About: I have owned a pet my whole life and I love spending my free time loving on even more dogs! I have worked at 2 boarding and daycare facilities! I have helped with walks, baths, administering medications, and overall pet care! Pet care is part of my daily routine as I have a dog of my own, but I love animals and helping people who need some extra help! I am a dog lover! Whatever your dogs needs I will be happy to comply! I love snuggles, walks, playtime, and hanging out with pups!
“James is very punctual , flexible , and patient. Went on a great walk with our pup .Great first experience with him, our pup raiden seemed happy when we returned!”
About: I’ve grown up and taken care of dogs ever since I was little. I would say I’m knowledgeable on dog training and have a lot of experience with all different types of dogs. I love to walk and pet pups so hopefully we can be good match!! I’m currently working part-time in the afternoon (3-6) so I have lots of free time to check in or walk your pet. I have owned Goldens my entire life so training a high-energy dog is something I’m experienced in. I’m all about creating a safe and enriching environment for dogs, so I’m open to adapting to your pets daily routine.
“Gina has been great, I had Gina come over to walk my Lulu. Prior to Gina taking us on, she came over and met with myself and Lulu, very pleasant young lady, you could tell her love for animals. She has been prompt, as well sending me pics and letting me know how Lulu was putting me at ease, while at work. I made a great choice going with Gina!!”
“Very grateful for Jessica! She has been doing daily walks with my senior dog and giving him lunch while I’m at work. She takes great care of him and it’s so nice to know he’s is in good hands!”
About: Hello I’m Marine I’m a bit new to Rover but that doesn’t reflect my experience. I've been an animal lover for as far back as I can remember, and have cared for my own dogs and cats throughout my life. I have experience dog walking at various shelters, pet sitting, fostering animals, taking my own dog to pet therapy visits at senior centers, and volunteer transporting injured animals to get care through a local response group. I'm familiar with the needs of senior dogs, and feel comfortable administering medication if needed. If you work odd hours or need evening drop in visits or walks I’m your person! There are some weeks I have earlier day time availability as well, it doesn’t hurt to ask. Looking forward to meeting your dog soon! I have reliable transportation to get to you. I look forward to getting to know your dog and making sure they are having fun, getting exercise, and lots of attention! I will take great care to be respectful of your dog and of your home. I look forward to discussing in detail your care instructions and will follow them closely because I like to provide the kind of service I would want for my own pets.
“John was great! Very reliable, came early the first time to meet a get a feel for Trixie’s behavior before her walk. Always on time and very personable. I would hire him again without hesitation. Thanks, John!”
“Angelina is fantastic with Griffey! She is super communicative, punctual, and makes me feel at ease knowing he is in good hands. Love the updates and photos too; it’s clear she really cares. Highly recommend!!”
About: I have been watching my friends’, family’s, and neighbors’ pets for 5+ years now. I offer a “Wow” factor of service that goes beyond the traditional water, food, bathroom routine. When I care for any pet, I take the extra care and time to play and cuddle so your fuzzy friend is never lonely. I make sure to bring my Polaroid camera to take pictures of your pet while you’re away so you never miss a moment and can display your cutie anywhere in the home - completely complimentary! I also have extensive experience with administering medicines like liquids, pills and subcutaneous fluids to differently abled pets. My own cat has needed each of those in the past so I have grown comfortable doing so and take extra care in the practice. My service is exemplary; neighbors who no longer live close to me still call me up to take care of their pets. I can’t wait to take care of yours! I am a primary grades teacher on summer break. This means I have lots of unused patience I typically spend on my little ones to use on taking care of your beloved pets and household, as well as lots of time on my hands to attend to your needs! I care for any pet like they are my pet. As a pet owner myself, it is so hard being away and worrying how they’re doing. When I leave them in others’ care, I would hope they care for my pet like they are their own. I take this philosophy into the homes and lives of others. With extensive practice in child care, pet care and medicine management, and house sitting, I will come to your aid with a lens of empathy and compassion.
“I’m so thankful for My’Anna! She is reliable, kind, and clearly loves caring for animals. She has helped me immensely with being able to walk my pup while I’m at work and has able to navigate challenges with her leash reactivity. She always makes sure to update me if there’s any issues or if everything went perfect. She goes above and beyond whether it be dealing with my neighbors or my building to ensuring my pup is getting a good walk and has water when they come back. It gives me such peace of mind knowing my pup is in such caring hands. I highly recommend My’Anna to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely passionate about dogs.”
“Collette is the greatest dog walker ever! When I was at work in the city, my pup Sonny started to have seizures and continued having seizures until I got back home. She stayed by his side the entire time. She is very compassionate and caring and has been helping me out with dog walking for almost a year now. She is truly the best! Thank you Collette for everything that you do for me.”
About: I am very caring and compassionate for animals and pets. I have a cat of my own named Bruni and he is my best friend. Attentive and reliable pet care is assured with me as your pet sitter! I work as a teacher so my morning and afternoons are busy up until 3:30pm. However, I am available after those hours. I do have days off due to breaks, for example, winter break, where I can be reliable all day during those times. I have a cat of my own that I attend to 24/7. Therefore, I am very familiar with pets’ needs. I will assure you great communication and punctuality.
About: UPDATE JULY 2024, PLEASE READ: If you see that my reply time is incredibly slow, it's because my account was inactive for a while due to my dad being hospitalized. I had to help care for him for a long period of time and I was unable to reply to any messages on Rover. My dad is okay now and I am available for walks and sitting again. I was a dog groomer for almost 2 years. I'm well-trained in animal safety. I care deeply about all animals, so I'll form a bond with your animals. I'm currently unemployed, so I'll have loads of time to provide love for your animals of any kind! Just let me know what you need/what you're looking for! I understand the basics of taking care of dogs, cats and other animals just like most pet sitters. But I also provide what some sitters don't: love! I'm very sweet and I can give your animals great love and care. Plus, I'll provide some pretty amazing photos of them. If anything out of the ordinary does happen, I will do my best to help and I will contact you immediately.
About: Hi! My name is Rebecca. I have three years of professional experience working in a dog and cat boarding facility as a Client and Pet Care Specialist. I’ve also spent time fostering both dogs and cats, which has given me even more experience working with pets of all ages, temperaments, and needs. At home, I’m a proud cat mom to three wonderful kitties! Caring for animals is truly a passion of mine. I love getting to know each dog and cat as an individual and strive to provide personalized care that makes them feel safe, happy, and loved. I offer dog walks and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats to help fit your schedule and keep your pets comfortable at home. Whether it's walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, or quiet companionship, I’ll make sure your furry family member gets the attention they deserve. I work part-time, which allows me a flexible schedule to dedicate quality time to pet care throughout the week. Animals are a huge part of my life, and spending time with them is something I genuinely look forward to. I tailor my care based on each pet's individual needs and routine. In a client’s home, I aim to maintain their normal schedule and environment as much as possible—feeding, walking, playing, and providing comfort just like you would. For drop-in visits, I make sure to give pets attention, enrichment, and any necessary care like medication, litter box cleaning, or tidying up food and water areas. I always approach each visit with patience, warmth, and attention to detail. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or special instructions. I look forward to meeting you and your pets soon! 🐶🐱🐾
About: I am doing some daycare and hosting again, as of May 2023. However, I am only able to take hypo-allergenic dogs at this time. I am always available to dog-sit in your home. Also, I can walk your dog locally (Westchester, Cermak and Wolf area). I am also available to check-in on your dog locally, 7 days a week. I have been on Rover for five years now. Many years of dog-sitting and hosting experience before that. I also like to walk dogs. I have been a member of a dog training club, and my own dogs earned their "Good Citizen" awards. I will work on some basic commands if you would like. I will treat your dog like my own. I respect your style of discipline and will follow your directions exactly. I have plenty of time for play and walks! Love to get out and exercise with your dogs. Love to cuddle on the couch too. Even at home, dogs need supervision. An eye is always out for them. I will go out with your dog into your fenced yard, or walk them. If I am hosting your dog, I go out into my fenced yard with them.

Tamara has been great! Tamara is responsive and trustworthy. She’s flexible with my odd work hours and has been able to make last minute requests work. She does well with my very large dog and he loves spending time with her. I appreciate all her pictures and it’s been a big piece of mind knowing he’s taken care of when I’m at work. Tamara’s very thoughtful and will leave treats for my big guy which he loves! Would highly recommend!
Elizabeth is a wonderful and consistent dog walker. She has been caring for my dog, Lily, for several weeks now and is always timely, communicative, and reliable. Most importantly, she genuinely cares about Lily, and it’s clear the feeling is mutual. Lily absolutely adores her, and I have complete peace of mind knowing she’s in such loving and capable hands.
She is absolutely amazing! She follows instructions perfectly, communicates quickly and clearly, and always prioritizes safety. I really appreciate how she reinforces our dog’s training and handles dogs with so much care and confidence. We trust her completely and feel very lucky to have found her. Highly recommend!
My’Anna has been amazing! From the very start, she was quick to reply to our initial request, which gave us peace of mind that our dog would be taken care of. She’s been incredibly gentle and patient with our dog as well. It’s been great to see how Tamalito grows more comfortable with her- we even catch him waiting by the door for her visits on our cameras!
I can’t recommend Jocelyn enough as a dog walker! She takes such great care of my dog and is always so patient and attentive. I’ve truly noticed a positive difference, my dog is happier, more relaxed, does not pull as much and looks forward to their walks together. It gives me peace of mind knowing my pup is in such caring hands. Jocelyn is reliable, kind, and clearly loves what she does. I’m so grateful to have found her!
