“Nicole is terrific! She walked my pup Sadie twice a day for several days and did a great job. She was in close contact about how Sadie was doing and sent photos. Other than one afternoon when she needed to cancel, Nicole arrived promptly and walked Sadie for a full hour each time as scheduled. Sadie absolutely loved her!”
About: I’ve been a dog walker for 2+ years, I have experience working at a dog daycare, dog walking, dog sitting, cat sitting, and drop in feeding for both. I am patient, reliable and punctual. I pay attention, take animals safety seriously and will take very good care of your pets. Rain or shine, snow or summer heat won’t stop me from showing up 😁 I am willing to do meet and greets!

I am available weekdays and weekends, I have lots of free time and I would like to use that to work as much as I can. I understand that each cat/dog has their own needs and some require special attention and/or care, such as diaper changes for disabled dogs or pets that take certain medications, I am experienced with these and I can do it. I can and will do whatever the pet needs, I’ll be present and take care of them.

About: I have over 20 years of pet care experience caring for both dogs (young and old) and cats. Treating each as one of my very own <3 I’m currently a graduate student in physical therapy school, mainly available wednesdays and fri-sun afternoons and evenings. Afternoons and evenings are more likely during the week because of my classes in the morning. Doggos get a safe, clean space with daily walks, playtime, and lots of attention so they feel comfortable enough to relax and always be themselves in their home away from home.
About: I started working with pets at the start of the pandemic, when my mom surprised the household with an energetic and anxious goldendoodle. He was 50 pounds and 5 feet long, and insisted on peeing in every corner of the house. I dedicated myself to training him, and he now serves as a service animal for mental health disorders. In the last six years, I have worked with dogs of all breeds and sizes, rabbits, birds, and cats. I can't wait to get to know your fur-baby :) I am available everyday between the hours of 9:00am - 3:00pm, but am able to make other arrangements if needed. Please feel free to contact me if amended hours are needed! My services include providing multiple daily walks, food, potty breaks, and playtime with your pet (dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds) in your home. I am also able to train pets at all levels of obedience to perform a series of tricks ranging from sit to retrieving medications.
“Tiffany is amazing! Definitely will be my primary from now on. My dog has terrible anxiety around other dogs and she took on that challenge with no issues. She goes far and beyond to ensure your pet receives the best care possible. Your pet will be in good hands when choosing Tiffany!”
“Derricker is amazing. Long walks and even grooming at times. So appreciative of Derricker and the extras as I recover from a fractured ankle. She is amazing and Beau waits by the door for her arrival at times.”
About: Most of my pet care experience is actually on my resume I've been working pet related jobs my whole life and so this is my first time actually doing it as a service on my own. I'm looking forward to letting my experience shine here on Rover to show exactly what sets me apart from the rest. I have been living in a zoo my whole life so essentially throwing in a few more pets really wouldn't be an issue to me. I have a set schedule for my pets to be fed routinely however if I am advised upon providing food to your pet at a specific time I'll just follow your rules because I'm pretty sure that your pet is already accustomed to the feeding schedule that you may have them on.
“Fallon was amazing! I needed last minute walks bc my dog Walker canceled. She came and was excellent in helping me to feed and take him out for a morning and afternoon walk. Highly Rex recommend!”
About: My name is Jacob and I love dogs! I’ve been walking them and training them since I was seven-years-old. I have experience with dogs both big and small as well as breeds such as pit-bulls, mastiffs, and labradors. I’m comfortable with any type of dog. As for my previous experience, I used to walk dogs in my neighborhood in New York City where I grew up. I also love cats! I have a nice fluff-ball named Deebo. I love the little guys! I have references and will provide them upon request. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I work night shifts starting at 10:30pm (starting on May 18th) but I’ll be available during the day and evening. Mornings are best, but I’m flexible. I will treat your home with the utmost respect and will cherish your pet. I take pride in my work and will ensure that it will seem like I was never there.
Fordham dog parents share their Rover experiences
This was my second time booking with Hector, and once again he did an excellent job caring for my dog. He is reliable, communicative, and always attentive to my dog’s needs. I appreciate how respectful and professional he is when coming into my home, which makes the entire experience stress-free. It’s reassuring to know my dog is in good hands, and I will definitely continue rebooking with him in the future.
Marin is such an incredible dog walker for my senior potties. She was consistently reliable, communicative, and clearly cared deeply about my dog’s well-being. Marin was attentive to Patrick’s needs, accommodating, and always made me feel at ease knowing he was in good hands. I am truly appreciated her professionalism, kindness, and the genuine care she showed throughout our time working together. Again, I’m grateful for all of her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker 💚
Neil is incredibly consistent and communicative. Each week Neil checks in to make sure we are on the same schedule and often given my schedule I am not as consistent however Neil makes it work and it’s always there to walk Zephyr. Neil is very kind and patient with Zephyr. His prices are very reasonable as well.
Emmanuel has been walking my dog Phoenix for over a year daily and he is amazing. She can be a very anxious and dog reactive Shepherd but he handles her very well and makes her feel safe. She loves him and gets so excited everytime she sees him. Emmanuel is very communicative with any changes in his schedule or if he is running late to a walk and I appreciate that so much. He's become family!
Victor is great with Zuse! He is reliable, attentive, and clearly has a wonderful way with dogs. Zuse always seems happy and well-cared for after their time together. If you are looking for a walker who is professional and genuinely cares about your pup, I highly recommend Victor!
Jennifer is amazing! She has such a warm presence that makes you and your fur baby feel at ease. Jennifer is great with communication and always prompt with walks. She goes out of her way to make sure everyone is comfortable. We are so happy to have trusted Jennifer with our baby and cannot wait to work with her again.
