About: I’m super patient and love giving all of the snuggles and cuddles to dogs! I will be what you need while you’re living your best life on vacation I work full time but can do check ins in the morning, on lunch & at night. I am off on weekends so can go during the weekend any time as well. I’m not currently offering boarding services. I’m only doing dog walking and in home check ins. So so so so so so so so sorry!
About: I've been taking care of animals a vast majority of my life. From fish and birds to dogs and cats. I have experience caring for animals in all stages of life. I also have prior experience working with all types of dogs, as I used to work at a professional daycare and boarding business as a room attendant. There I was a keyholder, prepped dog food and meds, as well as picked up after any messes without any difficulty. I live with two dogs myself, and watch them for my roommate when he goes out of town. I do have cats that don't mind dogs too much. I have a fenced in back yard and a dog door that goes out to the back as well. I love working with my own cats, as well as the fur babies of others to better understand dog, cat, and general animal behaviors. I love animals, so getting to work with them fuels said love. I treat all animals as if they’re mine. I believe in positive reinforcement training, as well as redirecting misbehavior to something more entertaining for both me and the pet.
About: I’ve had and taken care of dogs since I was about 13. They bring me such great joy and are always treated as a part of our family. My schedule is pretty flexible. If there are any special requests/circumstances please let me know prior to the visit and I will do my best to accommodate them. I have a fenced in yard with a lot of space for your baby to run around. I also have two fur babies of my own that can keep them occupied.
About: Hi there! I'm Reagan, your pet's new best friend! 🐾 As a lifelong animal lover with 10+ years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and everything in between, I’m here to make sure your furry family member is happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just a cuddle buddy, I tailor my care to meet each pet’s unique needs and personality. Reliable, responsive, and genuinely passionate about animals — I treat every pet like they’re my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged friend! As a military spouse, I’m looking for a fun and meaningful way to fill my time while providing loving care to pets in my community. I’m available Monday through Friday and have a flexible schedule that allows me to offer reliable walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the day. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, and I would love the opportunity to give them the attention, companionship, and love they deserve while you’re away! Unfortunately I am unable to do pet care in my own home at the moment due to apartment complex having pet policies to ensure residents and their pets a safe home.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was young. Neighbors, friends, and family rely on me to walk, feed, play with, and bathe their pets. I’m patient, gentle, and confident with animals of all sizes, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. I am currently working part-time, and only work maybe three days out of the week for as most as 6 hours. With that being said I am pretty available all throughout the week for any pet sitting needs! I care for pets with gentleness and I try to follow how the owner would typically care for their pet. Making sure all of the pets and owners needs are both met.
About: I have taken care of multiple animals. I have experience in providing medication as well as dog walking. I’m excited to have the opportunity to love on your fur baby while you are away. I work, but my schedule is flexible enough to fit in regular feedings, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I can adjust visits around work hours, and I always make sure your pet stays on their routine with plenty of attention, clean litter, and love built in. I follow each pet’s routine closely meals on time, fresh water, clean litter boxes, walks or play as needed, and plenty of attention based on their comfort level. I’m patient with shy animals, gentle with seniors, and keep a calm, safe environment for everyone. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure pets feel secure, relaxed, and cared for the same way you would.
About: I’ve been a professional dog trainer for the last 5 years. I spent my childhood training horses and showing horses and dogs. I’m very comfortable with any breed and size dog! I work from home and can make my own schedule which allows me to be very flexible with my availability to care for your pets! I have a fenced yard and ruffland crates to keep your dogs safe! I have 2 very friendly female German shepherds for you pup to play with!
“Rebecca was amazing! My dogs took right to her. She was very savvy and knowledgeable and able to handle my boys so well. I am so thankful that in a time I needed to be gone, I didn't have to worry about my dogs.”
“Excellent dog caregiver! My dog is so comfortable with Ashley, that when I tell him, “Ashley is on her way!” he immediately runs to the window to watch for her! She is kind, easy to work with, and very trustworthy. She has taken great care of my dog more than once and am grateful for her patience and great care she always provides. I am very comfortable and lucky to be able to depend on her caring for my dog. Thank you,Ms Ashley!”
“Nicole was amazing! I contacted her last minute to walk my pup and she was completely willing to help me out. Copper seemed happy when we arrived home later. I would definitely book her again :)”
About: I've taken care of a variety of animals for family and friends. Watched dogs, rabbits, fish, and a guinea pig for my aunt and cousins multiple times. Recently helped my friend while she and her family were out of town by looking after ducks, chickens, a pig, pigeons, horses, and let her dogs out. I also hand fed her cat to make sure he got all of his medicine that was mixed in it. I have a full time job but am lucky to have a flexible schedule and can adjust my hours to be available to take good care of your pet(s). All dogs that I've cared for were let out in a fenced in yard to relieve themselves but I am more that willing to walk any dog that needs more excerise or doesn't have a yard. I can crate your dogs if needed while I'm at work or taking care of my cats and let them back out immediately upon return.
About: i’ve been around animals my entire life i have 5 dogs and two cats and i am also in vet school. i worked at several boarding facilities and love it i have a lot of free time since i’m doing class online so i can spend the whole day with any animal! i also get my dogs out of the house and take them to the park i have two dogs at home and a fenced yard for my animals my animals are always around other dogs they love other animals and are very hyper sometimes
About: I have had dogs since 2013. I had three, I currently have two. One of them had epilepsy, this gave me experience with seizures and administering medicine. I also worked at a doggy day care for 1 year, there I cared for large groups of dogs. We fed them, changed out water 4-5 times a day, picked up after them and played with them. I'm knowledgeable about dog behavior and how to avoid situations that would be harmful. I know to test the pavement heat before a walk on hot days. If you need doggy day care please note that it will only be your pet(s) at your residence because mine is full. I'm currently seeking steady employment but am wanting to make this my steady job. I'm available during the week from six am to 5 pm I'm currently unable to pet sit in my home. I'm more than happy to pet sit in the dogs/cats home that makes the pets more comfortable as well since it's not a strange house with strange smells. I'm more than happy to drop in or stay for awhile. I enjoy taking walks and it's always good to have a friend (your pet) with me.
“Liliana is so great with my Husky! She is super flexible with my busy schedule which I really appreciate. She is dependable and treats him with care! He loves seeing her! She sends lots of pics and takes him on great walks.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 10 years old and have always considered animals part of the family. I currently have two 8-year-old cats, and until recently I also had two dogs, including a 12-year-old German Shepherd/Malamute mix who sadly passed away from heart failure this year and a Pit Bull who passed away the year before. Caring for pets throughout their different stages of life has taught me how important patience, attention, and love are. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, giving pets attention and companionship, and keeping their normal routines while their families are away. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, so I have a flexible schedule and am home most of the day. My only regular commitments are school drop-off and pickup. This allows me plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I live in a quiet apartment community with a small dog park that I can use for appropriate dogs. I have two friendly 8-year-old cats who are comfortable around people and pets. I also have a toddler who loves animals and a 5-year-old who is more timid around very energetic dogs, so I’m especially mindful of each pet’s temperament and comfort level. I will only accept pets that are a good fit for my home and family, and I always prioritize safety, supervision, and following your pet’s normal routine
“My dog Kobe is a high energy breed who needs his speed walks everyday. When I am sick or away, I needed to find someone who can give him the high energy walks he needs and I found that perfect person in Darya! I have used her three times already and already booked her for three more. Kobe comes home happy, excited and tired all in one. Darya has exceeded my expectations!”

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Harlem. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
