“Juliet has been walking my dog for several weeks now and has been consistently on time and communicative. My pup seems to really like her and benefits a lot from the extra attention during my work week.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for many years, especially my German Shepherd growing up, who was mainly my responsibility. She was trained as a security dog and needed a lot of structure, consistency, and control, so I learned how to confidently handle strong, high energy dogs and maintain training over time. Since she was reactive around other people and dogs, I became very attentive on walks and learned how important patience, awareness, and trust are when caring for animals. I genuinely love spending time with pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule, so I have time throughout the week to care for pets. I’m available most afternoons, evenings, and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I enjoy being active, so daily walks and playtime easily fit into my routine. I’m also responsible and organized, which helps me stay consistent with feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any specific instructions your pet may need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Growing up with a trained German Shepherd taught me how important structure, patience, and awareness are when caring for animals, especially dogs with strong personalities or special needs. I always pay close attention during walks, avoid unsafe situations, and follow each owner’s instructions carefully. I work hard to create a calm and trusting environment so pets feel secure and well cared for while you’re away.
“Ava has been professional, dependable, and genuinely caring. She’s always punctual, communicative, and detail oriented, and I truly appreciate the photos and updates that give me peace of mind while I’m away.”
“Logan is so attentive to your pet! He trimmed my dogs nails when they were too long and I really appreciated him going out of his way to make sure my baby was comfortable while I was away.”

“Sarah was amazing! She was interactive with my pups and patient and willing to come out and meet them and get to know their personalities. Will definitely be using her in the future.”

About: I grew up in Florida surrounded by reptiles of all kinds, lots and lots of dogs, a couple cats, and other assorted pawed and clawed friends. I've had dogs in my family since I was a little kid. I have a particular soft spot for small dogs and grumpy elderly dogs who just want to relax. I currently have an anxious dog, a cat, 3 tarantulas (curly hair, desert blonde, red rosehair), a ball/royal python, a grumpy leopard gecko, a flock of quails, and colonies of mealworms and dubia roaches 🐛 Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns! I'm flexible :) I'm a UoA student looking for some supplemental income. I have access to a car, and am otherwise unemployed. Family-quality pet care is part of my daily routine since I have a small zoo of my own babies. I like to be particularly attentive to pets' body language and cues. It's fun for me to figure out what critters do and don't like, so I can pamper them accordingly. I also like to keep an eye out for any issues that may be preventive or easily missed - it can take a village for dogs too!
“Ben is reliable and great with my dog! Ben follows my requests for how Myron needs to learn to walk and Myron always comes home happy. I'm glad we found Ben, he's really helped us out with walking Myron, who has a lot of puppy energy that can be overwhelming. Ben just stays calm and makes sure Myron is following the rules.”


About: I’ve grown up with multiple dogs of all sizes, so I’m very comfortable handling different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve also helped care for friends’ and neighbors’ dogs, giving me experience with different routines and environments. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with dogs, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just keeping them company. I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. With a part-time schedule consisting of short shifts a few days a week, I’m able to offer flexible and attentive pet care. I have ample availability to maintain your dog’s routine and provide consistent supervision, exercise, and companionship. I always prioritize a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I take the time to follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific preferences or needs. I make sure dogs are always supervised, kept in secure environments, and never put in situations where they could feel unsafe or overwhelmed. I also have a small fenced grass section outside of my house! In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and maintain their dog’s normal routine to help them feel as comfortable as possible. I’m attentive to behavior and body language, and I’ll adjust care based on what each dog needs—whether that’s more playtime, exercise, or just a calm presence. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I’ve been watching and caring for pets since I was little and have always had a love for animals. I’ve been taking care of neighbors and friends pets for years without any issues. I also have two fur babies of my own who receive plenty of walks, attention, and affection, and I would love the opportunity to care for your pets as well. I’m currently enrolled at the University of Arizona studying medicine, and I’ve taken several animal related classes simply because of my passion for animals. I’m a very patient, reliable, and attentive person who will treat your pet with the same care and love as my own. I’m currently a student at the University of Arizona studying medicine and im very free in the afternoons and nights to care for pets. And my schedule is free for the weekends to care for animals. I am very attentive and patient when it comes to caring for animals. I try to be observant to my dogs behaviors to see if soemthing is off and I try to keep a decently consistent schedule with feeding and potty breaks. I also make sure they have enough water especially in Arizona heat.

About: I’ve walked dogs for multiple families in my neighborhood as well as taken care of multiple cats while there family was away. I have also house-sat with a special needs dog which required me to spend the night. I am a student at the University of Arizona, but my schedule is pretty light so dog walking/house-sitting will be able to easily fit into my schedule I am currently in a dorm so boarding is not available, but I will happily take dogs on walks or watch the house to take care of any pets.
About: I grew up with two different dogs (80lb and 30lb) and walking them was one of my favorite things and brought me the greatest joy. My love for cats has grown over the years, as many college students have them. There’s nothing sweeter than sitting on the couch and the sweetest cat snuggling up against you. As a graduate student, I have flexibility with my schedule to accommodate the needs of your animal! Whether it’s multiple walks, peculiar hours, or last minute care. I’m extremely clean and respectful. I dog proofed my house every day as a teenager and have a massive attention to detail. No accidents here!

I’m responsible, detail-oriented, and committed to treating your pets like my own and doing things right for your pet and home. My current schedule is flexible and allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day and week.

For cats, I respect their individual rhythms — whether that means affection, play, or quiet companionship — and I keep litter areas clean and well maintained.

“Mikayla is very reliable and professional. Luke has enjoyed his long walks. It usually takes a few walks for him to relax with a new person walking him but he seems to have taken a quick liking to Mikayla!”

“Parker took excellent care of Baloo during drop-in visits. He did a great job of following my list of pretty extensive instructions, and spent extra time keeping my anxious boy company. I received daily photos of a happy dog! I will not hesitate to book with Parker and Alysa again.”

“Stephanie was very responsive and did a great job of updating me during and after my dog’s walks. She was super kind and friendly and does so well with dogs, Quill loved her! I would definitely book with her again.”

“Jenn was great with our yellow lab Zane, she walked him every day for a week and sent great photos. She’s extremely prompt in communication and we definitely hope to utilize her services regularly!”

West University dog parents share their Rover experiences
Second time either Victoria was even better! Great frame-worth photos, she went at Rosie’s pace and let Rosie show her around the neighborhood, and on top of that she’s reliable, a good communicator, and a genuine person. I’m speeding through this review so I can get to the screen where I book her again

Nicole is simply amazing. This was my first time ever using Rover and we got so lucky finding Nicole. My dog is very nervous around new people, and she did an amazing job respecting her boundaries and was so patient with her. Will definitely book with her again and recommend her to everyone!

Juliette is great! She was able to fit lupine in for a walk last minute which is great because I have a busy/unpredictable schedule at times. She was able to put her back in my home and lock the doors and gates. I will be using Juliette’s walking services often!!

Stephanie has been such a blessing to our home. She has a real sense for dogs, how to relate to them and how to work with them. My little guy has a fearful bent and his response to fight or flight is to fight. This did not intimidate Stephanie as it does many sitters and she was able to work with him right from the meet and greet. They quickly bonded and she’s just been amazing! She’s definitely a keeper!

Makenna was great with my dog Bodhi! He needed some extra walks during the day while I was away on a last-minute work trip, and she made sure that he was well exercised and cared for by the time my partner got home. So grateful for her attentiveness and flexibility!

Oliver is great! His availability on Tuesdays and Thursdays works perfectly with my schedule at work. Very reliable and easy going, a critical thinker and able to anticipate a pet's needs. Both my late senior (RIP) and young foster took to him easily. Will book again!

Parker took excellent care of Baloo during drop-in visits. He did a great job of following my list of pretty extensive instructions, and spent extra time keeping my anxious boy company. I received daily photos of a happy dog! I will not hesitate to book with Parker and Alysa again.
