“This is my first time using Rover. Vicki came for a Meet & Greet . She was lovely and confident. I booked an overnight just to be sure it was a good fit as I’m leaving out of country for 11 days. Vicky was great with my dogs who are older and one is anxious and pretty blind. They also require heart meds and some assistance. I would recommend her, she communicated very well. My house was just as I left it which I appreciate. I’m pleased to find someone I feel comfortable leaving my pups with 🙌”

“Eryn did a wonderful job caring for our 3 fur babies. She was very communicative making she we were up to date with everything going on at our house while we were away. She was patient with our pups when they acted out and made sure to let us know they were misbehaving. Not only that but when we got back from our trip the house was spotless and she even washed the bedding. 10/10 would recommend for your sits.”

“Kristina is absolutely wonderful. We booked her kind of last minute as our previous sitter fell through. She was accommodating and made our anxious dog comfortable while she stayed in our home with him. I highly recommend Kristina & will absolutely book her again in the future if she is available.”


About: I am in the Middletown- goshen area of Orange County and can’t board any animals at our new home. I prefer a meet and greet before booking and have excellent references. I can walk, spend time with , and play with your dogs and/or cats. I’m experienced with administering medications to both. I have references from my customers in Sullivan county where I used to live if needed . Recently retired I now have a very open schedule for your vacations or weekend needs. I have been an Eagle nest monitor for the NYDEC from 2011 - 2019 on the Delaware River and on Yankee Lake NY 2013- 2022 and have been involved in animal rescue . *That means I have both domestic animal and wildlife experience. I have been a local volunteer and continue to involved in my community. I am newly retired and can come anytime that fits into your schedule . Hopefully I can be the person you call for your vacation or special occasions. Sadly, I no longer have a place to board any animals. But I do have some great references and would provide them upon request. I do have a medium size pup of my own I can bring if you have a friendly dog.
“Robbie was nothing short of heaven sent! When we had to make last minute changes for our dogs’s care Robbie took the time to come over, get acclimated with our two large dogs and learn their routine to keep them comfortable as it was their first time with care from a sitter. When our flight was canceled due to a snow storm, she continued to show up for them and even took them out to play in the snow and sent us pics to keep our minds at ease. She was caring, respectful to our home and really went above and beyond in so many ways. You can tell she’s a real animal lover and we are so grateful she cared for our pups!”

“Nicole watched our cats for our wedding and because of it we had nothing to worry about on our special day. Five stars does not cut it when it comes to how incredible Nicole is!”


“Emma has been great with Augie. We’ve had her for walks and housesitting. She keeps him very entertained and very happy and we get lots of fun pictures! She treats him like he’s her own 😊”


About: Our pets are more than just companions. They are family, this makes them so much more precious. Which is why with me I can guarantee that I will do my best to provide the love and care your pet deserves. I have cared for dogs young and old, big and small, calm and energetic, you name it. I have experience feeding, cleaning after them as well as themselves, and giving medications with specific instruction. I am available all night on Monday into the evening on Tuesdays. As well as in the evening on Fridays up until the evening on Sunday. Other days of the week are very negotiable to what you may need! I personally love to encourage as much activity as possible with my dogs to ensure they get healthy amounts of play time. This in turn allows them to get ample rest when they are tired from activity further encouraging a healthy lifestyle for my furry kiddos.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets my entire life, and my family and friends look to me if they need me to dog sit (or pet sit) when they’re away or unavailable. I love animals, and so getting to take care of furry friends is an absolute treat!! I’m currently attending college, so monday and wednesday mornings im out of the house from 8-12. any other time, if given enough notice, i can be available for you and your pets! I live in a family home with my dog daisy, who is very friendly and about 14 years old now. She never fails to be entertained, and I love her with all my heart. I will do the same for your pets :)
“We could not be happier with Jade! She came to our rescue when a kennel reservation fell through and stayed in our home for four nights with our eight month old Samoyed puppy and three year old bengal cat while we traveled out of state to a family wedding. Jade exudes an immense amount of compassion and sensitivity, as well as the utmost professionalism. Her communication is awesome, and her experience/knowledge as a petsitter and caretaker of animals really shows. She took remarkable care of our beloved cat and dog, and just as importantly she cared beautifully for our house while we were away. This was our first time working with a pet sitter, and actually opening our home to someone while we weren’t there, which was totally nerve-wracking! We are so grateful that Jade was the person we connected with.”

“Michael is a wonderful dog sitter! He stayed at our home for 3 nights, and took great care of our 3 pups. We received multiple updates with photos daily. We will absolutely ask Michael to dog sit for us again.”

“My two Jack Russell’s had a great time with Shannon while she did a 5 day house sit with them. Shannon regularly kept us up to date on their wellbeing with pictures and texts. She also was able to help us out for an extra day when our flight was delayed returning home and ensured the dogs were still taken care of while we were delayed getting home. The house looked great when we got back and we had two happy pups. Thanks again Shannon!”

“Thank you, Teadie, for taking such good care of our Imo. Your photos and frequent updates enabled us to really enjoy our vacation. Imo was very content upon our return and, we’re sure, would enjoy your sitting for him again!!! And thank you for taking care of the linen and towels…you didn’t need to do that, but it was very much appreciated!”

“Madelyn took care of my 14-year old Siberian Husky, Kodiak, who has arthritis. She house-sat him while we were away on vacation for 12 days. She was wonderful with him, taking him on frequent short walks during the day. When we got home, we found a very neat house and a very happy (and tired!) dog. I would absolutely hire her again.”

About: Hello, I have owned dogs all my life. Currently i have 4 dogs. 2 French Mastiffs a Yorkie and a young playfully Teddy Bear Alaskan Malamute. I love dogs. I love to hug, kiss, cuddle and give them lots of attention. I was an Office Manager in an Animal Hospital for many years. I learned a lot about veterinary care. I dont feel dogs should be left home alone all day. They need exercise and activity, lots of walks love and fun. I also cared for 13 pups my girl had she refused to take care of them. So I'm very knowledgeable from newborns to senior. I have an instant animal attraction. I hate people who abuse animals!!! Dogs give me therapy which brings me much love ! I will work around my dog services to fit your fur baby into my schedule. I give them all my undivided attention while in my care I have a large yard so we can play or go for walks. In my home all dogs are allowed on the furniture and the bed.

About: From the age of 4 i’ve had two cats. Now I have two dogs as well. Both rescues one a mutt, and another a pit mix. Outside of my own pets I have taken care of friends, family, and neighbors pets. Whether it be walking, drop-in visits or staying overnight I love taking care of all animals. If needed, I can help medicate too. I have a flexible schedule and my own car. I’m here to be a last minute carer, or a reliable and stable carer for your pets. I am available for walking, drop-in visits, and overnight stays. With my own car I am willing and able to drive far distances. I will care for your pets by communicating clearly with you on any and all their needs. I will treat your home and your animals with care. I will love your pets like my own!
About: From overnight stays and walks to playtime and cuddles, family and friends have entrusted me with the care of their fur baby. Being able to work with cats and dogs on a daily basis as a veterinary assistant continues to help me accumulate various skills to work with animals of all temperaments and ages! I’m currently working part time so I’d have flexible time to spend with your precious pups whether during the week or during the weekend ! Pups are off if their routine is off so if you have a specific schedule or way of doing things I can assure you I will stick to the game plan.
Howell pet parents share their Rover experiences
Eryn is fantastic, full stop. Regular and thorough updates on our cat, Penny, who can be challenging(!) with medication, and whom Eryn handled like a champ. We were gone for 10 days, which is a long time for us, so it was a huge weight off having Eryn take care of our lil' fuzzball and our home. Will absolutely hire again, and highly recommend!
