About: Reliable, experienced, and genuinely happy to be there. That's what your dog gets with me. I'm a full-time professional pet sitter focused on drop-in visits and neighborhood walks, and I've been caring for animals for twenty years, from friends' and family's pets to 25+ five-star house-sitting stays through TrustedHousesitters, plus a growing record here on Rover. I've worked with puppies through seniors, high-energy dogs, anxious dogs, and dogs on complicated medication schedules. Most of what I do is simple, and I do it the same way every time. Your dog gets out, gets exercise suited to their age and energy, gets fed on schedule, and gets real attention instead of a rushed fifteen minutes. If they're reactive, shy, or slow to warm up to strangers, tell me. I'd rather move slowly on the first visit than push a dog who isn't ready. I answer messages the moment they come in, since my phone and watch are always on me, and I send photo updates through Rover Cards after every single visit. You'll never wonder whether I showed up. Pet care is my full-time work, not something I fit around another job. That means I can cover midday walks while you're at the office, twice-daily visits while you're traveling, and I'm often able to take same-day requests when something comes up. My calendar is updated daily. If you see availability, it's real. I care for pets in their own homes, where they're most comfortable. On the first visit I confirm the essentials in writing: entry and lockup, leash and harness setup, where the leash lives, any door or gate a dog can slip through, food storage and portions, and your vet's information. I lock up behind me every time, keep dogs leashed unless we're in a securely fenced space you've approved, and text you right away if anything seems off, whether it's a limp, a skipped meal, or an unusual mess. I'd rather send a message you didn't need than stay quiet about something that mattered. I'm also Pet First Aid & CPR certified, so if something more serious ever comes up, I have the training to respond rather than just guess what to do.
About: I have had many dogs growing up and they never fail to put a smile on my face. I have dog sat for many friends, family, and coworkers and am looking to provide the same service to you. My current housing will not allow pets, which of course, leaves me needing my fix of K-9 time. I work as a bartender, server and cook at the Olive Garden and mostly my shifts there start around four. So if you have a pug, bulldog, jack russel, german shepherd, lab, poodle, border collie, sheep dog, pit bull, doberman, wolf, direwolf, husky, cat, St. Bernard, Shitzu, husky, golden retriever, or any other animal that needs attention, walking, or just a friend, give me a call! Looking forward to making new furry friends!
About: I have grown up with pets all my life and loved every second of it and wanted to incorporate animals into my life more since moving away. I have cared for many different breeds and sizes of dogs and loved every second of it. I am reliable, punctual and love going to walks or any type of play they want. I ensure your pet’s safety and happiness, as a happy dog is the best sight to see. I am currently an engineering student with classes until 2 pm at the latest. If your pets ever needs an early walk I am open on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays before 11am. Aside from that I am free on weekends whenever needed and I’m always open to last minute walks or anything I could help you with. I will prioritize your pets routine by strictly following any and all care instructions, the more specific the better. When in your home, I ensure everything stays clean and secure. I also love sending photo updates to show you how much fun your pet is having while you’re away! I will answer texts/calls promptly to keep you comfortable and up to date with anything you need.
About: I've had dogs since I was young, and got to raise my pup when I was in high school. I love being around animals and giving love, attention, and care. I love to be outside with dogs, whether is be going on a walk, throwing a ball, or enjoying some fresh air together. I'm currently a student at MSU and work twice a week at a workout studio. But my schedule is pretty open in afternoon and on the weekends. I have plenty of time each day to go on walks and care for your pet. I am attentive on making sure your pet is well cared for while I am with them. I am responsible and reliable when following expectations or specific rules and routines you have for your pet. My goal is to keep your pet safe, happy, and comfortable while you are away.
About: I have grown up having pets of my own and been responsible for at least part of their care for as long as I can remember. Ever since I was 15 or so I have cared for a variety of dogs and cats, in addition to the occasional chicken or rodent, for friends, family, and strangers alike. I genuinely enjoy getting to spend time around any animal, particularly because I don't have any of my own out here. I am a graduate student and work part-time so I have lots of flexible availability to hang out with pets of all kinds! My schedule is constantly shifting which means I do often have gaps in my days to walk or care for animals. I can play with or walk dogs in the comfort of their own home, or take them elsewhere for a hike or park adventure, as I have a decent sized car and am comfortable sharing my space. It's also easy to just take some time out of my day to be around pets who need companionship or some love on a daily basis.

About: I am a trained Veterinary Tech Assistant that worked in animal rescue / spay & neuter clinic.

I have a large un-fenced yard, and a comfortable indoor area for dogs to play or unwind. I can easily accommodate space for a crate if your pup has their own.

About: I’ve always loved animals and taking care of them. I’ve been sitter for neighbors and family since I was 16.

My schedule is pretty flexible, I do work mornings from about 7 am to 12pm other than that I am free. For housesitting, I can come check on animals every 0-4 hours.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your West End. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
