“I can’t recommend Dayan enough as a reliable and caring dog walker. For the past four years, she has been watching over my German Shepherd, Samuel, off and on and he absolutely adores her. Besides my immediate family, Dayan is the only other person Samuel feels fully comfortable with, which speaks volumes about her patience, kindness, and understanding of dogs. Samuel can be a bit particular, but Dayan has always handled him with ease, making sure he feels safe and cared for. Whether it’s a quick walk or a longer stay, I know I can always trust her to keep Samuel happy and comfortable.

“I have to give credit where it’s due! My dog goes nuts when I mention we are going to the sitters house. Apparently he has too much fun there cause by the time we get home he’s to tired to play which is a good thing for a hard working dad that is looking forward to tv binge with his fur pal on the couch. I get constant update pictures of Stoney daily. And they even helped her with her insecurities when meeting née people or other dogs. I can’t complain I don’t trust nobody else with my dog! I highly recommend them for all your pet needs.”

Pearl O.
“I have known Pearl for over 10 years she has been walking my dog bella. I met her as my neighbor and she was always so sweet and helpful. She walked her dogs more than 3 times a day, so one day she asked me if she can take bella with her. Bella always love seeing pearl and playing with her so I said ok. I am disabled so I just use to let bella run in front and use the bathroom, and pearl should pick up the poop for me. So when she asked to walk bella everyday with her dogs I didn’t hesitate to say yes. Ever sense then pearl has been my dog walker and without her I wouldn’t still have my dog. So I am forever grateful and me an bella love her as family. Even now that she moved away she still stops by on weekends to visit us and spend time. She is the best walker you can have because she gives unconditional love.”

Springfield Gardens dog parents share their Rover experiences
I can't thank Aniyah enough for taking such wonderful care of my pups while I was out of town! It gave me so much peace of mind to know they were in such kind, capable hands. The updates, photos, and attention to detail were all fantastic — it was clear my dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I came home to two very content (and well-exercised!) pups. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again in the future. Thank you!! 🐾

First time using Rover and was so nervous having a stranger in my home and with my pet. Yasmeen definitely eased my fears, is sweet, punctual and professional. On our meet and greet my very reactive and protective dog immediately got on his back and asked for belly rubs! Will be using her indefinitely and so happy to have found her. Thank you Yasmeen!

Kemba has been great to work with. I will definitely use her services in the future. She sent daily photos and even gave a heads up when his stool was looser than normal. Her expertise was noted and I felt completely comfortable with her being responsible for my dog while in her care. I was truly at ease on vacation knowing Cairo was in good hands. Thank you Kemba for everything!!
