“Ally has walked both our medium-large dogs a couple times a week. She is very punctual and the dogs seem happy and tired after their walks with her, bonus for us! Very glad we found Ally to help us with our pets on days we are regularly in the office!”

“Ariana was a true professional and I was beyond happy with her services. She was the first person I tried to care for my Daisy girl and I couldn’t have found someone better. Daisy loved her. She came back exhausted from their adventure which was just what I was hoping for. She missed her when she left. It was a perfect match. Very dog knowledgeable and caring by nature, I feel very lucky!!! Thank You Ariana ❤️ Laura and Daisy 🌸”

“Andy has been walking my dog fairly regularly for over 6 months now and I can’t recommend him enough. He is always timely in his response and communicates very clearly. I would recommend him to anyone who’s looking for a loving and responsible dog walker.”

About: I work at The Bark Yard, a fear and force free doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I care for dogs daily in a positive, stress-free environment. I’ve grown up with small to extremely large dogs—mainly Boston terriers and Great Pyrenees—and have hands-on experience with feeding, medication routines, enrichment, and reading canine body language. I also personally own and care for a cat, so I’m comfortable providing attentive, gentle care for both dogs and cats. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily and weekly routine. I work hands-on at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, so caring for animals, following schedules, and reading behavior is second nature to me. At home, I care for my own cat with consistent feeding, litter maintenance, playtime, and observation. Because pet care is built into my lifestyle—not something I squeeze in—I’m reliable, attentive, and able to adjust my routine to meet each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, trust, and maintaining their normal routine. I carefully follow all written and verbal instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and household rules. I respect the pet’s space, read body language, and move at their comfort level—especially for shy or anxious pets. I keep doors, gates, and leashes secure, maintain a clean environment, and leave the home as I found it. My goal is for pets to feel calm, safe, and cared for in their familiar environment.
“Matt was great! He was communicative from the meet and greet through a full week of 2x day walks, he always provided an update on how things were going. He was caring and patient with my dog and punctual for all walks! Thank you Matt!”

“Jillian did a great job with Minnie, especially given that it was snowing/raining and Minnie would much rather stay on the couch than go for a walk. Thanks so much for taking good care of our little rascal.”

About: Lifelong dog lover with plenty of availability for long morning walks. I am a current medical student with a flexible schedule, available for last‑minute walks or overnight stays for the right family. I look forward to getting to know you! I’m a first‑year medical student currently on summer vacation, which gives me plenty of free time throughout the week. I’m available for both morning and afternoon walks, depending on what your dog needs. My days are flexible, so I can easily fit regular weekly walks or occasional check‑ins into my routine. I care for pets in their own home so they can stick to their normal routine. I handle feeding, walks, and any instructions you leave, and make sure your dog gets steady attention throughout the day. My focus is keeping things calm, consistent, and comfortable for your pup.
About: I have been caring for dogs and cats my entire life and have a deep passion for both. I have years of hands-on experience and a genuine love for animals, and am dedicated to providing the best care possible. I also volunteer at a local animal shelter, which enhances my skills and keeps me up-to-date with the latest in pet care. Whether it’s a walk in the park or a cozy sit at home, your pets will receive the attention and affection they deserve. I am a student so I have plenty of availability and can be flexible if need be! I work part time so work would not be a conflict. I have a large yard and love taking pups on adventures on new trails or to lakes if they are swimmers! I have 2 cats and they are super friendly and have so many toys and new activities every day!
About: Hi there! My name is Rolanda and I’m a 24 yo pedi nurse. I’m an experienced dog sitter who understands that every dog has their own personality and needs. Im also experienced in reactive and senior dogs. My own dog is reactive and through training we’ve been able to work on that successfully. That experience has taught me how to read dog body language, create safe and calm environments, and follow routines that keep them comfortable. I know some dogs need a little more extra patience and space, and I’m confident handling leash walks, structured play, and quiet downtime to fit their unique needs. I’ll treat your pet like my own with lots of love, respect, and attention to detail every time! I work 3 nights a week, which means I’m free most afternoons, evenings and some mornings for walks and drop in visits. My calendar is always updated to reflect my availability! I currently live in an apartment and can host dogs in my own home. I always make sure make sure every pet feels safe and comfortable in their home by following their daily routines!

About: For about 10 years I have taken care of many dogs. I have experience house sitting and have experience taking care of dogs with particular needs such as allergies and giving medications. I go on walks everyday and I am looking for a companion to join me! I have always had dogs around me and living in a home without a pup right now is sad! I am looking for the opportunity to hangout with some pups because I can’t get my own right now! I’m currently working part time and have a flexible work schedule. I have time throughout the week for walks or check ins! My part time schedule also provides the perfect opportunity to house sit as I am not away for extended periods of time! I know how hard it can be to leave your dog in someone else’s care, so I make sure your pup feels safe and loved while they are with me! I’m also happy to send frequent updates and pictures of your pup and our adventures together!
About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have had three dogs and two cats over the years. I’m currently raising a golden retriever puppy with my family and absolutely love spending time with dogs. Friends have always trusted me to watch their pets while they’re out of town because they know I treat every animal like family. I’m the kind of person who stops people on the street just to ask if I can pet their dog. Caring for animals genuinely makes me happy, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m currently between jobs, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability to give your pets the attention, care, walks, and love they deserve. I care for every pet like my own, always putting their safety, comfort, and happiness first. I stay alert on walks, careful around other dogs, people, traffic, and our surroundings to make sure pets feel safe and secure at all times. I also have a fenced yard for safe play and experience caring for and crate training puppies since I currently have 2 dogs.

“I totally lucked out finding Griffin through Rover. He was friendly, communicative, and quickly got to know my dog, Poppy's, personality and needs. I felt very secure having him take her out for walks while I was working. He was safety minded; thinking about the right place to walk with her, using a harness, and being mindful of ticks. I think Poppy loved her time with him and I wouldn't hesitate to use him again.”

About: My super strength as a pet caregiver, is my interest in getting to know an animal's personality and working mindfully and respectfully with their nature. I prioritize safety, trust and attention. I've taught young children and raised kittens, puppies and chickens over the last twenty years. As a lover of Great Pyrenees (having raised three) and cats, I have great respect for the subtle and obvious efforts our animals use to communicate with us. I'm experienced with all ages. Senior pets are very dear to me. I've had the honor to provide comforting care for my own animals and provide tender touch, medications, dietary support, and a calm presence through their final months. I also love training and nurturing puppies. I am available to provide individualized day and overnight care for your pet(s) and plants. Contact me to discuss your short-term or longterm needs. I am especially interested in helping people feel at ease during holidays and vacations by providing qualified, experienced multi-day pet care. Mindfulness, kindness, and experience guide my services. I'm happy to travel to care for pets in the comfort of their home or mine! My place was designed for Great Pyrenees. I have a large, protective deck and fenced yard for supervised off-leash, outdoor time.
About: We have both had dogs and cats our whole lives, and are constantly taking care of fosters, and our friend's and family's pets. We have extensive experience fostering pets through the animal refuge league and have made our home perfect for our dog and cats, so we’d love to have your pets stay too! We both work from home and are constantly out on dog walks, out in the yard with our dog and spend most nights hanging on the couch with all the pets! We treat any guest pets as if they are our own. Our dog and cats are used to fosters and other pets coming into and out of the home and are great hosts. We are excited to meet and care for your pets!
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, temperaments, and medical requirements. Due to having worked in a veterinary clinic, I am capable of handling pets with specific health requirements and am very comfortable with animals from diverse backgrounds. This position has also helped me to understand pet behavior, especially with anxious or shy pets. My employment at a boarding facility and dog daycare has helped prepare me for playtime and enrichment while dogs are away from their owners. This position also made me comfortable handling and caring for multiple dogs at once. I have dog and cat-sat for many friends and coworkers over the years and am comfortable providing care for pets in someone else's home. I am taking the summer off before starting veterinary school in August at Kansas State University! I’m excited to spend that time caring for animals. I have experience working in both a small animal veterinary clinic and a dog daycare/boarding facility, where I cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. In both of these roles, I’ve gained experience with feeding, administering medications, observing behavior, handling pets, and making sure animals feel safe and comfortable while away from home. I’m reliable, attentive, and truly love getting to know each pet’s personality. As a future veterinarian, animal health and well-being are extremely important to me! Pet safety and comfort is very important to me. I have learned to understand animal behavior and try to make each pet feel as safe as possible. I am comfortable recognizing signs of stress and anxiety and feel confident de-escalating situations should they arise. I try to make pets feel comfortable with a stranger around by giving them plenty of time to warm up and space if they need it.
