About: I’m currently a mom to a 5 year old chiweenie who I’ve raised since he was 3 months old :) additionally, I’ve fostered dogs of all kinds and have become great at adapting to each dog’s individual needs. From puppies to seniors to special needs dogs, I’ve cared for them all. I am very flexible Friday through Monday. I work from home Mondays and Fridays, and I am home on most weekends and would be happy to care for your pup. My apartment is very safe and generally “proofed” for dogs. I have a crate for my own dog and am happy to crate your dog if needed.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong passion for animal care, starting when I was just 12 years old. Since then, I've dedicated countless hours to understanding and caring for animals of all kinds. As a proud owner of a shelter rescue pitbull mix, I've learned firsthand the importance of patience, compassion, and tailored care. I've invested time and resources into my own dog's enrichment and socialization, and I'm confident in my ability to provide the same level of love and attention to your furry friend. Whether you're looking for a trusted companion for your pet or just need someone to give them extra TLC, I'm here to provide top-notch care and make your pet feel like part of the family. As a hybrid tech sales employee, my schedule can get busy, but caring for pets is a top priority for me. I'm available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 4PM, which fits perfectly with my work schedule. I'm also flexible and willing to adjust my schedule as needed to ensure that your dog receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while in my care. Whether that means taking them on a longer walk or playing an extra game of fetch, I'm committed to making sure your dog feels loved and entertained. When boarded with me, your dog is welcome to free roam and enjoy all the comforts of home, including lounging on the couch. My home is just a 5-minute walk from a park, so we can easily get in some exercise and fresh air. Your pup will also get to meet Cozy, my friendly 6-year-old pitbull mix, who's always excited to make new furry friends. Cozy loves to play and socialize, and I'm confident she'll help your dog feel right at home. Whether in my care or yours, I tailor my services to meet your dog's individual needs and ensure they receive the love, attention, and exercise they deserve.

“Neil C is a very nice person who quite evidently cares deeply about dogs. He was very communicative, punctual and honest. We have a big dog, who can be quite single minded, but Neil took her in his stride. Thank you Neil, for your patience and time.”

“Denise is great! She was very patient with my very shy cat, and had him chasing toys and purring in no time! She was very responsive to questions and sent me lots of great pictures.”

“I cannot recommend Mirin highly enough! She went above and beyond in caring for my two dogs, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such great hands. After every walk, she provided incredibly detailed reports along with lots of photos, which truly made my day and reassured me that my dogs were happy, safe, and well cared for. It’s clear that Mirin genuinely loves what she does! She treated my dogs with so much attention, patience, and kindness. She didn’t just “walk” them; she made sure they were engaged, comfortable, and enjoying themselves. If you’re looking for someone reliable, communicative, and truly exceptional with animals, Mirin is the one. I’m so grateful to have found her and will absolutely continue booking with her!”

“"We cannot say enough good things about Lainey! She has been an absolute miracle for Zuse. Not only is she wonderful with him, but her communication is top-notch—we always know exactly how his walks are going. She has been incredibly helpful by stepping in on very short notice, which has been a lifesaver for our family. We love her, Zuse loves her, and we highly recommend her to anyone. You and your fur babies will be in great hands!"”

About: I've been around dogs since I was a toddler. Growing up with them has given me good experiences. When knowing behavioral signals like if they are uncomfortable. I'm good at keeping dogs well entertained and having fun. I've also had experience with senior dogs and as well as cats. I also have got to witness dog training from puppies to adult dogs because of my mother. I am open everyday Monday- Sunday if you don't have time to walk or feed your pet no problem I'm there! Always glad to help. I live in a building with a dog park close by so they will spend a lot of their time at the park. I have a puppy who loves new friends so they will have a friend to play with. They will have plenty of room to run and play and burn off energy. As for at the clients home, I will find a nearby park if its not raining and before heading home and having many pets and snuggles and playing in the house

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, including senior dogs with unique needs. I cared for my own dog for 17 years until he passed in 2024, which gave me valuable experience with daily care routines, mobility support, medication awareness, patience, and recognizing changes in behavior or health. Caring for a senior dog taught me the importance of consistency, gentle attention, and creating a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand how important it is to treat every pet with the same care, patience, and attention I would want for my own. In addition, I regularly support a friend by feeding, walking, and caring for his dog when he is working late or out of town. This has given me ongoing experience with leash walking, feeding schedules, and making sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I am reliable, attentive, and committed to following each dog’s specific needs and instructions to provide the best possible care. I work a hybrid schedule, which allows me to consistently build pet care into my week and provide dependable attention. On in-office days, I make sure pets are cared for before and after work with reliable morning and evening walks or drop-ins before and after work. On remote days, I have more flexibility for midday walks, check-ins, and companionship. I prioritize making sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and on a steady routine, and I plan my schedule around their needs so they receive consistent, attentive care without feeling rushed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, medication (if needed), and any specific routines or preferences. I aim to keep pets in their normal routine as much as possible so they feel calm, secure, and comfortable in their environment. For dogs, I ensure safe leash handling, stay alert on walks, and choose appropriate routes based on their energy and needs. For cats, I provide gentle care, clean litter boxes, and give them space and attention based on their personality. I treat every home with respect and make sure pets are never left without proper care during their scheduled visits.

“Kristina was great. She arrived at a consistent time every day and always and photos. It was great to be able to rely on her. Great communication.”

About: (PLEASE KEEP READING FOR LATENESS INFO AND PRICING). Hello, everyone! I am a college student who has more than 10 years of personal experience with a variety of dogs. I've raised and taken care of Rottweilers, Pitbulls, Dalmatians and Labradors in the past and currently own a 9 year old Labrador/Pitbull mix and 2 Rottweiles. I thoroughly enjoy taking care of dogs on my free time as I work out with my own. There's a big park with a dog run right next to me so your baby will always be taken care of and I also keep an AC in the living room for the hotter days. In addition to that, I have worked with dogs with separation anxiety and am very aware of the struggles dealing with that so I always make sure when I take a Rover booking, that the dog is never alone in the house. Furthermore, I have no issues sending pictures and videos of your baby as we all would like to know how our babies are doing when we are not with them. Thank you so much for taking a look at my services and feel free to book me up! FYI, I am very comfortable and very good with big and strong doggos :-). I take pleasure in giving your baby one on one time withNL NO OTHER DOGS at the same time as yours so that they can fully enjoy their time I go to school online so I am able to be with pets 24/7. I also make sure that pets do not stay alone ever while in my care. I do ask however, for clients to stick to their drop-off and pick-up times to respect my time as I respect theirs and their pets', and to avoid any late fees or extra charges.

Though my dog is friendly, I have a dog cage where my dog sleeps and which separates my own from other owner's pets for safety.

“Alice & Ethan have helped take care of my cat, Lucy, while I've been away for work on two occasions now. They're very responsive to messages, provide detailed Rover cards, and were super flexible when I had to travel last-minute. I would definitely recommend their services to others looking for reliable catsitters!”

“Renata and Marina are wonderful dog walkers! They are both friendly, punctual, and communicate clearly throughout. Most importantly, Willow, my Great Pyrenees mix, absolutely loves them. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in great hands and will happily book them again.”

About: We've cared for dogs of all ages, including senior pets and energetic puppies. We are patient, reliable, and treat every pet like family. We have experience with medication administration, basic training, and understanding different temperaments. Your pet's comfort and safety are our top priorities. Pet care fits perfectly into our routine since we both work part-time and are home often. This allows us to provide consistent attention, timely walks, playtime, and lots of love throughout the day. We enjoy being active, so we’re always up for fetch, long walks, or just snuggling on the couch. Our flexible schedules also allow us to accommodate last-minute bookings or special care needs. Safety and trust are our top priorities. At our home, pets enjoy a fully fenced-in yard with plenty of grassy space to play and explore safely. We have one friendly Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who loves making new furry friends and is gentle and playful. We always take time to understand each pet’s needs and routines.

“Cristin has taken care of my kitty cat twice now and done an excellent job both times. Highly recommended, gets along great with cats and understands them, easy to work with and schedule with especially if you’re in the downtown Cleveland area. 5/5 stars!”

Jonathan S.

“William was so caring and loving with our 3yo cat. He was also an ace at communicating and making sure we were comfortable. He was able to get amazing pictures and even get a knot in our kitties fur without us even asking. 5 stars across the board!”

About: I am a passionate animal lover and an experienced pet owner, having owned several cats and dogs over the past 17 years. I worked as an experienced dog walker and boarder in Boston before moving to NYC. I always ensure the animal is happy, healthy, and safe. Your dog and I will go on walks/jogs, to the park, we will play and hangout, and of course, have fun! I am very easy going, fun, and reliable. Excited to meet your pup or cat! I work a hybrid job but it’s flexible. I’m unable to do drop ins on weekdays before 3pm. Weekends all day are preferred for sitting I respect all the homes I visit and sit at. I ensure the environment is safe, clean and engaging for your pet/s. I can easily crate dogs if needed

About: I enjoy leading an active lifestyle, being outdoors and in nature. In fact, that's why dogs have 4 legs-so they can experience more of the benefits of walking! My goal is to care for your dog as if my own child and to provide a SAFE time for play, so you have peace of mind. Also, I'm currently learning a lot about dog care & behavior from YouTube University 😄 It's rewarding to be responsible for taking care of someone's loved one-even for a nice short walk. Being around dogs is therapy and makes me feel like a playful kid all over again 💩 I'm always down to set up a meet & greet so we can chat about hobbies, food and more doggy details. Currently, I have a flexible schedule and always make time for going on walks, preferably afternoon and evenings. 👉🏻Tips for your dog that keeps pulling 🐕‍🦺 🐾 When the dog is walking in front it's the one in charge, that's no good 🐾 You want a loose leash dog at your side 🐾 Be aware of your BL. Don't tense up, be calm with relaxed shoulders 🐾 Short sideways tug of leash, if you want to change directions and take the lead 🐾 Use a firm 'NO', don't worry it's healthy Remember, practice and patience are 🗝️ I want to advocate for dogs because it's our public doodoo. It's meaningful for me to help protect our pets as this gives me a sense of pride and joy.

“Brandon and his husband were absolutely amazing! I had to leave unexpectedly out of state and they were so sweet and to take care of my pup/cat on short notice. On top of that Brandon would always send me updates and even took care of them when I was delayed in making it home. Simply the best! 10/10 highly recommend!”
