“Super responsive and reliable! Jordan was able to help me out with a last-minute request and handled everything perfectly. I really appreciated the quick communication and flexibility.”


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.

About: I am a lifelong dog owner and lover. I have cared for many pups over the past decade, including senior pups with disabilities and reactive dogs. I am a full time dog walker servicing clients mainly in Park Slope and Gowanus, and extending to surrounding neighborhoods including Carroll Gardens and Cobble Hill. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness, whether during walks or on home visits. Here’s what you can expect from me: Personalized Attention: I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs they may have (dietary, medical, or behavioral). I believe in creating a calm environment for dogs of all dispositions. Safe & Comfortable Space: If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll ensure your pet feels secure and at ease in their familiar environment, following your instructions for their usual routine. Communication & Updates: I provide regular updates with photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. I understand that pets are family, and keeping you informed is key. Health & Well-Being: I monitor your pet's health closely, ensuring they eat, drink, and rest as needed. I’m happy to follow any medication schedules and keep an eye on any health concerns. If anything seems off, I’ll reach out to you immediately. Respecting Your Preferences: Whether it's the specific feeding schedule or preferred routines, I always make sure to follow your instructions carefully to ensure consistency for your pet. I treat every dog I look after with the same love and care I would give my own. I’m committed to providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where your pet can thrive.

“Kimberly was amazing! So on top of everything and left our place spotless after a week away. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter and will be booking her again as soon as we schedule our next trip! :)”


“Another amazing visit. We feel so lucky to have found this sitter. We are hoping he can watch our fur babies when we go into labor with our first child. He is so wonderful with our pooches!”


“Chandra was great! She was really sweet with the cats, provided updates everyday and was very quick to respond to any and all our questions. I would definitely hire her again.”


About: Originally from Kentucky, based in NYC for the past 10 years. I am a lifetime animal lover who has taken care of other's pets since my youth, including my family rescue Charlie from the time I was a teenager. I understand the importance of each pet's individual needs, and aim to tailor my experience to ensure that your fur baby feels as comfortable as possible to allow you enjoy your work day or vacation in peace! I am currently taking a break from my corporate job and have full flexibility during the times I am in the city (you can find my availability updated on my profile)! I do not have any pets, and live in a dog friendly building that is a block away from the promenade, and less than 10 minutes from Brooklyn Bridge park. In your home I can follow any instructions that you'd prefer and will tailor based on your pet's unique needs and personality.


“Jake wasn’t able to get into our apartment till 30 minutes past his start time because our doorman was out and he stuck around 10 minutes past his end time to make up for it without us asking. He was friendly with our puppy and attentive.”


“Rosie was wonderful!! Very communicative and “on it” which made the whole experience very stress free. The photos, videos, and detailed reports she sent after each check in were great. Will be booking her again!”


“Mila is a great cat sitter! She’s communicative and reliable, and we’ve used her several times to visit our two cats when we’ve been traveling. Would definitely recommended Mila.”


About: I have been a pet lover my whole life, and have spent lots of time taking care of friends' pets over the years, including both cats and dogs. For my own pets, I have two male cats, brothers named Malfi and Skye, who I obsess over and treat like my sons. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. I can be available weekdays and weekends and am happy to work with you to find a time that works. While I love both dogs and cats, I also know that they are very different animals with different needs. I know how problematic it can be when someone tries to handle a cat like they would a dog, and I always follow the cat's lead on how they want to be interacted with, whether that's a respectful distance or friendly belly rubs, and I always give a cat as much time as they need to become comfortable with me. I'm happy to drop on to feed pets, clean litter boxes, play with them, or just spend time with them if they just need some human company. I also love walking dogs and am happy to take them for a stroll.

About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was a child, regularly walking neighborhood dogs and boarding my cousins’ dogs. I’m familiar with the training philosophy in How to Raise a Puppy by the monks of New Skete. I take pride in being consistent and diligent, helping dogs stay on track with good habits while avoiding bad ones. I understand how important it is to provide dependable, thoughtful care that reinforces positive behavior. I’m a teacher with the summer off, so I’m available for pet care on weekdays from 10am to 5pm, except Tuesdays (available 8am–1pm). Weekend walks or boarding can be arranged on a case-by-case basis—just reach out and we’ll make it work. While my apartment is small, your dog’s care will prioritize outdoor time, play, and movement—unless you request otherwise. Indoors, I do not require crating, but I gently redirect dogs to keep them off furniture. I believe in consistency and reinforcing positive habits, and I avoid repeating ineffective commands, as this can dilute their meaning. I apply techniques from The Art of Raising a Puppy by the Monks of New Skete, including the importance of calm leadership, clear boundaries, and patient correction through redirection. Dogs thrive when they understand what’s expected of them, and I work hard to maintain that structure. Most importantly, I genuinely love dogs—they bring me joy, and I’ll treat yours with the same care and love I would my own.

She’s dependable, caring, and always goes above and beyond to make sure Findley is happy and well cared for. Whether it's a daily walk or an overnight stay, I can tell Findley feels completely comfortable with her. She sends regular updates and photos, which always put my mind at ease (and I can always tell Findley is having an absolute blast!).

Christopher C.
“Corin is a wonderful pet parent to their 2 cats, and has also dog-sat for my dog. They stayed at my house while I was out of town, and took wonderful care of him. He is a high-energy breed, and Corin gave him the long walks and attention he needs. I would not hesitate to have Corin pet sit for me again!”


Ian M.
“Whenever I’m out of town Ian watches Harry (my dog). He always lets me know when he gets to my house and when he leaves. He also tells me the route he takes for the walk. Whenever I mentioned Ian’s name in front of my dog, he gets very excited. It gives me comfort knowing Ian will be around to take care of my pup. Knowing someone responsible and caring will be looking after my dog takes the anxiety out of my mind.”

Cobble Hill pet parents share their Rover experiences
I was nervous, as always, about how my usually scared Pipoca would react. But Nicole, in some sort of cat whispering magic, made friends with Pipoca right away, and I was super excited (and shocked!) at how fast Pipoca trusted her. Absolutely magical! A great sitter, worried about Pipoca as if she was hers!

Vanessa went above and beyond taking care of my feisty senior cat! She is a true animal lover, with loads of patience and compassion for her charges. I received multiple photos and videos each visit, and she even came up with an effective technique to administer medication to my cat! She is kind, considerate, responsible, trustworthy and very thorough. I felt reassured knowing that Vanessa was dropping by while I was out of town. She also treated my apartment with care and consideration, disposing of cat waste before I returned! She is so thoughtful and kind. I’m looking forward to hiring her again in the future! 😺

Connie was amazing with our cats! She asked thoughtful questions during the meet and greet and made us feel comfortable leaving them in her care. While we were away, she sent detailed updates and tons of adorable photos that really put us at ease. She was super responsive, flexible with our last-minute request, and her calming demeanor helped our anxious cat feel relaxed. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and couldn’t recommend her more!

Kylie did an amazing job checking on on my cat while I was away! She provided updates regularly and was quick to communicate if needed. I always felt reassured that my cat was taken care of, and would definitely work with Kylie again in the future. Thanks Kylie!
