“Yingyan is wonderful. She took care of my two cats for a week. She was patient with my shy guys, and very conscientious about refilling food and water dishes. The place was spotlessly clean on my return even though my cats are messy. The cats were very happy to have her.”
“I am so grateful that Paige was our sitter while we’re on our trip. Every visit she updated us and sent pictures. She clarified on anything she was unsure of and was so kind. I will be using Paige again in the future. Thank you!!”
About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was born and my first move after getting my own place was to adopt my own dog, Phoenix. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes and needs and am very eager to help with yours! I work remote full time. I also have my own dog, Phoenix, so I am always out walking him and taking him on different adventures. I have a decent sized inside place to play and also a fenced in backyard for dogs to run in. I try and provide as much mental and physical enrichment as possible.
“I highly recommend Jessica! This is the second time she has watched my dogs. I have to hire someone to give my dog his meds at night if I am not around, and I trust her to do it! She is very kind and keeps you updated during the check in.”
“What a great experience we had with Ashley watching our two dogs, three cats and guinea pig! Easy going, flexible time wise and punctual. Our animals love her and we will use her services in the future. Thank you Ashley!”
“I wish I could give Erinn more than 5 stars! She was so incredibly sweet with our dogs, they clearly loved their time with her, she managed to send photos of the two of them (in the same frame, which I’ve never been able to accomplish) every day. She took the absolute best care of them, we had zero worries while on our trip. Thank you Erinn!”
“Chengjie is amazing! She was prompt, communicative, and most importantly, so good with our mini Australian Shepherd, Bodie. She was very attentive, caring, and sent adorable photos from their time together. We will definitely be booking her again!”
About: I have dog walking experience for others as well as being a dog owner. I believe and feel that dogs are important to people and families, given the warmth and generous attention dogs give to their owners. I treat other dogs as if they were my own. You can be assured your instructions for your dog s needs and routines will be followed and that your dog will respond well to me. I am currently a college student, only working on my thesis to graduate in December, leaving me a lot of time to care for your dog. My references will tell you I am super responsible and caring.
About: I’ve dealt with dogs of all ages. I also used to work at a pet store that’s locally.. petco in Glen cove taught me a lot I’m currently working part time, but I have availability to where I can go home at pretty much whatever time during the day as well as I’m off on weekends I care for the pets as if they’re my own . I made sure they are fed. I make sure they go on multiple walks. I make sure they get to play and I make sure they get to go to the bathroom. If they aren’t comfortable, I do everything in my ability to make sure I get them to that point
About: I've always loved spending time with dogs since I was a kid. Raising and training Remy, a Vizsla male with unlimited energy (who is now 5), has fast tracked my dog care experience. He's a LOT of dog and I absolutely love it. A few years ago, I started caring for dogs over Rover. It's been a wonderful experience for us, and I've especially enjoyed learning how to communicate with dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personality types. Cats are good people too! For cats I'm happy to provide drop-in services and potentially house sitting if it works with my schedule. I'm in between professions now working a lot from home on Long Island. I have a flexible schedule over this summer in particular. I'm especially keen to take on dog walking clients and check-ins, though boarding or day care is possible depending on the circumstances. I'm happy to adjust to you and your dog's needs in terms of exercise, exposure to other dogs, and on/off leash comfort levels. I'm currently living in a house with a fenced in yard and plenty of comfy spots for dogs to relax. (Your dog would be allowed everywhere ours is, which is everywhere.) I'd love to chat over the phone or by text to figure out if my services would work for your pet and if they would be a good fit for our household!
About: Hi, I'm Natalia and I love animals. I have grown up with my own dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old. Even birds too. Taking care of them is taking care of your family. So I will be sure your pet(s) have everything they need while in my care. And will be treated with the same love, kindness, and affection as I do with my dogs and cats. I will always check if the pavement outside is too hot for their paws on sunny days and if it's also too cold/salted on other days to avoid harm to their paws. I do not have experience with newborn puppies, but I am a quick learner if given a chance. I'm currently a freelancer, so my schedule is flexible daily. Any time of day throughout the seasons, I'm available to aid in caring for the pets in your lives. While I'm not accepting other people's pets within my home, I'm open to caring for your pets in their safe space. Just like us, they have a routine, which I would be happy to learn and follow.
About: I'm a lifetime dogs owner, and I'm available to care for your pet. I have experience with cats and dogs of all sizes. Visits and boarding. I'm self-employed and very flexible with my schedule. And I have my Mom that is home 24/7. 😉 So very flexible and accommodating. Contact me with all your questions. I'd visit your pet at his/her home, and I offer boarding at my place for small dogs. I'd follow all your instructions and give your pet best care and supervision. Your pet will feel comfortable and loved.
About: Hi! I’m Amanda :) I have two hotdogs that I am obsessed with & would love to care for and walk your dog! Call today I’m currently a SAHDM! Stay at home dog mom that is. Let me walk your cute pups if you can’t be home. They are in the best hands. While taking care of your dog, they will be the happiest they have ever been. Giving dogs something to look forward to in the middle of the day while their owner is not present is what I able to do.
About: Hi my name is Tay! I’ve cared for animals of all kinds—dogs, cats, ducks, even horses—since I was young. I had a Lhasa Apso for 14 years who was truly my best friend, so I know what it’s like to love a pet like family. I’ve also pet sat for friends, neighbors, and family over the years and now care for three former stray cats I took in myself. I’m comfortable with senior pets, shy or nervous animals, and those with specific routines or medical needs. Whether it’s a playful walk, a calm cuddle, or some patient care for an anxious pet—I’m here to show up with love, respect, and consistency every time. I’m currently in grad school for social work and also completing an internship, but I make it a priority to keep my schedule as flexible as possible. I love working pet care into my routine and can often adjust my availability around classes and other commitments. If there’s a way I can make it work to care for your pets, I’ll do my best to be there I care for every pet like they’re my own. I’ll always make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable—whether we’re hanging out at your place or going for a walk. I’ll keep you updated with plenty of messages and cute pictures so you never have to wonder how your fur baby is doing. Their happiness and well-being is my top priority
About: While caring for two big doodles of her own, Madie has spent the last few years on Rover as a dedicated and excited walker! As a spunky Fashionista, and Musical Theatre major from Atlanta GA, she’s outgoing and works well with any breed, age, household, and attitude! Madie wants to get to know your fluffy friend next! I’m currently in school at LIU in New York and come home to Georgia for breaks. I am able to care for your fluffy friends about 5 days a week! Including walking, playing, feeding and more!! If your pet is home alone and needs some playtime I am available to come hangout with them and maybe even bring my own dogs for some company!
“Carina was amazing with my two cats. She visited them everyday, fed them, cleaned the litter, pet and played with them. I was so happy to receive photos and videos and see my babies well and happy. I highly recommend Carina to all the cat owners out there!”
About: I have been pet sitting for about 7 years. I have experience caring for animals with complex needs (such as medication administration). I will love your pets like my own and keep them happy until you get home! I work full time M-F and can drop in on your pets in the morning and in the evening. I am available all weekends with 1-2 day notice. I love animals and would be happy to adjust my schedule wherever I can. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs of my own. My dogs graze however their schedule can be adjusted if your pet is not a grazer and reactive to food.
About: Own a Shepherd-Chow mix and a short hair cat. I also routinely babysit for a family friend's golden retriever and house sit while they are away on vacations. I house sit for a friend with 3 cats on occasion. I also have experience giving shots to animals with medical issues if necessary. I work part time during the summer and am looking to supplement my teaching career. Would love to meet you and your animal(s) if you’d like before I take care of your fur babies! Over the summer I work part time and have plenty of time for walks and/or drop ins. Schedule changes weekly but not by much definitely able to accommodate your needs. During most weekdays I am a teacher so I will be out of the house 7-3:30 (unless there is a vacation or holiday) I shower all my pets with love at every chance I get. I am all about the belly rubs and my animals know it and love it!

“I know Natalia for a few years. She is a great person, who takes great care of pets. She is loving, caring, friendly, and reliable. She took excellent care of my dog.

The best choice! Thank you, Natalia, again!”

She made sure to make my puppy feel loved and safe (which is hard to do because I have a very sensitive little maltese) and kept her fed and happy and entertained. I knew that I left my puppy in great hands. I trust Nicki completely in my home and would recommend her to anyone who asks! She is confident and trustworthy, which are qualities a caregiver needs. She would be a great addition to the village that it takes to have a well cared for pet!”
