Top rated Brooklyn cat sitters
“A heat and relic cat sitter often highlights a combination of reliability, compassion, and excellent communication. Thank you Stephanie for providing attentive care, following instructions perfectly, and keeping us updated with photos and information. You are awesome and praised for building trust with our little ones. I would highly recommend Stephanie as she was once again Awesome.”
“Kasey took special care of our senior gal! She didn’t hesitate when I mentioned accidents outside the litter box or needing medicine. She played with our cat, gave ample cuddles and sent wonderful photos! I’d love to work with Kasey again.”
“Yun was super-easy to communicate with and very fast to respond. She took fantastic care of my cat and sent me very frequent and adorable photos and videos, which eased my mind (this was my first time leaving her with a sitter). Odile settled in quickly and enjoyed her time with Yun immensely. In fact, my cat currently appears annoyed that I took her home, away from Yun. Book with confidence!”
“Sara is awesome!! She was available last minute when another sitter fell through. She sent pics, videos and followed all my little lady’s instructions. Even brushed her and figured out that she liked to drink directly from the sink when I forgot to tell her. Gray loved her!”
“We have used a few Rovers in the past and Yolanda was far and away the best! Daily updates with pictures and videos when you are missing your pet, patient and attentive and responsive. Will definitely be rebooking!2”
“Toi is wonderful and so caring!! My kitties can be a little shy but warmed up to Toi immediately. Detailed updates and photos sent, excellent communication, thank you Toi!!”
“Ashanti is a true gem. She’s charming, communicates clearly, and genuinely loves and cares for the pets she watches. My pets adore her. She went above and beyond in every way, and I truly feel at ease knowing they’re in such loving hands. I’ve already booked her for long-term and frequent visits. Highly recommended!”
“Marvel is AWESOME. This is the second time he took care of our two cats, both for holidays. I feel very lucky to have found him. In addition to doing a great job with feeding, giving fresh water, and cleaning the litter boxes, he gives insulin to our old cranky diabetic cat! Cannot recommend him enough.”
“Sarah was AMAZING! She was super communicative and took great care of my cat. She took the time to play with him and learned his habits. This was my first time using Rover and was hesitant, but would absolutely leave my cat under Sarah’s care in the future. Thanks again Sarah!!!”
“Cindy was great! This was the longest we’d been away in quite some time so we were so nervous about leaving our cat. He’s a sweet but shy boy and Cindy did everything right to make us feel at ease. Thank you, Cindy!”
“Kayla is great! She has been dropping in on our puppy routinely for about 5 weeks. She is reliable and always let's us know how Finn was doing that day. We are so thankful for Kayla and highly recommend her!”
“Janina is wonderful! She was responsive, a fantastic photographer and most importantly, took great care of our very active kitten while we were away for a weekend, providing lots of activity and entertainment. Recommended and we’ll be booking again :)”
“Juliana was great with my dog Bailey! She accommodated a last minute booking request, and was very communicative and made sure to send lots of updates with pictures and videos.”
“Claire took amazing care of both of our cats—I truly have never received such detailed updates and great photos everyday from a Rover sitter! I would 100% recommend Claire to others”
“Just days after moving into a new home I had to travel for several days to attend a funeral. While I was away Alexandra dropped in twice a day to take care of my two disoriented and stressed cats. They both warmed to her very quickly - including my male cat who is stranger shy in the best of situations. Alexandra’s presence, and my cats’ quick acceptance of her, gave me the freedom to not worry about them during what was already a very stressful time for all of us. I would highly recommend Alexandra for your pet care needs.”
