“Christopher was genuinely excellent with Krunk. He warmed up to him right away. They got along incredible. Christopher is very thorough. He sees all of Krunk's needs because he does have medical conditions and needs specific medications and things. He was very attentive to him and very caring!! He is so professional and picked up on Krunks mannerisms right away. My mind was put to ease and that’s the most important thing. I would recommend him to anybody. He truly is a blessing.🐶🐾🐶🐾”
“Adam is a fantastic sitter and walker - would highly recommend! Extremely communicative and responsive, and was very patient with my active dog. Adam took the time to understand my dog’s unique needs and did everything he could to make sure my dog was as happy and comfortable as possible.”

“Alissa is a great cat sitter, flexible with multiple drop ins, extended visits etc. and very communicative throughout - Alissa looked after my cat for 10 days, and so this was much appreciated! Lots of updates and pictures/videos and my cat seemed to really enjoy all the pampering and play time and love he was getting. She followed all the (many) instructions I left. Very glad to have found Alissa through Rover and will definitely book again.”

“Lenin is very professional, followed instructions to a tee, and let us enjoy our vacation in peace knowing our animals were being loved and cared for. Would definitely recommend and will be using again.”
“Schirn was wonderful and our dog immediately seemed to feel comfortable with her. She was very communicative and willing to help problem solve when an obstacle arose. Felt very comfortable with Schirn and would love to have her watch our dog again!”

“Bryan is a great cat sitter- he clearly loves animals a lot and is both respectful and responsive! He sent plenty of pictures of Moose, who definitely enjoyed his company.”
“Dicky was great, was available last minute to watch the dogs and even was available to meet the day before to get acquainted! Very grateful to have found this sitter so close and responsible and easy to work with!”

“Ryan house sat my cat for 4 days. He came by a few days before to meet and I immediately felt comfortable. On returning, not only is my kitty healthy and happy but Ryan was very conscientious with my apartment, it is as I left it! THANKS RYAN. See you next time.”

“Loved having Miguel over to dog-sit Missy. Very clear and prompt communication, punctual, frequent updates during the day, and a genuine interest in understanding Missy's routine and keeping her on it as if we were home ourselves. Open and friendly, it was easy to trust him at our home. Missy is not yet accustomed to being alone, and Miguel was very understanding when we explained. He even came prepared with food for the day so that he wouldn't have to leave her to step out! Would definitely book with Miguel again!”

About: I’ve loved dogs ever since I was little and have always wanted a dog of my own. Luckily, I was able to grow up with my cousins’ dogs throughout my childhood! I have a lot of experience dog sitting for my friends and family. I enjoy taking long walks through the park by my home and will make sure your dog enjoys them as much as I do! I am an observant, attentive, and punctual person so your dog will be in very good hands! I will make sure to feed and walk your dog in a timely manner all while making sure they’re enjoying their time with me! Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priority and they will be treated like family! I am a new grad nurse born and raised in NYC. I’m currently at home for most of the week, making it possible to dog-sit, house-sit, host doggy day cares, and complete drop in visits. My schedule is pretty flexible, but I appreciate clear, advanced notices if any changes were to occur. I live on the second floor of a walk up in a dog friendly neighborhood. I also live right by multiple small parks so there are many places nearby to take your dog out for walks and get all their energy out!
“Kenine was amazing! Very attentive to our Sky. Lots of walks and video updates for us. We felt very comfortable and knew that Sky was safe and getting plenty of love and attention while we were away. We will be booking again and highly recommend!”

“Christopher was communicative, caring, and receptive. He provided a great help to me over the weekend and he will be the first one I reach out to again for assistance.”

“Maria rocks! She was super attentive and loving towards our dog Snoopy - and set us at ease with her thoughtful updates and photos each day. She also took great care of our apartment:) She's everything you'd want from a dog sitter - genuinely affectionate, responsible, and responsive. We highly recommend her!”

“We initially planned to board our dog Frankel during our vacation. Unfortunately 5 days before the trip he broke his toe and ended up in a foot cast, leaving us unable to put him in a boarding facility. We scrambled a bit with only a few days to find an alternative, and then we came across Lilly's profile. She took absolutely fantastic care of Frankel while we were away and put our minds at ease with daily pictures and videos of Frankel having a great time. Lilly made sure to give him his medication and take the extra steps needed to keep his cast safe and dry, she was extremely communicative, and even offered to water our plants and bring the mail in. Frankel had the best time with Lilly. We really can't say enough great things about the experience and will definitely be using Lilly again for future trips!”

About: I have worked and taken care of Animals my whole life. A dog changed how I see life. You realize all you need is some attention and reasoning an life can move on smoothly! I have two current dogs I care for dearly, I take care of them as they were human too. So I would expect me to do the same as well to your dogs. No matter what size or breed. To me and many dog owners know that no one can be as loyal as your dog. We see dogs more then just a pet to someone else. We see some them as humans best friend! Your dogs will love to meet a new friend! They will definitely love to meet me!
“Jess was wonderful with my dog while I was out of town. It was great knowing she was in good hands! I was very appreciative of Jess’ communication and updates - highly recommend!”

“Cathy took such amazing care of Wiggles, my 8 month old puppy and my space! Not only was she diligent in watching Wiggy for his housebreaking needs, Wiggy LOVED spending time with Cathy. She tired him out for the day and a tired pup is a happy pup!”

“Austin was amazing! Quick response, very communicative and even came to do a meet & greet with our dog a few days before he dog/house sat. We got pics and videos while we were gone and felt like our pup was well taken care of. He left the house clean when he left. Would definitely use again!!”

“we loved Grace so much!!!! she took such great care of Eloise and sent lots of pics of our happy girl. Felt confident El was well taken care of and understood.”

“Alice and Ethan did an amazing job watching our Penny at our apartment. They sent lots of pictures and took her on many walks and even brushed her! Penny clearly was very comfortable and well taken care of. They also took great care of our apartment. We could enjoy our vacation knowing Penny was in great hands!”

Emily was amazing with our dog Ginger over the weekend. Ginger can be reactive, but Emily was incredibly patient, understanding, and attentive throughout the entire stay. She made us feel at ease knowing Ginger was in good hands. We truly appreciate her care and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter!

Aaron is truly wonderful. My dogs absolutely love him. He is loving and patient and gives them lots of walks & cuddles. After a house sit with Aaron, my big dog constantly rolls onto her back for tummy rubs & I'm sure it's because she's now accustomed to LOTS of tummy rubs from him! He is also very respectful of my house. I am happy to leave my dogs and apartment in Aaron's capable hands anytime!

I dropped off Niko and Rumi at his place and honestly had a great experience. He took really good care of them and kept me in the loop the whole time, like sending updates when they were fed and just how they were doing in general. Niko is usually very anxious and hides around new people, but he actually got comfortable with him, which says a lot. Both Niko and Rumi seemed super settled, almost like it was their second home. At one point Niko puked a hairball (which is normal for him), but he handled it well and kept me updated every few hours, and even followed up the next day and after meals. I really appreciated that. Overall, I wouldn’t think twice about booking again.

Miguel did an excellent job caring for my senior dog and home. He was highly communicative, kept me updated throughout, and was incredibly kind and caring during our initial meet-up and beyond. I’ve already rebooked him for a longer pet-sitting stay and look forward to continuing to have him as my dog’s primary sitter.

David watched our two dogs in our home while we were out of town. He maintained consistent communication, including updates, questions, and pictures. He was responsive and flexible to make sure our dogs’ needs were met, and was transparent about his schedule. He problem solved well with the best dog care at the center. We felt totally comfortable with him in our home. We could tell he really cared about the dogs and gave them lots of special attention. We will definitely use him again! Highly recommend!

Everything went really well with Roxane. She took great care of my dog, Ollie, who can be very hyper when meeting new people at first. She was kind, patient, and handled him very well. I really appreciated how smooth everything went and would absolutely trust her with him again.
