“Tara is an amazing carer for animals. She takes great care of our two dogs. She is always on time, and she always takes pictures of them. She is an excellent communicator, and a super sweet human. We are thankful for her!”
“Kerry is a gem!! My senior dog needs lots of TLC and patience (he's lost most of his vision and hearing, has trouble with stairs and occasionally gets confused), so I was nervous about bringing in someone to walk him. Kerry immediately put my fears to rest -- asked all the right questions, was wonderful with my dog, and communicated well and often during the visit. I won't hesitate to have him visit again and am relieved I found him.”
About: My mom is a veterinarian so I have always been around animals. I have fostered and cared for many animals throughout my life having grown up on a farm. I also am currently training a service dog which is very rewarding! I am at college right now, so I’m doing walks and drop in visits that fit my school schedule. I am free weekends and certain days of the week! I want to make sure your animals feel safe in their space without you for a little while! I want to disrupt their routine as little as I can and my priority is caring for them!
About: What sets me apart is that I’ve cared for dogs through every stage of life. I grew up with three dogs starting when I was 12, so I have experience with everything from managing puppy energy to giving older dogs the patience, gentleness, and attention they need. I’ve also helped friends and family with their dogs over the years, whether that meant walks, drop-ins, or caring for them while they were away. This is the first time since childhood that I’m living without dogs, and I’d love the chance to help care for yours like they’re my own. I work full-time during the week, so weekends are the best fit for me right now. That’s when I have the most flexibility and can give dogs more of my time and attention without feeling rushed. I live in a house with a front and backyard, giving dogs plenty of room to relax, play, and get fresh air. There are also several parks nearby, so walks and outdoor time are easy to work into the day. I know every dog is different, so I’ll make sure to follow their normal routine and keep them comfortable, safe, and cared for like they’re my own.
About: I’ve cared for dogs for family and friends over the years, including walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I like sending photo updates so pet parents know their pets are safe and cared for. My schedule is flexible, and I can usually help with drop in visits, walks, and pet care during the week or on weekends. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and updates. I prefer clear instructions so your pet stays comfortable and on schedule. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding, leash rules, medication notes, litter cleanup, and home access details. I keep pets supervised, use secure leashes, and send updates/photos during visits. I do not currently have pets of my own, so I can give each pet my full attention.
“We used Rover and Tatiana for the first time for a last minute trip to visit my daughter in college for her birthday. Tatiana was fantastic! Prompt communicative and a good sense of humor. My dog seemed happy and content when got home. Definitely will be calling Tatiana again!”
“Lorenzo did an amazing job walking our baby! Latte doesn’t need much: just a little walk to pee and poop and then he’s ready to head back in. He did just that and it was a great help as I work a hybrid schedule so I’m unable to walk Latte when I’m in office. Having someone come over while we’re out of the house and tend to our baby’s schedule is just something we need, especially with such a trustworthy dog handler! Latte was very amicable with Lorenzo, so this is definitely a great start to something new.”
“Thurane is a fantastic dog companion. It is clear that he cares about our dog and it's very clear she looks forward to seeing him. He is prompt, communicates timely and clearly, and is very reliable. I highly recommend him.”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my whole life. Friends, family, and peers trust me to take care of their pets while they’re away. I made sure that they returned home better than ever like they went on a vacation too! I have experience with high-energy pups to senior dogs and can adapt to their personality and pace. I enjoy caring for animals from walking, playing, administering medication, grooming, and providing a calm space. What find most important is being patient and attentive to what your pet specifically needs. My top priority is always keeping pets happy and healthy. I’m currently on a break from school and not working on anything else. My dog, cat, and turtle keep me company in the house. I enjoy daily walks, visiting the park, and sunset outings. Rain or shine I’m available to go on walks, have playtime, visit parks, or give cozy cuddles. I’d be happy to take dogs out to walk wherever they’re most comfortable. I can also assist with grooming, clean up, take in mail, water plants, or any other tasks. I’m currently not taking pets into my home but I am willing to travel.
About: Love dogs all kind. First I pet seat my friend’s dogs when they were away. Then I got my own dog. Alaska is a 34 lbs pomsky. She is very playful and would like a company. I can take your dog to a dog park or the dog beach. Both of those amenities are next to my house. Moreover I have small fenced yard for playing with bunch of balls.I work from home , so have a lot free time to pet sit fur babies and take them for plenty of walks. If you are away for a short trip, book your pet a bed and breakfast inn in my house. I will take care of your furry friend either at my house or yours. Currently work from home. Very flexible. However prefer drop offs and pick ups in mornings. If pick up after 3 pm addition charge may apply I have fenced yard where. I can let dogs out for quick pee and play if needed. However I take them on walks at least 2 times a day. If good weather, I may take them to the dog park or rye beach
“Valentina was right on time everyday and always took Abbey for a long 30 minute walk each time. She provided pictures and was very responsive through the app when I checked on my pup. Will definitely have her walk Abbey in the future”
About: I am an animal lover! I grew up with both dogs and cats so I can promise to make sure your pet is comfortable and cared for. With me, your pet will be treated like family! I have several years of experience caring for pets of all ages, different breeds, and personalities. Whether it’s providing nice walks for energetic dogs, fun playtime for sweet kitties or offering gentle care for senior pets, I will always tailor my approach to your pet’s specific needs. What sets me apart is my dedication to creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. I will take my time to learn your pet’s preferences, routine and personality to ensure they feel happy & engaged. I work from home 3 days a week and am around during weekends so have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I can provide walks or drop in care during weekdays when you are at work and will be available for longer care if you are gone for the weekend. During any drop-in visits in your home, my main goal is to ensure your pet feels safe & comfortable. I will stick to their routines with feeding, exercise and cuddle time to provide the utmost care!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Purchase
I had Christopher come by this weekend for a meet and greet, and I was immediately impressed by how knowledgeable and experienced he seemed with dogs. Since my dog, Nela, doesn’t do well around other dogs, I really needed someone who would be patient, attentive, and confident handling her on walks. Nela seemed to really enjoy her walk with Christopher today, which made me very happy and comfortable knowing she was in good hands. I also loved the photos he sent after the walk, it was such a nice way to see how everything went. I’m very happy with Christopher and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, patient, and experienced dog walker!
I've had a great experience with Jennifer, - She is on time, dependable, and clearly care about my dog. I appreciate the updates and communication. It's reassuring to know I can count on her when I need help. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and responsible dog walker
Kerry is the absolute best, hands down. He is so responsive, creative, and caring with how we handles every animal in their own unique way. My dog went from yapping at him to embracing him wholeheartedly after just one meet/greet. I highly recommend Kerry and would add that he is a genuinely great person with whom to work. 5 stars without question!

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Purchase. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
