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.

Jenn took amazing care of our little Fig. We are so grateful to have had such a trustworthy, responsible and communicative caretaker to give us true peace of mind while we were away. Would definitely love to use her services again and would recommend her to anyone!

Lisa was excellent! She was a great communicator and super reliable. She went above and beyond by sending us pics of our boy and letting us know how he was doing. Our cat obviously loved her and we will happily have her back.

Christina was a great house/dog sitter! She put in te time to keep Charlie Chi happy and engaged and well-walked, communicated with me to ask about details, sent me photos of the places she visited with Charlie, and was respectful of my home. I wouldn’t hesitate to engage her again.

Dylan was an absolute gem of a sitter. She apartment sat my dog and cat over the holidays and they adored her. We got frequent updates that showed us how happy our pets were, plus she left our apartment just as neat as when we left. We are so glad to have found her!

It was my first time using Rover for my cat and Jaidi was phenomenal! She was super communicative the whole time, sent a bunch of photos, and it was clear that my cat adored her and was so well taken care of. I came home to a spotless apartment and a very happy cat. I’ll definitely be using her for any future pet sitting needs.

About: I’ve always had dogs as a meaningful part of my life even though my current lease doesn’t allow me to have one of my own. For the last six years, I helped take care of a previous partner's dog, including watching him alone for weeks or even a month at a time. He was adopted and mildly reactive, so I learned to be attentive to body language, manage space around triggers, keep walks calm and positive, and make sure they felt safe while still getting plenty of stimulation. I’ve also cared for my sister’s dogs, including a rambunctious, high-energy German shepherd puppy and a mature Australian shepherd, so I’m comfortable with smart, active dogs who need more than a quick walk around the block. I especially love connecting with intelligent dogs who thrive on enrichment, structure, and engagement, whether that means sniffy walks, varied routes, leash games, practicing cues, or just giving them the time and attention they need to feel fulfilled. I recently moved to Brooklyn, and spending time with dogs feels like the best possible way to explore the neighborhood. I enjoy letting dogs sniff, investigate, and set a natural rhythm instead of rushing them through a walk. I work from home three days a week, which also gives me a lot of flexibility for housesitting and daytime care. I’m responsible, communicative, and happy to adapt to your dog’s routine and personality - the more you can tell me about how to show them a good time, the better a job I can do! I also love being around cats, whether they're cuddly or aloof - I'm happy to hang out and keep an eye on them as needed :) I work from home up to 3 days (any days) a week and am very flexible weekends and evenings; I'm happy to discuss how I can meet your needs and match your schedule! I care for pets with attentiveness and respect for their normal routine. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos based on your communication preferences, and I’ll never be unreachable or “off grid” while I’m caring for your fur baby. If your pet has any special instructions, including medications, exercise needs, reactivity, feeding routines, or comfort preferences, I genuinely want to know so I can follow them carefully and consistently. For dogs and social cats, I like to make the time feel like a little local staycation rather than just basic care. When we’re not out walking, exploring, sniffing, or playing, your dog will be welcome to hang out near me, cuddle up, or relax in the same space. As a rule, I won’t leave pets crated, confined or ignored. I’m also very mindful that I’m a guest in your home. I’ll keep things clean, respect your space, and leave minimal traces behind. My goal is to be your peace of mind while you’re away: someone who keeps your pet comfortable, loved, and well cared for until you’re back home. Finally, you don't have to blindly trust me on a whim - I'm happy to do a meet and greet to get to know you and your pets in your space. I want picking me to feel like the perfect choice before you even leave your pets with me :)

Teddy was awesome. Stepped in last minute to save the day when my initial home sit plans fell through and worked around some existing obligations to make it happen. Draco had some special needs and doesn't always take to new people easily, but Teddy was up to the challenge. I got plentiful, cute (and poetic!) updates throughout, and my grumpy, senior, disabled pup seemed to be calm and comfortable the whole time. I came back to a clean home and happy pup - would happily hire Teddy again.

Brianna was such a communicative and attentive dog sitter! Our dog is quite shy and he took to her immediately; she sent regular updates and pictures. She went above and beyond! We usually book house sitters to avoid Fitz having to change his routine—she was so respectful during her time in our home! I actually think it was cleaner than we left it! Thanks so much Brianna

Lukas is AMAZING! First time I have ever entrusted someone who is not family or a friend to watch my dog overnight, and I feel so lucky to have found Lukas. He is reliable, truly loves dogs, understands senior dog needs and their health issues, and sends frequent updates and pictures. My dog had a blast with Lukas and I will certainly continue to work with him when I need someone to look after my dog.

I highly recommend CeeCee for your pet and home sitting needs. We hired her to look after our overly affectionate cat and our quirky pit-mix pup while out of town for 6 days. CeeCee was communicative, sent pictures, and took care of needs as requested, including watering plants. She kept the house tidy, even throwing in a load of wash at the end of her stay. We will definitely be repeat customers for future pet sitting needs.

About: Hi there, I'm Blair - a Brooklyn-based corporate girlie who is excited to care for your dogs and cats! I grew up with Rottweilers my entire life, so big, strong, misunderstood dogs have always felt like home to me. Five years ago I adopted my own dog, Rocket, at 8 weeks old. He's now a 60-pound handful with major reactivity, which means I've learned patience, calm energy, and how to read a dog's stress signals before they escalate. That experience has made me a better, more attentive sitter for every dog, not just the tricky ones. Over the years I've pet sat for many friends' dogs, including an elderly dog who needed extra gentleness, a slower pace, and a lot of attention to comfort. Whether your dog is a easygoing senior, a high-energy young pup, or something in between, I'll treat them like my own. I'm currently making a career shift to spend more time doing what I actually love -being outside, staying active, and caring for animals, and I'm excited to bring that energy (and Rottweiler-honed patience) to your dog or cat. I work full-time Monday through Friday, but I have a flexible setup that works well for pet care. I'm fully remote on Mondays and Fridays, which means I'm home and available throughout the day for check-ins, walks, or drop-in visits. On Tuesday through Thursday, when I'm in the office, my best availability is mornings before work and evenings after — so early walks, feeding, or playtime fit easily into my routine. Weekends I'm wide open and happy to take on longer visits, extended walks, or overnight stays. Pet care isn't something I'm squeezing into a packed schedule. It's something I've built time around because I genuinely want to be outside and active with animals as part of my week. I follow your instructions closely and stick to your pet's existing schedule, rather than trying to impose my own routine. Pets do best with consistency, especially when their person is away, so I treat the feeding times, walk routines, medication schedules, and any quirks or preferences you share with me as the plan. In your home, I respect your space and your pet's environment, keeping things exactly as you left them and making sure doors, gates, and anything else are secure. Whether it's a dog walk, a drop-in visit, or an overnight stay, I check in with clear updates and photos so you're never left wondering how things are going. For dogs, that also means paying attention to leash habits, energy levels, and any reactivity or triggers you flag ahead of time. For cats, it means respecting their pace and not forcing interaction if they'd rather observe from a distance first. At the core, my job is to make your absence as unnoticeable as possible for your pet - same routine, same comfort, just with me filling in.

We couldn’t have asked for a better Rover sitter! She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, sending regular updates and making us feel completely at ease. It honestly seemed like Winnie had the best time with her—I’m not even sure she missed us! She was also so respectful of our apartment. It’s such a relief to come home to a happy pup and a home that’s just as clean as we left it. We would absolutely book with her again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable. Thank you for taking such amazing care of Winnie!

Megan was fantastic! She accommodated a last-minute request, which we really appreciated. My dog took to her immediately - it was like he’d known her for years. Throughout the visit she kept us in the loop with tons of photo updates, which we loved. My pup is high-energy Australian Shepherd, and Megan kept him entertained with lots of fetch to help burn off his energy. You could tell he had a blast with her. We’ll definitely be booking with Megan again!

We had the pleasure of having Dylan housesit our 15 lb rescue mix, Sully, while we were on a 10 night vacation. We couldn't be happier with the care, attention, and level of service she provided. She took Sully on several walks a day, fed him, and gave him lots of cuddles while also doing household tasks such as taking in packages and watering plants. The communication was friendly, consistent, and clear. She sent daily updates on how Sully was doing, along with some pretty downright adorable, well-shot photos. She even left behind a hand-drawn portrait of Sully, which was so unexpected and above-and-beyond. We'd definitely book her again! Thanks, Dylan! You're great at this!

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!
