About: I have taken care of a large dog for 14 years and have been around dogs my whole life. I have taken care of and walked dogs of neighbors and friends, both in my home and in their home. I love walking and staying active, and will be very attentive to your pup! I work completely from home, M-F 9-5! I have a lot of free time for walks, attention giving, etc and am perfectly suited to care on the weekends as well. I live by several parks and in a very dog-friendly building. The apartment is puppy proofed, and though not suitable for longer stays, is great for short-term, 1 night only or daytime stays! Live with two roommates who are also dog people and would assist in taking care of your dog if needed. I'm very familiar with the city and would be happy to bring your dog on adventures throughout :) Let me know if you have any more questions!
“Mandel has been our dog walker for some time now. Usually book him 3 times a week. He’s extremely reliable, and every time he gets near my house, my two huskies can sense him and they become extremely excited. They love him.. they can be tough to walk sometime, but it seems Mandel has managed to calm them down during the walks. I’m very grateful and I’m sticking to him as a dog walker. Totally would recommend.”
“Cosmo enjoyed his walks with Tulin. She was very punctual and took good care of my little guy. I would recommend her to others needing an enjoyable walk for their dogs.”
“Marla was amazing for walking my puppy, Maui! He was very comfortable with Marla, and loved her and had a great walk!”
“Catalina always does an amazing job walking our pup and I couldn’t be more thankful to see the love and attention she gives him when he’s with her. And the cherry on top is her great photos always! Highly recommend!”
“Elizabeth is very kind and patient with my dog, she’s always early and takes care of my pup second time booking and would definitely keep booking!”
About: I am an Environmentalist dog lover who enjoys walking dogs and dog sitting during my spare time. I also volunteer as a dog walker at a locaI animal shelter. I specialized in nervous, shy, as well as older dogs. Most of my experience is with small, and medium-sized dogs, however, I have no problem walking large dogs. I have a very calm and loving personality that dogs gravitate towards and I enjoy giving dogs a playful, happy walking experience. I enjoy taking dogs on their routine walk that they are comfortable with as well as giving them a walking experience that will introduce them to new sights, smells and sounds. I can be your emergency dog walker or your weekend/vacation dog walk. I am also open to being a house/dog sitter and making sure your home and dog are taken care of with the utmost respect and love. I work full time( 9-5)during the week but my weekends are available. If you would like a dog walker during the week I would be great as an evening dog walker, especially during the winter months.I am available to work in Manhattan or Queens. If your pet likes to stick to a routine or if you’re in the process of training your pet and a routine it required in order to solidify the training ,I can provide the environment needed. Feel free to reach If you have any particular request for pet sitting or dog walks. I aim to bring quality service to my pet clients and their owner.
“Laura has been so wonderful to Sailor! She is extremely caring and patient with our rambunctious pup! Laura is also extremely flexible- we both work and needed to bring in a walker in such a pinch and she was ready to hit the ground running. As first time dog owners, we’ve been learning as we go and Laura has been great at growing with us. She does everything asked of her and more and we feel so blessed to have connected with her. I can not recommend her enough!!”
“Brently! Is a great guy and is super quick with his responses. Booked him again! Keis my pit has enjoyed Brently's company very much.”
“If you haven’t booked Irene yet I’d suggest you do so. She’s amazing and it’s clear she absolutely loves animals! She was so awesome with Stoney. Stoney is super energetic and tends to pull on walks. Thanks for your patience! I would absolutely book with her 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: Why Rover? My fur baby crossed the rainbow bridge at 17 years old, over a year ago. I miss my dog, but im happy that this platform gives me the opportunity to be around dogs again. About me: I work in fashion and love dogs. I wish could be surrounded by them everyday. I adore dogs of all ages, but senior dogs hold a special place in my heart. I’m experienced in caring for seniors, including administering daily medications. I understand it’s stressful leaving your fur baby with strangers, but I’m extremely communicative and responsible. I’d treat your baby like my own. Im open to connecting prior to confirming the booking, if it helps calm any nerves. I am home most days of the week. I'm in the office 2 days per week. Fortunately my office has a relaxed pet policy, and I'm able to bring in dogs to work. I live in an apartment and believe dogs should never be crated. They’re free to roam my home and are welcome to sleep on my bed at night.
“Analucia is great! She’s prompt, professional, communicative, and knowledgeable. She’s aware of my dog’s triggers on walks and navigates them well. She paid careful attention to instructions and kept me updated on her time with my pup!”
