About: Hi! My name is Neil D. Wallace and I love dogs. Dogs make me happy. My favorite dogs are Blue Staffies and Pugs. I have most experience walking Doodles, Pitbulls, Huskies and Chihuahas. I also communicate everything, and promise an open book attitude with owners. All hours until i book my next show. This is just a side hustle when demand is low in the acting world, which will change, with my contribution. No matter what dog I take care of, there is always one thing in common. The owner is always right. Even if I think something might work better for the pups, the owner knows best; open communication is key.
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. They deserve to be loved in the same way they love us. Personally, I was raised with a cat and he lived till he was 21! (Insane, I know.) Volunteered in a cat shelter in my teens, actively donate to the charity A.C.T - “Animal’a Can’t Talk.” My father’s side had a variety of pets over the years. Always two dogs, two cats. Dogs have always been attracted to my playful demeanor; ironically once they’re done being nuts I provide a calming effect with them. I trust them, they trust me. I have the disney princess effect. I’ve watched all ages from puppies to 20 year old dogs - if I’m dealing with puppies, tip me well bc they CHEW 😂 I give medicine, I’m patient, studied behavior in college, I work in an emergency room. The difference being animals are nicer 😂 Open to any questions always and I am flexible with time. I also always send tons of videos and pictures. Unsure if it’s more for you or for me (they’re all so stinkin’ cute!) I work in an emergency room from 3-11, part time. I will have mornings and afternoons to assist you with care for your loved one. My schedule is flexible and I respond quickly to texts and messages. My job is to keep your pet on their schedule and keep them safe and do what is asked of me. This is YOUR pet, not mine. If I notice a particular behavior, I will certainly let you know and keep you informed about all activities. How much food I gave, send pictures of your animal. Whatever makes you feel safest having me with your animal is my main goal. And that they are loved and fed and happy!
“Cynthia was amazing with my cats! She watched them once a few months back, and when she came to watch them for us while we were getting married, my cats immediately recognized her and ran right up to her. You can tell she really takes care of the pets she cares for and they feel safe and happy around her!”

“Amanda was amazing with Flint! We had a pretty last minute situation and she came through for us with no hesitation. She was super attentive, communicative, and really took initiative during her drop-ins. She noticed things, checked in with us when needed, and went above and beyond without us having to ask. I felt comfortable knowing Flint was in good hands while we were away. Definitely someone I’ll be booking again in the future. Highly recommend Amanda!”

“Hemei did a great job taking care of our cat. She did everything we asked and was very communicative. We felt very comfortable being away with our cat in her care and would definitely book her again.”

About: Feathers, Fur, and Everything In Between Hey there! I’m Joanne, and I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by animals. My Experience: * Bird Mom: I’ve owned exotic birds for 15 years. * Vet Assistant Perks: I spent time working in a vet clinic, so I have experience working with cats and dogs. I know what to look for to make sure everyone is healthy and safe. * Shelter Volunteer : I’ve spent plenty of time volunteering at shelters, which means I’m great with small animals and exotics. My Philosophy: Whether I’m hanging out with your cat, walking your dog, or making sure your bird is chirping, I treat your pets like they’re my own family. You’ll get plenty of photos and updates so you know they’re having a good time while you’re away. Bottom line: Your pet’s comfort is my #1 priority. Let’s chat and see if I’m the right fit for your family ! By day, I’m working at the hospital, but in my off-hours, I’m all about the animals. Since my work life is all about care and attention to detail, I bring that same energy to looking after your pets during my free time. I’ve spent 15 years keeping exotic birds, and I currently have two budgies of my own. They get flight time, fresh water, and a spread of fresh veggies every single day—and I bring that same "spoiled and healthy" standard to every pet I watch. Whether you have a dog, a cat, or a feathered friend, I’ll make sure your pet gets the same experience. I make it my mission to ensure every pet in my care gets the exercise they need and their meals exactly how they like them.
“Vanessa took great care of our cat Teddy while we were away. We appreciated her questions in our meet and greet and her attention to detail in his care. Teddy misses her already!”

About: Independent experience of raising my own dog and her litters. All properly trained and well grown up. Have a car to transport cuties if needed I’m currently a part time as a dance instructor so I have plenty of time to take little cuties out for walks and playtime! Especially I have a dog myself that I take out a lot for already! I also have a golden retriever that can keep furry cuties company and have a back yard and close grass fields nearby if needed. Have a car to transport and head to dog parks!
“Christina is thoughtful and sent amazing photos of her visits with the fur babies. My dog is very old and grumpy but was won over by her! I felt at ease and able to enjoy my vacation!!”


“Shibo was absolutely amazing! I have two male cats, and one of them I had just adopted 10 days before leaving for my trip. He was very skittish when I first got him, but he warmed up to Shibo right away. My other cat took a liking to him immediately as well—who wouldn’t! Shibo was so wonderful, giving my cats the attention they needed while I was away. In the past, I relied on neighbors and people just stopping by to feed and check on them, but my experience with Shibo has completely changed my perspective. It is worth every penny to have someone as great as him looking after your fur babies! When I returned, I could see the difference in my fluffy companions in the best way as this is very early in their introduction phase. I had peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. Shibo provided fantastic updates and beautiful photos, making it clear that my cats had a wonderful time with their new friend. I have full trust in Shibo as I also came home to find everything exactly as I expected. I highly recommend Shibo for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! Especially cats.”

About: I’m an experienced pet parent and a proud cat mom of 6 cats. Caring for multiple cats has helped me develop a strong understanding of different personalities, behaviors, and individual needs. Beyond caring for my own cats, I have provided in-home cat care for friends, including caring for two cats while they were away. I have also gained professional pet-sitting experience through another pet care platform, where I regularly care for an 8-year-old cat for a repeat client who has trusted me as her go-to sitter. My experience includes feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, grooming, medication support when needed, and providing companionship for cats with different temperaments. I understand that every cat has their own routine and personality, and I always take the time to make them feel safe and comfortable in their own home. When caring for your pets, I treat them like my own. I will provide thoughtful updates, photos, and attentive care so you can feel confident and relaxed while you’re away. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. As a cat mom of 6, I’m used to maintaining consistent feeding schedules, cleaning litter boxes, monitoring behavior, and providing daily play and companionship. Outside of caring for my own cats, I set aside dedicated time for pet sitting visits, including feeding, refreshing water, cleaning up, playtime, and sending updates to owners. I understand that pets feel most comfortable with consistency and routine, so I always make sure they receive reliable and attentive care. I’m able to plan my schedule around pet care needs and provide dependable visits while treating every pet with the same patience and attention I give my own. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I understand that cats especially feel safest in their own environment, so I follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, litter box care, playtime, grooming, and any special needs. Before each visit, I take time to learn about the pet’s personality, habits, favorite activities, and any concerns the owner may have. During visits, I provide attentive care, spend quality time with the pet, keep their space clean, and make sure they receive plenty of patience and affection. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they are away.
“Antoinette was wonderful. She stayed in communication with me while I was away and went above and beyond to make sure my cats were fed, happy and comfortable. I would absolutely use her again !”

About: I have a dog and 2 cats! Mochi the maltipoo is 7 years old, and I've taken care of her since she was 4 weeks old. Mango the tabby is about 4 years old, and I've enjoyed caring for her every minute. Miso is 4 and was rescued by our local shelter. Friends and family have relied on me to help with their pets :) Available to walk your dog(s) to suit your schedule best. I can also drop in at any time of day. Just let me know :) I make sure that my pets have access to clean water and a feeding schedule. I walk my dog 2 times a day and play with them every day. They're safe in my hands :)
About: With experience caring for dogs during extended stays of up to 30 days, I understand how important it is for pups to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I provide attentive, personalized care through daily walks, playtime, companionship, and maintaining their usual routines as much as possible. I love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and preferences! My goal is to make every dog feel right at home and give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry friend is in good hands. Since I am self-employed, I can offer flexible care. I’m available Monday-Friday, 10am-6pm (Wednesdays after 3pm), plus some evenings and weekends if needed. Happy to work around your pup’s needs! Safety, comfort, and fun are my top prioritie. I always want to make sure every pup feels loved and secured. I maintain clear communication with owners at all times!
“Jason was very responsive, communicative and punctual. He treated our pets like his own, and spent plenty of time engaging with them and keeping them company, which was very appreciated. I would highly recommend hiring Jason to take care of your pets whenever you need a sitter.”

Booked Charlie for a last minute 1 hour drop-in visit, due to unexpected/urgent appointments that took me out for the day. My pup is a recently adopted rescue with some reactivity and other idiosyncrasies, and I wasn’t comfortable leaving her with an unknown boarder or daycare. I was upfront about Lala’s issues-in-progress and Charlie was gracious, accommodating and communicative. During the hour-long visit, he sent plenty of photos and met my pup where she was at. Visit went smoothly and I was able to focus on my rather stressful day without having to worry too much about her. Thanks again.

Nusta was absolutely incredible. I truly could not have asked for a better person to care for our dog while we were overseas. She went above and beyond in every possible way - taking amazing care of him, vacuuming and helping keep our home clean, bringing in our mail and Farmer’s Dog delivery, and even helping me during an emergency when I lost my debit card. Most importantly, our dog was SO happy. He had the biggest smile on his face when we got home, and it was obvious how comfortable and loved he felt with her. This was an extended trip overseas during such an important time in our lives - we got engaged while we were away - and because of Nusta, I genuinely did not have to worry about a thing back home. I would recommend her to absolutely everyone on this app, without hesitation. We will definitely continue using her because, at this point, our dog has officially welcomed her into the family. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Nusta, for taking such incredible care of him and of our home. ❤️

Carolina is AMAZING! I just recently moved into my apartment, and was anxious about finding someone to take care of my dog (Staffie mix) and my cat - both senior pets - during a trip to visit family. I'm so glad I chose Carolina, she was absolutely fantastic - extremely professional, caring, and communicative throughout the visit, and I could tell from the first photo she sent that my pets were in great hands. The neighbors in my new building also had great things to say about her once I returned. I'm so grateful for her expert care, and definitely plan to book her again. Highly recommended!

Amanda was amazing with Flint! We had a pretty last minute situation and she came through for us with no hesitation. She was super attentive, communicative, and really took initiative during her drop-ins. She noticed things, checked in with us when needed, and went above and beyond without us having to ask. I felt comfortable knowing Flint was in good hands while we were away. Definitely someone I’ll be booking again in the future. Highly recommend Amanda!

Fadong was excellent!! I needed someone very last minute and reached out to several people early in the morning, and he replied immediately and assured me my boy would be in the best hands. And he meant it! He was very communicative, on time, and very attentive and loving with my Biggie. I am very happy with his care and highly recommend him to any other person looking for high quality care for their pups.

Lily is the absolute best sitter! She is a warm and wonderful person and takes such good care of my 14 year old girl. I have total trust in her to take care of Bella when I’m not home and at work. She always shares the sweetest photos of Bella and goes above and beyond with taking care of her. She is a reliable, trustworthy, honest, good person. Cannot recommend Lily enough!

If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Fresh Meadows choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
