“Skylar is, without a doubt, the best dog friend you could possibly find on Rover! Probably anywhere! He goes above and beyond, treating my girl like family every time! We've been working with him for over a year and I'm grateful everytime that we found Skylar. I could never imagine a better sitter or walker and I hope I never have to!”

“Our problem animal got himself trapped in the bathroom and completely destroyed the place, and Marcia did an awesome job calming him down & even cleaned up a bit before their walk - really appreciate her patience!”


“Kaylin is a very diligent and attentive dog walker. She is always on time, gives our dog an excellent walk, and it very good about communicating with us. I would highly recommend her.”

“Skyler is a great dog caretaker! She brings great energy to her job and the dogs love her positive nature. I have 2 dogs and Skyler is able to walk them both and understands their needs. She pays attention to the care instructions to make sure she is providing the optimal experience. She is a strong communicator being both responsive to requests and proactively sharing pictures and status along the way.”

“Amazing dog walker! She was reliable, professional, and took great care of my dogs. They absolutely loved her and were always excited to see her. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. I would hire her again anytime and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker!”

About: I have had several dogs but do not currently have any pets. I have had to give medicine to dogs and lots of experience with puppy “accidents”. I’m a teacher, so during summer and breaks I have lots of free time. I have two boys, both of whom love animals. They would love to have a pet visit our home. I can only house-sit when I don’t have my children with me, but can board an animal anytime. Important to note that during the school year my Friday availability is evening only. I have a fenced yard. At my home, I can almost guarantee your dog or cat would get to sleep in a child’s bed and be loved like family. At your home, I would respect any rules you have set.
“John is excellent with our Cody. He was scared at first and growled at him but John was kind and patient with him. He asked about all of his triggers and how to handle certain situations to make it as stress-free as possible for our boy. ❤️”


About: I’ve been taking care of my family’s dog since I was 10 years old and have helped out with friends and neighbors dogs! I currently own a black lab so I am comfortable with medium to larger sized dogs. I am currently working part time, which gives me a flexible schedule and lots of time to take care of your pets! I am available most week days after 2 PM! As an owner of a black lab I am patient with all animals and will make sure they feel comfortable and are safe while they are in my care
“Wonderful job walking my two senior pups while I was away on a work trip. She did hour long walks with them on a 2 mile out and back walk. My dogs are always excited to see Claire. She has great energy and is very reliable.”


About: I've had dogs all my life and I've taken care of local neighbors' dogs for years including walking, feeding, playing, and occasionally training. I am working part time at most 3 days a week so I will be available half of the week! I usually go to work in the evenings so on the days I work during the week I will be able to care for pets during the morning and day. I have three dogs at home and am living at home for the summer so I unfortunately will not be accepting pet care inside the house
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have taken care of my friends and neighbors dogs whenever they need a dog sitter. I also worked at Olde Towne Pet Resort for two years working with both dogs and cats. I also worked at Pender Veterinary Centre for two years, where I administer treatment and care of dogs, cats, and even exotic animals! I just graduated college and haven’t found a full time job yet so I will be able to have my full attention for your pet! :) I love taking the dogs on long walks and know of great trails nearby my house and I also understand that some dogs need time to warm up to new people, so I always make sure to approach them calmly, be patient and help them feel comfortable and safe.
About: I have been around dogs my entire life, I have my own doodle who loves other dogs. I often host play dates with the neighbor dogs! I have not met a pup I didn't love. I will treat your dog like my own as I always have done with other pups I have pet sit. I am trying to convince my husband to get a second dog eventually. I work from home most days of the week; however , if I go in then my husband watches our dog. My schedule allows flexibility for the dogs in my care. I have a fenced in yard and my own doodle so I prefer to watch your pup in my own home. There are plenty of trails near our home so we can take long walks if it's not too hot.
About: What sets me apart is my mix of reliability, attention to detail, and thoughtful, structured care. I make sure your pets needs are met while maintaining a calm, stable environment that helps them feel comfortable and secure. I have experience caring for both energetic puppies (with structured play and basic training reinforcement) and senior pets (gentle walks, medication, and extra patience). I’m detail-oriented, calm under pressure, and communicate consistently with updates, photos, and videos so you always know how your pet is doing. Pet care is my full-time focus, which allows me to provide reliable, consistent care throughout the day, including mornings, mid-days, evenings, and weekends. I structure my schedule around the pets in my care while maintaining a realistic routine that supports their well-being. In a client’s home, I follow your pet’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, walks, and preferences — while also ensuring they get the right balance of exercise, attention, and rest.

Amazing dog walker! She was reliable, professional, and took great care of my dogs. They absolutely loved her and were always excited to see her. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. I would hire her again anytime and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker!

Claire has been wonderful to work with! She came by the day before for a site visit to meet my dog, which I really appreciated. She took the time to ask thoughtful questions, learn about my dog’s routine, and make sure she understood his needs. Communication has been excellent from the start, and she’s been incredibly flexible and accommodating. Her professionalism and attention to detail gave me peace of mind, and I feel confident knowing my dog will be in great hands. I’m looking forward to using her dog walking services and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker. Thanks, Claire! 🐾😊

Marti is always so wonderful with our dog Hemi! She is very responsive with walking requests when sent. She is flexible with timing and will always make herself available for your doggo. Further, Hemi loves her and at the end of their walk Marti even spends time with our cat giving her AND Hemi both treats and pets.

Claire was absolutely fantastic! She stepped in super last minute to walk our 65-lb Bernese Mountain Dog puppy, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the start, her communication was excellent — she kept us updated and made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. Claire was incredibly kind, patient, and clearly very comfortable handling a larger dog. Our pup came back happy and well exercised, which says everything. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I would recommend Claire any day and will absolutely be booking with her again. If you're looking for someone reliable, communicative, and great with dogs (especially bigger ones), Claire is the one!

I would pick 10 stars for Michaela, if possible. Star has some tigger issues and I have never asked anyone else to walk my dog as she can be a handful. Michaela walked Star today and I did not worry and Star came back super happy and tired! She loved Michaela and watched out the window as she left. I am hoping to book Michaela again, as needed as she is a dog whisper and I am recommending her to all my dog owner friends. She is the best!
