Mary went above and beyond taking care of my two cats while I was gone for a full week. One of my cats had a few accidents while I was away and Mary when the extra mile, ensuring he was okay and cleaning up the area. She also was extremely communicative, sent plenty of pictures, and gave my cat so much love! I could not recommend her enough!

This was my first time having Rosanna take care of my cats, and I was a bit nervous since one of my cats had recently experienced a urinary blockage and was on a special diet. He's also very sensitive to changes in his environment. However, Rosanna worked wonders! Within just a few days, Tuxi came out of his hiding spot and was greeting her at the door. In addition to looking after the cats, Rosanna also watered my plants, gave me helpful tips for encouraging Tuxi to eat his new food, and even helped with managing their hairballs. I would definitely trust Rosanna with my cats again in the future. Thank you so much, Rosanna!

About: Animals have been drawn to me my whole life, just as I have been drawn to them! I’ve had about every pet you could think of, and even went vegan for ethical reasons and never went back! Dogs have a very special place in my heart. I’m comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs, I will dedicate my time to loving them just like you do! If possible, I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you're away. I have a sweet dog of my own, a cockapoo, who is full of energy and curiosity! I couldn’t live without him. I work from home 4 days a week which allows me to spend lots of quality time playing in the park and making new furry friends! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. When I’m with your pets, I would love to take your precious babies for walks, to parks, or take on anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable!

About: In addition to having family dogs growing up, I've worked with dogs in multiple capacities. With experience in dog walking, grooming, and daycare, I'd love to be a part of your pup's life! I have training in reading dog body language and will be able to provide detailed notes to keep you as up to date as possible. I’ve worked with dogs ranging from puppies to seniors, small to large, so I am very comfortable caring for your pup no matter their age or size! I’ll also provide you with cute photos and videos to document your pup’s adventures :) The scheduling with my main job provides a lot of flexibility. During the week I have a lot of availability especially during typical business hours. Weekends are typically unavailable. I have experience with drop in visits and will always treat your home with professionalism and respect. I make sure to thoroughly check any specific notes you may have about upkeep or cleanliness of the space so I leave your home just as you left it!

Valerie is a wonderful person and care giver. My cat actually looked behind me for Valerie. My cuddles has never been interested in watching TV before. But Valerie found a channel on YouTube for him. She sent me pictures of him watching a cartoon fish program. She maintained his liter box and his feeding to perfection. It's no small feet to trust .

Siddhi is fabulous, I highly recommend her. She came through on short notice to sit my two cats during a holiday week, was extremely communicative, and took amazing pictures (seriously I have never gotten such good photos)! She was timely and helped us out by putting our packages inside and cleaning up unexpected pet messes. Thank you Siddhi!

About: Note: Please let me know if your dog is leash reactive/isn’t good with other dogs before we book. I’ve volunteered at dog shelters and love walking friends’ dogs around NYC! I’m experienced with various breeds of dogs and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and exercised. Whether your pup needs long walks, playtime, or just some company while you’re at work, I’ll treat them like my own. I’m responsible, communicative, and always send updates so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands. I have a 9-5 job, but I can pick which days I work from home (2/week)! I am always available on Friday, Saturdays, and Sundays, and can be available on specific days of the week with advance notice (3+ days). I’d love to help out! When caring for pets in their own home, I always follow their usual routine as closely as possible — from feeding and walks to playtime and cuddles. I make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection, and I keep their space clean and comfortable. I’m respectful of your home, reliable with instructions, and send regular updates with photos so you always know how your pets are doing. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I treat every pet like my own.

About: Growing up, my family had a number of pugs, where my love for little furry friends blossomed! With my family, I shared in the responsibility of walks and feedings on a regular schedule. From this experience, I am comfortable with energetic younger pups and elderly dogs alike! I am currently working on a not working while i navigate career pivot - so my schedule is very flexible during the week! I wanted to make some extra cash and fun by dog walking! I am already an avid East Village hiker, let's add a furry friend to the mix! I am a reliable, punctual pet carer. When in your home, I will be respectful and clean up any pet related mess. I will take your pet on long walks!

Cheryl was so phenomenal with my cat Gandalf and went above and beyond with his visit. Chubby Gandalf sadly in his older age got diabetes (as most older, overweight, cats do) and she was able to administer his insulin shots perfectly!

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs of all kinds. I take care of an elderly dog, elderly cat, and a quirky cat — so a lot of experience. I’m the kind of sitter/walker that tries his best to actually understand what the animal wants and give the best kind of experience and love to them as possible. I have experience with kittens, elderly cats, puppies, elderly dogs, this includes giving medicine, treating surface wounds, walking , etc etc. I really am a lover of all things furry and hope I can earn the trust of your furry companion. All care will be done by me If your new to Rover, you can get $20 off your first booking with my code! georgt18667 I am a recent graduate who starts full-time work in October, so I have an incredibly flexible schedule. At home, my partner and I have two cats (5yrs and 10yrs) and one dog (14yrs). I spend lots of time playing with all and usually walk the dog 3 times a day with a trip to the dog park once a day (unless he doesn’t want to) I am a very tidy person in my own home and will treat your home as such. I understand that your pet is the top-dog/cat of the home and will treat them as such. I will make sure they are happy and safe in their own space and make it look like I was never there.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up with pets taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and understanding each animal’s unique personality. Over the years, I’ve owned and cared for dogs and other animals, giving me hands-on experience with feeding, walking, grooming, playtime, administering basic care, and providing plenty of love and attention. In addition to being a lifelong pet owner, I have experience pet sitting and dog walking for friends, family, and neighbors. I understand that every pet has different needs, whether it’s an energetic puppy who loves long walks, a senior dog who prefers a slower pace, or a shy pet who needs extra patience and comfort. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owner is away. I treat every animal as if they were my own, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and reliable care. I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your furry family member, and I’m committed to providing dependable, compassionate service and regular updates for your peace of mind. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine because I currently have a very open and flexible schedule. This allows me to dedicate my time and attention to each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship. I’m available throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends, and can accommodate a variety of schedules. I enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to rather than just another task. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. My priority is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll carefully follow all of your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any special care your pet requires. I treat every home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. I’ll make sure doors and gates are always secure, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and outdoor time, and prioritize their safety at all times. I also believe communication is key, so I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to give you peace of mind while providing your pet with the same love, attention, and care I would give my own.

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.

She’s incredible. I’m highly disorganized and she was able to navigate all of the unanswered questions and provide the best care. My cat has digestive problems and she is always very diligent. I cut my trip short and came back a day early. Easily adjusted the visit schedule and it was an overall great experience. This is my 2nd time with her and 10/10 fabulous.
