“Patricia is absolutely wonderful! Always on time. Very patient. Great communicator—even sends photos of our guys with updates about the visits. They just love her! The peace of mind she provides is immeasurable.”
“Alexa is awesome! She's always on time, asks if Moose or I need anything (I just had knee replacement surgery) and brushes Moose after ever walk! He's always happy to see her! She's a keeper!”
“Laura has been wonderful to help with walking my two boxers Daisy and Izzy. She has been very accommodating and has went above her obligations as well as showing love and affection to my girls. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone I know!”
“Akua was great with my dogs and we’re glad we chose to use Rover for our trip this time the dogs seemed more happy and comfortable and not stressed being home vs a kennel/boarding overnight and I didn’t have to worry about a vet bill or them getting sick while we were away. They enjoyed all of their walks and being able to be in their own environment.”
About: Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. Friends, neighbors, and loved ones have all sought my care for many years for both their dogs and cats. Being a teacher, I have the entire summer to help care for pets, so choose me for your pet care needs! I have very open availability for walks, daily care, and overnight care. I work as an elementary school teacher during the majority of the year, but my summers are completely free! Each pet and each household is different, so catering to the needs of each pet is a priority. Following diet instructions, making sure pets get proper play and exercise time, and lots and lots of love are all priorities of mine.
“Teddy loved Monty right away which is unusual because w/ men he’s usually very territorial and barks at the person until they placate him w/ a hand sniff and pets, but as soon as I opened the door to let Monty in, Teddy acted as if he already knew him. He also left me the number of times he pottied both #1s and #2s. Lastly, he took pictures of their walk, and Teddy looked very happy.”
About: I started pet sitting when I was around 13 with my next-door neighbor’s dog Shiloh. I grew up with her and had played with her before so she was a great starting point for me! Since then, I have watched family/friends pets whenever they were sick or went out of town and have been doing so for years, throughout high school. My freshman year of college, my roommate has a service dog in training, and I’ve learned even more about dog training and dog care in general from him. I’m an upcoming 3rd year student at OSU off for the summer semester, so my schedule is pretty free and flexible for the next few month. I have a pet cat, so I may come already covered in cat hair that pets may be wary of, so I like to take my time getting them acclimated to me. I’m very open to owner’s routines and hope to care for your pets in the way you would care for them yourself!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life growing up and have been trusted to sit for many neighbors and families throughout the years. I’m experienced and comfortable with both big and small dogs, as well as both puppies and senior dogs. Have peace of mind that your fur babies are being loved and taken care of while you’re away! I’m currently out of school for the Summer and have open availability to walk, play, and care for you fur babies whenever necessary! I have a golden retriever of my own that I care for. I am very loving and gentle with pets, and very respectful of other people’s homes. I have a golden retriever of my own that I care for everyday. Her daily routine involves being fed, walked, played with, training, and getting lots of love.
“Paige was great, flexible and helpful. I contacted Paige to help walk our 11 month old Bernese Mountain Dog, while I visited my dad in the hospital. My dad passed away the next day. Paige helped me navigate the app and walks. Paige was super flexible about picking Odin up at our house or my moms. Odin loves and went crazy when he sees Paige. I’m not one to hire a dog walker but I’m a time of uncertain our pup was happy to get outside and get done exercise. I love reviving the pics. We would definitely hire Paige again”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. Growing up, I walked dogs in my neighborhood and helped raise my own pup from just 3 months old all the way to 16, alongside my dad. That journey taught me patience, responsibility, and how to meet a dog’s needs at every life stage. I have studied dog psychology and body language on my own. I’m comfortable administering pills and, with guidance, I can also give shots—always prioritizing each dog’s comfort and well-being. I currently work part-time in the event industry and my hours vary. I will have plenty of time to take care for your fur babies! I have a high commitment to trust and safety inside or outside of my clients home. I am extremely vigilant and aware of my surroundings. Your dog will always feel safe, protected, and cared for.
About: I am an animal lover and have always had pets. I have 30+ years of experience with all breeds and sizes of dogs, My pets are my family and I will treat yours the same way!!

I have a fenced area in my backyard, as well as a fully finished lower level in my home, if my clients would like to keep their pets in their own environment (separate from my 3 dogs).
