7. Chrisha Marhea N.
“Chrisha is one of the most kind and patient people I know! She often takes care of my pets who tend to get fussy if they are taken off their regular routine so she always makes sure they get fed, taken on walks, etc at their normal time. She is one of the few people I trust around them because of how amazing she is with them, they love her! She is reliable, works well with schedules, friendly, and most importantly she loves animals.”


8. Valeria S.
“Valeria is a caring and fun human being and a genuine dog lover. To the best of my knowledge, she has had several of her own dogs and took great care of them. She is also prompt, punctual and a hard worker. I think she would make a great dog walker for your dog!”


9. Steven N.

11. Brittany H.


“This was our first time using Rover and a dog walker and Brittany is now Quincy’s new special friend! We appreciate so much her willingness to come to meet Q ahead of the first walk/visit. Great experience and we feel very fortunate to have found Brittany to trust Q with. We are so grateful!”

14. Hayden P.

“After my dog had his first walk with Hayden, I knew that I would want to book a repeat walk with him. He was on time and very responsive. He really takes good care of my dog. My dog seems happy after coming home! So glad to find a trust worthy person to take care of my dog!”


15. Jubilee L.

“I’m so thankful I found Jubilee. She is trustworthy and reliable. She gives updates as needed to make you feel comfortable. Thank you for everything!”


16. Nia L.
“Nia is the most energetic and caring person, and her love for animals shines through in every interaction. As a cat mom to a rescue, she’s given her own cat a life filled with love, comfort, and happiness. Nia takes the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs, creating a safe and playful environment. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like her own, I can’t recommend Nia enough! Your furry friend will be in the best hands with her.”


17. Catalina F.
“Catalina was a natural with both of our doodles. I am a very picky dog owner, and have high expectations for someone dealing with my dogs. One is older, and she coaxed him to move along even when he preferred to be sedentary, and the other is an anxious covid pup. She was a natural with both dogs, and easily managed them with their disparate personalities. She was gentle but firm, and now I would say that Cata is one of their favorite people. Cata is responsible and capable with animal care, and I would absolutely trust her in my home and with my dogs.”


18. Christina P.

“Christina was absolutely wonderful with my dog Bailey! She sent pictures and kept me posted on everything. She’s so friendly as well! My dog was in great hands!”


19. Amanda S.

“Amanda has been fantastic so far walking my dog! My dog has some reactivity issues and Amanda has been amazing with managing her on the busy nyc streets! We’re looking forward to working with her.”


20. Kristian M.


“Reliable, communicative and very sweet with my girl (even though she made a mess)! My dog sometimes gets anxious when home alone, and tipped over the garbage can - Kristian did not have to clean up after her, but he did anyway, and gave her lots of TLC - she was relaxed and happy again when I got home. I’ve also had a couple false alarms when I thought I may need a walker, but ended up not - Kristian was ready to pitch in if I needed him, and very easy going when I didn’t. Thank you, Kristian! I highly recommend him if you need someone to care for your doggo.”
