“Doug was seriously a lifesaver for our dog Tony while we went on vacation! We were able to fully relax knowing Doug had taken on all the responsibilities for Tony! He was always on time for his walks. We learned from Doug about training and tricks for Tony! He wrote very detailed reports every single day that we were excited to read!! Doug was reliable, friendly, and thoughtful during the whole time we were gone with phenomenal communication! Doug is a fantastic dog walker that we can fully trust and feel comfortable while we were away! We highly recommend Doug for all your animal’s needs ! We will be requesting Doug again and again!”

About: I’m the friend who always gets the "can you watch my dog?" call because I’ve been around pups of all shapes and sizes since I was five. That lifetime of experience means I’m just as comfortable keeping up with a rambunctious puppy as I am providing a calm, gentle environment for a sweet senior who needs a little extra patience. Pet care fits perfectly into my active lifestyle. My days already revolve around long walks and staying moving, so your pup becomes my dedicated plus-one for every adventure. My schedule is flexible, and when I’m with your pet, they are my main priority—I treat their routine with the same care and focus I give my own. I treat your home and your pet with the same respect I’d want for my own. Whether we're hanging out at my place or yours, I focus on creating a secure, "paws-on" environment where routines are followed strictly so your pet feels safe. I’m all about clear updates and total transparency, so you can relax knowing they’re in good, experienced hands.

“Brandi took amazing care of our pup while we were on our honeymoon. She went above and beyond and practiced his commands on each day she walked him. She also took him to the little dog park nearby. Communication was excellent, and we will absolutely be using her again!”

About: I have extended experience with the care and training of dogs and pets, starting at the age of seven when I trained my first dog. I continued throughout the years, with breeds from labs, to German Shepards, golden retrievers and bull terriers and rescue dogs. I was able to watch my mother train her own dog to be a service animal, which extended my appreciation and knowledge of dog psychology. I specialize in large breeds (but equally love small breeds) and am familiar with the amount of energy and care that they require. I also offer dog running, in addition to dog walking. This is great for large, high energy dogs in good health. For many of the working and larger breeds, this is an excellent way to really give them the most out of their exercise. I am dependable, flexible, have reliable and safe transportation and excellent references available. I look forward to meeting you and your furbabies! I’m currently available anytime Sunday- Wednesday, Thursday through Saturday I am available anytime before 8:45 am or after 5:30pm. Daily, weekly or bi-weekly, I truly have a passion for animals and exercise. I offer dog walking/running in your area, or at a location or park nearby. I only offer pet sitting in the clients home currently, due to my own pet and limited outdoor space.

“I cannot recommend Katherine enough. She has been walking my two dogs for the past three months consistently 3 days a week while I work in office. My dogs can be a handful, with their bad leash habits and bad manners… Katherine has never had any issues or complained. She’s been so patient, responsible, and caring towards them, handling their craziness with love like I would. She’s also incredibly thoughtful. One particular day, I canceled due to being home from work sick and wanted to give her her lunch break back - she offered to still come, knowing I needed the rest. That meant so much and just shows the type of person she is. Katherine is dependable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. Now that I dont need a walker with work schedule changes, I want to make sure others know she’s fantastic!!! Me and my boys are so thankful for the last three months with her 🐶🐶”

About: I really treat every dog like they’re my own — because I know what that love feels like. I have a dog named Ace who’s been with me for five years, and caring for him has taught me patience and trust is. I focus on making each visit calm, positive, and reliable so your pup actually looks forward to seeing me. I have experience training puppies, so I’m gentle and consistent while helping them build good habits. I also understand the extra care seniors need — slower walks, comfort, mobility support, and keeping an eye on medications and routines. My goal is simple: keep your dog safe, happy, and loved while you’re away, also keep you updated. I have lots of treats if allowed. FIRST TIME DISCOUNTS AVAILABLE My schedule is an open book. I do work part time so I do have plenty of time to respond and make due. Please feel free to message me anytime. I will respond as soon as possible.

About: Having worked in a dog shelter and now currently at a animal hospital (which boards cats, dogs, birds, exotics) with different personalities and needs, has really made me appreciate every single animal I meet.

Thornton Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had a wonderful experience! She did an excellent job walking my dog, Vivi. Vivi absolutely loves her and was always so happy to see her. She was reliable, caring, and clearly treated Vivi with lots of love and attention. I felt very comfortable knowing Vivi was in great hands. Highly recommend!
I’m so glad I found Brie, she’s amazing!!❤️ I was so nervous leaving my rescue pitbull baby who’s reactive and a runner if she gets out. Brie was so attentive to all of my concerns and made me feel so comfortable. She was so accommodating to my strange requests and consistently sent updates, and the cutest photos! I was able to turn off my helicopter mom brain while I was away, it was wonderful 😭🥰 Thanks again!!
Nao did an amazing job walking our dog, Morty. She was prompt with great communication and she was able to take our request on short notice around the holidays. Morty really liked her and we got so many cute photos of the walk. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Nao again!
