“I really appreciated her attention to details and detailed Rover cards with pictures after each visit. She took her time to do a meet and great which gave me so much reassurance leaving my cat (my baby) behind. Definitely will love to have her again!”
“Khrys was the perfect person to check on Betsy; she was comfortable with a grumpy kitty and handled her with care. Khrys was also very communicative, responsive, and flexible. Would recommend Khrys to anyone!”
“Jada was amazing with my sweet kitties. Her caring nature and compassion made me feel at ease while Away on vacation. Her prompt attention to any requests were quickly made with ease. I knew she was a cat whisperer when she sent sweet pictures of my shy kitty on her very first visit to my home. Even during a holiday weekend, Jada was prompt and attentive. I will definitely be booking with Jada for my next vacation. ❤️”
About: I've had exposure to dogs big and small since I was a kid. My wife likes to say that dogs gravitate towards me, but in actuality I'm the one that can't resist showering them in affection! To this day when I visit friends I will say hi to the dog first! Every pup is a cherished member of the family and deserves to be treated with utmost respect and love. I've had the privilege of training, grooming, and playing with dogs for decades. Choose me for your pet care needs so that I can make more furbaby friends! I work remotely full-time so I have the flexibility to go for walks in the early morning, mid-afternoon, and evenings. Weekends are completely open for pet care of all kinds. I can walk, feed, and crate your pets in your home. I take all pet's needs (and owner's requests) into consideration such as how food is prepared and what stimuli to avoid to keep pets happy.
“Rachel is the best! She is super friendly and responsible. She not only took care of my cat Mimi very well, and also helped with troubleshoot my pet camera, and watering plants. It’s really appreciated.”
About: Im based out of Bethpage and available to help you gain some free time to travel or ease of mind during the day. Whether you have a small parrot , a small to medium pup, cat or quirky guinea pig who needs fresh veggies - I'm ready! Let's give you back some free time while making sure your pets are cared for. I cant wait to meet your fur baby. I have a flexible schedule to fit you and your fur babies in between 6am and 3 pm Monday to Friday. Weekends hours are extra. When caring for pets in my clients home , I treat your space with the same care and attention I give my own. For small to medium dogs , cats and guinea pigs I offer drop in visits where I provide feeding, fresh water and playtime /attention. Will attend to any messes/accidents and am happy to refresh bedding/clean guinea pig cages as needed. For small parrots I can accommodate boarding in my already parrot safe home as I currently have 2 quaker parrots of my own provided they arrive in their own secure travel safe cage. Whether your home or mine, I strive to create a clean, safe and loving atmosphere so your pet feels secure and you feel at peace.
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!
“Very nice and easy going. Mimi had a pleasant stay with Wenxu!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Julia caring for my dogs and cat while I was away. From the start, she was extremely punctual and professional. She even took the time to visit beforehand to learn exactly where everything was,like the food, water bowls, and cat litter showing how committed she was to making sure everything would be perfect. During her time with my pets, Julia stayed in great communication, sending me regular updates and the cutest photos that really put my mind at ease. It was clear she genuinely cared about my animals and took her responsibility seriously. I highly recommend Julia to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter. She truly went above and beyond!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for my entire life. I have my own dog whom I have trained and take care of. I have worked for Camp Bow Wow where I took care of dogs of all sizes. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my day to include regular walks, feeding times, play sessions, and check-ins to ensure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether it's early morning walks or evening cuddles, I make sure their needs come first. In my client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine closely—feeding, walking, playtime, and any special instructions like medications or training cues. I keep their space clean and safe, and I always give updates with photos and messages for peace of mind. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I provide a secure, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and comfort.
“So sweet and constantly gave updates on my babies while I was away! 10/10 highly recommend”
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’m flexible about schedules but prefer to work weekdays in the mornings, however, we can adjust the schedule that works best for us. I can also stay 2-3 days when needed. I usually do whatever the dog or cat parent tells me To do, but I always feed, walk, brush and also clean after the doggy or kitten.
“Mackenzie was really great! Prioritized my cat and tried to play with her even though my cat is a little shy. She was also very responsive to questions and flexible to any last minute changes!”
“Excellent experience. This was my first time using Rover. Rebecca was amazing, reliable, took excellent care of my fur babies while we were away. She sent daily updates and pics. Highly recommend! Will be using Rebecca again for future trips!”
About: I have decades of experience caring for pets, mostly my own. I grew up in a house full of dogs and have maintained that my whole life. Also had a great cat, hamsters and other pets. I believe animals deserve the best care possible as our “best friends” and beloved family members. I have extensive experience too in customer service and am highly solution-oriented. If you need me in a moments notice, always happy to do it if available. I have many years of experience also serving on boards at various animal shelters as well as volunteering to walk/care for dogs and cats and these locations. Even ran the NYC marathon as a top fundraiser for the ASCPA. My priorities in order are: god, pets, then people. Think I’ve got that in good order! 🥰 Currently between full time jobs and looking for a change of pace as well as to build a business that can extend into charitable resources beyond my income to help animals in need. I will follow your instructions exactly as detailed as well as use my years of experience should something occur or I notice a need/potential issue. My goal is to make the visit as enriching for your pet as possible. I think they sense that on me as animals tend to gravitate toward me, even the most shy and skittish. We live a nice life but my dogs probably even better than I. I provide them with superior care and lots of love. Animals are very perceptive and so I work to extend that same level of connection to all animals I meet, which would include yours if you select me for your pet care needs. Thank you!
“Would like to thank Max for a very nice drop in visit with zippy. Everything went well, timely appointment. Zippy was fed and let out we highly recommend Max.”
“Kaylee not only took care of our dog while we were away but cleaned up after him. He is an older dog and has accidents now. Kaylee is very kind and has left us with a such a good feeling that Jaxson is being treated well while we are traveling !”
“Lissette was super reliable and a great communicator. We definitely recommend her and would love for her to care for our Penny again in the future!”
About: Hi there! I'm Emmie. Anyone who knows me knows I am a huge cat person. I have 3 rescued kitties of my own. I’ve owned 5 cats during my lifetime. They were very scared when I got them but over time they turned to mushes because they feel safe and loved. I am lucky to work from home so I will be currently available only during the afternoons and evenings. I am open to late visits as well. I work as a freelance graphic designer and I own an online retail business. I have transportation as well. I currently reside in Nassau County but I am open to other places on Long Island. I have owned cats for almost 20 years. They are my fur baby children. I have been called the cat whisperer many times by others. I have a gentle and patient way with them that they appreciate. I am a slow blinker and so cats feel extremely comfortable with me. I volunteer as a cat transporter in my spare time.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and I am very knowledgeable & responsible. I find dogs & cats trust me because they sense that I’m a kind caring person. I’m currently retired so I will have plenty of time to meet your pet care needs. I get lots of daily exercise walking and doing yoga. I’m comfortable walking in all kinds of weather. I will care for your pet the same way that you would. I follow your exact instructions. Your pet is my first priority at all times. I always want to bond and create a nice connection because their happiness is important to me.

“Ulysses is a great friend of mine and one of the things we have bonded over is our love of all animals, but especially dogs! Being a dog owner himself, Ulysses understands that they are more than just pets, they are family members. When he is with your pup, Ulysses will protect, care for, and love your dog like one of his own! If you are seeking a responsible, trustworthy pet care giver who will provide your fur baby with continued love and attention when outside of your care, then Ulysses will be a wonderful fit for you!”

Catherine L.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reliable, Trustworthy, and Truly Caring – 3 Years of Peace of Mind I’ve been using Catherine for drop-in visits with my cat for the last 3 years, and I can confidently say she is the most reliable and compassionate sitter I’ve ever worked with. Whether I’m away for a weekend or on a longer trip, I know my cat is not only cared for but genuinely loved. She takes the time to play, refresh water, scoop the litter box, and sends thoughtful updates with photos after every visit. Her attention to detail and respect for my home have been consistent and appreciated. My cat is typically shy, but she warmed up quickly to Catherine—which speaks volume about Madison. It is also a relief to know she has some basic healthcare knowledge. If you’re looking for someone you can trust completely, who shows up every time and truly loves animals, look no further. Highly recommend without hesitation!”
Matthew W.
“Matthew has been taking my 2 dogs on walks and checking in on my cat for awhile now. I'm always happy with his service and know my pets are well taken care of. My cat's litter is always clean, food prepared and bowl subsequently cleaned (my cat eats fast), and seems like she got good social time. My dogs energy levels are calm when i get back from trips/work. Truly satisfied with his care and I'd recommend him to anyone!”
