About: Hi, I’m Allyssa! I’ve been caring for both dogs and cats my entire life. I have experience walking, training, exercising, playing and socializing with dogs and cats of all ages/breeds/sizes. I am a very attentive, kind, caring and patient person. To me a dog or a cat is one hundred percent more than a pet, but an extension of you, and therefore very much a part of your family. It’s my privilege and pleasure to provide your pet with the highest quality of care and respect. Every dog or cat I’ve come in contact with I’ve treated as my own, and I take pride in giving animals the special attention that every pet deserves. I will be 100% committed to being there for you and your pet.
“Tim is an amazing dog walker! Professional, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about animals. Myloh absolutely adores him, and we’ve noticed such a positive difference in energy and behavior. Would recommend to anyone without hesitation.”
“Emily was the sweetest to my fur baby. I rescued my dog a month ago and she has had a rough time acclimating to people and other dogs and Emily made such a big effort to make her feel comfortable. She’s such a caring person, fully recommended!”
About: Years of experience with large and small dogs. I provide structured walks, active play, and calm attention, always tailoring care to each dog’s unique needs. As a part-time worker/student, I have the flexibility to build pet care into my daily routine—morning walks, midday check-ins, and evening visits could all fit smoothly. I only provide care in clients’ homes, where pets feel most secure. I stick to their normal routines, give lots of attention, and keep things clean and calm.

I had updates for Maya and Ollie after every walk which placed my mind at ease. I will definitely be requesting her again as the need for a walker arises.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments for several years through friends, family, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I have experience with both high energy pets and more relaxed or senior animals, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I’m very attentive, patient, and treat every pet like my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for drop in visits, walks, and sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I can adjust to your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep spaces clean, and make sure pets are secure at all times.

About: In my 21 years on this planet, I have had 3 cats, 2 dogs, 4 birds, 1 horse, 2 snakes, 6 fish and 1 mouse... so far. I’ve always been referred to as "The Animal Whisperer” in my family, as I always seem to be the one the "difficult" animals are drawn to. I have actually been studying animal psychology in college for over 3 years, and understand even more now how to read their body language and facial expressions properly in order to hear to their silent communication. I am well versed in feeding, grooming, driving, training, walking, bathing, and entertaining many different types of pets, (dogs, cats, and birds in particular). I currently care for our family pets, and I feed them all in the morning and again at night (9 am and 9 pm). I spend lots of time with my cats throughout the day, and I clean their litter boxes nightly. I buy food in bulk about once a month, and my cats eat two different types of food (because I have one picky eater and one that eats anything). I put away food on the counters because my cat eats everything that's left out. Lots of physical affection with one cat, and very little with the other (their preferences), and both are usually playful at night. I frequently care for my grandfather’s 2-year-old pitbull, who has a raw food diet and requires a lot of attention and walking. I know her daily routine very well and set alarms to stick to it as precisely as possible. When I watch her, I take her out once every two hours or so, I play tug of war and fetch with her (those are her favorite games), and I give her lots of affection. When I take your fur baby on a walk, we go wherever they are used to going. Consistency is a key factor in helping a pet feel safe and secure. If I am pet-sitting/housesitting, I am a responsible adult who makes sure I treat your home and pets with the love and respect they deserve. Your rules for your pet are my rules for your pet, and I am beyond happy to share a bed with your pet if that is what they are used to doing. Your pet will be well cared for when left in my capable hands!
About: CPR & First Aid Certified | Insured & Bonded I have loved animals of all kinds since what seems like birth. I have years of experience caring for and working with pets of all kinds, ages, and health levels. I offer walks, drop-ins and some sitting services (see note). I am currently a stay at home mom so my days are flexible. ***Note regarding SITTING Services: I am typically unable to stay overnight in your home. However, this does not prevent me from providing high quality, attentive care. I guarantee that I will return promptly first thing the following morning to tend to your pet’s needs. I commit to working with you to find a schedule that works for you and instills confidence that your pets are taken care of up to your standards. I have experience administering medication, both oral and injections. My last dog had severe health issues and food allergies that required daily shots, pills, and home cooked meals with numerous supplements. I have experience with puppies as young as six weeks old (and kittens as young as two) as well as seniors. I’m comfortable taking care of special needs animals as well. I am communicative prior and throughout service, including updates, recaps and photos. I am incredibly patient with animals and their behaviors and pride myself in making them comfortable with me. When on walks your dog’s safety is my number one priority. I always carry a doggie water bottle in case they get thirsty or it’s hot. I'm currently the pet parent of a high energy Australian Cattle Dog/Husky mix and a well-meaning Siamese mix. COVID vaccinated. I have flexible availability Sunday-Saturday for one-time and recurring services. I am available for last minute walks, drop-ins and sitting. I am excited to meet your pets! For sitting clients, I will work with you to find a schedule that works for you and your pets. I can come over as early, stay late, and spend lots of time with your pets. I pay attention to details and aim to follow all the instructions to the letter and I pride myself in being very communicate. I have experience meeting both gregarious and shy dogs. I have patience to let your pets come to me so that they feel comfortable with me in their home. Safety on walks is number one priority. This starts with secure leash/harness and includes awareness of triggers, and being conscious about the heat/cold.

I can't overstate how lucky we were to find Erick among hundreds of providers on Rover. We needed our two larger-sized pups to be walked twice a day for a week. Our pups took to him immediately and it was smooth sailing from there. Erick is incredibly pleasant, easy to work with, reliable, and punctual. He never shorted our pups on time and treated them like they were his. Erick is a consummate professional, and deserves 6 stars out of 5. Highly recommend.
Spencer is incredible! He’s been walking my dog Buffalo, and I couldn't be happier. He’s extremely punctual and has fast communication, which makes scheduling a breeze. It’s so reassuring that he owns the same breed; he truly understands their energy levels and how to handle them on a leash. He’s a total natural, and Buffalo always comes back happy!
I am so thankful to have found Deshuade on Rover one week before my trip . He made me feel so relieved since I first tried booking with him, I was able to let him know everything I needed when I wasn’t going to be here, and he even made time to meet up days before the appointment! I 100% recommend anybody to book him . He was so much help with walking and taking care of my big dog !
Alexis was wonderful with my two pups, Peaches and Craig! She came by for a meet and greet beforehand, which showed right away how thoughtful and caring she is. She has such a kind energy that my dogs instantly picked up on, and they felt super comfortable with her. During the booking, she walked and fed them, kept me updated the whole time, and was so easy to communicate with. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in her hands. I highly recommend Alexis. Peaches, Craig, and I are so grateful we found her!
