“Carson was very patient with me as I sorted out my schedule. She came highly recommended from the references she provided. She cared for my elderly dog, Penny, including administering a complicated regimen of medication. I would hire her again!”


About: I’ve taken care of fur babies since I was 14. I grew up with a loving red nose pitbull, Raja, who was my lifelong friend. When she passed away we had two blue nose pit bulls ~ Zuma & Chinx. These babies were so loving, protective , fun, and crazy. I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. So I want to treat your fur babies the way I would my own. What I offer is love, compassion, kindness, and TREATS!! I am currently a full time student and mom! I do this in between my school load and volunteering at my little ones school. So, I can handle the work, provide love / support, and send cute fur baby mail!! 🐶🐱 I would treat these babies like they are my own, which means an experience that is unique. These animals will be treated with the upmost love, respect, care, and devotion. You need to have no worries with me!

“Chenelle was very good with our dog and would send us videos and pictures throughout the day, so we were constantly updated. We would use her again!”


“Michael is the BEST. He took care of our house and our cats with patience, humor, respect, and care. He sent photos, funny info, and kept us updated on their antics. A couple of things went wrong in the house while we were away (nothing to do with Michael) and he handled them with complete grace. I felt at ease while we were away and would not hesitate to hire Michael again. And again!! We recommend him 200%!!”


“Noelle was wonderful with our cat and large dog, and I really appreciated her great communication throughout. She was observant in caring for them, checked in regularly as we'd agreed, and was a very considerate houseguest while we were away. This was our first time entrusting our pets and home to another person, and it really put me at ease to come home to happy animals. We look forward to working with her again soon!”


“Raiysa was great with Ekko! She listened to everything we asked from her, and Ekko was really relaxed with her. He even ate and he never eats when we’re gone!”


About: I have 5 years of experience dog walking. I have been dog sitting on and off for the past few years. I have a dog of my own that I have had for 3 years. I treat your dog as if he or she was my own dog. I am very responsive while I watch the dog. I enjoy sending lots of pictures and updates to the owner. I used to have a dog named Princess who was alive for 13 years. She enjoyed snuggles a lot! I also had a dog named Harley. She belongs to my dad now. I've had my Benji Boy for 3 years now. I used to take care of Harley when my father went away on vacation. I made sure I fed her, walked her and gave her lots of attention. I also gave her treats if she was being a good listener. I feed Benji two times a day, I add water to his bowl about 4 times a day, I take him out in the backyard every 4 hours, I walk him early in the morning before I go to my day job. Benji is very friendly and loves being social with other dogs! I will make sure your dog is given lots of attention and love. I have open availability right now until I find a full time job. Please send a message to ask if I will be available during a specific holiday. I can walk your dog in the afternoon and make sure they are fed and have water in their bowls. I go to client's homes because I feel the dog will be more comfortable being in their own environment. Usually the dog is very comfortable being in their own home and is able to get comfortable with me. If there are any rules in the house, I follow them. I make sure to keep the common areas clean if I end up staying over someone's home.

“Pete went above and beyond! Incredible job as far as attention to detail and instructions. Very nice guy who kept us completely in the loop the entire time we were gone. Pete is easily the best dogsitter we’ve ever had and our dogs can’t wait to have him back. Whatever is above a perfect rating is what we’d rate him.”


“Alexandra took good care of our fur baby, Bootsie, while we are away. She made sure that Bootsie gets his meds on time, provided the attention and care he needs. She keeps him company and gave him the treats occasionally. Alexandra also learned about administering the subcutaneous fluid injection on Bootsie daily - a new skill that should be added in her resume. Bootsie is grateful for Alexandra's company and for providing him the tender loving care in our absence.”



“This was our first time using Rover to find a dog sitter and the process was seamless. I appreciate that Stephanie wanted to meet Bayley beforehand which helped build trust and ask/answer questions. She was responsive, reliable, and flexible, stepping in at the last minute to extend our booking by 2 extra days when we had an unexpected emergency come up. We could not be more grateful for her support and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”


“Naomi was excellent with my Yorkie Egypt. Egypt loved her . Always wagging her tail in the pictures , playing, ate all her food and was giving warm, loving care By Naomi. Naomi requested all details in her care and did an outstanding job .”


“Amanda is awesome! She took great care of our senior dog while we were on vacation. She was extremely patient and attentive to her needs, gave her all her meds, and plenty of walks and attention. She was also very communicative which helped ease our anxiety about leaving our dog. I highly recommend her!”


“Sierra stayed at my apartment in the BX to watch my 45lb rescue pittie for three weeks in May, and I highly recommend her! She was responsive and so generous coming all the way from NJ to meet my pup and me first and incredibly responsive before the day of. Every day she sent me text and/photo updates, and it was super clear my pup was very well cared for and loved. Coming back, pup was happy and healthy and the apartment was clean as I left it (thanks, Sierra!).”


“Rachel was FANTASTIC with our 70+ pound Rottweiler/Husky with separation anxiety. She played and engaged with him when his energy was up, and let him lounge and rest when he needed it. We got frequent photo and text updates (and she takes really great doggy photos), and she even did an art project with him. He was happy and relaxed when we got home. Would definitely use her again for dog sitting in our home and might event try boarding him in her home when the need comes up. Thanks Rachel!”


“My dog Demi is an older girl and requires a little extra care given her age and Chelsea was great with meeting her needs! Chelsea updated me regularly and was respectful of my home and kept my space neat. I would definitely recommend”


About: I have been taking care of my dog for about 7 years now, I have been feeding him and playing with him, I love them. I work a part time job so in my free time I like walking dogs and seeing other dogs and everything they have to give. I have a fence so he can play when he wants on the deck or if he wants a walk. If they misbehave I can crate them so they can learn.

“Ellie was an excellent dog sitter. She arrived on time , even when we changed the time for her to come sooner. I explained to her that our dog is still new to us and in mid-training, so she should expect the walks to be difficult and she should keep them short. While we were out, she gave us constant updates, and told us he was actually doing great on walks and they got to explore, which meant he had a really good time even though we were out. When we came back he seemed so fulfilled! Also Ellie is awesome herself and knows a lot about the Westchester area. Highly recommend.”


About: I provide consistent reliable care; adhering to feeding schedules, outside/indoor activities, spending quality time, and administering any required medications. I also provide ample cuddle time! I’m pretty flexible with my daily and weekly routine. I have an open schedule, which allows me the time and flexibility to meet your pets’ needs. I love spending quality time with pets - providing affection (if your pet consents), mental stimulation through activities or toys, and overall providing a comfortable place for your pet.

About: I’m a recent college graduate with degrees in Education and History, and I’ll be starting my career as a teacher this September. For the I’m looking for meaningful summer work—and what could be better than spending time with animals! I’ve been caring for both my own pets and others’ for over 8 years, and I bring the same level of responsibility and attention to detail to pet sitting as I do to the classroom. I’m punctual, dependable, and full of energy—whether your pet needs long walks, playtime at the park, or just some extra love and attention, I’m happy to provide it. I’m also experienced with a wide range of pet needs, including puppies. I am available Monday - Thursday (after 2:30) as well as Fridays and weekends (any time)! I begin teaching high school in September and availability will differ. In my own home, I spoil my little babies 🥰 I feed my cats dry food twice a day, stock their water fountain with water, keep the dry food stocked, and clean their litter boxes. I give them outside time as long as they stay close or just have the back screen door open to let them see, smell, and hear the nature. Occasionally, I will take them in walks in the kitty stroller with the dog on the leash. When taking care of other people’s cats, I treat them with the same love I would my own. I am happy to care for them in all the same ways, including spending time with them, not just running in and out to feed and clean. I also usually provide photo updates. I take care of my dog by feeding him dry food, letting him out every three hours, taking him on walks as often as possible, giving him snuggles, playing fetch, giving treats, etc. so pretty much treat my dog like a king. I am happy to do the same for you!

“Manny is an incredible pet sitter. He is responsive and checks in regularly. I was so nervous to leave Stanley, who has special needs, in the care of a new pet sitter but Manny quickly allayed my fears and did a wonderful job. Stanley loves him and looks forward to hanging out with him again.”

She takes the time to understand each pet’s individual needs and routines. Whether it’s administering medication, keeping up with feeding schedules, taking the dog for walks, or simply giving them plenty of affection and attention, Sophie handles it all with great care and professionalism. Knowing that Sophie is looking after my pets gives me peace of mind whenever I travel. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter.”
