About: I care for dogs of all ages—from puppies to seniors—with personalized, positive reinforcement training. Currently pursuing behavior modification certification, I have experience with obedience training (AKC Canine Good Citizen / Urban Canine Good Citizen), sports (Fast CAT, agility), trick training, scent work, reactivity, and separation anxiety. I also hold canine first aid training and am prepared for emergencies. Friendly, patient, and attentive, I provide tailored care to meet each dog’s unique needs. Dog Walks (Neighborhood - 30 & 60 min, Nearby Parks - 60 min) - Monday, Wednesday, Friday: AM, Midday, PM - Tuesday, Thursday: AM, Midday - Saturday, Sunday: AM, PM Drop-In Visits (Play-Time, Companionship, Lunches, Potty Breaks, Check-Ins) - Monday, Wednesday, Friday: AM, Midday, PM - Tuesday, Thursday: AM, Midday - Saturday, Sunday: AM, PM I can accommodate breakfast and dinner schedules, daily walks, and playtime based on their needs. Whether a structured routine—for training or specific needs—or a flexible schedule for house checks and companionship, I tailor care to fit each pet's routine and the pet parent’s preferences. For Rover clients, I provide in-home care by visiting the pet in their own environment. I prioritize understanding each dog’s routines, feeding needs, and training rules to ensure consistency and comfort. I typically work within the neighborhood or nearby parks for walks, but occasional off-site outings to parks or pet-friendly stores are available if suitable and agreed upon. As I am not currently offering boarding, all care is provided in the client's home, focusing on maintaining a familiar, safe, and enjoyable routine for each dog.


About: I have grown up caring for pets my whole life. I had several cats as well as dogs as a child and I learned from a young age to both respect and engage these animals as part of our family in a gentle and loving manner. I believe that taking the time to allow an animal get to know you and accept your energy and presence is most important for quality care. Taking the time to do this allows me to get to know each animal and get a sense of their personality and needs. I have quick reflexes and I am a very active person, so not only will I keep your pet safe, but I will also ensure that they are well-exercised and happy during their outing.


“I have an energetic rescue puppy who I recently adopted. My puppy is still getting used to her new surroundings, and is a bit all over the place. Wanda has been an excellent help by not only walking my puppy (Yoncé), but spending quality time with her. Days that Wanda spends with her, Yoncé is calmer and seems more at ease. Wanda is professional, timely, and compassionate. I strongly recommend her”


“Tatiana was very kind and patient with our puppy! She took the time to introduce herself to us and to Luna before their walk to make sure Luna was comfortable. Luna was excited to walk with her. We will definitely be reaching out to Tatiana again for future walks!”


About: Hello there! My name is Romon, you can also call me Griz. I suppose my friends see me as the momma or papa bear of the group haha. Anyway I've been taking care of my friend's, family's, and of course personal 'furry best friends'. I have a background in personal training and fitness. Never really ran into a dog that didn't like or respect me at least after the first couple treats or games I was able to play with them. Recently lost two friends one moved away the other, Sasha; a poodle mix of 12 years, passed away I was luckily able to spend more time with her during 2020 before she had to go. Her memories are still with me and I know many are back to work and wish they could spend more time with their newest pups. We can work together to make sure they're, well taken care of, and I just wanted to help out and lessen the load of watching over these wonderful epitomes of joy and energy. I've walked, sitted, played with, slept besides, and even cleaned up after all sorts of dogs from puppyhood to very senior dogs, 10lbs to 100+lbs believe it or not, can't seem to get a break from them, which I don't mind! Lastly I hope to get to know your fuzzy yet amazing family members on a professional and even better, personal level. Feel free to message for any questions I pay very close attention to any special instructions. I've recently found great streams of income im able to maintain at home while working on my online degree Fortunately my major for the 3rd semester in a row is online only. My schedule is pretty open and flexible so I wanted to make the most of my situation and again the main thing is to help out new or out of practice pet owners. Im free at all hours of day and night outside of a select few evenings where I train clients to achieve their fitness goals. Mostly online so feel free to reach out and schedule with me if youd like recurring services. We'll make it work. Im a capable and loving pet owner that doesn't mind breaking a sweat. I would love to keep your fur baby busy AND happy whether its a small walk with portable water bowls, at home self made doggy puzzles to keep their minds sharp and busy, even if I am tired, for those longer sessions. I have access and experience to great doggy parks equipped with fencing and great walking areas, and lots of car space for those longer trips or incase of an emergency where I have to safely transfer your fluffy children quickly. I have a lot of experience to share and rely on too much to list here but go ahead and quiz me at Fanaticallymotivated email on google for those of you new or unsure of my services with the Rover service provider. I hope to work with you both and take care of any worries.

About: As a passionate pet owner, I understand the joy and responsibility of keeping your dog happy, healthy, and active. With a love for all breeds and a commitment to personalized care, I offer dog walking services that go beyond just a quick stroll. Whether it’s a lively adventure or a calm, scenic walk, I treat your furry friend like my own—ensuring they get the exercise, attention, and affection they deserve. Let me help give your dog the best walk of their day! I work from home and have a car. I’m open to early morning walks and evenings. I can also provide support during most weekends and holidays. One pet has a special diet and since I have 3 in total, they all eat the same. That way I know whether any issues are truly with one pet or there is another issue with the environment or food.

About: I taken care of my dog since 12 years old, i did take care two dogs before it was fun! I’m surely I’m very patient person I’m a dance teacher so I’m college student, I’m available on the summer :) i schedule my day around feeding times, walks, playtime, and any other specific needs each pet might have. I make sure to set aside quality time for each pet so they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether I’m visiting a client’s home or caring for pets in my own I will fit your accommodations, home, I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I make sure to follow any specific instructions given by the pet owner, such as feeding schedules, medication needs, favorite toys, and any behavioral quirks. I give pets lots of love and attention, keep their environment clean, and make sure they get enough exercise and playtime. Whether it’s in my home or theirs, I treat every pet like they’re my own.

About: Reliable and attentive pet sitter with proven experience providing comfort and care to both dogs and cats. I have been the proud fur mama to my own puff balls: Ghost, a male Cane Corso (May 2020 – April 2025, crossed the rainbow bridge), and Gumbo, a male domestic shorthair tabby cat, currently 7 months old (adopted at 2 months). I have the patience and adaptability to care for all temperaments, including shy, stubborn, anxious, skittish, high-energy, and aggressive pets. My priority is to tailor my care style to meet your pet's needs, ensuring the most enjoyable stay possible and putting both you and your pet at ease. I am willing to facilitate any training or routines you want to maintain for your pet while you’re away, administer medicine, and provide light grooming (hair detangling/combing, baths, teeth brushing, etc.) for an added fee. My cat is free-roaming and very friendly, but I can provide isolated areas for your cat(s) and mine if needed. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies, whether they stay with me or I drop in for some fun fur auntie time! Pet care is a normal part of the routine, recent long time dog owner (5 years, passed rainbow bridge 04/2025). I work from home 2 days a week and typically home on weekends. Was owner to an adult mastiff/cane corso and so, regular walks, attention, and play are a part of my daily and weekly routine. I have stubborn pup who scales the spectrum between very obedient to going full on sas and temper tantrum, so I am comfortable with all types of temperaments of dogs. If you allow joint play, I will allow it supervised by myself, or if your pup prefers 1:1 time - I will divide crate and play time between my dog and yours separately. Large dogs - will alternate with my dog having one be crated at night and throughout the day outside of scheduled play time, walks, and potty breaks to allow less frustration across both for freedom.and saftey, but I can accommodate dogs who are not crate trained and crate my pup if needed - his crate is like his tiny house - he enjoys it. Small dogs, unless otherwise requested, will take priority for free reign throughout the day/uncrated. I live in a quiet neighborhood, much traffic, and it has quiet short walking trails with trees; I have a small fenced back yard as well for roaming. I do not board rottweilers, huskies, malamutes, or male pit bulls due to my dog's disposition of them, but can do check-ins and 1:1 dog walks with these breeds.

Just let me know when you need me, and I'll be there to watch over your beloved pet with enthusiasm and dedication.

About: I am excited to welcome new dogs to hang out with me, my family and our dog. I have been a dog mom to our furry baby for the last 5 years. She recognizes me as the mom of the “pack”. Wherever I go she goes and she loves to have playmates around. Who knows, maybe your pup can be her new BFF (best furry friend). I have a flexible work schedule and can adjust as needed. Each morning would begin with a walk either for stretching or for potty time. Additional walks will be provided throughout the day. If you have a crate or pen for your pup, you should definitely bring it with you. When I leave home, I put our fury baby in her gated pen. Plenty walks will be provided and I have a lot of space outdoors for such activity. Please provide paw wipes and poop bags.

About: I'm an empty-nester... I grew up with having pets and my once place of employment is a pet friendly hotel. As pets walk through my hotel they come to my office to greet me "hello" before check-in. Recently, we had a family pet, a mini poodle. 3yrs ago he passed away from cancer. Haven't quite decided yet to get another dog but would love to walk & care for your dog & show the same TLC. Thank you for the opportunity, Angela *** Other Services: baby/house sit, room organizer/design I'm currently working from home which allows me to care for your pet upon your scheduled days of request during the week and or weekends. I have a fenced yard. I just recently adopted a 2yr old poodle so both will have play days or if need be I can crate the dogs for safety concerns.
