“Klara has been amazing to work with and we look forward to continue working with her. She visits regularly to give our dog a bathroom break. She is very patient and was willing to go through several meet and greets so our pup could get used to her. Great communication. Highly recommend!!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 12 years old and got my first pet who is turning 8 years old soon. We currently have four dogs in my house who I love. I have taken care of many peoples dogs when they have gone on vacation, I have made sure they were walked, fed, and entertained while their pet parents were away. I am currently working part time while I am a full time student. I have a very flexible schedule to walk your fur baby, you are more than welcome to contact me and check if I am available. I can make sure to walk your fur baby near your home or the route that you believe they would be most comfortable with. I can play with them and make them feel more comfortable with me. I will make sure to put their safety first whenever they are with me.

About: My doggies taught me everything I know. They are no longer here - they went to doggy heaven and we miss them all the time. My teens and I have a lot love to give and want to share with your doggy. You can rest assured we would treat your doggy as if it were ours. Also, anything under 10.5 miles for more than 1 day I offer pick up and dropp off. I work from home and have a very tight routine in our home that will help your pet feel calm and secure. Since pets thrive on routine it will bring them peace and calmness. I can give extra walks when it's a nice day and make sure we stay active if need or relaxed and enjoying a lazy "dog day". I have a quiet, grassy backyard that gives dogs a calm place to sniff, stretch their legs, and enjoy fresh air. It's a low-stress space that's great for potty breaks and relaxed outdoor time. I'm very mindful of which dogs are a good fit for my space and always put safety and comfort first so that your pups feel happy and at ease while they're with me. Doggies are allowed on our beds and couches and even our bathrooms :) - we keep a light sense of humor

“Josh was terrific! Our pitbull Lizzie thought he was great, too. Josh knows how to handle a dog, put on a complicated harness, and keep them on pace and well-behaved during the walk. We could tell Lizzie had a good time on the walk because she was wagging her tail and totally pooped out! Josh is reliable and mature. We look forward to booking him again!”

About: Something that sets me apart is that I’m a dog trainer, actively pursuing to achieve certification for professional dog trainer. I participate regularly with dog training and actively see a dog training mentor weekly. I have loved dogs since I was very little. I do a pretty good job at reading their body language and how to anticipate their next moves.I’m able to reduce the anxiety a dog might have being away from you and with a new person. I use positive reinforcement by being gentle and firm and I try to be fun and playful with the dog or puppy. I have two dogs. I actively take them out, I feed them every morning and night. I bathe when they need it. I walk them and take them to dog classes or improve any behavior issues they might have or come across. Apart from my dogs, I participle imagine dog training classes as a student and to demonstrate dog training techniques. Such as: Sitting, downing, standing, staying and walking nicely in lead, etc. Maintaining owners schedule such as feeding, walking, medications, etc. Ensuring the cleanliness of the dog and dog waste in the yard or other properties. I will actively play with the dogs to tire them out and do what I can to ensure the health and enjoyment of the dog.

About: I have a dog of my own who is very spoiled, loving, and definitely a little needy, so I’m very comfortable giving pets plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. I’ve also cared for larger dogs, including Golden Retrievers, and I’m comfortable keeping up with their energy and needs. I’ve had experience staying overnight at clients’ homes to care for their pets, making sure they’re comfortable and following their normal routines while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust, and I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, care, and love I give my own I currently work M, T, Th, F from 8 AM–6 PM. I’m fully available on Wednesdays and throughout the weekend, which gives me plenty of flexibility for overnight stays, longer visits, walks, and other pet care. For weekday bookings, I’m happy to discuss what works best around my work schedule. I’ll always communicate clearly ahead of time to make sure your pet’s needs and routine are taken care of. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I’m attentive to their surroundings, routines, and individual needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable and secure while in my care. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, which is why I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, communicate with you throughout the booking, and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pet with the same patience, care, and love I give my own.

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was young, starting with my neighbor's Old English Sheepdog. Today, I'm the go-to sitter my sister relies on to care for her little fluffball, whether it's for an evening away or extended vacations. I'm comfortable providing consistent, attentive care for every pet -- and following your every instruction to make sure your pet stays happy and healthy while you're away. I currently work a flexible, non-traditional schedule that includes fantasy illustration projects and teaching art classes. This gives me built-in gaps during the day that I'd love to fill with dog care, whether that means walks, playtime, or multi-day companionship. Your dog's routine and well-being are my top priorities. I make sure that your dog gets the best care possible and will follow all instructions to the letter: setting phone alarms to ensure potty breaks and meals happen right on time, monitoring treats so your dog is neither over- nor under-indulged, and sticking closely to established sleep schedules. I'm equally respectful of your home, taking care to leave it as clean and orderly (or better) than when I arrived.

“Nataliia did a great job walking my 2 dogs. She was able to handle 2 dogs one of them a big 100lb pitbull very well. She was on time and followed all my instructions perfectly and a bonus she even walked them a bit longer than requested to make sure they both went to the bathroom. She fed and gave them water as well. I would definitely have Nataliia walk my dogs again.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have always loved being around animals. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies to sweet senior pups. I love going on walks, playing, giving lots of attention and cuddles, and making sure every dog feels happy, safe, and loved while they’re with me. I’m also happy to help with feeding, medications, basic training, and whatever your pup needs. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own! I’m available anytime after 4:30 PM Monday through Friday and anytime on the weekends. I’m a nurse, so my schedule can change from week to week, but I’ll always keep my Rover calendar updated so you know when I’m available. I want your pet to feel comfortable and safe while they’re with me. I’m happy to care for them in your home or take them out for walks and activities. I’ll follow their normal routine and any instructions you leave for me, and I’ll keep you updated while you’re away.

Amy was wonderful! She had great communication and was very flexible, which we really appreciated. Our dog Brady can be very nervous around new people, and Amy was so patient, respected his boundaries, and followed our instructions without pushing him. We felt very comfortable having her work with him and are so happy we connected with her. We’ll definitely be using Amy for future walks and highly recommend her!

Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
