“I was brand new to Rover and very nervous at first since it was my first time leaving Bronx with someone I did not know but Nicole put my mind at ease and was great and reliable! I will be sure to use her again and she is highly Recommended plus Bronx loves her!”
4. Ryan O.
“I cannot recommend Ryan enough. Ryan is reliable, patient, experienced, and kind. He loves animals and can be trusted to meet pets’ special needs. My dog is a bit high strung, and Ryan always gives him extra attention and calms him. Ryan also has gained the trust of my cat, which was no easy task. She is afraid of everything and almost everyone. Having Ryan care for the pets allows me to relax when I am away because I know they are in good hands. It is a huge relief.”

She grew up with dogs and is known to bring them with her everywhere including on vacation. She is very passionate about animals in general and has a big heart for them, her dogs are her family. She would be a great addition to the rover community!”

“So grateful for Sally. She is a true pet lover and she took great care (and had a lot of patience) for my high energy pup. I will definitely reach out to her again!”
12. Samantha P.
“I can't think of anyone else better suited for your position. Sam is the most compassionate, enthusiastic pet lover that I have met. She has a menagerie of pets herself. She treats them like her children. If they are unwell, she will take extra measures to make them better, whether it be taking them to the vet, adjusting their diets, or providing them with more play time. In addition, Sam has taken care of our pets (dogs and cats) many times. Quite honestly, they are probably treated better in her care than ours. She is reliable, hardworking, and loving. Plus, she has years of experience in the dog walking/pet sitting field. You would be very lucky to have her on your team.”

16. Kelsy P.
“Kelsy is a very caring and loving person who has always loved animals and especially dogs. She has cared for dogs throughout her life and always treats them as her own. When any dog she knows sees her they get very excited and they know that she loves them. She would be an excellent companion and friend for any of your 4 legged family members.”
17. Jackie J.
“Jackie was awesome!! She met with us ahead of time and made sure she knew where everything was to ensure a smooth transition the day of the walk. She is so kind and friendly in addition to being so wonderful with our dog! He was fed, walked, and happy when we got home. I would highly recommend Jackie!”
