“Ed was amazing with Kurama! Took the time to meet him the day before his first walk, and was extremely gentle with Kurama. Ed was also very respectful when entering the house as well. I highly recommend !”

“We had a fantastic experience! Annye took wonderful care of our cat, Louis (9), and our dog, Hazel (7), with drop ins and walks over a week. Communication was excellent (we received consistent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind). Both pets were happy and bonded quickly, which says a lot. Also went above and beyond to handle a few issues that came up, and did so with flexibility and care. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend!”
“We cannot say enough great things about Jake as a walker and a kind and thoughtful individual. Jake is a very responsible: always on time, follows directions and is very attentive to our growing puppy. Jake is proactive in communicating any potential issue that may need our attention and makes sound judgment calls in shortening walks should our puppy overheat due to hot and humid weather conditions. He is also very mindful to not let our puppy interact with strangers on their walks to prevent any potential issues. Jake is extremely respectful and truly cares about walking dogs.. We have used Jake for over 1 month 3x times a week and he has never let us down. He is highly recommended!!”


About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my reliability, attention to detail, and hands-on experience working with animals. I’ve volunteered at Sean Casey Animal Rescue, where I helped care for dogs with different temperaments, energy levels, and backgrounds. That experience helped me develop a strong understanding of animal behavior and how to provide calm, patient, and compassionate care. In addition, I often take care of friends’ dogs when they travel or are away, so I’m used to maintaining routines like feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are gone. I’m especially attentive with young pets who need structure and positive reinforcement, and I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs who may need slower walks, extra attention, or medication reminders. I prioritize safety, consistency, and keeping pets relaxed in their environment. I also make sure pet parents stay informed by sending regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make every pet feel secure and cared for, and every owner feel confident their companion is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible freelance schedule and currently no full-time job. This allows me to dedicate consistent time and attention to the pets I care for throughout the day. I’m able to plan my work around walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, and playtime, making sure each pet gets reliable care and attention. Because of this flexibility, I’m also available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits when needed. My routine allows me to be dependable, responsive to pet parents, and fully focused on providing safe, attentive care for every pet. I provide attentive, reliable care that keeps pets comfortable and safe in their usual environment. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, taking dogs on walks, cleaning up after them, and making sure they get plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. I also monitor their behavior and well-being to ensure they are happy and healthy while you’re away. For drop-ins or walks, I make sure pets get the physical activity and attention they need, along with bathroom breaks and any specific care instructions you provide. I respect your home, keep things clean, and send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well. My goal is to make pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while giving owners peace of mind.
“Charlie was great with both Scott (cat) and Jamie (dog). He took great care of them while I was on vacation and they both loved him. Charlie did exactly what I had asked and he was never late. Great communication and lots of photos of my boys. I will definitely book again in the near future.”

“Ocho loves Thoselin! She’s been very conscientious and reliable, and I trust her in my home and with my baby. Ocho can be anxious and hard to get outside, but she’s been flexible and, judging by the photos she sends, he has a great time with her!”


“Simply Amazing! Responsible with my home keys, he was careful with my senior dog and she just loved him. Followed all instructions for feedings and walks, plus he kept us updated every day. Highly recommended and will definitely hire again! =-)”

“Amazing as always. My dog had a great time with her, and immediately chugged water when he got home from the walk. He hates drinking water! Glad he got some exercise, or at least as much as his little Chihuahua legs will allow him.”

About: The first dog that I fell in love with was Charlie, my best friend’s beagle. I cared for him for weeks at a time, and that’s when I realized how much I enjoy looking after dogs. Since then, I’ve had the chance to care for several pets, both on and off the books, and each experience has made me love it even more. Although I’ve never owned a dog myself, I have a deep respect and appreciation for them. I understand the dedication, planning, and responsibility that goes into making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. As much as we wish we could bring our pets everywhere, sometimes the best choice is leaving them in a place where they feel at home. That’s the experience I aim to provide: reliable and thoughtful care that supports your pet’s comfort without requiring you to sacrifice your plans. I am currently unemployed and I live with my parents (who also love dogs), so there’s almost always someone home. I was working at Central Park for these last few months, but now that the season is over I can dedicate myself to working my dream job… along with finding a career that goes with my degree. I’ve cared for dogs both in my own home and in clients’ homes. Our quiet neighborhood has plenty of small parks and green spaces for quick walks or a good 30–35 minute wander. I also have a ground-floor apartment with a fenced backyard where dogs can roam, zoom, or take care of their business when a full walk isn’t ideal. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow whatever routine works best for their dog. I can stay overnight or visit in the mornings and evenings for walks, feeding, playtime, and light grooming. My priority is keeping each dog comfortable by sticking to the routine they know.
“Laura is great!! She always sends lots of pics and updates while she’s walking my Mya. She is a true animal lover which makes me so comfortable leaving my dog in her care. She also is very flexible and will always try to fit walks in and work with my schedule.”

About: Im currently a college student and I love animals. I'm a dog lover, I am very patient and can tolerate and love any type of dog, every dog has their own personality and I respect that. Time management is one of my skills, I'm responsible, your dog will be provided with the care she/he needs, your dog/puppy will be in great hands. I know how important your best friend is, which is why I'll make sure to give you updates as frequent as possible about how your doggie is doing. I have a flexible schedule. Don't worry about weekends! Those are the best days for me. I will also be sure to follow any special instruction your pet may need. I can't wait to spread the love and care with your pets!
About: I have rescued and cared for animals my whole life. In addition, I’ve done pet sitting, walking and administering medication when needed. Reliable and loving. I am currently working part time but have enough flexibility to help out with your pets…even if you just want someone to keep them company, or check in on them. I will spend quality time with your pet..undivided attention, playtime, affection, walking, feeding and fulfilling needs required by pet/pet owner. Pet will not be confined and becomes a “part of the family”.
Queens dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had a great experience with Julian watching Hazel, our Shih Tzu mix, and Louis, our Nebelung cat, for 10 days. He provided drop ins and walks and kept us updated throughout the trip with great communication and lots of photos, which we really appreciated. He was reliable and handled situations that came up during our time away, which gave us peace of mind. When we got home, both pets seemed happy, content, and very well cared for… Hazel even wanted to go with him when he returned our keys! Our home was also left pretty much exactly how we left it. We’re very thankful for the care he gave our pets and would absolutely book with him again.
Diana is wonderful. When we first met her, she took the time to meet our dog Cagney before starting to walk him, gaining his confidence (Cagney is a "Velcro" dog who spends a lot of time at home with my husband) and assessing our dog's needs as well as ours. She is patient, kind and professional. She is punctual, and communicates regularly with us if any changes need to be made. She is a big help to us since we can't always walk Cagney. Cagney looks forward to seeing her and she updates us on his progress during his walks as he becomes more accustomed to being with her. Five stars and much thanks to Diana!

Mayely is incredibly responsive, trustworthy, and dedicated !! She was very communicative with me and it was clear through her words and actions how much she cared for my dog. She was patient with him, walked at his pace, and was eager for him to “use all the facilities”. Will be booking again!!

Christina was great! Our dog can be a little stubborn, but she took the time to make sure Pizza went to the bathroom in rainy conditions (no easy feat!). She was great at communication, thorough in noting our directions, reliable, and our dog immediately seemed comfortable with her. Thanks, Christina!

Charlie was wonderful with my two dogs. Could tell they really took to him to and enjoyed their walks. They can be very reactive to other dogs but he was keen in navigating that challenge, and ensuring everyone’s safety (they’re giant love bugs at home/with people. Just don’t get along with other dogs). Would definitely recommend him if you need a walker. He has my full trust.
