“Stephanie is the BEST! This was my first time leaving my dog with anyone long term, and she made me feel so at ease, sending me lots of updates. My dog was so calm and comfortable with her from the start. And he was recovering from a medical treatment, so she took extra special care of him, giving him his medicine and keeping him calm. I would definitely recommend her, and we can't wait to have her stay again! Thanks Stephanie!”

“Amanda took great care of my dog while I was out of town. She was always prompt in responding to messages and sent pictures of my dog and updates to let me know how she was doing.”

“Jessica is now our go to for our dogs and is great with them, even with our somewhat difficult Emmy😬 Her communication is top notch and she is very proactive in making sure every detail is coordinated.”

“Erin did a fantastic job looking after my mini schnauzer Dolly. I was very nervous about leaving Dolly with a stranger for the first time but Erin made me feel very at ease and kept me updated on Dolly. She is incredibly attentive and dogs clearly love her as much as she loves them. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!!”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Avary. From the second we connected until we parted ways, Avary stood out as exemplary. Communication was beyond what could be expected, and the thoughtfulness, care, consideration, respect… are just a few words that now come to mind thinking about this experience. I’ve never met anyone — especially through Rover — who had seemingly gone above and beyond to match an existing routine. The true tell was that my dog was willing to take Avary on our USUAL hour-long night walk; something he highly protects. It was so clear that he was completely comfortable after less than a day and was happy to be able to stick to his pretty standard routine because of how well Avary learned and stuck to it too. Would 100% ask back again (and will)!!!”

About: I have a lifetime of experience around dogs and cats. I grew up with a lot of animals, so I’ve spent most of my life caring for them. I am the go to person with family and friends to care for their pets when they are busy, and I have experience with pets of all ages and needs. My excitement and love for animals is what sets me apart from others, as I could spend all day playing with animals. I make sure they are comfortable and happy, could pet them for hours, and am attentive to their every need. I have fostered both dogs and cats in my home many times, and know how to make sure they can be comfortable in their new environment. I currently don’t work, so I am available 24/7 for your pet care needs! I am available for same day booking and can accommodate any last minute requests. Out of the home, I make sure that I am attentive to any outside factors such as other dogs approaching them, any distractions that could cause them stress or fear, and cars/other passerbys. Taking walks are one of my favorite pastimes, so I’m happy to keep walking to your pet’s content! Inside the home, I first make sure I ask for and understand any instructions from the owner. I ask about any behavior patterns to best understand your pet and what might be considered strange or concerning. I make sure your pet is well entertained and happy. I can play with them, teach them new tricks, or even give them a good belly rub!
“Megan was wonderful with my dog! She was very communicative, timely, and took great care of my guy who is recovering from a back injury. Highly recommend her!”

About: Hi! I’m Izzy. I am an NYC native and animal enthusiast! My experience specifically lies in caring for senior cats/dogs, and I am currently learning the ins and outs of medicine administration in my free time to supplement this. I have cared for family, friends’, and clients’ pets ranging from 5-14 years old! I am working on updating my Red Cross Animal First Aid certification as well. If you want to arrange a meet & greet, I’d love to chat! I’m a full-time receptionist, but can definitely be flexible around my day job schedule with proper notice! I love taking care of pets as it’s a complete pivot from my normal monotony, and it feeds into my love of animals. I provide gentle, engaged care for pets, focused on learning specifically about each pet’s unique personality and needs. All pets deserve the world, and I just want to make sure they’re comfortable and happy! For any housesitting requests, I’ll ask plenty of questions during the M&G to ensure I’m taking care of your home the way you want me to, as well.
“book ren if you can! she was super super amazing with my socially problematic dog who has a biting history. ren did a great job reading his body language and knowing when to give him attention and when to give him space. she followed all the instructions i left and i came home to a tired and happy dog.”


“Jen took such great care of our pups. She paid close attention to all of my concerns and she remembered the weird idiosyncrasies about both dogs. Jen seemed to give them all of the attention and love we could’ve asked for. So glad we found her!”
“Dylan was very communicative and was super great with our two pups, Petey and Polly. They warmed up to her right away and seemed very happy and comfortable in her presence. Dylan has a clear love for animals. Thank you!”

“Teddy was awesome - we got phenomenal daily recaps and frequent communication. We felt super comfortable with Teddy and our pets (including a very unfriendly cat) were thrilled!”

“Olga is fantastic. She not only provided frequent updates and otherwise excellent communication, she also agreed to stay an extra night when my flight home was cancelled at the last minute due to weather. Most importantly, it’s obvious that she loves animals and took joy in spending time with my cat. Cannot recommend her enough!”

“Berenice did such a great job taking care of our puppy and home for 2 weeks, we felt lucky to have found her. She sent pictures every day giving updates on our pup, making us feel at ease for leaving our pup for so long. We will definitely be reaching out again for future trips. Thanks Berry!”

“Jennifer is the kindest, most thorough, professional, and attentive pet sitter we've ever had. Our fur-baby loved her and we will definitely book with her again. Thank you, Jennifer!”

About: Currently have 2 family dogs so I am comfortable with animals and will provide meticulous care for your loved one and home until you return Plenty of availability during weekdays and will do overnight if need be! We can figure out a good time for you based on what fits my schedule! I often play and baby my dogs and want to show tons of love to them! I do the same for other pets I interact with as well!
“Greg has been our go-to sitter for our mini-Aussie. He consistently takes great care of her and our home. Greg sends us a daily update with pictures and lets us know if anything usual happens, and has great judgment in conveying anything that might need our attention without being too passive or alarmist at the same time. Our little girl seems happy and content when we return, so we know she has been well-taken care of during our absence.”
“Chuk is the sweetest, kindest person and took incredible care of my dog. He sent terrific photos and videos while I was away. He also administered meds (better than I can!) and I came home to a super happy, well taken care of and loved dog! If there were more than 5 stars, I would give that. I can't wait for Murray to have another playdate with Chuck!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bay Ridge
Layla was very responsive to all our questions and very communicative throughout her stay. Our cat was clearly so happy and at peace with her! Layla also left the apartment in great shape and was all around a joy to work with — she is clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about animals.

We had such a wonderful experience with Lina. She house sat for us while watching our 10-week-old puppy, and we couldn’t have felt more comfortable leaving him in her care. She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay — sending regular updates, photos, and check-ins that gave us so much peace of mind. Our puppy absolutely adored her and was so comfortable around her from the start, which says a lot at his age. It was clear she was patient, attentive, and genuinely cared about making sure he felt safe, happy, and loved while we were away. We came home to a relaxed, happy puppy and a well cared for home. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

Olga is a wonderful cat sitter. Both of our cats absolutely loved her, which says a lot because they can be very selective with people. She was caring, reliable, attentive, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We came home to two very happy and relaxed cats. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and genuinely caring pet sitter.

Lucy is absolutely fantastic. She was very flexible with her schedule and worked with us when last minute changes happened. She constantly kept us up to date on any issues / concerns and took great care of our kitties. Bonus: she also nursed my basil plant to better health than when I left it! She was able to give our kitty her medicine, manage some territory issues, and gave them both lots of attention. We trust her completely with our space and our precious cats. Our girls love their Aunt Lucy!
