About: I’ve taken care of many dogs before! I am very comfortable around them and always make their health a priority. I grew up around dogs and have had friends trust me with their pets while on vacation in the past. I work remotely 4 days a week, so I have plenty of time to care for your pup! They will get constant attention and walks when needed. My schedule is very flexible and I am willing to work with anyone else’s schedule. I live near a bunch of parks, so there is plenty of room for your dog to run around. I also live in a safe neighborhood and people are always out walking their dogs. House is safe for pets.
“Catherine was fabulous as always. She is our go to when need someone to walk or sit out little man. She was able to make these walks work last minute which was SO appreciated!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a little, and I have also taken care of my own dog for the past five years. I’ve also coached young children, which are ironically close in communicating as it is communicating to animals. I am currently working part time, therefore, I will have plenty of time to play with your animals. I am available from 8 AM to 5 PM. I am fully aware of how animals can be and how some are very strong, Some are very feisty, and that some need boundaries. however, I am also able to and know how to calm animals down and maintain them in a properly manner.
“Lauren has been an absolute godsend for Rupi and me. She’s been walking Rupi for over 2 months. She's incredibly reliable, always on time, and fantastic at communicating. Rupi is consistently in the best mood when I get home, which tells me she's had a great walk and is in excellent hands. I never have a single worry when Lauren is caring for my dog - I couldn't be happier with her service!”
About: I grew up in a home full of animals (cats, dogs, rabbits, and even birds!), so being around pets has always felt natural to me. Because of that, I’m comfortable reading different personalities and adjusting how I approach each one. Over the years, I’ve become the go-to person for friends and family when they travel, and they trust me because I’m consistent, observant, and good at keeping routines steady. I’m comfortable with: - Senior pets (slower pacing, mobility awareness, gentle handling) - Shy or anxious pets who need patience and space - Multi-pet households with mixed species or different temperaments I pay attention to the little details- energy levels, appetite changes, what makes a pet nervous or relaxed- so nothing slips by. And I keep communication clear and honest, with updates that actually show how your pet is doing. My goal is to give your pet the same familiar, steady care they’d get if you were home! I work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to focus on caring for your pets! I’m available for daily walks, drop-in visits, or longer stays, and I can adjust my schedule to meet the needs of each pet. Consistency is important to me, so you can count on regular check-ins, on-time visits, and focused attention whenever I’m with your animals. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a calm, secure environment in my spacious apartment, which has plenty of room for pets to move around and relax. I live just steps away from dog parks and the rail trail, so there’s easy access to safe, fun walks and outdoor exercise. I’m attentive, reliable, and committed to following any routines or instructions you provide, so you can trust your pet is in good hands while you’re away!
“Waffle loooooooooves Melissa! I love Melissa!! What more can one ask for? Oh, let me tell you how great her photos are every visit! Brightens my day to see my pup having a good time while I’m at work <3.”
About: I am a lifelong dog lover, and have always jumped at the opportunity to take care of them! I would always ask my neighbors if I was able to help out with theirs, from frequent walks, and eventually house sitting when they needed. During college, many of my friends got puppies so I would take care and train them while they went traveling. I love dogs and cherish every one as if they were my own. I work remotely so I am very flexible for playing and boarding! I would love to spend time and care for your dogs whenever they need. It’s important to me that you feel comfortable and trust me with your pups. I’m happy to meet and greets before drop-ins and overnight care.

“Megan is the best! She’s super reliable, great with communication, and so sweet with Ladd. Ladd can be stubborn about walking in cold weather, and Megan has been incredibly patient and understanding with her. So grateful to have found Megan—highly recommend!”
“Jessie helped me out last minute with my dog! She is a great dog walker and has excellent communication. I really appreciated the thorough update and pics she provided. I would definitely hire again ! Thanks Jessie.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old. Ever since my Bichon passed, I have been missing having a dog and look forward to taking care of your dogs I am currently working part-time from home, so I have a lot of time and flexibility to take great care of your beloved pet :) My building has an outdoor roof area for quick dog breaks, and I also live near a few different parks for dog walks and bathroom breaks
“Eun Ae went absolutely above and beyond walking our pup! I’m so grateful to have her help and couldn’t have asked for a better dog walker! She sends lots of photos and even spent time after the walk to play a little! I trust her and hope to use her services much more in the future. Highly recommend to anyone in the area.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes and have been dog sitting for friends and family for years. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic young dogs to older dogs who need a slower pace. I work fully remotely, so I’m home throughout the day and can give your dog plenty of attention, walks, and care. Living in NYC without a dog of my own, I truly love the opportunity to spend time with dogs and treat each one like they’re my own. I work fully remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be present throughout the day for walks, playtime, and check-ins. I can easily adapt my routine to meet your dog’s needs, whether that’s regular walks, feeding schedules, or just keeping them company. I want every dog to feel comfortable and relaxed, whether they’re in my home or I’m in theirs. I stick closely to your dog’s usual routine and take the time to get to know their personality, energy level, and any specific needs. I’m attentive on walks, aware of our surroundings, and always keep safety top of mind. I’m also very respectful of your home and any instructions you leave. I genuinely love being around dogs, so I try to make sure they feel cared for, happy, and at ease the whole time we’re together.
About: I've taken care of my own family dog for the past 14.5 years and have learned how to effectively care for and be there for a dog! I work a full-time job and am in the office Tuesday-Thursday but have a lunch break that I am able to walk home to tend to a dog and take them for a nice long walk. I have a large living room for your dog to relax, hang, and play in as well as a bedroom of my own that is large for the dog!
About: I have over 10 years of hands on experience with dog walking, boarding, and caring for pets of all personalities. My first pet was a cat named Charlie, who I had for 10 years before he passed away. I currently have a dog, Millie, who has taught me so much about patience, training, and emotional care especially because she came from a tough past. As a pet parent myself, I treat every pet as if they were my own, with the same safety, love, and attention. All of my pet services are managed through my registered business, Gheit Ventures LLC, to provide a professional and reliable experience for every client. I work remote so I am home 24\7. I get an hour lunch break, I will use that time to walk if needed and after my shift (6pm). On weekends I am free so I will have all the time in the world to give your furry child all the attention they need. I have a two bedroom apartment, a little spacious so your pet will have the space they need to roam around if needed. I also have a gate to use if needed.
“Vignesh is Destiny’s new bestie! He goes above and beyond to make her feel comfortable on her walks, and makes sure she gets enough sniffs in throughout. He is very communicative and is always flexible whenever something comes up. You can tell by Destiny’s tail wag and huge smile that she got to hang out with him that day!”
“Ashley has been incredibly communicative and wonderful. She is able to deal with all personalities of pets and sends various photos and gives a detailed update. Truly would recommend her to anyone for both dogs and cats!”
Murray Hill dog parents share their Rover experiences
Rachael is the absolute best! The creatures fell in love with her immediately, and had such a good time with her. Trust me, anyone who can walk a lively standard poodle in wildly busy downtown NYC is gold. We've been with Rover for many years and have always had great experiences, but Rachael is definitely the winner.
Koral was incredible with my pup Sadie! My dog is very reactive and nervous, she tends to be scared of new people but she loved Koral! Koral did a great job with her and was very communicative, I’d definitely recommend her for rescue dogs. I will definitely keep her in mind for future walks!
Beverley was absolutely amazing. I had a super last minute meeting in the city and nowhere for my doggy, and she came to the rescue! I am so grateful for her kindness and flexibility. My dog was so relaxed and not at all nervous when she came back—it was clear she had a great time! Beverley is clearly an animal lover and cares deeply about the pets she watches. Thank you!!!
If you have a big fur baby, who maybe pulls a little on their leash because they’re a bit anxious, then I promise Emily is the walker for you. She took such great care of my Chonky dude. I received pictures. She was prompt. She was kind. My pup immediately fell in love with her from the moment he met her. I can’t thank Emily enough for walking my Bubba.
Karan is an exceptional dog walker and sitter. He is consistently professional, respectful of my space, and very easy to communicate with. He was extremely accommodating of my schedule during a hectic time, and the level of care he provided Charlie was outstanding. I recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a reliable pet caregiver.
