“Jeff was absolutely fantastic! He kept us up to date on Gretta in a timely manner. I was a nervous Nellie leaving her overnight as she hasn’t been away from us much in her 11 years. Look no further for the most excellent dog sitter. Thanks, Jeff!”


“Zeus and Thor had an amazing time with Lieb! Thor loved hanging out with doggy friends by the pool. Lieb noticed Zeus’ introverted ways, so he let him snooze inside the house while the other dogs were outside. Lieb was also flexible with our return time (thank you so much for that). We will be back!”


“Dew was wonderful! Our sweet girl can be nervous and uneasy in new situations and Dew was endlessly patient and warm putting her at ease while she was staying with her. Dew sent pictures adn updates to keep us in the loop and was super quick in responding to any questions we had! I would absolutely recommend her and hope to have her pet sit Sankaty for us again!”


“Lyanne is an experienced dog sitter. I informed her my senior dog had arthritis and she was already knowledgeable on how to handle him gently. My dog is 14 years old and needed daily medication. She made sure to remember the time that he needed to receive it. She also sent me pics and videos as updates. I would recommend Lyanne for your future dog sitting needs.”


“Terrance is definitely someone you can leave you dog with and won't have to worry about anything. He has prior experience with dealing with them, his dogs are friendly and calm. My dog isn't used to interacting with other dogs, but with Terrance and his dogs, Leo was able fit right into the pack. I will definitely book with Terrance again.”


“Desi had a wonderful time with Erika. Desi is very shy at first but she warmed up to Erika quickly. The feeling was apparently mutual as she told me Desi would be welcome any time. It's such a comfort to know your dog is being well cared for when your gone.”


“Jadyn was so so great with my girls! this was a last-minute request and she helped us out. No problem and I got two very happy very tired puppies when I picked them up, could not recommend her more for any of your doggy daycare needs.”


“Cherissa was an amazing host. I had a cancellation last minute with a sitter due to an emergency and she was available and so easy to work with. She shared pictures and updates of our puppy multiple times throughout the day of what my fur baby was doing. I will definitely be booking with Cherissa again.”


“Brittany was wonderful with Cody. He is not used to be separated from us so we knew that he would be a challenge. I am happy with the treatment that Cody received and if the occasion occurs we will book with Brittany again.”


“Barbara took wonderful care of Bernie during our long trip. She stayed in touch via photos and videos and showed us that he was well taken care of and was having a good time at her home. I would highly recommend her.”


“I couldn't have ask for a better dog sitter! Candace is incredibly reliable, caring, and attentive to every detail of my dog’s needs. From regular walks to cuddle time and updates with photos, she goes above and beyond to make sure my puppy feels safe, loved, and happy while we're away. It's such a relief to know my dog was in such compassionate and capable hands. I highly recommend Candace to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving caregiver for their furry family member!”


About: Hi. My name is Kiki and I love dogs!! I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I was a manager at a cage-free dog daycare for 5 years, where I handled everything from group play supervision to administering medications and managing daily care routines. I also volunteered for 3 years at Second Chance Dog Rescue, helping with socialization, walking, and basic training. In addition, I’ve provided trusted pet sitting services in Peekskill, NY for 5 years until the family relocated. I’m trained in pet CPR, comfortable administering all types of medications, and have a dog of my own—so I truly understand how important it is to find someone reliable and compassionate to care for your pets. I have a car, am highly dependable, and treat every animal as if they were my own. Although I work full-time and attend school, I have large daily time blocks available between commitments, which I dedicate to pet sitting, walking, and drop-in visits I care for every pet like my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while following their regular routine, my skills are administering medications, and giving personalized attention. Every pet has a specific personality so I try to respect that much like people.

“Bobby was fantastic with our dog Andy, giving him lots of attention and playtime. He was very diligent at giving updates and sharing photos throughout the stay. Andy loved the walks in the woods next to the house. He was very well cared for!”


“Debbie was wonderful with my 2 girls! They loved her, her home and their new friends. I would highly recommend Debbie. Planning my next trip without anxiety knowing my girls will be with Debbie again.”

Nelsonville dog parents share their Rover experiences
Pluto is not the easiest dog, and we're very happy that it worked out so well for his stay at Bobby's. Pluto and Luna got along very well. Pluto stayed for 6 days and has found a welcoming home away from home. We will be happy and worry-free to have Pluto stay at Bobby's again.

Bobby was excellent! He and Ally took great care of Morpheus and were very kind and responsible throughout the whole process. They were very accommodating to a couple special requests for Morpheus (medication he takes and setting him up when he’s left alone to ease his anxiety) The regular updates, photos and videos were greatly appreciated too. I would definitely go to them again the next time I need care for Morph!
