“Great experience with Jonathan walking and dropping in on my Shiba Inu for the weekend while I was away. He is very reliable and responsive and always sent pictures of my dog, which gave me peace of mind. I will definitely be using Jonathan’s services in the future!”

“Michelle is fantastic. Before scheduling an appointment, she arranged a meet and greet to get to know Apollo. From the moment Apollo met Michelle, we knew he was in great hands. His first walk with her went smoothly, with regular updates and photos. Highly recommend.”

About: 📍 Service area includes the Great Neck Peninsula and surrounding areas of Manhasset and Port Washington. 🔄 Would love to get setup with some regular, repeat clients that align with my work from home schedule. ——— 👋🏼 Hello! I’m Christian, a young professional in Great Neck, NY. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I’m currently available for new clients! I work fully-remote from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can give your dog the attention they need, whether it’s a midday walk, a check-in while you’re at work, or overnight care in your home. I grew up with dogs my whole life, and I got my start walking and caring for dogs professionally through “Wag!” as part of the first group of walkers in Boston while studying at Northeastern University. I’ve been continuing to care for dogs in my spare time since. At home, I live with my fiancé and our labradoodle, Callum, a lovable and energetic boy who always keeps me active. I’m always happy to do a free meet-and-greet to make sure it’s a great fit. Let’s connect; I’d love to meet you and your dog! 😁 I work from home full time, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m happy to accommodate your scheduling needs - just let me know! In both my home and my clients’ homes, I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I follow provided routines closely (feeding schedules, medication, crate time, etc.). I’m attentive to each dog’s specific needs, especially when it comes to things like leash reactivity or separation anxiety, which I’ve personally dealt with in my own dog and therefore fully understand what goes on with it. My remote work schedule gives me the flexibility to give pets my full attention throughout the day, not just during quick visits or walks.
About: I’ve taken care of pets of ever kind since I was young. Neighbors and friends have relied on me to walk feed and bathe their pets. I’m currently taking care of my daughter and family. So I have plenty of time to play with your pups. I’m available for boarding on weekdays and weekends. I have a fenced yard where your fur baby can play safely. I’m comfortable crating dogs if needed, and I also offer in-home pet care.
About: Hi! My name is Neil D. Wallace and I love dogs. Dogs make me happy. My favorite dogs are Blue Staffies and Pugs. I have most experience walking Doodles, Pitbulls, Huskies and Chihuahas. I also communicate everything, and promise an open book attitude with owners. All hours until i book my next show. This is just a side hustle when demand is low in the acting world, which will change, with my contribution. No matter what dog I take care of, there is always one thing in common. The owner is always right. Even if I think something might work better for the pups, the owner knows best; open communication is key.

About: I’ve been caring for pets my whole life but really started about 5 years ago. When I was young I would help neighbors, friends, and family with their pets and loved it. From daily walks and feeding to baths and playtime, I treat every pet like my own. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I am understanding that some pets may need extra patience or a lot of activity for a high-energy and playful pup. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved. I’m a graduate student with evening classes only, so I am free throughout the day to give your pets plenty of attention, care, and love! I am able to take pets on long walks in various different areas depending on breed and energy levels for the pet to ensure they have a positive experience!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Russell Gardens
Michelle was wonderful with our two senior rescue dogs! From the very first visit, it was clear she was experienced and comfortable caring for older dogs with different needs. She instinctively knew how to approach them, which immediately put us at ease. We were so impressed after the first visit that we booked her for consecutive walks and weekend drop-in visits. Throughout every visit, Michelle kept us well informed with detailed updates about how the dogs were doing, their walks, meals, potty breaks, and overall behavior. She also shared great photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When we returned home, the biggest sign of how well she had cared for them was how calm, happy, and settled they were. Everything was just as we had left it, and it was obvious they had been well looked after. Michelle is reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets.

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 Russell Gardens. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
