“I am so happy to be able to rely on the fact that James is extremely punctual. He is here every morning at the designated time. He has been patient with my small dog, who has a preference for women and has had to grow accustomed to a male dog walker. James has given him space and encouragement.”
“Took our pups on a great walk! My older pup can struggle in heat, and she watched for his queues and brought him home when he asked and kept cruising with our younger pup! (We had chatted about this before hand, so she knew that we wanted her to take him home early if needed). Great communication and right on time. Would definitely recommend!”
“We absolutely love Erica! She’s been wonderful with our dog — reliable, caring, and always communicates well. Our pup is always happy to see her and comes back from walks relaxed and content. Highly recommend”
“John was wonderful with both our dogs! He was on time, got to know them first, and won them over very quickly. Even our older dog who is very skittish took to John immediately for a walk this week. Would highly recommend!”
“Tamara is so patient with our anxious dog! Our dog warmed up so quickly to Tamara and its a relief knowing our pup will be looking forward to walks while we are away at work. Tamara sends great updates and leaves notes to let us know how our dog is doing while we are at the office. She even came for a meet and greet to make sure our dog felt safe with her before her first walk.”
About: I have been working on Wag! For the last 3 years, but decided to try out Rover since so many people love it!! I have also had many dogs and cats growing up and am good at detecting when a dog is scared or distressed. Not only that, but I also have experience with elderly dogs and puppies and can care for both! I have a total of 348 5-star reviews on Wag! as well as hundreds of achievement badges on my profile for walks I’ve done! I can’t wait to help care for more pets on Rover, it really is what I love!! :) I have an online jewelry business that I run from home, I usually work on my orders at night, so during the day, I am free to help out people who’s pets need some extra care while they’re at work! It brings me so much joy to know that I can be of help for your dog/cat while you’re away! When I do sittings, I usually prefer to sit with the dog/cat throughout the day and go home late in the evening since I work on my jewelry orders from my house at night. But I also understand that some pets need extra love and care even at night so if you give advanced notice, I will do my best to make sure I can be with your pet overnight as well!
“Thank you Rocio for allowing our nervous dog to show you his playful side. You gained his trust right away. We loved all the updates and communication throughout your services. You gave us complete reassurance that our pet babies were in great hands. You showed great dedication and went above and beyond by doing other tasks around the house to care for our kiddos. We would be so pleased to continue to work with you soon.”
“Angelina is fantastic with Griffey! She is super communicative, punctual, and makes me feel at ease knowing he is in good hands. Love the updates and photos too; it’s clear she really cares. Highly recommend!!”
“Very grateful for Jessica! She has been doing daily walks with my senior dog and giving him lunch while I’m at work. She takes great care of him and it’s so nice to know he’s is in good hands!”
“Dolla was excited to see Angela the moment she saw her and I knew it would be a good fit for us. Angela is nice and has a pleasant demeanor and I will work with her again”
“Kelsey was great and very responsive! I look forward to using her over and over again. She always keeps me updated and takes lots of pics. I enjoy reading Bear’s report card after her visit and I trust that he is in great hands when I am away. Would recommend 100%.”
“She is absolutely amazing! She follows instructions perfectly, communicates quickly and clearly, and always prioritizes safety. I really appreciate how she reinforces our dog’s training and handles dogs with so much care and confidence. We trust her completely and feel very lucky to have found her. Highly recommend!”

I can’t recommend Jocelyn enough as a dog walker! She takes such great care of my dog and is always so patient and attentive. I’ve truly noticed a positive difference, my dog is happier, more relaxed, does not pull as much and looks forward to their walks together. It gives me peace of mind knowing my pup is in such caring hands. Jocelyn is reliable, kind, and clearly loves what she does. I’m so grateful to have found her!
