This is definietey the guy you want walking your dog.”

“Skyler has been walking my dog for over a month now, and she’s been absolutely wonderful. She’s super friendly, reliable, and really knows how to handle dogs.

About: I grew up with dogs and have missed spending time with them since I moved to New York. I know the anxiety that comes with spending time away from your pet, and I love helping people know that their pet is being well taken care of when they’re away. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I can often accommodate needs during the week and weekends. This also means that I’m available throughout the day, not just in the evenings. It’s important for me to get to know the pet and have a thorough conversation with the owner regarding the pet’s needs, behaviors, and anything I should know ahead of time. I’m attentive to a pet’s behaviors, such as signs of anxiety or discomfort.
“Hannah was great with Pumbaa during our last minute walk request. She was very responsive, flexible and took Pumbaa on a great walk with a variety of exercise for him. Highly recommend and we will be using her again!”
“Dennis is wonderful and takes great care of Lena. He went the extra mile to help when I couldn’t get home because of the storms. He’s dependable and Lena seems to really like him as well.”
“Marlowe had a great time with Kristian! It was easy to book with Kristian, and he was here on time, easy to communicate with and able to adapt to Marlowe's exercise routine. Will definitely book with him again”
About: Hi! I’m [Your Name], a passionate dog lover and dedicated pet care professional. With years of hands-on experience walking and caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I treat every pup like they’re my own. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long adventure walk, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to make sure your furry friend is happy, healthy, and safe. Reliability, communication, and genuine care are at the heart of everything I do. Let me give your dog the love and exercise they deserve — tails will wag, I promise! On an average I run 4-6 miles daily. As a digital artist who works from home I tend to find myself with a lot of energy left and lots of times I would rather spend with animals and being active at that. As a husky owner and a dog that needs lots of attention and walks, my dog is my best friend. He runs with me a lot, and I care for my dog as well as my other pets very attentive, extremely nurturing (it’s a habit), and with so much play time.
“I have a feeling Adolfo has become my pug’s new best friend. He has been diligently handling dog walks with us for a few months — great communication that shows a lot of love and care. If Dumplin is happy, mama is happy. Thanks, buddy!”
“Friendly, communicative, and trustworthy. What more can you want from a dog walker? Daisha won my timid Pomeranian over with her patience, and won me over with with her attentive updates. Will rehire!”
About: I have two crazy cats of my own, and I walk a lovely dog named Beanie multiple times a week. I have taken care of many cats, often doing in-home pet sitting. I also have experience doing in-home sittings with dogs, and I have a mission to befriend every animal I see on the street :) I am currently working very part-time, so my schedule is incredibly flexible when it comes to taking care of your pets, though I have more availability during the week than on weekends! I spend a lot of time around different pets, so I understand how bonding with them is dependent on each animal. I always give someone’s pet the opportunity to grow comfortable in my presence so they know they are safe with me! I strive to make sure everyone who entrusts me with their pets’ safety is satisfied with their care :)
“We just met Ceci and they were super adept at picking up on our dog-reactive dog's behaviors. Our dog calmed down quickly with Ceci and they were nicely loose-leash walking by the end our our meet-up! Ceci was a great listener to my ramblings and intricate strategies for working with our dog's reactivity. They asked thoughtful questions and already put into play some of the techniques that we use to keep our dog under threshold. Can't wait for Ceci and our dog to walk together again soon!”
“Enbar was amazing. I was nervous leaving my pup while on a long trip, but felt confident that he was in good hands. Great communication, photos, and took good care of my boy. I'm so grateful we found her! Thank you, Enbar!”

Kayla W.
“Kayla is a great pet caregiver who has known my boy, Rufus, and my girl, Luna, for years. Luna is an older kitty who struggles with grooming, but Kayla has made sure she was brushed well and changed her litter often whenever I was out of town. Rufus is very scared of new people, but Kayla made sure to take their time to let him warm up to them on his terms. They enjoy Kayla's company and would be an amazing choice for anyone looking for attentive care.”

East Harlem dog parents share their Rover experiences
Carlie is amazing! She is wonderfully kind and thoughtful, super responsible and I didn’t just take my doggy for walks but really but care into helping train her while they were out and also showed her real love! I am so so grateful to have had Carlie’s help to walk my doggy during a time I was injured and could not …. We can’t possibly thank her enough and highly highly recommend her! (And can’t wait to work with her in the future!)
Lane is an absolutely fantastic dog walker! He is incredibly kind, reliable, and communicates clearly and consistently. He’s also been wonderfully flexible when needed, which I really appreciate. Most importantly, my 100lb Great Pyrenees mix, who can be picky about people, already adores him after just a few walks. Lane has a natural way with dogs, and it shows! I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to take care of their pet!
Vanessa is absolutely fantastic! She’s an excellent communicator, always punctual, and has such a warm, positive energy that my giant Pyrenees bonded with her right away—which is no small feat, since he’s typically cautious around new people. It’s clear she has a natural way with animals—she’s truly one of those people all dogs love. I can’t recommend her enough if you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and trustworthy to care for your pet!
