Dog Walking Tuxedo

About: Hi! While celebrating the milestone of earning my Master’s degree, I traveled to the East Coast this summer and during my trip I pet sat for a friend in NYC while she was traveling in Europe, and I loved it! I miss those fur babies so much that I signed up on Rover as soon as I got home. I’m looking forward to providing check-ins, socializing, and caring for furry friends while I enjoy my newfound freedom! 🙂 I currently have a flexible and open schedule! Please let me know what works best for you to accommodate you and your pet’s needs I welcome specific instructions, am not afraid to ask questions, and will happily provide picture updates so you can have peace of mind. I will always treat your home and space with respect.

“Jennifer was lovely, attentive, and a great communicator. We just adopted our dog and he has little bursts of aggression and Jennifer was kind enough to come by before their first walk to test the waters. Everything turned out great and Jennifer sent updates and pictures throughout his walks. We will definitely work with her again.”

“So thorough and communicative! Thank you!!”

“Highly recommend! We hired Grace for a one-off dog walk while we were at a wedding and she was perfect! She followed instructions, was very self sufficient, and gave us the perfect amount of info in the walk report. We would happily hire her again :)”

“Cara is such a great dog walker! She’s great at communicating and is very intuitive to animals. My dog looks forward to her regular walks! He says 2 paws up!!”

Geri V.

“Thanks for walking Paco!”

“Esteban is the best! I was very afraid I would not find anyone to walk Piper as she is strong and slightly dog selective. Also certain dog folks do not want to walk her with a muzzle which is confusing to me, he has no issues with it. Esteban came for a meet and greet and it was a great fit! Piper has come home happy and exhausted! Can’t wait to grow our relationship with him! He’s the best!”

“Cynthia has been walking our dog, Pip, for the last six weeks while I recover from a foot injury and we really appreciate her. Our dog, Pip, was nervous about walking with a stranger but Cynthia was very flexible in figuring out how to make it more comfortable for Pip. Cynthia is quick to respond and shows up reliably. We really appreciate her help.”

Reggie D.

“Came to meet our dog before the walk. Was reliable and very good to our barky dog. I would definitely use her again and recommend her.”

“Christine is just amazing! She is timely, responsible, kind and responsive. She follows our requests to the letter and takes such great care of our little baby Chloe who just loves when Christine visits. Thank you, Christine!!!”

About: I bring patience, consistency, and real love for animals to every walk or visit. I grew up around dogs and have experience caring for both high-energy puppies and senior dogs who need a slower, gentler touch. I’m mainly an actor and does filming so I have a lot of free time to walk and take care of animals. Getting my daily steps in with pets is something I love to do I treat pets and homes with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. Every animal is different, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and needs — from feeding schedules and potty breaks to their favorite toys and walk routes. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow instructions closely, keep the space clean, and respect the home like a guest should. I communicate often when needed and if something is happening

“Ananda has been walking our dog for a few weeks now and has been reliable and communicative all along. Our dog is an anxious guy who takes a while to warm up to new people and Amanda has been very patient with him.”

Emily D.

“My pup takes a long nap after every date with Adam! He’s calm and friendly - a natural, gentle leader. Adam’s attention and care have helped my timid puppy to gain confidence. Highly recommend!”

“Dennis, Thank you so much for your flexibility, patience and support of taking care of our fur kids !!!!”

About: I have over 6 years of experience caring for pets of all kinds, primarily dogs and cats. Dog breeds I’ve cared for include: German Shepherd, Frenchies, pitties, lab mixes, chihuahuas, terriers, and all of the sweet mixed mutts! I raised a German Shepherd puppy from 8 weeks to almost 3 years old and have lots of experience with puppies, younger dogs, and anxious breeds. My pet care experience includes dog walking, providing play & social skills time, feeding, and pet sitting. I have experience taking dogs to vet appointments, administering oral and topical medications, and following owner care instructions. I primarily work with youth during the week but I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to provide quality care to your pets as you share is needed! I can pet sit as requested as well. I value my client’s trust and will strictly adhere to the care guidelines that you provide. I always take extra care to make sure your pet is safe and away from harm. This means I’m mindful when walking your dog around the neighborhood, keeping an eye on other dogs, people, and cars, ensure gates and doors are always locked and closed, and keep away food or chemicals that are unsafe. I’ll always be clean and a respectful guest in your home!

“Elyse was amazing! Our normal dog walker bailed on us last minute, so we needed someone fast. Elyse went above and beyond making sure our dogs were comfortable with her and had great communication with us. She is super sweet and our pitties love her!!!”

About: I have had a varierty of pets all of my life from rabbits to dogs and love being out nature. I am very conscious of pets needs and make sure they feel at home in any setting. I am working part-time and have plenty of free time to care for your pets. Weekdays are preferable but I am open to most weekends. I have a spacious, clean and comfy apartment with room for both small and medium sized pets. There is plenty of outdoor space for nice neighborhood walks.

About: First time booking with Rover? Use this promo code for $20 off: QISHUZ24398 Hi there! My name's Qishu (🔑👟). I moved to Oakland in 2023 to pursue a new dream - chiropractic medicine (for animals and humans)! I'm currently a full-time student and will be until the end of 2027. I was previously a sales engineer with IBM. I'd love to help all the cat and dog mamas/papas out here just as I had in Boulder, CO and, before that, Chicago, IL. I grew up with dogs since the age of 8 - mixed breeds, yorkies, labs, pitbulls, shepherds, terriers, corgis, chihuahuas, frenchies.. the list goes on!! One of the moments that confirmed I’d always want to work with animals was in college, when I helped care for my roommate’s pitbull/red heeler mix, Bridget. She is the sweetest girl, though she struggled with anxiety and health issues. Her teeth were worn down from chewing rocks in her past life, and she’d carry a little blanket around whenever she felt distressed. With her special diet, supplements, and medications, Bridget taught me what it meant to truly care for a soul who’d been through so much. That experience deepened my love and empathy for all animals in a way that’s stayed with me ever since. I would be honored to give your pets the love, exercise, and attention they deserve while you're away! I'm a huge advocate for providing pets with a great quality of life - more than just basic food and shelter. I'm happy to do any small extraneous tasks like getting the mail, watering plants, etc. Just let me know in advance! For my cat parents out there: Because of my 3 kids (Kina, Nemr, & Freyja) and a short stint fostering, I'm seasoned in all things cat/kitten: socializing, changing litter, oral admin of meds, treating fleas, bathing, nail trimming, de-shedding, training (sit, high-five, stand, turn-around, kiss). Since I’m a full-time student, my Rover calendar is currently limited to weekends and school breaks. That said, many families are comfortable having my partner, Ian, join when he’s available—which allows for a little more flexibility with scheduling. It’s a wonderful setup because Ian works from home (and is basically a dog at heart!), so your pets will almost always have company and care. Rest assured, it will only be me caring for your pets unless we’ve discussed and agreed otherwise. I’m also happy to bring Ian to our meet & greet and provide references upon request! I am responsible for creating a safe space for pets in their home. I make sure that they are comfortable and their boundaries are respected and understood with the guidance of their body language and the wisdom from their humans. All animals deserve patience, love, and empathy.

“Heather was a hit with my senior dog Jax. He usually doesn't tolerate many people, but Heather was so kind and patient and after just one visit so easy to get along with Heather. Definitely will keep booking for the future”
