Sylvia is a great communicator and very caring to my dog. She made sure he got his water, wore his cooling vest, shoes and stayed safe during the most intense heat wave. She eased my worries, I highly recommend Sylvia!

Jessica has been caring for my dog Niko for several years. From the first meeting I was impressed with how she interacted with Niko and how quickly she put him at ease. He loves her and when I have to leave him knowing Jessica is there to care for him gives me incredible peace of mind! She is someone who really loves and understands animals and it shows in how happy and relaxed Niko is when I return home. You couldn’t ask for a better caretaker for your pet!

Hemei has been great with my dog Kiara! She walks her a 3-4 times a week and is very responsive, professional, and communicative. She is very flexible with her schedule which is amazing since my week to week work schedule sometime varies. Hemei made the extra trek for a meet and greet before starting so that I could rest assured that my dog would be comfortable with her. She is reliable and a true dog lover and you know she will look after your fur baby as her own. Highly recommend her!

Maria did a great job walking my dogs. She quickly developed a nice rapport with them, and I know Lucky loved his longer walks to the park, and Harley her short walks.

About: I’ve taken care of my sisters dog since she had rescued her since she was a puppy and has cared and loved for it no matter when the dog needed attention. I’m looking to take care of your pets on the side while i finish my degree in university. I have lots of availability as i am nearing the end of my school, so my schedule is open. I’d love to take care of your pets needs. I care for my pet by walking it, feeding her, playing with her and taking her to dog parks and meeting my friends so she can be active with others. I also have a cat who i take care of each and every day because he is very needy so I’m no stranger to special treatment for your pets.

About: I’ve looked after dogs of all types of dogs. Small, large, fluffy, skinny, you name it. Also love cats and looking after them as well. Would love to expand my horizons to other, less conventional pets some day. Maybe reptiles… I have lived with one or more pets consistently for more than half my life. Many pets and creatures I’ve called my friends. Would love to make it a full-time job someday. I act lovingly and compassionately towards the animals I’m watching, but show them that things like jumping and biting are not okay when considering how their trainers want their training schedule to look like. Every animal is different, so I take an individual approach.

This was our first Rover experience so we were nervous. As soon as we recieved our first Rover card from Ari our nerves were gone! We have a senior dog currently with a paw injury requiring special instructions. Ari paid attention to every detail and sent us the sweetest pictures of our boy. We already have our next walks booked! Thus far reliable, communicative and responsible! Thank you Ari!!☺

About: ***LOCATED IN BAYSIDE,QUEENS*** Hi there! I love all fur babies and welcome them with open arms. I’m a firm believer that while small moments with our pets may seem minuscule to us, they are everything to them— so let’s make it count! I grew up with a cocker spaniel and recently lost my rescue pup to cancer. Due to her long treatment regimen, I feel comfortable administering oral medications. She was a jack russell mixed with a dachshund so you know training was a handful! She suffered from some separation anxiety that we trained through so I have experience with this challenge (pandemic puppies am I right?) But we still had the best time. We explored parks, she sniffed the fun smells of NY, we snuggled on the couch and played fetch every evening. Whatever your pet is into, I’m up for! I work remotely in a dog-friendly building. My job is very flexible when it comes to hours so I can do my best to accommodate nearly every reasonable scenario depending on my meeting times for that given day. However, please no bookings after 7:30pm. In terms of supplies, I do ask pawrents to please bring any necessary food, crates, toys, meds, blankets, etc. I prefer to not cross-contaminate supplies for the health and safety of all pets. All feeding times/walking schedules will be up to the discretion of the pawrent— you know your pet best! I also have pee-pads available for those puppers who are not yet fully potty trained. Lastly, my home layout is quite pet friendly. I keep bedroom and bathroom doors closed since they are out of my line of sight when I work and the kitchen/living room is an open concept. For smaller pets, I can gate away a certain area if pawrents prefer.

Ellison is a wonderful dog walker. She arrived early every single time she came to pick up my dog, which I truly appreciated. She gave Daisy a nice, long walk, and I was very pleased with the results. While I was away, Daisy was extremely happy and well cared for. Ellison is sweet, kind, and very attentive to details—especially important since Daisy can be quite picky. Overall, she is an absolutely fantastic person, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly

Coming to leave another review. My dog can be such a miserable brat when we’re outside. She just chased someone this morning. But when she sees Nando, she’s as gentle as a lamb. Dogs truly do have great intuition, and they recognize dog lovers. Nando truly has a gift working with them and they love him.
