“Ryan is super responsive, reliable, and friendly! He was so good with my two cats and my dog. I really look forward to working with him again! I highly recommend him to anyone else who’s looking for a caregiver for their pets. Thank you, Ryan!!”

“Katie was wonderful with my dog, Wednesday! She arrived right on time, kept me updated throughout the walk, and let me know about anything she encountered along the way. I really appreciated the photos she sent, which gave me peace of mind and showed that Wednesday was happy and well cared for. Katie was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about providing great service. I was extremely happy with the care she provided and will definitely be booking her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have experience caring for my friends’ and family’s pets. I love taking them on walks, playing with them, giving them lots of attention, and even giving them baths! I’m patient, caring, and always make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. 🐶🐾🤍 I work part-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and can usually accommodate different days and times. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they get the walks, playtime, attention, and care they need. I’m also open to last-minute requests when my schedule allows! I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and at ease when they’re with me. I’ll keep a close eye on them, make sure they’re secure during walks, and give them plenty of attention and care.
About: When I was a child my family owned and cared for dogs, horses, bunnies, and chickens which meant I became an animal caretaker at a very young age. In addition to helping to feed, groom, and clean up after our pets, I was aIso responsible for administering our dog’s daily diabetes insulin. My childhood prepared me well for becoming a dog mom to a longhaired dapple Dachshund in early 2021. I cannot imagine my life without him and cannot wait for your furbaby to become his furbuddy! I'm also the proud owner of Boogs & Boop, a small business specializing in pet accessories, with a portion of proceeds donated to supporting animal shelters and dogs in need. This commitment reflects my deep passion for caring for dogs and their well being. I work full time from home, so Dog Mom is my 24/7 job title. I am conveniently located near a park so go on at least two walks a day, weather permitting. DAYCARE CLIENTS PLEASE NOTE: 1. Daycare refers to drop off between 8-9am and 5-6pm, a 8-hour period. 2. Pick-up and drop-off times for Daycare must be scheduled in advance through direct message. 2. Late arrivals of more than 30 minutes will be charged an additional $5 per 30 minutes that you are late. Late arrivals risk interfering with other appointments, so this fee helps to accommodate that change. 3. Drop offs before 8am are subject to an Early Drop-off Fee of $10 per hour. 4. Pick up after 6pm are subject to a Late Pick-up Fee of $10 per hour. 5. Pick up after 9pm is considered boarding which is subject to double my Daycare rate. HOUSE-SITTING CLIENTS PLEASE NOTE: During house sits, I typically continue my normal schedule with other pet care clients (walks, drop-ins, etc.), so I may be out of the home for portions of the day. If your pet requires near-constant or 24/7 care, please let me know in advance. I may be able to accommodate, but this would require adjustments for my own dog and existing clients and may involve an additional fee. I care for pets in my home since I also have my furbaby to attend to. This means there’s always healthy treats, pee pads, dog wipes, and pet first aid products on hand. I understand that being away from your furbaby can be nerve-wracking, but you can rest assured that I will provide clear communication and photo updates when your pet is in my care. I do not have an attached yard, but the park is a hop, skip, and a jump away, so it’s easy to take potty breaks whenever necessary. PLEASE NOTE: 1. Please arrive with your pet on a leash. I am a strong advocate for pet safety and leash laws. 2. I do not allow guests into my home, but would be happy to meet you downstairs at drop-off and pick-up times. 3. I will ALWAYS send photos throughout the appointment, even if not directly requested. INCLEMENT WEATHER DISCLAIMER: I take all weather advisories seriously. When the heat index is above 90°F degrees or windchill is below 20°F walks will be cut short for your pet's safety and for my own. Walks will consist of “doing their business” then returning indoors. Regular service is maintained in the rain, but will be postponed due to thunder, lightning, or blizzards. Walks may be early or delayed depending on the forecast. I will always communicate with dog owners if a change of plan is necessary due to dangerous weather and temperatures. Thank you for your understanding.
“Barbara is incredible!! So thoughtful, accommodating, communicative, and kind! Such a trustworthy caretaker. 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!! She is so thorough and communicates every step of the way—I appreciate her so much and can’t wait for Sumi to see her again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bensonhurst
There’s really no one we trust Bailey with more than Ella. He’s not just “business” with her. She showers him with love and pays close attention to him. Her communication is amazing. Always letting us know when she notices anything. Out of the ordinary. We’re truly blessed to have found her.
Our puppy is a rescue and tends to be very skittish around strangers. Katie took the time out of her day to come and meet Nyx to cushion the pre-walk jitters, which meant a lot to us! Our anxious dog seemed to immediately take a liking to her and felt safe with her, so she was able to complete her walk with 0 issues. Katie was extremely communicative, thorough, and punctual. The detailed report card with many pictures gave us a lot of reassurance that Nyx was being properly cared for! She’s still a pup, so we appreciated that Katie also kept her on routine and on a personal note, we also really appreciated that she was optimistic and enjoyed spending time with our doggie! Thank you so much, Nyx can’t wait to see you again!
Kseniia was a very responsible dog walker. She only walked our dog for 4 days and she always followed our instructions. The only caveat I would mention is that larger dogs or dogs with specific behavioral needs may require very detailed instructions. For example, our excitable dog’s behavior was misunderstood as aggression. In our case, our dog’s behavior and needs were fully explained, and all of the walks went very well. Kseniia followed all of our instructions carefully.
Once again, we booked Tracy! We had a last minute trip within a few weeks of our last booking with Tracy & we were lucky they were available. Our dog, Ella, looked happy-as-can-be on all the walks; Tracy even pulled a few packages that were delivered while we were away. We recommend Tracy; 10/10, every time!
Rochelle was amazing with our dog Pinot and clearly very dedicated to taking great care of any pet she walks. She setup a meet and greet and asked all of the questions to make sure she understood Pinot’s specific needs. I really appreciated how thorough she was and super easy to work with especially for our last minute request! Will definitely work with her again!
Daniella followed our guidelines to a T and communicated during and after the walk. We got home to find our boy happy! She also checked with me about bringing some of her own treats beforehand to make sure they were good for our pup. You can absolutely trust her with your furry friends!

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 your Bensonhurst. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
