“I have had the pleasure of Mishel walking my 60 lb boy now more than several times. She is always punctual and responsive to my messages. Marx has no complaints and neither do I.”

“Horace is fantastic! My dog warmed to himat once. He is very prompt, kept me informed and was so graciously flexible when I needed to change times at the last minute. He has a wonderful caring way with dogs and people! And I highly recommend him Susan”

“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!”

“Maria is so awesome. She's amazing with my senior dog. He isn't the easiest to care for. He can't get up by himself and requires a harness. He's big and he's in pain but he is always happy to see her. We're lucky to know her ♥️”

“I reached out to Kristian at the last moment because my other dog walker had to cancel. He was super accommodating and responded quickly my pup, Maeve had a blast and clearly got a lot of energy out because now she is a super sleepy and was so excited to go. Will definitely be asking Kristian again to walk Maeve ?”

About: Caring, reliable sitter for dogs, cats, and rabbits. I respect routines, provide consistent updates, and prioritize patience, comfort, and making every pet feel safe and loved. At the moment, I’m fully available for all your pet’s needs. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m up early—my cats usually wake me around 5–6 a.m. for breakfast—so I can easily accommodate early morning feedings. Living by Central Park means doggies get plenty of fresh air and exercise with nice walks in the park. Throughout the day, I make sure pets get playtime, attention, and any other care they need, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s routine and preferences. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for every pet I care for. When I’m in your home, I follow your routines closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions—so pets feel secure and at ease. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home, so I’m always respectful of your space, belongings, and privacy. During walks, I keep dogs on leash, pay attention to their surroundings, and adjust the pace to their comfort and energy level. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing consistent care, attention, and affection to help them feel happy and safe.
About: I am a dedicated pet care provider that is comfortable with any animal shape or size. I am very passionate about my job and making sure the pet Im taking care of has all of its needs, and ofcourse some slight spoilage! I started out in dog daycares and moved on to do all kinds of animal care work. I have experience with senior dogs and puppies as young at 2 months old! I am educating myself to become a dog trainer and can help provide tips when it comes to building human-canine relationships. I can also do specials needs such as insulin shots. I am also in the process of becoming a certified Animal Handler in New York State, so I can further my education in animal care. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry baby! I currently work part time once a week at a Grooming academy. So i will have plenty of time during the week to spend time with your pet! I also live with animals so I am constantly spending my time walking feeding and caring for them. I walk the dogs at least 4 times a day. Morning, mid day, evening, and late night relief. Also depending on the weather a trip to the dog park. I live in a spacious apartment with 3 cats and two dogs. I have done my best to provide a sanctuary here for my animals and any visitsors who comes across us. I have one room dedicated to the animal with cat trees and soft spaces. Water fountains (for dogs and cats) and beds for lounging. I have gates for separation during feeding times and a nice big couch everyone is welcome to lounge on!
About: I’ve been a pet parent for over 6 years (to my Yorkie and a recently adopted cat), so I know how important it is to take care of these beautiful creatures. Besides my own, I’ve taken care for family dogs (like a Husky) and I very occasionally pet-sit for friends' dogs (Maltese/Shih Tzu mixes) and kittens. I’m known for being timely, organized, and really patient with pets that might be a little shy or slow to trust I have a really flexible schedule right now. I'm fully open on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays. I’m also free Monday afternoons and some Saturdays. I’m big on following instructions. If your cat is shy and needs space, or your dog needs a specific walking route, I’ll stick to the plan. I’m an NYC local, so I’m hyper-aware of cars and street safety. I treat your home and pets with the same respect I’d want for my own
“Tom was extremely caring and sent numerous of updates while being super respectful that I was on vacation. Thank you so much Tom. I know Kobe misses you and will definitely be seeing you soon. Your geniune love for dogs is incredible. Thanks for taking him as your own. THANK YOU TOM”

About: My family love animals all my life I always have dogs, cats around me. Since I was 7 years old I was taking care of my pets. Friends and family always asked me to take care of their pets, to walk them, to play with them to bath them. I love pets, they are part of my life. I am currently working but there will be always someone in my house if I have to go work and my family love pets like I do. They will be in a loving and caring family. I live in an apartment (4 bedrooms) and I have 2 friendly dogs Browny a yorkey (15 years old) and Lucky a 14 years old shih tzu. My apartment is located just in front of Central Park, wonderful place for a nice and long walk with the dogs.

About: I’ve been around all kinds of pets since I was 8 years old (dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, etc.) Over the years many friends and family members have had full trust in my abilities to take care of, feed, walk, or check on their pets. Though I don’t have much formal/professional experience on Rover, I’m hopeful for new future clients and furry friends ! :) I am currently a full-time math teacher so my availability is the most free on weekends (all day) or all weekdays usually after 3pm! In the summer I have flexible availability everyday. I make sure pets stay comfortable by keeping them on their normal routine with feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I always try to create a calm, safe environment and respect each pet’s personality and needs. I also will keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.
About: I am a reliable, loving professional with years of animal-care experience. My work in a kennel has made me especially confident in my abilities to cater to different needs, (cats/dogs, temperaments, quirks), multi-task, and stay on my feet. I raised both my dogs from puppyhood, and have helped my older dog, Grace, adjust to being unable to use one of her legs. Through this I have learned how to modify walks by taking lots of rests (or using her wagon!) as well as bandage her legs and put them in a brace. I bring the utmost care, passion, and fun to pets that I’d want my own to have! I am available sporadically throughout the day, 7 days a week! Any time from early morning and as late into the evening needed. I am taking ongoing clients at this time, also! I am very gentle and understanding of different needs. My mastiff loves to play rough, but my sharpei loves the sweet side of people, so I know how to cater to different needs!

“Highly recommend Fiona! I have an extremely long work day one day a week and she really helped me out in a pinch. Took time to come before the walk to meet my dog and have me show her where everything was to walk him, which I very much appreciated. Punctual and very kind. Hope to have her again in the future!”

“Such a delight to work with. She’s an effective and quick communicator. Super accommodating to your needs and needs of your pet. Alicia was flexible and made both of our schedules work. My dog, Fiona, took a liking to her immediately. Fiona could sense that Alicia is a good person and someone she can trust. Alicia was gentle with Fiona, so I could easily feel safe with her in Alicia’s care. I am currently injured with limited mobility, so Aleicia was also attentive to my needs and helped me out in the best way she could. I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart because I have been so worried about providing Fiona with a regular walk schedule and proper exercise and she took a lot of weight off my shoulders. THANK YOU SO MUCH, Alicia!!! She went above and beyond for myself and my fur baby to provide an incredible and easy experience. She will be the only reason that I will continue to use Rover in the future.”

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life and now have my own boy, Larry. I’m new to rover after using rover for my own pup but I am very comfortable walking all kinds of dogs whether they are friendly or ver nervous. I also have some expertise giving medications to dogs as well! I currently work Monday-Friday 9-5 so I would be available weekdays after 6pm. I have random wfh days that I would also be able to leave for a bit to walk your dog! On weekends I am generally available depending on my schedule! I am not able to take dogs in my house however, in someone else’s house, I will abide by any and all rules to keep your space clean and respected!

Kate was wonderful with Brinkley! He is a very shy boy and she did an excellent job at getting him to interact with her. While he was reluctant to leave (as always), it was an easier exit than we've seen with any other walker so far. She asked great questions and is a great communicator and Brinkley came back happy and tired -- booking a recurring weekly session right now!

Victor was excellent — punctual, professional, and genuinely great with our dog. He kept us posted with timely updates and photos, followed all care instructions, and went above and beyond to make sure Parker was happy and safe. Highly recommend him to anyone needing reliable, caring dog-walking service.
