Bryant was excellent with my senior dog. He was incredibly experienced in terms of my dog’s specific needs, including diaper changes and being mindful of her dementia traits. He was also very communicative and offered multiple updates throughout the day.

My elderly temperamental dog loved her time with Adeib. She immediately took to him, something that rarely happens. He kept me regularly up to date and I think the two of them had a great time. Would definitely book with Adeib again.

Shariana took amazing care of our cats while we were away. She was very communicative and checked in regularly. She was super conscientious about our cats’ habits and needs. We felt confident that our cats would be happy and kept good company. She also left our apartment tidy and clean while she stayed at our place. Highly recommend trusting Shariana with your cats/pets.

About: I’ve been taking care of my dog since she was a tiny puppy, and I treat her like my own little child. I do the same for other people’s pets too - I love to give them food, give them some cuddles, and make sure they’re happy. And always remember to give your furry friend a special treat! As a remote worker, I find flexibility in my work schedule. I enjoy incorporating outdoor walks into my daily routine, which allows me to connect with nature and exercise while having the flexibility to do so with my dog. Through play, companionship, and nourishment. Will stay by the dog and keep the place organized and clean so it is a fair space for the house and the dogs

About: Hello! My name is Patty, and I’m a lifelong cat lover who truly enjoys caring for animals. I have two cats of my own, Sol and Luna, both two years old, so I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. I’ve cared for them since they were kittens, and I’m comfortable working with cats of all ages, from playful little ones to more independent adults. Pets have always been a big part of my life, and I know that each one has their own unique personality and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to adapt to whatever makes your pet feel safest and happiest, whether that’s playtime, quiet companionship, or sticking closely to their routine. I’m currently a student at Columbia University, which gives me a flexible schedule for drop-ins and house sitting. I’m also happy to help with small extras like watering plants while you’re away. I’m open to last-minute bookings whenever possible—just send me a message, and we can find a time that works! I’d love to help make your time away stress-free, knowing your pet is in caring and capable hands. I am a full time student at Columbia, so I have a very flexible schedule. I am specifically looking for opportunities to pet sit over the summer when I will have the most availability, allowing me to stop by as often as you would want me to. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I pay close attention to their routines, whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, getting in plenty of playtime, or just providing calm companionship. I’m experienced with different personalities and energy levels, so I adapt to what each pet needs. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or extra patience I am here for it. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are always my top priority.

About: I have fostered a 4 month old poodle for 2 months. I’d say I personally have more experience babysitting than pet sitting but that being said, I have a huge heart for nurturing and caring I am currently working a part time job but my work days are only on Thursdays and Fridays in the afternoon so I have a lot of time on my hands! Unfortunately I can not host pet sitting at my home for my land owner doesn’t allow pets inside, but if I were to work at your home, I would act accordingly with respect!

About: I have taken care of dogs for years. I can and have trained puppies, am accustomed to essentially any lifestyle a dog can live—have been with active dogs, low-energy dogs; I can administer medicine and baths. I’ve got you covered. I work part time currently, so I have plenty of free time to accommodate your needs. I typically work mornings, so evenings and overnights are no issue. I can do short/long walks and runs if needed; I am quite versed at orchestrating playtime, keeping a routine, quick training sessions if needed and great at balancing mental and physical stimulation to keep active dogs engaged.

Asel was extremely sweet, professional, punctual and responsive! It was my first time leaving my babies with anyone who isn’t family and I was so anxious! Asel did an amazing job not just keeping me updated, but keeping my babies happy and following the care guide provided. I 100% recommend Asel to anyone who wants to keep their babies safe and happy while away.

Neil was a fantastic house sitter. Very communicative. Neil has been a great dog walker and this was the first time he dog-sat for me and I felt really comfortable leaving my dog for a few days even though he had an infection on his paw. Always appreciative of Neil’s Services.Neil was respectful of my personal space and was happy to find my apartment exactly how I left it.

Allie was so kind and wonderful with my senior pup, Mr. Billy. She was very thoughtful, cheerful, and Billy appreciated her energy and engagement right away (nuzzling up with a little tail wag). I would highly recommend Allie as a Rover sitter, especially if you have dogs who require medications or have unique needs/quirks. Billy and I are so very grateful for Ms. Allie!

Ellie was absolutely amazing. It was my first time leaving my dogs, and as someone who struggles with anxiety, I was incredibly nervous. From the very beginning, Ellie not only took wonderful care of my dogs but also put my mind at ease. She kept me updated with constant messages and photos, and never once made me feel like I was asking too much. Her patience, kindness, and communication meant the world to me. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Ellie!
