House Sitting in New Brighton, Staten Island, NY

“This was my second time booking Josefa for housesitting for 4 nights. I’m so grateful to have found her on Rover, she is detail oriented and goes absolutely above and beyond for my dog. She truly treats him as if he were her own, and buys him little goodies too. Super respectful of the home and honestly leaves it cleaner than before. My slightly reactive/anxious dog can be very particular as well and she handles him great with lots of patience. Highest of recommendations and I can’t thank her enough.”

“5 stars for Erin! I was nervous using Rover for the first time to find a sitter for my senior dog. Erin immediately put me at ease. She’s warm, calm, and competent. She took great care of Archie and was super understanding when he had tummy issues. Erin is also a fantastic communicator, keeping me updated every step of the way. I appreciated her care so much. Would absolutely recommend.”

“Dinasty is the greatest puppy sitter on the planet. It’s not even a competition! We have a high-energy Aussie with separation anxiety who most people find stressful. But every picture of him from Dinasty melted my heart because he had THE biggest happy smile. She is attentive, caring, clean, compassionate, and fun for your furry friend! She even left a cute Polaroid of him for us to enjoy. Thanks for being so kind, Dinasty, we can’t wait to have you keep Cohen again!”

“Fernando was great with cooper, he really helped give us peace of mind during our wedding day that our boy was in good hands and getting all the love and attention he was missing.”

“Another wonderful house sitting experience with Jaidi! We always appreciate the care and attention that Jaidi shows for our pup and our home.”

“Elias is the best! He took amazing care of our 60lb poodle mix while we were out of town for the weekend. He updated us multiple times a day with a ton of pictures and feedback and handled our pups reactivity like a champ. From both the pictures Elias sent, along with his demeanor when we got home, it was clear Knox had a great time with Elias.”

“Isabelle was great. She took care of Tilly in our home while we were out for the afternoon. Tilly is a bit timid but warmed up quickly. Would definitely book again with Isabelle.”

About: HI! Thanks for considering me to take care of your pet while you're away. I've always loved animals and have been lucky enough to care for many in my adult life. I'm returning to the platform after a 3 year hiatus after the recent loss of my cat. I have an abundance of love remaining and would love to direct it to as many pets as possible. A few details before booking - I am an MTA commuter, so there is only so far I can go at the moment. - I work in-office Monday thru Wednesday and remotely Thursday thru Saturday. I'm pretty flexible, but for in office days walks and drop-in visits would be early mornings and after 5pm. - Due to my shared living space, I am unable to offer boarding at the moment. - Please share as many details as possible about your pet! I want them to feel as happy and comfortable as I am able to make them while you're away Other than that, we can iron out any details once a request is sent! I look forward to meeting you and your furry loved ones :) I currently work 9 am - 5pm in office Mondays thru Wednesday and remotely the remainder of the week. I am allowed flexibility at my job so if needed I can make adjustment, but I need at least 2 weeks notice to move stuff around. I am very respectful of my clients' homes and abide by the standards and protocols they set. I want to make their pet as happy and comfy while they're away.

“Jennifer did a fantastic job looking after our 2 dogs for a few days. She took excellent care of them and was very communicative, sending us lots of updates and photos throughout her stay. And she went the extra mile to keep our home tidy during her stay. We are thrilled to have found her and will definitely book her again.”

About: I have 5 years of hands-on experience as a veterinary assistant in an animal hospital, caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. From energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets with special needs, I’m confident handling a wide range of personalities and medical needs. I’m passionate about providing safe, loving, and attentive care, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own! I currently attend college Monday-Thursday during short morning or afternoon hours; typically in class between 8am-12pm or 2pm-6pm. I also work overnights as needed on Fridays and Saturdays (3 shifts a month). When caring for pets in your home, I follow their routine exactly to keep them comfortable and stress free. I make sure they’re safe, well-fed, and get plenty of attention, playtime, and love: just like if you were there.

“Eliza was a wonderful dog sitter and I was so pleased with how well she took care of my little pup while I was away. She made sure my dog was fed and put to sleep for bed time. I definitely recommend Eliza for any of your pet care taking needs.”

About: I take my dog to the Tompkin square park dog run 3 times a day. I've become familiar with everyone who goes there. I used to like 1 block away from the dog run. I became very good at training dogs in a very short period of time. Since I go to the dog run so often, I became very comfortable in front of dogs who are stranger to me. I'm sure if I start doing dog sitting. I will run into the same dogs that I used to run into at Thompkin square park in East village. Their owners love me too because I go there all the time. I work near 23st now. And my work is very still, meaning sitting down. I would often go on long bike rides or walks in Manhattan right after my work. And I thought since I'm so good with dogs I should make money from it. I will treat them as if they are my own pets. I will take the client's request to great considerations. I love dog walking so there should be no problem with going out with me. Definitely handling client home in a professional manner and prioritizing walking their dogs instead of petting them or playing with them first.

“Zoe is an absolute rockstar dog walker. My dog LOVES her, and stands longingly at the gate when she leaves. She is a natural with animals, and is both responsible and an excellent communicator. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”

“Arleen was great. She provide constant updates without asking, was punctual and prompt with responses. Helped us feel at ease while we were away.”

Fiona J.

“Diana was great! She came through in the clutch after we had a last minute sitter cancellation. She spent quality time with Dinho multiple times a day, called right away the one time Dinho was acting up, and was easy to coordinate with. Would definitely book her again!”

“Durell and Michael are amazing! They did a great job watching our dog Comet. They sent a lot of pictures and followed along with his schedule perfectly. We felt so comfortable about leaving him with them. We will definitely be using them again.”

Jenny S.

“Lexis is an exceptional pet sitter who took amazing care of both my dog and cat. They absolutely love her, and it's clear she treats them with so much care and attention. I really appreciate the updates she provides while she's watching them—it gives me such peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I always feel confident leaving my pets with her, and I can't recommend her highly enough!”
