Candice was truly the best with Harley. Harley warmed up to her very fast and now Harley has a forever friend. We feel very comfortable with Candice and will 100% use her again.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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.

Super reliable and helpful! Not only did send great pics of my cat but also cleaned up after a hairball incident and removed my smoke alarm because it began chirping from low battery. Will definitely reach out to Sylvia for all future cat sitting needs

David helped me out last minute when another sitter canceled on me! He was great and very patient with mocha, as she took her time warming up lol. He showed up everyday on time, was very communicative in making sure mocha’s needs were met. Would recommend booking David for your fur babies!

Devon was a wonderful cat-sitter. She was timely for every check in and made sure to send me thorough updates about my cat’s eating habits and his mood. She also gave him plenty of exercise and sent me pictures after every visit. Walter (my cat) loved her! I will definitely be re-booking her services!

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!

Just the best! Went above and beyond, evident that Sarah absolutely adores animals in both her attitude and care given. Also happy to fulfil little requests to satisfy our anxious selves on account of our little guy having recently had a medical procedure. Really can't recommend Sarah enough, my only worry would be that she's so good your pet might prefer Sarah to you!

Jasmine could not have been a better fit for our two playful cats. They can be a little shy but LOVED Jasmine; you can tell she has good experience with taking care of animals. Our boys got lots of love and attention with her. (She even kindly took in a few misc packages of ours.) We especially loved her thorough pictures and updates to give us peace of mind as we were away. Great communication too.

About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with my family dogs Daisy the Shih Tzu for 14 great years, and caring for her taught me everything from daily routines to understanding her weird little quirks that make each dog unique. Since then, I’ve become the go‑to dog sitter for my friends, regularly helping with walks and overnight stays. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I’m patient, attentive, and know the importance of taking care of your dog as if it was my own. Your pet’s comfort and routine matter to me, and I’m committed to giving them the same love and attention they expect at home. I am currently working a flexible hybrid job in Tribeca and live in Astoria. I am flexible in terms of being near either location and more throughout the week. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a clean, well‑organized 1‑bedroom apartment (about 500 sq ft), which creates a calm, controlled, and quiet environment that’s perfect for dogs who thrive on consistency and attention. My apartment is a short walk from multiple parks, so your dog will have plenty of space to play. The space is fully pet‑proofed and there is plenty of space for your dog’s bed/crate.

About: Hi! I’m a graduate student in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a lifelong dog lover based in Astoria. I provide reliable, attentive dog walking and drop-in care with a focus on safety, structure, and understanding canine behavior. I grew up around dogs and am comfortable with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I have experience caring for energetic puppies, large breeds, seniors, and dogs who may be shy or reactive on leash. I grew up with a diabetic lab that I was regularly entrusted to provide insulin to, and under my care, he lived for an additional 5 years following his diabetes diagnosis. My background in counseling has given me a strong awareness of body language and stress signals, which I apply when working with animals. Every dog communicates, and my job is to pay attention. On walks, I prioritize: • Safe leash handling • Positive reinforcement and consistency • Awareness of surroundings and other dogs • Hydration and weather-appropriate pacing For drop-ins, I can provide feeding, fresh water, medication (if needed), playtime, and lots of updates so you feel completely at ease while you're away. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide them with the patience, structure, and genuine care they deserve. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! As a graduate student with a flexible but structured schedule, I intentionally build pet care into my daily routine. I plan my academic work in blocks, which allows me to dedicate focused, reliable time to dog walking and drop-in visits throughout the week. Because I manage my schedule carefully, I’m able to be punctual, consistent, and fully present during each visit. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in between obligations — it’s something I deliberately plan for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining the pet’s normal routine to minimize stress and disruption. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions carefully and consistently. On walks, I use secure leash handling, stay alert to surroundings, and avoid unnecessary risks (such as crowded dog areas if a dog is reactive or nervous). I pay close attention to body language and energy levels to adjust pace and activity appropriately. During drop-in visits, I ensure fresh water, feeding as instructed, enrichment or playtime, and a quick visual check of the home environment before leaving. I always double-check doors, crates, and gates to make sure everything is secure. I also provide clear updates and photos so owners feel confident and informed while they’re away. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel calm, safe, and well cared for.

About: I have had a dog in my life since the day I was born and they are my absolute favorite pets. I love playing with them and giving them all the belly rubs they could possibly want. I have a shepherd mix named Trout, who I adopted, and he is the friendliest most playful dog ever. If you would like to board your pup with us he would be sure to be the best buddy. I have experience handling both small and large dogs, elderly dogs, and dogs that require medicine. I ask that clients inform me of any routines the dog may need to follow so that I can give them the best care possible without disrupting the status quo. Let me help you to give your dog all the attention they deserve!! I work at an aerial studio and bartend a few evenings a week. I am never gone for more than 6hrs at a time (and that is usually in the evening), and I am never more than 30min away from home. I can provide walks and/or yard playtime every 4-6hrs. I have one large dog crate if your dog needs to be crated when I leave the house. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your pup to run and play. I live on the 2nd floor so that can be harder for elderly dogs or dogs with stair issues.

About: Hi there! I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I had my own dog for 15 amazing years and she was truly my baby. I loved spoiling her and making sure she always felt safe and happy. That’s exactly the kind of care I bring to every pet I watch! I offer pet sitting and dog walking, including walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of cuddles (if they’re into that!). I’m happy to stick to your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away. I work from home three days a week, which means I have plenty of time to give your pet attention throughout the day. No long stretches alone. I also don’t have any pets right now, so your furry friend will have a calm, cozy space all to themselves. I care for pets by keeping their routine as consistent and stress free as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, clean environment where they get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and affection. Since I don’t have other pets, they’ll have a quiet space all to themselves. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific needs, so your pet stays comfortable and secure. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and communication, and I’m always attentive to making sure your pet feels happy, relaxed, and well cared for.

Bri was fantastic watching our cat Coco while we were away in Florida! Coco is usually quite shy with strangers, but Bri was incredibly patient with her and by day 2 of our trip Coco had already come out of her shell and was begging Bri for belly rubs! Bri went above and beyond by even cleaning Coco’s dishes, and shared great photos during her visits! We are so happy we found a reliable and communicative sitter and will definitely be using Bri again! :)
