“Taylor has been a great walker for our mini Aussie! She has gone above and beyond in the heat to make sure that Rosie gets a walk but doesn’t overheat, and makes up the time by playing with her. She takes great photos, is an overall delight, and was also very patient learning our janky front door. We’re so glad we found her!”
About: I’ve had animals all of my life from all types, I love getting outside and being active with animals, it’s great to keep them in shape and make sure they stay healthy in the long run! I am a college student who will be at home for the summer with not a lot of commitments so my schedule is very available, if something on my public schedule doesn’t work for you feel free to message me and we can try to work something out! I will care for your pets however you think is best. If they need to be in the yard, kennel or free roaming, I will do whatever is normal for you and your animals!
“Awesome & very communicative! It was my first time using someone for my girl & I was probably more nervous than her lol, but Amber kept me informed with pics & updates. Will definitely book her again. 😊😊”
“Aivy is always so good with my baby . She has a very calm and relaxing demeanor which helps Athena. I love all the pictures and updates I get while she is there. I highly recommend Aivy!”
“Sarah is truly great! Upon meeting her, the dog instantly took a liking to her (and the cat did not take off under the bed). She quickly jumped in and has been a blessing as she comes in and gives the dog a potty break and a chance to stretch her legs/burn off some energy. My puppy is a giant breed so her playful mess can be "a lot." Her photos of their walk and the time she takes to love on the cat are a bright spot in my work day. And best of all, I don't worry about my girls while I'm away.”
About: Hi there! I’ve owned dogs and cats since I was a kid and have an affinity for all pets. I am currently mom to a poodle mix and 2 adorable cats. I’ll treat your dog as if it were my own - with lots of love! I’m up to go anywhere your dog wants to go and take great care of them. I’m always ready to run with your dog or take it slow and chill. Long, slow walks or short, exhilarating walks are all up my alley. I’m willing to meet your dog with you beforehand to see if we’re a fit and make sure I can give y’all the safest and exciting experience. I also can do commissioned drawings of your furry friend! I hope to meet your companion soon and take the good kid on an amazing walk. I took a break from Rover (hence the old reviews) but I am thrilled to be back. I'm currently a graduate student so I try to do this doing my free time Sunday to Tuesday. I am available most mornings and will let you know if I can accommodate. I currently am only able to do drop ins and walks. I treat every client's home with respect and will make sure to leave the home as it was. My number one priority is your pet's safety and happiness!
“Melanie is remarkable - just jumped right in to help me and love my puppies. There when i need her and always kind hearted and helpful and loving to the dogs - so reassuring and makes me smile!”
“Alexis was amazing!!!! She gave such great updates and took amazing photos. Kept me well informed of her and my dogs whereabouts. Would 100% use Alexis and again and recommend her! She gave me such a peace of mind of one of my very long work days! Thank you again Alexis for loving my dogs the way I do!!”
“I live on the opposite side of town, but when I'm travelling, I deliberately drive all the way over here because I want to leave my dog in Chloe's care. She's super reliable, does everything I need done for the dog, and my dog loves her. I have a lot of anxieties about leaving my dog with other people because she can be difficult, but I feel absolutely at ease whenever Chloe is taking care of her.”
“Lindsey is the best! We’ve had Lindsey come and walk Lila for almost two weeks now and Lila loves her. I highly recommend Lindsey for your pet needs. She is reliable, dependable, and amazing with Lila. Thank you, Lindsey!”
“One of the best walkers and sitters on Rover! My dog Blue had an absolute blast with her. She’s incredibly considerate and attentive to every detail. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
About: I have been around dogs ever since I can remember. I currently have 3 dogs all different sizes small medium and large and they are my happiness! ❤️ I’m currently working full time as a receptionist, but I have Thursdays and Sundays off, and Fridays after 2! So those are the days I can walk doggies. I have a fenced in yard! With 3 dogs all different sizes small medium and large! They get treats everyday and daily walks! And they love their nap times.
“Daniela is the best, she made sure my fur baby was safe, comfortable, and loved while I was away. Don’t hesitate to book her she does a great job and will go as far as bringing an ice cream for the pup, I hope we all have a great experience with her!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and have experience training puppies and handling all kinds of dogs. I have also volunteered at an animal shelter, where I learned about animal behavior and how to properly care for and work with different pets. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule throughout the week and can make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention and care they need. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for in a client’s home. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions given by the owner. I also make sure pets feel comfortable by giving them plenty of attention and patience.
About: I have had dogs my whole life . While I don’t have any of my own now, I enjoy walking & checking in on them on my days off work! My schedule at work gives me some days where I’m very flexible. let me know how I can help! Always up to play with dogs. I am open to short walks or very long ones. I am confident with most sized dogs if they are not highly reactive and are leash trained. I ensure all dogs I walk have plenty of water and are not walking on overly hot ground.
About: Hi! I’m Jen 😊 I’m a local dog walker and pet sitter offering walks and drop-in visits through Rover. I’m dependable, active, and genuinely love spending time with animals. Staying active is a big part of my lifestyle, so I especially enjoy working with dogs who need a little extra movement, attention, and engagement during the day. Whether it’s a quick check-in or a longer walk, I’ll make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and communication so you feel completely comfortable while you're away. I’d love to meet you and your pet—feel free to reach out anytime! I recently retired from corporate after 24 years as a Regional Property Manager. Our dog Samson passed in July 2025 from cancer and I am not yet ready to own another fur baby. I would love to help others with theirs and fill my time being of service while also getting a little fur baby love in return. I am happy to care for your pet however you need in my time inside your home. Take them for walks, feed them, let them play outside or inside.
About: I’ve grown up around all kinds of animals. From cats and dogs to chickens and goats, I am confident that, whatever the animal, and whatever the need, I can’t take care of it! I currently have two cats and three dogs of my own, so my patience is that of a brick wall being pummeled by a feather. And don’t let my size fool you! Though I may be the same height as your pup, I am fully capable of caring after a dog of any size. I’m currently going to school full time, so I have a completely open schedule while school is out for the summer break! When school starts again in the fall, I will continue to do over night pet sitting but will only do walks when I can. If their general care is listed, I follow that. I’ll reach out if I have any questions and with occasional pictures of your pet to keep you updated! I try to play with them every few hours, and take dogs on walks at least once a day. I also spend as much time as I possibly can with each animal!
“Alpa was great! She walked Rigby as asked and sent us pictures everyday to keep us up to date and let us see our sweet baby boy! I highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies!!!”

Daniela is an absolutely fantastic pet sitter! This was our first time to use Rover and we couldn't be more pleased with the person we chose. Daniela took amazing care of our Pyrenees mix, providing her with the most amazing walks and care. She definitely went beyond our expectations and we plan to use her in the future. It's nice to know you can go out of town and your beloved pets are in excellent care! Thanks Daniela!!!
Alexis is so sweet and really takes time and care with your animals. She is very detailed and always provides great updates. Knowing that my dog is well looked after when i'm not home gives me peace of mind. I love having Alexis as my dog walker and my dog loves her too!
Deepika was pleasant to work with for my parent's dog. She was always timely, professional, and loved our dog like her own. It was such a relief to have someone help out after my dad's surgery and I couldn't have asked for a better person to take care of Maggie than Deepika!
