About: Hi! I’m a proud dog mom to two lovable Frenchies—a sweet senior and a playful goofball—who’ve taught me patience, care, and how every pup has their own vibe.

About: Dogs are my passion! To me this isn’t a job but a hobby and a way for owners to feel at ease when having to leave their dog. I grew up with dogs and my family dogs do not live with me in my apartment so I’m always looking for dog company! From long walks to playing fetch, I will keep your dog entertained and cared for. I am trustworthy and reliable and would love to care for your dog. I typically work from home 2-3 days a week and can be flexible on which days to accommodate scheduling requests. Always available on fridays and weekends for the most part. I’m in an apartment building on the 6th floor. We have a dog park on site but I would also just walk your dog around the area. (Whatever you prefer). I’m very cautious with elevators and wouldn’t ride one if another dog is in it at the same time. I also like to provide pics and updates to the owner throughout the day so they feel at ease. I have a roommate who also loves dogs and has one as well - a shitzu. He is very friendly and calm.
About: I began taking care of dogs at 17 for families that I would also babysit for. Taking dogs on walks and sometimes boarding them for the weekend became my first full time job after graduating high school. I now live in Florida and love taking care of animals for fun! I'm available any time during the day for walks Mon-Fri. I may be able to accommodate Saturdays and Sundays upon request. I am always flexible and happy to work out what time works best for you. I have my own apartment with a lot of space to fit any of the dogs necessities including crate, bed, blankets, etc. I make sure to always wipe dogs paws after walks.
“Came over within just a few minutes of me requesting to help me out last minute since I wasn’t feeling well enough to walk my two doggies. Anastasiia and her husband helped me since both of my dogs needed to be walked. Truly appreciate them!!!!”

Dorsey-Riverbend dog parents share their Rover experiences
There’s nobody else we would rather have take care of our babies. Anastasiia & Vadim are the unequivocally the best! We actively recommend their service to our friends that might be traveling. Both are knowledgable, kind and accommodating; they are the only people we regularly trust to watch over our kids while we’re out of town.
Christina is the very best! She was willing to introduce herself to my furbabies in a neutral location before the booking began and enthusiastically assured me that she would be a great choice! She even brought little treats that my dogs loved! Christina was on time for the scheduled walks, prompt in responding to my text messages, and always left a helpful description of her time with my two dogs. I felt at ease and comfortable being out of the state knowing that Christina would be looking after the pups!
I had a fantastic experience with Agustina! She was available on short notice and even offered a meet and greet beforehand, which gave me great peace of mind. During the visit, she took my dog Arya on her full walk (no shortcuts!), sent plenty of updates and adorable photos, and left a very detailed report afterward. It was clear Arya received so much love and attention—I felt completely worry-free. I will definitely be rebooking Agustina for future visits and recommending her to my friends. Highly recommend!
Sean’s been great with my shepherd boy! He’s great at communicating, has been flexible and accommodating with us, and really listens about care needs (our dog is a bit higher maintenance). And despite my boy’s general aloofness and disinterest in making friends, he seems to already like Sean.
Daniel was beyond great! He really made us feel at ease when leaving our dog for a few days. Daniel was in constant communication and sent over videos along with pictures to keep us updated about our dog, Leo. Definitely plan on re-booking his services again. Highly recommend!
