“The dogs loved their walk with Kaitlyn. They were tuckered out when they got back and slept soundly while I worked from home. Perfect situation! Can’t wait for their next walk today!”


“Anvesha was great with my sweet boy! She was reliable and communicated well! Sent a lot of pictures and updates after the walk! :) Will definitely book her again”


“Breckyn was a lifesaver when I ended up in a pinch over a weekend. We were able to schedule a meet & greet super quickly, and she left thorough notes about each walk. She even pointed out an overgrown claw + sent pictures of my cats too. Really put me at ease! Thanks so much!”


“Joseph is the best you could ask for. Reliable, responsible, kind, and my 2 dogs absolutely adore him. In fact, they go absolutely insane when he walks through the door. Seriously, Joseph is awesome!”


“Lauren is truly great! Our meet and greet was so warm and reassuring, and her communication has been impeccable from the start. She really took the time to understand that my dog has some anxiety, and I trust her professional judgment completely when it comes to handling that with care and confidence. Her updates are always solid and thoughtful, and I’m so excited for her to continue walking my dog. Highly recommend!”



“Tre has become like family. He is always available to take care of Dax when I need and treats him as if he was his own. He’s very personable, responsible, reliable, accommodating to my crazy schedule and he will definitely continue to be my go-to.”


About: I have been pet watching since I was about 12. I had a dog growing up my whole life, I’m a lover of dogs more then humans to be honest and no matter big or small all dogs are so special. I am currently looking for a new job, while starting to work a part time job. I will have more time to hang out and be present and provide the care they need. I live in an apartment but I am on second floor close to nearest exit, takes about 30 seconds to go down the stairs out to a grass area. Live in the heart of south end so lots of walking areas.

“Amber did an amazing job walking Gungi! She was reliable, friendly, and made sure Gungi got the exercise and attention he needed. I could tell he was happy and well-cared for after their walks. I’ll definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog walker!”


About: I’ve been caring for pets since I became best friends with the dogs on my walk home from the bus stop at age 10. I love spending time with dogs of all sizes and ages, building trust, and becoming a familiar friend to them. I take pride in being reliable and attentive, treating every pet like my own. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m available on weekdays and some weekends, so I have plenty of flexibility! I’d love to use that time to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priorities. I take time to learn their routines, needs, and personality to help them feel at ease. In your home, I’ll respect your space and follow care instructions closely whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or special care. With lots of attention and patience, I aim to keep pets relaxed and stress-free while you’re away.

“What a pleasure to have Karen A look after my puppies while we were out of town. She has a truly gentle nature that I know my dogs loved! And the daily updates made me feel like I was home! I cannot thank you enough Karen ❤️”

Third Ward dog parents share their Rover experiences
I can’t say enough great things about Lauren. As my first time using the app/service I was highly impressed. Throughout each walk, Lauren updated with daily photos and messages, letting me know how things were going. It gave me such peace of mind to know my dog was being loved, walked, and cared for like one of their own. I came home to a happy dog. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and truly passionate about pets, I highly recommend Lauren. I’ll definitely be booking again!

Joseph was wonderful and would highly recommend! We appreciate how communicative and responsive he is, and he was able to handle multiple dogs on short notice. You can tell through the photos he sent how much our pups were well taken care of. We will for sure be using him again in the future!

I can’t recommend Lindsay enough. She walks my dog, Benson, twice a week and is always extremely communicative. It has become the highlight of my week when Lindsay sends me pictures of her and Benson’s walk. Lindsay is reliable, responsible, and clearly has a deep caring for animals.

We love Olivia! She was on time and so sweet. She went above and beyond while walking Seamus—they did a full mile in 30 minutes! My boy was pooped when he got back, which definitely helped ease my guilt on a busy day. She made me feel very comfortable and reassured me that he was well behaved. It’s always a little nerve-wracking handing the leash over and hoping they behave themselves, but she handled it perfectly. We’ll definitely be contacting her again for walks. Thanks again, Olivia!
