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
“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: 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: For many years I’ve looked after my family’s pets, I’ve had 3 dogs and 3 cats whom lived long and pampered lives. Neighborhood pet sitting and extended family’s trips, I was always there to look after their fur babies. I’m a full time college student with a flexible schedule looking to take care of any and all of your pets needs. Whether you want a sitter for a day or a few weeks, I can accommodate. Weekends or weekdays I can make myself available within a reasonable time slot for the occasion. Whether pets need to be crated before bed or their meals need special attention I’ll make it happen. Any specifications my client deems necessary for their furry friends is on my agenda.
“Dream pet sitter come true ! She was punctual , thorough, and had great communication . So glad I found her and will use her going forward ! Highly recommend !”

“Jorge took excellent care of our cat while we were out of town, and was able to fit her into his schedule without much advance notice. He was very communicative and helpful (he even vacuumed up some litter!) and I knew our cat was in good hands while we were away.”

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: 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.

About: I've been a dog owner for the past 13 years and have also cared for dogs belonging to friends, neighbors, and family members. Through those experiences, I've become comfortable with dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. To me, dogs aren't just pets they're family members. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else's care, which is why I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, lots of cuddles, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. As a former Division I athlete, I'm active, dependable, and love being outdoors, making me a great match for dogs who enjoy exercise and adventure. At the same time, I understand that every dog is different, and I'm happy to adjust to their individual needs and personality. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I'll always provide plenty of updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is simple: to make sure your dog has a great time and gets the same love and attention they're used to at home! Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I make sure every pet gets the time, attention, and exercise they need. I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility throughout the week. I'm committed to keeping pet parents updated and ensuring their pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. When caring for pets in a client's home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and making sure your pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and house rules to ensure consistency while you're away. During walks, I always keep dogs securely leashed, pay close attention to their surroundings, and prioritize their safety at all times. During drop-in visits, I'll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, fresh water, and lots of love. I understand that pets are family members, so I'll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect that I would expect for my own. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Currently, I have two cats of my own and I occasionally walk my friend’s dogs and check in on their pets when they’re away. I currently just graduated college with a biomedical sciences degree so I’m completely free this summer before I do my masters in Syracuse this fall! Depending on your cats personality, I’d either give them their space or play with them so they can release pent up energy! I’ll make sure they have everything they need and clear litter boxes as needed. I’m pretty good at following instructions, so if there’s anything specific that you’d like me to do, just leave me a list or send me a text!
“Elisa was a wonderful sitter for our two kitties. I greatly appreciated the extra effort she took to work with us when our schedule changed due to bad weather. And I know Jack enjoyed getting a little play time!”

“Ruth is amazing! She is dependable and communicative, and really cares about your pets. She shows up when she says she's going to, which is really important. My kitties were happy and healthy when I returned! I really hate leaving my babies but she enabled me to travel with minimal stress. I also have a special needs rescue who is afraid of her own shadow, and everything went great. :)”

Pelham pet parents share their Rover experiences
I cannot recommend our cat sitter highly enough! She took such amazing care of our cats while we were away and went above and beyond in every way. Not only did she make sure our cat was comfortable and monitored closely, but she also cleaned up all the messes without complaint and kept us updated throughout the entire time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets were in such caring and capable hands. She was reliable, attentive, communicative, and genuinely treated our cats as if they were her own. It’s not easy dealing with unexpected pet health issues, but she handled everything with kindness and dedication. We came home to happy cats and a clean home, and we are so grateful for her help.
