“John was the perfect choice to watch my sweet Barney while I was on a vacation. He is a true dog lover and treated Barney as his own. I will definitely be leaving my pup in his care when i travel in the future. So Thankful to have found John!”
“Bailey has been truly a blessing. Her dog, Duke, is an absolute gentleman and has become my dog’s bestie! Bailey is highly communicative, thoughtful, and above all else, treats my dog like her own. I am so grateful to have found Bailey! I will absolutely be rebooking!”
“Adam was awesome. Charlie and I met Adam before his stay. Adam was communicative, flexible and attentive. I highly recommend Adam to watch your fur baby and I will be using Adam when I need him to watch Charlie again.”
“Eleanor was amazing! She treated Mango like her own and was incredibly easy to communicate with. He had a wonderful stay at her apartment. Would absolutely recommend.”
“Matthew is INCREDIBLE!!! We had several cancelled/delayed flights and kept pushing back our pick up time for our pup. He was truly a pleasure to work with and very flexible. Couldn’t recommend enough.”
“Our dog, Norman, clearly loved his stay with Nicole! We received lots of updates and he was happy and healthy while we were away. Will definitely be rebooking next time.”
“Hands down, Angie is the best dog sitter! I had to be away from my dog Benji for 24 long days, which in general, it's hard to be away from our fur babies for any length of time, but I knew he would be in great hands with Angie and put any worries I had at ease. She kept me updated daily with videos and pictures (she is an amazing photographer btw) she gave him lots of cuddles, care and treats and even taught him some new really cool tricks! She walked him daily, followed my instructions of his everyday routines and took him to really cool places in the city and even the beach! She even helped me by taking him to his grooming appointment! He really had the best time with Angie and I know he felt super loved and got spoiled the whole time. I would highly recommend Angie to anyone that needs a sitter for their fur baby. She really cares about her client's and their dogs and it shows! I will definitely be using Angie for future pet-sitting needs.”
“It has been a long time since I've had to board my pets with someone I didn't know. It is hard enough to leave our fur babies in the care of a friend or family member, but it is an more nerve-wracking experience to place them into the care of a stranger. Michael assuaged those fears before we even met him! He asked all the right questions about our boy's needs from the get-go (he's a large senior dog with arthritis) and gave me frequent updates and pictures of how he was doing. He walked our boy judiciously and gave him all of his food and medications just as we would. He was wonderful. It was such a relief knowing that our boy was in such capable, caring hands. We're in town for work but are lucky enough to have weekends off. We picked our boy up today and he looked so happy and healthy. Michael did such a great job that we're going to utilize his services again next week. I just can't say enough good things about him.”
“Pamela was an absolute pleasure! She took great care of my dog and sent lots of photos and updates. Very responsive and friendly. I would highly recommend Pamela for your dog sitting needs!”
“Had a great experience with Angela! I was super nervous because my pup is a bit reactive and this was our first time boarding with her but she settled in with Angela super quickly and left me without worry!”
“Giovannantonio and his wife were so great with Honey!! She was very well taken care of and they sent me updates throughout my puppy’s stay. They took care of Honey like their own puppy! I really appreciate it. Looking forward to booking again! Thank you so much!!”
About: I'm currently the owner of an Italian Greyhound [4 years old] and I have owned, cared for, and been around dogs and cats my entire life. As a pet owner, I am very familiar with all that entails - walks, playtime, grooming, distribution of medication, etc. I raised my dog from a puppy, so I have experience with young dogs who need attention, structure, and training. Our home is a quiet, calm place as my Iggie spends a fair amount of time in her bed sleeping. :) She is friendly with dogs and cats. I work from home most of the time and I have some flexibility in my schedule. I am available for doggy day care and overnights. My dog is sweet, friendly, and gets along with everyone. She is thrilled when other dogs visit our home. We have lots of toys and access to several parks, though I don't take my dog to "dog parks". I have the ability to crate and pen my dog/your dog if necessary.
“Eric took great care of our rescue dog, Yoshi, for the weekend. Yoshi is a rescue with severe separation anxiety and a fear of strangers. Eric has a relaxed and confident demeanor that worked well with our dog, and also sent us lots of pictures and informative updates (what they were doing, how Yoshi's health was regarding a recent upset stomach he was recovering from). He's also a walker so I wasn't worried about Yoshi getting enough exercise. We look forward to booking Eric again!”
“We left our puppy for 2 nights with Laura. She was very gentle and kind with him and his nervous needs. Laura sent regular photo and video updates for us and was quick to respond to any messages I sent to her. Milo came back happy and we will definitely use them again. Thank you guys so much for taking such good care of Milo.”
“We left our yorkie, Scoop, with Hawthorne and Wei and truly could not have felt calmer!! We got so many updates and pictures that made us feel at ease while we were out of town. Thank you!!!!!”
“It's very obvious that Jisu loves dogs and she did a great job taking care of Honey! I loved the cute photos she sent. My mind was completely at ease while traveling. I'd definitely recommend her!”
“Diane was the best dog sitter I’ve ever worked with. She was super easy to contact and communicate with, sending periodic updates of how my dog was doing, along with the cutest pictures. She is a natural with dogs and my little guy warmed up to her almost instantly. We recommend Diane to everyone and will definitely be hiring her again for future stays! Thank you Diane!”
“Summer was amazing! Very tentative, detail oriented dog sitter, and Kylo already misses her. She was great at providing updates and taking good care over an extended stay!! Summer will be a go-to dogsitter and adopted aunt of Kylo’s!”
“Bridget was absolutely amazing with my fur baby. We were on a business trip and my pup was having a hard time adjusting to the hotel and a new environment. Bridget was able to give him a comfortable place to stay for a couple of days, and he felt right at home. I would highly recommend Bridget. She was a life saver during my trip to the city.”
“Betty had the best best time with Kiersten and Casey! They communicate quickly and clearly and send lots of photos and updates- which I really appreciated receiving. Betty is shy with new people but she seemed right at home with Kiersten and Casey. Would one thousand percent book them again!”
Astoria-Long Island City dog parents share their Rover experiences
From our first meeting, our dog Hope was immediately drawn to Maria's warm and sweet energy! And right away we felt at ease knowing we were leaving her in such good hands. We received daily photos and updates while we were away and it was very clear that Hope was having the best time! No question, we would highly recommend reaching out to Maria the next time you need someone to take care of your fur baby! 10/10 She is wonderful!
Giovannantonio and his wife were so kind and took great care of our beagle Elsie! It sounded like she really loved playing with their pup Eliot, and she came back to our home very relaxed. Giovannantonio was always super responsive and communicative throughout the process. We would happily leave Elsie in their care in the future!
Sasha and Cathy always do the best job taking care of our very anxious pup! Though there are many dog sitters in our neighborhood, we go out of our way to use them because we trust them fully to handle all of his special needs. We can tell Oscar feels comfortable with them too - a big deal for our selective dog!
Anxhela was stellar. She was flexible when our travel plans didn’t go according to plan, communicative, friendly, and actively listened and applied all of our requests for taking care of our dogs. We got so many photos. Plus, she took care of our dogs in the aftermath of one of the worst snow storms to hit NYC and did so pleasantly.
Carla was wonderful with my dog Beau. She was super communicative and sent lots of photo updates, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It was clear he was genuinely cared for and loved, not just watched. He came home well rested, happy, and healthy - the best sign he felt safe and comfortable with her. I’d absolutely trust her with Beau again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, responsible
Gigi and Eddie were incredible hosts of Arthur over this past weekend. They pivoted to picking him up at my apartment when I couldn’t drop him off before a trip and communicated with me throughout the weekend. I feel very comfortable engaging with them again on my next out of town trip. Thank you both…
OMG, Eleanor took such amazing care of our little dude, Moose. He could not have been cared for better. She was thoughtful about his needs and had great humor about how bossy he can be for a 7lb dog. We cannot recommend her enough. We now have our go-to sitter on the Upper East Side! Thank you for talking such care of Moose, Eleanor!
Robert was very responsive and thoughtful to our request to board Wally (for the first time). He met with us beforehand and showed us the space to help ease our anxiety. Robert was responsive throughout Wally's stay. Wally returned happy and well cared for. Robert is a great choice if your pup needs someone around during the day.
