“Carolyn was so easy to communicate with and did a great job walking both of my frenchies. She even made sure that they had water after their walk. I will be reaching out to Carolyn in the near future.”


“Isabella was fantastic with our dog, Goose. She was punctual, and sent detailed updates with photos during each walk. Goose was happy and tuckered out after every walk; Isabella’s attentive approach with Goose made us feel at ease. We are so glad we found her and we will definitely book her again!”


“Catherine was so communicative and really eased my worries as I was a first time rover customer. I will absolutely look to her again for my pet needs!”


“Saved the day with a last minute walk!”


“Candice was so communicative and made me feel at ease before she even arrived at the house. This was my first time using Rover and first time having someone walk Mocha without a previous introduction. It was so nice to know that Mocha was in good hands and Candice went above and beyond in making sure she got a good walk in and had time to pee/poop. I'm so appreciative of Candice and would recommend her to anyone!”


About: Hi, I’m Arieh — a lifelong animal lover and your pet’s next favorite human! With a background as a strength & conditioning coach, I’m fully equipped to handle dogs of all sizes — from tiny terriers to giant breeds with serious pull-power. But my real strength? Loving care. I grew up surrounded by pets — dogs, ferrets, goats, birds, fish — and I bring years of hands-on experience to every animal I meet. I’m especially experienced with senior pets, puppies, and pets facing health challenges, including giving medications and providing extra patience and TLC. Plus, as an amateur photographer, I’ll keep you updated with adorable, high-quality photos — because you shouldn’t have to miss a single happy tail wag or goofy smile while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and safety are my top priorities. I can’t wait to meet your furry (or feathered!) family member! Pet care fits beautifully into my daily life! I run my own e-commerce business and work remotely, which means I set my own schedule and have the flexibility to adjust my days around pet care — including accommodating last-minute bookings. I’m currently single and love staying active, so taking pets on walks or spending time with them throughout the day feels like a natural, joyful part of my routine. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long walk, or some quality cuddle time, I’m happy to make sure your pet’s needs are met with love and attention. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. When I care for pets in your home, I do everything I can to maintain their normal routine — from feeding schedules to walk times, play, and rest — so they feel secure and at ease while you’re away. I’m respectful of your space, tidy, and always leave things as I found them (or better!). I pay close attention to each pet’s unique needs, whether that means giving medication, monitoring energy levels, or offering extra patience and affection for senior pets or puppies. You can expect regular updates and photos from me, so you never have to wonder how your furry family member is doing.

“Relieved I found someone who is prompt with responding, their communication is on point, and my dog loves her. Thank you Hayley for being there for Chops, it does a lot for me knowing he’s spending time with you when I’m away”


“Andre is always reliable and easy to interact with. He’s great at handling our 82 lb dog who likes to pull when he gets excited. We are always at ease knowing Andre is out walking our dog when we are far from home.”


“Craig was extremely attentive to my aging pup and offered excellent communications daily that put my mind at ease while I was away on vacation.”


About: From furry to feathered, I've been surrounded by animals my entire life, nurturing a deep understanding and unwavering passion for their well-being. Growing up with cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, fish, and rabbits has instilled in me a lifelong commitment to providing exceptional care for all creatures, great and small. This isn't just a job for me; it's a continuation of a lifelong dedication. What truly sets me apart is my experience with special needs animals. My own beloved dog, Charli, battled a severe form of epilepsy, requiring meticulous management through specialized diets, precise medication administration (oral and nasal), diapering and attentive seizure care, including mobility assistance with a supportive sling. This personal journey has equipped me with invaluable skills and a profound empathy for animals facing health challenges. I also have experience administering oral medication to rabbits, syringe feeding, and even IV hydration. Beyond my personal experience, I actively volunteer at SNARR, a special needs rescue in Brewster, where I walk and socialize dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I'm also currently pursuing my dog training certification, further enhancing my ability to understand and address canine behavior. Animals have always been an integral part of my life, and their well-being is my utmost priority. When you entrust your pet to my care, you can rest assured they will be treated with the same love, attention, and dedication I would give my own. Animal care and welfare is my full time job, so I can easily adapt to your pet's unique needs and provide personalized care. I am Pet CPR and First Aid Certified. When pets stay with me, they become part of our family! My home offers a comfortable and safe environment, with a large, partially fenced yard (full fencing is in progress!) where they can enjoy supervised playtime. Inside, I have cozy beds and ample space for crating if needed. I understand that every pet is unique, so I'll tailor my schedule to perfectly match your pet's exercise, feeding, and medication needs. We're fortunate to live in an area with plenty of beautiful walking and hiking trails, perfect for exploring with energetic pups. My two children, ages 8 and 11, are animal lovers who understand the importance of respecting individual needs and temperaments. They're also fantastic playmates for dogs who enjoy a good romp! Finally, we have a house rabbit who will always be kept separate from any visiting animals, ensuring everyone's safety and comfort.

“Kate is caring and very responsive!”


About: I have worked with guiding eyes for the blind foster puppies and in a dog daycare. I love dogs and am comfortable with any size, age or breed. I am happy to bring tail wags to your dogs when you need help! I am currently working remotely and part time so have a very flexible schedule. I am around most days and can be free morning, afternoon or evening! I aim to provide safe care to all pets. I am happy to walk on or off leash. I have no other pets in the home so all my attention will go to yours!

About: I currently have two dogs one is 4yrs old and the other a puppy. I also go to the dog park daily so I am always meeting and spending time with other types of dogs. I will be working a camp counselor job over the summer. This allows me the flexibility to pet sit overnight, and to work during weekends. I can also let dogs out before my shift and immediately after. To ensure safety I will make sure to know all the safety measures in your home and maintain these measures while you are away. Personally at my home we have a fenced in yard and before letting my dogs out I makes sure all the gates are locked we also make sure all doors to bedrooms are closed before leaving to ensure our dogs do not eat anything that could harm them.

About: -I love dogs, cats & birds -I love to run and be active -I had dogs as pets my whole life - I remember how anxious it made me to leave my dogs with boarding kennels so I am empathetic to pet owners -I will treat your dog as if it were my own -Dogs always put a smile on my face -I respect all creatures and rules you place as a pet owner I am very flexible with my schedule, and I recognize that dogs need exercise, affection and interaction to thrive. They are an extension of family. I fully respect and abide by rules set forth by dog owners and want YOU the dog owner to know your dog is in very capable hands :-)
