About: I’ve been caring for animals since a young age, which has given me a natural sense of responsibility and compassion. From playful puppies to gentle seniors, I provide reliable, loving care tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether it’s keeping to routines, offering companionship, or giving extra patience to older pets, I treat every pup like family Caring for pets has always been part of my life, so it naturally fits into my daily routine. I make time each morning and evening for walks, feeding, and play, and I’m flexible to adjust around each dog’s needs. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or longer stays, I enjoy making pet care a regular, joyful part of my week. I prioritize safety and trust by creating a calm, secure environment for every pet. In my home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space with safe play areas and consistent routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely, respect their space, and ensure pets feel comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I provide attentive supervision, reliable communication, and treat each animal with the same care and respect I give my own
“Johnny is by far the best Rover I have ever had take care of my girl, Lucy. He truly just loves dogs and I am so grateful to him for giving me peace of mind while I have to leave my pup on long work days. Truly 10/10”

“Sophia was amazing with my dogs and went above and beyond to make sure they were well taken care of. If I ever need to hire another dog walker again she’s the first person I’m asking.”

About: My names Nikki, Ive grown up with large, med, and small dogs throughout my life. I really got into everything canine related about 5 years ago when I started dog sitting my friends dogs when they went on vacation. I enjoy studying canine behavior and training to better keep your pets safe and happy. I have successfully trained puppies and dogs under basic and advanced obedience. I am also well versed in crate training if you need any help with that while they stay. I am a true dog enthusiast at heart and will take great care of your beloved fur family. I'm available at all times, dogs are my full time job. I like to have structured schedules for dogs, leashed walks, training time, and plenty of enrichment activities. Dogs are my life, I enjoy every aspect of the canine world. We have a neighborhood park a block away, I like to walk the dogs there and let them enjoy the sun and fresh air. We have a fenced in front and back yard that your dog can safely play. Dogs will spend time indoors and outdoors weather permitting. I have 2 stable friendly medium sized dogs to keep your dog company during their stay. Private time for dogs is available at any time, my house is a structured place for dogs to stay. Dogs can either sleep in crate at night or freely in a safe room according to your preferences. I understand canine behavior and can accommodate for any anxiety your dog may have but I am SURE they will be very happy here.
About: From a young age, we’ve nurtured a deep love for animals, caring for a wide range of pets with tenderness and compassion. We’ve always felt a strong connection to the animals we look after, seeing them as beloved companions. One of our proudest achievements is raising our dog from a puppy, guiding her through training to become a well-behaved, affectionate adult. We’ve also had the privilege of caring for a neighbor’s senior dog, providing comfort and companionship. This experience reflects our genuine passion for animals and our commitment to their happiness and well-being. We work remote with flexible work hours and have a dog of our own. She often goes for walks and of course requires some belly scratches. Our home has a fenced in yard and we personally have a 8 year old cocker spaniel that loves to play but then also likes to chill. She matches the energy around her. We do not have dog crates, if your fur baby is crate trained, we request you provide a crate for their stay.
“Serena was amazing! She is great at communicating (she responded to my changes and details quickly) and rebel loves her. It is so nice to have someone I can trust when I am unavailable to be there for my dog. She was always on time even when I made changes to the location/details. I would absolutely recommend her and will be using her again in the future for Rebel. (: Thank you Serena!”

About: I’m a dogs best friend, I like walking and being outside as much as they do! I grew up in a dog household and then began caring for dogs in clients homes for over 15 years now. I’ve taken care of 5 dogs, 5 cats and 15 rabbits at one time in one household before! I’ve never trained my own pets but I’ve assisted with training by enforcing the clients training commands and wishes. Im in good shape and can hike or go for extra long walks if you have an active animal. I’ll love and treat your dog as if it were my own. I think dogs are the best listeners and I love to mirror their unconditional love. I have several references to put you in contact with per request. I have a flexible schedule right now and would love to fill my open hours with pet visits and dog walking. I’m often available for last minute bookings. I have a fully fenced in backyard available for your dog to run. I do not have my own crates so a crate would need to be provided if necessary.
About: PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING Hi, I’m Cindi. I watch dogs from my home in Seminole Heights where it’s peaceful and easy for dogs to settle in. I’m familiar with senior dogs and those who need extra support, whether that’s meds, help getting around, or sticking to their routine. I’m a great fit for calm, adult dogs who are happy in a quiet home. Puppies, super high-energy dogs (like young Labs), or dogs who get nervous around other dogs usually aren’t the best match for me and Dunston. I’m very accommodating and can arrange pickups, drop-offs, or even take dogs to routine pet appointments for an extra fee. I want your dog to feel at home while you’re away. I freelance, so my schedule is flexible and I can be available when you need me. Whether it’s a midday walk or an evening drop-off, I have plenty of time to give your dog attention and care. I have a fenced in yard and have a crate to use if needed. Both medium and small crates. I have one small dog in my home. Now accepting large dogs (50+ lbs) for boarding and daycare! However, due to my size, I can only take in large dogs that are leash trained, low energy and non-reactive. Your pup should walk well on a leash without excessive pulling or lunging. If you’re unsure whether your dog fits this criteria, feel free to message me to discuss!
About: I have been dog sitting/dog walking since I was in high school. I’ve always grown up around dogs and had a special love for them. I understand it’s a lot of trust to leave your fur babies so I try to make it as easy as possible for you! I’m currently a hairstylist so my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m a homebody as well, so most weekends I’m just snuggled up with my dog beaux watching movies! I treat every animal as if it’s my own. I like to keep clients updated with texts and photos of their animal. When staying at a clients home I make sure all the cleaning and tidying up is done before they arrive.
“Tyler has been absolutely wonderful with my pup, Ellie. He always makes sure she has everything she needs and gives her all the love, pets, and walks when I’m unable to do so during the work day. I would definitely recommend Tyler if you’re looking for a dependable, trustworthy, and dog-loving person to walk your pup. I will continue to book Tyler for as long as he’s willing and able! 😊🐾”

“Great with my pup. Always on time and accommodated to any change. I wish she could keep walking Rafa but I understand she has other commitments. Emma gave me enough advance notice, which shows being responsible and respectful. I will definitely trust her with my pup again ??”

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life, and love being around them! Long walks are never a problem with me and I’ll make sure your furry family member is happy, exercised, and well taken care of. I always have time during the mornings as I don’t leave for work until around 1:45pm. I’m typically done around 7pm-8:30pm so I’ve got time in the evenings to check up on them and get a nice long walk in before bed. I’m all about adapting to your pet’s routine. If there’s a certain structure to their day that they’re used to, I do my best to stick to and and replicate it so they’re comfortable and happy.
About: Animals have always been a part of my life. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, fish, birds, reptiles and farm animals since I was young! I currently own my own business so my schedule is very flexible. Perfect for those last minute occasions that pop up. Available whenever needed to take care of your fur baby! The health, wellbeing and safety of your animal is of my utmost concern. I’ll always have your dog on a leash outside (unless you have a fenced in yard) and monitor their reaction to the environment. If there’s anything “off” about your pet I’ll notify you ASAP.
“An absolute God-send! I live about 3 hours away and was coming to town for an event. Summer met me at Ulta to take my dog while I got my hair and make up done. Because I went to the wrong Ulta, i was late and she was so accommodating (I communicated for her, so do the same!). She even helped me keep my appointment there while she waited for my dog and I. My dog came back tail wagging and so happy she got to play ALL the fetch!!! Couldn’t recommend her more.”

“Tina has been great with our nervous pittie :) she has great communication and always leave a detailed report card after the walks. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

Payton was super responsive and attentive with my request! Rover made a mistake within the request and Payton was positive and had no issues with the correction! I greatly appreciate the care he gave to Sheba and will absolutely use him again for walks when I need someone reliable!! Thank you Payton, you are wonderful!

Woof! Hi, it’s me, Lucy. I am using my hooman’s phonr (don’t ask how) because I simply must leave a review for my Rover sitter, Jenna. First of all, when my hooman left, I thought “oh no…”. But the Jenna walked in, smelled like treats, sunshine, and someone who definitely knows how to scratch behind my ears properly. Jenna walked me and even threw the ball for me at the park! I even got a belly rub when we got back. Now that is service! Can’t wait for Jenna to walk me again! A++++

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Highly Recommend Molly! Molly has been absolutely amazing with Rebel! She is reliable, attentive, and truly treats him like her own.
