About: I have cared for more dogs than I can count over the years (whether it be through caring for my own or fostering or dog sitting or all three at once - a crazy time indeed!). After losing my soul dog of more than 10.5 Years, Jax, I am looking forward to welcoming your pup into my home as if they were my own while making some extra money so that I can continue to fund my foster efforts! I currently work from home, have held my current position for 9.5 Years, so am very flexible and can work around your pet's schedule, so long as my call schedules allow. I live in a studio apartment in a quiet, dog-friendly building. Unless otherwise instructed, pets will have full access to my apartment, including the couch and bed. If your dog is crate trained, he/she will be in the crate when I am not home and during sleep hours (if he/she sleeps in the crate at night). At night, your dog is welcome to sleep wherever he/she desires whether that be the couch, his/her dog bed, or on my bed (I am all about making your fur baby feel as comfortable as possible!)
“Madeline is the best! She stayed with my two pups for a week and was incredible. She sent me a full update each day with many pics! She was communicative, caring and followed all of my instructions.”
“Britt is amazing! She took amazing care of our 3 animals while we were away and too great care of our home as well. She is super responsive, communicative, and caring. We will definitely be using Britt again!”
“Michelle was available last minute for us and did a fantastic job. We left our pups in a hotel in the city and she came and hung out with them so we could go see a show. Thanks Michelle!”
“Ammon was wonderful!! Our pup is notoriously shy, but Ammon was patient and kind and quickly won her over! Sent lots of picture updates of walks in the park and snuggles on the couch. Thank you, Ammon!”
“Kenine was great during a 2 night stay with our dog who can be a bit difficult with new people. She was patient with him while he acclimated and she was very communicative with us. I definite recommend Kenine and will use her again”
“Caroline took such great care of my senior pup! She sent frequent updates and took her on great walks. She was super attentive to my dogs needs and made sure she was happy while I was out of town, would 10/10 book again!”
“Saifa took such good care of my dog. My dog is dog reactive, takes meds, and had a sore on his foot and Saifa took care of all of that perfectly. She was forward thinking and came to me with things she thought my dog could use and ordered them. She sent pics of everything she did, gave my son enrichment and was overall excellent. Communication 10/10, care 10/10.”
“Razan was wonderful with Scooby. She has such a calm and gentle energy, which was so good for him. He felt very comfortable with her, and I could tell he was in great hands. Will absolutely book her again 😊”
“So grateful to have found such a wonderful sitter for my Roxy and Leo! What a load off my mind, I could actually enjoy my trip knowing they were in such good hands.”
“Sam has been great with pups providing us much needed support in looking after him whilst we’re away. She has a great rapport with dogs and is very personable. We’ll be using her again!”
“Durgaprasad was great! My dog Penelope really loved spending time with him. As a puppy she requires a lot of attention and bathroom trips. I can tell DP really enjoyed spending time with her and talking care of her. He was followed all my instructions and left my places clean and organized. I will definitely work with him again.”
“It’s always nerve-wracking to find a new sitter, but Ashley was such a gift while I was away. She’s an incredibly attentive and thoughtful sitter who took amazing care of my cat, Bowie, who can get separation anxiety and has some specific routines. I could tell he felt comfortable and well looked after in her care. She checked in regularly, asked great questions, and shared thoughtful updates and photos that gave me real peace of mind. I always miss him when I’m away, but knowing he was in such capable, caring hands made all the difference. After a medical issue that had developed during a previous stay, Ashley adapted our care plan, kept to his routine, and was fully prepared to administer medication when needed. This was one of the most positive experiences I’ve had on Rover — I’d love to work with her again. Thank you again, Ashley!”
“Theresa was very professional and did a fantastic job watching my two cats for an overnight stay! She kept me updated and was very conscientious of the details of their care, would definitely book again for future trips.”
“Kevin was great and a huge help watching Sora for an extended period of time (10+ nights). I returned to a healthy dog and a clean apartment, so happy with the service he provided! Would book again!”
“Abdelkader was excellent! He was communicative and followed all the directives that I left for him. To be honest, I don’t plan on using anyone else for my cat sitting services if I can avoid it. He’s just that good! I look forward to booking his services again!”
“Jake was an incredible sitter! They took such good care of our senior dog. Jake was very communicative with us, sending several updates (and cute pictures) over the course of the weekend. I would recommend them to anyone.”
Midtown pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was my first time using Connor to watch my 1-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Hudson, and she was absolutely wonderful! She sent frequent updates throughout the day, and it was clear she treated him like her own. They had such a great time together that he came home visibly happy and content. I’ll definitely be booking her again!
Raphael did a wonderful job of watching my senior dog Fermi when I had to leave on a last minute work trip. He is great with dogs and Fermi was very happy and affectionate with him from the initial meeting. I really appreciated that he was very communicative with regular updates and lots of pictures, and he also left the apartment in immaculate condition. I would definitely ask Raphael to house sit again next time I am out of town and highly recommend him!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Stars! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Rhiannon! I was traveling to Las Vegas for a weekend of family events and a Vegas Golden Knights game, and I needed a sitter for my Maltese puppy, Luxe, during the events. As any pet parent knows, finding someone you can truly trust is so important, so I spent a lot of time searching for the right fit. From our very first interaction, Rhiannon stood out. She was responsive, professional, and quick to answer every question I had, which immediately gave me peace of mind. Once Luxe was in her care, she exceeded every expectation. She treated him like family, and it was obvious from the photos and updates that he absolutely adored her. Throughout the weekend, she kept me informed with regular pictures and updates, allowing me to fully enjoy my time knowing he was happy, safe, and well cared for. What impressed me most was the genuine care she showed. Luxe wasn't just being watched, he was being loved and cared for. Trust is everything when it comes to your pets, and Rhiannon earned mine completely. If you're looking for someone dependable, communicative, and trustworthy, I wholeheartedly recommend her. I would absolutely book with her again and am so grateful I found her. Thank you, Rhiannon, for taking such amazing care of Luxe!
Lisa was fantastic with Laila!!! She was very communicative throughout the stay. She sent pictures and updates daily. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that Laila was well taken care of. Additionally, Laila is a bit older and has some minor medical issues. Lisa was very attentive and empathetic to Laila's needs and schedule. I will 100% without a doubt ask Lisa to watch Laila again. Highly recommend her for quality pet care!!!
Pedro is amazing. We have two senior golden retrievers who are not as mobile, and Pedro did a great job taking care of them as well as our apartment! He was extremely communicative, took many photos and videos, followed our instructions on how to take care of our senior dogs, checked in with us often. Would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a responsible person to help caring for their dogs!!
May is terrific! I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the very beginning, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals and treats them as if they were her own. She is dependable, responsible, attentive, and incredibly caring, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. We especially appreciated the regular updates, photos, and thoughtful communication, which allowed us to enjoy our time away without worrying. It was obvious that our dog, Dante, received plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and individualized May is everything you could hope for in a pet sitter. We would gladly use her services again and recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for outstanding care for their pets.
Danny was wonderful! He stayed at our place for 3 nights and watched two of my elderly (12-13 yo) little 9 lbs dogs. He was extremely professional and responsible - prompt with replies, followed up politely when I failed to respond in a timely fashion, and left the house in very good order. I highly recommend Danny and would absolutely seek him out again.
