“My dogs LOVE Bradley. He’s been so helpful to my family and I - always showing up on time and even helping us out last minute - I cannot say enough good things about him and would highly recommend him to anyone !”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years, both personally and professionally. As a lifelong dog mom, I know firsthand how much our pets mean to us—they’re family. Beyond daily walks and playtime, I have experience with administering medications, caring for senior pets, and keeping anxious pups calm and comfortable. My background as a registered nurse has made me attentive, reliable, and detail-oriented, which carries over into the way I care for animals. You can trust that your pet will not only be safe with me, but also loved, spoiled, and treated with the same patience and compassion I give my own dogs. I am currently working part time and have availability in my schedule to love and care for your pet. I have pets of my own and would love nothing more than to have clients who are comfortable knowing they will receive care that is above and beyond. I treat all pets like they are my own. I have a fenced in yard where your pet can run and play. I also have spare rooms if they need to be separated for any reason, safety being my main concern.
About: Friends and family members have trusted me to care for their furry loved ones for as long as I can remember. Our furry friends deserve just as much love and care as we do. I work from home three days out of the week, so I am able to care for pets during the day. I am also incredibly available throughout the weekends and each weeknight. I maintain a consistent daily routine for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime to keep pets feeling secure and comfortable. I keep clients updated with photos and updates on their pets' well-being, so they can feel confident that their furry friend is in good hands. I create a pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for pets to roam, play, and relax. I ensure all areas are pet-proofed and free from hazards. Pets receive lots of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I offer enrichment activities like toys and outdoor walks.
“Great communication & service. I was in a terrible predicament &;Heather was great & alleviated a lot of stress. My dog is a great judge of character & he took to Heather immediately. Highly recommend”

“We couldn’t be happier to have Stephanie caring for Brodie. Finding the right person to walk / care for your pet is hard, we lucked out with Stephanie. We will be using Stephanie again, and if your reading this review, you should to. Thank you Stephanie..”

“Elena was wonderful. She was kind and patient and kind with Emmie who is sometimes challenging to walk since she gets so excited. I would definitely use Elena again if I have a need.”


About: I have actively been taking care of dogs since I was a teenager, and in doing so I have worked with a variety of breeds, sizes, and dog of different ages. My manner of minding focuses on building a connection with the dog while uniquely understanding the breed and the specific needs they may need met. I'm very active and thus great with dogs who are looking to get in shape or have high energy levels. I have experience working with dogs who have been abused or neglected and re-socialising them. My home is large enough for multiple dogs of many sizes to be comfortable in as well as a short walk away from multiple parks. Both mornings as well nights are currently available Monday-Sunday.
“I've gone to Sofia twice now to walk my energetic working dog and each time has been a joy! Finding a walker for the middle of the day can be difficult, but Sofia has been there each time I needed her. Jace is always happier on days she comes by!”

About: My first cat was way back in 1992 when a pregnant cat adopted me. She lived in the apartment next door with 4 other cats, a single Mom and 2 little girls. She would visit my apartment daily, also scoping me out, because she had future plans. Soon after I was the proud Human Step-Mom to Mama cat and her 5 kittens. That started my love for the feline species. I've always owned and loved dogs since my childhood. My first dog's name was Rusty, a smart and gorgeous Golden Retriever. I had tanks full of fish, multiple birds (Peanut could talk-he was a Green Cheek Conure), and often cared for my daughters ferret, Franklin, when she went on vacations. No pets are off limit ..... except snakes and spiders. Willing to administer meds. I do pet care full time so I am available just about 24/7. Winter hours may be different for dog walking as it gets dark early. Contact me to discuss as I can be flexible. I have a dog and cat so care outside my home is preferable. I'm willing to care for one animal in my home if necessary.
About: I've been a cat and dog owner for my entire life, and have a genuine love for animals. I confidently offer all kinds of care for cats and small-medium sized dogs including walking, feeding, bathing, giving medication, and more. I love meeting and spending time with animals and I can't wait to meet your little pal! I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of free time and flexibility to give your pet the time and care they deserve. I will come to your home to care for your pets in the environment where they feel safest. Your pet's safety and wellbeing is my number one priority.
About: I love animals. Having 4 pets (2 dogs and 2 cats) they are my world and are spoiled more than most. Many of my friends and family have said if anything ever happened to them they would want me to take care of their pets. They just know I want what’s best for every animal I meet and will provide the same love and care I do for my own. I make sure to dedicate the time that pets need to be happy and cared for. As a pet parent myself, I know how sticking to a routine is so important for both them and us and am here to make your time away as worry free as possible! Communication about your pets’ needs and routines and behaviors is going to help me best take care of them. Having a clear plan about what our shared expectations are will create a great rover experience. Let’s meet and establish a connection before you go away to ensure your pet’s comfortability with me!
About: I don’t have any experience with having a dog because my parents never wanted one but I want a dog so bad and will take care of your dog really well! Dogs are just so sweet and happy and I would love to take care of your dog! I have a bunny who acts basically like a puppy, he runs after treats I throw and loves to be petted, I’m just missing that dog in my life! I’d love to have a furry friend that I can take care of even if I don’t own him, but I’ll treat him as if I do and I will take great care of him when you need it and that will take your worries away! I do instacart and doordash so I have my own schedule whenever I want and can work around that since I choose when to work! I won’t take pets to my home, but in your home I will follow your instructions perfectly because I know that a fur baby is family!
“Kat has been great! Provides quick responses to messages, my dog enjoys his walks with her, and she gives him treats and makes him comfortable when she brings him back home before she leaves. We will be booking her again!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life - from Golden Retrievers to German Shorthaired Pointers to Labs and smaller dogs. I have a love for dogs of all sizes and all ages! Leash up for fun: your dog’s next adventure starts here! I am currently in grad school and have a varying schedule each week but I have lots of free time available for your dog’s needs! I am very active and love to walk my dogs back home. From puppies to older dogs, I can cater to your dogs exercise needs to keep them safe, happy and healthy!
