“I cannot stress enough how above and beyond Kaitlyn goes! Unfortunately she was only able to walk my Zeus for one day before we found out he had a brain tumor. Without knowing this, Kaitlyn arrived early for his walk, spent extra time with him after his walk, and was incredibly communicative. She even interacted with my neighbors who love Zeus and updated me when he got a treat from them. I’m so happy she gave him such a great day before all of this happened. It’s obvious she’s dedicated and truly cares for the animals she sits for!”
“Katie walked our two dogs three times a day for a week and was fantastic. She was always on time and sent photo updates. We would love to have Katie walk our dogs again - would absolutely recommend her!”
“Maryann is awesome! This was my first time using rover and using a dog walker. My dog bear warmed up to her immediately! She is very responsive, on time, and sends great reports and photos back from their walks! Will definitely be using her dog walking/dog sitting services again!”
“We couldn't be more grateful to have had Gilbert as our dog walker while we were on vacation. From the very beginning, was professional, trustworthy, and—most importantly—absolutely wonderful with our dog. Gilbert took the time to understand our dog's routine, quirks, and preferences, and it showed in how happy and relaxed our pup was when we got home. He kept us updated with photos and little notes after each visit, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear that Gilbert genuinely cares about the pets he works with—he treated our dog like his own. If you're looking for someone dependable, kind, and truly great with animals, we wholeheartedly recommend Gilbert. We’ll definitely be booking him again! Thank you so much, The Rebello's”
“Sam is amazing. She is patient and compassionate and in tune to animals and their needs. Professional and friendly and flexible. Zazu’s new favorite pal and future walker!”

About: I've had my dog Maximus for over five years and he is my absolute best friend. Prior to adopting Max, I fostered a reactive dog for a few months so I am familiar with handling dogs that have special behavioral needs. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged friends! I work in education and have a lot of flexibility in the summer while only going into the office one or two days a week so I can be flexible given advanced notice! Pets are family and treated as such! My dog does have limitations on which furniture he can be on so I will respect any boundaries that you set for your home but don't worry, they'll still get plenty of love!

Wayland dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had such a great experience with Kimberly while we were away on vacation for four days this week. She took amazing care of our 10-month-old puppy, and we couldn’t be happier with the attention and love she gave her! Kimberly was punctual, dependable, and super communicative throughout. We really appreciated the updates and adorable photos after each walk—it gave us total peace of mind knowing our pup was in such great hands. She clearly has a natural way with dogs, and our puppy warmed up to her right away. Coming home to a happy, well-exercised pup made all the difference. We highly recommend Kimberly to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog walker. We’ll definitely be booking her again! Thank you! The Rebello's

From the very first meeting, I knew my dog was in good hands. Sylvia showed up prepared, asked thoughtful questions, and even took notes to make sure she understood my dog’s routine and quirks. That level of care really stood out to me. Since then, she’s been amazing—reliable, kind, and clearly someone who loves what she does. My dog absolutely adores her and gets so excited when Sylvia comes by. I feel really lucky to have found her. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dog walker who truly goes above and beyond!
I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my two pups! Annie was incredibly reliable, communicative, and clearly adored my dogs. She followed all instructions perfectly and even sent updates that gave me peace of mind while I was away. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups. Highly recommend!
Erin was an amazing dog walker for our puppy, Razzle! She was always on time, and Razzle was so excited to see her every day. When they returned from their walks, Razzle was noticeably calmer and had just the right amount of energy left exactly what we wanted. Erin also took the time to introduce Razzle to other dogs, which really helped her become more social. I truly appreciate the care and effort she put in, and I will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend!
