“Juliana was great! Sje was prompt, communicative and kind. Our dog, River, immediately trusted her and demanded pets/treats so we felt more than OK leaving her with Juliana.”



“Jake was so dependable and took great care of my pup while I was out of town for the day! Was extremely communicative and went above and beyond to make sure my dog with special needs was cared for. Would highly recommend.”


About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life. I learned at a young age that pets bring me the biggest joy. Whether it’s feeding, playing, bathing, or just hanging out seems like the perfect time for me. I currently have an open schedule and am open for any opportunity that comes! What a better way to spend most of me free time getting to know your furry friend! I live in a 1 bedroom and have two very friendly and sassy cats. My apartment has two floor to ceiling windows that face a huge tree with plenty of birds stoping by that my cats love and am sure yours will too. My partner and I live a very minimal lifestyle and prioritize our cats to have the most of the space; cats shelf’s, hammocks and plenty of good hiding spots.

“We were so lucky to have found Jihyun to take care of dog! She was super sweet with him and went above and beyond in so many ways. Excellent communication as well! She captured lots of great and funny moments of our dog. We really appreciate her help and would highly recommend her.”


“Giovanni was very responsive, helpful, professional and punctual. It was the first time my cat Funes stayed on his own, and he feed him and played with him and send me pics of my cat. I would definitely recommend Giovanni and will hope to use his services again.”


“Linnea took very good care of Khal while I was out from feeding him, playing with him, to cleaning up his throw up. I appreciated all the thorough updates as well.”


“Maria was wonderful! She looked after our diabetic cat while we were out of town and helped with both feeding and insulin shots. She was very communicative and we’ll definitely be working with her again!”


“Kasey was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of our two kitties and was thorough in all of her updates and pictures. We will definitely hire her again :)”


“Kara was great! She communicates clearly and quickly, and her Rover cards include a nice summary of her visits and loads of pictures. We definitely recommend her to others and will book her again in the future!”

“Nelson was amazing! This was our first time leaving our cat Polaris alone for the weekend and we felt Polaris was super safe and in great hands with Nelson. He followed all of our instructions and was very easy to work with. Will definitely book him again!”


“Kendall is a lifesaver...literally. She was taking care of our diabetic cat Semmi while we were away, and noticed signs that something was wrong. She brought her to the animal hospital, where she was immediately admitted to the ICU for treatment. Thankfully Semmi's going to be okay, but only because of Kendall's attentiveness and instinct. She understands Semmi's behavior and mannerisms better than we do! But it doesn't stop there! Even after Semmi went to the hospital, Kendall continued to go above and beyond, going out of her way to visit Semmi in the hospital and check in on her. We'll forever be grateful that we found Kendall. Couldn't possibly recommend more highly!”

“Kimberly is so great! We had her watch our cat again over the holidays and she went above and beyond in making sure our kitty had everything she needed. Really appreciate the communication and cute photos!”

Carroll Gardens pet parents share their Rover experiences
Mariele is a gift to pet owners. She not only complied with all my requests for my 2 doxies, but was perceptive to their needs and moods every day. I came home to happy, healthy, well rested animals and a clean home. She sent plenty of pics and wrote detailed reports. I highly recommend her to everyone, even at the risk of increasing demand for her services and possibly missing her for next time!!

Sunny was awesome, would definitely recommend👍🏼 Consistently arrived at the same time of day for feeding and taking care of my senior female cat, over a 9-day vacation. We coordinated a meet up/housekey handoff beforehand, all super simple.

Rachel took great care of our cat while we were away! She did a video call with me and then came over to meet us before our trip. She kept us updated with pictures and asked to turn down the AC to make the apt more comfortable for our cat during a heat wave (something we asked her to look out for). She is easy to communicate with and very responsive. We would definitely book again!

we love deborah because we can tell she truly loves and cares for cats. when we travel, we feel at peace because we trust her to take care of our kitties. she’s ultra responsive and communicative & shares regular updates.

Niki is really the best and was available last minute to check on our Ollie when we missed oks flight home

Sofya was so communicative and great either my cat! I really appreciated how thorough she was with her questions and visit!

Happy Chaplin was able to be cared for by Rachel again! She always takes the best pictures and gives great notes on how he is doing.

Briana was fantastic with the cats. Spent tons of time getting to know them and winning them over. And she left the litter / food area even cleaner than she found it!

Sarah left a detailed report on her walk with my dog and took excellent pictures! I will be rebooking with Sarah again!

Lauren did an amazing job as usual! Our kitties clearly love hanging out with her and the apartment was practically spotless when we got back from our trip — no small feat with these two messy boys. Lauren even helped address one of the cats’ itchy ear problem and it already seems to be getting better. Thank you again Lauren!

Ashley has been wonderful! She’s consistent, timely, and always provides thorough updates when checking on my cat. I trust that when I’m gone that he’s in good hands.

Lindsay was great! Our dog Barry looked happy the whole time she was with him and he was super relaxed when we came home

Rikki is fantastic! She really loves animals and takes pains to make sure they are happy, entertained, and well cared for. She has done a great job giving insulin injections to our diabetic cat, we will absolutely continue to trust her with pet care.

We’ve booked Jean multiple times now. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a true professional who will give your cats attention and good care!
