“Yazmine was the absolute best!! She took care of my puppy, who is cute but also a puppy. She kept me abreast of what was happening, helped come up with a strategy to help him sleep in his crate, and played with him endlessly. I could not have asked for a better partner. Thank you!”
“Chenelle was so responsive during her stay. She was available and always answered our texts. Our animals were happy, we received lots of videos, and the house looked great when we got home!”
“Carson was very patient with me as I sorted out my schedule. She came highly recommended from the references she provided. She cared for my elderly dog, Penny, including administering a complicated regimen of medication. I would hire her again!”
“Kamryn did an amazing job with our dog. She sent several pictures and videos while she was with him, and took excellent care of him. She even video chatted with us before the visit to get to know our dog. Highly recommend Kamryn!”
“Elizabeth was a pleasure to work with. She arrived on time and checked in with us frequently during our weekend away. We felt confident that our dogs were in great hands and that she treated them like her own, even our little dog who can be tough to deal with at times. We would definitely use Elizabeth again!!”
“Sierra stayed at my apartment in the BX to watch my 45lb rescue pittie for three weeks in May, and I highly recommend her! She was responsive and so generous coming all the way from NJ to meet my pup and me first and incredibly responsive before the day of. Every day she sent me text and/photo updates, and it was super clear my pup was very well cared for and loved. Coming back, pup was happy and healthy and the apartment was clean as I left it (thanks, Sierra!).”
About: I owned two dogs up until the age of 16 and loved them dearly. I often took my dogs out for long walks and played with them to make sure they were always active & engaged. Since then, I’ve dog/cat sat for numerous friends and neighbors throughout and post college. I always treat others’ animals with the same love and care as I did with my own! I currently work from home, so I have the flexibility to walk or play with your dog before 9am or in the afternoon and evenings if needed! Unfortunately I am unable to host at this time due to my resistance not allowing dogs, but I am available to dog sit in your home! I will ensure the comfort and safety of your dog at all times in a clean environment and can provide any specific additional/necessary support needed!
“I can’t recommend Erick enough! He watched my dog Shadow over a long weekend and was truly incredible from start to finish. Shadow can be a bit reactive with other dogs and kids, and Erick took the time to meet him beforehand to ensure a good fit. They hit it off right away (the treats definitely helped!). Throughout the stay, Erick was super communicative and responsive, giving me peace of mind while I was away. He went above and beyond- taking Shadow on long walks through our local park, keeping up with his medication, sticking to his feeding and potty schedule, and giving him plenty of playtime and attention. He even used some paw balm on Shadows paws after long walks to keep them nourished and left some for me to use as well. I also came home to a tidy space, which was such a thoughtful touch. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and all-around amazing sitter, Erick is your guy. Shadow is already looking forward to his next stay!”
About: I love animals - I have taken care of kittens, old dogs, and everything in between. Having grown up with dogs and cats all my life in Western Massachusetts, I am used to a pet friendly environment and used to treating animals like they’re apart of your family. I work from home in finance with a lot of time to spare! I can provide them a lot of attention and walk them as many times as needed. I try to make each day special for them when they’re in my care. I love to introduce myself and try to get pets to warm up to me while playing. Treats sometimes help depending on the owner’s preference. If they’re in a new environment, I would give them a quick tour and provide them with a place to lie down. After developing trust, a quick walk and some food should solidify that further.
“Tosha was great! She was very friendly and clearly very experienced with cats and dogs. We appreciated that she came over twice before our trip to meet us and the pets. She sent lots of great photos and kept us updated daily. We highly recommend Tosha as a sitter!”
“can’t recommend Kamilla enough as a petsitter! Nova is usually very reserved and doesn’t like people touching her, but the moment Kamilla arrived, they connected right away. Seeing that bond instantly put me at ease, knowing Nova would be in great hands. Kamilla kept me updated with pictures and regular communication, which made me feel even more comfortable while I was away. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and goes the extra mile, Kamilla is the one!”
About: Hey! My name is Nikki, I am new to rover but I have been dog walking for a few years now. I started my business on the UES/East Harlem but now that I have moved into the neighborhood I am hoping to meet more furry friends and families through here. If you love seeing cute pups in their element take a look on instagram @ tailsandtrails.nyc My schedule is flexible so it allows me to work around your schedule. If something comes up last minute, short notice work trips, or maybe you just need some time for yourself. I completely understand, I got you covered ! Please feel free to reach out to me anytime if you have any questions I allow them to roam as if they were at their own home, I want them to feel comfortable in the space that they are going to be staying at for a few nights or even for the day.I provide updates and pictures while you’re away so that you can feel at ease.
About: I grew up with cats and they felt like sisters to me. I enjoy spending time with animals as they are very healing to me. I have a very flexible and open schedule at the moment for your pet sitting needs. I look forward to meeting your furry children :) I follow the instructions and notes given by clients or friends very carefully. I understand the boundaries the animal sets and I let it come to me when it’s ready.
About: Hey everyone! I'm a part time dog sitter/dog walker in the Kingsbridge and Riverdale area. I gladly accept bookings with a day notice. I'm on this platform because I’ve taken care of dogs for most of my life through my family, family friends, and even neighbors. They've trusted me to nurture, nourish, and exercise their dogs during their very busy schedules. I’m available most days so I can watch your dogs if any conflict quickly arises. I love to go on walks in my neighborhood or the surrounding neighborhoods so it would also be nice to have a little buddy go with me as well. Your dog's well-being and happiness are my top priorities and I look forward to the opportunity to accompanying them on these adventures. When it comes to caring for pets, whether in my own home or at a client's residence, I am dedicated to ensuring their comfort, safety, and well-being.
“Kimberly was the best. I recently moved to another town and I accidentally had the old address on my rover, when I realized she was already there and she accepted coming all the way to my new address without even questioning it. She took amazing care of my dog, she stayed over my place for 4 nights and she left the place cleaner than before and kept me updated the entire time while I was away on a trip. She is very responsible, kind, respectful, fast at texting and a really nice person. I would totally recommend and book her again. Thank you so much.”

FIRST TIME USING ROVER $20 DISCOUNT CODE IS ANALIH85613 ****TWO OR MORE DOGS**** I usually book more than TWO friendly dogs at the same time.

Some dogs bark at my cats, and if they get too close, my cats will defend themselves. My cats usually hide for the first few nights and little by little will come out to get to know the dogs. *****MY CHILDREN*****👦🏻 👧🏻 👶🏻 My children love each dog that stays with us.

“Savanna and Maddy took amazing care of our shy cat. We got updates daily with pictures and a summary on how she was doing, and it was very evident that Savanna was extremely knowledgable about cats and was treating ours with both love and respect. We came back to a clean home and a happy cat, and are planning to book with them again. I would 100% recommend these ladies to anyone looking for a sitter who has buckets of love to give and the knowledge to back it up.”
