pet I care for with the same love, attention, and respect. I work full time but with a very flexible schedule. I work from home & occasionally go into the city. I’m comfortable with all age groups Whether it's daily walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping your pet company while you're away, I bring patience, experience, and genuine affection to every visit. I understand how important it is to feel your pet is in good hands--and that's exactly what I strive to provide.

Samantha has gone above and beyond time and time again while caring for and walking my dog, Obi. She is always highly responsive, reliable, and very understanding when it comes to scheduling changes. I’m very selective about who I trust to walk my dog, and I would definitely recommend Sam to any dog owner.

This was my very first time using Rover, and Taylor made the entire experience so incredibly easy and stress-free. From the moment we connected, she was warm, professional, and reassuring. She kept me updated at all times, sent plenty of adorable pictures, and truly treated my pup, Prince, like her own. Knowing he was in such good hands allowed me to completely relax, and I genuinely appreciated the attention, patience, and kindness Taylor showed him. I couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience, and I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust with my fur baby. Thank you, Taylor, for taking such amazing care of Prince!

Jay is the best! Even before Jay took him out for the first time, I knew he was in great hands. In the complementary meet and greet and over text, Jay asked so many questions that showed me that they were really invested in Harry’s success and knew the right questions to ask about a dog with complex behavioral issues like Harry. Since she started walking my dog, everything has been so smooth. She is extremely reliable and always very gentle with Harry. I would highly recommend Jay for any of your dog care needs.
