“Susan is an outstanding dog sitter, dog walker, and human being. She is always on time, is conscientious, and totally trustworthy. My pup loves her and so do I!”


“Maryann was fantastic! We needed at add another day last minute, and she was able to accommodate our needs. We will definitely try and schedule her again”


“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!”


“Rebecca was kind & communicative! She made sure she knew where everything was ahead of time and took our pup for a great walk and sent lots of updates and pictures. Would happily book her again.”

About: I’ve been an animal owner and lover my whole life. I enjoy walking in parks and spending time outside playing tug o war. Inside snuggles are fun too! I currently work full time overnight. I am available for overnight visits Thursday-Saturdays. I am available for day sitting/check ins and walks 7 days a week between 8a-10pm. I have a friendly, loving cat who loves all the space and windows in my home. No yard, but plenty of parks only .5-1 mile away from home.

About: I've been in love with animals since childhood: dogs, cats, birds, fish. I have fun interacting with them and I am here to give your pet a safe experience while having a good time! I like to intersperse dog walks when I have breaks in my day, but my preference are mornings and later in the evening when the weather is cooler. I cannot board on my rental, but I am happy to come to your home and take your dog on a walk or just hang out for a little bit.

“Little miss Kimba was a happy little pup after her walk with Tatiana. Tatiana was communicative, timely, and even showed up early for the first meeting! Highly recommend.”


About: I am an energetic and active individual who is always excited to take a furry friend on a walk; I am compassionate and patient with pets that need special accommodations and/or care; and I care deeply about making sure every animal receives the love and attention it deserves :) I am a graduate student currently on my summer break, so I will have no issue fitting hang-outs with cute furballs into my schedule! I'm happy to come by multiple times in a day, or stay at the house all day with animals requiring more attention. I can check in on pets any day of the week, and pretty much any time of the day. I always make sure to read instructions three times through, and I'm not afraid to ask owners clarifying questions, especially if an animal requires a specialized type of care I haven't administered before. I can play with energetic animals, and I'm also happy to just do my own thing in the space while keeping an eye on pets that maybe need a supervisor present but don't need/want constant interaction.

About: Hi! Thanks for stopping by. My name is Jess and I am an experienced dog and cat sitter! I have 2 cats and 1 dog of my own, and grew up with animals. I am attentive and caring, love to go on walks and play with your pet! Currently I have open availability for walks and drop ins. I am not taking any clients for boarding at this time sorry for any inconvenience! When doing drop ins amd/or walks I will go above and beyond to meet your pet's needs plus give all the cuddles and affection they deserve.


“Bri was fantastic and our dog had a great time on their two outings today. We are so thankful for all of the great photos of their time together and loved coming home to a happy dog!”


“Hannah has been a great walker! She's friendly, punctual, professional, and she sets a great pace, covering a lot of ground on a 1 hr walk. My dog loves her and always seems super pleased before and after walks.”


About: I have taken care of both cats and dogs of all sizes. I always put my greatest care into taking care of my neighbors’ and family friends’ pets, from making sure they get their daily walks to playing with them so they aren’t lonely. I have a dog and two cats myself, and I love them both dearly:) I am a college student with classes in the early afternoon, so I can check on your pet in the morning, late afternoon, and nighttime! I make sure to follow the instructions of my clients to ensure their pets are where they are used to/supposed to be (eg. leashing dogs on walks, keeping a close watch if the pet is let outside)

Wayland dog parents share their Rover experiences
Maintained great communication during my time away, and did a great job with my dog! Would highly recommend (:

Natasha was great with my pup! He loved his walks and the attention she gave him. She was very professional and super quick to respond to any messages for booking. She even brought in a package for me that came during his walk which was very kind of her.

Khadaja is the best! I can always tell Petey has been well cared for when I come home and it’s so nice to be able to chill for a little bit after work and not run right back out because I know she already had a good walk 🐶

Lizzie is great! Always provides updates on how Bear is doing and takes great pictures which are a highlight of my day. Can’t recommend her enough

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!

Our shy little Ziggy warmed right up to Rin for our first walk! We appreciated the punctuality, communication, and enthusiasm- it's clear they love spending time with pups!

Alyssa communicated very well. She was accommodating to my tome change request and followed instructions well!

Really appreciated Brent filling in last minute for our usual sitter! Super professional and did a great job looking after Rusty!!

Marco was wonderful with our two high energy doggies! He was able to accommodate our last minute request and made sure our pups had a great time. Would book him again!

Sierra has been walking our dog Lux and she's great! She has been super responsive and very flexible to our accommodate our needs. We love that she takes Lux on walks with other dogs to give her some socialization. Totally recommend!

Antoinette watched our 5 month old puppy while we went out to a family dinner. She was amazing with our little Mabel, kept in touch and sent pictures. Thank you so much!

Ella is so wonderful with our almost 5 month old puppy and watched her for 5 hours for us. Mabel is at ease with Ella, and we are very thankful for her help!

I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and a shining, spotless apartment! I’m absolutely thrilled with Cate’s pet sitting skills and attention to detail. Highly recommended!

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!
