“Vanessa took great care of our cat Teddy while we were away. We appreciated her questions in our meet and greet and her attention to detail in his care. Teddy misses her already!”
“Marcela did a wonderful job walking Beau and following instructions as he's still a puppy and training to walk. There is another puppy she walks in the apartment, but although we offered that she could walk Beau together with that puppy, she stated that she preferred to give each dog individual attention, which we were surpised by and appreciated. She took a lot of photos and videos, and we'd gladly ask Marcela to walk Beau again!”
About: Hi, I'm Maria a pet-friendly and responsible caregiver with experience caring for my own pets, my uncle’s dogs and my neighbor senior dog. I’m very careful and attentive with their well-being, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. With an extroverted, kind, and trustworthy personality, I build great connections with both pets and their owners. Some of my skills are: * Daily feeding & maintaining routines * Walking & exercise for active care * Attentive supervision & affection I'm currently working part time since I'm in college my free days are monday and friday all day so I can properly take care of your pet. I live in a cozy basement apartment with direct access to a fenced backyard, perfect for safe play and exercise. Pets in my care enjoy supervised outdoor time, comfort indoors, and lots of affection. Whether at my home or a client’s, I’m careful, attentive, and committed to keeping pets happy and secure.
“Xiaoying is literally the best person for the job. She went up and above with caring for our 3 kitties. It was our first trip away and for a 2 week period so we were very nervous about leaving them alone. We have a 17yr old male senior cat with specific dietary needs and two 4 yr old male and female cats who need lots of play and attention. We booked her for the morning and evening and she played with them, fed them and cleaned their litter boxes. Our lil Luna is very wary of strangers but she loved Xiaoying and even gave her head bumps. We received detailed reports and so many pictures which we loved! The best sitter!!!”
“Laura’s care of our cat Lila was top notch as always. Super responsive and timely, and Lila responds really well to her - eats, plays and is happy. Satisfied repeat customers!”

I’m currently working from home which means I’ll have plenty of time to play with your beloved furry friends! I also have two sisters at home who are just as experienced as I am!

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and intuition I bring to every animal I work with. I’m not just a sitter—I genuinely understand dogs on a deeper level. I’ve helped deliver puppies, cared for senior dogs with patience and attention to their changing needs, and I have hands-on experience rehabilitating abused and neglected animals. That means I’m calm, observant, and able to read behavior quickly—whether it’s a nervous rescue or an energetic puppy still learning boundaries. I’m especially comfortable with puppies (potty training, basic commands, structure) and senior dogs who need a slower pace, medication, or extra comfort. I also naturally go above and beyond—whether that’s making sure routines are followed closely, giving extra affection, or keeping a close eye on subtle changes in behavior or health. Outside of sitting, caring for animals is just part of who I am. I regularly feed and look out for stray animals, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be understood, protected, and genuinely cared for. As an only child, I’ve always found a deep sense of comfort and connection in caring for dogs. Being able to meet their needs, earn their trust, and give them love brings me a genuine sense of purpose and fulfillment. It’s something that feels natural to me, and it’s a big part of why I’m so dedicated to the care I provide. I have a large, fully fenced yard with low grass, which creates a safe and comfortable space for dogs to walk, play, run, and enjoy plenty of outdoor time.
“Raul did an excellent job pet sitting for Gunner. He made sure to follow instructions my husband and I gave him, which gave us a peace of mind. When something wasn’t completely clear, he checked in with me, I really appreciated that level of communication and care. It’s safe to say he’s doing a great job getting to know both us and Gunner, and we feel comfortable trusting him with our dog. Highly recommend!”
“Eleni was WONDERFUL with my 2 cats!!! I will definitely be hiring her again!!! Mochi has diabetes and requires an insulin injection every 12 hours in addition to another medication twice a week and Eleni was happy to learn and able to give Mochi his meds which can be a bit daunting and sometimes difficult depending on his mood. but Eleni was attentive and really took the time to learn and care for him properly! my other cat Kumo is a scaredy baby and rarely shows his face around people but Eleni was patient and really put effort into getting him comfortable with her. Eleni updated me with great details about how they’re doing and food. the weather was changing every day from being very cold and then very hot and Eleni proactively adjusted the thermostat accordingly when needed! she would turn on cat TV every couple days AND put treats in their treat games daily so they would stay occupied during the day. Mochi had an accident and Eleni didn't hesitate to clean it up and take out the trash. she really took care of everything!”
“Mayleth is great with my fur baby!! Ollie is a so shy but he accepts her when she gives him treats. She is so patient and gentle with him. This is my second time she has taken care of my baby. She also follows every step of instructions. Thank you for such a great experience!!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals ever since I was about 12 years old. In high school I was a vet tech, but now I am a work from home pet mama that is looking to help out people who need to have their dog walked or in need of a pet sitter. I work from home so my schedule can be very flexible. If there is a time you don’t see available on my calendar please reach out to me and I can accommodate for you :) My cats (or any pet I have) are my entire world! Currently I have 2 senior fur kitties 10 and 13 who enjoy cuddling up with their mama on the couch while watching movies and also love the outdoors! Their favorite thing to do in the spring and summer is to sun bathe in our backyard and take in the views while the wind hits their face (supervised of course). If I’m taking care of your pet I will treat them like my own. I am always happy to meet before your trip to discuss logistics and get to know your fur baby so they feel comfortable with me.
“Qilin was an amazing cat sitter! She sent lots of photos and updates during her visits and some very cute videos. She even brought her own laser toy to play with them! It looked like our cats had a blast while we we were away. Thanks so much Qilin!!!”
About: I've had cats and dogs all my life. My family adores animals, and your pet will receive lots of love and attention from our household (my husband and I as well as our two college aged children). We recently lost our dog of 12 years and are looking to fill that hole with the time spent with your fur baby. I have a private fenced yard and there is a park on the corner of my home. I will manage all your pet's needs. I work part time 5 minutes from home. There will be at least 3 walks a day and lots of attention. FYI there is usually a family member home at all times. Pets are allowed on furniture. I will follow your regimen and provide videos and photos of your pet. I only want to service one to two pets at a time. There are no young children in our home.
“Peggy is very nice and responsive. She took good care of my dog during drop-in visits. She sent me many pictures of my dog and gave me some details how my dog was doing while we were out of town. I’m satisfied with her service and I would like to highly recommend her to anyone who are looking for a dog walker/drop-in visits and so on.”
About: I’ve been taking care of my very own dog since I was nine years old I had a beagle and a dachshund in which I both used to care for I would feed them, walk them, go to the park and engage in activities, give baths when needed. I have also pet sat for my friend’s dogs or cats when needed. My passion is for animals. I have worked in a veterinary setting for over a year and I do have knowledge of animals my main priority and what I strive for is the care these animals will receive. I currently own a year 10 old dachshund who is the sweetest boy ever.! my goal and my passion is treating these animals, as if they are my own I am highly experienced with the dachshund breed being an owner of them for over 20yrs, I have knowledge with senior dog care. I have administered oral medication insulin, and any nutritional values. The owner may request. I currently do have an open availability genuinely starting at 10 AM and I am available seven days a week, pet care has just always been a passion of mine However, I’m instructed to do so, many animals have different needs and require different instructions so it’s very mindful to be open about specific cares of your pet and needs and it will be my pleasure to ensure high quality care
About: I am very conscientious and like dogs. I always had a dog while growing up, but I don't have one now because I feel it is not ideal for a dog to live in a confined apartment, especially you are working and have to be away all day. I live in a dog-friendly residential neighborhood so there are plenty of places to walk the dog---the streets are quiet and not too much traffic. There is also a large park not too far away which I go to on nice days and could take the dog to. Also my apartment is pretty big and there is plenty of room for your dog to walk about. I also don't mind if your dog gets up on the couch with me (or by himself)---I don't have any problems with him being comfortable. PLEASE READ MY ENTIRE PROFILE. There are some dogs I am unable to host. Thanks! Now that I'm retired I have time on my hands. I will take care of your dog as though it is my own, and he or she will have no restrictions in my apartment--the couch, the bed, wherever he wants to lounge is fine with me! I treat your dogs as though they're my own. They have the run of the apartment, can lounge on the sofa, and sleep with me if they want to. I will also strictly maintain any dietary restrictions you need for your dog.
Middle Village pet parents share their Rover experiences
Xiaoying was so great! She took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. My cat needs medication every other day and regular facial cleaning, and she handled everything perfectly. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about my cat’s well-being. I was especially impressed by how clean and organized everything was when I returned. She went above and beyond, and I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such good hands. I would gladly book with her again and highly recommend her to others.
From the very first interaction, Leah stood out as someone I could genuinely trust with Ollie. During our meet and greet, she asked all the right questions — about his routines, temperament, any behavioral quirks, and anything else she should know. She also made it clear she would never introduce him to other dogs without first ensuring it was safe, which I really appreciated. Leah was wonderfully patient with him during the meet and greet, understanding that letting him come to her on his own terms was the best way to build trust. Since Ollie is still young and learning to be comfortable around new people, her calm and unhurried approach made a real difference. During the sitting itself, she kept me well informed with updates, photos, and thoughtful notes about how he was doing. And when a family emergency came up and my plans had to shift on the fly, she adapted without hesitation — her flexibility and understanding during a stressful time meant so much. I would absolutely recommend Leah to anyone looking for a sitter who is gentle, attentive, and truly has your dog’s best interests at heart.
I was anxious to leave my kitties for a long trip, but with Sophia, I very quickly knew they would be well taken care of. She goes above and beyond during her visits, ensuring they are fed and the litter boxes cleaned, but also playing with them, giving them love and vacuuming the floor so that they are not surrounded by litter. I will definitely be a return customer.
Diana is great and I would recommend her to all my pet parent friends! She's been super accommodating to my last minute changes / requests. She has also been great with my Odie - even as a dog who needs extra attention on walks and at home. Diana also helped me out with taking care of my foster kittens when I was away which was super helpful! And being available on the weekend was a major plus. Couldn't recommend Diana enough!
Paula was amazing! This was our first time using Rover and she took such good care of our babies. We have two cats that she visited and fed every morning while we were on vacation . She was really responsive, responsible, friendly , loving and kind . I got videos and photos everyday along with updates . She was a blessing . I was totally at ease knowing she was caring for our boys . I highly recommend her !
Another fantastic set of visits with Mark! All three of our cats love him and he goes above and beyond to make them feel comfortable while we’re away. My wife and I look forward to his messages, photos, and videos - they add so much joy and comfort to our trips!
Laura is very attentive and took great care of my cat, Bunny! Bunny had some mild diarrhea right before we left for our trip, but thanks to Laura’s attentive care, she was back to her healthy self in no time. She also kept me updated and took lots of pics which I really appreciated. Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️
Victoria is the absolute best and I’m so happy I’ve met her through Rover. I used to get anxious leaving my cat when I traveled but I definitely don’t anymore knowing that Oliver is in her care. She brings him new toys and puts on cat tv with him, will take the time to sit with him for longer than her visit free of charge, and cleans even though it is not required. Thanks so much again, Victoria :)
Jennifer was fantastic—even our most bashful cat, who had to be allowed to eat in the bedroom on her first day, was showing up to greet Jen at the front door by the end of her gig. We got plenty of photos from each session, and they were happy and full of energy when I finally came home. I would definitely ask her to take care of our cats again!
Our cat Teddy was glad to see Vanessa again for a couple days while we were out of town. She took good care of him and provided updates and photos. Vanessa is easy to work with, and we appreciated her prompt and thorough communication before, during, and after her visits as needed. Thank you!
