“Chris is the absolute best!! He has walked Baxter so many times and taken care of him overnight at our house. I always know Baxter is in great hands, in the photos he sends Baxter is literally being his happiest self! I would highly recommend Chris for both walks and overnight stays! 💕”
“Nicole was amazing with my dog snowy. She always comes on time, communicates with me about snow’s walk and feeding and is super professional and helpful. She accepted a late notice booking which was a big help when I’m not home to walk my dog myself!”
“Stephanie is an outstanding care taker for our baby Phoebe. She goes above and beyond to make sure our anxious pup feels comfortable and safe. She pays very close attention to detail and takes care of Phoebe as if she were her own. Couldn’t recommend her more!”
About: I’ve always been a dog person and grew up with dogs my whole life. I regularly help take care of my parents’ dog and have watched dogs for friends and family over the years. I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and am available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. I’ve always loved being around dogs and enjoy getting outside for walks. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, exercise, or some extra company while you’re away, I’m happy to help and make sure they feel cared for and comfortable. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I will always follow your instructions, respect your home, and make sure your pet stays safe, happy, and on their normal routine. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away
“Michelle did so great with Zephyr! We were so worried about having to leave him alone all day for the first time. He's only 8 months old, so we really needed to break up his alone time. I was so nervous, but Michelle made everything so much better! Zephyr had the best time with her and we are definitely going to have her back!”
“Alexa is terrific with our sometimes difficult dog. He loved her from the moment he met her! Alexa is extremely conscientious, keeping me updated on her arrival and departure and always checking his food and water before she leaves. And she takes the BEST pictures of their walks!”
“It was our first time having Hanaya help us out and she was upbeat and positive from the beginning. She cared for my two CKCS’s like they were her own. She shows a true love for dogs and her experience with them shows. I highly recommend her!”
About: I have been a dog lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my childhood dog was such an important part of my family, and ever since her passing, I’ve always felt a piece missing. While living in Florida, I began helping my mom at a local animal shelter by walking the dogs, and that experience only deepened my love and passion for caring for them. Since I work a full-time job, my availability during the week is somewhat limited. However, I am available for local dog walks in the mornings before work and again after work. I also have a very flexible schedule on weekends and am more than willing to work with you to find times that best fit your schedule. I am more than happy to meet your dog ahead of time before walking them just so they get a sense of my behavior and I can get an understanding of theirs. Sidenote: I do live in an apartment and due to my lease, I am unable to have them in my home.
About: Ever since I was a kid, I’ve had a soft spot for animals and a dream of having every furry friend in the world! Now, I’m turning that childhood passion into reality by pet sitting. I started small, taking care of my neighbors’ dogs, and their wagging tails and happy barks have convinced me to expand my love for pets through Rover. With a growing list of repeat customers, I’m excited to offer my services part-time! I believe that every pet deserves love and attention, and I treat each one like my own. Whether it’s playtime in the park or snuggles on the couch, I’m here to ensure your furry family members feel safe, happy, and loved. Let’s make your pet’s day together! 🐾❤️ Working from home gives me the flexibility to offer personalized pet care whenever your furry companions need it! I optimize my weeks to fit in visits, walks, and playtime, ensuring your pets get the attention they deserve while you’re busy. Let’s create a schedule that works for both you and your pets! I believe every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to fit their individual needs. By really listening to you and observing your pet's behavior—whether it’s their tail flicks, reactions, or little quirks—I can provide the best experience for them. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities, and I’m here to ensure they feel loved and understood!
“Luke is wonderful - always arrives right on time and is enthusiastic. The dogs can’t want for his arrival each day! The dogs wait eagerly by the door and are exhausted when they come home.”
“Nicole was fabulous I expect at a minimum that dog walkers would be good with dogs, but what really makes the difference is they’re able to navigate challenges and get the job done. It provides a lot of peace of mind. Not only did Nicole navigate my complicated building but she got what was once a very timid puppy to be less afraid. Nicole is a star.”
“Amazing thank you so so much! First time using rover so was a little nervous but they did an awesome job with communication and sending pics to let me know my Cody was doing well on his walks :) 10/10 would use again. Thank you!!”
About: Since I was ~12, my neighbors would always bring their dogs for me to watch/walk while they were on vacation. More recently, I have also walked friends and neighbors dogs while they are at work (I work remote). I work remote in a flexible job, so I’m able to give lots of attention to your dog. I can walk them 4+ times per day depending on your needs, I live right near grass if they only want to go out to pee, and I am a 1 min walk from a small dog park if they love to run off leash. I live in an apartment with my own dog, so I always make sure everything is pet friendly - no harmful cleaning chemicals, air filters, only dog treats. I even have a reverse osmosis water filter to give your doggo luxury water :)
About: I’ve had animals my whole life, including dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles. I’ve trained multiple puppies, cared for senior dogs, and have years of experience looking after cats. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and always make sure each pet feels safe and loved. I currently work from home, so I have a flexible schedule for walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. At the moment, I’m not able to offer boarding, as my own pets may not adjust well to new animals in the home. My approach is calm and understanding. I like to respect each pet’s unique personality and habits. I don’t believe in being overly strict, but I always make sure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I cared for my yorkie for 14 years, who needed special attention and care in his senior years. I would care for your dog as if it were my own. I work remotely 2 days a week in Stamford (the Cove). I have more flexibility on the weekends (Friday-Monday). Contact me and we can see if my schedule works for your needs! I would follow all your instructions and be respectful of your home and pet rules in the home. I would treat your home with the utmost care as a guest.
“Melissa was wonderful with my dog! She is such a loving spirit and I knew Micah was cared for during his time with her! She was super patient and caring even when my dog was overly energetic and hyper.”
“Katharine is absolutely wonderful! She’s reliable, caring and clearly loves dogs. My dog is so excited every time she arrives, and I always know he’s in great hands. She sends updates and photos after each walk. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind!”
Cove-East Side dog parents share their Rover experiences
Josh is everything you want in a dog walker. He is 100% reliable and he communicates often and promptly. And of course he loves pets and he will make sure that your pet is extremely well cared for. If you have any special instructions Josh will adhere to them perfectly. So if you hire Josh you will know that your pet is in excellent hands and you can have total peace of mind.
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Arianne. She was our regular dog walker for Boosh and Graham, and we are genuinely heartbroken that she’s moving away. From day one, Arianne was incredibly reliable — always prompt, on time, and extremely communicative. We never once had to worry when the dogs were in her care. What truly set Arianne apart was the way she cared for our dogs as if they were her own. She was attentive, thoughtful, and clearly took the time to understand their personalities and needs. Boosh and Graham absolutely adored her, and it was obvious how comfortable and happy they were with her. Arianne consistently went above and beyond, whether through detailed updates, photos, or simply the peace of mind she gave us knowing our dogs were safe, loved, and well cared for. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have her — we would continue using her forever if we could. We give Arianne our highest possible recommendation without hesitation!
Teresa was amazing with my 1 year old puppy! She had great communication from the start and made sure to ask thoughtful, thorough questions- even checking in about where I was comfortable having my dog walked. I really appreciated the detailed update and adorable photos she sent. It’s always nerve wracking having someone new watch your fur baby, but I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in her care. I’ll definitely be booking with Teresa again!
Katharine is absolutely wonderful! She’s reliable, caring and clearly loves dogs. My dog is so excited every time she arrives, and I always know he’s in great hands. She sends updates and photos after each walk. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind!
