About: Hi there! I’m Kelly an animal lover based in Little Neck, NY, with a flexible afternoon schedule and a passion for caring for pets like they’re family. Whether you’re looking for a dependable dog walker, a quick drop-in visit, or overnight boarding in a safe, pet-friendly home — I’ve got you covered! I’ve grown up around dogs and cats, and I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I make sure every dog gets the care and attention they need — whether it’s an energetic walk, a belly rub, or just someone to keep them company. 🔹 Services I Offer: – Dog Walking (available weekdays after 3 PM) – Drop-in Visits for feeding, potty breaks, and play available after 3pm and most weekends! – Occasional Boarding (your pet stays at my home) My home is safe and pet-friendly, and I only board one pet at a time to make sure your dog feels relaxed and at home. I know every pet is unique, so I’ll always follow your instructions closely and send regular updates and photos so you feel connected even while you’re away if this would be helpful! Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet so your pup can get to know me! 🐾 I currently have a full time job but am out of work by 3pm which leaves me plenty of time to take care of pups in the evenings! I also have availability over most weekends! ⸻ I provide a safe, loving home with lots of playtime and walks! I follow all care instructions closely and treat every pet like part of the family. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities!

“Ellen took great care of my two cats. I really appreciated her feedback on them each day, and her patience with them, as they are shy with new people. I will definitely be using Ellen for cat care again.”


“Urusha was awesome! She took great care of my two cats and all my plants, made sure my cats got their treats, sent me pictures every time she visited, and even cleaned up whenever she found a mess. The cats were super chill, and everything looked perfect. Definitely would recommend and would definitely use her again in the future!”


About: I’m a proud dog mom to a 5-year-old Shiba Inu and have also cared for friends’ and neighbors’ dogs and cats over the years. As a pet owner myself, I completely understand the worry that comes with being away from your furry companion. That’s why I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own—with patience, love, and attention to detail. I'm responsive, reliable, and committed to making sure both you and your pet feel safe and comfortable. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for your pet. I’m available for daytime check-ins and walks, and I can easily adjust to your pet’s routine and specific needs to help them feel comfortable and cared for. In your home, I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, walk times, or play preferences—to keep things familiar and stress-free. I always treat your home with respect and maintain a clean, safe environment for your pet. You’ll receive regular updates with messages, photos, or videos, so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands while you're away.

“Angie took such great care of our kittens while we were traveling. This was our first trip away from them and She went above and beyond to make sure they had everything they needed, including extra snuggles. Angie noticed they needed more water, suggested a water fountain and even set it up for us. She is the best!”


“Eugene was great. Responded really quick and showed up on time to help feed my puppy. He was very careful, very friendly and very respectful to everything in my house. He even stayed a little bit to play with my puppy to keep her company! I would definitely recommend!”


About: As a vegan, I care deeply for all animals. I’ve grown up around cats and dogs, have volunteered at sanctuaries, and have a sweet cat named Corny. I have many friends with dogs of all sizes and love them all as my own! I’m currently looking for part time/night time/weekend shifts, but am very open to discuss weekday availability. I nanny my niece 3 days during the week, but am free early morning and evenings/nights any day of the week. I give a lot of attention to pets when I visit their home. I recognize it’s their safe space, allowing them plenty of time to get used to my scent and presence, play with toys, and give lots of treats (if and when allowed). I’m also very comfortable with elder or more independent pets who may not be as cuddly or active.


About: Hello! My name is Julissa. I have so much love for all pets and animals. Growing up, i’ve always had a dog in the house, and they were always such an important member of our family. It’s been about five years since I’ve had a dog of my own. My last dog’s name was Sasha. We adopted her when she was six and had her until she was about thirteen. She was so smart, loving, and anxious when we first got her so our first few years together were spent establishing trust. Eventually we managed to off-leash train and we worked a lot on her recall so that we could enjoy longer walks and outdoor activities while ensuring that she always felt safe in her environment. At home we set her bed up in the kitchen, where we would pass our time cooking and spending a lot of quality time together. I had so many good years with my Sasha, and since she passed I have genuinely missed spending time with animals on a consistent basis. Since then, most if not all of my friends and family have entrusted me with taking care of their animals when they are busy or traveling, so I’ve had a lot of experience with many different pets and their varying needs/personalities. I work freelance as an artist. I am a musician, so I often stay at home practicing or composing. However most of my work is in the film industry, and this work ranges from smaller independent projects to network television. Although I do work on set sometimes, I try to take on as many post-production gigs as possible, so I often find myself sitting behind a desk all day. I have always made it a priority to work in a field that I am passionate about, and my decision to work with Rover has been no different. Caring for animals is not only something I am passionate about, but also a wonderful opportunity to go on walks and spend quality time with pets. I will always be very clear about any changes in my work schedule if those are to arise, but my reliability and dedication never wavers I have a fenced in yard and plenty of spaces in the house for your pet to wander and feel comfortable. I am also very trust worthy, organized, communicative, and extremely eager to work with you!

About: Can care for sick pets and give them medicine, providing proper care I have enough patience and time to spend with pets that are afraid of strangers I am a freelancer and I have enough time to stay at home with my pets, play with them and record their daily life… Hope you like it Pets can move freely anywhere in the house, ensuring they have enough space to run and play, and even sleep in the bed if they need company.

“Ari did a great job dropping in to take care of my cat for several days. I'd book him again and would highly recommend him to others as well. He was easy to work with and did everything as instructed.”


About: I'm an incredibly active individual. I love to lift weights, practice martial arts, hike, and go on runs. This allows me to be an excellent fit for a dog whose energy levels are high. If you'd prefer for me to not just take your dog to the bathroom, but provide them a good amount of exercise as well, I'm a great fit! When I'm not taking care of dogs I work as a writer, director, and editor on films, social media videos, and commercials. If you've ever wanted any photos or videos of you and your four legged friend (or just them) I can provide high quality images/videos for you as well whether you want to just show off to your friends and family or just to have status updates on how your dog is doing. Because I work freelance my schedule tends to be flexible and allows me to set my own hours usually. I will work with you as best as I can to fit your needs within my schedule. I treat dogs very similarly to how I treat people. I show them a great deal of respect, empathy, and love. I do tend to spoil my own dog here and there, but I also try to love him as unconditionally as he does to me. A golden rule I try to follow is treat others the way you want to be treated. Another golden rule I try to follow is to see myself in others. I also apply these two golden rules to my encounters with pets and nature in general.

About: I have a huge heart for all furry friends! In addition to caring for my own dog, I have experience dog sitting, fostering a puppy and volunteering at the animal shelter.

I enjoying long walks, hikes, and adventures with my own dog, so your pet will receive the same level of love and attention that I give to my own! I go into the office once a week, but work from home for the rest is days! I work Monday through Friday (9-5),but take my dog out at 7am, 12pm and around 6pm for walks and potty breaks. I can accommodate more time outside depending on your dogs needs! On the weekends I’ll spend a few hours at the park, beach or some large field for my dog to run around. I aim to provide a routine that works well for your dog and myself! I want to make sure all dogs are comfortable and adjust well to their new environment.
