“Shes amazing! Very responsible, kind and patient. Huilin is the only person I trust to check on my little Eevee. Eevee is a nervous little bossy woman and Huilin is so gentle, understanding and patient with her. I’d give 100 stars if I could.”
“Great job very caring personality sent pictures daily which made me so happy this is my first experience on rover will gladly use this service again thank you so much Samantha I appreciate everything you have done”
“Elena watched my 15 week old puppy, Saylor, while I was home for a family emergency on Staten Island. She visited Saylor for several walks throughout two days. Elena was extremely trustworthy, always on time (if not early) and entirely engaged with Saylor for the full visit! I highly recommend Elena for any pet help you may need!”
About: Ive always had a dog in my home 2 German shepherds and 4 small dogs. I loved taking care of Them whether it was walking them or giving them a bath it was like a companion Pet care fits into my routine by having a companion and just spending time with an animal. I no longer have a dog but it’d be fun to take care of some I have gave my cat her own play gym within my home and I take her on walks outdoors instead of her roaming the street on her own
“Day 1 leaving our puppy home by herself was such an easy good day because of Durell. 🥰 She’s timely,‘communicative, loving, and very helpful/does anything I suggest or ask of her. Will keep using Durell & Michael again and again for our pup, Scoobie… She loves Durell, as well!”
“Nermina was super kind and thoughtful when taking care of our cat. She was the first person to make a real connection with him! We also really appreciated that she stayed for the full 30 minute visit - something others don’t typically do. Would definitely book again if our schedules line up in the future.”
About: I have watched a few pups over the past year, and have loved it so much. I’ve always wanted one of my own, but unfortunately I’m moving to an apartment that is not pet friendly in July, so I’ll love yours as if it’s my own!! My experience also includes anxious pups and allowing them to warm up to me. I work at a college, so I’m off for the summer with plenty of free time! I’m happy to adjust my lifestyle and schedule to your pups when they are in my care! My neighborhood is very pet friendly. At night I can crate or let your pup sleep in their bed or with me. My main goals are to keep them on their normal routine and show them as much love as possible!
“Tara was amazing! She did a great job taking care of my cat Jax and I can tell by the photos he loved her visits. She fed him 2x a day and cleaned his litter, bowls and the surrounding areas. She even took in my mail/packages! Jax was well taken care of and I truly enjoyed receiving photos of him during Tara's drop-ins. I'm so happy I took the recommendation to use Rover and found someone so trustworthy and caring towards my boy!”
“Abigail was excellent with our dog. She was always on time and made sure Hazel got lots of exercise and attention when she visited. She listened to our needs and made sure to follow everything we asked of her and kept Hazel's routines as close as to what she was already used to. Our dog loved her and we will def be using Abigail again.”
About: I don’t have any special training with dogs, but I do have a genuine love for them. I have my own dog and have had other family& friends dogs/pet that I love and care for regularly. I make sure to tend to my own dog every morning before heading out for work, and making sure he is all set for the day. He goes on 2-3 walks a day, so that he can exhaust energy, stimulate his sense, and explore nature. When pet sitting, I like to get a run down of anything I should be aware of about the pet, likes, dislikes, allergies, favorite toys, and where everything is located. Then from there I just play with the pet or allow the pet time to warm up to me and let them know I am a safe person and it is a safe environment.
“Alexis was wonderful with my dog and cat. She met them a week before. My dog instantly got along with her. Alexis has a very kind and caring aura to her that my pets picked up on and were comfortable with her right away. My husband and I will be reaching out to her for any future trips.”
“We booked Michelle for a drop in after a meet and greet while we were present to get our anxious dog familiar with her. She was wonderful with our pups and now our newest addition. She follows the instructions given and after one meet and greet she knew exactly what to do with our dogs. Our anxious pup was jumping on her for attention and love and was amazing around her! Thank you for being patient and letting our dogs get familiar with you before our long trip this summer Michelle! 🩷🩵🩷”
About: Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do it’s something I love. With over seven years of hands on experience, I’ve worked with pups of all ages, from energetic puppies who need structure and play, to senior dogs who deserve gentle care and patience. But what truly sets me apart isn’t just my background it’s how I show up for every dog I meet. I believe dogs need more than just food and potty breaks they thrive on connection, routine, and fun. Whether it’s going on engaging walks, getting in some solid playtime, working on basic training, or just lounging with belly rubs and calm companionship, I focus on giving each dog exactly what they need to feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I treat every dog like my own and I know how important it is to have peace of mind when someone else is caring for your pet. That’s why I keep you updated, send pics, and make sure your pup is not only well cared for, but genuinely enjoying their time Believe your dog is in great hands. Pet care is a daily priority, including feeding, exercise, and affection, ensuring seamless integration into my routine, prioritizing furry companions' well-being, and with weekly tasks like grooming and vet visits ensuring their well-being. In my client's home, I tailor pet care to their specific needs, providing feeding, exercise, and companionship. Home care varies based on service type and client preferences.
About: Ive always loved animals since I was young, I have babysat many friends fur babies bathed them, took them on walks , fed them and I can say its a really nice experience with rover I have the chance to meet many more. Aside from work I don’t really have much going on, being able to babysit fur babies will allow me to be more active and productive. I currently have 2 small friendly dogs that will help them be more comfortable and we live near a park that will allow me to walk let them and let them run and use some of their energy, if any fur babies need to be crated we also have crates at home.
About: I am a former animal care specialist at Pet N’ Play Luxury Resort, when I was living in upstate NY. Currently living in Bushwick, and at the resort I supported cats and dogs for overnight stay at our daycare, as well as the veterinary hospital next door (Middlehope Hospital)! I worked with animals for playtime, feeding, laundry, cleanup, walks, and maintained their health and wellness report cards everyday. I have supported puppies at least 4 months old, blind, deaf, and senior dogs. CATS: I’ve taken care of cats at the hospital, and as a Walden Humane Society Volunteer! Love all cats, but I can only stay at the home if they are hypoallergenic :o at the moment i have availability after 3pm on weekdays, and anytime weekends! i work part-time in event staffing, and im very comfortable in nyc day and night, as im originally from queens :D. please feel free to contact me if you have further questions :) I’m not able to bring pets to my residence, however I’m currently offering dog walking and dog sitting! I love to spend time with dogs through use of toys or companionship, walks, talking to them, petting, being by their side, or inviting them to sit with me!
About: Ever since I was a little girl, animals have honestly always been apart of my life and I always see it as a blessing. So from time to time when I can, I do rescue some strays that I find and give them loving homes. I also have a dog of my own named Gizmo who I love dearly. Whenever I get an opportunity to dog/cat sit neighbors or family's pet, I will always treat them as my own. I also volunteer at shelters, or dog shops to help walk them and feed them, make them feel love and comfort. The number one thing that I prioritize is animals safety and my full attention towards them. I do love to play with them, pet them to sleep, and sometimes sing to them to calm them down at times when feeling anxious. Dog/cat sitting is something I love and will always love.
About: Hi! My name is Raquel. I’m a working professional. I love dogs and all animals. I most recently had a 10 year old shih-poo, Mocha, who I had to put down back in April due to several episodes of congestive heart failure. I had him since he was 2 months old and he brought me so many moments of happiness! I have since then fostered puppies and dogs with a local organization. Each experience is unique as each dog has their own personality! I find joy in getting to know them and caring for them, even if for a short while. I understand caring for your beloved pet requires patience, attention, and passion. I look forward to caring for your pet in the same way! I'm currently working from home so I will have plenty of time to care for your dog! I'm available on weekends and nights, upon request. I have a fenced yard and own a crate, if needed. I do not mind having your dog play around my home so that they have active time outside the crate.
About: I have always had a pet growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion in learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in pet care is from having my own pets, family pets and caring for others pets at work as a veterinary assistant over the years and I am currently in school for Veterinary Technician. I also do house visits for dog and cat nail trimming. I'm currently working 3-days a week I will have plenty of time to play with your pups. I'm available Sunday, Tuesday, Friday and Saturday at anytime needed. I have a fenced in yard with 3 great dogs. I care for my dogs in my house by letting them outside to burn off their energy and play with their toys. In the summer they will dive right into their doggy pool.

We had such a great experience with Ismail watching our dog, Koda! From the start, he was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making Koda feel comfortable and happy. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dog was in such good hands. Koda absolutely loved him, which says everything. He can be picky, but he warmed up to Ismail right away. We came home to a happy, well cared for pup, and that means the world to us. We’re so grateful to have found someone we truly trust and will definitely be booking with Ismail again. Highly recommend!
Spencer was great! My cat warmed up to him quickly! He fed and played with her like how I asked. He communicated well and promptly. I asked him to drop off my packages and mail while I was away. He also agreed to do a neccessary last-minute task of picking up recyclables that had spilled out on at the front. Very helpful too!
I could not be happier with how Michael and Durrell took care of Jax. They took the time to get to know him before I went away and worked with him to the point he was making great progress. Jax is used to being just with me but Michael and Durrell had the patience to work with him til they were able to take him for walks and he’d showed them affection. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them for my next trip.
I recommend Ian! He took very good care of my cats. He cares. While I was gone, he would call me and express concern if he suspected something was wrong. He was there on time every day for weeks, and always sent me pictures and updates. He even did the cutest drawing of my cat Winston and taped it onto the kitchen cabinet, which I appreciated. I will definitely call on him again to take care of my cats.
Above and beyond.... i never once felt any sense of concern leaving my cats in Sarah and Marias care. They were excellent care takers and lovely people. In fact i had to extend my stay and thats where they truly went above and beyond to help me out. I will definitely ask for them again if needed.
This was my first time having Jazmeen to watch my two boys and she exceeded my expectations. She was on top of everything I asked to be completed and then some. Both Cosmo and Reggie were fond of her and I will most definitely be booking her for my next trip!
Victoria was so great with my 3 kitties! They are all a little shy and have never been left alone before so I was very worried, but Victoria was wonderful and handled the challenges of them running away and hiding. She was patient and attentive. She communicated clearly and worked with me to make sure my babies eat there food, even though we had to stray from the original plan because of my shy/scared little guys. I am so grateful for her service and patience. She went above and beyond finding all there hiding spots and getting their food bowls to them. She was on time, respectful of my home, had great communication, followed directions, problem solved, and had great patience, everything you could hope for when leaving your loved ones in her care. I would definitely recommend her and will book with her again if needed. Thank you so much Victoria!
Alekhandra was great! I have four very mischievous cats and Alekhandra handled them & their mischief phenomenally while I was gone for a week. She gave my cats lots of cuddles and played with them until they got tired. She also cleaned up any messes my cats made which I really appreciated. Alekhandra was also very communicative, flexible, and easy to coordinate with. I'd recommend her to a friend and would definitely book with her again.
