This was my first time using Rover and I was worried about how it would go, but I'm so glad I gave it a try and found Xinyu! She is friendly, positive, and considerate, and really went above what was asked (thank you for taking my packages inside for me..!). Xinyu was diligent with the schedule and followed care instructions to the letter. I would definitely book her again next time I'm out of town. 🖤🐈‍⬛

About: Growing up, I lived in the forest so I have taken care of dogs, puppy litters, cats, ducks, chickens, turtles, and fish! I love animals and am excited to take care of yours. I am usually available on short notice and have no problem dog sitting in your home for as long as you need! I have worked for Rover for 5 years in Arizona and am expanding my services to NYC. I work entirely remotely, so I have lots of time to play with your animals! I'm available 7 days a week all throughout the NYC. The first rule is to always listen to the owner and their preferences for their animal. I make sure that the animals have frequent play time, while also strictly following their bathroom and eating schedules.

Natalia was great and I felt like I could really trust her to take good care of my cat! I’ve never hired a cat sitter before so I was really nervous but it ended up being a great experience. 10/10 would recommend- thank you Natalia!!

Morgan was an absolute star when it came to taking care of my senior cat with a variety of health issues that required daily medication. She was patient, loving, kind and most importantly was reliable in my absence. Really appreciated her being able to provide daily updates during drop ins! Can’t recommend her enough and will be rebooking her in the future for sure!

This is my third time using Jessie and I’ll always use her (if she’s not booked up!). She is very professional and, as someone who gets a lot of anxiety leaving her precious baby, I feel totally safe and comfortable knowing she’s in Jessie’s capable hands. Everyday I’m away, I look forward to Jessie’s report cards and love seeing the great photos she takes of my cat. I would recommend her highly! Thank you, Jessie!

About: I've been passionate about animals my entire life, growing up with pets that adored me just as much as I adored them. My journey as a pet caregiver began in my early twenties when one of my responsibilities was daily walking my boss's dogs. These dogs were of different sizes and personalities, so I had to find an individual approach to each of them, which I found myself enjoying a lot. At that time, while focused on establishing my career as a web developer, I couldn’t imagine that taking care of other people's pets would become such a significant part of my life. After meeting my wife, our shared love for animals brought us even closer. After moving to New York in 2016, we missed having pets around. We started by taking care of our friends' and coworkers' dogs during their travels, both as a favor and to enjoy some pet time ourselves. This experience inspired us to take our pet care services to the next level. For the past few years, while balancing our day jobs from home, we've been dedicated to providing top-notch pet care services, making sure every pet we look after feels loved and well-cared for. Whether it’s just one walk, a couple of drop-in visits over the weekend or multiple weeks of pet sitting, we tailor our approach to each pet’s comfort level and preferences. I work from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. This allows me to be available for check-ins, walks, and playtime whenever needed. We are insured and Pet First Aid and CPR certified, giving pet parents peace of mind knowing their fur babies are in safe, capable hands. We understand how difficult it can be to leave your four-legged family member with someone else, which is why we make sure to constantly send photos and videos to keep you updated and give you peace of mind.

I rarely feel comfortable leaving my pets, and Kathy certainly took all of the stress away. She is very attentive and treated my fur-babies as if they were her own. I thoroughly enjoyed her photo updates and daily messages about how everything was going, and was she was also kind enough to bring our packages inside while we were away. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

Absolutely fabulous! I cannot say enough good things about Rosanna. My cats are very shy with new people and prefer to hide. But within one day of Rosanna visiting, they were literally eating out of the palm of her hand! She went about and beyond in the care of our cats and we will definitely be hiring her again.

About: Hi! I’m John Scott Roberts, a 25 year old animal lover based in the Murray Hill/ Kips Bay area. I grew up with dogs and cats have been pet sitting for family and friends for the past six years. I have experience with puppies and kittens, senior pets, and reactive dogs. I recently moved to the area and am hoping to pet sit part-time. My schedule is very flexible right now while I am applying to law school. I don’t have pets of my own currently but my apartment allows pets below 60lbs. For pets larger than that, I am more than happy to accommodate in your home. I have experience with high energy dogs and will be able to walk and crate dogs regardless of size or energy level.

Chloe is clearly very experienced working with animals. She watched our cat for 2 weeks and gained the cat’s trust very quickly. It gave us peace of mind while we were away knowing our pet was in caring hands. Chloe provided great updates and photos while also being very responsive.
