About: I’ve been a dog mom for more than 15 years of my life. I have a small senior dog who gets along with everyone. We love having other dogs hang out with us. I’m very active and enjoy taking dogs for all kind of fun walks. I currently work from home 3 days a week and spend lots of weekends at home taking care of my senior dog. I am the go to person with all my friends and family when it comes to pet care. My senior dog spends much of his time in a giant play pen sleeping in our apartment. We still make it out for 3 walks a day. My apartment is very pet friendly.
“Joshua came to walk my pups on a rainy day. This is the most difficult time to walk them as they hate rain and are shy around new people. He did great! He took them both out and checked in with me to keep me up to speed and if he had any questions. I have trouble taking them out in rainy days so 10/10 will definitely book again!”
“Sin Ying is an absolute pleasure and I feel so happy she is caring for my pup Frank. He’s a little elderly and a bit of a pain in the butt - but she has been so patient with him and provides the best updates and pictures about his daily walks. She also loves on my kitty too so he never feels left out. She’s amazing!”
About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I used to be that kid on the block who would help the cats, the kittens or any lost dog off the streets to find their owners or placed in a new home. It used to drive my mom crazy but she let me help them, it has made me forever grateful for the fur babies I have free time to walk the fur babies at your need, currently unemployed, I recently moved back to NYC with my fur baby and my turtle with my partner. I am more than happy to assist and keep them company as I would want someone to do for my fur babies. My baby has so many loved ones who are helping me care for him so I would love to extend the help for those in need. It is my first time on Rover but if you introduce me to your babies you will see my love for animals is creating not only a safe space but ensuring they are happy, taken care of while their parents are working. Working and having pets is very demanding and I know it isn’t easy. I used to cry leaving my baby home alone for hours at a time due to work. I currently live in an apartment but my dog is trained to not run out of the door, we are very careful with entering and exiting. I would be devastated if my dog ever got lost. Taking care of another person fur baby would be like taking care of my own. I also make sure the floors do not have anything that can be ingested. It’s scary for a pet to ingested something foreign where it makes them sick. Any extra precautions that need to be taken I would make sure to follow through.

I was scared to go and leave my fur baby. Jose was excellent his patience and communication skills are top notch. He keep me informed of everything he did with Nyla and he also sent plenty of photos.. I will definitely be using Jose to watch Nyla in the future. I wish I could rate him 10 stars. He deserves it.
I appreciated that she had availability on the weekend since i made sort of a last minute booking. Cosmo warmed up to her quickly and enjoyed his walk. She even made sure to wipe him down after he returned home. I would recommend to others and will rebook with Nusta in the future.
I needed a dog walker last minute, and Ashley immediately replied and made time to meet with me before the walk to go over everything. That alone made such a great first impression! From the minute Toby met her, he was excited and comfortable around her, and I knew he was in good hands. 😇 Ashley took Toby on a full hour-long walk and sent me pictures and live updates throughout. Seeing him enjoying himself gave me so much peace of mind. She even brought toys for him to play with, which was such a thoughtful touch! What stood out most was how attentive she was, both to Toby and to making sure I felt comfortable. Even with a last-minute booking, she took the time to discuss his care beforehand and kept me informed along the way. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a caring, communicative dog walker. Five stars from me and a very happy Toby! 🐾⭐
Sin Ying is an absolute pleasure and I feel so happy she is caring for my pup Frank. He’s a little elderly and a bit of a pain in the butt - but she has been so patient with him and provides the best updates and pictures about his daily walks.

Briana has been amazing with Eloise!! She is punctual, reliable, and takes wonderful care of my fur baby. We are so thankful to have found her. If you’re looking for a kind, trustworthy pet companion who will update you with lots of pictures, then Briana is your person!
Hillary was absolutely wonderful with Chloe! She took such great care of her on every walk, kept me updated on how Chloe was doing and her activity, and was so sweet and attentive. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Chloe was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Hillary and will definitely be booking her again! ❤️

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.
