“We’ve been working with Ben for a lot of walks and one several day long pet sit. He’s been awesome. Such cute walk photos, timely, and communicates really well. We’re lucky to have him getting our dogs a little extra love”
“Jessica was great, she contacted me about needs and expectations before scouts walk and stopped by for a meet and greet! She really cared for scout on her check in and even made sure she had plenty of water before she left! Will definitely be using Jessica again.”

“Gabriel was awesome! I request Gabriel walk my Winston when I was in a pinch. He took my guy on a walk and was very patient with waiting for him to potty (the whole reason for the walk). He kept in communication with me and asked for any tips that might help my pup. If the situation ever arises again I will be sure to schedule with Gabriel!”

About: I go by Seven, I was born on a farm, I’ve worked with animals of the farm variety and of course, cats, dogs, and many more sense I was young. Volunteered at animal shelter, vets office, and farm animal facilities. I’m currently a UNM student so all my babies are at home but I plan to have my ESA Rosy join me soon, so I don’t see animals often outside of meeting fellow students pets. I have spent most of my years growing up with and around animals and have a lot of love and experience with them! I have classes m/w/f from 10am-3/1pm but other than that I’m free for any kind of help! I make sure to ask what rules or regulations have to be followed for both pet, home, and routine. I never wanna stress a pet out or an owner so I love to send photos and updates the whole time I’m there as well as make sure everyone is comfortable and happy with the job and care I give.
“TJ is AWESOME!!!!! My dog is so excited and happy to spend time with him on his walks. I am so grateful that he has been able to give him attention and exercise while I am laid up with an injury.”

I accomodate the needs of your pet..they can snuggle with me to sleep or be crated…I will walk, take to dog park, arrange play date….whatever makes your pup happy 😃
“Greg had worked with my dog a year and a half ago, and it was a very good experience. Sadly, that dog passed away but now I have a new dog and I reached out to Greg to see if he could help me get Scooby some extra exercise. He jumped right back in and is helping me and Scooby get off to a good start from the shelter! Greg is great with dogs, and very respectful when it comes to scheduling and communication”
“Casper is great for drop in visits with my cats! So grateful to have him look after, care for and give love to the cats when I’m gone! He goes above and beyond just playing with them by checking their food, water and litter boxes! Will book again!”
About: I grew up in a house where my parents would regularly foster dogs cats and other small critters like lizards and rodents, and in doing so I've gotten a lifetime of experience with animals of all sizes and attitudes, not only caring for them, but also playing with and training them. In college I started sitting my friends animals "under the table" in order to make some money and I've gotten experience sitting, walking and playing with animals of all sizes and attitudes. So whether you need someone to watch your anxious Pomeranian at home, or go running with your fit and active German shepherd or Labrador, I can be the one for the job! I have a very flexible work from home schedule so I can work with your pets anytime including during common weekday work hours such as 9-5. My personal home is a very small apartment that unfortunately only has room for (and only allows) small cats. I am very comfortable working with large dogs however and have lived with multiple in the past through roommates and family members. I've always been happy to step forward and care for the dogs in my home, not only helping them keep fed and cared for, but also stimulated enriched and happy. Prior to my current living situation I lived with the owner of a pitbull and a large mixed breed dog who were both very high energy and I had no issue loving them and keeping up with them in play and walks.
“Hossanna is an incredible dog walker! She's reliable, loves what she does, and always gives thoughtful notes and pictures during her drop ins. I would absolutely recommend booking Hossanna for all your dog care needs.”
“Hannah was great! Took time to meet my puppy and I on zoom before walk and gave me great advice as a new dog mom. Hannah kept sent a pic from the walk and all went well. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve been looking after pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments since adolescence, and now I have two young cats of my own and regularly look after and train two family working breed dogs. I am patient and will meet your pet where they need—I never take shyness personally and know your fur baby may just need a little patience and gentleness! I’ve worked with a respected local trainer for 5 years on Canine Good Citizen behavior and walking reactive dogs. So, I come with valuable dog training experience, especially for young, rambunctious dogs! (All of my training methods are force-free.) If your pet takes medications, I’m adept at administering multiple forms, including pills and liquid, and I am attentive about health care needs. Whether you have a high energy working breed, a little lap dog, or a mellow senior, I will give them the best care they could have that doesn’t come from yourself. I work full-time remotely as an education publishing editor; I am primarily available for dog walking in the weekday afternoons after 3 PM. I can make some special arrangements for walks before 7 AM on weekdays as well. I am generally available most days of the week for pet sitting, particularly for cats that just need someone to feed, check in on them, and spend time with them once or twice per day (morning, afternoon, or evening). I will never let your pet off leash outside your fenced-in yard or home. Your pet will never be without access to water. I will never leave anything potentially hazardous to your pet (food, chemicals, chords, etc.) within their reach. Your pet will always be supervised when eating anything, including chew toys/bones, and I will never feed your pet something you do not regularly feed them unless you have given me express permission to give them a treat of my own. Your pet will never greet another person’s pet so as not to provoke an incident or medical emergency. If your dog is crate trained, I will return your dog to their crate for their safety when I am leaving them.
“Stasia is a wonderful petsitter. Our house was cleanly organized, our dog was happy. What else do you need for your petsitter other than taking good care of the four legged kids and the house. She proactively checked if I'd need her to water the plants, which she did. Got our dog's pics. Great petsitter!”
About: I pet sat dogs when I was younger and cats for years. I have more time now and would love to give your babies a lot of attention. 🐶 😺 I currently work from home Sunday, Tues and Thursday, with a LOT of flexibility. I am available overnight 7 days per week with little notice and can adapt to your pets needs. I can care for pets in your home and follow your rules and your pets needs as directed. I'm an adult with a grown kiddo who also loves animals and can give extra attention! ❤️
Yale Village dog parents share their Rover experiences
Greg is a natural dog whisperer. I was reluctant when I first started using Rover, but I knew that I didn’t want to board my dogs every time I left town. My goal was to find a dog walker with the aspirations of finding a house sitter who could stay with our dogs when we travel. Let’s face it, it’s a total stranger and these are my babies and one of my babies is very particular about strangers. That baby happens to be a 200 pound English Mastiff so it’s hard to find people that want to walk him but also that he trusts. Well, it worked! Greg started walking our Mastiff three times a week prior to housesitting and our dog (s) fell in love with him. It was an easy transition. The housesitting was also a success. 🌈 I’m not going to lie, I gulped at first when I saw how much it would cost for the housesitting. However, when I looked at the cost to board 4️⃣ dogs, have them groomed, pay for the extra playtime bc lets face it, they are in a cage and then multiply it by four-I justified it and put faith in the Universe that it would work out. Greg took care of them as if they were his own. He walked each of them twice a day and played with them. We were able to leave the dogs in their environment, with their routine, their food, I could go on and on. Why Greg is so great: ⏰for starters he’s punctual — always on time. 📱 I love that you can see where they walk and he always takes pictures of the dogs while they’re on their walk and sends them to me. 🐕🐶The dogs love him. I’m going to regret weiting this review bc now he is going to be booked liked crazy, but he deserves the shout out!
Travis is amazing with dogs! He took great care of our adorable, but sometimes reactive (and very strong) mini-pit, and even helped her behave better on the leash! He is thoughtful, caring, responsible and detail oriented. We look forward to working with Travis again and could not recommend him more highly!
