Dog Walking Northern Heights

About: Animals have been a big part of my life for over 20 years. I currently have two dogs that I raised from puppies, so I understand the patience, consistency, and attention that great pet care requires. I treat every pet like family and always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently work as a freelance software developer, so I have a flexible schedule with open availability for pet care. This gives me the ability to provide reliable, consistent care and be available for walks, drop-ins, and other pet care needs throughout the week. During walks and drop-ins, I prioritize safety by using secure leashing practices, monitoring the environment, and making sure pets have fresh water and plenty of attention. I also provide regular updates with photos so owners know their pets are being well cared for. My goal is to make each visit stress-free and enjoyable while treating every pet like my own.

“Super communicative and truly takes the time to ensure the little details to make sure your baby has the best experience! Would highly recommend and will definitely be using her again in the future!”

About: Going on vacation, need a getaway, or just take a break? Trustworthy and reliable house and pet sitter can help. Need a companion to supervise your kids, pets, and elderly family? Caring for your loved ones at home, while they do their normal routine and activities, to be cozy and comfortable. I love being around people, kids, and pets doing activities, conversing, or just quietly keeping them company, if preferred. My experience includes property management, substituting in public schools, volunteer at animal shelters and rescues, helped with community cats, and also watch my own critters along with friends and family. I do have a part-time property management career during the day but can schedule you early mornings and late afternoon evenings, as well as weekends, and holidays. Visits and tasks are personalized with your instructions, to meet your needs. Let me know if I can assist you with anything and get some spare time on your hands to do more!

“Tim is timely and when he arrives he quickly leashes and starts walks. The dogs are excited to see him and they are eager to head out the door. They do the loop in the neighborhood and each dog gets one on one for the walk”

About: Animals sense I'm a big momma, and trust me, I have my own 3 beautiful dogs and want to help others who may not have the extra time to be a friend in need. I am a full time at home mom of teenagers and like to volunteer to help my community. I also homeschool so I'm flexible to change schedules. I prefer letting pets be a guide, my experience is most like their home and routine so I let the pet take it's time on their turf to trust and feel safe.

About: Hi, I’m Destini! Caring for dogs has always been a standard part of my daily routine. I have two dogs of my own, so I'm well-versed in handling different personalities, energy levels, and daily care needs. ​For a long time, I’ve been the go-to dog walker and sitter for my cousins and extended family whenever they need a hand or head out of town. Because I already love spending my free time taking care of pups, I decided to offer my services on Rover to help other busy dog owners in our community! P.S. For safety, a companion joins me for all first visits. ​I work a flexible 8-hour schedule from Monday to Friday, which allows me to easily prioritize your pet's needs throughout the day. Whether it requires waking up early for a morning walk or offering dedicated care late at night, I always make sure your fur baby gets full attention, affection, and timely care. For drop-in visits, I follow all feeding, medication, and playtime instructions to the letter, ensuring your home stays secure when I leave. For walks, I use sturdy leashes/harnesses, stick to safe routes, keep a close eye on weather conditions, and never allow interaction with unfamiliar dogs. You will always receive detailed updates and photo reports after every visit!

About: I've cared for all sorts of animals from dogs, cats, rabbits, & chickens throughout my life. I also have experience with multiple pets at once! I'm available anytime on weekends, after 12pm on Mondays & Wednesdays, before 12pm and after 3pm on Tuesdays & Thursdays, and anytime after 11am on Fridays. Your pet always comes first! Whether they have very specific needs, diets, or just want to play, your pet's wants and needs are my priority.

“Sarah is fantastic. My dog Lena looks forward to seeing her every day. She is always willing to go above and beyond.”

Larisa K.

“John came to take Lady for a run on a drizzly cold day and Lady loved it! She is an excellent judge of character and she took to John right away, and remembered him even though it had been a while since her last walk (3 months)! She had lots of fun and I recommend John!”

Karen S.

“Cassi is amazing ! I am pretty picky when it comes to walking my puppy a certain way and she didn't hesitate to take the time to learn the different cues and commands I use so that she can help reinforce his training while on walks with her. She kept me updated throughout the visit and I was at ease knowing my baby was in good hands while I was away.”

Jessica C.

“Christiana is so fun! My dog is so excited to see her and is literally bursting with excitement when she knows their walk is coming up. 10 outta 10”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always helped care for family pets, including feeding, walking, bathing, and giving them lots of attention and love. I’ve also pet sat for my cousin’s dog and cat, where I was responsible for their daily routines, walks, feeding, and making sure they felt comfortable while their owner was away. I’m very patient, attentive, and understand how important it is to follow a pet’s routine and make them feel safe in a new environment. I’m comfortable with different dog sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I always make sure pets get the care, exercise, and affection they need. I have a flexible schedule (work remotely) and can be available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting throughout the week. I’m especially available during afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I’m reliable, responsive, and happy to work with your pet’s specific routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow owner instructions closely and make sure pets feel secure and cared for in their own home. I’m attentive on walks, aware of my surroundings, and experienced navigating busy NYC streets safely with dogs. I’ll treat your home and pet with the same care and respect as my own.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I grew up with big dogs- Rottweilers, blue heelers and pit bulls. Over the 2022 summer, I potty trained 2 Great Dane puppies, I also taught them how to sit, stay, and overall manners. I love animals and truly enjoy having them around. I do online college. I prefer to do payments privately due to Rover taking 20% of profits. WHEN PAYING PRIVATELY: it’s 30 per night, additional dogs it’s $18 (per dog), For cats it’s $10 per night, each cat is additional $7 dollars. (I have a photos of the fees rover takes out on my gallery) I care for my own dogs, she is a 6 years old American stafforshire terrier. I feed her, take her to the dog park, walk her, bathe her, and overall care for her. I make sure the dogs I’m caring for are let out when needed, I play with them as much as I can, and I feed them when they are scheduled to be fed. I love playing with dogs so I’d play with them and take them out on walks.

“Faith stuck with my stubborn girl who initially refused to go on a walk. She won the battle of wills and also my dogs heart.”

“Roxanna was amazing! Highly recommend. She's the best. Can't wait to collaborate with her again!!”

“Reliable, wonderful at communicating, and cares for my dogs like they’re her own. My pups can’t wait wait until their next walk and enjoy her patient and attentive way with them. She does well with redirecting and positive reinforcement.”
