“Alexis is amazing! She’s reliable, friendly and kind! My dog, Luna, absolutely loves her. I highly recommend Alexis to anyone looking for a caring dog walker.”
About: I have always had a genuine love for dogs for as long as I can remember. I adopted my own dog when he was only 3 months old from the shelter and have had him for over 10 years now. I have taken care of my friends' and families' pets when they have been away and I love walking and taking care of dogs of every kind; I have a big dog but I have experience with small dogs as well. I have plenty of time to play with your pets, since my work schedule is different every day! On my freer days, I would love to spend more time with your pets, since mine has recently passed away and i want to give another dog some more love! I live right across a big field, the boardwalk/beach, and parks which is ideal for taking your dogs on long walks. The safety and environment of this location are perfect and I would love to take your dogs here/ accommodate any of your dog's needs in an area near you as well!
About: I have been taking care of animals my entire life. I lived on my aunts farm in the summers growing up. I have two loving and playful pups who are like my children! I care for each animal as if they were mine. I’m a teacher and have the summer off— so I have full availability! I’m up at all hours of the day/night because I have a 9 month old as well ;) I will treat your home and your babies as if they are my own! I have had bad experiences with pet sitters and I know how heartbreaking that can be, so I always give 110%
“Durell and Michael are WONDERFUL! Durell walked our 44lb pit mix Winter every morning for me. She was amazing and my Winter loves her so much! Durell showed up with a smile and Winter was excited to go every day. We will DEFINITELY be re-booking Durell and Michael for future walks and maybe even boarding.”
About: I have 11 pets, 5 cats 6 reptiles and also maintain my salt water reef tanks. 1 of the cats is a diabetic and the other has hyperthyroidism and I take very great care of all of the animals. I am currently available any day and at any times. I work from home and on my own schedule so I am very flexible with availability. I have a very large home with a fenced yard and a pool. Some pets I dog sit for have loved a nice swim! And I also enjoy going to the park with the dogs and have plenty of cat posts and obstacles around the house for the cats.
“Mina (Nermina) is very sweet with my dogs. They absolutely look forward to their walks with her. My dogs are both pullers and squirrel crazed but she handles them very well! She is accepting of suggestions like left side walking, a sit at street crossings and walking paths. I am so much stricter on my walks with my dogs- she allows them more freedom to sniff and look. I recommend Mina for your dogs!”
“Paige is truly the best dogwalker. Boba absolutely loves her. She’s reliable and flexible even when we need a last minute schedule change. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

About: I previously worked as a veterinary technician, which gave me hands on experience caring for animals of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m very comfortable handling both healthy pets and those that need extra attention or senior care. I’ve also had pets my entire life, so caring for animals is second nature to me. I’m patient, attentive, and able to quickly understand each pet’s unique needs, whether that’s exercise, medication support, or simply making them feel safe and comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I have three cats and a pitbull at home. I’m flexible and already plan my days around feeding, cleaning, and care. I enjoy making time for walks, visits, and keeping pets comfortable and on schedule. In my home, I care for pets by maintaining a clean, safe, and calm environment, following feeding schedules, and giving consistent attention and affection. I have experience with cats and a pitbull, so I understand different temperaments and energy levels. In a client’s home, I respect their routines, follow all instructions closely, and make sure pets feel comfortable, secure, and cared for while their owners are away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Staten Island
Great experience! She was nice, friendly, and arrived right on time. She clearly knows how to handle large-breed dogs, and both Hershey and Rocky accepted her instantly, which says a lot. She was easy to communicate with throughout the process. I would definitely use her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog walker.
Samantha has gone above and beyond time and time again while caring for and walking my dog, Obi. She is always highly responsive, reliable, and very understanding when it comes to scheduling changes. I’m very selective about who I trust to walk my dog, and I would definitely recommend Sam to any dog owner.
Molly is such a sweet heart who really cares about the animals she is taking care of. She was a life saver for Christmas, she came twice to walk my Callie so I could celebrate with my family. She was prompt for time and handled Callie well. I will definitely being using her again!! Highly recommend her!

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.
