“Toshya was amazing with our cats, she really took the time to care for each one of them and make sure everyone was fed, loved, and got treats! I don't think our trip away could have been in better hands.”



“Jacquelin was fantastic. We were not the easiest group. We had many steps and requests and she had no problems whatsoever. She was extremely friendly and sent us many pictures. All of our animals seemed very excited to see her and we will definitely be reaching out to her again.”


About: I have been cat/dog sitting for 3 years now. I have experience taking care of cats. Ive also watched many different types of dogs including large ones. Ive always been a huge animal lover and growing up around dogs always walking and taking care of them, making sure they get the love they deserve. I love doing anything that I can for the animal community Im currently working on online college so im looking to get any side jobs i can in the meantime to try and make some money right now In a client’s home, I carefully follow their instructions and routines to maintain consistency for the pet, and I always respect their space and privacy. I give regular updates to the owner, and I’m prepared to handle emergencies responsibly. I keep their living areas clean, make sure they are fed and have fresh water daily and pay close attention to their health, including administering medication if required. Overall, I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing them with patience, affection, and attentive care

“If you’re looking for someone who is responsive, reliable, and great with dogs, Mario is your guy! We had to give my little psycho morkie Lucky eye drops because he had pink eye, and he was being very difficult which made it impossible for anyone to get them in. I was fully prepared to take him to the vet twice a day for ten days to have them do it for us, but then I remembered how awesome Mario is with him and figured I’d send him a video of how the vet did it and see if he’d be comfortable helping us. I was very surprised that he said yes because of how scary and aggressive Lucky was in the video, and I couldn’t have imagined how easy and stress free Mario ended up making the process. Mario’s first visit was dramatic to say the least, and I gave him many opportunities to back out, but he insisted on coming back and that Lucky would get used to it. He then went home that night and took a closer look at the video and figured out exactly what to do, then returned the next morning with a plan that worked seamlessly. Lucky’s life has been so much better ever since and it’s all thanks to Mario! Mario really cares about the dogs he works with and will do the research on his own to best care for your dog. You will not regret choosing him!”


“Rebecca Z. Has been incredible taking care of our kitties while our house sitter friend had to leave to for an emergency. She took over smoothly and Ian and George (our kitties) warmed up to her fast. We received many pictures and detailed updates for every visit. I will be definitely working with Rebecca on future trips”


About: I've dog sat and dog walked for my friends, for up to a few weeks of continuous care, ranging from puppies to older dogs. I also have experience cat-sitting and all the duties associated with that! I work full-time and am on Rover as something to do in my free time! I just really love all animals and thought it would be great to help owners out. Think of me as someone who can come by while you go out and enjoy the weekend or have a night out! I work from home so I'm able to take care of pets during office hours as well! While I'm not able to take care of pets at my own home, I'll always respect the rules of your house and property. Please let me know every detail of care for your pet as well as your home! I am detail-oriented and will make sure to follow it to a tee!

“Adriana was great! Our dogs warmed up very fast to her. She is very respectful of the dogs and their environment, prompt, and great communication. We will be returning for Adriana's service.”


About: Hi. My name is Kiki and I love dogs!! I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I was a manager at a cage-free dog daycare for 5 years, where I handled everything from group play supervision to administering medications and managing daily care routines. I also volunteered for 3 years at Second Chance Dog Rescue, helping with socialization, walking, and basic training. In addition, I’ve provided trusted pet sitting services in Peekskill, NY for 5 years until the family relocated. I’m trained in pet CPR, comfortable administering all types of medications, and have a dog of my own—so I truly understand how important it is to find someone reliable and compassionate to care for your pets. I have a car, am highly dependable, and treat every animal as if they were my own. Although I work full-time and attend school, I have large daily time blocks available between commitments, which I dedicate to pet sitting, walking, and drop-in visits I care for every pet like my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while following their regular routine, my skills are administering medications, and giving personalized attention. Every pet has a specific personality so I try to respect that much like people.

About: I have a passion for dogs and respect for animals, also with 10 years of experience. I have the right skills and training to care for your babies. I am working part time and I have plenty of time to play with your pups! My availability is flexible and can be talked about at any time. I am very observant and patient with handling different breeds and sizes of dogs. I intend to create a loving and happy environment while we go for walks and drop in visits.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I could walk, literally. I grew up surrounded by pets on a small family homestead, we're talking dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, and the occasional bottle-fed goat among so many others I lost count. Now 28, I bring that same lifelong experience, calm energy, and deep love for animals into every pet-sitting job I take on. Whether your pup needs a long walk, your cat needs quiet company, or your senior pet needs gentle care, I’m here to help. I’m confident handling animals of all sizes and temperaments, and I take pride in being reliable, communicative, and kind. I treat your pets like they’re my own. Let me know how I can support your pet’s routine while you’re away! I work weekends in the hospitality industry, which gives me a lot of flexible time during the week to focus on my writing. Pet care fits in perfectly—I love having walking buddies and a reason to step away from the page and get outside. Whether it’s a midday walk or a quiet home visit, I enjoy building routine and connection with the animals I care for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I’ve worked with animals my whole life—on a farm and in private homes—which means I’m confident handling different energy levels, temperaments, and situations. I’m attentive on walks, avoid unsafe areas or off-leash encounters (unless discussed), and always keep water and waste bags on hand. During home visits, I follow your instructions closely, whether it’s feeding, medications, or just quiet companionship. I respect your space, lock up carefully, and keep you updated with photos and notes so you always know how your pet is doing. My calm energy helps animals feel safe—and I treat them like they’re part of the family.

“Loren was awesome! Super friendly and communicative, always on time or earl, and took great care of my dog and was very patient dealing with her weirdo tendencies. I could tell from the photos and video how happy Wrigley was to see Loren 🙂. I couldn’t be happier with how it worked out and Loren has my 100% recommendation for anyone looking for a trustworthy Rover. Thank you for making my holiday travel stress free!”


“We hired Kalyna for a home visit just to meet her and have her spend a little time getting to know our dog. Everything went great, and we hired her for a home visit next weekend. We look forward to working with her!”


“Rachel is just fantastic! I recently moved to the area, and I was SO stressed at the thought of trying to find someone that would watch and take care of my babies as they would their own. Previously only my parents have pup sat them. I’m am beyond thankful I found Rachel. The dogs loved her at the meet and greet, she sent me pictures and a video which made me feel so much better! My little guy was apparently chilly on their morning walk, and I get the cutest picture of him all bundled up in her sweater with her, looking as happy and spoiled as can be! I also love how knowledgeable and experienced she is concerning dog care and health. Very trustworthy and followed instructions and very professional. Do not hesitate to use Rachel, she will treat your babies like family. Thank you so much!!”


“Nicole was very dependable and kept us updated with pictures during all of her visits with our two dogs. I’ve already booked her again as I was very pleased with the care she provided!”

“Bridget was wonderful. Communication with is from every visit. First time leaving our two pups for this length of stay and we were relieved knowing they were in great hands. Would definitely recommend”

Anna B.

“Anna was a great help and so friendly and reliable!”


Kez G.
“Kay was always on time and knew how to handle my dogs. She came and met Axel and Bo interacted with them and they instantly loved her. She communicated well and responded to what needed to be done. When she came over to the house and walked them, she would update me with pictures and videos. Her skills with dogs are amazing. She has so much experience and I got so lucky when I found her. She is reliable and an amazing person. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter or dog walker.”


Lily F.
“Lily took care of our two dogs and four cats while we were away for two weeks and honestly, I can’t imagine a better experience. One of our cats is older and needs medication every 12 hours, and our dogs are super high-energy and need a ton of fetch and running around to stay calm. Lily handled it all beautifully. Our animals are usually slow to warm up to new people, but they trusted her right away. The first week she came twice a day (morning and early evening), and the second week she stayed at our house full time. She was great at sending us updates--and not just quick check ins, but real pics and videos of everyone playing (both cats and dogs), relaxing (both cats and dogs), and just doing their thing (cats). It meant a lot to us to feel connected to our babies while we were away. When we got home, everyone was happy to see us of course, but they weren’t anxious or unsettled at all, which was such a relief. In fact we were shocked at how relaxed they were and how quickly they got back into their routine after being gone for a good 2 weeks. That says a lot. And of course the house was spotless. ( I think it might’ve been cleaner than when we left.) Lily is calm, thoughtful, incredibly reliable, and really sweet with animals. Even our standoffish cats came out to hang with her. We’d have her back in a second and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone who needs a trustworthy, kind, and genuinely wonderful pet sitter.”
