“CK was great with my dog and cat, and very communicative! He was even able to come back and check on the animals later than planned when we were delayed coming home. Would definitely book again!”
“We’ve used Sydney as a pet sitter 3 times now. She’s been wonderful every time. She takes great care of our pets and home. She provides excellent updates throughout our trip. She is great at what she does and I look forward to booking her again for future trips!”
“Brooke was a wonderful sitter! They came by a few weeks in advance to meet Bruno. It really helped because I couldn’t be home when they arrived but they knew their way around the house and Bruno was excited to see them! Brooke shared tons of photos and updates and communication was great. They also made sure the house was cleaned and in great shape for when I got home. We hope to work with Brooke again!”
“Maura was great- very communicative and sent lots of photos of my dog, Bentley which I appreciated it! I look forward to working with Maura more in the future!”
About: I’ve spent the last 10 years caring for dogs of all kinds, including reactive pups and those needing medication. I truly love animals and take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs. Working from home allows me to be flexible and fully present—your pet gets real attention, not just a quick visit. I work from home so I have to ability to step away to care for people’s pets. I am also available most days and times It’s more than just walking dogs or making sure they have food and water. I want to make sure they know they are cared for emotionally as well and get some energy out by playing and interacting
“Heather was amazing with my two furry babies. They settled right in and took to her right away. When I got home I could tell not only were they taken care of but my home was as well. She sent multiple pictures at the start of every day with an update on the day previously. My dogs were very happy and comfortable as was I. I am always a nervous wreck leaving my babies but Heather made me feel comfortable. We will definitely be booking with Heather in the future again. Thank you for everything Heather and for treating my dogs like your own. Ollie and Olive miss you already & are looking forward to their next stay with you.”
“She is amazing!!! She took care of our cat and dog and also was an amazing house guest, left everything clean and tidy and overall it was a wonderful experience. I will be booking with her again and would recommend her to anyone!”
About: I've cared for various kinds of pets over my whole life and at one point was able to become an AKC trained dog trainer! I've since changed jobs to a patient sitter at a nearby hospital and miss the new animals being in my life. I'd love to get a chance to meet your pets and help care for them! I work 3 inconsistent days from either 630am-pm or 630pm-am throughout the week but can make changes as needed to work up to 3 days a week for a client outside of that! I feel that all pets have a wide range of personalities and needs but the important thing is to work with them to achieve their physical and emotional needs! I have 2 cats with vastly different attitudes and I make sure to tailor my care for them in specific ways like being a safety person for my cat while she's eating or training my partners cat to ask for attention and treats more politely. When it comes to dogs I have a training in positive reinforcement and dog behaviors and will try to engage with breed specific enrichment on top of whatever schedule the pet parents have for their dog.
“I was super nervous about leaving my six month old puppy with a dog sitter, but i’m so glad I found Gianna. She was clear, flexible, and just absolutely amazing overall. I had a flight cancellation and she took the time changes with grace. Also, I loved that she sent me multiple photos/videos of my pup every day. If I ever need to use a dog sitter again I will be sure to request Gianna first!”
“Chloe took care of my cat in my house for 3 days and was very accommodating and attentive, providing daily updates and pictures and leaving everything neat and tidy for my return. I had peace of mind from the start knowing Chloe was going to housesit my boy!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 11 years old. I have two dogs of my own and have grown up around a lot of animals. I have lots of experience cat-sitting and dog-sitting/walking for neighbors and family members throughout the years. I'm working full-time but am working remotely from home and have a flexible schedule. I'm available for all of your pet related needs during lunchtime or after-work hours on weekdays. I will do my best to make sure that your pet is comfortable and happy at your home when I come in to visit/walk them. Refreshing the food, water, and anything else as needed.
About: I have been housesitting and taking care of dogs and cats since high school. Whether it be going for walks or just cuddling with them in the house I have had experience in all areas. I have an 85 pound 1 year old dog of my own so I have experience with larger dogs in addition to smaller dogs. I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your animals or take them on walks whatever is needed. I will make sure to keep your pets safe just as I would my own dog. I will keep them safe whether it be in your yard, in the house, or on a leash.
“Sam did an amazing job watching our two dogs while we were out of town. He was communicative and went above and beyond when taking care of the house as well. With a puppy and a German Shepherd, they are quite a handful so I have no qualms in recommending Sam for any pup sitting. :-)”
“Mick was great! Very friendly and responsive, and was happy to work with our pets’ quirks. I also made a mistake in the scheduling and needed an extra day of care last minute and Mick was super gracious and accommodating. Will definitely be reaching out again in the future!”
“Natalie took great care of our dog Lottie while we were out of town. Lottie can be nervous around new people, but she warmed up quickly to Natalie, who was so sweet and gentle with her. Natalie sent detailed updates and photos and took great care of Lottie and our house. And she was super flexible and accommodating when our schedule changed a little at the last minute. We will definitely book with her again, and highly recommend her!”
“Emma was there to help when I needed someone on short notice, and more importantly, she's great with Zero! A video of him happily playing fetch was the best part of my time away, and I can't thank Emma enough for thinking to send it to me!”

“Sydney is amazing! My dogs are like my children, and I don’t trust their care to just anyone. I have had Sydney watch my pets on multiple occasions and she has proven to be reliable, caring, professional, and overall does an incredible job. She treats my dogs like they are her own. She makes sure they get plenty of exercise, treats, and love while I am away. Sydney also communicates very well and always sends me photos and messages to update me on how they are doing. I highly recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a dog walker or pet sitter.”

Morningside pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had an amazing experience with our cat sitter! She was incredibly thorough, kept everything in perfect order, and went above and beyond to make sure our cats were happy and comfortable while we were away. She sent tons of adorable pictures and detailed updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. We truly can’t say enough good things about her—we’re so grateful to have found someone so reliable and caring. We can’t wait to use her again!
Brooke was INCREDIBLE. We left our slightly older, slightly anxious dog in Brooke's care for over a week and came back to a happy, well cared for pup. Brooke was communicative, sent great photos, and was generally very sweet and professional. I would definitely book with her again.
Alex is quite possibly the most attentive cat sitter we've ever had (and we've had a ton). The kitties love him and just behave normally when he's around. He sends tons of updates and pics throughout the day (which we always request but sitters rarely ever actually do this!). We have older cats that have quite the eating schedule and Alex is always totally on it. He's got a perfect cat demeanor: quiet and slow moving and deliberate. It makes us all feel so comfortable! He's our top call for a sitter and has been for quite a while. We'll keep using Alex for our cat-sitting needs as much as we can!
Trai was just awesome. We booked him for a week long vacation with our giant breed dog and he was great. The house was cleaned up, he was always super easy to communicate with, and even sent this crazy dog mom pictures! He’s just so nice and easy to work with. I can’t say enough about him! I worry he’ll be too booked when I need him again because he is one of the best!
Julia was the best cat-sitter we could have imagined! Our cat is rather shy with new people, but she snuggled up to Julia for pets right on the first day. Julia house-sitted our place while we were on a longer trip, and it was great to see that our cat enjoyed her time without us and was not stressed at all when we came back. I warmly recommend Julia and would have her take care of our cat any time again.
On our first meeting, she listened and took notes, and asked excellent follow up questions. Arya gave dedicated care to our anxious dog in our home while we were away. She is patient, kind, thoughtful, and an excellent communicator. She gave us regular updates and pictures that we valued and appreciated. We will hire her again.
Caitlyn was amazing! Pet-sat at our house for 6 days and took great care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats. Loved getting daily updates with photos. I work from home so am usually home with my 4 fur babies 24/7 and being away from them is stressful for me. They all looked so happy and content in the photos and I could tell they were well taken care of when we got home. 5 stars all around, highly recommend and will definitely hire Caitlyn again!
Shannon took such great care of our pets and our home! We couldn't ask for more. She was prompt with everything they needed, sent lots of pictures and updates and even alerted us to a potential eye problem one of our cats was experiencing. Everyone seemed happy and well cared for with her. We will definitely be utilizing Shannon again for our pet sitting needs!
Ellie stayed at our place for 3 weeks while we were in the UK. She was an exceptional sitter and house guest. Being over seas it was comforting to know our slightly older dogs were in great hands! Her updates were helpful and the house was in great shape when we got back. We would definitely book Ellie again!
