While I currently don't have a pet I have known Rocky for over two decades now. I have run across Rocky many times in DUMBO on his beat walking a variety of dog breeds. I have observed him to be caring and gentle knowing all the quirks and personalities of the pooches under his charge. He's a good guy and I think you'd be making a god choice going with NYDOGSROCK IMO.

New York Dogs Rock was amazing with our older dog Sam. Now with Cassie joining the family they are the only people we would call. Patient and kind to our Cassie who is a bit shy around new people and furry friends. They’ve been a true find. Cassie is so excited when Rock walks through the door. Lots of thanks from us and lots of licks from Cassie too

Rocky is a font of animal empathy and wisdom! My high-need energy- filled Great Dane and my super affectionate cat both love him. Home, Dog and cat sitting while I travel (as well as every day care), is simply something I don’t worry about with Rocky on duty. It’s like having a family member take care of your home and pet. Superlative and loving care.

Rocky is like family and took care of our dog, Murphy, like the pup was his son. For eleven years he was at our home twice a day taking the best care of Murphy. We cannot say enough about Rocky! He is reliable, flexible and loves all of his dogs.

Rocky takes wonderful care of my dog Jackson. He's reliable, loving and jackson waits by the door as he knows when Rocky is coming to get him, so he can walk with his dog pals. I know Jackson is in good hands with Rocky and am so happy I found him!

If you're looking for an alternative to the impersonal dog walking app landscape, Unk Rock (as he's known to all his dog walking clients) is hands down your person! Rocky is reliable, loves his dogs (they seriously become part of his family), and is flexible to meet your schedule. Rocky is thoughtful (he writes the best evening recaps) and, best of all, we know our dog has a great time when she's out with her crew!

Having known Rocky his entire life, I know if his heartfelt compassion for animals. This goes way back to a stray cat that adopted us much to our surprise when we were kids. His gentle nature is readily perceived as animals and humans can relate to his kind hearted nature. I would not hesitate to leave my dog with Rocky anytime.👍👍

My dog Romeo loves his walks with Rocky.
I’m very grateful to have someone like Rocky who really cares about the dogs he walks. He’s very trustworthy, and he has worked for me and other neighbors in my building for over a decade. He also has lots of good advice on how to take care of dogs. Rocky is extremely knowledgeable and reliable and brings a good energy to dogs he walks.

Rocky is a phenomenal dog walker and an integral part of our family. He’s been walking our dog, Canyon, for 5 years and has always been extremely reliable, dedicated and goes above and beyond on a regular basis. Something we always look forward to are his daily email recaps summarizing Canyon’s walks. It’s such a nice touch and something we’ve always appreciated. Canyon loves his “Unk” very much and always looks forward to hanging with him and his crew during the week. I can’t recommend his services enough!

Rocky is so much more than a dog walker - he is a lover of all his dogs and it shows. Mia loves Rocky so much that she almost seems depressed on the weekends when he doesn't come. He sends me text updates on the walk as well as detailed emails about Mia's adventures with her pals. It certainly makes me feel a lot less guilty for leaving her at home. He's hands down the best. Call him today.

Rocky is a fantastic walker. He has been walking my dog for a year now and he is a wonderful guy. I also consider him a friend. Uncle Rock does not call in sick, is very caring and excellent with my dog. A really nice touch is that he write emails in the evening to update you on how the walks went, bathroom status, etc. This is really nice facet of his business, especially if you're traveling for work or having evening plans and want to be updated on how the dog is doing. I whole heartedly endorse Rocky; please contact me if you have additional questions.

Rocky is reliable and friendly. Our dog loved her daily walks. When we first got our puppy, we started out with private walks in order for Rocky to help her learn how to walk on a leash. Then when she got a little older, we switched to group walks. Our pup loved playing with her friends on the group walks. Not only did she get some exercise, but it was also great for socialization.

Rock (Uncle Rock as we call him) has set a new bar for dog walking in NYC. Aside from the fact that our "Remi" is head over tail in love with him, Rock's daily updates tell the most amazing stories about our little girl's day, in a manner that parallels a children's book. He is professional, super-skilled at training canines, enforces all of the key words we use at home, and has instincts that put the dog whisperer to shame. We love him and could not be more grateful to have had Rock enter our lives.

“NY Dogs Rock is hands down the best dog service. They are so much more than dog walking. My dog Sammy has been cared for by their highly trained staff for over 10 years. They help to train him, give advice to his somewhat crazy behaviors, love him like one of their own and even give him insulin shots. They are always there for me when I need a last minute walk or a weekend pet boarding, as well as long term pet boarding. And the staff has become part of my family. Your dog would be lucky to be part of the NY Dogs Rock community.”

“I have been working for ten years at 70 Washington St. in Dumbo as a Concierge. My job is to work with many residents, as this is a big building. Most residents have children and dogs. I also see plenty of dog walkers. NY Dogs Rock! is by far the best as a dog walking company. All of their dog walkers not only handle the dogs with the most professional and personal care, but they are extremely mindful of the residents in the building as well. When entering the building, waiting for elevators and riding the elevators as well – they are always courteous, which is why the dogs they walk are so well behaved.”

“New York Dogs Rock is a fantastic service. My golden retriever has been using them since 2007 and he refuses to consider any other dog walkers. I only get to read about his adventures in the daily reports they text me. He gets to live them. He can’t wait to get started every day.”

“My dogs have been walking daily with NY Dogs Rock! for many years. They are happy customers, and so am I! All of the dog walkers are responsible, friendly, and they truly love dogs. My favorite part of the day is receiving a text from their walker who spares no detail regarding their daily adventures around the neighborhood.”

“I have known one of the owners of NY Dogs Rock all of my life. That’s because he is my brother. Although we live in New Jersey and do not use the dog walking service, our dog Chance has been boarded with NY Dogs Rock. It is very obvious that our dog is well cared for and loved in our absence. I highly recommend NY Dogs Rock for anyone concerned about the care of their pet.”

“Ginger was adopted from a shelter, and we were told she was three. The vet took one look and said no, a year and a half at most. Luckily, we found New York Dogs Rock. Ginger settled into the pack walk, and her temperament improved. I cannot recommend them highly enough.”
