I couldn’t have better things to say about Samantha! She kindly helped me out in a pinch. She was communicative, kind, professional, and Perry loved her. Look forward to having her watch Perry again in the future.

Kirsten was amazing with my cat! I had to book last minute and she was incredibly accommodating! Sweetie was so well-taken care of and Kirsten was wonderful when it came to updating me. Would definitely recommend her and will be booking again!

We do daily walks with Rosanna and I have to say it’s one of the best care taking experiences we have had for our 8 mo puppy Penelope! Rosanna is extremely thorough, consistent, and thoughtful. Her detailed daily updates are incredibly helpful. She trains Penelope, is very sweet with her, and goes the extra mile. We’ll have Rosanna as long as she will have us!! ☺️🐾

Mary went above and beyond taking care of my two cats while I was gone for a full week. One of my cats had a few accidents while I was away and Mary when the extra mile, ensuring he was okay and cleaning up the area. She also was extremely communicative, sent plenty of pictures, and gave my cat so much love! I could not recommend her enough!

About: Animals have been drawn to me my whole life, just as I have been drawn to them! I’ve had about every pet you could think of, and even went vegan for ethical reasons and never went back! Dogs have a very special place in my heart. I’m comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs, I will dedicate my time to loving them just like you do! If possible, I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you're away. I have a sweet dog of my own, a cockapoo, who is full of energy and curiosity! I couldn’t live without him. I work from home 4 days a week which allows me to spend lots of quality time playing in the park and making new furry friends! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. When I’m with your pets, I would love to take your precious babies for walks, to parks, or take on anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable!

This is our second time booking with Vanessa. She was very kind, professional, and quick to respond. Vanessa always sends tons of adorable pictures and videos of our cat, and she provides tons of play time such that our cat is always excited to see her. She has a keen eye for detail and notices when some behavior seems unusual, so I feel like I’m always in the loop and that my cat is in super safe hands. Extremely happy to have found Vanessa!

About: ⭐️ Get $20 off your first booking! Use code ANTOIC46087: https://www.rover.com/sit/antoic46087 For the past 26 years, dogs have always been an integral part of my life. I am lucky to have been surrounded by their love since I was 6, and (not to brag but) have always been my dogs' favorite human in my family. From a 16 year old toy poodle diva, to an anxious but goofy rescued doppelgänger of Dante (from Disney's Coco), I have plenty of experience training and caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and different needs. DOG BOARDING - snuggles after playtime to calm your dog down before bedtime is an important thing I've learned from raising a hyperactive beagle puppy HOUSE SITTING - light occasional snack can help with bonding and distracting a dog who is anxious to have a stranger home while waiting for their beloved human to return DOGGY DAY CARE - tidying up my own place not only for my own good, but also to keep dangerous items or poisonous foods out of reach DOG WALKING - running, brisk walking, or slow strolls :) ✦ Schedule ─ I work mostly from home, so your fur children can always have my time and attention, and regular walkies or outside breaks. ✤ Environment ─ I am confident that your fur baby will trust and feel safe with me. I live on my own and can give them 100% of my attention.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and truly love caring for them. Over the years, I’ve had experience with a variety of breeds, including Shiba Inu (and mixes), Yorkshire Terrier, Beagle, and Labradoodle, so I’m comfortable working with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I always focus on creating a safe, happy, and positive experience for every dog. Being around them naturally makes me smile, and I do my best to make sure they feel the same way during our time together. I’ve completed 300 walks on Wag, gaining hands-on experience with many different dogs, and I love staying active—so your pup will get plenty of exercise, attention, and fun on every walk! I’m a part-time dog walker, but my schedule is pretty flexible, so I can usually work around whatever time works best for you. Just give me a heads-up a day in advance, and we’ll make it happen! I mainly provide walking services, but I’m also happy to do drop-in visits or house sitting at your place (my apartment isn’t big enough for dogs). I typically walk dogs around Lower Manhattan and Chelsea. Wherever we go, your pup will get plenty of fun, exercise, and attention! I always prioritize safety, comfort, and a positive environment for every dog in my care, whether we’re walking outside or spending time at your home. Before our first walk or visit, I like to learn about your dog’s personality, habits, and preferences—such as their age, gender, favorite activities, how they react to other dogs or people, and any food allergies or sensitivities. Knowing these details helps me provide a safe, fun, and stress-free experience tailored to your pup, so they can enjoy their time with me while staying happy, healthy, and well cared for.

Valerie is a wonderful person and care giver. My cat actually looked behind me for Valerie. My cuddles has never been interested in watching TV before. But Valerie found a channel on YouTube for him. She sent me pictures of him watching a cartoon fish program. She maintained his liter box and his feeding to perfection. It's no small feet to trust .

Esther was great with communication and taking care of our puppy Chutney! She was very thoughtful and attentive to our home and baby. Chutney can be a little shy at first until he opens up and Esther was so considerate giving him his space and waiting until he was comfortable to play with her. We will absolutely book with Esther again.

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life. I grew up with my mini schnauzer, Chiky, who I had for 11 years and took care of from a young age. She was truly my best friend, and growing up with her taught me just how important dogs are in our lives, how much genuine, selfless love they give, and how much care and attention they need in return. I currently work a hybrid part-time job, so I’m home most of the time. Occasionally I have to go into the office, but it’s very close to home, so I’m still nearby and readily available. I’m flexible during the week for walks, drop-ins, and sitting, and I’m fully available on weekends! I live in a top-floor apartment that’s very homey and cozy, with lots of natural light from skylights. While I don’t have a yard or balcony, I make sure dogs get the exercise and care they need through walks and playtime.

Cheryl is an amazing cat sitter. She watched our 3 cats for a little over a week and always gave us daily updates, photos and videos! She was so understanding of their different diets, medications and personalities winning over our shy boy Dart! We came home to 3 very happy cats :) Will definitely book her again!

About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember - I spent my free time in high school and college volunteering at local shelters and veterinary hospitals just to be around dogs and cats. I have lived with dogs my whole life, and find nothing more joyous than a happy dog. I'd love to be a part of your furry friend's life - from walks, to home visits, to overnights, my goal is to make your dog or cat as happy as if they were my own! I currently work from a (pet friendly) office 3-4 days per week, but live in a one bedroom apartment so your pet can have the place to themself while I’m gone! On the weekends I can be home for as long as needed, if I’m watching your pup I love going on long walks. Overall, I am happy to be there for whatever they may need! I have multiple years of experience with walking and care for pets and am happy to adapt to whatever needs your pet may have. Whether its walking instructions, feeding, or night time routines, I will help wherever I can!

Ava was amazing with Ollie! She took care of him very well and was patient until he came out of his shell. He can be a bit shy at first but he ended up loving her and was comfortable to play with her and loaf next to her on the couch! Thank you Ava and I’ll definitely be booking you again :)

Anne is truly the best! She took such incredible care of my cats while I was away on vacation. She kept me updated with thoughtful messages and photos the whole time. Coming home to two happy, relaxed cats made it clear they had been loved and well cared for while I was gone. Will definitely have her watch them again!
