“Marcela did an amazing job!! She was so communicative and responsive, and took great photos and videos of the walk. I can tell my dog got comfortable with her very quickly, and that she was able to read his communication and body language very quickly as well.”
“Nicole was amazing with Mylo! He can be hesitant to go on walks, but she was incredibly patient, gentle, and kind with him. She took the time to make him feel comfortable instead of rushing him, and it really showed how much she cares about the dogs she works with. I really appreciated her patience and the way she handled him. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was with someone who understood his needs. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog walker! Amazing person!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 10 years and absolutely love spending time with them. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and plenty of attention while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am home most of the day, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, playtime, feeding, bathroom breaks, and companionship, and I can be flexible with different routines and schedules. I really enjoy having animals around, so caring for pets naturally fits into my daily routine. In my home, I have two levels that allow me to comfortably accommodate pets with different needs. If a pet needs their own space or would prefer to be separated from other animals, I can provide a separate area for them. If they are comfortable around other pets and enjoy companionship, I can also allow them to spend time with my pets under supervision. I’ll always prioritize each pet’s comfort, safety, and individual routine.
“Diego was amazing with my dog, Chai! He was super punctual and brought him back right on time after exactly an hour, which I really appreciated. He also kept me updated the whole time with pictures and messages, which made me feel so much more at ease while I was at work.”
About: I’ve had cats since I was 10. I adopted my current cat Snap Pea over 3 years ago, a 5 year old dilute calico FIV+. I’ve frequently volunteered at the cat shelter/adoption center, and I’ve taken care of many friends’ cats and dogs while they were away. I’d love to care for your fur baby too! I work full time during the week, so I can do drop by visits or walks for cats/small dogs before 9am and after 5pm. I’m based in the Astoria, Queens neighborhood. I scoop the litter box 1x per day. I play and cuddle with my cat. I also always take plenty of photos for whoever I cat sit for so their owners know they’re having a fun time! I can also walk small to medium sized dogs.
About: I have taken care of my dog Yuki since she was a puppy. She has taught me how to be a responsible dog owner. I realize the importance that walking her adds to the value of her life. I am currently about to start a new full time job, however I am available for evening walks or weekend walks and will update my schedule accordingly. I currently care for my pet by keeping a consistent feeding and walking schedule and overall keeping her happy with everything she might need or want. I clean after my dog everyday and hope to do the same for potential clients.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for over 35 years. Family, friends, and neighbors have always turned to me to walk and feed their fur babies. I am a stay at home wife and mother to two adult children, so I will be available at any time for your convenience to walk and play with your fur baby. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I had an 11-year-old Pomeranian that has just passed away on June 13, 2026. I will care for your pet with the same love and attention I gave my own. During walks, I’ll prioritize safety, exercise, and making sure your dog has a fun, positive experience.
“Su’s first visit with Rolly went swimmingly! He warmed up to her instantly and even greeted her with a toy. She’s punctual and followed all of our instructions, which we so appreciated. We’re happy for her to care for Rolly again!”
“As a first time user of Rover with a reactive dog it was hard to trust someone else to take care of my dog, but Becky has been so transparent, caring, communicative and helpful throughout the whole process - Couldn't have asked for a better first experience and Aisling absolutely adores her!”
About: **Update:my husband and I serve clients from my rover page because I started dogwalking regularly in the nassau area in BK (feel free to request if in the area Ask me about my homemade dog treats! I had dogs my entire life and I became a professional dog walker full-time so this is a way I could make some extra cash. I have walked various big and small breeds of dogs. I recently started working for a doggy daycare. We played in grassy areas around the city and I have experience with dog parks/runs. I have a pup of my own named Thor who is a pom/wesley and he is like my child. Another reason why I want to do this is because seeing my pups cute little face when I leave is devastating. He is also very energetic and had anxiety so my friend and I have come up with different ways to calm him when his emotions overtake him. We bathe him, groom him, feed him, play with him and give him lots of cuddles and attention. I will gladly treat anyone's little buddy the way I treat mine. Rover is my main source of income other than baking dog treats so I am mostly free and this would help build my personal clientele I have dealt with dogs with cones, I have put dogs in and out of crates if you need. I am experienced with giving your dog a safe and loving environment to be in. I am a full time dog walker/sitter and primary owner of Alexis’ wagging tails, a dog sitting/walking service which is run by my husband and I. My schedule is from 11-3/4ish mon-fri; any other times, I will be accompanying my husband or it would be solely my service whenever I can. I feed, give water, cuddles, attention; pill dosage intake if needed. Walks, any other specific dog needs (change diapers or weewee pads. Will crate or keep dog in closed area when away from the house if needed and applicable
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with my family dogs Daisy the Shih Tzu for 14 great years, and caring for her taught me everything from daily routines to understanding her weird little quirks that make each dog unique. Since then, I’ve become the go‑to dog sitter for my friends, regularly helping with walks and overnight stays. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I’m patient, attentive, and know the importance of taking care of your dog as if it was my own. Your pet’s comfort and routine matter to me, and I’m committed to giving them the same love and attention they expect at home. I am currently working a flexible hybrid job in Tribeca and live in Astoria. I am flexible in terms of being near either location and more throughout the week. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a clean, well‑organized 1‑bedroom apartment (about 500 sq ft), which creates a calm, controlled, and quiet environment that’s perfect for dogs who thrive on consistency and attention. My apartment is a short walk from multiple parks, so your dog will have plenty of space to play. The space is fully pet‑proofed and there is plenty of space for your dog’s bed/crate.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Jackson Heights is $24
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Jackson Heights
Shirley is AMAZING! She’s so sweet and really attentive to the dogs needs and unique quirks. I’ve never used Rover or any dog walkers because I’ve been hesitant but she eased my anxiety and was communicative, timely, and reassuring. I highly recommend her and would rebook for when I’m off on my next trip! 🫶🏽
This is the 2nd time Mayleth has walked Mochi. She’s so patient and communicative with me by updating me with pictures and keeping Mochi safe even if she gets bursts of energy not knowing her strength as a big puppy herself. But I am confident she will never let Mochi out of her sight and protected from harm. Thank you!!
Stephanie did such a wonderful job taking care of my boy while I was at work. During their daily walks, she would provide updates and take several great pictures and videos. Stephanie and my Wolfie bonded so well. I could see the joy he felt when she arrived. I would recommend Stephanie highly to anyone seeking a dog walker.
Sin Ying is an absolute pleasure and I feel so happy she is caring for my pup Frank. He’s a little elderly and a bit of a pain in the butt - but she has been so patient with him and provides the best updates and pictures about his daily walks. She also loves on my kitty too so he never feels left out. She’s amazing!
Seneca is probably the best dog walker I’ve had in the 6 years I’ve been using rover. She truly treats Mango like her own and never hesitates to go the extra mile. Whether it’s taking him to the park, proactively wiping his paws and filling up his water, or taking adorable pictures, Seneca goes above and beyond. I couldn’t recommend her enough. 5 stars!!
Yanxi is so kind, caring, always punctual, and my baby boy loves her. He gets excited every time he hears her at the door, and I love having someone so reliable taking care of my fur baby. His happiness is enough for me, but it’s also just such a great help and relief to know he gets the walks he deserves when I’ve got too much going on. I highly recommend her and we are grateful to be in her continuous care.
Perfect with our pooch! We highly recommend Devon, she is very dedicated and professional, and always on time. Great walks-and-plays with our young and sometimes feisty terrier mix. Great notes and photos after each session. We had a busy month and needed mid-afternoon 30 minute sessions and everything worked out perfectly. Thank you!
