“Bella was the perfect sitter for my baby while I was away. I was never worried about her in the slightest and it was such an amazing piece of mind to know that Bella had her in good hands. I can’t recommend her enough!”


“Carolina was so caring for our little Yoshi! She followed our instructions and also sent such detailed updates. We can't wait for her to take care of our little pup again!”


“Lorenzo did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Lacey! He came over for a few hours, took her on a nice walk, played with her, and made sure she was comfortable and happy the entire time. It was clear that Lacey felt at ease with him, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I’d absolutely recommend Lorenzo to anyone looking for a responsible and caring dog sitter!”


“Elena was a great pet sitter, I absolutely loved her! She took care of everything my cat needed and that we agreed. She took the time to get to know him and the attention was all focused on him. It was the best sitter I had so far. Definitely booking again! Thanks Elena, it is so great to have peace of mind even leaving the little one.”


“Ellie is absolutely amazing with my senior cat. She knows what the cat likes and goes out of her way to make sure the cat is well taken care of while we are away. Highly recommend!”


“Catherine is awesome! She worked with us on a few particular requests, and she is so friendly and warm. Arthur immediately fell in love with Catherine--which says it all!”


“First time booking with Caleigh, great communication and experience all around. One of our cats is almost by rule very slow to warm up to new people, has spent days under the bed when we have some houseguests, so we were surprised to see Noel out and about getting treats on Caleigh's first visit. Highly recommend!”


“Tima has been amazing with our dog, Chewie! She is reliable, thoughtful and caring! Chewie loves her and is so excited when she comes to play with him. I would highly recommend her!”


About: My partner and I live in Astoria with our dog Inky! We fostered a dog for 2 months and miss having a 2nd dog around! Currently we don't have time for a full time 2nd dog but would love to go on walks/ board other dogs with our 4 year old Inky. Both Steven and I have fostered dogs individually and together and we understand the priceless feeling of a worry-free boarding experience for dog parents! We feel that caring for other people's pet children is a true honor! I'm working part time and my partner Steven WFH some days. We go to the park most weekend mornings and like to spend the entire day with the dog(s). Whether it is at home snuggling on the couch, or at a dog-friendly coffee shop. We make sure to not leave small items (ex. airpods) laying around, garbage is thrown away, and the apartment is very much baby/dog-proofed in general.


About: What truly sets me apart is the love and attention I give to every pet I care for. Whether it’s the playful energy of a puppy or the gentle needs of a senior pet, I offer personalized care that feels just like home. I’m experienced in training puppies, administering medications, and providing comfort to elder dogs. Your pet’s happiness, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities, and I treat every furry friend with the same care and affection I’d give my own Pet care is part of my everyday routine (always has been). I make sure pets get their meals, exercise, and plenty of attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or snuggles, I focus on what makes each pet feel comfortable and happy. I stick to their routine and adjust for any special needs, so they feel right at home while you're away. If I’m looking after pets in your home, I make sure to stick to their usual routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and any other special care they need. I take extra care to maintain their familiar environment and ensure they’re safe and happy while you’re away.

About: Hello fellow dog people! I have over 5 years worth of experience caring for and training dogs. Even though this app mainly focuses on the walking and sitting aspect, I take the liberty of also focusing in on teaching/reinforcing basic commands every dog should know, as well as behaviors that are welcomed, and teaching what behaviors are not welcomed. Positive reinforcement is the name of the game when it comes to dogs and what sets me apart from other sitters you ask? Well, the triple C’s, that’s what. Gotta be Calm, Cool, and Collected ;) I’m currently working full time and no longer am an active Rover Walker/Sitter. I’m only available Tuesday-Thursday before 2PM and the occasional Saturday or Sunday mornings. I keep awareness of the pet’s food/water intake, whereabouts, any health concerns and their mood as well. I respect whoever’s space I am in as well as the pet’s space. I try my best to live by the golden rule said by Jesus The Christ: “So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you”.

About: Having had two cherished pets throughout my childhood, I've always had a strong bond with animals. Plus, my boyfriend has five pets that I adore. From feeding and playtime to walks and snuggles, I have years of experience caring for all kinds of animals. Your pets will feel loved and well cared for with me! I am available all throughout the week! I am currently still looking for a part-time summer job, so I have plenty of time to care and love your pets at what ever time of day you need. I have taken care of dogs in all different environments, whether that be a fenced yard, crate training, electronic fence, etc. Whatever environment your pet is in I am willing to adapt to!

About: I have been taking care of all breeds of dogs since I was 11. Family, neighbors, and friends have all relied on me to feed, walk, and house sit their animals. I have trained a few dogs as well and am always up for a challenge. I would love to help and provide great care for your dog/dogs when you are unavailable with your busy life schedules! I am currenlty an active college student, however I have free time for walks most days of the week before 4pm and after 7pm and boarding during the week as well. A lot of walking area around the outside of my apartment space, I also have room for a crate if need be. Lots of room indoors as well for your fur babies to move around.


About: Experience with large and small dogs, from rambunctious puppy wrangling to being tackled by big pups. I love them all, and am very good at understanding dog signals. I have no trouble walking strong dogs that like to pull, and I do not get frustrated by dogs. They have feelings, just like us, and I treat them as equals. I have experience with old dogs with physical needs and ailments, and tending to those needs. I had a small dog that was blind and nearly deaf, and I would steer him from danger and help him feel safe and comfortable. I also now have a big dog who was very naughty as a puppy, but I was able to train him patiently and well and now he's a big sweetheart.

It's easy to tell that her love of dogs is real because I have yet to hear a single complaint about the dogs she's fostered and taken care of.

If you're looking for someone to love and care for your dog as much as you do, I can't imagine a better person to choose than Erisa.”
