“Kloe was very careful and loving with Bigotes, she kept me very informed and sent me photographs and videos, I highly recommend her and will definitely hire her again. Thank You Kloe !”
About: We have a zoo of our own: 2 golden retrievers and 3 cats. We'd love to help care for your baby while you are away! I have raised dogs all my life, and have work experience in a dog grooming facility. I can administer medication, cater to special diets, and any special requirements that your furry family member may need. Sammi is full time tattoo artist with a flexible schedule and Jerry is a UX designer who works remotely. We are an animal-loving couple who can take on pet sitting requests depending on who is free. We will be predominantly offering drop-in service at our clients' homes and providing dog-walking services. Since we have dogs and cats at our own home, we will not be able to provide boarding service at our home.
“This is the first time we've used Rover and previously always had the benefit of a family member to watch Cinni when away. With only a couple of weeks, we suddenly needed to find an alternative. After scouring reviews on Rover we contacted Lisa M, who very fortunately for us was available. Lisa M arrived promptly at the schedule time each day to care for Cinni and provided thorough updates that quickly set our minds at ease and provided us with some great photos of our kitty. Furthermore, Lisa M was able to successfully medicate Cinni each visit, and those cat owners whose pets require medication know how challenging this can be. Based on our experience enthusiastically recommend Lisa M for anyone else who needs a cat sitter and will be contacting her as soon as I schedule our next trip to ensure she is available to care for Cinni.”
“Anna M was amazing. I had such peace of mind and will be using her again and again She is kind and thoughtful and amazing. Anna even offered to go and purchase a specific flavor of cat food when I ran out of a flavor one of my cats liked. She is great !!!”
“keoma stayed at my apartment to watch my 2 y/o exotic shorthair cat while i was away for over a week. every day she sent me pictures and details about midori’s wellbeing to keep me updated. it not only gave me a peace of mind while i was away from my pet for the first time since i got her, but i also knew she was in great hands getting the attention and love i wanted to make sure she had. she couldn’t have done a better job and i’m beyond happy with everything. when i got home, everything was exactly how i left it and most of all of cat was in high spirits. highly recommend hiring keoma if you want top quality care!”
“We were so thankful Isabella came to be with out kitties during a holiday week and one that was the coldest of the year too! We got back and the cats were very well taken care of.”
“Xuejiao was absolutely amazing with my cat! She treated her like her own and made sure she felt loved while I was away. I got the cutest updates and could totally relax knowing my fur baby was in great hands. So grateful — would 100% ask her again!”
About: Experienced pet owner for 13+ I can play with your dog most of the day/night I don’t mind how old or young I don’t mind big or small Very punctual and reliable! I currently work as a DSP in Port Washington Monday-Friday from 9:15am-3:15pm. I’m available after 4pm and free all day weekends! Please remember to book in advance! Thanks :) As I do not care for pets in my home at this time- I can deal with any circumstances to keep your pet healthy and safe in your home!
“Jasper was super kind and patient with our kitties who are skittish and let them come to him on their own time. They relaxed enough with him to let him hold them on their backs or rub their bellies, so they were very comfortable in his space. Jasper sent us photos and videos while we were away, and even played a recorded voice message for them for us. All in all, we were very happy with Jasper’s service and will definitely use him again in the future. He plainly loves animals, and his apartment is kitten Disneyland.”
“Melissa and her husband took such good care of my kitty while I was away! She was very loving and followed all the instructions I had left her. This was the first time I ever had a cat sitter so I was very nervous. But Melissa made me, as well as my kitty feel very comfortable. I will most definitely be rebooking her again. My kitty loves her so much!”
“Chelsea was wonderful with my cats she sent us constant updates and for two shy guys scared of people usually they really quickly warmed up for her I would absolutely recommend and will absolutely use her again in the future! Thank you for giving us peace of mind on our trip!”
“Diane walked our 10 year old Husky for the first time today. He’s 80lbs of fluff and we knew he was well taken care of when we came home to his happy calm state. Seeing the photos made us feel comfortable that he was in the best of hands. We look forward to having Diane walk Bruno once again.”

About: I've had cats and dogs for most of my life, including fostering, and have helped care for my friends and family's pets while they're out of town. I love spending time with animals and making sure they get all the love and cuddles they need! I work hybrid, so I'm typically available after working hours (around 5pm), but two days a week I can also have more flexibility while I'm at home. Weekends are also generally available! When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space and your animals with the same respect and love I’d give my own. I follow your pet’s routine closely to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and stress-free. Whatever is needed, I hope to make them feel at home while you're away. I will also make sure your home is clean and secure, for your peace of mind.
“Cristina was great. She did an amazing job taking care of rex while i was away. She even brought some of my packages that got delivered to the house which was above and beyond. Highly recommend her.”
About: I have the cutest 3 year old male Bichon Frise! I've taught him how to sit, stay, be nice and down even though he's not very food motivated. He gets away with a lot of thing because he's just soo cute! I would never turn down a chance to baby sit anyone's fur baby, I've done it for my sister's best friend's male puppy Corgi when they went on a double date. The Fur Parents were super impressed that he listened to me! I currently work full time and have some time during the weekends. I've been wanting to adopt another fur baby but with my current schedule it would not be the best idea at the moment. So the second best thing would be to watch someone else's fur baby if they don't have the time but I do! I have a fenced back yard in the most quiet and friendly neighborhood! My dog is quiet and friendly but if for any reason my fur baby and yours do not get along, your fur baby will be in my room with me. I will make sure they are both comfortable and feel loved!

“Chao is fantastic with pets! He's cared for my dog on several occasions, and I've always been impressed with his responsible and loving approach. Chao goes above and beyond to ensure safety and comfort, making him a reliable choice for pet sitting or dog walking. He is truly an awesome human being who genuinely cares for animals and provides excellent customer service.”
Megan M.
“I’ve trusted Megan McCaffrey to care for my two dogs—a lively white shepherd and a sensitive, selective pitbull mix—and she’s been nothing short of amazing. Both girls have very different needs, and Megan handles them with grace, patience, and genuine affection. She keeps my shepherd active and engaged while offering calm, reassuring care to my pit mix, who’s often anxious around new people and just in general. Megan’s ability to read their moods and respond with the right energy is something I deeply value. My dogs adore her, and I always feel at ease knowing they’re in her care. She is also fantastic with her own two high maintenance cats! Megan is reliable, communicative, and incredibly thoughtful. She treats my pets like family and brings a sense of calm and joy to every visit. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and capable pet sitter”
