“Samantha was terrific! We are very fussy leaving our labrador, Paddington, with anyone. We met with her beforehand, and we instantly knew that everything would be fine. She is extremely reliable, kept in touch with us consistently, and we were very pleased with her stay. We would happily use her again.. We would recommend her to anybody!!”

“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!”

“John did an amazing job taking care of our two labs for eight days! He treated our girls like his own. He was excellent with her multiple medical issues, including, my girls, diabetes, which requires injectable insulin twice a day. He sent us constant updates multiple times a day, which included photos and video! He was so respectful of staying in our home and left it clean and tidy after his visit. I highly recommend him- he gave us the peace of mind to enjoy our family dream vacation!”


“Keoma is fantastic! She arrived right on time and made my pup feel comfortable immediately. She was very communicative and we’ll absolutely book with her again!”

“Cynthia watched my pup overnight and took such good care of him. I felt at ease knowing he was not alone and with someone who genuinely likes dogs (even old cranky ones like mine). Thank you so much Cynthia!!”

“Kloe was very careful and loving with Bigotes, she kept me very informed and sent me photographs and videos, I highly recommend her and will definitely hire her again. Thank You Kloe !”

“Cassidy is amazing. She’s attentive, empathetic, kind and considerate. She sent me plenty of videos and photos of my puppers and always asked questions before doing anything to make sure it was in line with how my boys are usually treated. I appreciate her attention to detail, as well as her kindness to my aging babies. I highly recommend her for all your pet care needs.”

About: My name is Deshaun, a former tv meteorologist, and I love dogs. I am experienced with taking care of dogs through family and friends. Giving animals as much love as possible is my motto. Show them as much love and attention as possible and always be on alert with pets. Never leave peers on their own. Make sure that they are well fed. I’m currently in between jobs, so I have all the time in the world. I will dedicate a lot of time into taking care of my clients I treat my client’s home with top care. I will never bring strangers into their homes, keep everything clean and tidy and avoid rooms that are banned.
“Samantha was so kind, gentle and caring with my Noelle, I could not have asked for a better “babysitter”! I am so grateful to have met her and look forward to working with her again!”

“Jasmine was great. I felt good knowing our pup was with someone knowledgeable and able to help if anything happened (Achilles is a much older pup). I would definitely use Jasmine again!”


About: I have a Bachelor of Science in Animal Science and a specific interest in animal behavior. I love all types and sizes of animals (with a soft spot for large dogs). I want to give your pet the absolute best care that I can while you are gone and create a bond of trust and love! I have my own family dog (Ben/Duke shown in the photo), and have lived with cats for the last four years. I think animals are so special and communicate in such a unique way that we can all learn from. I currently work part time on Tuesday until 2pm and Thursdays after 1pm. Other days I can stop by any time to feed/medicate/walk/play with your buddy! I am happy to come multiple times per day if needed, just let me know and we can work out a schedule! I unfortunately cannot care for a pet in my own home, but however you would like your pet to be cared for, I will follow instructions. I understand that just as we have our routines, our pets have the same routine and I want to ensure they are comfortable in their own home even if you are not there to care for them.

About: What truly sets me apart is my lifelong, hands-on experience as a devoted pet parent — especially with senior dogs and emotionally sensitive pets. I cared for my beloved senior dog Rocki for 14 years, supporting him through every stage of life, including the extra patience, gentleness, and attentiveness senior dogs need. Today, I share my life with my dog River and also help care for my partner’s 16-year-old senior dog, so I am very comfortable with senior care, slower mobility, routine-based needs, and gentle handling. I’m highly attentive to body language, emotional comfort, and stress signals, which helps me support anxious, sensitive, or aging dogs in a calm and reassuring way. My home provides a safe, structured, and loving environment where dogs can feel secure and relaxed. I’m also patient and consistent with younger dogs, helping reinforce routines, calm behavior, and positive habits through gentle guidance and structure. Every dog in my care is treated like family with safety, emotional awareness, patience, and genuine love. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I structure my days around consistent walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and calm rest periods for my own dog, River, as well as my partner’s senior dog. Because caring for animals is already part of my everyday routine, I’m able to provide dependable, attentive, and structured care for pets staying with me. I prioritize supervision, emotional comfort, and routine so every dog feels safe, relaxed, and cared for throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like family in a calm, safe, and loving environment. I follow each dog’s normal routine closely, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of rest and comfort. I pay close attention to body language, emotional needs, and stress signals to ensure every dog feels secure and relaxed. My home includes a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, cozy indoor rest areas, and close supervision throughout the day. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their pet’s established routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I provide gentle, attentive care, ensure safety, and send regular updates with photos so pet parents always feel reassured while they’re away.
“Imani was an excellent dog sitter - staying over witb my pup while I was out of town at my place. I got frequent updates and I came home to a happy pup and clean apartment. Will absolutely book again! Thanks Imani!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Jonnalyn took great care of my pups and was very responsive during the two days we were away. Very polite and punctual. We definitely recommend her as pet sitter , looking forward to having her watch our furry ones again✨✨”

“Amanda was great! She stayed at my house for 2 nights to watch my dogs, Missy & Rebel. Prior to that, she offered to do a meet and greet and came to my house to meet us and go over everything. The dogs loved her as soon as she met her, they have a keen sense for fellow dog lovers. This was my first time leaving my dogs with a stranger but Amanda sent me pictures throughout her stay which allowed me to relax on my vacation. I will def use her again, and highly recommend.”

About: Having 2 dogs of my own, I know how much clients/dogs owners care for their babies. They need to be fed, exercised, trained and taken care of as if they were little kids. That's what I do with my own 2 dogs and that's what I would do with any other dog under my care. My goal is to create a trusting and safe environment for the dog and return him or her to their owner as happy as ever.
About: I have loved dogs from a young age and was always surrounded by them. I live in a safe neighborhood with parks nearby for your pup to play in. My home is fenced in with amble play space! I have a full time job in NYC, which consists of 4 in office days and 1 WFH day. I am able to make as many accommodations as I can. I will make sure your pet is taken well care of by keeping them active and entertained. I will do this by walking them around the park and areas by me. Playing with them at all times and making sure they feel safe.

About: I got my first family dog when I was 8, and caring for him sparked a long-standing love for dogs. Since then, I’ve helped take care of him and other dogs, gaining hands-on experience with their daily needs, training, and routines. I currently work 9-6PM ET, but can be there to take care of your dog any time after that, and any time on the weekends. I provide attentive and personalized care for pets, whether in my home or the client’s. This includes feeding according to their schedule and dietary needs, providing fresh water, giving daily walks and exercise, offering playtime and mental stimulation, and ensuring lots of love and attention. I also follow any specific instructions from the pet owner, monitor for health or behavior changes, and maintain a safe, clean, and comfortable environment at all times.

Kenine was amazing! Our dog is a needy lady, and Kenine exceeded our expectations in caring for her! She sent lots of updates, and even celebrated our dog’s birthday with her while we were away! She stayed in our home and kept it extremely clean and safe. We 100% will book with her again!

This was my first time ever having anyone watch Maddie while I was away, but I couldn’t have chosen a better person to watch Maddie! Samantha was so sweet and kind to Maddie, gave her so much care and that was evident from the beginning. We had a few rules for Maddie and Samantha made left us feeling reassured that all will be okay in her care and made sure we were being updated all the time to see that Maddie was not only safe but having a great time too! Hiring a house sitter for our dog wasn’t an easy decision, but I couldn’t be happier about the way Samantha cared for my pet, and I will definitely be booking with her in the future!

1000/1000! Bryce was a life saver!! She was available last minute to dog sit my 2 dogs at my home for a week! She sent thorough and constant updates that made me feel so at ease. The dogs truly adored her and she clearly loved them. She left the house in immaculate condition and went over and above what I asked of her. She will be my go to girl for all future trips!

Maggie and Ruthie love Keoma and their humans do too. Maggie is our special needs elderly greyhound. Ruthie is our elderly cat. Keoma stays with them when we travel and they seem relaxed when we come home. Plus, Keoma always leaves the flat nice and clean. Highly recommend!

AMAZING! Jacqueline house sit for my parents dog (my dad’s golden child) while they were away and she is the best. She is respectful, kind, and beyond trustworthy to have in your home and around your pets. She stayed with our dog the entire time and played with him pretty much all day. This was my first time using Rover and I’m so happy to have found her on here. We will 100000% call her anytime we need someone.

Zoe did a fantastic job pet sitting at my home while I was traveling. From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease leaving my dog, Emmett, in her care. She was professional, kind, and got along well with my shy dog. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates and photos and it was clear that my dog was being well looked after. I highly recommend Zoe to anyone looking for a responsible and loving dog sitter!
