“Margarita and Cristian took wonderful care of my dog, Gracey, while I was away for 10 days abroad. They sent pictures and let me know how she was doing. I provided notes and suggestions about Gracey as she has anxiety and she managed to adjust really well in their environment and with the other dogs that had overlapped with Gracey’s stay. I look forward to when I need to have Gracey stay with them in the future.”

“Nari and Ryan were such amazing and loving caretakers. They clearly have found their calling as they sent pictures daily, walked my dog regularly and anticipated both pets needs. I give them an A++ . Dont hesitate to book with them. What a loving and smazing family.”

“Ilona was Great with Glitter! She took us last minute after another sitter cancel. Glitter had a lot of fun and made a lot of new. Friends. Ilona knows her stuff how to introduce her and get comfortable. I'm super happy with her service and will highly recommend.”

“I’ve used Britany twice so far and have had a good experience each time. My puppy is eager to see her so I know he’s been well taken care of. Britany does pick ups and drops offs which is a huge help when you’re juggling a lot before heading out of town. I definitely recommend her.”

“Melissa was great! Our pup really loved her dogs and in the photos and videos he seemed so happy! We were really worried about leaving him for two weeks as it was the first time being away from him for so long. Would definitely use Melissa as a sitter again!”

“Veronica and her family spoiled my toy poodle fur baby Rosie. My family and I went away for 6 days and got stuck in Mexico for an extra day due to a flight delay. I messaged her to inform her and ask if she could keep my fur baby an extra day and she responded happily that she would. They treated Rosie like their own fur baby and catered to all her needs. I will only trust Godmom Veronica with Rosie and am so extremely blessed to have found her. She sent me videos and pictures daily and her family loved on her so much I worried she had forgotten me, because she looked so incredibly happy. It put my mind at ease and although I missed her I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation. I’m so thankful to God to have found the wonderful family that loves my baby Rosie.”

“Dan stays in touch with me every day to keep me updated on Flash's daily routine. Flash has a wonderful daily schedule, and they care for him with so much love. I am very grateful for their care and highly recommend them.”

“Anita was absolutely wonderful! She asked for specific details for how to care for our pup and sent update pictures every day that made it clear our dog was having a blast!”

About: I’ve been taking care of a pet dog for the last 25 years. I’m patient and I love animals. I love to walk the dogs and play fetch. I have plenty of time to walk and care for dogs/cats. Morning or late evening morning seven days a week. I like to bring flexibility to my clients. For my pet at home I take him for walks. He likes treats. He likes to eat once a day. Playful so we have playtime. I wash his face every morning. He like to cuddle so he sits next to me when I’m watching tv.

About: Honestly? I’d do this for free — and I have, many times. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors my whole life, and recently completed a month-long live-in cat sit. My background working with kids in sports and with autism has made me patient, attentive, and calm in any situation. Your pet won’t just be watched, they’ll be treated like family. My schedule is about as flexible as it gets. I work part-time just a few hours every few days, and the rest of my time is spent working from home on my business. Your pet won’t be sitting alone waiting for someone to come home. They’ll have a present, engaged, companion, ready for walks, playtime, and everything in between. Whether caring for your pet in my home or yours, safety, and comfort always come first my home features are fully fenced backyard, perfect for off leash play and outdoor time without any worry. I’m in a quiet, low traffic neighborhood that’s ideal for relaxed, walks, and outdoor adventures. Inside, my home is calm and welcoming. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I bring the same attentiveness and routine focused approach so your pet stays comfortable in the environment they know best.
“Juliana and her family were fantastic and really loved my dog. Juliana sent daily updates and I would highly recommend her to take care of your pup!”

“Jessica and her family are wonderful. They took such good care of my dog and provided constant communication and feedback. They even dropped her back off at my house during a snow storm so that I didn't have to travel. I would 100% recommend Jessica and her family for any pet care. I'm so glad to have found you on Rover! Thank you!”

“Rafa had a great stay with Stephanie! We loved getting lots of pics & updates, and it was clear she had a great time when we picked her up. She’s already excited to return for a longer stay in a few weeks! Thank you Stephanie 😊”

“Qin En took good care of my cat Echo while I was out of town. She sent me multiple pictures/videos a day so I can enjoy my vacation while making sure my cat is doing well. She genuinely loves cats and actually any animals! 😂 highly recommend 😊”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. My family has always had dogs at home, and taking care of them has been one of my responsibilities. I also have experience with dog walking and caring for dogs through services like Rover. I have experience in feeding, administering oral medication, bathing, walking, and general care. I’m live in a second floor apartment within walking distance of a dog park, so it’s super easy to get out for exercise! I currently work full time, but I’m typically home on weekends for boarding. I have access to both a car and a bike, depending on the distance from home. I am very attentive to the needs of your pet. I customize my care based on what I learn from you, and how you typically care for your dog. If your dog needs a sweater for every walk or doesn’t like being let out at a certain time, I’ll take that into account.
About: 💠 Hello! I offer pet care for when you’re not able to be there. I am available for drop-in visits, pet sitting, pet daycare, and also pet walking (even for cats!). 🚙 I currently provide pet care services for most of the Nassau County area and some parts of Nassau-Queens border. I am also able to travel to Manhattan with added transportation coverage. I am local: Repeat services booked with me receive special accommodations & rates. 🌃 Messages that are sent after hours on Rover may be responded to on the following day. 🔹 I’m experienced with small breeds, or toy breeds, specifically Pomeranians, been around them all my life, including newborns and senior dogs who were raised starting as puppies. 🔹 Experienced with docile cat breeds, in particular Persian, Himalayan, Ragdoll, Maine Coon and other related cat breeds. 🔹 Have experience with Goldfish, Bettas and birds such as Budgies, so knowledgeable about care. 🐾 I’m intuitive and pay attention to picking up the different ways a dog or cat expresses nonverbal communication, they constantly give us cues. About Me: I own a color-point Persian cat who is 7 years old that I enjoy spoiling. I can speak Italian, enjoy gardening, art, sewing, yoga, tennis & pilates. I’m a fan of the original Twilight movie directed by Catherine Hardwicke. 🐾 I’m currently providing pet care for a King Charles Cavalier who has mobility issues and dietary restrictions, but he is such a big mush! I am also caring for a special needs 4 month old kitten who needs to be syringe-fed, given both topical & oral medication on schedule, along with helping her with using a litter box. In addition to assisting with care of a (palm-sized) rescue kitten who is less than one month old needing to be bottle fed every few hours, given antibiotic medication for her eyes and frequent cleaning with wet wipes, due to being too young to know how to use a litter box. I have found it to be extremely rewarding and willing to look after a few more furbabies within my local area. 🔹 I’m trustworthy and reliable, I would always practice good manners. Respectful of privacy when I’m in a client’s home. I make sure that when I’m with your pet, safety is an upmost priority.
“Susan was highly amiable and kind. She communicated with me throughout the stay. I am appreciative of her efforts to ensure the welfare of my Keiko. I shall be contacting her again”


“Destiny is wonderful! She responded promptly to my request and was very accommodating and flexible around my time needs for drop-off and pick-up. She offered a FaceTime call before booking so I could feel confident and answer any questions I needed. My dog is a senior dog and can have separation anxiety, but I could tell she got along quickly with her. She was kind, courteous, and very friendly. I’ll definitely be continuing to book with Destiny!”

“Valentina was such an incredible sitter who not only shared constant photos and videos but you could tell the cat was being cared and loved in her temporary home! Definitely one of the best out there!”

We are so happy we found Viera! It always feels hard to leave our 15yo dog when we need to travel but Ginger had a great time in Viera's care. Viera and her family are lovely and Ginger enjoyed the human and canine companionship during our absence. She came home happy and relaxed. We will definitely book with Viera again.

We felt very comfortable leaving our puppy with Shan. Her and her family clearly love dogs and sent us many pictures and videos throughout the stay. Our puppy seemed well adjusted when we picked him back up! We plan to have our puppy stay with Shan again when we need a sitter for our fur baby.

Piper and Juno had a fantastic week being cared for by Lisa and Gracie, Juno’s new best friend! Both our dogs were cared for like family, and Lisa shared many pictures and kept us up-to-date throughout the week. We were able to enjoy our vacation, knowing that they were both happy and loved and in great hands. A very kind family to take care of our loved ones.!

We boarded our 1yo dog with Katsumi for 5 nights and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Katsumi was wonderful, clearly loves and cares for dogs and made our boy feel right at home. She was very accommodating to his personality and routine. We’ll definitely be reaching out to Katsumi for future day care and boarding! 💚
