Dog Walking Financial District

About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 10 years, and caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. Over the years, I’ve also helped watch and walk many of the neighborhood dogs, which gave me experience with different breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether it’s puppies full of energy or senior dogs who need a little extra patience, I know how to adjust to each dog’s needs. I also have a passion for staying active — I love running and walking — so I can make sure your dog gets the right amount of exercise, whether that’s a long jog or a leisurely stroll. More than anything, I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’m currently a freshman at Pace. I have a very flexible schedule with many openings for walks throughout the day during the week. Please reach out if you have any questions! Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first with me. Since I won’t be hosting pets in my own home, I focus on providing reliable care in your pet’s familiar environment, where they feel most secure. I’m attentive on every walk, always keeping an eye on surroundings, using secure leashes, and making sure your pet stays safe near traffic, other dogs, and new environments. I also follow your specific routines and instructions carefully — whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, or special needs — so your pet feels comfortable and cared for at all times.

“Minako is amazing! She looks after my 4 month Cavapoo and loves her like she was her own. Minako always sends pictures and updates. I’m so grateful that I’m able to leave my puppy home and trust that she is in great hands with Minako coming to take her on walks.”

I would absolutely recommend Valeria to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and dependable to care for their pet. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again!”

About: Hello! Thank you for visiting my Rover page. I’m Melanie, an animal lover and pet sitter based in Manhattan. I owned multiple dogs growing up and miss being around animals, which is why I started pet-sitting! A little bit more about me: I currently live in FiDi area and work mostly remotely in tech. I’ve been living in NYC for over a year, and moved here from the Bay Area where I also attended college. I’m originally from LA! My experience: - I’ve owned and worked with various dog breeds (including large dogs!) and temperaments - I love taking long walks with my pet guests and live right by Battery Park - I’ve volunteered at animal shelters for several years, not only walking dogs but also taking care of cleaning and feeding (including cats!) - I’m punctual, dependable, and will always prioritize the well-being of your pet Please feel free to reach out if you need assistance with your pet! Also more than happy to meet or call to discuss your pet’s needs. I’m available most days on weekends. I’m also available Mondays and Fridays during the day. Please take a look at my calendar and see if any availability works for you! If you don’t see a time you prefer, please feel free to send me a message and we can work out another suitable time. I have walked dogs of various sizes, breeds, and temperaments through my years of owning dogs, dogsitting, and volunteering. I understand every pet owner wants to keel their furry friends safe — we can schedule time to call / talk in person regarding your preferences for your pet’s needs.

About: I’ve had a dog all my life (two labs), have take care of neighbors pets and volunteered at an animal shelter in highschool. I’m a true dog lover I am available on the weekends. I woke from home Monday and Friday which are lighter days for me with availability to dog walk or sit. I live in an apartment so I would take your dog on a walk or could watch them at your apartment as mine is too small!

“Gabriela took great care of my Olive. We did 2 walks in 1 day and she did a great job with both. He is definitely high energy and she was able to run him around enough to tire him out. I definitely recommend!”

Mel R.

“Mariele is amazing! She did a wonderful job winning our anxious dog over and dealing with her many quirks. She also sends amazingly detailed recaps that we love! Would absolutely recommend.”

“Raul is the best there is. His organization, proactive communication and warm aura give me confidence my puppy is in great hands. He is thoughtful and sharp, and considers matters related to her comfort and health before they become issues. In advance of my girl’s evening walks, he checks the forecast and communicates inclement weather that may require additional planning; that attention to detail is invaluable. 11/10!! We love him!”

Brianne W.

“Thank you!! The best”

About: As a caretaker who leads with patience and intention, I’m here to care for your pets exactly how you would. I want your pet to feel as comfortable as they would with you there. I have cared for dogs and cats my whole life - understanding the temperament and needs of every creature. Experienced with all cats and dogs (birds too, but that’s probably for another app.) I currently work part-time, so my schedule is extremely open for work! I also love to housesit, especially because it helps me know a pet better. Available weekdays most times, and weekend mornings. I currently have no pets in my apartment space. However, I am more focused on caring for pets at clients’ homes. I’m extremely respectful of spaces and you can trust me with your abode.

“Logan was so fantastic walking my senior boy!! I have serious trust issues when it comes to my baby, and Logan was so wonderful in making us both feel at ease! She is so conscientious and sent wonderful follow ups and pictures so I could relax and know that my Dexter was in great hands! Thank you Logan!!”
