About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was in middle school. When I lived in Brooklyn, I was a full time dog walker and boarded when clients needed last minute care. I have 2 rescue dogs named Bobo and Belle and also a rescue cat named Lenny. Since I am a stay at home parent to a child in school, I am available all week with little notice and most weekends with advance notice My pets enjoy a fenced in yard on our lot which is a third acre and has plenty of space for them to play and run

Lori was FANTASTIC with my shy yet sweet cat. I usually worry about her when I'm away but I can honestly say I felt at ease. Lori followed all directions and managed to get real play/petting time. I can't recommend her enough.

Ana did a great job taking care of our kitties, even though they are super shy and hid most of the time. She went above and beyond looking for them and making sure they were safe! Absolutely will ask for her help again in the future.

About: Hello! I’ve been in the pet care industry for 3 years professionally, and almost my whole life personally through friends and family. I’m an animal lover, and I’m ready to meet some new friends! I used to service dogs in East Midtown and have experience with many breeds and temperaments. I also own cats and have worked professionally as a cat sitter in Chelsea/Downtown. I recently moved to the area and can offer walks, sittings, and boarding. We can set up a free meet and greet to see how we can work together to help your companion thrive. I work 10am through 6pm Monday-Friday for walks, extra charge for anything outside of that time frame and weekends/holidays. Inquire about sittings/boardings. Safety is always my priority when it comes to any sort of service. I follow any given instructions and communicate with the parents if I have any questions/concerns. I’m also CPR certified.

About: Im kind and patient with the pets I take care of. I make sure that they’re getting the care they deserve. I also love to make pets happy, so i’ll make sure to play with the animals. I have tons of free time after class so I have time to spare to with pets. I can take long walks for dogs who need them and stay late watching pets. I watch them to make sure they aren’t putting themselves in danger. I make sure to feed them on time and that they’re drinking enough water.

About: I’ve had welcomed my first pet ever when I was 10 years old , then in 2012 I’ve have welcome another fur baby to the family . Being around my own personal pets made me love doing dog sitting a lot more so starting in 2013 I’ve decided to volunteer and also become employed with the services of onboarding , dog walking , etc . I love doing my job when it comes to pets because I think of them as my own. I am currently working Monday - Friday but my schedule is also very flexible. I am free on the weekends if services are needed as well. When caring for your pets in your home or my home they are well taken care of between any medications, a routine that they follow I will make sure that while your away they will be left in great hands .

About: Hi, I’m Nia! 👋 I’m a dedicated pet owner to two pups of my own, so I understand exactly how important trust, routine, and communication are when someone else is caring for your furry family. Whether your pet needs a reliable walk, a calm companion, or consistent daily care, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. 🐾 Pet Owner Experience I already manage daily schedules, walks, feeding, and training for my own dogs—so caring for yours comes with experience, patience, and genuine love. 📸 Clear Communication You’ll get real-time updates, photos, and quick messages so you always know how your pet is doing. ⏱️ Routine-Focused Care If your pet thrives on structure, you’re in the right place. I’ll follow your routine exactly—walks, meals, medications, and preferred routes. 🏡 Home-Respectful If I’m visiting your home, I take it seriously. I tidy up water bowls, bring in packages, wipe paws after walks, and keep your space secure. Availability ⏰ I offer walks and drop-in visits during the following hours: Weekdays: 8:00 AM – 8:00 PM Weekends: 9:00 AM – 7:00 PM Requests outside of these hours may be accommodated on a case-by-case basis, depending on availability. I’m big on consistency. As a pet owner myself, I know how much animals rely on their routine, so I follow your pet’s schedule exactly. A typical visit includes: • On-time walks at their usual pace and preferred route • Feeding exactly how and when you specify • Fresh water and a quick tidy of their eating area • Playtime or enrichment based on your pet’s energy level • Bathroom breaks on a predictable schedule • Updates with photos after each visit so you always know how your pet is doing If your pet has special needs—medications, slow feeding, crate time, training cues—I’ll build that right into the routine. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I care for every pet like I care for my own two dogs—cautiously, attentively, and with respect for their space. Here’s how I keep your pet safe and comfortable: • No off-leash walking unless it’s in a secure, owner-approved area • Secure home entry and exit (doors locked, lights as instructed) • Paw wipes after walks when needed • Avoiding crowded or stressful areas for pets who are reactive or nervous • Following all house rules—furniture, crates, baby gates, food restrictions • Maintaining a calm atmosphere so your pet feels relaxed in their own environment If I’m in your home, I’m respectful of your space and can also bring in packages, water plants, or keep an eye on anything you’d like.

About: I have grown up around animals my entire life, and was often asked by neighbors and friends to watch their pets on vacation. Along with my own experiences owning several varieties of pets including cats, fish, and geckos, I also have professional experience from years working at different pet stores, which broadened my knowledge to dogs, birds, guinea pigs, and other small and exotic animals. Simply put, your pets are mine for the time they are in my care, and I will treat them with the same love and attention that I give my own because I know how much pets enrich our lives. I'm currently self-employed, so I have a flexible schedule to play and care for your pets. I am also available for overnight stays and can do general house care as well such as lights, cleaning and watering plants. I do not board, but I tailor my care based off of the care you are already providing for your pet, so there is as little change to their normal routine as possible.

About: During the 20 years of experience I have gained as a pet sitter, I have become someone who goes above and beyond what an average sitter will do. I adhere to specific guidelines set by the owner so that their pet receives the exact type of care they are requesting. I have experience with senior animals as well. I have administered prescription medications as needed and I am very timely. To choose me is to choose the "best of the best" in what you'll be looking for in a animal care provider! I am a dedicated pet sitter. I have open availability and I am very accommodating. Being able to provide these types of services for pet owners has become a passion of mine since my youth. I will be able to commit to my bookings and provide top tier animal care services to all who choose to request me. The animals I have cared for are always within my view. I follow the pet owners specific instructions for care so that they have peace of mind knowing their pet is cared for. I do my best to ensure that the pets have minimal disruption to their daily routine.

About: I’m my friends’ go-to sitter and walker, especially when they’re in a pinch. My background in volunteer work, combined with my love for helping people, is what pushed me to giving Rover a try. I can’t think of a better way to spend my free time! I work fully remote with a very flexible schedule. I’d love to spend that extra time with your pets and keep them entertained. I love the outdoors, so going on long walks to for a group exercise session will always be in order. I give pets the attention they deserve. I’m highly capable of managing my time, where balancing my work and your pets’ needs is never a concern for me.

Karen is the absolute best. She has been looking after my two cats for a couple of years now. She goes above and beyond every time. My cats both love her - even the super skittish one who doesn’t trust many people. I definitely recommend Karen. She is professional, friendly, and trustworthy. We are lucky to have found her.

Kristine has taken care of Meatball since 2023. She takes great care of my very clingy cat and makes this codependent cat mom feel much less anxious knowing he’s in good hands when I’m away. My mom has had health issues this year, and I’ve had to travel upstate often to help her. Kristine always does her best to accommodate my sometimes last-minute requests, which I truly appreciate.
