About: I’ve had the joy of being around dogs for as long as I can remember, growing up with both small and large breeds since I was a little girl. Caring for them is a lifelong passion for me. I love not only spending time with dogs but also training them, learning about their unique personalities, and making sure they feel happy, healthy, and understood. My goal as a sitter is to give each dog the same level of love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is thriving while you’re away. As a freelance artist, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to tailor my day around the needs of the pets I care for. My work in the arts gives me the freedom to be present for regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. Because I can easily adjust my routine, I’m able to give each pet consistent attention and love. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my own home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I make sure pets are in a secure environment that they are free from hazards, with access to fresh water, comfortable resting areas, and plenty of safe play space. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, from feeding routines to exercise schedules, and keep a watchful eye on the pet’s behavior and well-being. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and ensure it’s kept tidy and secure. My goal is to provide both the pet and their owner with peace of mind, knowing they’re in a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment.
About: The dog animal kingdom loves my gentle spirit. From the moment I have adopted and rescue from the Animal Care Center in the East Side of Manhattan and for 3 years taken well enough attentive care of Uni have results of having positive encounters with any meet puppies of dogs. My close circle friends and other pet owners recognize that the dogs smell my dog scent within my clothes and skin. I truthfully believe so because they so friendly wants to interact with me. I am mostly available to dog walk services throughout the weekdays and even so possibly on the weekends from late afternoon to evening hour timings I like to make sure my space is cozy, fairly clear enough, and safe for the dogs to stay and be able to move around while I baby sit them. I make sure the pets has or brought its adequate meals food and enough clean water, it’s playing toys or garments that keeps them comfortably cozy and at ease, it’s managed medications if necessary needed to be consume, make it has its playtime or nap time hours moment if is needed. Lastly, I love positively having conversations times to time with the dog and its owner to have a good rapport report status.
“Great pet sitter. My cat was always very happy to see him. He was great with communication and willing to go above and beyond to make sure he was well taken care of. Will definitely use again when needed.”
“Lili took care of our cat, Mishmish, while we were on vacation. She followed instructions to the T, and our elderly cat, who is usually pretty lethargic and not overly friendly, warmed up to her. We came back to clean litter box, swept floors, and our cat having fresh water and food. We will absolutely work with Lili again when we travel for extended period of time, and highly recommend her to any pet owner.”
“Patty is super friendly and was able to make it work in short notice. Our baby boy loved the company. He's a 4 month old puppy learning and she was patient with him, he had a great time!”
About: I worked 1 year in pet boarding. And bath groomer. I cared every single breed and also cared a lot cats. It’s amazing !!!I loved it I’m available to play all afternoon. I really love spent my time with them. In the morning I have a job but I’ve arrived always early to my home. I always take care to them. Hours to eat, hours to play, to go to walk, most importantly make feel the dog comfortable and also the costumer. I am currently not working but have a few errand along the day. In the morning as soon as I wake up I would take care of the cleaning pet area, feeding and walking if needed. I would repeat the process in the afternoon. I make sure to keep everything as clean as possible, separate the pets as directed by the owners, also feed and walk (of dog) twice a day or as directed for the owner
“Wendy was great with Nash! She followed all my instructions, communicated during the visit, and even sent me a photo! Her visit was very helpful and took the worry out of being gone for the day. I will definitely book Wendy again!”
“Emily was amazing with our cats! She sent so many updates and pictures. She made sure to befriend both of them even though one is very shy and she made them so comfortable. We will definitely make sure to book her again because the girls loved their time with her!”
“⸻ Let me just say—after my first two dog sitters, I almost gave up on this app 🙂. But I’m so glad I found Victor. He is incredibly kind and truly cares. My dog absolutely loves him—he wags his tail and gets just as excited to see Victor as he does to see me, which says everything. Victor is also very reliable. He doesn’t just stick to the exact booked time or show up late like others. He often arrives a few minutes early and sometimes stays a little longer, which I really appreciate. It shows how genuine and dedicated he is. I also have a camera at home, since my dog can’t tell me about his day—and it’s clear that Victor treats him with care and attention. That gives me a lot of peace of mind. He will definitely be my to-go dog sitter moving forward!”
“Shelly has been checking on my doggie, few times per week on regular basis, for the past few weeks. She is very kind, caring, reliable and on time... My puppy has had some GI issues couple of times during this time and Shelly has been very caring for her. My little pooch luvs Shelly so much! she looks at the door, excited, looking for Shelly when ever I mention Shelly’s name! I’ve been feeling really at ease and peaceful, when I know she is coming to check on my doggie. Thank you very much Shelly :)”

Vanessa has cared for my kitty, Boo, many times. This time, she came out to care for him in terrible weather: 100-degree heat and downpours. Always on time, reliable, and communicative, Vanessa takes detailed notes and lots of pictures, which keep me informed of how Boo is doing. I have complete peace of mind that my kitty is well cared for while I am away. I highly recommend Vanessa to care for your prt.
Ariel is incredibly reliable. She loves cats and they clearly love her. I was worried my old lady wouldn't accept medication from a stranger, but Ariel charmed her instantly. We got timely notifications of every drop by, with beautiful writeups that made us confident we left our girl in good hands.
Leta has been a god send for us! She has taken care of our cat for about 6 months now and I don’t know what we would do without her. Incredibly responsive and flexible, always takes great care of our cat, and is communicative throughout her stay. Takes great pics and detailed report cards too! On several occasions I’ve changed plans on a dime and Leta has always been very understanding and accommodative. Thanks Leta!
First time Lindsay babysat my two fur babies. She was a great communicator in all ways - and Mingus and Jacques agreed based on all the photos sitting on her lap and generally looking very chill and happy. Apartment was spotless upon returning home. Lindsay is a mature and trustworthy catsitter and I highly recommend her!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Inwood stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
