“Aleksander is a life saver. He made himself available with very short notice to drop in on my cat while I was out of town. He is friendly and conscientious.”
About: Hi, I am Lisseth (Real name is Paola but I use Lis to make it easier on you), I am 29 years old and currently living with one male cat. I have had pets throughout the last 10 years, both cats and dogs from living with past roommates. I've dealt with a puppy(1 year), hyperactive dogs, and elderly dogs(1year). I am also able to teach tricks with my patience :) Physically, I'm able to walk long distances so your pup can be more relaxed than usual. If I'm pet sitting I am able to distract your dog with lots of playful time or just a relaxing petting time. I'm willing to learn your dog's personality so everything goes as smooth as possible. I am currently open for any occasion, walks and play time or overnight stays. My daily routine is simple and I am currently not going to school. I make sure to put safety first by being calm and alert while entering your home. Making sure pets are not alarmed as I enter your home.
“Shariyf was very responsive and accommodating- going above and beyond to come meet our cat before hand and washing out her dishes between visits. Our cat is not the friendliest but Shariyf was patient with her and she seemed comfortable with him. Will be hiring him again!”
About: I've been walking dogs on and off for some time now. Whether it is a dog that's part of the family or a paid walking session. I know how to handle all kinds of dogs and will be super fun and energetic when it comes to being with your dog. I'm very active as well and will play with your dog or go for long walks or even runs. I will send updates throughout the day/walk so you know how your pupper is doing and I know what to do if your dog happens to get into something that you wouldn't like them to be in. I love animals, especially dogs, and I treat them as what they are-part of the family. I know how special your dogs are to you and will treat them as such. I work remotely in my home. Im able to take pets on multiple walks a day. I’m very active and energetic and love exploring with pets. I have a fenced yard and two crate trained fur babies. They’re super friendly and welcome all animals. They are used to cats - as i have a beautiful cat fur baby-so we’re open to all.
About: I offer full-time, in-home dog sitting and boarding in a calm, loving environment near the beach. Dogs stay in my home, where their comfort and safety are my top priority. My space is fully set up for dogs of all sizes, with plenty of toys, cozy beds, and dedicated areas for rest and play. Each dog receives personalized care, attention, and a relaxed home atmosphere—never cages or overcrowding. For owners needing extended stays, I also offer free pick-up and drop-off, making longer bookings easy and stress-free. Whether your dog is here for a short visit or a longer stay, they’ll be treated like family. Pet care is a central part of my life. As a pet owner myself, I genuinely enjoy the companionship of animals and being able to provide them with attentive, loving care. I am available for in-home boarding at my home, as well as dog sitting and pet sitting (including cat sitting) in clients’ homes. I accept both advance bookings and last-minute requests when availability allows. Feel free to reach out to me directly with any questions or to schedule care. ❤️🐕🐈🌎
“Lena was excellent! Came on time, provided awesome care and great communication (detailed notes and pictures). We were very comfortable with the experience and would definitely use her again.”
“Emily was absolutely amazing with Jack. He is a senior dog with puppy energy, and Emily was a perfect fit for him. Emily made sure he was well taken care of with food and his meds, and was super communicative. We were so grateful Emily was available on short notice, and when our flights were canceled to come home, Emily was able to take care of Jack for an extra day. Will definitely be booking Emily again for our dog Jack. Thank you so much Emily!!”
About: I’ve taken care of many smaller breeds for the last 7 years. The walks are always at least 30 minutes long with a goal to give your puppy a chance to do their business and socialize under supervision. I am currently working full time in Coney Island area but I am available full time to come on weekends, holidays as well as most of summers. I have access to 4 parks in my neighborhood as well as the beach. I take my own dog out 6 timers per day at least 30min walks to do his business and socialize.
“Amy is fantastic, she’s attentive, prompt and caring. It’s easy to hand care to Amy knowing that when I return, I’ll come back to my happy, healthy cat . 100% recommend”
“Daisy is great! She is friendly, a great communicator, and my dogs love her. This was my first time using a rover and I’m so glad she was able to take care of my fur babies. I will definitely contact her again to take care of my doggies.”
“Tracy did a great job taking care of my 2 cats! She was very communicative and they seemed very happy and well taken care of when I returned home. Thank you so much!”
About: Hi all! I am a hybrid full time worker, so I have time throughout the week and weekend to care for your lovely furry family members! I’ve had a dog for half my life before he passed away due to old age. I grew up with animals too (from fish, jellyfish, hamsters, chickens, to the traditional dogs and cats). Now, I have a 2.5 year old husky. I use Rover frequently for sitting services for my own pup when I am away, so I know exactly how you may feel when you trust someone else to care for your pet. I trained my pup since she was a baby and I will treat your pets the same when they are under my care. Super flexible - will adjust to your needs! I am currently working from home most days and if you are around the area, I can help take your dog for a walk and/or play with them throughout the day if they are getting lonely. If you have a cat, I can also help feed them and play with them as well. The first thing I try to do is get the pet to be used to me so that they would trust me. I care for other peoples pets similar to how I would treat my own pet - like a family member. Depending on what you need - whether it is just looking over your furry family member until you get home, walk them, feed them, play with them, etc., I am flexible.
“Travis did a wonderful job taking care of my cat. He updated me with pictures and videos daily. I was able to enjoy my vacation and not have to worry. I will definitely use him again in the future!”
About: Hi! My name is Dasha, and I’m a lifelong animal lover. Dogs bring so much joy into my life, and I treat every pup with love, patience and attention . I’m gentle, reliable, and always make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and understood.

I send lots of photos and updates, and I always keep communication open so you feel confident while you’re away. Your fur baby will be in warm, responsible, loving hands 🐾❤️ I work part-time, which gives me plenty of free time throughout the day to focus on your pet. Your dog will get lots of attention, playtime, walks, and constant supervision. I live in a clean, cozy one-bedroom apartment that’s quiet and perfect for pets who prefer a calm environment. The space is pet-safe, uncluttered, and comfortable, with plenty of room for your dog to relax, nap, or play. I make sure the home stays tidy and safe, and I’m always supervising your pet so they feel secure and cared for.

Coney Island pet parents share their Rover experiences
This is not my first time to ask her to take care of my cat. She is experienced with cats and pays attention to details such as letting me know how much my cat eats and what’s in cat litter 🧐 Most importantly, she spends quality time with my cat! Plays and pets with her, and brush her fur 😻
We booked Emily again for our senior dog Jack. Emily went above and beyond as usual and we are SO grateful to her for her amazing service. Emily arrived on time twice a day for 10 days to feed and play with Jack, and every single time she provided a great update with pictures which put our minds at ease during our international trip. We also had a delay with our dog’s food shipment during which Emily made sure to keep him fed and happy. We cannot thank Emily enough and will book her again for our next trip. Highly recommend for a kind, compassionate and above and beyond service.
It is always a pleasure to work with Meg, from start to finish. She is always very conscientious: if anything is unclear or if I forgot to leave instructions for something, she always asks and tries to find thr best solution. I trust her 100% with my kitty. Thank you!
Lena has been absolutely wonderful. She is extremely communicative and thorough with her visit feedback. I also appreciate her availability and flexibility. I know my cat is in good hands with her, she makes sure to accommodate play time, cuddles/pets, food and litter care and medicine administration each visit. I feel really lucky to have found her!
We are so lucky to have had Maria to look after our cats during our vacation. She was super attentive and spot on with communication. I really appreciated the daily update, as we missed our cats dearly while we were away. Couldn’t have wished for a better experience.
