About: Genuine love for pets. I naturally care for their well-being and love the affection I get from all animals. My family and I have 5 dogs of our own and recently we were adopted by our newly stray cat, Carey. We have been fostering dogs since Thanksgiving of 2017 and we have learned a lot how all pets deserve second chances and how each one of them heals at their own time. My dog walks are tailored to your pet needs, I will focus on the safety of your pet and myself during my service. You can trust that your pet will always be in loving and caring hands. Dog walking would be my primary activity next to my English classes. I will work with you to make sure that your pets needs are met in a timely manner. At home we have a fenced backyard and at my customers' homes I make sure that safety is a priority during my service. That means that I would make sure that your pet is properly secured and that is happy while we are together.

“Nandini sat with my cat Jinx for 4 nights and I only have good things to say about her. She kept me up to date on how he was doing and sent me photos at least 2 times a day. I came home to the house as I left it. I was able to enjoy my vacation. I will definitely use her anytime I’m away.”
“Heaven is always amazing with my animals. This is my second time booking with her. Booking with her is super easy, she’s very communicative, and I haven’t had one issue with my stays. She is so sweet and makes sure that the pets are comfortable and cared for, as well as making sure owners minds are at ease. I would 100% trust her with any of my pets! Thank you Heaven 😊”
“Olivia was wonderful and I highly recommend her. She took such great care of our two cats and our home while we were away. She had excellent communication with us which I really appreciated. Will definitely ask her to take care of our babes again on our next trip.”
“Rachel was THE BEST!! I truly could not have asked for a better person to watch our fur children. She went above and beyond in every way. Not only did she take amazing care of them, but she really took the time to play with them, learn their personalities, and make them feel loved while we were away. Every time I got a Rover notification, my heart felt so full because she sent so many thoughtful updates and pictures during each check-in. You could genuinely tell she cared about them as individuals, not just as pets she was checking on. And the Polaroids 😭 I actually cried when we got home because she took Polaroids of each of them. That meant so much to me and made me feel so comforted knowing our kiddos were genuinely cared for and loved on, not just “looked after.” I would absolutely trust Rachel with our pets again and cannot recommend her enough.”
“Natalie took such good care of my cat! When I had her come over to meet Ember, she asked all of the right questions and focused entirely on making sure her needs would be met. While I was gone, Natalie sent me photo and written updates which made me feel very confident in the sitter I chose. I would rebook her in a second!”
“Alejandra did a wonderful job with my girl! She did 30 minute drop in visits on my cat for 4 days while I was on vacation. She did an excellent job each time giving her treats, food, water and scooping her litter box. She spent time giving my girl lots of pets and scratches and love. We had a great meet and greet and she followed all my instructions carefully. I appreciated her excellent communication and she sent me several pictures from each day’s visit. She took great care of and attention to my girl. Highly recommend and will book her again in the future!”
“Mikayla is amazing! She has been so good about keeping me informed every time she visits my babies and has really put my mind at ease every time she goes to see them. I’m so grateful for her sending me all the pictures of my kitties during her visits and her communication with me throughout her visits.”
“Sarah is awesome! This was my first time using Rover and I did not know what to expect. Sarah made things very easy. I asked her to stop in twice a day to check on my cat while I was out of town. She is a great communicator and sent daily updates. She did a great job and I will definitely seek her out when needed again.”
“Rachel took great care of our cat while we were gone for about a week. She was very responsive in our request and helpful with any questions we had before and after we booked the check ins.

I highly recommend her to anyone needing pet care and will definitely be reaching back out for assistance on future trips.”

“Harper’s day care experience was awesome! What a convenient way for me to get scans and tests done at MDA and big have to worry about him while I’m at those appointments. Tommie & Jeffrey make drop-off and pick-up super easy and efficient.”
“Jocelyn is always so accommodating and ready to help me with my dog. It’s apparent she and her family truly care for dogs and treats them like their own! So many updates are sent during the day, it’s so reassuring for me!”
“As a psychiatrist and devoted dog dad to two Nederlandse Kooikerhondjes—a relatively rare breed—finding someone qualified and experienced enough to care for my dogs while I was away at a medical conference was not something I took lightly. My dogs are my absolute world and their unique needs and high energy levels require someone who is truly attentive, active, and dedicated. Mandy exceeded every expectation I had. My pups stayed with her and she maintained their routines flawlessly. She kept up with their high energy demands without missing a beat. The abundance of photos and updates she sent throughout the week were so reassuring—I could clearly see my girls were happy, well exercised, and completely at ease in her care. The long walks she took them on daily were exactly what they needed and I could tell they absolutely loved every minute with her. As someone who professionally understands the importance of trust and reliability, I can say with complete confidence that Mandy embodies both. If you are looking for a sitter who will treat your dogs with the same love and dedication you would, she is simply the best. We will absolutely be booking with Mandy again without hesitation!" — Dr. Khan | Psychiatrist & Proud Dad to Two Nederlandse Kooikerhondjes 🐾❤️”
“Lily loved Adrian right away 🥰 Adrian was very easy going and cordial. His time and service gave our visit to MD Anderson some relief knowing Lily was being well taken care of.”
“I’m a first time dog owner and I was beyond impressed with Chelsie with our 6 month old puppy. She would send pictures and kept us updated. She was even willing to come pick up our puppy instead of us having to meet her at her place once. We will continue to use Chelsie in the future.”
“Burak was so fantastic with my dog! He was a wonderful communicator and sent plenty of photos and updates. He administered my dog’s medicine and went above and beyond to care my dog.”
“Borof had a great time with Tatianna’s. She was extremely responsive, accommodating, and very nice to Borof. Sent me lots of pictures and videos at regular intervals. Her dog Millie is about the same size as Borof, and they’re both about the same age. So they tired each other out, and had a great time playing. Above all, she was able to feed my dog who’s one of the pickiest eaters you could know. This made me extra happy. Borof came home very happy and tired. Would definitely recommend her, and I’d use her again!”
“Shelley is great with my dog! She takes him on walks, keeps me updated throughout the day, and shares details of the day at pickup. She has pet sit during the day for me a few times now and every time we turn into her place my dog gets excited!”
“Shamareya was extremely communicative and very understanding of my dog’s specific potty training challenges, which I know many others may have been hesitant to take on. Her home is beautiful, spacious, and offers ample indoor and outdoor areas for dogs to enjoy. My dog came home exactly as I dropped him off, which reassured me he was in great hands throughout his stay. Highly recommend Shamareya!!”
“Brooke is incredibly nice and quick in her communication. Really appreciated that she was able to work with us last minute and sent us pics of our dog happily hanging out at her home. Will definitely be using her services again!”
“Kyla is very patient and she listens to all your needs for your pet and follows them diligently. She is very understanding about owner’s concerns and needs and sends photos regularly to feel comfortable and easy about their pet. She plays with pet, takes them on walks and loves them.”
“Adriana was very communicative and kept my mind at ease. She was so nice and concerned about any ailments Friday had. She was very flexible with my schedule as well. I would definitely book her again!”
“Jennifer was awesome! Took great care of our two dogs, kept us updated, and made everything super easy. She took a lot of cute pics of my furry babies. I Will definitely book again.”
“Darius was a god sent. I was visiting Houston from Dallas with my husband and puppy. I stayed at a dog friendly hotel but even going for breakfast made my puppy very anxious alone in the room we decided to use over for the first time and I urgently contacted Darius. He was very prompt to respond and accommodated everything. He was very vigilant for for example I feed my dog fresh food, which I forgot to tell him, but he had already put the food in the fridge. He has a very sweet and loving puppy, and I could visibly see mylo happy. If I ever returned to Houston, Darius is my guy. Milo has never been around strangers, but he was extremely comfortable with Darius. He also sent updates every so often and was prompted to answer anything I asked. I don’t think twice.”
“Keith and Rachel were super welcoming to our dog, they walked her even during the day, gave her lots of attention and care, and sent frequent photos. We felt completely at easy and would happily book with them again.”
“Amauche was great with my puppy! She was always excited to get dropped off! I will definitely leave my puppy with Amauche again. Thank you so much again Amauche!”

“Patricia has been walking my dog for almost a year now and I can’t say enough good things, I’ve even had neighbors give me compliments on how much activity my dog is getting while I’m away! She’s also extremely reliable and has been available in a pinch when I’ve had extenuating circumstances and needed last minute help. Would highly recommend!”
“Alejandra was great! We have a puppy who needs patience with her walks as she’s interested in every smell. Alejandra gave Rosie time and was allowed her to walk at her own pace.”
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, from farm animals and barn cats to household pets. I’m trusted by family and friends to pet sit dogs, cats, and birds, and I focus on keeping pets happy, safe, and consistent with their routines. I also have experience as a veterinary assistant/technician, with skills in animal handling, basic medical care, and recognizing signs of illness—so you can feel confident your pet is in knowledgeable, attentive hands. I just moved across the country, and I am fully free to take care of your pets until I find a job in the veterinary care industry. I have excellent time management skills, and I am willing to work with your pet's schedules and needs and adjust my own plans as needed. I am willing to adapt to you and your pet's routine and needs to keep them happy and relaxed during the duration of the sitting.
About: My name is Jennifer, I’m a big animal lover and I’ve been pet sitting for the last 8yrs. I have an alaskan malamute and 3 guinea pigs of my own but I’ve taken care of many other pets. I’m willing to walk, feed, bathe and play with your furry friends. I’m the owner of my own petsitting business, I love taking care of animals and available at anytime when needed depending on my schedule. I always make sure to respond and communicate with pet parents I’m a big animal lover so when I take care of pets, I get excited just getting to know and take care of them. It’s always my #1 concern that the pets i’m sitting are fully taken care of and safe.
“Bailee was so wonderful with my girls! She met up with us a day prior to ensure my dogs would feel comfortable hanging out with her the next day, she was so reliable and sweet and I felt so safe and comfortable trusting her with my girls. I can’t wait for them to hang out again!”
About: I’ve helped take care of my relatives' dogs while they were on vacation, and I used to volunteer at a local dog rescue shelter in my hometown, where I helped with dog walking, playtime, and cleaning. I also had a cat for 10 years, and during the last two years of his life, he developed chronic kidney failure. I gave him daily subcutaneous fluids and oral medication with care and patience. That experience taught me not only medical skills, but also the emotional side of caring for a pet who’s sick or aging. I'm a student and most of my classes are online. This gives me the flexibility to be at home and available throughout the day. I want to use that time meaningfully by spending it with pets! Taking care of animals brings me so much joy and balance, especially during a busy school schedule. I believe it's a win-win for both me and the pets I care for. I'm more of a gentle and patient pet carer. I like to take time to understand their routines and preferences to make them feel safe and comfortable around me. If I’m in the client’s home, I follow instructions carefully and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, clean litter or potty breaks.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs cats and other kinds of animals since I was young girl growing up in a ranch lifestyle family it’s always been one of favorite therapeutic times Currently a student looking to make money while in school I do have another job but I have lots of free time and instead of a second job I rather be cuddled up with a furry friend I treat pets like they’re my own I love playing and cuddling and giving love to animals they’re so pure and sharing that energy with another living source is humbling
“When she is available, Graciela is an awesome dog walker! Follows instructions, sends a very detailed and cute “report card” from each walk. She is very communicative of any concerns. Use her M- Fri and my pup and I are very appreciative.”
“Brenna was awesome! She was very communicative to let a nervous dog dad know exactly how my pup was doing, took great care of my dog, and made me feel much more at ease while I was at work. We will be having her come back for sure! Thanks again, Brenna!”
“Dani was great ! And she even offered to walk sky further than I requested on their first walk together. She is thorough and communicates clearly. We appreciate Dani and look forward to more walks with her!”
“Annie was amazing! She took great care of my 4 year old French bulldog when I was gone for a few days. My dog loved her and she made sure to send me updates and pictures on every walk. Will definitely be re booking Annie on a consistent basis.”
“Olivia is awesome! Extremely communicative and sent me photos during both walks. Went above and beyond to make sure any requests I might have had were taken care of. Would highly, highly recommend!”
“Anna is great! I trust her with my baby and will even take super late requests. If you cannot be home and need your little one to be taken for a walk, I would pick her over anyone in the area.”
“Chelsea was amazing!! This was my first time leaving Bella home while away on vacation. I couldn't have picked a better person to check in on her. She sent many photos and I could tell my Bella was having a blast. Chelsea even stopped by extra times when she was nearby to spend time with Bella. I highly recommend trusting her with your fur babies!”
About: Hi! I’m Heaven! I have 4+ years of pet care experience. Throughout college, I would pet sit for family, friends, and friends who of friends who needed affordable pet care; feeding, walking, medicating, and exercising, including older puppies and senior dogs, cats, and reptiles. Meet & greets were and are mandatory with new clients. I was also a dog walker for the Franklin County Dog Shelter as well as for a small company, Pet Sitting by Tisha in Ohio before moving to Texas in 2022. I am currently a full-time employee. My current schedule is Sunday, Tuesday, and Wednesday from 7a-3:30p, Monday 7a-6:30p (which I can request to be a normal shift if necessary), and Thursday 7a-12:30p. My off days are Fridays and Saturdays. I can provide boarding or house sitting care on any day of the week as long as your pup is okay to wait longer periods between potty breaks. On any day of the week if afternoon or evening drop in care is needed, such as walking or feeding/medicating, I am able and willing to do that. I currently live in an apartment with a bark park. I would take the pups on a morning walk, midday/afternoon trip to the park on grounds, and an evening walk and potty break. Feeding/medicating would occur on the schedule you provide me with for your pup.
“Kendall was so great! Perfect with Shorty, great on checking in, flexible when either of our schedules needed some changes. I would recommend her for any and all dog walk needs, especially in South Philly! Yay Kendall!”
