“Kristina was a lifesaver when our usual dog sitter had to cancel last minute due to a health emergency. Kristina was available on short notice and even made time to come meet our dog Lorenzo a few days ahead to get him comfortable with her, and learn his routine and care needs. After that brief visit and her warm and patient approach with him, he took to her, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. She kept us updated on how he was doing during the day and took great care of him. We will definitely be using Kristina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for help with their pet!”


“Absolutely incredible. I needed a sitter for my pup last minute and Jess went out of her way above and beyond to squeeze in a meet and greet as well as watching my furbaby. Super sweet, punctual, great communication and absolutely love and care for my furbaby. Highly recommend and would definitely rebook with when needed.”


“Having Danielle stay at our house with our fur baby Gus is the best of all worlds! When we go away, Gus is most comfortable staying in our house. Danielle comes and is able to keep Gus to his regular schedule and loves him like we do! She also takes great care of our home! We are very lucky to have found her!”


“We highly recommend Jen. We came home to a happy dog and a clean home. We are so grateful to be able to go out of town knowing that Bertha is in such good hands!”


About: As a lifelong dog lover and owner of a Goldendoodle for 9 years, I bring patience, reliability, and real hands-on experience to every walk and visit. I’m currently looking for full-time work and working part-time currently, so I am very flexible with my timing. I am around during the week and most weekends. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment with space to play and relax. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure their pet feels comfortable and secure. I give lots of attention, maintain routines, and keep pet parents updated with photos and notes.

“Emely was amazing with my pets! She was caring, attentive, and treated them like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving for their pets!.”


About: Since grade school I have been taking care of my families animals. I have experience with puppies and kittens. In the past I have been done extended pet sitting for weeks at a time. My girlfriend and I currently have two young cats (Bob & Paolo). I am excited to match your fur babies energy whether that’s going on long walks or being couch potato’s together. You tell me! My girlfriend and I have recently moved to New York from Wichita, KS so she can finish up med school. Leaving my previous job behind I am currently available for what works for you! From previous pet sittings I am used to giving medication, adding raw food to kibble, & going on long walks. I took care of my sisters prehistoric 14 year old Frenchie who was very high maintenance. Just let me know what your fur baby needs!

“I had Jessica stay over night with my senior pups. One is on meds. Highly recommend her!”


About: Whether it's caring for my hyper-active Golden Retriever, my attitude-giving Tabby Cat, or my reoccurring client's King Charles' Spaniel and English Setters, I'm more than equipped to handle any size dog or cat. I'm used to staying at the pet's home, but willing to be flexible and stop by whenever needed. Fun Facts: Used to caring for horses, barn cats, goats, rabbits, and fish. Taking care of my pets is a huge part of my schedule as I find it's the best way to keep them happy and healthy. Daily walks, even weekly park visits, and lots of cuddles and scratches are all simple ways to keep my kids content and healthy. I make sure my pets are in their respective areas before leaving my home; this ensures that they are in a safe place and have access to any food or water they need. Care varies depending on client's wants/pet's needs, but I am willing to handle a crated pet or free-roaming (as long as they are well adjusted and don't mind strangers).

About: Hi I’m Mili! I have experience in dogs and cats of multiple breeds and sizes. I own an animal rescue and neuter/spaying foundation in Ecuador ❤️. I have a deep and special connection with animals and I would love to share my love and experience with your pets. I work a full time Monday-Friday job, however, we can adjust the schedule that works best for us! My weekends are very flexible and I am comfortable house sitting over nights. I believe communication is the best way to ensure I can provide your pet with the best care! 🩷 I follow instructions and specifications from pet parents. During my drop-in visits, I like to provide with a 20 minute walk and 2 walks (and as many necessary potty breaks) during house sitting. I also come prepared with brushes, extra treats and other pet friendly items! 🤎💛🐶🐱

About: I am a physician assistant student looking for some extra income 👩🏻⚕️ I have many years of experience caring for my pets and pets of family and friends.

About: Hi there, I am a marketing, events, and partnerships professional with a passion for animal care. I am a certified ski instructor, swim teacher, and wilderness leader with a passion for sports and the outdoors. In my free time you’ll find me volunteering at a local animal shelters and walking dogs around prospect park for NYC Sean Casey’s rescue. I have references from families I have worked for years for, and look forward for your family and animals to join my circle of loved animals. I am currently working freelance positions that do not require me to be in person M-F. I currently work part time for a pet care company out of Westchester and reside in Brooklyn. My family home is also an option for boarding, as well as my spacious apartment. I am open to traveling to all over the Tri-state area. I have been a animal care companion for years for local families who ask me to long term/short stay pet sit ( a three week stay was my longest) and even just do stop ins to water plants if they are away with their animals on holiday. For boarding my home is pet friendly with no restrictions on furniture, and no toxic plants in reach of any curious snouts. While I do not have a fence backyard, I have a patio and two large grassy spots with a long lead tie up for supervised outside time. We are two large lots down from a main road. I am always cautious, safety first, and respectful with all animals and other owners we may come in contact with, and always follow owners lead if socialization is acceptable for each situation.

Justin R.
“There is no there person that I can trust with my pet. I am very picky about walkers after what happened to Lady Gaga. Justin is kind, loving and so caring. When my elderly dog got sick and walks took even longer than usual due to her moving slowly Justin took his time and never rushed and ensured that my baby enjoyed her walks to the fullest. He is very observant and noticed when my dog was acting unusual which prompted me to take her to the vet in the first place. If you want someone you can depend on to care for your pet as if it is his own please choose Justin as your dog walker. I can’t rave about him enough.”

Oyster Bay Cove pet parents share their Rover experiences
Taylor did such an amazing job with our two pups over a multiple day/night house sitting. She was extremely communicative, organized and showed such love and care for the dogs. They are pretty active dogs and she was totally game for long walks, play, etc. She also took great care of the house and left it in better shape than she found it. Can’t say enough good things and I think our doggos miss her already.
