“Jules was amazing! We had several weeks out of town and were hesitant to board our cat for the time frame. Jules was easy to communicate with, flexible with scheduling times, and left great reports/photos that were fun to read when we were missing our Tabby. She also was kind enough to let Tabby enjoy some time outside when able (her favorite thing), and even bring in some packages that were delivered while we were gone. We felt very secure and were able to enjoy our time away knowing our home and pet were so well taken care of, I can't recommend her enough.”

“I have a very energetic 7 month old bernese moutain dog who loves to jump on you. Sirena was very patient and kind with him but also stern. He needs a little structure.”

“Megan was great! She went above and beyond for our cats and even worked with our two new additions - one who is absolutely terrified and still learning to trust. She sent us complete updates, which was hugely appreciated given that I'm an anxious Mama leaving my babies for the first time in probably 10 years. She even fed our plecco without being asked. All of our cats, even the shy ones, were receptive to her. She's got good cat mojo! :)”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid- from dog sitting for neighbors when I was a kid to dog sitting for relatives and friends as an adult. I’ve also owned a Dachshund, a German Shepherd, and Great Dane (yes, I kept sizing up lol). I’m currently available all day Monday-Thursday in the morning and afternoon. Since I have the summer free, I will prioritize your pet care in my daily schedule. When pets stay with me, I treat them like part of the family. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in a calm, clean environment (no kids and I don’t smoke). I stick closely to their normal routines (including feeding times, walks, and potty breaks) and I’m always happy to provide updates, photos, and messages to make you feel conn acted when you’re away. If your pet has any special needs (like medication or dietary preferences), I’m experienced and attentive to those details. When I take care of pets in their own home, I aim to keep everything as consistent as possible by following instructions carefully and treating your space with the utmost respect. I’ll make sure they have plenty of companionship, exercise, and affection while you’re away.
“This was our first time using Rover and Mitchell made it so easy for us. Everything we needed was done perfectly, and dealt with our very difficult cat in a very kind/professional manner. Communication throughout our time away was fantastic, we always knew exactly what was going on at home. He went above and beyond to make sure our home was welcoming to come back to (all trash taken out, area around litter boxes vacuumed, etc). You can see the joy on his face when we talks about animals, he took care of our cats as if they were his own. 100% recommend Mitchell as a sitter!”

I bring compassion, reliability, and experience to every pet I care for—because I know firsthand how much they mean to you. Whether your pup needs a long, energizing walk or your kitty needs meds and a cuddle, I’ve got it covered. I’ve been a cat mom my entire life and cared for my family dog throughout high school and college, so I’m equally comfortable with both. ✅ Available 7 AM – 7 PM, flexible for short notice ✅ Mobile with my own transportation—vet visits and errands included ✅ Skilled in feeding routines, giving meds, and handling special care ✅ Single and fully focused—your pets are my top priority! Let’s chat about how I can help keep your pets happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away or at work. I’d be honored to be part of your pet’s care team! I'm currently starting my own business so my time is very flexible. Pet care has always been my number 1 priority since I was young but especially since I adopted my first two cats in 2013 and my second bonded pair in 2023. I'm available to come to your home, pick up your dog for walks, vet visits and in your home I'll be their #1 fan! Providing quality care!

About: Hi! I'm excited to offer dependable, loving pet care through Rover. As a lifelong animal lover and dog owner myself, I understand that pets are family, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I currently have my own pup, Charlie, who has taught me firsthand the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, and plenty of love and attention. Caring for Charlie has given me daily experience with walks, playtime, routines, and understanding the unique personalities that make every dog special. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, simply some extra attention while you're away, my goal is to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide personalized care that keeps them happy and stress-free. Services may include walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, administering medications if needed, potty breaks, belly rubs, and plenty of companionship. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your home and your pets. I respect your space, follow instructions carefully, and work hard to maintain your pet's normal routine while you're away. Whether your dog loves long walks, your cat prefers quiet companionship, or your pet simply needs a familiar face during the day, I'm committed to providing reliable and attentive care. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and building a lasting relationship based on trust, communication, and exceptional care. I work full time during the week, so pet care fits best into my evenings and weekends. I’m available for walks after work and have more flexibility on weekends for extra time with pets. I will follow each pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, and playtime, and I make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I’m attentive to their needs, keep their space clean and make sure they feel secure while their owners are away.
About: I have a high-energy dog that has prepared me in all aspects of pet care! I am well-versed in on- and off-leash exercise and have plenty of ideas for indoor enrichment activities. Having raised my own dog from 6 weeks old, I’m familiar with all of the accidents that can happen when pets are home alone. I’ve also cared for elderly and medically-complex dogs. I work remotely during the school year and have summers off. My work is in pacific time, giving me plenty of time in the morning to take your pet on a walk, play outside, or just keep them company. Of course, when I’m off in the summer, I have all the time in the world to spend with your pets! I am open to the safety, trust, and environment guidelines set by each pet owner. As the owner of a needy dog, I understand that each family has different preferences for keeping their home and pets safe!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Brooklyn
Katherine is a saint. She took amazing care of our English bulldog while we were out of town. She went above and beyond to make her comfortable when our girl wasn’t feeling well and kept us updated with every visit. Thank you so much for the love you showed our Ellie.

Nicole was truly amazing and was so flexible with us. She respected our home and had patience with our puppy. She’s a great communicator and always stood in touch with us. If you’re ever looking for someone local and affordable, Nicole outshines the competition! Thank you!!

Paige was incredible! They hopped in super last minute and were able to stop in and take care of my pup after a sitter canceled. They followed all directions and was very patient with our boy in a situation that was new for him. Could not recommend enough!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Brooklyn stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Brooklyn choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Brooklyn with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
