My pup is still getting used to unfamiliar people walking him outside. Rachel’s shown a lot of patience as they get to know each other more and he’s warming up little by little. I’m so glad I found her to help out.

My dog Rosie, is a big, very strong and high energy Great Dane. Steve does a great job walking her, allowing her to explore and have fun while keeping her under safe control as well. Rosie loves her walks with Steve and even gets excited when she sees his car coming down our street ! Rosie and I will definitely be calling Steve again!

Kiana is the best walker we ever had for Stella. She was on top of everything with quick communication. I will continue to re-book her for future walks and highly recommend!

I can’t say enough good things! I reached out last minute—literally the night before—after my original dog walker had to cancel due to a family emergency. Travian came through bright and early at 6:30 AM with zero hesitation. Total lifesaver.

Bailee was amazing! Maverick loved his walks with her and could not wait for the next one. She really went the extra mile to ensure Maverick was well taken care of, like put ice cubes in his water so he could stay cool after walks. 😊 Maverick and I are forever grateful we found you, and hope to see you again in the future. ❤

To begin, Sagine is naturally compassionate, patient, and incredibly responsible. Sagine strong sense of responsibility makes her incredibly reliable. She has the ability to not only meet the piratical need of those she care for but also to provide the emotional support and connection that truly makes a difference in their life.

Amy Gargin is one of the most responsible, attentive, and caring people that I know. She loves animals of all sorts, but dogs hold a special place in her heart. She has owned and cared for dogs her entire life, and there is no one I would trust more to take care of my pet. I am certain that she would be an asset to the Rover team.

Mikalia has been walking our dog, Biscuit, for a couple months and has been absolutely wonderful. She's reliable, caring and Biscuit gets so excited every time she sees her. We couldn’t ask for a better person to trust with our pup! My wife also loves her so much because Mikalia has always been there for emergency pickups.

Karen was great- immediately responded to us when family emergency made it impossible to walk our dog. Baba very shy with strangers and warmed up to Karen immediately. Could not have been happier and will look to Karen in the future when we need a walker.
