“Alexa was such a great find. She was so loving and caring with my cat miss Jasmine and sent great updates and photos for each visit. I would definitely recommend her!”
“We've used Wen several times to watch our kitty and she's always been punctual, thorough, and most importantly - our kitty loves her! She's always showing Wen her belly, which is a huge sign of trust. Additionally, Wen is flexible and is able to accommodate changes in our schedule. We're very happy with her care 🙂”
“Luz and Adriana did a truly wonderful job caring for my cats. Strong attention to detail, kind and friendly manner, sense of safety they provided made all the difference. I felt completely at ease knowing my cats were in such good hands.””
“Clifmon took great of my two cats. He was polite, professional, and communicated with photos while I was away. When I came home from my trip, my apartment was clean and my cats were relaxed, completely themselves, and totally fine! I highly recommend using him to take care of your pets!”
“Michelle has now pet sat for my cats twice and both times, she did a phenomenal job. Her notes and pictures were very helpful and appreciated. She is also does a very good job following the pet sitting notes when it comes to medication and feeding times. She is as ways very responsible and timely with her updates.”
“Rachel is the best and would highly recommend Rachel to everyone! My cats absolutely love her and I've never seen them warmed up to someone so quickly. Rachel's Rover cards are always so detailed with all the helpful callouts and sweet that I can picture my cats having a good time with her. Also, we have a cat who would create a mess when upset (or even sometimes when he just wants to do so...) and we are so grateful that Rachel takes great care of it - she even shared her tips to us and took extra steps to help prevent. We are so glad that we've found Rachel and she has been our pet sitter every time we leave town now. I'm sure my cats are very happy to see her too!”
“Marin was absolutely wonderful while caring for Liono and Panthra. From the very first meet and greet, our cats warmed up to her immediately, which gave us such peace of mind. She was incredibly communicative, sent regular updates and photos, and truly made us feel comfortable knowing they were in great hands. It’s clear she genuinely cares. I would 10/10 recommend her and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future! 🐾💛”
About: Hi friends, I’m Lani & dogs mean the absolute world to me 💌 I bond with them until they feel like my very best friend, and I will treat yours as such. I have owned three different breeds, and during college, worked at Shake a Paw Rescue and Adoption Center. I'm comfortable with grooming, walking, pet-sitting, and even overnight boarding, ensuring every dog in my care feels safe, loved, and well-cared-for! When taking on a new boarding/house-sitting client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It’s a great way to chat face-to-face about your care expectations and make sure that we’re all a good fit for one another! No one knows your dog better than you do, so these open lines of communication are a must with me. Offerings: - Fresh pet-safe vegetables & fruits upon request 🥕🫐 - Playtime, cuddles, and exercise (love running & swimming!) *2 min from Morningside Park* 🐕🦺 - Live photo and video updates every walk, meal, or goofy moment 📸 - A clean, safe home with HEPA Air filters & filtered water🚰 - Attention to meds or special needs 💊 (Just let me know all details in advance so I can make sure your pet is 100% comfy) I’m currently in school part-time, so I’m incredibly flexible and the girl you can call on last minute! I can board on weekends, house sit multiple days a week (1-2 days notice) and offer multiple daily walks/visits. I am comfortable giving CPR if ever necessary (knock on wood!) and have 5+ highly rated Vets within just 2 miles of my home in Morningside Heights. I will always adjust my game plan based on your furry friend’s anxiety and comfort levels. I want them to feel as safe with me as they are when they’re with you!
“Amy is the most thorough, trustworthy, and reliable pet sitter I could imagine! I've never used Rover before and have a 7 month old kitten- Amy was incredible this last week for us, even through new years eve and new years day. She was so considerate and came before booking twice to meet peanut, once when we first booked and again a few weeks later before we left for our trip. She took pictures every day and sent it to us, which made my day. In the pictures I can tell my cat loves her and she came out when shes usually afraid of people. I'm so glad we found Amy and I cannot recommend her enough. ❤”
“Alyssa is always dependable and goes above and beyond to make sure our cats are cared for. I trust her in my home and feel so fortunate we found her. Having a reliable pet sitter makes travel easier!”
“Stephanie was terrific with my cat Coco. I’m very happy to have her take care of my cat when we go on vacation. Very reliable and has a good sense with animals. Coco is not the friendliest kitty out there! I definitely will be rebooking with Stephanie each time we go away!”
About: I offer genuine love and care for your pets making sure they are comfortable and content while you are away. I will communicate effectively, provide any updates, and address any concerns immediately. With a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to put my full attention to your fur babies! Pet care is a natural part of my day. The safety of your pets is my number one priority, I always make sure to keep them as close to their regular routine as possible when caring for them.
“Aashree was great! She responded quickly to all of my messages, came to my home promptly for key pick-up and instructions, as well as on her visits. She sent great pictures of my critters - it was wonderful to see them were being well taken care of. Thank you!”
“Emily was a great sitter for my senior cat. She was very responsive and administered her medications, including subq fluids, gave her lots of cuddles and followed her somewhat complicated feeding schedule like a pro! She even went above and beyond, spending a little extra time with my cat during her drop in visits. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi, I’m Ksenia! I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had a big Newfoundland dog along with cats, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Today, our home is still full of animals. We have a cockapoo, a bunny, and two guinea pigs, so caring for pets is truly part of my everyday routine. I’m gentle, patient, and attentive, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, calm, and happy. I take this responsibility seriously and always treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits easily into my weekday routine. I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits during the week, whether your pet needs a potty break, feeding, playtime, or some extra company while you’re away. I enjoy calm, relaxed care and focus on being reliable, present, and consistent. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I follow any instructions carefully and make sure dogs are walked calmly and securely. I’m attentive, respectful of your home and routine, and always keep pets supervised. I communicate clearly and want pet parents to feel fully comfortable and confident while their pet is in my care.
“Phil was the best! He was very attentive, kind, and communicative. Mylo was very lucky to have Phil as a catsitter. Will definitely work with him again in the future, and I highly recommend him to everyone!”
About: I grew up with dogs and took care of the dogs in the neighborhood for extra cash in high school. I love animals and I even found a way to incorporate that love into my undergrad psychology education at Oswego with courses in canine behavior. I'm currently a work from home graduate student working towards my MA in psychology so I have plenty of felxibility to help you fill in the gaps for your pet care needs. I live in a quiet building across the street from a park for routine exercise if your fur baby happens to be staying with me. There's always time for a good walk and a nap.

Johanna is an absolute gem! Our cat Winnie is the epitome of a scaredy cat, but Johanna has such a kind, patient way about her that never fails to coax Winnie out of hiding. It's clear she genuinely understands anxious pets and knows how to make them feel safe and comfortable. Beyond her natural way with cats, Johanna is wonderful with communication and has been a great thought partner in figuring out the best care for Winnie. She's reliable, thoughtful, and truly cares about the animals she looks after. We're so grateful to have found her and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy pet sitter!
We’ve been working with Nicole for the past month for twice-weekly litter box maintenance, and she has been fantastic. She is reliable, communicative, and very considerate, especially around health and safety. This support has made a real difference for us, and it’s such a relief knowing the cats’ care is in capable hands. She’s professional, kind, and clearly takes pride in her work. We’re so grateful to have found her and would absolutely recommend her.
I cannot recommend Payton enough! She immediately picks up on my shy cat's body language and knows exactly what to do to help her feel comfortable. She also sends the most wonderful photo updates, which provide such peace of mind! I will absolutely continue booking her for all my future trips.
Claire (& Patricio) were great! They helped me out of two very short notice trips, and were extremely accommodating with my awkward travel plans. They were great with my two cats, took banging pics, and are friendly to chat with the whole time. I would have been losing my mind without them!! 5/5!
This is our first time using Rover and we felt so lucky that we found Karen. Karen takes care of our pets not only with full of experience and patience, but also with love and sentiment. She’s always so considerate, thoughtful and responsive and she gets along with both of our pets so well just after a couple of visits. We trust her 100% with our pets and will definitely rebook with her next time we are out of town. I highly recommend Karen.
Robin took great care of Panama over the past two weeks and was attentive to his needs throughout. She spent time playing with him and made sure he was comfortable while I was away, which gave me real peace of mind. Robin also kept me updated with regular messages and flagged any concerns promptly. I truly appreciated her reliability and care, and I would happily recommend her as a pet sitter.
