Dog Walking in Stoney Ridge, Dayton, OH

“A really great walker. My normally shy and anxious boy really took to her, and he clearly had a great time on his walk because I home to a calm and contented puppy”

“I’ve known Katie since I was about 13 years old and I’ve always know her to be a dog lover. She has had at least one golden retriever in her family for as long as I’ve known her (she currently has 2)! She knows just about everything there is to know about dog care and is very great at keeping all types of dogs entertained. Whenever I’m out of town I know I can trust Katie to care for my chocolate Lab as she is very responsible and reliable!”

“Bradley was a true lifesaver, stepping in and walking my 84lb Goldendoodle 2x a day for 6 days. I broke my dominate arm and needless to say, quite helpless. Bradley is the consummate professional, always on time, documenting every walk with a photo and summary. Cookie always looked forward to his arrival and finally, at the age of 13, learned the meaning of a schedule! Dog owners couldn’t find anyone more trustworthy than Bradley.”

“Dionte is trustworthy, dependable, nurturing and caring. He has babysat my fur-babies multiple times. When my Aussie shepherd was a little too fluffy, Dionte took him on regular runs around the neighborhood and to the outdoor mall to socialize him and help him drop a few pounds. He takes the time to meticulously and calmly brush our very anxious little dog until he calms down and cuddles with Dionte. The pups just love him! I would highly recommend Dionte to babysit your fur-babies. Sincerely, Cristina M”

“It is with no hesitation that I highly recommend Clara as a trustworthy and loving pet caregiver. Clara lived next door to me for several years, and when her car pulled in to her driveway, my dog would jump up on the back of the sofa, her tail swishing like window wipers, and she would whine when Clara went into her home. Clara would often text me then to invite my dog over and my pup would go right to the door and prance until I opened it. She'd then fly down the steps and into Clara's house within seconds. If I came over to bring my dog back, she would sometimes hide behind Clara's legs! She loved Clara! I trust Clara to the moon and back. She is clear, caring, and consistent. You cannot find a better caregiver for your pet.”

About: I have been caring for pets pretty much ever since I could walk & talk. I have had pets all 25 years of my life and showed interest in working with animals from a very young age. I currently work at a non-profit animal shelter on our intake team. There, I help work up every cat & dog who comes into our facility, whether it be an owner surrender, stray, or transfer from a high kill shelter. I am comfortable administering medications to cats and dogs. I have experience fostering and raising bottle baby kittens. I am currently learning basic dog obedience as well as behavior adjustment training for dogs. I am also a volunteer "paw partner" through my work to help my favorite shelter dog work on his training and become more comfortable with vet care handling, to get off site and go on walks, etc. I am extremely passionate and love every single animal I meet, even the tricky ones who may have some questionable behaviors. I believe every animal deserves to feel love and be cared for just as well as us humans I work part-time, and do some volunteering on the side, but I have plenty of free time to spend pet sitting, dropping in for potty breaks, as well as taking dogs on walks! If I am pet-sitting in your home, dropping in for potty breaks, or going for walks, I will care for your pets exactly as you'd like me too. Whether you include basic training as a part of their daily routine, crating them, let them roam in the yard for a while or you feed them multiple times a day. Let me know how you want things done and I will do just that!

“Zack is an excellent loving dog dad. He has Max which is an almost 4-year-old golden doodle in Bruno who is a 2 1/2 year-old Boston terrier that he loves dearly and cares for amazingly. I was amazed that he was able to train his dogs so well, and they are so well treated. Make sure that they always have what they need no matter what. he helps. Take care of my two dogs as well when I am away or need help. He goes above and beyond to make sure they are taken care of have the food they need and are bathed.”

“Hello, Sarah Fast is a dog lover. She has owned dogs her entire adult life, including pure bred breeds (Corgi's et. al.) and many rescues as well. She has a large fenced in backyard that is ideal for dogs. Sarah is retired K-12 school teacher and will make a wonderful Rover. Sincerely, John Heckel”

“Kylie is a wonderful dog owner that pays attention to the small details of dog care. She always has her own pet up to date on vaccines and has trained him well. Kylie is responsible, reliable, and professional. I would definitely recommend her!”

“Sara has house sat for our family (one large dog + two cats) for the past several years. She is very sweet and responsible and we know our fur babies are getting lots of love and attention whenever we are away. Sara also helps out by bringing in our mail and watering plants. Sara is a great communicator and I appreciate her help so much!”

“Anna has watched my dogs on many occasions for me. When I pick them up after the week I’ve been away sometimes I feel as if they want to stay with her and not come home with me! She treats them as a part of the family and loves them like her own. They feel very comfortable with her and they trust her completely. Their needs are met daily and she goes above and beyond to make sure that they are happy and healthy babies! I would recommend her to anyone! She is the absolute best!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for about 8 years, to which most have been my own. I have done my own training with them and love to watch dog training videos on YouTube! Dogs just make my soul happy. I am currently on summer break (from teaching) so my schedule is very much open! I am available S-Sa, and any times that are needed. I can care for your dogs by following your rules and instructions. I can easily crate them if needed but also would love to play and take them out on walks if possible. I have 2 dogs of my own so I understand how their diet and exercise are fundamental.

“I wish I had the words to truly express how wonderful Karen is, but I don’t think I could write anything that could! I’d never used Rover before, so I had no idea what to expect, but Karen absolutely exceeded everything I could have ever asked for. She was such a gift for all of us & especially our dog, Finn. Thanks, Karen!!”

“Miranda has always been a great help and host for my 3 cats. All of them love her and have been well cared for, even Zatra who's been temperamental his whole life. Her cats are also friendly and welcoming to other cats, even for extended stays.”

“Your pets would be in great hands with Anna! She’s responsible, trustworthy, loves all animals, and is an amazing pet parent to her dog and cat. She is very patient and punctual, as well as a friendly face to everyone she meets.”

“Amber has watched my cats for years when needed. She always makes sure to keep on their feeding schedule. She goes out of her way to accommodate their hatred of dogs by ensuring they have multiple litter boxes, a water fountain, and tons of food in an area of her home away from her dog. My cats love hanging out with hers, and I love the frequent updates and photos Amber sends. I know she treats them like her own!”

“Ziggy loves walking with Jordan! As a 5 month old puppy she’s pretty active and needs constant love along with a walking companion who allows her to explore the world. Highly recommend Jordan, Ziggy new friend. Her communication is awesome with us!”

“Very happy!!”

“Jailee has had dogs her whole life. They are truly are part of what makes her! Even dogs that are timid of humans seem to love Jailee from the start. If your dog loves to snuggle Jailee is definitely the dog sitter for you! Don't be surprised if she talks to the dogs more than the humans (although she is very outgoing and personable too!)”

“I have known Brooke for a long time! She is my go to cat sitter when I am out of town. She is the best! She loves all animals and takes care of my 5 fur babies so well. I trust her to always be there. She is so great with them. Loves on them and spends a lot of time snuggling with them. I highly recommend her as a sitter! She does a wonderful job. Love you Brookie!!”
