“Amazing!! Best catsitter ever!! Ivy took amazing care of my cat while I was away for several weeks. When I returned, my apartment was cleaner than when I left. I would recommend Ivy to anyone looking for a kind, caring, & compassionate pet sitter.”


“Anna was awesome! Very communicative and my dogs (and rabbit) loved having her stay with them. I was out of the country and she made sure I was updated the whole time. I felt very comfortable and relaxed :) we will definitely be booking with Anna again!”

“Thanks a lot for taking care of Boris, Anesiya!”


About: I have been caring for dogs ever since I can remember and in particular I started caring for them professionally around 5 years ago. I have yet to meet a dog I could not handle, even ones that people would call big and scary. I believe this comes from a firmly held belief that if you treat a dog right, they will stand by you forever. I am experienced with dogs from young to old, small to large, and docile to super hyper. I attempt to accommodate any and all requests to the best of my abilities. In addition I would be more than happy to meet a prospective client free of charge before watching their pet. In general, I am available nightly starting at 7 PM except for Fridays where I am unavailable. Wednesday nights and the Saturday nights I am available from 9:30 PM and onwards. Sundays, I am available all day. In general, I do not watch dogs in my own home. In regards to the pet Owner’s home I do whatever I can to accommodate all safety requests and needs.

“Hana did a great. She stayed with my furbaby for a week in my house and left everything neat and clean for me and left notes as well. She also sent me pictures every day which made me feel much more at ease while I was gone. My furbaby loved her so much that when I got home, she ran around the house looking for her. Thanks so much Hana!”


About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and naturally connect with them. I’m patient, calm, and always adjust to each dog’s personality, whether they’re playful, shy, or older and need a gentler approach. Your pup will be safe, loved, and treated like family. I’m a part-time college student, so I have a flexible schedule and lots of time to spend with your pups! I’m available for sitting on weekdays and weekends, except Thursdays between 7AM–4PM. I also offer overnight stays if your dog needs a little extra company and care. When I’m staying in someone’s home, I keep things as close to your dog’s normal routine as possible. I give them lots of attention, make sure they get their walks, meals, playtime and just hang out with them so they don’t feel alone. I’m clean and super respectful of your space, and I’ll always treat your pup like they’re my own while you’re away.

About: Hi I’m Jess! I have been an animal lover my whole life and saw Rover as a wonderful opportunity to meet some cute little friends and help make some extra money to help me out. Pets have always had a special place in my heart and I would love to meet some of yours! I have had many animals throughout my life from various types of fish, bearded dragon, hamsters, guinea pigs, a small dog (shitzu- Maltese who just passed away last year at 16 years old), a bird Connie (sun conure - 10 years old) and 2 cats Jack and Jill (13 years old). Many friends and family have trusted me to care for and love their pets when they need a little extra help. I am a very reliable and loving pet sitter with a pretty open schedule. I am currently unemployed and looking for a new job after the summer is over so my schedule is pretty free. I primarily live in Babylon, but my spend more than half of my week normally in Long Beach because I play volleyball and have a lot of friends living there that I stay with! So I am open to helping in any nearby neighborhoods. Whether you need me for daily dog walks/ feedings, or want to take a nice vacation but need your animals and house looked after - I am your girl. Please let me know if you have any questions or special requests and I will do my best to help you out! I am currently unemployed and looking for a new job after the summer is over so my schedule is pretty free. I primarily live in Babylon, but my spend more than half of my week normally in Long Beach with at my boyfriends house because I play volleyball and have a lot of friends here! So I am open to helping in any nearby neighborhoods. I grew up with many different animals and always treated them with love and affection. I will make sure they are walked on time, get some play/active time, and of course always have food and water. Anything that will make the client and the pet happy :)

About: I’m a long time cat and dog lover with over 10 years of experience taking care of furry friends! I have been the go to caretaker for friends, family, and coworkers who travel often. I spent the last 4 years frequently boarding a pair of sibling cats while their owner went on vacation, but since moving into a smaller apartment that does not allow pets, I’ve had the pleasure of pet/house sitting in other people homes. My experience ranges from freshly spayed kittens to freshly spayed senior pups. You can count on long walks, daily litter cleaning, playtime, and an extraordinary level of care for your loved one. 🐶🐱 (PLEASE BE AWARE THAT I WORK 9-5PM MON-FRI. I CAN STILL PROVIDE HOUSE/PET SITTING SERVICES, BUT YOUR PET MUST BE OKAY STAYING ALONE DURING THESE HOURS:) ) I’m currently working 9-5pm Mon-Fri and would be happy to pet/house sit before and after work! I am also available on weekends for sitting services. For walking services, I am available weekdays after 5pm and weekends until 6pm. Weekday routines include morning walks for your pup and play time of course! I will feed your dog/cat before I leave and make sure their litter is cleaned if applicable. You can expect a long walk right after work and shorter evening outings, depending on your usual schedule! I’m a tidy person and will leave your house cleaner than when you left :) Weekends are full days of caring for your furry loved ones and local adventures :)

“Valeria is such an amazing dog sitter. She is communicative and so sweet with our dogs. We came home to two very happy boys! We would absolutely recommend her and will happily have her watch Gyro and Charlie again.”



“Tatiana is amazing with our dog. She is very committed and on time. She spends time with our puppy playing, feeding her and most importantly loving her and caring for her like one of her own. Highly recommended.”


“Kelley watched our 2 pups for the day yesterday. She was amazing with our pups, including a 9 week old puppy. She was very pleasant and easy to deal with. She sent us frequent updates and pictures. It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Kelley. She put our minds at ease.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was raised with medium to large sized dogs. More broadly I spent 3 years helping friends with dog sitting duties when they were out of town. Especially experienced with younger dogs full of energy. I’m full time dedicated to the care of fur babies. I am able to take them on walks at any time of day- considering heat/temperatures or their individual needs I provide individual care for each client based on their individual needs. Some fur babies need more attention than others or have special needs that need to be considered on a daily or weekly etc basis.
