“Jaqueline is very kind and you can just tell has a heart and soul for animals. She was very easy to work with and came over for a meet and greet before the first walk. She asked all the right questions during the meet and greet and Bonnie took to her gentle energy right away! Would highly recommend Jaqueline for all your pet services needs!”

About: Fully insured for your peace of mind. Dog mom to my pup Zephyr. Over 25 years of hands on dog experience. Reliable dog lover treating every pup like family and every walk like an adventure. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. As a dog mom to my lab, Zephyr, my days are built around walks, exercise, and making sure he is happy and well cared for. I structure my schedule to provide consistent, reliable walks and visits, so each dog gets the attention, safety, and care they deserve. I do 3 walks a day, depending on your dogs needs and physical limitations. I also provide mental stimulation activities to balance out their energy. I will not be hosting another dog while your pup is in my care because they are my number 1 priority. I have 1 very friendly 5 year old Labrador that gets plenty of walks, treats, kisses and love. Your pup will be very welcome in our pack!
About: I’ve been a dog owner for the last seven years. For the last two years, my fiancé and I have had three dogs: A pug, a Shih-poo, and a beagle. Our puggy and beagle recently passed. I have experience with senior dogs, administering medication, and some puppy training. I also have experience bathing animals. I’m generous with the treats and even more generous with the snuggles! I work from 9-5 M-F but am remote on Mondays, Fridays and alternating Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I can do drop in visits for walks any time during weekends and in the evenings and occasional afternoons during the week. We have a fenced in yard at our home, but our babies also get walks. With me, your pet will come first and always be treated like one of my own.
“Christine is awesome! We’ve scheduled her for weekly walks for our cattle dog mix and he absolutely loves his time with her. She’s communicative, reliable and always sends great pictures after their walks. Highly recommend her for any dog care!”
About: I have nine years of experience owning and taking care of an adopted dog. I have about two years of additional experience pet sitting and walking with dogs of all sizes, from young to senior pups, as well as cats. I am a recent college graduate currently job searching, so my schedule is very open at the moment. I am available most weekdays and weekends for overnight stays or daily check ins. The safety and health of your pets will be my number one priority. I will make sure your pet gets more than enough attention, exercise, and love!

About: Finding someone you trust with your pet is a big decision, so I focus on providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care every time. I’ve spent over 10 years working with animals in a variety of professional settings, including as a dog groomer, and at an animal hospital. Those experiences have taught me how to safely handle dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, while also recognizing when something doesn’t seem quite right. Whether your dog loves long walks, prefers to stop and sniff every tree, or just needs a little extra patience, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and treated like one of my own. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to get to know what makes yours happiest. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and believe communication is just as important as great pet care. You can expect plenty of updates and photos from me! I know our pets are family, and my goal is to make every walk a positive, stress-free experience for both you and your dog. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged best friend! I’m currently a full-time student, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the week. Since my classes are planned in advance, I can easily work around them to provide reliable walks and visits. I enjoy being active, so spending time with dogs fits naturally into my routine. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, an evening outing, or care while you’re at work, I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that meets your needs. Your dog’s safety will always be my top priority. With over 10 years of experience, I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ll use safe leash-handling practices, stay aware of our surroundings, and always treat your dog with patience and care. I’ll also keep you updated after each walk, so you can feel confident your pup is in good hands.

About: (PLEASE review my photos and read through my profile to ensure I’m a good fit for your dog, we want to keep everyone safe!) I offer boarding and daycare with pick-up and drop-off services Monday through Friday. With over 15 years of experience working with dogs, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs. I started by helping family and friends, then volunteered at a local shelter, and today, I work full-time as a dog walker and sitter — and I wouldn’t have it any other way! I’m committed to going above and beyond to meet each dog’s individual needs, no matter how big or small. I want every dog in my care to live their best life! I know how important it is to maintain a dog’s routine and to never cut corners, especially when working on behavioral issues. I look forward to meeting your dog and supporting them on their journey! Safety and Fun Are My Priorities Over the years, I’ve learned a few key things that help keep the environment safe and fun for everyone: • I require a meet-and-greet before any boarding stay, which includes a day of daycare. This allows me to see if your dog is a good fit, gives them a chance to meet the other dogs, and helps them feel comfortable and familiar before their stay. • At mealtime, I feed all dogs individually to avoid food aggression and to ensure each dog stays on their specific diet. • For dogs requiring medication, I administer it privately and carefully, to ensure it’s properly taken and to prevent any accidental exposure to other dogs. • I do not allow toys, bones, or personal beds from home during a stay. This helps prevent any territorial behavior or conflicts. Rest assured, I have plenty of comfortable bedding, engaging toys, and safe chews to keep your pup happy and entertained while they’re here! I can’t wait to welcome your dog into my pack and help them thrive! Daily Schedule: • 6:30 a.m.: Wake-up/morning bathroom break • 8:00a.m -9:00a.m.: Breakfast •. 9:00 a.m.-Morning daycare pick-ups (Monday–Friday) • 10:30a.m. – 12:00 p.m.: Playtime in the yard, with breaks as needed • 12:00 p.m.: Lunch • 1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m.: Quiet time/rest • 2:00 p.m. – 4:30 p.m.: Afternoon playtime in the yard, with breaks as needed • 4:30 p.m. – 6:00 p.m.: Afternoon daycare drop-offs (Monday–Friday) • 6:00 p.m.: Evening bathroom break • 6:15 p.m.: Dinner • 7:15 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.: Evening play session • 8:00 p.m.: Relaxation and quiet time • 9:30–10:00 p.m.: Final bathroom break and bedtime I have three separate fenced-in yards to keep things fun and engaging for the dogs, giving them plenty of space to run, play, and explore. There are multiple crates available for individual feeding or for dogs who might be a little too curious and like to explore things they shouldn’t. I also have my yard treated for ticks and mosquitoes every month to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for everyone. And that’s just the beginning! I provide a wide variety of toys and enrichment activities to keep the dogs mentally and physically stimulated. We do sensory games, have food puzzles to challenge their minds, and even offer quiet, cozy spots for rest and relaxation. Whether your dog loves to play, learn, or just lounge in the sun, there’s something here for everyone to enjoy!
About: I've taken care of all different types of animals since I was a kid, in addition to watching my family and friends dogs from time to time. I currently work full time but am somewhat flexible with my hours and ability to care for your pets! *Boarding: If you're looking to board with me please be aware that I live in an apartment and have two cats of my own. If you do board with me I am more than happy to keep my cats in a different bedroom in my apartment. I can also assure you that even though I don't have a yard, there are plenty of places in the area where I live to take your dog on walks and let them run around if needed. I currently work from 8 am - 5pm Monday through Thursday and until 12 on Fridays. I leave for work around 7:30 and would be able to take dogs for a walk, feed them and watch them in a monitor during the day and take them out again at 5:30 when I would get home. Boarding would typically work best on the weekends for me but it can be manageable during the week as well if needed. Since I do not have a yard I would either walk your dog around my neighborhood or bring them to a local dog park where the area is fenced insuring a safe environment for your fur-baby!
About: Hello.👋 My name is Rolyn. Thank you for choosing me to watch your pup! I’ve been around plenty of dogs and cats growing up and I’ve been in my friends and families houses whether they were on vacation or simply out of town to take care of their pets. My main priority is making sure your pets are well taken care of. I am very well trusted by people and well known to take good care of your dog(s) or cat(s) and also a ton of people can rely on me. The last picture in my photo gallery was my new puppy I got years ago. I named him money. He was a Colby blue nose and red nose pit. I’m currently not working so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your adorable pups. I have an open schedule everyday after 7 a.m. I love going on long walks. I’ll make sure your pups get plenty of exercise and is tired after the walk. I’d love to play fetch with your pet at a park or open field for good exercise. There are a bunch of trails and open parks nearby where I live. I’m going to make sure your pups get outside as much as possible. I do not own any pets currently, but I have in the past. I do have a fenced in yard so that your pet(s) will be safe and leashed and can run around also. I always will abide by the owners rules of their pet(s).
About: I have 4 years worth of dog walking and drop ins! Short-longer walks and short walk - ins to do feeding, take outside, and play! I’m currently a part time worker at my other job, so I have Tuesdays and Wednesdays all available, and Saturdays available to meet your needs! I don’t have a fenced in yard and have my own fur baby that is anxious around other dogs, but glad to care in your home however you’d like me to! Playing in the back yard, crate the dog(s) if needed, walks with or without leash (whichever preferred)!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rockland
Nicole has been walking my dog Banjo for a few months now. She does a wonderful job communicating, giving me a recap of their walk together and making sure he has food and water before she leaves him. She's attentive to detail and highly responsive. Definitely recommend!
Madeline has been walking our Pittie for several months now and does a great job burning her energy out! It has spoiled her and our dog now expects an afternoon walk everyday. Madeline also lets us know if she notices any issues with her habits or stools so we have another set of eyes to help in our busy schedule.
