“Ellie had a great time with Yeisha. They played and cuddled, which is a big deal for my pup, who often takes time to warm up to new people. Looking forward to using Yeisha again soon.”
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.
“Anna was great! She sent updates throughout the day, and my dog was happy when I got back home. The apartment was also clean when I came back home - Thanks again, Anna!”
“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.”
“Wonderful care for Jax! Consistent and thoughtful updates, very cautious and tuned into care instructions, and responsive always. Will absolutely book again!”
“Razan has watched Poe twice now and has been wonderful both times! She is very friendly, patient, and sweet with him as he warms up to her. She sends great photo updates during the stay which I really appreciate! She is also comfortable giving Poe his medication, feeding him, and taking him on walks. Very reliable and flexible. I will definitely book Razan again!”
“I hired Denise to stay at my apartment with my cat, Ruthie, and she was great! Denise came to meet me and Ruthie before the stay, she sent me many photos and updates, and she gave Ruthie her inhaler twice a day! Definitely hire Denise to take care of your fur babies!”
“Emily was fantastic. She was prompt and reliable, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. She kept me updated with great photos throughout, and it was clear Nova was happy and well cared for. Most importantly, she followed all instructions closely and made the whole experience seamless.”
“amanda was such a godsend with my cognitively impaired senior pup. she was super communicative and demonstrated so much compassion and understanding toward junie. my pup has had a difficult time with dementia and incontinence, and amanda proved to be such a loving companion to her while i was away for the weekend.”
“Jasper and I had a great experience with Jeanette and I will definitely rebook! She was kind, knowledgeable and communicative throughout the process. She even offered to stay a bit longer when my flight was delayed. Thank you for going above and beyond!”
“I had Horace house sit, and he is great with my dog and cat. My dog requires a lot of medications and special diet and Horace was able to administer all without issue! Everyone was happy, and apartment was well-cared for. 5/5 will hire again.”
“Alexandria was excellent caretaker for Ozzy and left the home very clean! I was traveling for a week and she had great questions and knew how to be prepared. I found Ozzy very calm, content, and well kept. Thankful for all her service and communication. Would highly recommend!”
“Alice and Ethan literally went above and beyond taking care of our baby Mango! They were so communicative, patient with him, and kept us in the loop at all times! Can’t wait to have them watch Mango again, best babysitting experience we have ever had.”
“I could not be happier with Sara! This was my first time having a non-family member watch my dog while I was out of town and I was so nervous about it. I looked at a lot of options before deciding on Sara and am so glad I did - Sara stayed at my place and with Sasha for two weeks. She took such wonderful careful of Sasha and sent me multiple pictures and updates every day. Sasha clearly loved her and Sara treated her like her own, making me feel so at ease and letting me enjoy my vacation without worrying about her. On top of that, she left my apartment just as clean as I left it. I will definitely be using Sara in the future and am so relieved to have found someone I can trust! Could not recommend Sara more.”
“We were so thankful to see that Rachel was available this time to stay with our pups while we were away. We haven’t been able to book her the last two times due to schedule conflicts. Our girls were very happy to see her again and they are shy around strangers so she must have made a great impression in previous stays. We plan to book in plenty of time for our next trip to make sure their favorite sitter is available. And the house was in great condition too!”
“Hi there, loved how Deisi took care of my doggie. It was his first time so he was a bit restless, couldn't seem to settle but she did not give up. She was patient, gentle and so caring. When it came to his needs and comfort, she was extremely attentive! Gave full dedication, watched carefully, keeping me inform of his status and ask questions if necessary. I would definitely use her services again. Cheers to Deisi...we so much thank you!”
“Iris is AMAZING! such a great communicator and got back to me on such quick short notice on taking care of Miko the day before and took care of her like she was her own I absolutely recommend her ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Briana is always reliable, communicative, and takes more than amazing care of Oliver. Every time I come back, he is calm and happy which is tough as he runs anxious and gets stressed easily. Always grateful for Briana and her thoughtfulness when it comes to petsitting!”
Hamilton Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Grace was so nice and friendly and very helpful to my wife's and I needs for a sitter at our weekend evening. Much appreciated the flexibility when our train was delayed and came home later than anticipated. She took care of our pup and provided frequent updates. She was super responsive and respectful. Would recommend!
Allen was very patient with Major (as was Bean, Allen’s Goldendoodle). He achieved what I thought was impossible: he tired my boy out! They spent a lot of time outside (taking him for walks and bike rides) and quality cuddle times. When my flight was delayed, Allen was very flexible about staying late until I arrived. For my first time leaving Major, he was in great hands with Allen. I got the pics and vids to prove it!
This was our second time booking Alice and Ethan to watch Mango, and we honestly couldn't ask for better sitters! We were away in Ireland for our wedding, and having them look after Mango gave us total peace of mind. Alice and Ethan were incredibly proactive and efficient at figuring out Mango’s needs whenever anything came up. They sent constant updates and were so patient with his initially shy personality. They were also super prompt with his feeding schedule and medical needs, including his inhaler. Mango was so incredibly happy the entire time. We are so glad to have found them and cannot recommend them highly enough!
Anxhela is incredible. My dog is usually very anxious, but he warmed up to her almost instantly — something that never happens. She kept me updated the entire time and was so communicative and responsive. It’s clear she genuinely loves dogs and has a special ability to connect with them, which gave me so much comfort while I was away. I came home to a spotless apartment, thoughtful touches, and even a sweet card. She truly went above and beyond and I can't recommend her enough.
Violetta took great care of Scooby. Communication was excellent throughout, and I really appreciated the many photos and updates she sent, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about making sure Scooby was comfortable. I would be happy to book with her again.
Really happy with Jassica's care of Moose. She was timely and communicative. Moose was clearly happy when I got home and she took excellent care of him and my apartment. It did not go unnoticed that my apartment was just as clean and tidy as I left it! Will surely look to re-book with Jaz when possible!
kayla was a lifesaver when our dog sitter canceled just days before vacation! she stepped in and took such great care of my senior dog, flynnie. she sent us lots of photos and updates, had great communication throughout, and was super reliable and responsible. it was such a relief knowing he was in good hands while we were away - flynn was happy, comfortable, and well cared for when we got home. we'll definitely be rebooking with kayla and highly recommend her!
I had a great experience with Prachi! She was available extremely last minute which was so helpful!! She took excellent care of my dog Nova and kept me updated with regular messages and photos which gave me a lot of peace of mind. My dog loved her will definitely look to book again with Prachi she was reliable and caring!
Desiree was excellent with our new puppy - so warm and caring. From the very moment of our Meet and Greet, it was clear that she is a dedicated professional. Regular updates on a daily basis, pictures and texts throughout the day. Thank you, Desiree for your terrific care and wonderful personality. Our very highest recommendation.
