Sarah has been walking my girls for over six months now and I have nothing but great things to say. She is so patient with my girls "special needs" as well as mine. Sarah is the best dog walker as far as my family is concerned. Gawd forbid she should ever quit walking I couldn't replace her...I would have to take the two hours of my day to drive back home and take care of my dogs and return to work (yes THAT is how good she is).

Lacey was absolutely fantastic with my boys! She made both the dogs and my elderly mother comfortable as well as put my mind at ease while I was away. Lacey is an incredibly caring person and provided regular updates. I would definitely book Lacey again!

Jessica was great! She took time out of her night to come visit Koda the night before she walked him and see how they did with each other! She was also a great walker and was willing to just hang out with him outside of his kennel and play with his toys! We will definitely be going back to Jessica again!

Brad was amazing with our dog! He was incredibly conscious and respectful about maintaining any routines and training we had already established with our dog and was great with our sometimes unruly boy! I was very impressed with how communicative he was and took very well composed and extremely cute photos to send us! I would absolutely recommend Brad!

Christina is the absolute best when it comes to caring for dogs. She has a deeply caring and empathetic heart and puts their well-being first. She makes sure they always get nice long walks to tucker them out and plenty of snuggles and pets. She's very organized and makes sure she attends to everything you ask. If you haven't made a checklist for her, she's probably made one herself. Would absolutely trust her with any dog!

Look no further for an amazing dog walker! From the moment I met her, it was clear that her focus was not on meeting me but getting to know my dog. Which is exactly what I want!! Can’t wait for future walks with her, and Mochi was smitten the moment she pet him.

About: I have been around and cared for animals for most of my life! Ranging from mostly cats of all ages to older dogs. Previously I’ve done home visits for check-ins and walks, to house-sitting for those on vacation. I am currently a full-time student, so I have a flexible schedule in between classes during the day and after 5 p.m. I can accommodate overnight care and I am available on the weekends! I am a full-time student, so during the week, I am unavailable... Mon. - 12 pm - 4 pm Tues. & Thurs. - 6 am - 6 pm Wed. & Fri.- 6 am - 11 am, 2 pm - 4 pm On weekends I am majorly available! Within your home, I would be more than happy to perform whatever duties are needed to keep your animals safe and happy. From kettling them if needed, to leashed walks. Just let me know what works best for you. I’m used to watching large dogs in un-fenced yards and having to crate one of them when I leave. Also used to either just take them out to go or take them on long 20-30 minute walks so they could get their exercise.

Morgan is the ultimate dog lover and has never met one she doesn’t like. If she comes across a dog while we are out, she always has to stop and ask if she can give the pup some love. I have seen first hand how caring she is with animals and always gives them all her attention. Morgan is extremely prompt, responsible, and organized. She would be the ultimate Rover employee!

The amount of love that Anna has for her dog, and all dogs, is remarkable. I have seen the level of care that she gives her dog and I don’t doubt that she would treat yours the same way. I can’t think of a job that Anna would be more perfect at!

Carol is always attentive to our pets and will send random pics to see that they are being loved. She asks about behaviors and feeding schedules and always lets our dogs out multiple times per day. She is a joy to be around and we know whenever we are gone that the fort is held down with our pets.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12. Friends and family have relied on me for pet sitting whenever they are out of town. I currently work full-time Hybrid. I work from home Mondays and Fridays. During this time I can provide care specific to your pet and their needs. I can provide potty breaks every 0-2 hours at least. I have a giant fully fenced back yard and 2 friendly dogs. One dog prefers more to watch the other dogs play while the other dog loves to be in all the action!

Jessica worked for me when I had a boarding business in Iowa. She was fantastic with the dogs, keep a clean space, and was always on time. She moved and I lost a great asset. I hope you find the greatness I did with your pet(s)!
