“Robin was an absolute fantastic sitter for my dog Dora, & cat Arlo. She was prompt, communicative & I could tell my furry children really enjoyed having her company while I was away overnight. Thank you Robin!”


“Alina was amazing with my cat Izzy. Izzy doesn't come out for everyone but came out for Alina each time. Alina's reports were sothorough and made me feel like my cat was being so well cared for.”


“We had a lovely meet and greet with Barbara. She was great with Dot while we were away as we could tell from her messages and pictures - and that Dot was a happy little critter when we got home. It's nice to leave Dot with someone we know will take good care of her.”

“Cipriana and her mom were fantastic! I could see from the photos (and there were tons of great ones!) that my little boy was having fun with them. I’m a first-time user and definitely would use them again.”


About: I didn’t get to experience the joy of growing up with dogs or cats but as soon as I was able I began taking in fosters from the NYC shelter system. It was quite a learning experience spending time with many dogs (and a few cats) of all different types and personalities. I no longer foster but I bring the experience and dedication from working with so many shelter pets to caring for your furry family members. And as a pet parent now myself I have been through many sitters so I understand what makes a good one! A note on boarding and meet and greets: I’m happy to have boarding candidates come by to meet me and check out the space but I do not do meet and greets with my own dogs. My dogs are dog friendly but they are too chaotic and excitable to meet new dogs and owners right away. New dogs are kept separate at first and introduced at their own pace when everyone is calm. This minimizes stress for everyone and allows for better interactions. I currently work out of the house Monday/Wednesday/Friday but my schedule is somewhat flexible. The rest of the week I work at home and I am often available all weekend. Dogs in my home have access to a securely fenced large yard for running and fetch, as well as a quiet neighborhood for walks. If the weather is warm dogs have access to a dog door so they may go outside as they please. If your dog likes to play with other dogs mine will certainly be happy to accommodate but they can also have separate spaces if quiet time is needed. In your home I will make every effort to keep your pets schedule as familiar as possible while offering lots of love and stimulation. As someone who has had many sitters come through and stay at my house I understand the importance of trust and cleanliness so you can be away without worry.

“Sam did an amazing job taking care of my cat Apollo while I was away. My cat seemed happy when I got home which is always a great sign. I’d definitely book with Sam again and highly recommend them to other pet owners!”


“Olivia was really wonderful! My cat seemed to take to her immediately. She gave me updates with pictures and when I got home my cat seemed peaceful like she had been well taken care of.”


About: I am a life-long animal lover and an experienced walker and sitter for dogs. I also am great with cat care. I have over 25 years of pet care experience and provide catered attention for each pet I sit whether in your home or mine. I can provide references beyond my Rover testimonials, as I am still relatively new to the app. I have worked in pet care privately for several years. I am a full-time dog walker and pet sitter. I am available for daily walks and pet sitting - whether for a day, week,or longer. I am available to care for your pet in your home if preferred !!

I strive to provide all pets in my care with the appropriate exercises and stimulation to meet their daily physical requirements and interests.

About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life. I’ve helped walk, play, bathe and feed relatives/friends pets as well. I’ve also have done hands on interactive training with my dogs. I’m a recent college graduate looking for activities that I can make money and enjoy doing! I work nights at a restaurant so I am free during daytime. 🌞 I am very calm and know how to read pets. I’m willing to read the situation and take your word on how to best care for your pet family.

About: I have been a Professional Pet Sitting for over 10 years and have spent a lifetime caring for dogs and cats.

I offer premium in home Concierge Overnight Care for your pets when you cannot be there. Have the peace of mind of your house and pets lovingly cared for while you travel.

About: I have taken care of all types of dogs for over 10 years. Friends, neighbors, and family have relied on me and hired me to care for their pets for extended periods of time. I have done as little as walking their dog to hosting them for weeks at a time. I am comfortable walking, feeding, playing, and administering medicine. I work part-time so i am usually available to care for your little ones in the afternoon. I would love a long term, set schedule but I am flexible and welcome anyone who needs pupcare!! I have a beautiful pitbull/boxer mix who loves to play with others. She loves to run for long periods of time and share her toys and treats with others. My husband and I own a home with a very large fenced in yard where we would constantly watch them play. When I am in a client’s home I adhere to the dogs needs. I take them for long walks or exercise and play games to stimulate the mind.

About: I have always had a special connection with dogs. I grew up with dogs and treated them like part of the family.

About: *AKC evaluator and trainer* I've been a passionate pet owner for as long as I can remember, and my experience spans a diverse range of animals. Over the years, I’ve cared for everything from a fascinating Savannah monitor lizard to a vibrant saltwater aquarium, where I've successfully hatched sharks. My love for animals has also led me to breed Goldendoodles for three years, which was an incredibly rewarding experience. Currently, I’m the proud owner of a Standard Poodle named Lucy, who brings immense joy to my life. She’s not just a pet but a cherished companion, and I take great pride in her. What truly distinguishes me from others is my hands-on experience in training my own service dog. This unique skill set has equipped me with a deep understanding of animal behavior and training techniques. I’m committed to providing ongoing updates and insights, ensuring that the training and well-being of my pets, particularly Lucy, are continually enhanced. My dedication to animals goes beyond mere ownership; it's about creating meaningful connections and achieving exceptional results through personalized care and training. Your pet will receive my undivided attention around the clock, as my job schedule is highly flexible. This means that I am available to provide continuous care and companionship for your beloved animal at any time of day or night. Whether your pet enjoys frequent play sessions, quiet relaxation, or just a comforting presence, I can accommodate their needs with ease. Additionally, I understand how important it is to stay connected with your pet while you’re away. To keep you informed and reassured, I offer regular photo updates and progress reports. You can expect to receive these updates whenever you like, giving you peace of mind and allowing you to see how well your pet is doing in my care. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I am committed to providing both exceptional care and transparent communication throughout their time with me. Safety and trust are paramount for everyone involved. I believe that the cornerstone of being trustworthy and providing a secure and welcoming environment for your pet lies in consistency, compassion, and humility. By maintaining a reliable routine and showing genuine care, I ensure that your pet feels comfortable and safe at all times. Respecting the owner's boundaries is fundamental to my approach. I make it a priority to adhere to any specific instructions and preferences you have for your pet's care and your home. My goal is to uphold the condition of your home exactly as you left it, ensuring that both your pet and your living space are well cared for. Your peace of mind is important to me, and I strive to create a seamless experience that reflects the respect and attention to detail that you deserve.

About: I've always loved animals and after years of convincing my parents, I got my first dog 11 years ago. He's a wonderful and healthy Pomeranian boy named Saige. Since he was my first pet I initially enrolled him in some classes to be trained where I'd of course accompany him and once the methods of training made sense, I was able to continue the training myself. I even learned to groom him after multiple negative groomer experiences which I'm sure a lot of pet owners can relate to. I actually really enjoy bathing, combing and cutting his hair to a point where I considered working as a pet groomer. I have experience caring for sick pets and providing medication as my dog has had two surgeries for the same genetic condition. I didn't have any significant interactions with cats until a year ago when I saw a stray in my backyard and decided to feed her. I thought she was a boy and named her Levi; little did I know Levi was pregnant and gave birth a couple weeks later to two kittens, Lila and Maya, who I absolutely adore and have adopted since. I knew I loved dogs but I didn't know how much I'd begin to adore cats. Their athleticism, wittiness, unending purrs, intelligence and comforting affection has fulfilled me in many ways. A woman who helped me spay the cats asked me to sit her senior cat named Tiger while she was away multiple times and I enjoyed it very much. From that experience I realized this is something I'd really enjoy doing more so I signed up for Rover. After signing up, I began walking a Great Pyrenees named Zack. I was his walker for over a year before I moved upstate. I loved walking Zack and learnt a lot about dog walking by walking such a big boy. He liked 2 hour walks in the morning and 1 hour walks in the evening so I’m used to long walks if your pet requires! I've had parakeets from the age of 7-16 so know how to provide basic care like food, water, and cage cleaning. I've also been vegan for 10 years now because of my love for all animals. I hope you can intrust me to help care for your pet and spend some great moments with them. I currently work over the weekends, including some Fridays. I'd be available on weekdays to petsit and/or provide walks for your pet! If you have any special request for Fridays you can contact me and I can let you know if I'd be available. I can provide your pet company, playtime, walks, of course meals, necessary medication and even some grooming like baths, ear cleaning, dental cleaning and am open to whatever other specifications you may have for what your pet needs.

About: I grew up with multiple dogs and cats in my house. As the youngest of the family I was the defecto caregiver. As an adult I have been lucky to get to live with more animals but also watch and care for friends' pets. I currently work part time in post production so I have a pretty loose scheduling of my week to week activity. I also like to start my day pretty early so getting out and seeing pets is a great use of my downtime. I like to make sure that pets that get visits feel like they aren't all alone. I know when I travel I want my cat to feel like they aren't deserted. I personally like to make sure to have spare treats with me for any pet I get to look after but also ensure that the time spent in the home with the pet is spent as active as that pet wants to be. That can range from full on playtime to quietly sitting with them on the couch.

Moreover, I know Rupinder to be well experienced in caring for both her own pets, and for those of others.

Blake is reliable and punctual and a great communicator. You won't have to worry about him cutting corners with your pets. Blake has watched Roy for extended periods and always kept me in the loop about how he was doing. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing Roy was in great hands.”
