About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs of varying ages and have always enjoyed it immensely. I no longer have a dog of my own but I would love to make friends with yours. I am working 3 days per week (not a set schedule) and have enough time to spend with some lovely dogs. My schedule changes week to week but I am quite flexible and hopeful we can find a good agreement for dog sitting/walking. My apartment is clean and spacious and perfect for a small/medium dog to stay at and play. I do not own a crate but also would prefer if your dog is properly trained and can tolerate being in open space.

“She was great with Bumpy. I got photos daily.”

About: I have extensive pet care experience that began in my childhood. Growing up, I was responsible for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and small mammals. This early exposure taught me the essentials of animal care, from feeding and grooming to understanding their behaviors and health needs. Over the years, I have honed my skills in providing attentive and compassionate care, ensuring that each pet feels loved and well-tended. This lifelong passion has equipped me with the knowledge and empathy necessary to handle a wide range of pet care responsibilities confidently. I work from home and I am a home body except when I walk outdoors, run or bike! A walk is so much better with a dog I have plenty of space for dogs to run as I has a long hallway and a downstairs! I have parks 2 blocks down where I live and a dog area.

“My dog Harry and I have so far loved Erin and will be continuing to book her for walks. I know Harry loves Erin’s care and patience while he sunbathes, and I always appreciate the notes and photos she leaves on rover cards + appreciate her flexibility. Thank you!”

“Mother-in-law said Stella LOVED Bola and was so excited for all her walks!! The only thing she would change to make this a 5 start rating was the inconsistancy of arrival time and lack of communication in regards to being late. Overall, amazing service!! We look forward to working with Bola again in the near future!!”

About: I am a long-time animal lover who grew up with and cared for our dogs and cats in the home. I even have a pit bull terrier of my own at home now! I'm looking to use my knowledge of animal care to help other dog owners care for their pooches while they're away. I am comfortable around pets of all sizes and energy levels and will work well to adjust to your specific pet's needs. My own pooch has some reactive tendencies, so if your pet is the same just know that I know that they're just anxious about something going around them and I'm quick to make adjustments so they're more comfortable. There is no job that I will stray away from when it comes to animal care, including cleaning up any messes your pet may make. I am extremely dedicated to providing the best animal care and hope to do business with you in the near future. :)

“Consistent, punctual, communicative, and generous. She shows up everyday in a timely manner, cares for my dog, and even gives complementary baths and cleaning if she makes a mess. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 🤗 she offers a good range of services as well!!”
