About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life! I regularly walked my neighbors dog around the neighborhood during covid. Dog sat a family friends dog while they were on vacation! I work well with big dogs as well! I’m currently a student. Mondays, tuesdays, wednesdays, thursdays work the best. Weekends depends on what time of the day. Please let me know what days you are needed. I can let your dog in and out of his/hers crate if needed. I can give fresh water and feed if needed as well. I will avoid any big parks with other dogs if your dog is reactive or scared!
About: I have a deep love and respect for every pet I care for. I adopted a sick puppy, and through patience and nurturing, he has blossomed into a beloved member of my family. This experience has taught me the profound bond that can develop between a pet and their caregiver, highlighting the importance of kindness and understanding in every interaction. I’ve also gained experience by showing care and compassion to animals in need around me, making sure they feel safe and comfortable. Each animal has its own unique personality and needs, and I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment for them all. My commitment to treating every pet with compassion ensures they feel loved and secure while in my care. I work remotely as a freelancer, which gives me the flexibility to integrate pet care into my daily routine seamlessly. This allows me plenty of time to spend with furry friends, playing, cuddling, and ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. My schedule enables me to provide a nurturing and engaging environment, ensuring that every pet feels comfortable and cared for throughout the day. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize their safety and comfort above all else. I follow their food schedule diligently to ensure they maintain a healthy routine. Engaging with pets through playtime and interactive activities is essential, as it keeps them stimulated and happy. Since I do not have pets of my own, I can provide a safe and distraction-free environment for them. Living in an apartment allows me to easily take them for walks outside in green areas, where they can explore and enjoy some fresh air. If needed, I can safely crate pets to provide them with a secure space to relax. My home is a welcoming environment filled with love and attention, ensuring every pet feels safe and at ease. Building trust is key, and I take the time to understand each pet's unique personality and needs, creating a positive experience for both them and their owners.
“Casey is amazing with my 6 month old Maltipoo. He has so much energy but she is so patient with him and is very respectful of my home. I’ve been booking walks with Casey for the last couple of weeks and she is always on time. She answers my phone calls and always takes lots of pictures during their walks.”

About: I have been surrounded by pets all my life whether it’s family, family friend, or friend’s pets, they’ve all loved me. I am also on top with my communication and very responsive so it will be a bonus to get good updates with your furball ! I have a cat that I take care of everyday; Properly fed, played, and cuddly with. I have a lot time spent with my cat and my availability is very open as I spend a lot of time being home. I take care of pets by following directions from owners, feeding them properly, providing them good attention, and will be able to communicate all the time about pets. I love taking pictures too so you can get cute pictures of your pets!
About: I've been taking care of dogs for over 10 years, including walking, overnight sitting and checking in to give exercise and feeding. I have a soft spot for dogs! I am available most days, evenings, including weekends, so I have a lot of free time to play with your dogs and take care of your kitties! I have a very large, completely fenced in yard. It has a huge area to run and I don't even mind if your dog likes to dig! It is completely secure, has open space to run as well as plenty of shade if needed.

About: I’ve cared for animals ranging from baby bunnies to horses, so I understand that every pet has different needs, personalities, and routines. While in college, I helped care for a stranger’s baby bunny for multiple nights on many occasions, making sure it stayed healthy, comfortable, and properly cared for. I also have experience around horses, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how important it is to stay calm and attentive with animals. Because of that background, caring for dogs and cats feels very natural to me. I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, walks, playtime, cleaning up, and giving pets lots of attention so they feel safe while you’re away. I’ve also been dog-sitting for relatives since I was a child, so being around pets and helping care for them has always been a normal part of my life. I genuinely enjoy bonding with animals and making sure they’re not just watched, but actually cared for. Pet care fits well into my routine as a college student because I currently have a flexible schedule and a good amount of free time outside of classes and studying. I’m able to consistently make time for feeding, walks or playtime, cleaning, and giving attention to pets throughout the day. Having open availability also allows me to adapt to unexpected needs and stay dependable with daily care responsibilities. When I pet sit, I make sure pets are cared for in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific routines the pet is used to. I pay attention to the pet’s behavior and comfort level to help them feel relaxed while their owner is away. I also make sure the home stays clean and secure by keeping doors and gates closed, removing anything unsafe, and maintaining a calm environment for the pet.
“Highly recommend!!! She went above and beyond walking my dog. She even agreed to come meet him beforehand to make sure it would be a good fit. She was so caring, attentive, and made sure my dog was safe and happy!! Sent lots of pics and updates”

About: I have been around pets all my life and have two spoiled and well trained cats. I am inspired by Jackson Galaxy the cat expert. Hello!

Caring for my dogs has given me valuable experience in understanding different temperaments and energy levels, making it natural for me to extend that same level of dedication and attention to other pets I care for.

“My 2 pups are always excited to go walks with Elena. She is so loving and kind to my dogs. She’s dependable and I’m just so grateful to have her since I work long hours and they need these walks”


About: It's time to put some steps on your pet's Fitbit. I'm a college student home for the summer and need an excuse to spend some time outside of the stacks and with something cuter than my term papers. I have a fenced in backyard that is moderately large and ready to run in, an air-conditioned house that we can sit and watch the news together (everyone likes an informed doggo), and I'm ready to let your dogs walk me (I could use the fresh air). I have cared for fluffy faces most of my life, and am an active volunteer with the Nevada Humane Society for those doggos without a good home. Animals have always been something of a passion of mine, which is why I'm majoring in Ecology to become a Wildlife Biologist. While your doggo might have lost its call to the wild, your animals needs and welfare are very important to me.
About: I own a neapolitan mastiff, Dachshund, and two cats so I know how to take care of and deal with all different sizes and shapes of dogs and cats.

University dog parents share their Rover experiences
You can tell right away they genuinely care. Communication was great throughout, with regular updates and photos that gave me real peace of mind. Kon was attentive to my pet’s routine and needs, and it really showed, my pet was relaxed, happy, and comfortable when she gots back from walk with Kon, which says everything. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
Casey has been amazing with Milo. She goes above and beyond to care for your pet. I’ve continued to book with Casey because she is attentive and does little things like refill his water bowl. I work a hectic schedule (12hrs shifts) so having a dog walker is a need. You won’t regret booking with Casey she is amazing.

Annalee has been such a life saver with walking my fur baby Hercules! I’ve been in tight situations where I’m asking for a walk just a few hours prior and she happily agrees which does not go unnoticed. She’s very diligent about providing photos on how the walk went, does a great lock up of my place, and is conscious of where to walk him depending on weather/other circumstances. I highly recommend her to any other owners looking for a dependable and trustworthy walker!
