“We are super thankful for Shay & her amazing care of our cat Jeter. She is caring, attentive & responsive. She provided us with peace of mind while we were away. 100% rebooking.”

“Lucy was awesome with our dog who gets some separation anxiety when we leave her. She sent us such cute pictures and Maple was clearly super comfortable with her and happy to have her stop by to feed her and take her for a walk. She communicated with us really well and made us feel like Maple was in really good hands, which allowed us to be able to enjoy ourselves on our trip away. We’ll definitely work with Lucy again in the future!”

“Angel went above and beyond in her care for our pets. One of our Guinea Pigs was actually pregnant and gave birth while we were away- none of us expected or had experienced this before- and Angel herself works mostly with cats and dogs but she handled it like a pro! She took such great care of all of the babies and sent us pictures and videos every day as requested, which was so fun for my kids because they wanted to be there. She bought more veggies for them as needed and kept their cages very clean. I will definitely be using Angel again in the future and I highly recommend her!”


“Mistie was amazing. Best sitter I've had. She is not only warm but incredibly thorough. She made sure to give us ample updates re: feeding, watering, litter box trips, our cat's general mood and playfulness. Mistie sent us tons of pictures and videos during her check-in times with our cat. It was such a relief to have such a wonderful sitter look after our cat while we were out of town for the weekend. I highly recommend Mistie to anyone looking for a cat or dog sitter. She was great.”

“Amy was communicative and friendly and really made an effort with my cat Cotton even though he's shy with strangers at first. She responds quickly to sitter inquiries and leaves very thorough report cards. Would def book again!”

“Andy was great with my spicy Calico and even got her to take treats from him, which is no small feat. He was prompt with the reports and took lots of photos, and was very helpful in the emergency I was dealing with. Absolutely would book him again.”

About: I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for them. I am patient, attentive, and responsible with feeding, walks, routines, playtime, and giving pets affection and attention based on their personality and comfort level. I understand that every pet is different and try to help them feel relaxed and secure while their owners are away. I also have experience caring for caged birds at home, so I am especially mindful about safety and supervision around animals. I currently have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home, which allows me to give pets attention, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I try to keep pets comfortable and follow their normal routines as closely as possible. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment for pets. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, and each pet’s comfort level and personality.
“Tracy took care of my rabbits when my family was having an emergeny and I couldnt have asked for someone more perfect for the job to look after them while we were away even without meeting us last minute. She had no problems with getting access to our home and kept in touch througout the whole visit reassuring me and my gf that our pets are in good hands. Highly recommend 👌”

“Sam as always was great doing a double check-in Margaux! Great at getting her to walk keeping her happy and giving her dinner. Always my go to in my neighborhood and I highly recommend!”

“Fatime was an incredible cat sitter! Both of our kitties were well taken care of. We received many pictures and updates, so we didn’t have any worries while we were gone. Would absolutely book again!”

“Chelsie is adored by Duke. She is attentive, friendly, playful and hands on teaching him on every visit. I appreciate her approach and advice to help make Duke feel his best when she is there. She is a huge help, so thankful we found Duke a great friend.”

“My dogs became aggressive with each other Not Julie our awesome Rover person. After they separated she took all the proper measures and best practices - I was on a cruise - so I was unreachable -she called my emergency contact - she took one of the dogs to the Veterinary hospital to ensure all was well. - she kept in constant contact with my emergency contact a Nurse for over 10 years. - she called the next morning to ensure the dogs were ok and being well cared for. - SHE is amazing -”

Dyker Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jean is absolutely wonderful and my cat Murphy completely fell in love with her. She did such a good job taking amazing care of him, playing with him with his favorite toys, playing his favorite tv show, and just giving him lots of cuddles. I would highly recommend her!

Lena was great! She has visited us multiple times and has been wonderful with both of our cats. Tig can be shy and selective and he adores her. She also never skips Pumpkin’s little hallway strolls, which means a lot to us. We leave feeling at ease knowing they are in their hands. Thank you!

Emily has a gift! We feel so at ease leaving our sweet but shy cat in Emily’s care. We received many pictures, videos, and messages at every visit, which we always looked forward to, and they continued to reinforce the amazing connection she’s made with our cat. Thank you, Emily!!

Paulina is so great with our cats! We love getting her updates and photos - they always makes us feel at ease while we are away. She is good at reading our cat's energies, whether they want cuddles, playtime, treats or space. We always come back to happy cats :D Thank you again, Paulina!
