I appreciated how willing and confident she was in taking care of my reactive dog—he took to her immediately and I LOVED the updates Barbara gave me from their walks! The cutest photos!!

“This is the 3rd time Yolanda had taken care of Streets in my absence and she's been great. She competent, resourceful and always keeps me informed. She is easy to get a hold of and as long as she is available, I will always choose her to look after Streets if I will be away.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have nearly 30 years of hands-on experience caring for pets as an adult. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine and comfort level. I’m patient, attentive and affectionate, and I’ll treat your pet with the same love and care I would give my own. I’m especially comfortable caring for cats and small dogs and will always follow your pet’s normal feeding, walking, playtime and care routine. My schedule is currently very flexible, so I’m able to give your pet plenty of attention, companionship and care throughout the day. I’m available on weekdays and weekends and can accommodate a variety of schedules. I enjoy spending time at home, so pets staying with me will have lots of company, playtime, affection and attention. I provide a clean, calm and comfortable home where your pet can feel safe and relaxed. I only care for pets from one family at a time, allowing me to provide personalized attention without the stress of unfamiliar animals. I carefully follow all feeding, walking and care instructions and will maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Your pet will be treated like part of the family while in my care.
“Michelle took wonderful care of my dogs while I was at work all day! I have one dog that is very nervous around new people, and my other is a rescue from an abusive home, so there’s few people that I can trust them with. Michelle was patient and capable, I knew they were in good hands with her. Definitely recommend her services for all dogs!”

About: I grew up on a farm and have been around cats and dogs my entire life. We always had several cats at home and dogs outside, so caring for animals was just a normal part of growing up for me. I’ve taken care of cats from when they were tiny kittens all the way into old age. My last cat had diabetes, and I cared for him for years, including giving him insulin injections every day. I’m very comfortable feeding, playing with, cleaning up after, and caring for both cats and dogs. I’ve always loved animals and really enjoy spending time with them and making sure they’re happy and comfortable. I’m also a native Russian speaker and speak Russian fluently. I am retired now and have a very free schedule as of now. I am very flexible and have availabilities any time and any day! I live inside an apartment, it's in a nice area with a nice park nearby. The building allows all types of pets inside there.
“Yosha took such good care of Luke for the 4 days she was booked. Highly recommend her, not only does she walk and feed your pup but she pays special attention and care with the pup. I will definitely be booking her again!”
“Tiffany has been walking my Fiona for a couple weeks now and we couldn’t be happier!!! We are thrilled and privileged to have her in our lives!!! I would recommend her to everyone! Thank you Tiffany. So grateful we have you!!”
About: I've quantitatively proven that dog is Mans' best friend. My pet sitting experiences have taught me how to care for senior dogs with illnesses, how to care for untrained dogs, as well as how to take care for the coats of double coated dogs(Siberian Huskies). I work part time from home, with flexible hours, which gives me the opportunity to take care of your loved ones! I'm in a suburban/residential area which provides quiet sidewalks and parks for enrichment. And for those pooches who love a good walk and the great outdoors, there are beaches and nature trails only 30 minutes away, where I'd be happy to bring them, on leash of course! A typical day with your dog includes, Wake up with dog Snooze with dog. Get out of bed with dog. Take walk with dog. Make breakfast with dog. Sit and play with dog in yard. People and dog watch with dog in yard. Sit and play with dog in house. Take dog for walk. Make dinner for dog. Watch movie with dog. Bed time with dog. Flexible schedule makes me available to board and care for the dogs of your family whenever. I am located in a suburban area of Brooklyn, with options for on leash trail and beach walks for pooches that walk for multiple hours. Scheduled walks outside the yard of more than 25 minutes may require an increased price, which I would coordinate with the pet parent. I primarily care for one client at a time, which helps direct my full attention to your dog or dogs. I have a fenced yard with a automatic closing gate. The front of the house also has an additional mesh fence, to prevent dogs from sticking their mouths inside or outside of the fence. A smart collar is available, which your dog could borrow for walks to add an extra degree of security.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bensonhurst
Ciara has been walking Cocoa for a few months now, and she continues to be my #1 most trusted person to care for my poodle. She is very communicative, flexible, kind, and always shares lots of photos of their walk and once he’s settled back in at home. Highly recommend!
Ksenia is the best dog walker! This was our first time using a dog walking service, and we were a bit nervous at the beginning, but Ksenia exceeded our expectations! She is so kind, caring, and responsible. Knowing our dog was in such good hands gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We’re so happy we found her and would absolutely recommend her! Thank you so much, Ksenia!
I almost never write reviews but I felt the need to do so here. Andy is A++ and as much as I would love to keep him on call for myself he deserves the review and people deserve to know there’s someone caring/reliable out there. As someone who is really particular about my dog’s care, I was nervous as I was about to go away for the longest trip I’d ever taken. My dog is a senior and while in good health needs a little extra TLC. I’ve never had anyone besides family take care of her and my parents needed some help with the long trip this time around. Andy was a gem to find. He walked my dog twice a day and showed up on time every time. He provided consistent updates with every walk. Most importantly he carried my 50lb girl up the stairs no problem. I even messed up my home address for our first meeting and he still made the effort to come meet her within the hour. It’s a long review but I hope this helps other people find great care for their dog as well.
Gabriella took the time to come meet Koko ahead of the first walk and took note of all our special requests. The walk went smoothly and we got so many pictures. Our dog warmed up to her right away, you can tell she takes great care with animals. Thank you Gabriella, we will definitely be using her services again!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Bensonhurst. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Bensonhurst after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bensonhurst. On Rover:
- 83% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
