Jorge was fantastic. We met before the stay to talk through what the cats needed and I was immediately happy that he was looking after our cats. They took to him straight away. I received pictures of the cats and in depth reports about how they were doing and it put my mind at ease that they were being well taken care of. I will definitely be using Jorge next time I need a sitter.

Took such great care of our 1 year old husky. She was sweet and very communicative. This is my 3rd rover experience and Jennifer has made it a fantastic experience.

About: During the 20 years of experience I have gained as a pet sitter, I have become someone who goes above and beyond what an average sitter will do. I adhere to specific guidelines set by the owner so that their pet receives the exact type of care they are requesting. I have experience with senior animals as well. I have administered prescription medications as needed and I am very timely. To choose me is to choose the "best of the best" in what you'll be looking for in a animal care provider! I am a dedicated pet sitter. I have open availability and I am very accommodating. Being able to provide these types of services for pet owners has become a passion of mine since my youth. I will be able to commit to my bookings and provide top tier animal care services to all who choose to request me. The animals I have cared for are always within my view. I follow the pet owners specific instructions for care so that they have peace of mind knowing their pet is cared for. I do my best to ensure that the pets have minimal disruption to their daily routine.

About: Hello! I’ve been in the pet care industry for 3 years professionally, and almost my whole life personally through friends and family. I’m an animal lover, and I’m ready to meet some new friends! I used to service dogs in East Midtown and have experience with many breeds and temperaments. I also own cats and have worked professionally as a cat sitter in Chelsea/Downtown. I recently moved to the area and can offer walks, sittings, and boarding. We can set up a free meet and greet to see how we can work together to help your companion thrive. I work 10am through 6pm Monday-Friday for walks, extra charge for anything outside of that time frame and weekends/holidays. Inquire about sittings/boardings. Safety is always my priority when it comes to any sort of service. I follow any given instructions and communicate with the parents if I have any questions/concerns. I’m also CPR certified.

Kristine did a wonderful spectacular job. I was super nervous and anxious about leaving my cat alone, considering someone’s always home at the end of the day and this was the longest time I was gonna be away from home. She was wonderful with the updates. She was always on time. She was always very detailed, with how everything was going on with his dry food, wet food, water fountain, litter box. And the photos were to die for! For each drop-in, I was getting anywhere from 5 to 8 photos of my kitty!!!!

About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was in middle school. When I lived in Brooklyn, I was a full time dog walker and boarded when clients needed last minute care. I have 2 rescue dogs named Bobo and Belle and also a rescue cat named Lenny. Since I am a stay at home parent to a child in school, I am available all week with little notice and most weekends with advance notice My pets enjoy a fenced in yard on our lot which is a third acre and has plenty of space for them to play and run

Karen is the absolute best. She has been looking after my two cats for a couple of years now. She goes above and beyond every time. My cats both love her - even the super skittish one who doesn’t trust many people. I definitely recommend Karen. She is professional, friendly, and trustworthy. We are lucky to have found her.

About: I’ve had welcomed my first pet ever when I was 10 years old , then in 2012 I’ve have welcome another fur baby to the family . Being around my own personal pets made me love doing dog sitting a lot more so starting in 2013 I’ve decided to volunteer and also become employed with the services of onboarding , dog walking , etc . I love doing my job when it comes to pets because I think of them as my own. I am currently working Monday - Friday but my schedule is also very flexible. I am free on the weekends if services are needed as well. When caring for your pets in your home or my home they are well taken care of between any medications, a routine that they follow I will make sure that while your away they will be left in great hands .

About: I originally started work at a dog daycare and transitioned to pet-care in 2023. I have two cats of my own; Lizzy and Thomas. Upon request, I can absolutely water plants and check mail if you need the extra help. I will jog with your dog! I'm able to do over-night stays and drop-ins. On my spare time, I enjoy exercising and cooking. My favorite things to make are chili and chocolate chip cookies! I lock doors and if I’m pet sitting, I take direct instructions from the owner. If I’m dog sitting- I always have double the amount of poop bags. My cell phone is always with me.

Colleen is simply the best!! She took care of my cat for 5 days while I was out of state. She was very communicative and let me know each time when she arrived. She also provided a little note and photos each visit which I truly appreciate. I felt so relieved knowing my cat was happy and doing okay! I highly recommend Colleen and I will definitely be using her again in the future.

Kameryn is awesome!! She is giving me peace of mind, knowing that someone trustworthy and caring is spending time with my dogs when I’m at work. You can tell she’s an animal lover and my dogs took to her right away. I’ve only just begun working with her, but I’m very happy and confident with my decision to choose her. My dogs and I look forward to her being their sitter for as long as possible, because once you find someone good that you know you can trust your animals with, you want to hold onto them. Kameryn is a great choice and I highly recommend her!! Shannon D.

Kristine has taken care of Meatball since 2023. She takes great care of my very clingy cat and makes this codependent cat mom feel much less anxious knowing he’s in good hands when I’m away. My mom has had health issues this year, and I’ve had to travel upstate often to help her. Kristine always does her best to accommodate my sometimes last-minute requests, which I truly appreciate.
