About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12 and I really love being around animals. Friends, neighbors, and family trust me to feed, walk, play with, and watch their pets when they’re away. I’m patient, reliable, and make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable. Whether your dog likes long walks, playing, or just relaxing, I’ll make sure they’re happy and cared for. I treat every pet like my own and always do my best to make owners feel comfortable leaving their pets with me. I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time to care for your pets since I am home from college. I’m available throughout most weekdays and weekends, which gives me lots of time to give your pets attention, playtime, walks, and care. I enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for when they’re with me. I follow instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, or routines your pet is used to. I’m patient with animals and pay attention to their behavior and needs to make sure they’re happy and comfortable. In a client’s home, I am respectful of the space and make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and care while the owners are away.
“It was great to have someone walk them that wasn't afraid of them and get them some good exercise in with the nice weather they was so happy coming back in and should sleep great tonight and will definitely book again.”

About: We share our home with a sweet 3-year-old Old English Sheepdog, who is friendly, playful, and great with other dogs. She enjoys the company of all the pups that become family while they’re here. We look forward to welcoming yours, too. 🐾 Pet care fits easily into my routine since I primarily work from home, with occasional site visits . We take daily walks and get plenty pets and playtime! While I don’t have a fenced yard, dogs are always supervised and taken out on leashed walks. I recommend bringing your dog’s toys, bed and/or crate to help them feel secure, comfortable, and at home in a familiar environment.
“Jillian was fantastic with my dog who doesn't always warm to strangers. She's be so happy to see her every day. Jillian was very punctual and communicative. She sent detailed updates every day. I highly recommend her!”

“Claire was absolutely amazing! She took care of our two dogs for two weeks and treated them like her own. Super reliable, communicative, and clearly an animal lover. We came home to happy, well-exercised pups and couldn’t be more grateful for the peace of mind she gave us while we were away. Highly recommend Claire to anyone looking for a responsible and caring dog walker!”

About: Hello pet parents! My name is Val. I have been working with pets since I was 16 years old. I started in a dog/cat boarding facility and now I’m a part time Vet Tech at a pet hospital . I have lots of experience with feeding schedules, long and safe walks, bathing, trimming nails, and giving lots and lots of love. I’m also CPR certified to be prepared if the unexpected happens. I will take care of your furry friends as if they were my own 🫶🏻 I’m currently working part-time in a pet hospital. Usually I’m there 2-3 days a week, which usually change every week. I have plenty of days off where I can take care of your babies. I’m pretty sure I can accommodate myself to your schedule to make everything easier for your pets. I will give lots of pets to your pawsome babies. I can also bathe them if wanted. And I will give them lots and lots of love.
About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats of all personalities, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own little fur-family. With 6+ years of dog experience and over 20 years of cat care, I’m confident, calm, and totally in tune with what pets need to feel happy and safe. I’ve owned 7+ cats over the years, cared for many pups, and even handled medication and special routines. Friends and neighbors have trusted me for ages to feed, walk, play, cuddle, and keep their pets smiling while they’re away. I’m gentle, reliable, and always focused on giving your pets the love and attention they deserve.Lots of tail wags and purrs guaranteed. Pet care fits naturally into my day because I’m a stay-at-home parent with a very flexible schedule. I’m home often, which makes it easy for me to plan walks, drop-in visits, feeding times, and play sessions around your pet’s needs. Your pet’s comfort and safety come first in my home. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and plenty of space to explore. Inside, I use gates throughout the house to keep pets out of trouble and create a calm, manageable environment. If your pet is used to structure, I can crate them as needed to keep their routine consistent. I also have two playful, friendly dogs who love making new friends and can keep your pup company—whether they enjoy gentle play or just having a buddy nearby. My goal is to make your pet feel at home, loved, and totally comfortable during their stay.
About: Fourteen years of taking care of small to large dogs. I own a 100lb Australian Shepherd lab mix. I can walk, run, visit with them and will ensure their happiness and safety is number one priority. If they have specific dieting or exercise needs, please let me know. I’m available 7 days a week and do this as my full time job so will like repeat visits. I’ve been very helpful in walking much larger dogs too and can lift them if needed. If your pet has a handicap I’m very careful to their needs and can work with them however you need. I have a cart too that I bring on walks for dogs that are recovering or have an injury so they can still enjoy the outdoors or move around.

“Kelly is sweet, caring and responsible. She was able to fit us into her schedule despite having prior arrangements. She sent me lots of pictures and a detailed update after walking my dog. Both my dog and I loved meeting her and will definitely book again.”

About: As a speech therapist for 10 months out of the year, I primarily work with children and enjoy spending summers outdoors with my own dog, Cooper. I have 10 years of experience pet sitting and dog walking, through Rover as well as for friends and neighbors. I am comfortable maintaining your dog’s training and walking routines to ensure safe, fun walks together! (Cooper will stay at home, he is a whole lot of 100 lbs and receives his own walks. He does not resource guard and has never been a bite risk). I’m looking to dog walk and/or dog sit in the summer, when I am off from my public school job. This would be during the months of July and August, but depending on the hour I can be available before July (after 4:30 pm). During the summer I have a very flexible schedule. I have a fenced in yard and a split level home. I can keep our dogs separate or introduce them depending on your preference and whether they can acclimate (Cooper is a big boy but docile and friendly).
