“This was the second time I have used Barb and Rover. My dogs needs have evolved and Barb adapted well to the increased complexity needed to care for my dogs. I feel confident that I can rely upon her again when I need to.”
“This was my first time using Rover and first time hiring Mariah, but definitely not the last. She was wonderful to work with and it was such a relief to not have to worry about the cats while I was away. Communication was great, sent lots of pics and updates. So very happy I found her!”
About: I’ve been taking care of my two lab mix dogs for 14 years and many others before Annie and Copper. Annie is a senior with issues such as she’s almost totally blind and her hips are very stiff but she still loves her walks. I’m patient and don’t mind cleaning up her accidents. My son flies me to Long Island 3 times a year to cat sit for Thea and Ollie and they are a joy! I would never rush and will always provide quality time with your pet. I took an early retirement in 2020 during Covid so I have plenty of time and I enjoy walking. I try to get in an average of 12,00 steps a day. I’m very respectful of other people’s property. I couldn’t care for a pet in my home because of my two dogs. They’re older and very set in their routine. I’m very used to feeding and washing out their bowls and making sure they always have water. Picking up after them is something I try to do asap. It’s more sanitary to always keep up with it and it also keeps them from stepping in it the next time they go out. I also cat sit for my neighbor and my son so scooping is no big deal either. If needed, I can brush your pet, wash their face, wipe their feet and even bathe if necessary.
“Ronene has only come 2 days now to break up my baby’s long crate day while I work and I’ve already seen the difference! So much calmer (as much as a 7 month old puppy can be calm!) when I get home! I love this woman! She is a pittie lover for sure!❤️”
“Jackie went above and beyond to help me out in a pinch, and she was completely understanding of my pets’ needs— highly recommended!”
“Ahlee was so sweet, understanding, efficient, kind and trust worthy. Hope to have her help again w my 🐶🐾”
“Outstanding experience, would call Erin again in a heartbeat! We were able to enjoy our son's wedding and the doggies loved her! Thank you! ❤️❤️”
“Sara has been incredible! Maple absolutely loves her, and gets so excited each time she comes. She arrives on time, sends adorable updates, and makes sure Maple is good and tired when she leaves! We are so thankful for all of Sara’s help and can’t recommend her high enough!”
“Jessica was a huge help to us with our brood! The dogs all loved her and she was great with updates and photos. We will definitely be calling her again. 🐾”
“Jenny did such an amazing job caring for our dog while we were away. She did extra little things that she didn’t have to do, as taking her for short walks and stayed extra time with her when she was feeling anxious, as our dog has high anxiety and Jenny made sure to keep her comfortable. I was very nervous about leaving my dog knowing her anxiety levels, but Jenny made it so smooth going and made me feel much better about it all! Great communication with me each time she came in my home to care for her too! I will definitely recommend Jenny to anyone that is looking for care for their pet while being away!”
“Jocelyn is wonderful! Just by seeing the pictures that she sent me I can see that Etta responded to her immediately! I felt very comfortable with her and will continue to have her take care of my extended family in the future! ❤️”
About: I have been working with dogs since I was in 6th grade. I trained my childhood dog through a 4H program and we completed at the county fair each year in Obedience and Rally. Now I have a rescue who over the past 4 years we've helped work through a lot of reactivity and she now is an active participant in Rally competitions and other classes. As a teacher my summer is wide open for walks and drop in visits. Once the school year starts after school and weekends are open. I'm very comfortable with dogs of various sizes and needs. I can crate your furry family members, get them fed, out for walks etc. I'm comfortable with various walking equipment from harnesses to gentle leaders and collars.
About: I’ve been taking care of my family’s, friends, & neighbors pets for about 15 years. I do not mind watching multiple pets at once and I’m also very comfortable with pets who need meds and special care! Basically anything your pup/kitty needs I’m happy to be of service! I have a very pet friendly work schedule. I work Monday - Friday from 6am - 2pm every week I have no kids so all time after work is free time. I live in an apartment which is the only reason why I do not offer service at my own home but I am comfortable staying anywhere. Usually I have my clients write down any and all important instructions I need to know regarding the pet/pets so I can follow those instructions to a tee without forgetting any detail! I will always update the owners with texts / pics throughout my stay in order to provide piece of mind while you’re away!
“Wonderful! Will book again!”
“Erica and Lacey hit it off right away. It really put my mind at ease while I am away. Looking forward to them getting to know each other and will continue to have Erica come over.”
“I love Aryanna! Can just tell she is super comfortable around dogs, especially large dogs, which was important to me. Very friendly and personable! I’ll be using her services a lot!”
About: Been around dogs my whole life. I have a special place in my heart for bully breeds. Very comfortable with all size and personality of dogs. Available for a few evenings a week and weekend walking and drop in visits. Comfortable with all size animals and needs levels. Happy to do longer length walks for high activity needs dogs. I will only be offering walking and drop in visits at this time. I am happy to bring leashes/harnesses or use what you provide. For drop in visits, it's your own, your rules.
About: I have 30 years of pet experience including dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish. Everyone forgets about feeding the fish! If watching your pet at your home, I will be sure to make sure that not only your pets is safe, happy and taken care of but that your home is looked after as well. I have been a home owner for 17 years and have great attention to detail. Your pet will be in safe and loving hands. I do provide daily pictures with updates if that is something you would like. I work a 4 day work week and have great availability to spend a lot of time with your pets in order to give them the best care while you are away. I have a fenced in yard so your pet would not need to be able to be walked on a leash but love to go on walks if that is what the prefer. I treat your pets the same way I treated my princess of a dog when she was still with us. They are allowed anywhere you would let them and I respect your rules. If you don't like them on furniture or in beds I comply and follow through with those wishes. I try to keep thier routine the same as you use to keep the pet relaxed and happy.
About: I will take care of your animals when you need it! And you will not have to worry about your animal’s safety or care while in my hands! You can trust me Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule inbetween going to school, and coming home to take care of my own family furry companions! Why not help other families in need? I have a fenced in yard, and I have two friendly dogs that your dog/s can play with or cuddle with, I do have a medium sized crate if need be. But I do not crate my dogs.
About: I work as a behavior for individuals with autism, which helps with managing behavior issues at home. I am not a certified dog trainer, but I want to be one day. I have trained every dog I've every owned. I work 5 days/week 40 hours/week. I see clients throughout the day and my schedule is generally flexible. As long as I have advanced notice (2-3 days) I can fit you throughout the week. Otherwise, I am available on the weekends too. If need be, I may place your dog in a crate or gated area to protect your dog from any other dogs nearby. On walks, your dog will be by my side at all times and I will help them learn not to choke on the leash as they usually do.

Deborah C.
“Deb C. is my neighbor and also my cat sitter. Lucy (my cat) can be difficult, but Deb is great with her and they are becoming friends! She is dependable and goes beyond what is required. As a neighbor, I also get to see her interact with her own dogs. One of them is quite elderly and Deb patiently takes her for gentle, quiet walks every day. Deb and her husband have also befriended a neighborhood stray cat providing him with not only food, but also a warm, safe place to spend the nights. He is totally devoted to Deb's husband and can often be seen with him working in the yard. Deb would provide excellent care for anyone looking for a sitter or walker for their dog or cat. I would highly recommend her!”

“Brandi is amazing with dogs. She spends so much of her time and energy every day making sure her dog, Koda, has the best life possible. She's always thinking about how to make Koda happy, safe, and healthy. She is very good with behavior training. Koda has made a ton of progress since she was rescued and is much less reactive than she used to be. Anyone should feel very good about leaving their dogs in Brandi's care.”

We are booking him again for our next vacation to watch our furry babies!”

“Michaela has been a wonderful pet sitter already. An internship took me out of town for three months where I had no-pet policy housing and she took care of my cat for those months with daily updates, pictures and videos to keep me close to my baby while I was away. She is responsible and knowledgeable on not just cat care, but dogs as well! She is wonderful with my puppies and I would trust her any day with them! Alongside caring for other people's animals she is a devoted pet-mom herself to three wonderful kitties each with their own quirks that she attends dutifully and carefully to. She is thoughtful and caring through and through!”
