“Adriana is exceptional! We loved meeting her and having her housesit with our pup Sabzi. She is extremely communicative/responsive, sent over lovely photos while we were traveling, and took great care of our space. When we returned from our trip, Sabzi was clearly calm and happy. Would absolutely book Adriana again, and highly recommend her for other pet parents!”

“Highly recommend! Halley was the best Rover sitter we’ve booked so far! She was super easy to communicate with and she provided prompt and thorough updates. Her calm demeanor was helpful with our dog as he can be a bit shy and anxious at times. It was a relief knowing he was in great hands! I will definitely be booking Halley again!”

About: Hi! I’m Lucie and I’m a student studying here at NYU! Being here in New York is so amazing, but it means being away from my two beautiful dogs back at home (I miss you Max and Moby!). My education is very valuable to me, but so is my connection to pets. I’m hoping to connect with other dogs and dog-families while supporting myself through my education. I’ve been house sitting and dog walking for families since I was around 13. Walks included hikes, runs, and scenic routes! I love being able to learn what each dog needs and adapt through time spent with them. My family had many dogs growing up, including fosters, so I have had experience resolving conflicts between different dogs. I think our pets are family, and I hope to make them feel like that when they are with me! I'm currently working part-time, so there is plenty of time in my schedule for pop-in visits, walks, or stays! My days off would include dedicated time to your pets. For home stays and pop-in visits my priority will be to listen and watch for what each pet needs in their own space. My goal is to make them feel comfortable! Similarly for walks, I will let each dog set the pace as they show me what they want to smell or where they want to go.

“Claire is great!! This is the second time she’s watched our pets and we’ll continue to use her whenever we can. She’s great at communicating, follows directions, and she genuinely cares about making sure your pets are well cared for.”


“Michael took great care of Brutus! He was very good at keeping in touch and giving me updates including pictures. Felt like both my dog and home were well taken care of while I was away! Would highly recommend to anyone and welcome back anytime!”

“Jillian was so great and lovely as a house sitter for our two pups! We have one senior pup who can be a bit needy and she handled both of them with love and ease - she asked great questions, had great communication and sent lots of updates of my cuties! I’d definitely recommend her!”

“Juliana is great - I highly recommend her! All we dog lovers have to suffer through occasional separations when our travel plans cannot include our pets (our cat has no desire to get in the car...). With Juliana, we know we have nothing to worry about, and that is a huge relief!”

“Siddhi was great! After having her watch Hazel earlier in the week, I felt so comfortable having her watch her for the weekend. She was flexible when my travel plans changed, sent frequent updates, and left my apartment very clean (probably better than it was when I left). Will book again!”

“Sam has been great with pups providing us much needed support in looking after him whilst we’re away. She has a great rapport with dogs and is very personable. We’ll be using her again!”

“I cannot recommend Ivana enough. My partner and I were nervous to leave our 8 m/o puppy for the first time and Ivana immediately put us at ease. Our pup is a little high-maintenance and required daily medication and extra patience on walks. Ivana knew right away how to administer the medication (even better than we did!) and was excellent with Junie on walks. We were in frequent communication throughout the two days and she sent tons of pics and videos per my request! We completely trust Ivana with the care of our Junie and would recommend her to anyone in need of a dog sitter. Junie already cant wait for her to come back!”

“Claudia is amazing! She sent us regular photo updates, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Our home was left spotless, and our dog seemed not only well cared for, but truly happy and relaxed, like he was on vacation too! It’s clear that Claudia genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. We would absolutely trust her again for pet sitting and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”


“Aisha was incredible! She was punctual with the agreed upon times, very communicative throughout house sitting with daily updates, and really showed care for my dog which meant everything. Aisha also tidied up my place, and even washed towels & blankets before she left. I would highly recommend her and am looking forward to having watch after my dog in the future.”

“Cody did such a fantastic job not just with Sadie, but also with checking in, sharing pictures, asking if she can (or can’t) do things like sit at brunch.. and the cherry on top is that I came home to an apartment that was exactly how I left it: clean and organized, as if Cody wasn’t even here. I can’t recommend Cody enough!”


“Alex stayed at our place for twelve nights to watch our two dogs, a lengthy stay that is a daunting task in itself. Several days before our trip, our 9 year old Boston Terrier, Harlow, had diarrhea due to a stomach issue. She had to go on several medications at various times of day. Alex not only handled the general care and current meds, but when another med was needed, went to the vet for us to get it. She also cooked chicken and made rice to keep up with the bland diet, another unforeseen responsibility she took care of for us. Also while she stayed at our apartment, the power and gas went out. Instead of taking care of an errand, Alex stayed home to ensure the dogs were okay and not left in the dark/silence. I do not have much family so my dogs are incredibly important to me. Leaving them, especially with one still recovering from her stomach issues was very difficult. Alex's poise and attentiveness put me at ease and allowed me to enjoy my time away. I 100% recommend Alex and would book her again in a heartbeat. The job ended up being much more than we expected and I couldn't be more grateful to have had Alex to navigate the various issues that arose. Alex is truly the best.”

About: Hi! We’re Spencer and Janet - a couple living in the East Village who can’t get enough of dogs. No matter the place or occasion, the second there’s a dog around, they have 100% of our attention. We don’t have a dog of our own (yet!), so whenever we get the chance to care for one, they’re treated like family. Lots of love, attention, and updates guaranteed. Whether your dog is staying overnight or joining us for a walk, you can trust they’ll be in good hands! We’ve both grown up around dogs and are the first to volunteer to care for friends’ and family members’ pups, so we’re comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether your dog loves long walks, park playtime, or lots of cuddles, we’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home with us. We offer flexible availability for walks, drop-ins, or dog sitting, including daytime, evenings, and weekends. For boarding, your pup will have company through the day and a cozy, welcoming space to relax in. One of us is almost always home, so your dog would rarely be left alone for long. We live in a clean and cozy two-bedroom apartment where dogs are welcome to roam and make themselves comfortable - the couch, the bed, wherever they please! We’re just around the corner from a dog park and dog-friendly cafe, and if you’re comfortable with it, we’d love to include safe social outings during your pup’s stay. Whether they’re happiest exploring the neighborhood or napping on the couch, we’ll follow their usual routine to help them feel right at home.
“Megan was an incredible sitter for our dog, Jude. It’s been several years since I left Jude in someone else’s care and quite frankly have had a lot of separation anxiety myself. After meeting Megan and seeing how quickly our dog warmed up to her, I took a chance and booked some Travel. I’m so glad I did. Megan took fantastic care of Jude, including special food and medicine instructions. She sent me pictures and updates every day. I told her very specific things that Jude likes to do and she did all of them. Our house was in fantastic shape when I came back, Everything neat and tidy. I wish I could hire her full time. I have already started planning another trip and will be excited to have Megan as our Sitter. She’s really awesome. If you’re on the fence, you should definitely give her a try.”

“Rebecca was great! She house sat for us and took care of my animals. She sent so many updates/pictures and my dog and cat seemed so happy with her. Will use her again :)”

“Bogdan was an excellent sitter for my reactive needy dog. He was relaxed and comfortable with her and treated her gently and with care. She adored him. Bogdan replied to my request and questions promptly and arrived early, which i appreciated alot. He listened carefully to all my instructions, which are complex re: locking the fridge and gate to the kitchen, which my dog can open. Bogdan gave her lots of attention while i was gone, and she had a wonderful time with him. I will look forward to booking him again, and recommend him to all.”

“Leila has stayed at my apartment a couple of times now to watch my dog. She is not only a great house guest (leaves everything clean, you’d never know she was there!) but is such a great dog sitter. She gives my dog so much attention, plays fetch with him for hours (his favorite!) and I always know he will be in good care with her.”

Linda was absolutely amazing with our senior King Charles. He liked her right away and it was the first time I’ve left him and not felt guilty and worried. She was so sweet and attentive with him and sent me updates and pictures several times a day- he looked so happy in all of them! I highly recommend!

Jasmine was a great trustable sitter. Not only was she reliable she was very helpful with meli and making sure she was fed and fully stimulated. she kept me updated and listened to every last request I’ve asked for. She also had respect for my home.Would recommend and inquire with again.

Paulette is phenomenal. She has watched our two very energetic dogs on several occasions, sometimes with little notice, and she has always been very responsive, respectful of our home, and great with our dogs! They love her and I’m always very comfortable leaving them with her.

Felipe is honestly our favorite dog sitter. Faust is a Belgian Shepherd and definitely not the easiest dog to look after, but Felipe handles her so well. He understands her personality, does training with her, and sends us detailed updates every day, which we really appreciate. He is also incredibly thoughtful and will help out around the house without us even asking. Most importantly, Faust absolutely loves him, and we trust him completely with her. We’re genuinely so sad that Felipe is moving to New York because it means we can’t book him anymore. We wish we could take him with us everywhere!

Cody is a true expert at connecting with dogs. From the moment he arrived to departure, I felt completely comfortable leaving Pace with him. He’s attentive to the small details, picked up on exactly what Pace needed, and kept me updated throughout the visit. I’d welcome him back anytime and recommend him without hesitation!

I had a great experience with him. He took excellent care of my two dogs while I was away, and they were happy and well looked after when I got home. My house was also clean, organized, and exactly as I left it. He was reliable, responsible, and provided outstanding service. I would definitely trust him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter.

Shriya provided very attentive care all day and anticipated what my pup needed. She sent lots of adorable updates and asked insightful questions. It’s tiring to keep up with my little puppy, and I’m so happy to see that she had a wonderful day of playing, sleeping, eating, crate training and potty training with Shriya. Thank you!

I am psychotic about my cat and work from home so he is quite needy - our standards are HIGH. I frankly did not think anyone could meet them and yet Steph EXCEEDS the bar. My nervous boy was immediately put at ease by Steph, who gently and lovingly cared for him for over a month while I was away. She patiently cleaned up his floofy pantaloons when he had a nervous accident the first day and carefully removed the small mats his furry body tends to get. She gladly met his constant bids for playtime and got out every toy he’s ever owned to entertain him. He and my apt(!) are in better shape than when I left. She even washed all the bedding and changed the sheets which was a godsend after a long trip. We don’t deserve Steph and I think my cat is asking if she can adopt him now. Thank you Steph!!!
