“She is so patient and caring for my dogs i have one that is very shy and she takes her time in helping her build confidence which is so helpful definitely booking her more often”
“Jacob walked our two big kids Maggie & Milo for 6 days and put up with all their pulling and stubbornness. We could not have asked for a friendlier, more conscientious or patient person to deal with these two critters. I'm giving Jacob 5 stars and my strongest recommendation to anyone looking for an A+ walker.”
About: Hello there everyone! My name is Barri, and I am very excited to be offering my sitting services to the community! I am looking forward to meeting all of your furry companions. I am an absolute dog lover, and I would provide your dog with the proper care and plenty of love and affection. I have.been a dog owner most of my life, and I am very aware of their daily needs for proper nourishment, physical activity, and socialization. To me pets are part of our families, and they should be treated as such. I know how much our furry companions mean to us so of course whatever you tell me your dog needs is what they will receive. With my tender love and care your pet will be in good hands! I am home every day of the week and available to provide care on weekends as well. I am able to drive so distance is no issue. I only sit one dog at a time. I have a cozy apartment with enough space to run around and feel cozy in a dog bed or on my couch! I make sure my home is kept free of any safety hazards and Iisten to all instructions from the owner. Your dog will be safe with a lot of TLC!!
“Dean is great!! Super reliable, communicative and amazing with my dog Dior. I booked Dean superrr last minute this weekend and he responded immediately, kept me updated throughout the walks and I can’t wait to book him again”
About: My first ever working experience was walking a friend of my family’s dog when I was 13. I also have a pitbull named Brandy who is not the best behaved, so I feel like I can handle walking most dogs. I also grew up with a cat so I have experience with cats too. I am currently enrolled in university, so during weekdays I can only do pet care after my classes which is usually in the afternoon. On weekends however I am pretty available and open to overnight sitting. I will walk, feed, and play with pets based on owner’s instructions and make sure they’re okay throughout my time with them. If no instructions are given I’ll use my best judgement to make sure the pet is okay.
“Kristina took care of our sighthound for lunchtime walks while I was away for a week. She did great and also helped pickup solme mess my dog made while home alone which was great. Would recommend!”
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 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!

“Very good job taking care of Echo and be flexible with times to walk him. Kamryn is receptive to advice about the dog and seemed to be excited to interact with him during walks.”
“Justin really helped us out when he walked our (sometimes stubborn and very strong) dog 2x a day for two weeks when we couldn’t walk him. He was communicative and good to work with! We would book with him again. Thank you Justin!”
“I had such a great experience with Angela while I was away! Communication was always easy and consistent, and I felt very comfortable knowing Max was in good hands. What made me feel even better was seeing how quickly Max got comfortable with her. Every time he saw her, he would wag his tail and get so excited, which gave me so much peace of mind because I could tell he was happy and felt safe with her. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to walk their dog. I would absolutely use her again anytime I need someone to take care of Max. Thank you so much for taking such good care of him! ❤️”
About: In the span of my life, I had 4 dogs and currently I am taking care of 1. I also have taken care of family and friends' dog by bathing, feeding and walking them. I'm currently a full-time student at Mercy university meaning I could schedule walks or pet-sitting around my classes and study sessions. It can also be a relaxing break that helps me recharge while getting some fresh air. Plus, pet care can be flexible, allowing me to pick times that fit best with my weekly schedule. When caring for pets as a dog walker, I prioritize preparation and safety, ensuring pets have everything needed for a comfortable walk. I monitor their behavior closely, adjust pace based on energy levels, and offer personalized updates post-walk. I’m flexible with scheduling, accommodating my school responsibilities and my clients’ needs.
“Luis came in clutch with a last minute booking! I’m so thankful because I was traveling and it put my mind at ease to have my puppy taken care of. Tripp was so happy to see Luis each day and get his walks and play time. Luis is very confident with dogs who are sweeties but need redirection and a little extra support.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bronx
Renso has been wonderful with Leah. He’s gentle and patient with her, which means a lot because she’s been grieving the loss of her person. He communicates clearly and often, so even though I don’t live nearby, I always know how the walk went. He texts when he arrives instead of ringing the bell, which keeps Leah calm. He’s been very accommodating when we’ve changed the schedule, and he’s easy to work with. We’re so grateful for him. Highly recommend!
It is so hard to find a reliable, dependable, trustworthy person that will come into your home when you are not there and care for your furry baby. Shelly is that person. She is kind, loving, flexible and truly cares for animals. Shelly, thank you for the love you give to Cavi and the dedication you have to this profesion.
Hana was amazing with ocean. First dog walker where he goes willingly without any convincing on the first try ! Which is a great sign since ocean is generally a shy and nervous dog when he doesn’t know someone at first. Hana was also very punctual and accommodating and amazing with ocean . Will definitely Book her again for ocean 🌊 💙 look no further and book Hana !!
Jessica was really great with our foster dog Jimmy! She came the day before the first scheduled walk to get to know Jimmy and took the time to practice the steps of how to get him in and out of his crate. She showed a lot of patience and love for all of us - which was much appreciated as Jimmy is my first foster and my first attempt at crate training. When we first got Jimmy, he had a cast on his leg. Jessica was fine with carrying him up/down steps and she also followed the medical restrictions for his walk. Jessica communicated with me everyday on how Jimmy did during his walk and how he behaved going in/out of the crate. She also sent me adorable photos of Jimmy.
Leona has been walking my dog, Max, for several years now, and I cannot recommend her enough! They are incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and punctual. [Dog's Name] absolutely adores them and gets so excited every time they arrive. If you want peace of mind and top-tier care for your pet, hire [Walker's Name]!
Adrian was awesome! I’m so lucky to have found him and on such short notice. My Fable is really friendly but very shy around new people, but Adrian made me feel comfortable leaving her in his care for a daily walks. He communicated when he was going to walk her and when he was done. He even sent photos so I could see that she was out and about. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!

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 Bronx. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

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.
