“Caroline was super accommodating with our young puppy's (and our) needs. She was up for us walking along with her, so our puppy could get feel more comfortable around her for the first meeting. Definitely will be requesting Caroline again for help with our puppy!”
“I highly recommend David as a dog walker! He’s always punctual, quick to respond, and incredibly flexible, making the entire process smooth from the get-go. David treats my home with respect and shows genuine affection for Memphis. He takes him on long walks that leave my pup happily worn out, which I truly appreciate. I also do love the regular photos he sends, and they reassure me of their time together. Overall, it’s been a fantastic experience so far with no issues whatsoever. David would be a wonderful addition to your dog’s routine!”
“Dan is a fantastic dog walker, he is so good with our pup. We will definitely be booking with him again! So happy to see pics and read updates of their daily adventures!”
“Ricky helped me out last minute when I threw out my back by walking my energetic goldendoodle multiple mornings in a row. He was timely, easygoing, and flexible and pup was excited every time he came to the door!”
“Rebecca has been wonderful with my skiddish dog and also with my boisterous overly friendly dog. She’s reliable and provides detailed updates. It is apparent she has a true love of dogs! ?”
“Andrew was on time and totally respectful. He was very calm with our hyper puppy and did a great job of letting the pup come/warm up to him. We had a few requests (sitting at sidewalks and heeling by people) that make walking the pup a little more work. Andrew was more than happy to work with all of our requests. Definitely recommend!”
“Emily is lovely and my Maddie immediately felt comfortable with her. I was able to schedule with her same day which is great. We will definitely be contacting her regularly. ?”

About: I'm very comfortable with dogs and I enjoy getting to know their personalities and spending time with them. I have experience with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs & cats requiring palliative care, ensuring they remain comfortable and well cared for. I have also boarded dogs while clients were out of town. I would love to brighten your pet's day, reach out with a request! I'm a freelance worker so my schedule is very flexible, please feel free to reach out and I can adjust to your schedule and needs! I make sure each fur baby feels welcomed and as comfortable as they would be at home. They can lay on furniture and roam in a comfy space and soak up the sun.
About: I have been providing dog and cat care for friends and family over 30 years. I am very attentive to animal emotional and physical needs. I am currently unemployed and available at any time with reasonable advanced notice. I can do overnight or day sitting as well as potty break/walking visits. I have plenty of outdoor space to take pets on leashed walks. I also enjoy taking dogs on nature hikes with difficulty based on age and ability.
About: Hi! My name’s Misa and I’ve been an animal lover since I was a kid. Once my family got our first dog when I was 8 years old, we were inseparable. She was my partner in crime~ Now I have a cat of my own and he owns my heart! He’s pretty food motivated so I clicker trained him, and he knows about 10 tricks :D He also has some health issues so I’m familiar with giving cats medication. I recently graduated with my master’s from the UR and I’m still in the process of looking for a job. Which means my schedule is super flexible to hang out with your pet! I’m detail oriented, reliable, and respectful of your space and your pets~ I'm currently on the job hunt after finishing my master's degree so my schedule is very flexible to accommodate drop-ins in the morning or afternoon as well as the evening~ I'll do my best to adhere to your pet's normal routine and of course be respectful of their boundaries. I'll follow any instructions given and reach out if any further clarification is needed!
“Teddy’s newest friend is John! I see that John is Very efficient and he accepts Teddy for who is. Our little concern is always Ted’s safety and John is firm but friendly with him.. Gold Stars to John!”
“Veronica let us know promptly when we had an issue with our leash/collar to keep our dog Biscuit safe and sound! Thanks for being so great and being our go-to dog walker.”
“I can’t begin to express how grateful I am to have met Portia. She is SO skilled with challenging dogs, as evidenced by her work with my pup. Winston is known at his vet as “that dog (somewhat affectionately😆). He is a reactive, anxious rescue who takes a very long time to warm up to people; I knew it might be a struggle to find a regular walker for him. Portia has been incredibly patient, kind, and diligent in working with Winston. I’m thrilled that she’s earned his trust, because now I can stay at work all day without having to worry about running back during my lunch break to walk him. I’ve told many of my pet-parent friends about Portia, since she’s so incredible with Winston- I imagine she’s the same with other animals! I give Portia my very highest rating; Winston and I are incredibly lucky to have her in our lives!”
“Hannah is amazing and our pup loves her walks/visits with her! The photos and updates are lovely and we are grateful for the excellent care our nutty lab receives from Hannah!”
About: I’ve been a dog owner all my life. My first dog, Sam, came from a shelter on Long Island. She was the sweetest lab! Since then, I’ve been caring for my grand-dogs. I love animals! I am retired, so I have a flexible schedule. I currently do not own any animals. I’m ready to be available for walks and boarding. I have a nice home in Corn Hill with a fenced-in yard. My home is clean and not cluttered. It’s a perfect spot for your pup!

Upper Falls dog parents share their Rover experiences
Rebecca leaves the absolute best notes about her visits!! It really puts a smile on my face when I’m away from my dog and cat but missing them. She also gives them a ton of love—they are happy as clams with her and they get excited when she comes over to see them. Highly recommend Rebecca!!
Anika is phenomenal! Treated my very anxious pup with the same love and patience I would give him. Reliable and communicates well with me. My daughter enjoyed your company. I highly recommend and will be using her services again. Thank you so much Anika for making my first time away easy for me!

- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
- Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
- Cute photos and a personalized note
