Dog Walking in Walker

About: I trained my two girls on my own. It took patience and consistent attention but they are the best girls. Worth it! I know how to tend to anxious dogs as my Aussie can be occasionally reactive. I’m working full-time as a paralegal! I work from home Monday, Thursday, and Friday. So I have flexibility to schedule your fur babies in during those days. 🥰🐾 Weekends are OPEN! I plan to care for your fur babies as if they were mine! Protective of their space; cautious of their surroundings; setting them up for success—always!

About: I've been around cats and critters my whole life. Right now I have my sweet Torti Twix and Noche, my mama's boy. I recently lost my soul kitty, Bronson, and would love to be surrounded by more kitties again. I used to have a leopard gecko named Pedro, so bring on your scaled friends as well. Rats, buns, whatever you have! I accept ALL dog breeds! Find me on Facebook at Lor's Pet Sitting! I also volunteer at a no-kill shelter called Focus on Ferals. I have experience humanely administering pills/oral medication. *Trained in feline first aid* A drop-in includes: feeding, potty time/litterbox cleaning, playtime, love & cuddles, enrichment activities, medication administration (if needed), light housework (sweeping, trash, counters, etc), and daily updates with photos/videos. Rover is my full-time gig, which means I'm flexible with my schedule. I'm available mainly for overnight cat boarding and cat/dog drop-ins. I'd also love to walk your dog, whether they're big or small (I love them all)! Please inquire about services provided. I accept ALL dog breeds! My specialty is working with shy or skittish kitties. I'm patient enough to get on their level, approach slowly, earn their trust, and let them know I'm a safe person. It's incredibly rewarding work. I'm also a sucker for the elderly pets.

“Great job! Will definitely use again!!”

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was a young child. I have experience working at a doggy daycare/boarding facility as well as extensive experience working with animal welfare groups. I have 2 children who are in school all day and a husband who works from home. In the evening I am able to care for your pets also. I can currently come to your home to care for your pets. I find that pets tend to fare better with a pet sitter if they stay in their own home, a familiar place for them.

About: I understand how stressful it is leaving your dog or having to board him or her while away. I have experience working with Rover, and I would like to resume providing pet care services. I've been around animals most of my life. I have also cared for the pets of friends and family, including my six-year-old English cream golden retriever, Maxwell. He's friendly and loves playing with other dogs. I would love to be the trusted person to take care of and pamper your pet. Leave your pet with me and we can go for walks, play ball , Frisbee, or just relax. I will provide your dog with a quiet, loving home environment with plenty of attention and care to fit their personality. I am currently home majority of the time to care for your pet. I work three out of the five days per week at home. I am available on weekends. I am in office two days per week. I drive home for Max to to take a break on my lunch hour. I will provide your pet with a quite, safe environment. If boarding your pet I will provide him or her with care that will be tailored to their needs and personality.

“My dog is pretty anxious when it comes to new people/being around people when I’m not present, but Jasmine is so great with him! She was able to meet him prior to becoming his dog walker and he loved her instantly.”

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs of all ages. Friends and neighbors have trusted me to walk, dog sit, and provide drop-in visits for playtime and company. I currently work third shift, primarily on weekends, which gives me plenty of weekday availability, along with some weekend availability, for walks and play time! I will care for your pups based on their walking routines, and if approved, I am willing to take them to nearby parks or trails for more exercise, depending on the dog's energy levels.

“Lauren is the best! She came for a meet and greet before we scheduled and milo immediately loved her! We will be using Lauren again in the future!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have a cat of my own. I also help take care of my mom’s elderly dog. All animals have a different personality and I love to get to understand them! I’ve administered medication and am good at calming animals in stressful situations. I would love to meet your pet… they all deserve the utmost respect! I work part time and am excited to welcome your pet into my weekly schedule! I’m available for drop in’s or walking most days of the week. I am happy to provide customized care for your pet in the comfort of his or her home. Every animal has specifics needs and I’m willing to go above and beyond to keep your pet at ease and thriving.

“First time Rover users, so we did a walk with Lillie to get Odin acclimated before house sitting for a week next week. Lillie handled Odin’s confusion very well and took him around the subdivision and took notes for the upcoming stay.”

“Angela gives so much love to our sweet pup, great after visit summaries and awesome pics!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have always had a genuine love for animals and caring for them. I’ve provided both overnight and daytime care for dogs through pet sitting for family and friends and understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pet. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, including puppies and senior dogs, and can follow medication or special care routines if needed. I provide walking, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention to help pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am currently home from school, so I have plenty of time to play with your pup! I understand how important consistency is for pets and always do my best to follow their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for. My goal is always to provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos for added peace of mind.

About: I have more than 10 years experience working at dog daycares, grooming, and sitting/walking dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I am comfortable with administering medication both orally and injections. I've I am always trying to educate myself and others about reading dog behaviors and the best ways to react to situations. I am an artist by trade so my work hours are very flexible. If I'm sitting in your home, I will stick to your pet's normal routine as closely as possible to give them a sense or normalcy and comfort. My more than 10 years of experience have prepared me for almost any situation. I am a big proponent of safety first especially when it comes to your pets interacting with other animals, escape artists, and counter surfers getting into harmful things.

“Was my first time using rover and Ariel was quick to respond and easy to communicate with which made it so easy and stress free! Maggie looked happier then ever and was well taken care of!”

About: Grew up with a house full of pets, including several Greyhounds & chickens. 15+ years pet-sitting experience. Former therapy dog handler. Proud cat mom to 11-year-old Finley. Experienced with medications and special healthcare needs. I work as a flight nurse where my schedule is 5 days on and then I get 10 days off. On my days off I am very flexible to drop in anytime of the day including multiple visits. As an avid traveler, I have had to leave Finley home with pet sitters and it can be stressful. I am reliable when following instructions, will provide playtime, and give medications as needed, and will keep you updated with messages, photos, and answers to any question to ensure they’re well cared for.

“Katherine was an awesome dog walker. She was punctual, communicated well and tracked the walk with a rover card. I would love to have her walk Moe again soon.”

“Tayler has been super helpful, was able to accomodate my 11th hour requests to check in on my dog, feed and walk him. My dog appears to have taken to her quite well.”

About: While volunteering at the Humane Society of West Michigan I gained experience walking and caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve also cared for multiple pets while nannying the past three years. YOUR DOG GETS… Walks, according to your pups needs depending on activity level. Play time with their favorite toys. Feeding according to their normal scheduled time. Basic grooming, if your dog sheds I’m happy to keep them brushed. Any medication provided can be given to your pet as well. YOU GET… Peace of mind knowing your pet is safe and well cared for. A clean home, everything will always be put back exactly how it was found and I will clean up after your pet. Fast communication with updates on your pets day. During this semester all of my classes are online I have plenty of time to work around your needs. Since I will be attending the police academy in Winter 2025, I don’t have a work schedule until then. I care for your pets the same way I’d care for my own. I’ve owned a rescue and frenchie growing up that were my best friends. Learning what makes your pet feel comfortable is very important. I have a gentle demeanor that most animals instantly warm up to. For overnight care in your home, I understand how stressful it can be to find someone trustworthy so you can relax on your vacation. With almost two years of experience interning at GRPD, I’m heading into a career as an Officer. I can assure you safety is my number one priority in caring for your home.

“Ricardo is amazing! First time using Rover and I absolutely picked the right person. He scheduled a meet-and-greet to introduce himself and get to know my dog. They were completely at ease with each other. Ricardo’s a proactive communicator, provided regular updates, and was always friendly and punctual. I highly recommend.”
