“Pat’s been doing a wonderful job with Rudy. I know he loves his time with her and she is dedicated to making ours dogs happy. She takes the time to interact with them and learn what they like. Couldn’t be more grateful. She’s also had great advice for me along the way when I would ask for help. Don’t hesitate to reach out to her!”
“Emma loves her walks with Jennifer.”
About: I grew up with two amazing dogs—one is now 17 and the other is a playful 4-year-old—so I’ve cared for pups at every stage of life. From energetic walks to gentle senior care, I understand what dogs need to feel happy, safe, and loved. Whether it’s belly rubs, fetch, or sticking to their routine, I’m here to make sure your dog feels right at home. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I'm available Monday through Friday. I am happy to spend quality time with your pet, whether that means walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I make sure any cat or dog that I am caring for is getting fed their daily amount, they have gone on walks or used the bathroom (cleaning the litter daily if it’s cats), they get plenty of water, and make sure they get plenty of stimulation through play time.
“Faith is pretty amazing and one walk recently was no exception. She took time to take one of our dogs to the vet after he pooped blood when we were stuck at work. She is always very caring and present for our pets.”
“Adriana, was a great communicator! She walked our dog Cash twice in one day! It was a complicated situation as well. We were staying at a camp ground and she was very accommodating and took Cash and 2 really long walks!”
“Could Paula get any better? It’s impossible. In two visits she has our crazy puppy minding on leash and exhausted for the remainder of the day. Paula even helped source some strategic training in our immediate area. We are feeling blessed to know Paula and appreciate her patience and loving persistence with sweet, crazy Sophie!”
About: Hey Pet Parents! My name is Shea and I’m super glad you’re considering me to watch your fur babies while you’re away! I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember and I’ve been pet sitting for quite some time now. I myself have a 5 year old Australian Cattle Dog, a Green Cheek Conure, and a handful of chickens too! I’ve also had experience working in a pet grooming salon, where I gained extensive knowledge on signs of stress in animals as well as first-aid. I understand all pets have different needs and I’m able to take the time to get to know them and adapt to help them feel safe while you’re away! Nobody is more prepared than I am to care for your little buddies! My schedule is very flexible. I pet sit full-time and I keep my Rover schedule up to date daily! That being said, I do only accept bookings after doing a meet and greet to ensure all parties (especially your pets!) feel as comfortable as possible during the booking. I will follow any instructions left for me about your pet closely! Please let me know of any specific parts of their routine you would like me to continue during our booking. I’m here to make your pet (and you!) feel as stress-free as possible. I also understand your privacy is important, I’ll do everything in my power to make you feel safe to welcome me in your home while you’re away :) *** Dog walks only: please note that during the summer, if it is too hot outside, walks will be shortened. I will still stay the full amount of time booked, it just will not be outside the whole time. I’ll replace the remaining walk time with play time and pets! I will still take the pups outside to use the bathroom, but for their safety I will limit time outside in extreme weather. Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions regarding this!
“Heather is the absolute best dog walker we have ever had. She goes above and beyond on each visit, always staying longer than she needs to to make sure our dog is happy and taken care of. We trust her completely. She will even bring her own toys to help exercise our very active beagle. She sends adorable pictures and notes with each visit. Recently, she went back to our house after her scheduled visit to open windows because she was concerned the fumes from some floor staining would affect our animals! She is very attentive and responds quickly to any questions or concerns we have. Her schedule is very flexible and accommodates whatever we need. You can tell she truly cares for all animals. We love Heather and recommend her without any reservation!!”
“Marlena is the best! My pittie and rottie love when she comes to pick them up for a walk. She treats them like family and brings them on great adventures. She is communicative, responsible and kind. Would trust her any day with my fur babies.”
“Samantha goes above and beyond with our sweet Lily. She is extremely gifted with animals and has academic expertise with various animal groups. She is diligent and professional. We are so lucky to have her support.”
About: My very first job was working with dogs. I’ve always had a passion for the fur babies! I have a 4 year old pit bull who absolutely loves making new pup friends and a 11 year old daughter who adores all animals! I work Monday-Friday between 9am-5pm but make sure your fur baby is tended to before and after work just as I do my own :) I have a fenced in yard which helps make sure they have lots of space for running around. During the daytime hours while I’m away, the dogs are kept safe in separated areas of the house but are always left with a comfy bed, food and toys. The dogs have free roam of the house during the day and are either kenneled (if crate trained) or separated when not being watched directly. Dogs are let out in the fenced in yard multiple times a day and are given tons of attention :)
About: I have an indoor orange cat which I adore. I have had several large dogs-german shepherds are my favorite! I can house sit and take care of your cats and dogs when you're away. I have volunteered at animal shelters. One was a cat shelter where I fed and cleaned cages and gave the kitties some play time, the other was walking pitbull dogs at the shelter. If you need someone to take care of your best friend , call me! Thanks! I am available now anytime to house sit or drop in for 30 minute visits or 60 minute visits before work, lunchtime or evenings. Whatever you need. Thank you. I will treat your pets like my own-they're family. I will treat them with respect and care. I'll give them lots of attention. Thank you
“Erin was great with my dog Willow. At the meet and greet she was professional and personable. Willow has a little trouble with meeting strangers for the first time and Erin handled it perfectly. Willow warmed up to her on the first walk and adapted to Willow’s initial shyness by feeding her from under our side table by the couch where she likes to hide. She took excellent photos and kept me informed. I highly recommend Erin.”
“Liz was very responsive and the dogs seemed to love her! It was a last minute request too, with less than 48 hour notice and she was great about it.”

About: I'm a stay-at-home parent with a flexible schedule and a love for dogs (and cats and horses and so on😸). I offer dependable dog walks and daily check-ins to help keep your pup happy and cared for while you're away. I'm professional, experienced, and always focused on providing safe, attentive care. Since my kids sometimes join me on walks, I ask that your dog is comfortable around children and strollers. Whether it's a daily stroll or a quick drop-in, you can count on me for reliable, thoughtful pet care. I can administer medication, drive to and from the park, and give a good brushing if needed. I am available most days, and can work around anyone's schedule. Even on little league days, you can count on a drop in or a quick stroll! I offer rides too and from the park or my own fenced in yard, I will ALWAYS keep your dog on a lead and return them to their crate if need be.
“Elizabeth we so great to our dog waffles. It was one of the first times leaving him in over a year and she did a wonderful job making us comfortable and making sure our dog waffles had a great time.”
About: I've been taking care of cats of all ages and kinds since I was 12. My cat is 15 and has traveled the country with me I currently work part time, mostly on weekends. This leaves me plenty of time for check ins and play time. My timing is usually very flexible. I treat every home with respect — just like I hope others would treat mine. I follow any instructions closely, including feeding, routines, cleaning, and special care needs like medications. I make sure pets stay safe, calm, and comfortable while you’re away, and I always clean up after myself (and them!) I’ll always update you with a message and photos so you know your pets are happy and well cared for. Their safety and your peace of mind matter to me.
About: Hi! I'm new to the app, but I guarantee you won't be disappointed if you give me a chance! I have over a year's worth of using the Wag! app consistently, with a 4.9 rating and over 150 services completed and several repeat clients. I also have experience working at a doggy daycare+kennel for nearly a year (Kessler Kennel Farms). I currently work with Happy Dogs at Home. My first priority is making sure the pets I care for are in the right hands; each experience tailored to their needs and being the best I can be for them. I am familiar with working in extreme weather conditions, administering oral medication, cleaning bodily fluids/ waste, heavy lifting/walking long distances, being attentive to detail/behaviors, working under stress, and caring for variety of dogs. I am also willing to transport pets in my car if that is a service you are interested in, as that is what I do for my job with Happy Dogs at Home! I 100% prioritize the safety and happiness our pets deserve, and you can be assured I will be attentive and follow strictly to instructions always. I will be available after 2pm on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays as I have my other jobs, but depending on how many hours I end up working there this can be flexible. Tuesdays and Thursdays I am available anytime. I have a fenced yard my dog loves to play in. His daily schedule consists of being let out in the morning, eating breakfast, being let out again. I will fill his water as needed and let him out for a bathroom break or to play around every few hours until dinner, and he is let out one more time before bed.
“Mary is spectacular and so friendly!! She took my very energetic husky for an hour walk and kept me updated the whole time - she even sent pictures!! We will definitely be using Mary again - Koda loves her!!”

Brooke G.
“Brooke is a contentious and caring dog owner. She exhibits a sense of responsibility and she has a true love for dogs. What truly sets Brooke apart is her genuine connection with dogs. It's as if she has a sixth sense when it comes to understanding their needs and emotions. Whether it's a comforting cuddle, a playful game of fetch, or a soothing voice to calm nerves, Brooke always knows just what to do to make a dog feel safe and loved. Brooke has shown unwavering kindness, patience, and empathy towards dogs of all shapes, sizes, and backgrounds. I have no doubt that any dog fortunate enough to cross paths with Brooke is in the best of hands.”
