She helped me out by walking our dogs while we were at a wedding and sent the cutest pictures of them! She is very caring and thoughtful with them. I would definitely love to use her again!

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over a decade, including raising a German shepherd and co-parenting an Italian greyhound. As a current medical student on my research year, I don’t have the flexibility to own a pet full-time—but my love for animals hasn’t changed. I’m the “cool uncle” to many of my friends’ pets and truly enjoy giving them love, attention, and care as if they were my own. I’d be honored to bring that same energy and compassion to your pet’s day. My schedule is flexible if planned ahead of time during week, and I decide my time between research lab annd studying. On the weekends, I’m always free and more flexible. I treat every pet’s space like a sacred one, clean, calm, and full of positive energy. Whether in your home or mine, safety is my top priority. I follow all feeding and walking routines closely, keep environments hazard-free, and always aim to earn your pet’s trust with patience and kindness. You can count on me to keep your pet happy, loved, and secure while you’re away.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember! Dogs, cats, guinea pigs, turtles, you name it, I’ve had at least one! I’ve worked as a professional dog walker when I lived in Boston, dog walked and house sat while living in Austin, and currently care for pets of neighbors, friends and family. I’m an uber driver with open availability to come swing by whenever needed! I am up early in the morning, and go to bed late at night! I’m centrally located, so I can be to your pet in minutes! I take caring for pets very seriously. I love to provide a loving and caring demeanor while being quiet and patient. Animals need to trust their caregiver, and I find it very important for the pet to know they can rely on me to care for them. Having a dog that requires a lot of care and extra watching, I like to treat all pets as if they are my own

About: I've had dogs my entire life. My last pup, Pooka, died a few years ago after living around the world with me for 16 happy years. So I'm an empty nester looking to love on your pets until I'm ready to get one of my own again. I've cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities and even some special needs. I work from home in a sizable house on a flat topped mountain. I already take 1-2 walks during my workday to stretch my legs. Other than that, I'm a huge homebody. I’m currently living up on a mesa in the middle of nowhere. Plenty of room to run and chill. The space is not fenced so I can keep pups on leash, if needed.

About: I've loved dogs my entire life and have over 2 years of hands-on experience working at Camp Bow Wow, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. My responsibilities included supervising playgroups, feeding, administering basic care, monitoring behavior, and ensuring every dog stayed safe and happy. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their pets for years, and I treat every dog like they're my own. Whether your pup needs a walk, playtime, overnight care, or just some extra attention while you're away, I'll provide dependable care and plenty of updates for your peace of mind. I work remotely from home, which gives me a flexible schedule for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the day. I'm available before work, during lunch breaks, after work, and often have flexibility for midday visits as well. Because I work from a laptop, I can provide consistent care and attention while helping your pets maintain their normal routine. Whether your dog needs a walk, potty break, feeding, playtime, or companionship while you're away, I'm happy to help. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. With over 2 years of professional experience caring for dogs at Camp Bow Wow, I'm comfortable handling dogs of different sizes, breeds, energy levels, and personalities. When caring for pets in your home, I follow all instructions closely, maintain your pet's normal routine, ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and provide regular updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well. I believe in building trust through clear communication, reliability, and treating every pet like they're my own.

I can’t recommend Cody enough. She is a pet charmer. My 2 dogs and cat warmed to her quickly, she is an excellent communicator, and has a gentle presence. My one dog was nervous and hid before the first walk. Cody spent 30 min gently coaxing her out. After the first walk, all 3 of my animals were comfortable and happy. She sat with them after every walk for extra minutes and shared great pics with me. I will always check her availability first in the future

About: Hi! My name is Eden, and I’m a passionate animal lover currently enrolled in a Veterinary Technician program. I have hands-on experience caring for 8 animals of my own, including managing daily feeding, exercise, medication, grooming, and providing lots of love and attention.

I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. Whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, playtime, cuddles, or extra patience, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I strive to provide dependable, compassionate care every time. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I have 8 animals and I take care of them everyday. I look forward to taking care of your fur babies!!! Eden vet tech student I have a fenced yard and all of my animals love dogs.

Mallory was great and most importantly, my dog thought so too! We were visiting New Orleans from out of town and a bit leary about leaving our boxer in a strange place with strange people. Mallory responded quickly to my somewhat last minute request for a 3 day dog walking booking during jazz fest. She even came for a pre-visit meet and greet. She sent us photos and updates of her visits, and offered flexibility on her times. This is my first time using Rover and Mallory made it an amazing experience. I would absolutely call her again and again and again! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 5/5 PAW Rating!
