“I am so thankful to have found Serge on Rover. My regular dog walker had to move away with little notice, and I needed a walker ASAP. Based on the reviews, I took a chance on Serge and knew I had made the right choice from the first time we interacted. He is so communicative, and I can tell he loves dogs. This is definietey the guy you want walking your dog.”
“Luis came in clutch with a last minute booking! I’m so thankful because I was traveling and it put my mind at ease to have my puppy taken care of. Tripp was so happy to see Luis each day and get his walks and play time. Luis is very confident with dogs who are sweeties but need redirection and a little extra support.”
“Alex was great with Quinn. She showed up on time great communication and Quinn had a lot of fun with her. She brings her puppy on the walk with her as well so Quinn had a buddy. Will definitely use again and highly recommend.”
“Hennessy relieved so much of my stress while I was on vacation. She was very patient with my Nala, who is still a puppy and rough around the edges. She ever took her for an extended walk because she noticed my mom was working from home. I have never been able to get Nala to walk far distances due to her fear of new surroundings, but Hennessy was able to. She provided me with tips and tricks that I could use to get Nala to be more engaged. I highly recommend Hennessy. she has an amazing work ethic and your pet will be safe and well taken care of!”
About: I am patient, compassionate and very detail-oriented when taking care of furry friends. I have experience administering medication and providing outlets and games for dogs to get their energy out. I have a remote administrative work that I can do around my rover bookings. I enjoy being with animals and look forward to this part of my work life because I get to bond with pets and be playful. I have a dedicated room to board pets, I have 2 cats myself and understand that it might be stressful for pets to be around other pets (especially cats). So I have the visitor pet in a dedicated space with water, food and toys. I take great responsibility and pride in caring for people's fur babies so I like to spend time with them and take them on potty breaks in the fenced-in backyard or on walks.
“Chenelle is an excellent caretaker of Sophia (my dog)! Sophia falls right into her arms when it's time for a walk. Chenelle is always on time, responsible and friendly. Sophia and I are very happy!”
“It was difficult finding a sitter over the busy holiday season that was good with a shy/skittish dog like ours, so glad we found Fatima!! Our dog was immediately comfortable around her, and we knew they’d enjoy their nice long daily walks together. Fatima was also very communicative, she met him beforehand, was helpful in fixing my scheduling mistake, and sent us Rover Cards for every walk. We look forward to booking with her again!”
“Sarah is absolutely the best friend your sweet pup could have! Sarah is incredibly communicative, flexible with great availability, and dependable. I’m lucky to have found a go-to walker like Sarah!”
“Joon is absolutely fantastic! I had Joon walk my dog Toby five days in a row and Toby loved him. Joon is incredibly consistent, kind, and reliable. I am very relieved to have found someone so great and will absolutely have Joon walk Toby again in the future!”
About: I’ve worked in the veterinary industry for about 5 years and had pets for as long as I can remember. I’ve learned to take exceptional care of animals and gained experience along the way. I’ve worked with both cats and dogs. I’ve also learned to administer medications if necessary. I love working with animals and I’m super excited to take care of your fur baby! I have a flexible schedule, and I reside in Manhattan willing to travel as well. I am can work with you around your schedule and needs. I have worked with animals for about 5 years and have learned to recognize certain behaviors. I will ensure that it's a comfortable and enjoyable experience for both me and your fur baby. I also work in the veterinary field and am aware of some health signs. I am trained to notice any immediate health emergencies.
About: I’ve had the joy of being around dogs for as long as I can remember, growing up with both small and large breeds since I was a little girl. Caring for them is a lifelong passion for me. I love not only spending time with dogs but also training them, learning about their unique personalities, and making sure they feel happy, healthy, and understood. My goal as a sitter is to give each dog the same level of love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is thriving while you’re away. As a freelance artist, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to tailor my day around the needs of the pets I care for. My work in the arts gives me the freedom to be present for regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. Because I can easily adjust my routine, I’m able to give each pet consistent attention and love. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my own home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I make sure pets are in a secure environment that they are free from hazards, with access to fresh water, comfortable resting areas, and plenty of safe play space. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, from feeding routines to exercise schedules, and keep a watchful eye on the pet’s behavior and well-being. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and ensure it’s kept tidy and secure. My goal is to provide both the pet and their owner with peace of mind, knowing they’re in a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment.
About: I’ve been a dog lover as long as I can remember. They always bring me so much joy. I had dogs in my home since I was a kid. I’m well experienced walking and feeding and playing with them. They always warm up to me. I’m available all mornings and early afternoons 7 days a week. I work Saturday Sunday and Monday 3-11pm. On those days I can come to check on your dog late if needed. I’m available for overnights at your place except Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I would be mostly coming to your place. If there is an emergency your dog can stay with me temporarily. Some days I’d be working my other job and wouldn’t want to leave them alone.

Regular updates, including pictures or videos, keep pet owners at ease, and your experience ensures that each dog receives the highest level of attention and safety. With a flexible work schedule, i’m in an excellent position to offer dog walks at times that work best for both you and the dog. I can take dogs on regular walks, whether it’s mornings, midday breaks, or evening strolls, ensuring they get the exercise they need without feeling rushed. My availability also allows you to offer extra-long walks or spontaneous outings, which can be great for dogs who need more exercise or variety. My flexibility allows you to be consistent and reliable, which is key in building trust with both dogs and their owners. By offering this level of personalized care, i can help ensure both the pet and the client feel comfortable and confident while i care for their furry loved one.

Silvia M.
“I can't recommend Silvia more! Silvia has been an absolute lifesaver in caring for my two cats, Rumi and Chiquita, whenever I'm away. Not only do they ensure my cats are well-fed and cared for, but they also go above and beyond to spend quality time with them, making sure they feel loved and comfortable. It's clear that Silvia truly cares about animals—they send regular updates, photos, and even notice the little details about my cats' behavior and preferences. Knowing that my pets are in such good hands gives me incredible peace of mind when I have to be away from them. If you're looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely caring pet sitter, look no further! Thank you, Silvia, for taking such great care of my fur babies!”

Morris Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Nicole is a wonderful dog walker! Our senior dog is 15 years old and requires special care when using the bathroom and going up/down the stairs. Nicole had no problem providing accommodations for our girl, and it was more than appreciated. On top of that, she always leaves very detailed Rover notes and pictures after each walk. I would absolutely recommend her!
Carlie is amazing! She is wonderfully kind and thoughtful, super responsible and I didn’t just take my doggy for walks but really but care into helping train her while they were out and also showed her real love! I am so so grateful to have had Carlie’s help to walk my doggy during a time I was injured and could not …. We can’t possibly thank her enough and highly highly recommend her! (And can’t wait to work with her in the future!)
Jaida is our new go-to dog walker in Washington Heights! She has done a great job walking our super-energetic Mini Goldendoodle puppy over the past couple of months. She’s kind, dependable, and truly great with our pup. Communication has been excellent—she’s always transparent and makes full use of the Rover Card, which gives us peace of mind by showing the walking route and bathroom updates. If you’re looking for a friendly dog walker who’s patient with younger dogs, I highly recommend Jaida!
