“Sarah is an incredible dog walker for my senior dog. She was consistently reliable, communicative, and clearly cared deeply about my dog’s well-being. Sarah was attentive to our dog’s needs, accommodating, and always made us feel at ease knowing he was in good hands. I truly appreciated her professionalism, kindness, and the genuine care she showed throughout our time working together. I am grateful for all of her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker.”
“Travis and Mel are great! They have a very flexible schedule, super responsive to my messages and instructions. They are always on the schedule time for their walk and very lovely with my dog. Kacey has the best time with them!”
“Jessica and her husband Ulisies have been a wonderful help for my family during a very trying time. I couldn't be more grateful for the way they have shown up to walk my dog and shower her with love and affection as if she was their own. Wonderful service and wonderful people overall. Will definitely continue working with them!”
“Lucy is taking Dobby for 1-h walks twice a week. He was a little shy to go at the beginning but then came back very happy. They go to the park and he seemed to have lots of fun! Thank you, Lucy!”
“This was my first time using Rover and Victor made a great first impression! He was able to get my shy pup to open up and by the end of the booking, they were besties! He was very great with communication and always made sure to let me know how my dog was doing. Would recommend Victor to a friend!”
“Alexis is a wonderful dog walker. He is a fast walker, so if you have a big dog, don't worry if they'll get enough exercise. He was on time and communicative. I would recommend Alexis to any person who needs a reliable dog walker.”
About: I am a highly skilled pet caregiver based in the Bronx with extensive experience in managing the care of dogs and cats in the city and the boroughs. I have successfully handled anxious and high-energy pets, as well as animals with complex dietary needs and challenging leash behaviors. I am more than capable of caring for pets with detailed care instructions. When entrusted with your pet, you can expect frequent and detailed photo and text updates to keep you informed on how your fur baby is doing. I guarantee to keep your pet entertained and engaged in your absence, ensuring a worry-free experience for you. Your pet will receive the same level of care and attention as if they were my own! I work part-time in the entertainment industry, so I have a very flexible schedule. I update my Rover calendar weekly. For the time being, I can only accept bookings accessible by NYC public transportation, including Metro-North and NJ Transit. I have been vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19. I am happy to wear a mask when interacting with humans in your home if requested - I may also mask for my safety. For dogs' safety, I do not take dogs to dog parks, take them off-leash, or simultaneously walk dogs from different households unless I am extremely familiar with the dogs' behavior and the activity is approved by the owners.
About: I’ve been a dog walker for 2+ years, I have experience working at a dog daycare, dog walking, dog sitting, cat sitting, and drop in feeding for both. I am patient, reliable and punctual. I pay attention, take animals safety seriously and will take very good care of your pets. Rain or shine, snow or summer heat won’t stop me from showing up 😁 I am willing to do meet and greets! I’ve mainly worked in Manhattan (preferably I choose to work all around Manhattan) , I can come to Brooklyn or Queens to dog/cat sit and commute is no problem for me. I am available weekdays and weekends, I have lots of free time and I would like to use that to work as much as I can. I understand that each cat/dog has their own needs and some require special attention and/or care, such as diaper changes for disabled dogs or pets that take certain medications, I am experienced with these and I can do it. I can and will do whatever the pet needs, I’ll be present and take care of them.
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a child, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra love and patience. I have volunteered at our local animal shelter where I took care of mummies and disabled dogs. I currently do not have a dog, and have plenty of love and care to give to yours! I work from home and will have flexibility based on your dog's needs. I am happy to board your dog during the day or overnight, and I will be able to take them out for as many walks as needed. I am currently in a house with a fenced backyard, giving dogs extra space to safely play, explore, and get fresh air throughout the day. In general, I follow instructions to the T. You can have peace of mind. For boarding, I am happy to follow your instructions including crating and walk schedule.
About: I worked at Petsmart for about 4 years and I’ve had experience with every pet you can imagine from puppies to fish to cats. You name it I’ve taken care of I work a part time job so I’m available everyday of the week including weekends! Whenever you need me give me a call I’ll be there I follow my pet parents rules! Certain things your baby can’t eat? Fine with me. Your fur baby needs a bedtime story even better. Does your fur baby love walks? Let’s hit the park. I also offer house keeping as well
About: I started working with pets at the start of the pandemic, when my mom surprised the household with an energetic and anxious goldendoodle. He was 50 pounds and 5 feet long, and insisted on peeing in every corner of the house. I dedicated myself to training him, and he now serves as a service animal for mental health disorders. In the last six years, I have worked with dogs of all breeds and sizes, rabbits, birds, and cats. I can't wait to get to know your fur-baby :) I am available everyday between the hours of 9:00am - 3:00pm, but am able to make other arrangements if needed. Please feel free to contact me if amended hours are needed! My services include providing multiple daily walks, food, potty breaks, and playtime with your pet (dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds) in your home. I am also able to train pets at all levels of obedience to perform a series of tricks ranging from sit to retrieving medications.
About: I love animals; I've always had a strong connection with them, and I give them a lot of love and respect. I feed them, bathe them, and let them take their naps. I also take them for walks and play with them. I'm not currently working; I'll be dedicating my time to taking care of puppies since I really enjoy being at home and I love dogs. I have a fenced-in yard and I can also keep them in a room I have available for this purpose. The puppy will be very comfortable.
About: Most of my pet care experience is actually on my resume I've been working pet related jobs my whole life and so this is my first time actually doing it as a service on my own. I'm looking forward to letting my experience shine here on Rover to show exactly what sets me apart from the rest. I have been living in a zoo my whole life so essentially throwing in a few more pets really wouldn't be an issue to me. I have a set schedule for my pets to be fed routinely however if I am advised upon providing food to your pet at a specific time I'll just follow your rules because I'm pretty sure that your pet is already accustomed to the feeding schedule that you may have them on.
About: I am a vet assistant in a clinic located in the Bronx. I started off as a volunteer and worked my way up. I love all pets and taking care of them. I also use to work in a dog daycare before becoming an employer at the clinic. I work with pets all the time when not in school and I have two of my own. My dog’s name is Diamond and my turtle is Torkischa. I make sure to follow instructions, while also making sure that the pet itself feels safe and comfortable. I do photo updates and reach out in case of anything.
About: I grew up in Washington DC and I graduated from Wesleyan University in 2024. Since then, I have been preparing for my medical school applications. I am a certified EMT and I recently took my MCAT. Before I wanted to be a doctor I dreamed of being a veterinarian. I wanted to be around animals and care for them so badly that my parents signed me up for Cub Creek Science Camp (an animal camp). After two years as a camper, I got the opportunity to be an Animal Specialist in Training! This came with the responsibility of caring after the animals at the camp and leading activities for the campers. I grew always having dogs around the house and being at animal camp allowed me to learn about caring for all animals (cats, snakes, rodents, birds, etc.). I approach animal care with the utmost responsibility and care. Please note, I am very familiar and comfortable with specialized care. I have two senior dogs and one of them is blind. I am currently in the application process for medical school so I have a lot of flexibility and time in my schedule to look after your pups and kitties! I care for my pets daily and ensure they have everything they need to be happy and healthy. I love animals and approach every pet the same way I do my own. I want to gain an understanding of your pets’ regular routine and replicate that so they feel the most comfortable once I begin caring for them.
“Joshua is an excellent dog walker. He was perfect for our Henny and she fell in love with him immediately. We can’t thank you enough for taking good care of her while we were away on vaca. I’ll definitely be booking again soon!”
Borough of Bronx dog parents share their Rover experiences
This was my second time booking with Hector, and once again he did an excellent job caring for my dog. He is reliable, communicative, and always attentive to my dog’s needs. I appreciate how respectful and professional he is when coming into my home, which makes the entire experience stress-free. It’s reassuring to know my dog is in good hands, and I will definitely continue rebooking with him in the future.
Emmanuel has been walking my dog Phoenix for over a year daily and he is amazing. She can be a very anxious and dog reactive Shepherd but he handles her very well and makes her feel safe. She loves him and gets so excited everytime she sees him. Emmanuel is very communicative with any changes in his schedule or if he is running late to a walk and I appreciate that so much. He's become family!
We had a fantastic experience! Annye took wonderful care of our cat, Louis (9), and our dog, Hazel (7), with drop ins and walks over a week. Communication was excellent (we received consistent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind). Both pets were happy and bonded quickly, which says a lot. Also went above and beyond to handle a few issues that came up, and did so with flexibility and care. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend!
