About: I have experience taking care of my own dog as well as others’ dogs. I found a scrappy mini schnauzer named Mickey at the shelter in 2018 and fell in love immediately. I brought him home that day and was his primary caretaker for the next 7 years through his difficult battle with cancer. Since losing him, I’ve been volunteering at the shelter and dog-sitting others’ dogs. I can provide attentive care based on you and your dog’s needs, including special needs and senior dogs. I’d love to meet you and your dog and see how I can help! Im currently a student, so I have a lot of free time. I am free to walk your dogs pretty much anytime that works for you! My priority is keeping your dog safe and your home secure through every visit. I am extremely careful during entries and exits to ensure your pet stays safely inside, and I always double-check that all doors are locked when I leave. During walks, I stay highly alert to our surroundings, including traffic and other animals, while maintaining a secure grip on the leash at all times. You can expect a detailed update and photos after every walk so you have total peace of mind.

About: Full-time dog walker and devoted animal lover offering the best of my humanity to the service of our dearest friends the pets. I capture priceless daily updates and insights of my services and input (videos of every walk and portraits of every pet) and I send them to you after each walk. I work full-time as an animal caregiver with deep intention and purpose giving my all for the cause. I will get anywhere I am needed, anytime; scheduling ahead is most ideal to organize other walks around the city, but I can also do last minute things if I am allowed a 90 minutes window to make it in case I am in a different area. It is well known that my care for animals transcends feeding them and giving them water; I make sure that every walk is an opportunity to build and/or maintain positive behavioral patterns while addressing any “undesirable” patterns that could be exhibited with patience, understanding and the right amount of love… at the end of the day, it gives me unmeasurable pleasure to see animals safe, content and relaxed.

Jasper was great with my 6 month puppy Jelly! He came once for a quick meet and greet so we could make sure our shy pup was good with him. Jelly is usually very shy and fearful of new people, but warmed up to Jasper immediately. Jasper brought Jelly out a week later and everything went as smoothly as possible. I’ll be definitely asking for his help again!

About: Over my few years I’ve taken care of many types of dogs, whether that be big, small, active or lazy. I’m particularly very suited to handle big high energy dogs as I have mainly taken care of those types of dogs. I have also in some cases provided care for dogs with medical needs such as providing medication for the dog. I love to be able to take dogs out and have fun or just sit and relax if needed. I’m great at communicating with pet parents and providing a safe and fun experience for everyone’s dog! I am currently a college student so my schedule depends on. The days I do not have classes and the days I get out of class early. But I am mostly pretty free and have multiple days where I am open for the whole day to take care of your pets! Although I do not provide care in watching pets at my own home, I am able to do check-in and I ensure that the pet is fed as well as everything seems to be in order within the client’s home. As well as making sure the pet is comfortable and seems to be its normal self I also provide excellent communication if there seems to be something off and will ensure the safety of the pet is taken care of!

About: I have been trusted to care for dogs every since I was little! From Rottweilers to shih-tzus, high energy to low. I cared for them since they were pups until old age. This is decades of family experience and love for these little angels on earth :) Im currently working a job thats super flexible with scheduling so I can fit your needs pretty well! I can most likely do same day scheduling during this summer as well! I want your pets safety and comfort to be my top priority. I provide care directly in your home or neighborhood allowing your pet to stay stress free in a familiar environment. I strictly follow rules needed for each dogs needs and always on the leash during walks. You can expect regular communication, GPS-tracked walks, and daily photo updates so you will always know that your doggo is safe and secure! I'm Christian and I do believe God gave them to us for a reason!

Sali was amazing with the dogs! She was a great communicator and sent me lots of pictures of my happy pups! She asked great questions at the meet and greet and I came home to happy pups. Even with the hot weather she made sure to take care of the pups paws by walking on grass. One of my dogs is geriatric and she based the walk on her stamina which was really nice. I cannot recommend her enough!

About: Hi there <3 I am a Parsons grad who filled up a lot of my free time during my college years in the city walking & taking care of NYC’s cutest pups. 4 years post grad, I work a full time corporate fashion job that recently moved remote, and I’m looking to fill my love for pets as I adopted & became a cat mommy to my cutie kitty Moo Moo four years ago & would love a pup, but can’t right now! I am a huge pet lover so I will definitely take care of your fur-legged pets like they're my own! I work 9:30-5 & recently moved completely remote so can work from your home to keep your pets company but am also free before or after those hours to take care of your pets! Please feel free to message me with any questions about my availability. As mentioned in my past reviews, I always provide multiple photos throughout the visit or walk to make sure that owners are well aware of what is going on while also receiving pics of their pets so they don't miss them too much!

Dog Walking FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Little Italy.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:

  • Start and stop times
  • A map of their walk with total distance
  • Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
  • Cute photos and a personalized note

Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog walker through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates. The Rover team is available 24/7, and your dog walker has access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals. In the rare event of any issues during a booking, rest easy knowing your dog is covered by the Rover Guarantee reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care.
