“Requested Avary the day before and was immediately reached out to, to confirm the booking and get familiar with our puppy. Avary proceeded to communicate ETA, sending pics on arrival and kept me up to date on the good potty moments and the bad. Will definitely be rebooking and recommend Avary without any hesitation to anyone who needs a sitter!”

“Rachelle was an amazing cat sitter! She sent us regular pictures and updates which we loved, and when we came home after being away for a few days our apartment looked exactly as we left it. She will definitely be our go-to cat sitter going forward :)”

“Ashanti stepped up in a major way to take care of our 12 yr old dog after she got unexpectedly bitten by a dog the night before our trip! She was very communicative and worked with my sister to follow the vet’s recommendations, including administering medications, and helped nurse our pup back to health. She also did a great job caring for our cat and our home. Thank you, Ashanti!!”

“Lenford made me feel comfortable that Charlie was in good hands while I was away! He sent many pictures in which Charlie looked like he was having a blast. Lenford also worked with me when my flight was delayed until the middle of the night and stayed with Charlie until we were sure I would be getting home soon.”

“Took great care of our Nebby and our home during her 10 day stay while we were out of the country! We could tell Nebby was very well cared for. We would definitely have Em watch her again!”

“Greg made the anxiety of traveling without our dog disappear. He gave us daily updates and photos and our dog clearly loved him and had a great time ❤️”

“Onyekachi was a wonderful sitter. She took notes while meeting Willow for the first time and asked great questions. She was very accommodating, updated me daily, and was attentive the whole time. Willow felt very comfortable/adjusted well to having a sitter and was a bit sad to see Onyekachi go. An amazing experience!!!”

“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.”

“Kristen had a calming presence that put our anxious dog at ease immediately. There was no panic when we left :) We were really happy with the experience and hope to work together again soon!”

“Christina took such good care of our dog for more than two weeks and agreed to stay an extra day when our flight home was delayed. She sent us pictures and updates every day. I certainly hope she is available next time we need a dog sitter.”


“Kier was absolutely AMAZING! He was so caring with my 2.5 year old Cockapoo - and sent me updates/photos multiple times a day. My pup looked like he was having way more fun with Kier than he does with me :). Thank you, Kier!!”

“Destiny was an amazing sitter and house guest! Our old boy, Blue, loved her from the moment he met her. She stayed in our home for 16 days and not only took incredible care of Blue, sending regular updates and pics/videos, but she went above and beyond by bringing in our mail, watering plants and even cleaned the house before she left, leaving us a sweet note. She was communicative, professional, and has a high level of attention to detail. We will 100% be using her services again!”

“Kimora was an incredible sitter for my cat over a long weekend - she was thoughtful, reliable, and sent consistent updates & photos. I could tell my pet was in great hands and I will definitely book with her again!”

“Meaghan was wonderful with our little puppy. You could tell that she loves animals and that she knew how to handle a first time meeting without causing the dog unnecessary anxiety. That allowed us to leave feeling secure that Maisie was in good hands!”


About: Hi, I’m Kaitlyn I provide dedicated pet care specializing in house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walking. I have a completely open and flexible schedule right now, meaning your pets will get my undivided attention and companionship throughout the day. My background is as a Physical Therapist Aide, so I bring a natural level of care, patience, and physical attentiveness to every animal I watch. I am highly comfortable managing the physical mobility needs of senior dogs or pets recovering from injury. My professional pet-sitting journey started right here in Chelsea, where I spent three years caring for a wonderful pair of resident cats. Since then, I’ve expanded my experience to include multi-pet households, most recently spending just under a year caring for a unique duo: an adorable kitten and a sweet senior dog. Between long-term clients, I regularly step in to watch dogs for close friends, making me highly adaptable to different routines and energy levels. Whether your pet is a high-energy walker, a playful kitten, or a senior dog needing gentle companionship, I know how to keep them safe and happy. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and respectful of your home. You can expect frequent photo updates and peace of mind while you are away ! As a full-time pet care provider with a completely open schedule, your pets are my top priority. I recently left a demanding healthcare role to focus entirely on my passion for animal care and personal wellness. My only daily commitments are my own workouts at the gym, which I easily schedule around your pet's needs. Since I do not have a traditional 9-to-5 job, I can offer total flexibility for midday walks, specific medication times, and extended companionship during overnight stays. Your pet will never be an afterthought, they will be the central focus of my day. I provide pet care exclusively in the comfort of your own home, where your pets already feel safe and secure. My care philosophy is entirely client-centered and pet-led. I take the time to learn your furry friend's exact likes, dislikes, and unique quirks right away. Rather than forcing a new routine, I seamlessly blend myself into their established schedule. By letting your pet take the lead and set the pace, I build trust naturally and ensure they feel completely comfortable and stress-free while you are away.
“Jasmine was absolutely amazing! She took such good care of all three of our dogs, catering to each of their individual needs. The level of care she provided to our dogs allowed us to enjoy our trip even more knowing they were in great hands. I would recommend Jasmine to anyone looking for someone to take care of their dogs. We look forward to working with Jasmine again in the future. We couldn’t thank her enough.”
“Janelle has been watching our dogs on-and-off for many years. She is so great with them, and they are not easy dogs. She is also super responsible and communicative; we trust Janelle to handle anything that comes up with the dogs or the house.”


About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 6 years and have had two cats of my own, so I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I treat every pet like they’re my own not just making sure they’re fed, but making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I naturally pay attention to the little things changes in behavior, mood, or appetite because I know those details matter. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or more shy and independent, I adjust to their personality and let them warm up at their own pace. I’m very consistent with routines because I know that’s what helps pets feel secure. I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep things as normal as possible while you’re away. You’ll always get regular updates and photos, so you don’t have to wonder how your pet is doing. I want you to feel completely at ease knowing they’re in good hands. I have a very open and flexible schedule. I can easily work around your pet’s routine, whether that means early mornings, evenings, or multiple check-ins throughout the day. Since I’m not juggling a busy schedule right now, I’m able to spend more quality time with your pet instead of rushing in and out. If your pet wants playtime, company, or just someone to sit nearby while they do their own thing, I’m there for it. I’m very mindful of creating a calm and safe environment, especially since pets can be sensitive to changes. I make sure doors and windows are secure, feeding areas are clean, and everything stays consistent with what your pet is used to. I pay attention to behavior and give pets space when they need it, but I’m also happy to sit with them, play, or just exist in the same space if that’s what they prefer. Sometimes the best way to bond with a pet is to not try too hard. I treat your home with respect and follow your instructions closely so everything stays exactly how you like it.
Canarsie pet parents share their Rover experiences
Bella was amazing with Juni! She was very communicative during the stay and attentive to Juni. She’s very knowledgeable about dogs, so it was so nice knowing juni was in great hands as I get used to leaving her. She even offered to come over early if Juni wasn’t doing well alone while I was at work!

Darian, showed up a little early which I appreciated. It gave us time to connect and share more details about Luigi. They were very communicative and updated regularly with photos and message! I felt that he was in good hands, they even did some training which was great. The next time we need a full day sitter I’ll be sure to use their services!

April took excellent care of our 18 year old cat. He is on a lot of meds (multiple pills, subcutaneous fluids, an ear gel…) and at a palliative care stage of life. April was able to keep him comfy and content while we were away. It was a huge relief to find her on Rover and have her care for our Bruce! She was very sweet and understanding about a diarrhea explosion on only her 2nd day of cat sitting! And we forgot to cancel a weekly food delivery and she very graciously got the package for us and put everything away. Thank you, April!!

Slade and Sakina were able to come through for me when I was in a pinch and had a last minute trip to Puerto Rico. They sent me constant photos and it seemed like they genuinely cared for my dog. I would rebook 100%. They started in my home and left everything as I did.

Great sitter! My cats liked Lex from the start, and my partner and I were very comfortable leaving our kitties with her because she asked great questions and had experience with our cats' specific needs. She was communicative, sent lots of updates, made sure the house was in order before she left, and brought our packages inside. Highly recommend, would book again!

As usual Ariel is amazing, I have had her watch my large dog Luna and she loves the time she spends with Ariel. She gets plenty or love an treats while I am away. I can enjoy my time away from home knowing Ariel is there taking care of things. Highly recommend and will be booking her again soon!

Janelle was fantastic! She sent detailed updates and lots of pictures every day, and I felt very confident that my cats were safe and happy. The photos also confirmed that even the shyer of the two warmed up to her very quickly. And I came back to a spotless house. I’m hoping she’ll be free next time we’re out of town!
