“Mallory did an amazing job looking after our dog and cat while we were out. She was fast with communication, sent videos, and we can tell they loved having her visit. I will definitely have her watch them again!”

“I highly recommend Katrina. She took very good care care of our two cats, was very professional throughout the process, and sent updates so we knew how they were doing. We felt totally comfortable leaving them in her care and would absolutely book her again!”

About: Experienced pet sitter. My family and I have had dogs and cats as pets for over 25 years. We have also rescued stray cats and dogs. More recently, I lived with three dogs (all different breeds and sizes) for a year. I have some experience with training puppies and so I enjoy keeping up with any training/habits they have on walks, etc. I dont have any of my own fur babies as of now. But, I look forward to taking care of your pet as my own! I am currently working remote. I enjoy waking up early and taking them for a long walk. As my own rule, I avoid the dog park and any encounters with leashed/unleashed dogs. So, I will usually let them sniff on their walks or have leashed play time at the park. I have toys but I also enjoy doing indoor playtime. I also have no other pets in the apartment and I have a grassy area closeby. It's easy to walk around the neighborhood.
About: I have owned and fostered many different types of animals. I get along well with cats and dogs, and have fostered animals with special needs (bathing, ear cleaning, medication administration). I love to go on long walks and create a connection with animals. My goal is to make your’s and your pet’s lives easier by providing a safe, trustworthy, and reliable service. I currently work remotely and have a car, so I am very available for day-time walks and check ins, as well as into the evening and on weekends. I am happy to adhere to any special needs for your animals, but I’ll always be honest about what I have experience doing. I will follow all care instructions, and make sure to take the safest walking route for your dog!
“Mirielle showed up on time and took good care of Bootsy. She's pleasant to both dogs and their associated humans. It made a long night out more fun because we didn't have to worry about Bootsy.”

About: I’ve cared for puppies and elderly dogs. I have comforted, cleaned and cared for dogs of all sizes. I loved taking my family dogs to the dog park or trail. I currently work part time so I can take your dog to their favorite place. Also care for your dog if they need company during a rainy or noisy day (fireworks). IYKYK I start by scanning the premises to take preventative measures for any hazards. I will also make sure the dog is within my sight at all times.
“Shirley was careful, diligent and kind she took this care taking responsibility seriously and was very good with our cat. She gave us good status updates on how her behavior and mood was her poo status and how much or how little she was eating. Thanks Shirley.”

“We had such a great experience with Kethely! She took wonderful care of our kitty while we were away and gave us so much peace of mind the entire trip. We really appreciated all the updates, photos, and the genuine care and attention she gave him. It made being away from him so much less stressful knowing he was in such good hands. We will and have booked with Kethely again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter 😊! Thank you so much Kethely!”

About: I have taken care of all types of pets for 7 years. I have been taking care of dogs for 2 years. I love all! I am available part time for dog care. Nights are more easier to accept due to my work schedule as a therapist. Let me know and I can work with you! I have a doggy park. I have cages if a dog wants a lone time from other dogs/pets. I have a balcony if it is raining for air and sun. I am available before 7 and after 4:30 usually for drop off on weekdays. I am flexible on weekends. We can accommodate times if told in advance. There is a fenced dog park across the street. The dogs slept separately all day besides during play time. We have cameras inside the house and outside the front door.
About: I've loved animals my entire life and have been surrounded by pets since I was a child. My experience includes volunteering at Furry Friends, where I helped care for animals and learned the importance of patience, compassion, and meeting each pet's individual needs. I've also provided pet care for family, friends, and neighbors, including watching my neighbor's pets while they were away on summer vacations, caring for my sister's dog, and looking after my own two cats. Through these experiences, I've become comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and enjoy building trust with both pets and their families. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule! I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week to care for your furry family members. As long as I have a little advance notice, I'm happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pet gets the love, attention, and reliable care they deserve. Whether it's a quick drop-in or extended care, I'm committed to being there when you need me most! I love making pets feel happy, safe, and loved while their humans are away! I stick to their normal routine by making sure they're fed, have fresh water, get plenty of playtime, walks (if needed), cuddles, and all the attention they want while always respecting their unique personalities and boundaries. I keep their space clean, make sure they're comfortable, and send regular photo and message updates so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in caring hands!
About: Cant think of time where I haven’t been around a dog. Growing up there was always dogs in the house. It comes easy to me. For my 2 dogs it starts at 345am with their first walk before I head to the gym. There 2nd walk comes at 8am before I start work then again at 2pm for a quick lunch break and their last 2 walks come at 5 and 930pm before settling down for the night. In between all the walking they’ll get breakfast and dinner and some naps. Meet and greet is important along with getting to know the pets needs and routines. Along with likes and dislikes. Knowing what the pet parents wants and expects from visits or boarding.
About: I am a professional ballerina transitioning out of her career into the next and looking for a fulfilling job in the meantime! I love animals of all kinds and have experience caring for all different types of dogs and cats, as well as a multitude of exotic animals! I am extremely precise and detail oriented and will always take the utmost care with your beloved pets. Many of my side jobs throughout my ballet career have been caretaking of some sort (nanny, gardener), and I would love to transfer those skills into pet-sitting! I’m currently transitioning careers and looking to start college in January, so I am very flexible. I left a high pressure nannying job in June and am happy to work with your schedule. I am very respectful in your space. I have been a nanny for 3 years and have traveled with the family, stayed at their house often, and am very considerate in your home. I will let the pet lead and wherever they seem most comfortable is where I will be, whether it is their favorite spot next to the couch, or the kitchen chair. I am mindful of any rules or preferences you have, and am focused solely on the animals comfort!

“Lizbeth was amazing and went above and beyond in watching our cats. She followed all instructions and made adjustments when needed. She always checked in and sent pictures. She is very knowledgeable about cats and will do what is best for your pet. We will definitely rebook with Lizbeth for all our future needs.”

“Anya was punctual and very kind and caring with our dogs. Ruby is a nervous dog, and Anya adjusted to her needs. Anya was able to safely walk both dogs together. It was the puppy’s longest walk so far! Both dogs liked Anya a lot. I would recommend Anya for your pet care needs.”

“I was in search of a trust worthy and reliable dog sitter and lucky Rover sent Lexy and I Akshay! Super friendly, flexible, and reliable. The most important factor is that Lexy feels comfortable and safe with him! We look forward to many more walks and home stays.”

About: As a fur parent that has dealt with a range of fur baby needs, I am equipped and willing to handle a wide-range of pet circumstances, and will ensure that I care for your pet, as I would my own. With love, patience, and understanding. We'll have a great time too! I am a contract event producer with Tribeca film festival and sofar sounds, so i have plenty of time throughout the year to give your pet the attention they need. I always ask for a trial meeting with the pet parents and their fur-baby to ask questions, and get a sense of what a normal day looks like in the home. I also ask that all parents document as much about their pet, and their home as possible so that I can be ready for any eventuality.
“Joni is just amazing!! Our pup Milo loves Joni. She walks Milo 3 days a week and helps us out in a pinch. We get great updates from her. She’s helped Milo learn how to go on little bike runs with her and tires our little boy out when needed! She’s also so patient with Milo. We love her and recommend her for all your puppy needs :))))”

Julien did a great job taking care of our 2 cats. One of the cats needs a daily pill and he had to go out of his way to find where she was hiding at times, but he knew the hiding spots. Both of them ended up eating treats out of his hand. I appreciated the daily updates with photos of how everyone was doing. The litter genie was cleaned and everything was neat when we returned. Thanks again for a great job! We will definitely be in touch next time we travel.

Shannon was WONDERFUL and we highly recommend her! We had a 'meet & greet' a few days prior and she was thorough, professional and so good with our dogs. She is so caring and we rested easy knowing our dogs were in her care while we were away. She was also an excellent communicator, followed all instructions for the dogs and was one of the best dog sitters we've ever had. We are very happy that we found her and our pups are, too!
Angelica did a wonderful job taking care of our two kitties, Jellybean and Sid, while we were away! Her detailed rover cards with lots of pictures really helped us feel at ease knowing that our fur babies were getting so much love and care. Would definitely book again — thank you so much!
