About: I've had my dog his whole life (17 years) but I've actually been a caretaker for my entire life. I'm the eldest sibling, first grandchild, therefore the oldest of all of my cousins & I have babysat all of them (and their pets) through all stages of young life. I'm used to taking care of animals & kids. I used to volunteer at an animal shelter as a kid in Pennsylvania, and thus far there isn't a single animal that I've come to contact that I don't like! These days, I do a lot of pet & house sitting for my artist friends and family (ranging from just a walk a day to over a week of living with their pets.) I have experience with older animals with medical needs, and I've even taken over for friends who were pet sitting themselves but couldn't handle the difficulties of living in a small space with a large teething puppy. A couple of years ago (right before the pandemic) one of my favorite neighborhood cats brought my to her newborn kittens, and I took it upon myself to feed & house her & the babies until they were ready for adoption (and they're all safe and happy with their individual families). Even the mom eventually got spayed & adopted. I'm a freelance artist, so my schedule varies from week to week. At the moment, I have a lot of freedom, so I'm prepared to take on whatever service(s) are needed of me. I follow instructions very well & always leave homes cleaner than how I entered them. In the past, I've created lists on my phone with furbaby's routines & needs (medical details with images included as an added measure,) as well as sending pictures/videos to their owners while they're out.

“Derricker is amazing. Long walks and even grooming at times. So appreciative of Derricker and the extras as I recover from a fractured ankle. She is amazing and Beau waits by the door for her arrival at times.”

“Essence is so wonderful with my dog Winnie. she goes above and beyond with a smile and a sense of humor. I’m very fortunate that she agreed to walk my pup, who isn’t the easiest to walk. Highly recommend Essence!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the genuine love and attention I’ll give to your friend and companion. Pets are family which means they deserve the very best while you’re away. I want each pet care experience to be safe, happy and comfortable for your pet. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine. I also believe communication is key, so I always keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel completely at ease knowing their pet is in good hands. Pet care fits really well into my weekly routine! I work part-time which leaves me plenty of time on other days and evenings to focus on caring for pets. I love spending that extra time walking, playing, and giving each pet the attention they need. When I take care of pets, I do my best to make them feel completely at home. I stick to their normal routines as best as possible so everything feels familiar like feeding times and walks. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality, whether they’re playful and energetic or calm and cuddly. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, happy, and comfortable, just like they would with their family.

About: Hey! My name is Nikki, I am new to rover but I have been dog walking for a few years now. I started my business on the UES/East Harlem but now that I have moved into the neighborhood I am hoping to meet more furry friends and families through here. If you love seeing cute pups in their element take a look on instagram @ tailsandtrails.nyc My schedule is flexible so it allows me to work around your schedule. If something comes up last minute, short notice work trips, or maybe you just need some time for yourself. I completely understand, I got you covered ! Please feel free to reach out to me anytime if you have any questions I allow them to roam as if they were at their own home, I want them to feel comfortable in the space that they are going to be staying at for a few nights or even for the day.I provide updates and pictures while you’re away so that you can feel at ease.

About: I am available this month for dog sitting and dog walking. I had experience with smaller breeds but will happily care for a bigger dog. I love engaging and playing with dogs of all sizes! I believe playtime is very important for pets. With the added bonus of helping another person who might not have as much time on their hands, or who is unable to walk their beloved pets. Thank you for viewing my profile and considering me. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends. I have an open schedule at the moment. My weekly routine involves the occasional dog walking gig and playing with my cat. My schedule will be open for the foreseeable future. I do not provide at home boarding at the moment. I have a cat of my own and he is not good with other pets.

“Nicole has been taking Zeppo for walks for about a month now and I couldn’t be happier with her. She’s caring and reliable and you could tell how much she loves dogs. I know Zeppo really likes her too!”

“We have been working with Emmanuel for almost 2 years on both regular walks Monday through Friday, emergency walks, and drop-in walks (3xs/day) when out of town. We have a 12-year old Pittie who absolutely adores him, and we trust him with her care. She is dog-reactive, has a heart condition (and now lymphoma), and required meds when we’re away. Emmanuel treated her with so much care and love and almost daily walked her MUCH longer than the 30 minutes we requested. He’s professional and friendly and is just an all around good person. If it weren’t for her costs of her cancer treatment, we’d still be using him. Highly recommend Emmanuel!”

About: Hi I’m Tyshawn, I have a lot of experience with animals. I’ve had pets since I was young and I’ve helped take care of them. I have a 13 year old Morkie named Rocky that I love so dearly. I will treat your baby with so much love and affection as if they were mine. I will take your baby out for a walk 3 times a day like I take mine. I will stick to your routine if you have one. I believe that communication is key. I follow all instructions and I will keep you updated at all times. I also have a flexible schedule during the week and weekend. I live close to parks so your baby will have space to play. Does your dog take any medicine or have any allergies? Does your dog get along with other dogs? Does your dog have behavioral problems that I need to be aware about? Does your dog get scared easily?

About: With a natural kinship for animals, I intuitively gain their trust and make them feel at ease. I genuinely love animals,. My care goes beyond the basics—I go the extra mile to ensure they feel safe, loved, and understood. My schedule is flexible, I am on summer break and am home a great amount of the day. I do step out to go to the gym or the supermarket some days but other than that your pet will have plenty of my attention :) I provide them with all their needs and try to match their normal feeding schedule and walk schedule as closely as possible and treat them with lots of love, genuine care and connection, I also love practicing reiki on pets and helping to regulate their nervous systems

About: I love animals - I have taken care of kittens, old dogs, and everything in between. Having grown up with dogs and cats all my life in Western Massachusetts, I am used to a pet friendly environment and used to treating animals like they’re apart of your family. I work from home in finance with a lot of time to spare! I can provide them a lot of attention and walk them as many times as needed. I try to make each day special for them when they’re in my care. I love to introduce myself and try to get pets to warm up to me while playing. Treats sometimes help depending on the owner’s preference. If they’re in a new environment, I would give them a quick tour and provide them with a place to lie down. After developing trust, a quick walk and some food should solidify that further.

“It was a pleasure working with Jay. He is very polite, professional, and friendly. Roger loved him instantly!”
