About: I've taken care of animals since I was a kid, and have always had dogs in my home growing up! I like to treat every pet as an individual and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs. I’m currently a student with a flexible schedule, so I am happy to follow specific feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines. I always prioritize safety and communication with the owners. I’ll keep you updated with photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well-cared for. Most importantly, I genuinely love spending time with animals! I'm currently a Yale Law student so I have a flexible schedule for walks and care! I'm happy to help on weekdays and weekends. I have no other pets, so your pet will feel comfy and get all the attention they deserve. My environment is usually quiet and peaceful.
“Yunwen was great with our cat, Nemo. She sent regular updates and communicated proactively. I was grateful when she was able to accommodate an additional drop-in after we had last-minute changes to our travel plan. I recommend her 100%, as she was reliable, thoughtful, and trustworthy.”


About: I had a dog since I was in 2nd grade, for around 15 years. I have experience in young puppy care and senior dog care. Just getting into the Rover business, but eager of learn and would love to help! So I’m currently a 3rd Resident Physician at the hospital, so I do have more time on weekends to do sit ins and walks. I miss having a dog and taking care of one so this is my way to give back! I also can do late night sit ins or walks after my shift which usually ends at 630pm. I have an apartment with a doggy park and a pet cleaning and bathing area. The doggy park is fenced with toys and water. I’m great at following instructions and will take great caution and care in others home.
“Lorelei was wonderful! She did a meet and greet with the kitties before her check ins and spent extra time with them to make sure they were entertained and cared for. It was such a peace of mind to know they were well cared for while I was away. Will be booking her again!”
“Jen is just wonderful. Our cat is in the best of care and we receive thoughtful updates and communication. We are very grateful to come home to a happy cat.”

“I used Gabriela to watch my kitty and it was a very pleasant experience. Gabriela always kept me updated with each house visit and took care of all the special needs my cat had. She was also very responsive and more than willing to help out with getting the keys to my roommate, etc. I would absolutely book with Gabriela again, and you should too!”

“Lamisa watched my two cats for over a week. One of them is an elderly boy, and I'm pretty sure he somehow gained weight under her care, which is a welcome change!”

“Carole is our go-to cat sitter. She gives the best care and puts my mind at ease with detailed updates and adorable photos! I always feel confident that my cat is well cared for when Carole is watching her. Communication is always great too!”


“Katherine was amazing, especially with my senior dog! She gave him his medication at the correct time, took him on lots of walks, and dealt with his separation anxiety well. I could tell she really cared and that they both enjoyed each other's company. She sent tons of cute pictures! She also did a great job of feeding my cat, who predictably decided to hide every time Katherine visited. But she wasn't alarmed by the lack of cat sightings and just reported on her feedings and how much food she had eaten between visits. I would definitely hire Katherine to petsit again! She was great!”

“Liam was punctual, great at communicating through the app and followed Leo’s routine perfectly. He sent us photos and was kind enough to come meet him ahead of time. Would definitely use Liam’s service again”

“Jessica was very accommodating with my relatively short notice trip. One of my cats can be very shy but he felt comfortable enough to come for most of her visits. Everything looked great when I returned home. I would definitely use Jessica again!”

“Jacqueline took great care of our cat when we were away for a week. She is super nice and was always on time and our cat really enjoyed her company while we were gone.”


“Mikayla and Justin are simply great. They took great care of my dog Thelma, who can be very skiddish as she is a rescue. Mikayla and Justin spent ample time letting Thelma warm up to them before taking her out for a walk. I would 10/10 recommend them for any pet care and I will definitely be booking them again for Thelma!”


About: Use olive69192 for a discount on your first booking 🌟 Hi! I’m Mercuri and I am a student at Yale studying art history. I have two cats of my own, olive and oil, and I’ve petsat rabbits in the past. When I got my cats they had giardia and ringworm from the shelter so I quickly got comfortable with applying meds orally & topically! I’m working remotely so will have time to play with your cats! I see them as part of my daily routine and let them play with me a lot. I work with indoor only cats, and clean the space multiple times a day, I often scoop the litter 3-4 times a day, and I try to wipe my own cats daily. I’m comfortable with applying meds orally.
“Alyssa always provides our cats with the best care! She has really gotten to know each of their personalities and needs. I feel a lot better when we need to go out of town now that we have found Alyssa to help!”

“Nicole is the best! She is wonderful with my cat and is absolutely top: responsible, caring, proactive, and communicative. I am so grateful to have found her as a sitter!”

Katherine provides great care to my cat while I was away. She took the time to get to know her temperament and won her over with head scratches and special treats. Katherine provided thoughtful updates and photos daily. Having Katherine take care of Rory gave me peace of mind while I was away.

Rebecca was responsive and reliable. Our two fearful rescue dogs warmed up to her quickly. She visited three times a day, was on time, and consistently shared photos and updates. She even got them to go out for walks despite the rain and winds of the Nor’easter and their pre-existing fear of storms. I highly recommend her pet care services.

Jacqueline was excellent! She did a wonderful job taking care of my senior cat, including administering multiple medications. She left detailed reviews, and my cat warmed up to her very quickly. She is professional while also being very warm/friendly. I will definitely hire Jacqueline again!

Pauline was fantastic. She was professional from our very first message, easy to coordinate with, and clearly comfortable and confident around cats. She facetimed and photos during each visit, which put my mind at ease while I was away, and I could tell my cats were relaxed. Honestly, couldn't have asked for a better sitter. My cats loved her, and I'll definitely be booking her again next time I am away.
