With over 15 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, personalities, and needs, I’ve done it all: administering medications, eye drops, and special diets; fostering animals; and even rescuing strays off the streets in Puerto Rico. From playful puppies and shy cats to bunnies, turtles, and chickens, I’ve cared for them all. But beyond my skills, I bring a lot of heart, energy, and humor to pet sitting. Whether it’s a belly rub session, an extra-long sniffing walk, or a funny photoshoot to capture your pet’s personality, I’m here to make sure your fur baby feels loved, happy, safe, and completely at ease. Let’s make their time with me as fun and stress-free as possible! As a student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize your fur baby’s care!

From potty breaks to playtime, belly rubs to head scratches, I’ve got it all covered. I also respect your home as if it were my own. If there are any accidents, I’m happy to clean them up (with your permission, of course!). You’ll return to a tidy space and a happy, relaxed pet ready to greet you.

“Amanda is such a great dog walker! Not only is she dependable, but she is kind and patient. My dog was skeptical and did not want to walk with Amanda at first. Instead of giving up, Amanda took the time to play and have my dog get comfortable with her. Now my dog gets super excited any time Amanda is here for their walk. She’s really great and such a sweet person!”

“Joshua is an excellent dog walker. He was perfect for our Henny and she fell in love with him immediately. We can’t thank you enough for taking good care of her while we were away on vaca. I’ll definitely be booking again soon!”


About: I used to take care of my mom’s dog while I lived with her, so I’m very comfortable with daily routines and giving pets the attention they need. Every morning, I’d take him to the park for playtime and a 30-minute walk, and I always made sure he was fed on time. He was scared of the groomer, so I learned how to brush and bathe him at home to keep him clean and comfortable. That experience taught me how to be patient and gentle, especially with pets that are a little nervous. I treat every pet like they’re my own and really try to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m doing Rover full time right now, so pet care is a big part of my everyday life. My schedule is built around the pets I’m caring for—whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or boarding. I plan my day to make sure they get enough attention, playtime, and consistency. Since this is my main focus, I have the flexibility to give each pet the time and care they need. When I do dog walks or drop-in visits, safety and trust are my top priorities. I always make sure pets are secure on their leash and check that harnesses or collars fit properly before we head out. I stick to safe walking routes and keep a close eye on their behavior and surroundings. During drop-in visits, I follow the owner’s instructions carefully—whether it’s feeding, playtime, medication, or just keeping them company. I always make sure doors are locked, everything is cleaned up, and the pet is comfortable before I leave. I also send regular updates so pet parents know their pets are happy and in good hands.

“Ari has been great with my pup. During the meet and greet, he asked great questions and played with Nala which made me feel more comfortable. I will definitely continue to use his services and Nala seems to like him too!”

When caring for pets in a client’s home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities.

I create a calm, pet-friendly environment free of hazards, and I always follow the owner’s instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, or special quirks. I build trust through patience, gentle care, and consistent attention, so your pet feels happy and at ease while you’re away.

I am available from Sunday- Wednesday 9am- 2pm every other week; and Sunday-Wednesday 9am-8pm. I work at an animal emergency hospital so I will be out of the city outside of these times. Depending on if I am able to take the pet with me to work at the emergency hospital which they allow I can provide the proper care when it comes to at home sitting and walkings. I am very skilled at walking hyperactive dogs. I do not under any circumstances allow dogs to be off leash, Only if it is in a fenced reserved area. This is for many reasons mainly the dogs safety and others. On hot days I collapsible water bowls, and bags to pick up after them. I do not allow interactions with other unknown animals due to contracted diseases, illnesses or fleas (No kennel cough on my watch!!), or unknown reactions of other dogs. When it comes to house sitting or visits, I make sure the parent provides a list of (contact information, preferred food, possible health conditions, medications needed to be administered, toys they like, commands, emergency primary veterinarian contact, placed they don’t like to be petted, etc). I like to have daily check ups or however many times the parent wants to check up on them or updates. I am able to provide Zoom calls or FaceTime calls with the animal if needed. As for daily physical activity, if there is a specific reserved area or park where there aren’t many dogs and your animal is well trained, we may go play at the park or out for a run for a short time. The safety and happiness of your furry loved one is my first priority when in my care!

About: I love dogs and have had them my whole life. My dog Peanut, who’s in my profile picture with me, is my pride and joy, and I plan on taking care of him when I have my own home. My parents are out of town for work quite often, so I have cared for him on my own for extended periods of time, and I love spending time with him. I helped crate train him when he was younger as well, on top of other skills. I would love to help take care of others’ pets, and get to know everyone’s amazing animals! I’m a full time college student, and go to school on the Upper East Side in Manhattan, so I will definitely have weekday availability to anyone in the city who needs pet care. I’ll be mostly available in the afternoon, but I also have my hours available on my profile. I have one small-medium size, very friendly dog at home, and a fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I would prefer to do visits in the clients home, because I do live with my family, however depending on the dog it may be possible.

About: I have a lifetime of experience with dogs and cats. I was a in elementary school when I got my first cat. I have experience taking care of and owning both dogs and cats. I’m an animal lover in general and love to play with them and give affection. I used to take our dog Cody, who we rescued (golden retriever) swimming, running, jet skiing, hiking, etc. My home and style is safe and quite. I am very strong, physically fit (pilates instructor) respectful and well mannered. I say hello to animals more than I do people. Dogs in my care usually get 5 walks a day. I work part time teaching Pilates and most times I teach at home so I have plenty of time to spend pampering your pet. My cats and dog were very loved and well cared for. I fed them only organic and they got fresh water twice a day. Playing games and cuddling, all tailored to your pet’s personality. Daily walks and ear/neck scratches. Frequent walks. I’m a fitness influencer so I love getting exercise and being in nature.

About: I grew up with animals my whole life. I have a passion for pets of all sizes and species. I am excited to be able to help you by caring for your pets while you are away. Your babies will be cared for and loved just as if they were my own! I worked in an animal hospital dispensing medication for several years. I then went on to work at one of the largest animal welfare organizations in the United States. I work remotely and have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. I also drive and can get to a location fairly quickly. I thoroughly enjoy taking fur babies for walks and spending time with cats in their home (or mine!) I currently live in a lovely apartment with my constant companion, a tuxedo cat (rescued of course). My home is safe and peaceful. While I do not have access to a backyard I live close to two beautiful parks for optimal dog walking enjoyment!

She keeps me updated at all times and will let me know if anything is wrong. She will ask me if they dog is allowed to eat anything else like a piece watermelon for them to try and makes sure everything is 100% okay before acting upon anything.

Locust Point dog parents share their Rover experiences
Angelena is really the best! Treats our Leah like she is her own fur baby. So attentive to her needs and makes sure Leah feels safe and loved. She’s also very flexible, I can request a last minute change and she makes it happen.

Janet was great! Biscuit was a little nervous, but warmed up to her and enjoyed his walk. She was patient and gave us great updates. Can’t wait to have her back again :)

Cemre recently started walking my dog. She is a good communicator and quick to respond! She will leave extra details about her walk with my dog where they enjoy their time together. Cemre and I have flex work schedules which change each week. She’s a pleasure to check in with to accomodate my pup with our schedules.

Allison is the absolute best. She quickly put my anxious pup at ease, a thing very few other walkers have managed to do. She's calm and has the patience of a saint.

Christina was so warm right from the start! Very professional, knowledgeable and communicative throughout the process. She takes amazing photos of your pets and it’s obvious she enjoys what she does. Wonderful experience and I continue to book with her!
