“Eleanor was very accommodating with a rather last minute boarding request. Gabbie loved her stay! Would definitely recommend, she was very attentive to my dog’s needs.”
“Sherry and Walter were absolutely amazing! This was the first time we had ever left our cat, Romeo, with anyone, and from the very beginning they made us feel completely at ease knowing our baby was in such good hands. Romeo warmed up to them right away and quickly felt right at home, which was such a huge relief for us. They watched him for 15 days while we were away on our honeymoon and sent us daily updates, which we really appreciated. Romeo is extremely social and loves attention, and Sherry and Walter gave him plenty of love and affection throughout his stay. We are so grateful to have found them and will absolutely be reaching out again the next time we go away. We couldn’t recommend Sherry and Walter more highly to anyone looking for loving, trustworthy care for their fur babies!”
“This was the first time being away from our dog and Nicole did a great job at making him and my family feel at ease! She regularly kept me updated with messages and pictures and took very good care of him. Will definitely use her again!”
“I’m a kind of crazy pet parent with a 10 page dogsitting guide. Kiersten read the whole thing, remembered every detail, texted to make sure of things… She was amazing. Highly, highly recommended!”
“James was an amazing sitter for my pup Nala! He's extremely communicative and clearly a confident, attentive caretaker. He asked great questions ahead of time, put me at ease before I left, and followed Nala's routine and eye ointment instructions perfectly the whole stay. James sent constant photos and videos, and it was obvious how closely he was paying attention to her. He told me Nala would make a great therapy dog given how sweet and tolerant she is with every person she meets, and by day three he'd noticed she likes to stop and sniff parked cars on walks, which is such a specific, subtle thing that I don't think anyone but me had ever picked up on before. He took her on walks constantly (her favorite thing) and let her lead the way and explore. He was incredibly easy to coordinate with from start to finish, and I could tell he genuinely enjoyed his time with her. I'll definitely be booking James again next time I need someone to watch Nala.”
“Michelle is lovely and our dog was so happy to be with her for a week! We really appreciated that she was able to work from home so our dog wasn’t alone for too long. Michelle sent photos and updates daily. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Alexandra was so great with our older dog Phoebe! I know she was in great hands from the moment I dropped her off, and I didn’t have to worry about phoebe once while I was traveling. Would absolutely use Alexandra again in the future!”
“Evangelia took excellent care of my dog, Mai Tai; she came home smelling like she had been bathed and brushed, and she seemed happy. I am grateful that I found a reliable, affordable pet sitter here on Rover.”
“Jason was AMAZING with our girl! He sent us lots of pictures and updates over the few days we were gone, and was a delight to work with! It was so clear he made our pup feel super loved and gave her all the attention and snuggles she'd have gotten at home (possibly more! :)”
“I’m so grateful for Monica! Ice Bear unfortunately got sick during her stay, and Monica was so sweet and attentive throughout the whole situation. She even took Ice Bear to the vet and made sure she was getting the care she needed. She kept me updated with detailed messages, which I really appreciated, especially since I was away and couldn’t be there myself. It really meant a lot knowing Ice Bear was with someone who genuinely cared about her well being. Monica went above and beyond, and I couldn’t have asked for someone better to look after Ice Bear. Would absolutely book with her again! ❤️”
“SHE IS THE BEST AND THE ONLY PERSON I TRUST TO WATCH MY DOG ONYX LOVES HER AND IM SURE HE CANT WAIT TIL I GO ON VACATION AGAIN CAUSE HE GOING BACK TO HER FOR SURE”
“Very accommodating and understanding especially with how late I booked her. Willing to take a last minute booking and my dog enjoyed his stay. She kept me updated the entire time and did a great job babysitting.”
“My dog had been poorly the night before I dropped him off with Maria, which made leaving him hard, but Maria was wonderful. She reassured me that he and my cat were in good hands, kept a close eye on him, and kept me up to date. No matter what happens, I know I can trust her with my pets.”
“Nicolas’ family are fantastic dog sitters!! We boarded our dog at their house for the weekend and they went out of their way to make both us and our dog feel super comfortable! They sent us multiple updates every day with pictures and videos! It was a 10/10 experience, and we would definitely board with them again!!”
“I hired Alyssa for boarding and daycare. She was wonderful; I felt so safe that my dog was in her care. She sent photos and updates the whole time. Most of all, my dog tried to follow her out of my apartment during drop off, and whined as she left. 5 stars from Wilbur, too!”
“Aleksandr was a fantastic sitter for my two pups. He was easy to work with, communicative, and took great care of my dogs. Also - he is a fantastic photographer and took some amazing shots of the pups!”
“Matthew and Maycon took amazing care of our baby. She was so excited to see them again and ran right up to them. They responded to messages immediately and supplied pictures throughout Cardinals stay. We highly highly recommend you letting them care for you fur babies as well.”
“I have a senior dog with some specific needs and Jiaxu took great care of her while I was away! She sent me photos, videos and updates every day and made sure to clarify any questions she had so that she could take the best care of my dog. I would leave my dog in her care again and would definitely recommend her to other pet parents. 😊 Thanks, Jiaxu!”
“Yusuf is literally THE BEST and Buddy loves him! Will never trust anyone except him with our pup going forward. Communication is great, he’s very accommodating, and we are grateful for his amazing care. Thanks again Yusuf!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Shirley for the weekend. He has separation anxiety and she was accommodating towards his needs to ensure he had a stress free stay with her. I appreciate how she was flexible with my drop off and pick up times. Would definitely hire her again!”

Joshua was attentive, caring, and very communicative! He treated my kitten, Thunder, like his own and sent me pictures throughout his stay. Thunder had never stayed away from home before, but Joshua made him feel right at home—even sharing his bed, couch, and work chair with him! He never made caring for Thunder seem like a hassle. Such a wonderful caretaker. Highly recommend!

Gabby has watched my dog Halo at least 6-10 times! She and her partner are wonderful sitters! They also took in my two cats once or twice. It’s amazing for me to see my whole animal crew playing with other pets she is watching. It’s like one big happy family. All the animals and other peoples dogs look so friendly and even my dog looks so calm and comfortable. I’ll be using Gabby as my trusted sitter for a long time!
Kristi took such wonderful care of my dogs while I was away on my trip! When I returned, both of my dogs were happy, clean, well-fed, and clearly very well cared for. She went above and beyond by taking them on daily walks, bringing them to the park, and even taking my Chihuahua on a little adventure to Brooklyn! She also kept me updated with photos throughout my trip, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that my dogs were comfortable, happy, and genuinely loved while in her care. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! You can absolutely trust Kristi with your fur babies. I’m so grateful for the love and attention she gave my dogs and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!
I had a wonderful experience with Dennis, who took care of my beloved cat, Tiger, while I was away on vacation. Dennis was caring, reliable, and attentive, which gave me peace of mind knowing Tiger was in good hands. I truly appreciate the love and care he provided while I was away. I would highly recommend Dennis to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you so much, Dennis, for taking such great care of Tiger! 🐾❤️
Shehzad and his wife were wonderful with our dog Rosie, and we'd book them again in a heartbeat. At our meet and greet, they showed us around their apartment and the building, took time to get to know Rosie, and asked questions about her routine and personality. While we were away, they sent photos, videos, and updates. On our return day, our flight was delayed and traffic was heavy, so we arrived much later than planned. They were incredibly patient and understanding. When we picked Rosie up, they filled us in on how she'd done during her stay. They genuinely care about the dogs they look after. Highly recommended!
My senior frenchie had a great time with Bruno and Victoria’s family! They kept me updated with a ton of photos and updates (my dog needs to take 4 medications a day and needs some extra attention due to her medical issues). They have a really nice space, Bambi was almost always around someone, and I had zero worries while I was on the west coast for 6 days.
Jessica was INCREDIBLE with our senior dog Frida! We had more than a few unexpected changes before boarding and she was super flexible and helpful through it all. She also went out of her way to accommodate Frida while she was there, arranging and providing everything she might need, and giving Frida her medication daily. Jessica also sent multiple pictures throughout the week, which was great and kept us relaxed and happy knowing she was in loving hands. We’ll definitely book with her again!
I had great communication with Janet throughout the entire process. We did a meet and greet before the stay, and she asked thoughtful questions beforehand to really get to know Isabella. During the stay, she shared lots of photos and videos, which appreciated. Isabella adjusted quickly to the environment and became buddies with her dogs.
Not sure where to begin.. Irina is AMAZING! She was so caring of my dog, so attentive and kind. Provided me with constant updates throughout each day with lots of fun photos and videos. Genuinely went above and beyond from every aspect. When I got my dog back he was super clean, healthy, happy and smiling which even moreso tells me he really enjoyed his stay with her. I can go on and on about how great our experience was, but you should definitely try it for yourselves and see. Thank you again so much for all the love and care you provided us! 💕

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Many sitters in NY ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
