“This is the second time we leave our cat Luna to Sherry and Walter and as always they took such good care of her , provided frequent updates and made amazing studio level photos We will definitely have them babysit Luna again soon Thanks again”
“I booked Gustavo Salazar on Rover to care for my female pup, Antonella, for two days, and he exceeded every expectation. From the start, he was incredibly dedicated, keeping me updated with constant photos and videos that showed how happy she was. Antonella bonded instantly with his dog, Milo, and they spent hours joyfully playing together, even keeping him awake both nights with their endless energy. Gustavo’s kindness, patience, and genuine love for animals created a safe, fun, and caring environment. I’m beyond grateful and highly recommend him to anyone seeking phenomenal pet care.”
“Jatna a was absolutely amazing. The first time we met I knew it was a perfect match. She had another small dog at the time and my dog Hemi became fast friends. Jatna made it clear that she would be available any time if I wanted to check in or even FaceTime with my pup. I was so relieved to find someone who so obviously loved what they do and would treat my little man like her own. Hemi had a great time. In fact he pouted all day when I brought him home. He missed his new friends. Would definitely recommend her.”
“Christian really helped me out with a last minute boarding request for my dog Joey. He’s super responsive and sent lots of photos - Would definitely recommend!!”
“Kessy was very professional and attentive Chloe had an amazing time while boarding with Kessy. Her place is very clean and in a great neighborhood I recommend Kessy and will rebook for my next vacation.”
“I’m anxious without my dog and Michael made sure both my dog and I felt reassured my dog was living his best life. Michael updated me with photos everyday and I really appreciated that. Also, he was super cooperative with schedules and dog routines. Lastly, I was very impressed by the feedback/report on overall performance of my dog over the two week stay that he gave when I went to pick up my puppy. I knew a 9 month old portipoo could be a ball of problem but Michael handled it like a pro.👍👍👍 I would definitely come back”
“Bruno and Victoria took excellent care of our dog. They are reliable and is clear that they have a genuine passion for animals. We received daily updates from photos and videos, and it made us happy knowing our dog was having a good time while we were outside the country. Overall very communicative and went above and beyond to make sure to meet all of our dog's needs were met. They’re truly probably the best dog sitters we’ve encountered yet, and hoping to use their services again in the future!”
“Lal took great care of my senior shih Tzu Oliver. She sent lots of pictures and videos throughout his stay and was always very responsive when I needed to contact her”
“Yejin did an amazing job taking care of our pup Richard while we were out of town. She went above and beyond sending us consistent updates and taking him on long walks around the neighborhood. She also spoiled him by getting him some yummy treats! Richard seemed so happy and calm. We will definitely book her again next time we are in need of a sitter.”
“Athena took amazing care of my dogs, Matty and Max, during their 5-night stay with her. She treated them as if they were her own, followed all of my instructions perfectly, and truly went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable and happy. She kept me updated throughout their stay with pictures and thoughtful notes, which gave me so much peace of mind. This was my first time leaving my dogs with a sitter, so I was naturally a little nervous, but Athena completely exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Athena to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive dog sitter. I will absolutely be using her services again in the future!”
“Alanis and Marco are by far the best dog sitters I have come across on the Rover app. Gigi and I absolutely love them and I will only use them anytime I have to leave Gigi.”
“Everything went great with our cats' stay with Steven. He was very accommodating and even allowed me to adjust the time from the original booking to better suit my schedule. He was very thorough in doing a preparation call to learn all about my cats prior to the visit. The visit was terrific. While my cats were only with Steven for a short stay, they were able to get comfortable enough to explore and play which speaks to Steven's ability to provide a safe and welcoming environment. At pickup, Steven even helped me to carry the cats home as I only live two blocks away. I would definitely recommend Steven for the great attention, communication, and overall ease of experience!”
“Brenda took amazing care of my dog, Mochi, while I was away for the holidays! She was really kind and attentive with her - she played with Mochi, took her on long walks, and overall made sure she was happy and healthy. Brenda’s dog Choco is a sweetheart, and playing with Choco definitely made Mochi’s stay even more fun for her. Brenda was also very communicative and sent me pictures and updates while I was away. It’s always hard to leave Mochi behind during a trip, but Brenda made sure she was extremely well taken care of! I also appreciate that Brenda asked me really thorough questions about Mochi prior to the petsitting dates - it gave me comfort and peace of mind to know how much Brenda cared about Mochi’s wellbeing. I’d highly recommend Brenda to anyone!”
“The first thing I will say is Lillian‘s dog Picasso is wonderful, sweet and very patient. The second thing I will say is Lillian made sure my sweet puppy was very spoiled and happy. I will be using her again.”
“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.”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life and love caring for animals. I’ve fostered 14 cats, including kittens, undersocialized cats, and cats recovering from surgery, as well as fostered two dogs. I’ve also been a neighborhood dog walker and have cared for family pets. I’m comfortable with animals of all ages and personalities and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate different pet care needs. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and provide consistent, reliable care based on what works best for you and your pet. I have my own cat at home, so pets staying in my home must be comfortable and get along well with cats. I always prioritize safety and make sure every pet has a calm, comfortable environment while in my care. For pets who aren’t comfortable around cats, I’m happy to provide care in their home instead.
“I'm so grateful to have found such a lovely, caring person that makes my furry friend not want to come home. She enjoys and has so much fun while in her care. Thank you so much 😊”
“They did such a wonderful job taking care of my fur child while I went on vacation. My fur child enjoyed her time with them. She’s happy. They did some nice touches like giving her a small mini groom, supplemented her food with some freshly cooked food (of course I ok’ed it).”
“Wonderful experience as always. Jennifer and family are super kind, reliable, and very communicative. Harry was well cared for and happy when I picked him up. I really appreciated the flexibility and would absolutely book again.”

I’m very happy to have found Juliana to watch our dog Benji while my husband and I went on our overdue honeymoon trip. We got updates and photos of him during his stay and he looked like he didn’t even miss us! We will definitely continue booking with her in the future!
Jennifer and her family have been the best caretakers for Arthur. He stayed there for over two weeks and seemed to be part of the family. That was clearly evident from the photos and videos that arrived on a daily basis. We can highly recommend this lovely people and will use their services again. Thank you Jennifer & Co 😙
Emily and her family are wonderful! Frequent updates and pictures. Mason and Gobi always look so happy. Their things was packed very nice and tidy. Was worried about Mason’s skin since it gets easily irritated but it looked better than when he was home. Glad we were able to find Emily.
Riley looked after our miniature schnauzer while we were away for a month and we couldn't have been happier with the love and care she and her family offered. She kept us updated and shared plenty of pictures. Our dog is a senior so it was especially nice to see how she took great care of her needs. We highly recommend her services.
I had to find a last-minute sitter for Romeo while I was away. He was initially staying with family, but due to some unexpected medical emergencies, we had to make other arrangements. I was so lucky to find Jun T., who took care of Romeo for 15 days. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Jun took wonderful care of Romeo, took him out for walks, and sent me pictures and videos every day along with regular updates. Knowing that Romeo was happy, safe, and well cared for gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I’ll admit I was a little nervous because of a previous bad experience with a Rover sitter, but I trusted Rover enough to give it another try. This time, I decided to look for someone a little farther from home and try a new environment for Romeo—and I’m so glad I did! I’m truly happy I found Jun T. He clearly has a genuine love for pets and treated Romeo with care and affection. I would absolutely use him again. Now I know that whenever I travel, Romeo has someone I can trust who will love and care for him as if he were his own. ❤️🐾
Kristi and her husband were phenomenal! Kristi was so understanding about a last minute, extended stay for Dom and Ellie, and is clearly a huge dog person. We got lots of updates, where it was clear they were having the best time, and they came home happy and healthy. Highly recommend!
Kiara has been our go-to sitter for years! She always takes such great care of our furbabies and has no problem handling their quirks and schedules (bonded pair, reactive, special diets). One of our dogs developed several illnesses later in life and Kiara was a pro at handling medication, monitoring seizure episodes, and keeping us constantly updated.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
