“So lovely to have Candice watch our little guy. She gives great notes and catches some funny faces in the photos she takes for the check-in reports. We’re hooked. Respectful and diligent and all around kind person.”
About: Hi there! I’m Barbara, a devoted animal lover and proud pet mom to two wonderful companions: Frida, an energetic brown tabby; Vesper, a sweet and cuddly grey cat. I live in Astoria and have a deep appreciation for the trust and care it takes to look after someone’s beloved pet. With a 9-5 work schedule Monday through Friday, I’m available for evening and weekend care. Whether it’s a relaxed stroll, playful interaction, or simply offering companionship I ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. Creating a secure and trusting environment is my top priority, and I pride myself on being attentive and proactive in meeting each pet’s unique needs. I’m experienced with safely crating pets, administering medication as needed, adhering to vet-recommended diets, and providing engaging playtime both indoors and outdoors. Every pet is unique, and I take the time to understand and accommodate their individual needs.
“Huge thanks to Bailey for taking on a last minute drop in request! Our dog can be very anxious so very appreciative of her being accommodating our requests for his care.”
“Joy took exceptional care of our little baby Capri! She gave us daily updates and pictures that were so cute and reassured us that our fur baby was very well taken care of! Her kind demeanor and experience with pets was quite evident and I could not recommend her enough! We’ll be using her any time we need a cat sitter in the future 😺”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover & grew up with both a cat and a dog, so I know how to care for pets with different personalities and needs. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or just making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away, I’m here to provide reliable, attentive care like they’re part of my own family! I work full-time on a hybrid schedule, which gives me flexibility throughout the week. I’m typically available for evening visits on weekdays and have open availability on weekends. I’ll always make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need, even with a busy schedule! I make sure pets feel at home with lots of love, playtime, and sticking to their routine. I have a turf balcony for quick potty breaks and fresh air, and I’m all about keeping them comfy and cared for while you’re away.
“Couldn’t recommend Eileen enough! She sent very thorough pics to show June was taken care of. Will be booking Eileen again next time I am out of town!”
“Katerina was amazing with my two kitties! I was nervous leaving them for the first time but she made sure to give me many pictures each day and kept me updated! she also helped to clean up my apartment a bit when they knocked over some things or threw up. I really appreciated her efforts”
“Karalyn did a great job keeping me updated while I was away. My cat is very shy, so it was nice to see pictures of her out of her hiding spot and getting more comfortable with strangers.”
“Our cat Dewey was in great hands with Devon, who did drop-in visits over a few days. Devon was communicative and gave us a lot of confidence that Dewey was being well looked after: highly recommend her as a sitter!”
“Kiana is fantastic! Conscientious, thorough and caring! My shy kitty warmed up to her immediately and he was calm and relaxed when we returned. I appreciated all the many pictures and especially her detailed visit notes so I could enjoy my time away knowing Buddy was in great hands. Highly recommend!!”
“Tara was terrific! Super fast communication, on-time, followed instructions down to every last detail, and was very attentive to our pup. I’d recommend Tara to anybody, and we will absolutely use her again in the future.”
“Hayley was incredibly reliable, arriving on time and ensuring Tory’s needs were met. She showed exceptional attentiveness, making sure Tory is given plenty of attention and playtime. Most importantly, Hayley demonstrated genuine care and affection towards my furry friend, providing me with peace of mind during my absence. Thank you for accepting my last minute request. We’ll definitely reach out again for future needs. :)”
“Asael was amazing at keeping us in the loop with our cats! He was thorough with the reports, pictures, and videos. We felt very at ease having him caring for the kitties, especially since he took extra steps to ensure they all were comfortable and got treats. Will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Kaili did a fantastic job checking on my two young cats. She was able to win Monte over with a treat. She made sure she knew where everything was that they needed and asked great questions about their behavior.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/5 This was my first experience using Rover and I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better than Eleni. She was incredibly flexible with timing, super kind, and always kept me updated with photos and videos. She consistently made sure Max ate, went potty, and felt comfortable, she truly went above and beyond in every way. She even taught him new tricks and helped with training, which I wasn’t expecting at all. Max was always happy, calm, and tired (in the best way!) after spending time with her. I’m extremely grateful for all her help. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who genuinely cares about your pet as if it were her own.”
“Erin took amazing care of my kitties, making sure to play and cuddle with them while I was away. From the photos she shared each visit, they clearly appreciated the attention and most tellingly, they were relaxed and happy when I arrived home after a week, which means her visits really calmed them. She kept their litter and food area clean too! I’m so grateful for and happy with her care.”
“This was our second time booking with Sylvia and we still can’t recommend her enough! We had some adjustments to our cat’s care routine and Sylvia was so accommodating and kind to ensure his needs were met - all in addition to the thoughtful notes and pictures she provides with each visit!”
“Jisu went above and beyond!! She sent pictures every day and followed our instructions to a t. She also cleaned up the cats vomit and other messes. She clearly really loves animals and really cares about her work! I couldn’t recommend her more highly!!!”

Sandy was SUCH a great caretaker for Theo. She provided detailed updates and ample photos and treated Theo like her own. I could tell he quickly bonded with her & she went over and above to make him (and me) comfortable and happy. Will definitely work with her again!
Madeleine took such wonderful care of our cat while we were out of town! She was responsive and very understanding of all of his needs! With an older cat, it gives us a lot of comfort knowing that Madeleine is there to make sure he is ok when we aren't around. She sent us daily updates and pictures to keep us aware of how he was doing! We'll definitely be booking her in the future!
Chloe is clearly very experienced working with animals. She watched our cat for 2 weeks and gained the cat’s trust very quickly. It gave us peace of mind while we were away knowing our pet was in caring hands. Chloe provided great updates and photos while also being very responsive. She came in the clutch on short notice to watch our cat. We will definitely be in touch with Chloe for future visits!
Big thanks to Karalyn for giving me peace of mind when I have to travel away from my cats. Updates and pics were perfect and thank you for keeping them cool, looking good with the brushing and keeping us up to date on my elusive void cat when photos were not possible. ❤️
First time using Rover and we couldn’t be happier with Monica and the care our cats received! From the very first visit, it was clear how much she genuinely loved cats. Monica kept us updated with daily photos (which looked like professional shots at times!) and messages throughout, so we never had to worry while we were away. The cats warmed up to her and really enjoyed all the play time she gave them. Our place was left incredibly tidy when we got home, which was greatly appreciated after being away for a week. We’ll absolutely be booking Monica again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring cat sitter. Thank you Monica!
Sarah was so great with our two kitties! One takes a pill twice a day and Sarah was willing to come by to administer both times for multiple days. She easily figured out tricks to get our stubborn kitty to take her meds even when she didn’t want to, and our other shy kitty was quickly comfortable enough to come out of her hiding spot for food and pets. Highly recommend!
Elizabeth’s been amazing with our kitty Pepper! She took great care of her and communicated with us every day with an extensive update and lots of pictures. She’s clearly a cat lover and has become our little Pepper’s first friend (outside of us). Would definitely recommend Elizabeth to look after your cat(s).
Wonderful pet sitter! She provided frequent updates and photos throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my pet was well cared for, happy, and loved while I was away. Reliable, communicative, and thoughtful—I would absolutely book with her again.
This was Victoria's second time sitting for me and she was just as amazing as the first time! I highly recommend her. She is very thorough and on top of things. It's hard for me to leave my cats when I go on vacation and having her as my sitter put me at ease.
