“Stephanie has been wonderful to work with and we cannot recommend her highly enough. Our pupper enjoys every walk she takes with her. We can really tell that Stephanie cares about our dog and enjoys what she does. When we’ve had issues that we needed to cancel at the last minute, Stephanie was responsive and more than flexible in rescheduling and helping us. As long as Stephanie continues to work on rover, we will continue to do our best to make every accommodation needed to book her every time we need someone.”


About: Grew around German Sheppards and Chow Chows so super comfortable around larger dogs. I don’t believe all of the negative stereotypes that follow certain breeds. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for my friends and families for many years. I work from home, which means I have the ability to provide your animal with as many pets/ cuddles and walks they can stand 🙌🏼 When caring for someone’s pet I make sure to follow every request, each animal is different so I depend upon the owners direction for how to make them comfortable and happy.

“Taylor was fantastic! We needed to reschedule and she was on top of it and super responsive. She sent me pictures and kept me updated on her bowel movements and behavior etc. It was my first time using Rover for a dog walk and she exceeded my expectations! (Esp since my husband I have trust issues with our fur pup 😅) Highly recommend Taylor!”


“Jenn was great! It was last minute and she was very accommodating! Brea loved her! She is super sweet! Texted me after the walk to let me know all went well! Will definitely use again! Thank you!!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and many other exotics since 2014. My yellow Labrador Riley was unfortunately lost to cancer a year ago, so there are no dogs in my house currently. But, that sorrow has just made me more active in the pet industry. I am a full-time vet assistant in training to be a Licensed Veterinary Technician. I am skilled in puppy to senior pet care, large or small. I have been learning skills of dog obedience since I graduated with a Bachelors in Biology in 2024 and my last job of 4 years working at a Petco store. Reactivity happens to be a big issue with dogs whether it’s due to dog-on-dog reactivity, people, or large objects like cars, I specialize in weeding out these traits for a better walking and socialization experience with your pup! I would be ecstatic to serve you and your canine’s needs to the fullest of my abilities while having a hell of a good time! 🐾 I’m currently working full-time as a vet assistant and enrolled in an online Veterinary Technician program but that does not stop me from wanting to assist you in your canine’s needs. Whether is something simple like dog walking or reactivity dog training, I will squeeze you into my flexible schedule! I am very knowledgeable on dog behavior and can answer many of your questions while providing you and your pup with a fun and enjoyable experience. I have a large fenced in backyard with plenty of grass for an enjoyable outdoor play-time experience. My yellow labrador of 10 years unfortunately passed away a year ago so my house does not have any dogs on the premises anymore incase of dog reactivity. I have no issue providing a crate for your pup but I currently cannot offer overnight boarding, only full-day dog sitting. Full-day dog watching will consist of fun car rides, walks, and training if requested. Dog walking can be done morning or night, depending on scheduling.

About: I am an energetic and responsible doggy sitter. I've grown up having multiple dogs in my household and often foster rescue doggies and cats until a forever home is found. I do not only genuinely enjoy playing and providing walks in the parks for dogs, but I am very knowledgeable about breeds and overall dog needs. I have a very hands-on style, I sit and play and run around with the animals I care for as human interaction and play time are super important. You can trust me to provide feedings on time and go above and beyond during walks to make sure your pup is exercised and content. I only walk/sit for one dog at a time. I am an open book so please ask away! With a flexible schedule that includes working from home three days a week and weekends spent exploring local parks and trails, I’m able to provide consistent, attentive care to the pets I look after. Whether it’s daytime doggy care, solo walks, or weekend adventures, I make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. My own dog and cat keep me on a steady routine, and I love folding client care seamlessly into my active, pet-focused days.

About: As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of finding someone you can trust with your furry family members. I have helped my in-laws take care of their two Australian Shepherds and now take care of my own who happens to be their child. I raised my dog from birth until now and have invested a lot of time into learning how to train her and how to make sure all her needs are met. I promise to give that same level of detailed care to your precious furry family members. I work 3-4 days a week and my off-days vary - they could be Monday, Wednesday, or Thursday. I am available most weekends with flexible hours. I have a fenced in yard to keep your pet safe. I also have a crate and a play pen, depending on their size. My dog Almond is friendly with others dogs and loves to play.

About: Hi there! I’m Sofía, a 22-year-old college senior with over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and breeds.

My passion for wellness and compassion extends beyond people—animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up with dogs, worked at kennels, and understand just how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family member. What sets me apart?

I also enjoy helping with puppy routines—house training, leash training, and socialization. Whether your pup needs active playtime, gentle companionship, or just someone who “gets it,” I’ve got you covered. I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care. When I’m with your pet, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I’m currently available all summer for pet sitting, including weekdays and weekends! Whether you need daily visits, overnight care, or extended stays, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate your pet’s needs. I have a gated backyard with space to run and have two friendly beagles that love to play. If it’s nice out I like to take them on walks and to the park which they can all play

About: I used to watch my friends dog when they were away. I used to stay at their home and not only walk them but play fetch with them in the yard and also in the pool.

Also I would walk the dog, play fetch in the yard and pool and talk to neighbors I was friendly with while walking the dog.

When they came back, he was happy, tired, and clearly had a great time! I could tell she really cared and treated him like her own. Highly recommend—she’s a total gem!”


About: Hi, I’m Scarlett—and I believe every furry soul deserves love, respect, and personalized care that meets their unique needs. With over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for both my own pets and those of others, plus a background in veterinary hospital support, I bring a blend of deep compassion and professional-level service to every walk, visit, and cuddle session. I’ve also spent many years as a nanny—so nurturing is second nature to me. Whether your pet is young, senior, or has special needs, I tailor each visit to their comfort and routine. I don’t just care for animals—I connect with them, and with you, the people who love them. 💼 What Sets Me Apart: - Background in veterinary care = attention to health & safety - Decades of pet parenting & client care experience - Empathetic approach that adapts to your pet’s unique personality - Reliable, flexible, and communicative—your peace of mind is my priority 🗓️ My Availability: - Wednesday–Saturday: Flexible scheduling throughout the day - Sunday–Tuesday: Available with at least one week's notice - Urgent care or late-night walks (after 9:30 PM): Same-day requests welcome Your pet will be cared for as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and a whole lot of heart.

Which consists of Sunday through Tuesday. Wednesday through Saturday my availability is open. I am open to same-day requests. Should you really be in the need of help on a Sunday Monday or Tuesday I can try and I'm willing to but I would need at least 4 to 5 days events notice. I'm very flexible and open to working with you however I can. Your fur-babie(s) and your home will be treated with respect.

A golden retriever, maltese, white lab and a shih tzu. I'm currently working full time, but I for the most part make my own schedule. I'm free whenever is needed and I can be called upon short notice. I have a fenced yard at my house and take my dogs on walks daily, about 5-6 times a day! I will do my best to make your dog feel calm and treat he/she as my own

Frances M.
“It is with genuine pleasure that I write this letter to support Fances Massa in reference to animal care. I have known Frances all her life, having lived next door to her family since she was born. I have watched her grow and mature into a responsible, kind-hearted and caring person, especially when it comes to pets and animals. She has always had a love of animals and has cared for various pets throughout her life. Frances has had several jobs that involve animal care, including working at Petco and at the Bronx Zoo. On a personal note, Frances has been a friendly and helpful neighbor. She is our stand in cat sitter for our two cats whenever we are unable to get home to feed and care for them, or when we are away, sometimes more than one week at a time. We have cats with very different personalities and eating habits: one that is friendly, confident and will eat anything put in front of him, and the other who is very skittish and often hides even from her own family. Feeding them is an ordeal, having to keep one in a closed room while trying to entice the other to come out an eat. Frances is patient and caring and often cajoles our fearful cat to come out and play and eat. Frances is an awesome human being, who provides safe and loving care for our pets. I am confident that Frances’s animal care services will be appreciated by anyone who employs her services.”

“George has watched our dog Cinnamon several times through the years. Even though Cinnamon is always not a big fan of people, he fell absolutely in love with George.
