About: I grew up around dogs, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve helped take care of my friends’ dogs, including Pip, whom I’ve watched since he was a puppy, and Martha, a more senior dog. I’ve handled walking, feeding, playtime, and just generally making sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. I’m very responsible and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I take that responsibility seriously and treat every dog as if they were my own. It means a lot to me to be given the opportunity to care for your furry friend. : ) I actually just graduated from university, but I can be flexible with my schedule depending on what you and your doggie needs. If there’s a particular time that you’re looking for, feel free to let me know and we can work something out! I live in a single on campus, with a decently sized room for any small or medium sized doggies, and there is a fenced in track behind my building/apartment if they wanna just run around with me for a while.
About: I really love being around animals as they bring a lot of joy. Over the years I have pet sat for various family friends, co-workers, colleagues, and friends of friends pets. While pet sitting not only have I been responsible to feed the pets, give them water, let them out to relieve themselves, clean up after the pets, and take them out for a walk but I also have looked after the house. Additionally, I have been working for a company so couples beloved dogs can attend their weddings. Previously, I have volunteered by fostering dogs and dog walking. I am available most weekends and off most holidays. I do work full time so if it is anything during the week I do not get home until after 5 pm. Anything during the week I need to know ahead of time so I can plan accordingly. I would care for your pets as one of my own. I am flexible and come to your pets home so they are comfortable in their own environment.
“So grateful we found Stefanie! Super sweet, communicative, and thoughtful. Our very shy cats came out for her which is rare for them with people they don’t know. Will definitely book again :)”
“Breanna S. is a reliable and professional dog walker. She is always punctual and ensures my dog gets a safe and enjoyable walk each time. Breanna communicates well and provides updates after every walk, which I really Breanna is a great choice for anyone looking for dependable pet care. I highly recommend her services.”
About: I know how stressful it can be leaving your pet behind, so my goal is to make the experience as smooth and comfortable as possible—for both you and your pet. I’m calm, attentive, and great at sticking to routines. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I provide a safe, loving environment they can relax in. I currently am a student from home so I have more than enough time to take care of your furry companion while you are away. I used to walk my dog around my neighborhood sometimes to the river If it’s really nice out just get her some fresh air. Proper feeding times and bathroom breaks.
About: I am affectionate and I love observing the character of each furry one. I have had very good experiences with the noble hearts of the furry ones. After breakfast I like to write in my diary, fill myself with good vibes with the sun and go out for a walk and meditate, when I come back I take a bath and get ready to go to work, I have a yard and fanced, I don't have furry ones at home but I love taking pictures. I have patiencee ee ee ee e
About: I grew up around animals, from birds and hermit crabs to cats and dogs, my household has always been filled with pets. I have also fostered medically fragile dogs and volunteered at the Westchester Humane Society. I am passionate about ensuring all animals receive the best possible care and I will give your pet the same love I give my own. I currently work part time and I’m a full time grad student, but I have my own transportation so my schedule is open and flexible. I will schedule a meet and greet with you and your pet to learn all about their unique quirks, likes, dislikes, and routines prior to beginning services with them. I ensure a safe environment by using non-retractable leashes on walks and will send you updates while I am with your pet. Your pet's safety is my top priority.
“Kayla was able to make 2/walks in 1 day work with such short notice for our 2 dogs. She was very easy to communicate with and took good care of our girls, especially the older one. Would highly recommend and use Kayla again!”
About: I am currently a vet-tech student. I am fear-free certified. I know the scramble for pet care and how scary it can be to trust someone new with your pets. I hope to ease those fears and you can know your pet is getting the care they need. I am currently a student so my schedule varies, and I am looking for a part time job to fill in some gaps. This would also provide me the flexibility ot take on pet-care when my schedule allows so that the care level is never compromised. I will adhere to any rules or weird quirks your pet may have developed. For example growing up our dog would only eat if you made him think it was cooked the same way human food was cooked. We had to do a whole thing on the stove to seem like we were stirring it to fully cooked. I will always be mindful of any openings in yards and be sure they're closed off or that the pet is leashed properly before any door is opened.
“Mario is awesome! He was very thoughtful and patient with our pets and did a great job of communicating with us while we were away. He really put us at ease. Would highly recommend 👍”
About: - responsible - organized - can match your pets energy - love to spend time with animals (walk, play, cuddle) - huge pet photo enthusiast I am a college student who is home on breaks.

About: I have 2 pet cats that are my everything, and been pet sitting my first cat since I was 12! For about 7 years, I've pet sat for multiple people including friends and family. The animals include cats, dogs, and birds. I have done drop-in visits as well as overnight shifts and dog walking. I would love to pet sit for your fur babies and give them lots of love and care. My pets are my world, so I would treat your pets the same!!! I am taking graduate classes at Marist University Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday starting at 5pm. I work from 8:30-1 pm Monday-Thursday and I am available to pet sit the weekends, as well as the week days in between work and class:) I will give your fur baby unlimited attention as well as efficient care. I can take them out on walks, feed them as needed, clean during potty breaks, brush them as needed, and give them lots and lots of love!!!
“Lori is great with my animals. She's my favorite of all the animal sitters. She's always punctual with time and truly trustworthy with my animals and my personal belongings i leave in the house. My cat is 5 months old and my pitbull is 6 years old. I've noticed a couple things about her with my animals. My cat is afraid of any new person that comes to the house and yet my cat is always laying on her and my dog while always excited to see new people she wines out of excitement when she sees lori. To me it's quite obvious my animals love her and I couldn't choose a better kitty/ puppy sitter. To add to that she taught my dog some tricks on her free time things that I gave up on but she had the patience for my hyper pitbull. She really is very loving, responsible and knowledgeabe with animals.”
About: Volunteer with Guiding Eyes for socialization of 2month old puppies in my home in the past. Have 30 yrs + experience with my own rescue dogs. Now down to 1 senior dog who cannot walk long distances. Looking for new walking buddies! Retired and looking for new opportunities mostly during the week. Have volunteer work also, so prefer morning walks at this time; can come to you or you can drop off. I believe dogs thrive on exercise and daily walks; also great time to continue training and encourage obedience. Most dogs love to work out and be with their humans outside.
Highland dog parents share their Rover experiences
Amruta is amazing! From the meet and greet I knew she would be a good fit for us. Tux was drawn to her immediately and is always so excited when she walks through the door. I have a very specific feeding routine for tux and amruta is diligent about following it. I am so happy to have found Amruta because I am now at ease when I go to work, knowing she dropping in to care for Tux. I cannot recommend her enough!
Angellina did a great job caring for our pets. We felt comfortable knowing she was there and will definitely be using her in the future. She had great communication with us throughout her drop ins and was respectful of our home. We are very grateful for her!
This was my very first time leaving my dogs with a sitter, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I have two mixed-breed pups (Dogo Argentino and Pitbull), and they can be a handful—but from the moment we met Rubina we knew we made the right choice. She was calm, confident, and genuinely loving. She was punctual every day, attentive to their needs, and went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable, happy, and cared for. I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Both of my dogs absolutely adored her—and that says a lot! It’s not easy to trust someone new with your pets, especially for the first time, but she exceeded every expectation. I came home to two relaxed, happy dogs and a spotless home. I can’t thank her enough for treating my pups like her own. If you’re looking for someone responsible, kind, and truly passionate about animals, I highly recommend her. She’s officially our go-to sitter from now on!
I was invited on a trip over Labor Day weekend at the last minute, and I was fortunate enough to find Kevin to do drop in visits with my dog and cat. He followed all of my instructions to a T and provided EXCELLENT customer service. I honestly couldn’t have picked anyone better! He was great with my dog, who is 14 years old and has a few medical issues. I was able to enjoy my trip without being worried, and I came home to my house exactly the way that I left it. I will definitely use him again in the future.
