“Laura was great! She took excellent care of our cat, Ernie, while we were away. She clearly loves animals and was so kind and gentle with him. Thank you, Laura!”

“Charlie has been amazing with my dog Oliver. He walks him during the day and is always reliable, attentive, and caring. I can tell Oliver genuinely enjoys his time with him, which gives me peace of mind while I’m busy. It’s not easy trusting someone with your dog, but Charlie makes it effortless. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and kind dog walker.”

“Anscia was available for a last minute drop in that was needed and was very helpful in taking care of Gio while I was caught up at an appointment. Thank you, Anscia!!”

“Kelsy was great and went above & beyond what she needed to do! Everything was clean & tidy, and she even brought in my mail for me. It’s clear she knows how to take care of cats well because Pluto warmed up to her pretty quickly even though she’s quite shy and scared of strangers normally.”

“Christy was great with my cats, Poppy and Farfle; after a friend cancelled last minute, she swooped in and saved the day! She was kind, communicative, and went the extra mile to make sure my kitties were safe and comfy over the holidays!”

“This was my first time using Rover, so I was a bit anxious, but Melanie was so great with my cats! She fed my cats, emptied my Litter-Robot, kept the water dispenser topped up, and followed all my instructions perfectly. She so was great with my cats, they absolutely loved her I felt totally at ease while I was away. Highly recommend!”

“Melanie was wonderful! She sent daily updates and multiple pictures while I was away, which allowed me to feel confident that my cat was in good hands. I have a very needy cat and every picture update showcased how happy my kitten was.”

“Thoselin was great. She made all the visits on time, took pictures of my kitties, and cleaned their litter box everyday. My kitties are normally shy with strangers, but my babies seemed to love her.”

“Satisfied customer, Each visit Dorothy sent photos of our cat playing or eating. She also cleaned up after our cat, who has accidents. It even seemed that she cleaned the floor near the pan. As an indicator of a friend to our cat, when she arrived to drop off the keys to our place, he went right to her to get a rub! She is an amazing cat sitter.”

About: Since adopting my own pup in 2022, I’ve fallen in love with caring for dogs of all kinds—from energetic puppies who need playtime galore to sweet seniors who prefer gentle cuddles. I’ve been the go-to sitter for friends and family, mastering the art of patience, routine, and tail-wagging fun. Working from home means your dog gets constant companionship, potty breaks on schedule, and plenty of affection. Your furry friend will be treated like family! 💕 Since I work from home full-time on weekdays, I’m always around to give your pup constant love, playtime, and frequent potty breaks (my own dog goes out 4+ times a day, so yours will get the same care!). On weekends and days off, I love staying active—whether it’s leisurely walks, park trips, or cozy downtime, I adapt to your dog’s energy level. From high-energy pups to laid-back seniors, I make sure every dog feels at home while sticking to their routine. Let me know your pet’s needs, and I’ll keep their tail wagging! My dog-friendly loft is a cozy, secure space wherever pups are welcome on furniture (including the bed!)—because let’s be honest, snuggles are non-negotiable. To keep things clean and safe, I wipe all paws after walks and tidy up any messes immediately. I’m attentive to each dog’s needs, whether it’s puppy-proofing for curious noses or senior-friendly accommodations. Rest assured, your pup will enjoy a happy, hygienic, and hazard-free stay!

“Sunita truly went above and beyond taking care of my two cats while I was away. She is extremely reliable, friendly, communicative, and clearly an animal lover. The city experienced a major heatwave part way through my trip and not only did she make sure my cats were comfortable, but she also put my mind at ease by sharing plenty of photos and updates with each visit. I highly recommend booking her for your pet sitting needs—I definitely will again!”


About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my reliability, attention to detail, and hands-on experience working with animals. I’ve volunteered at Sean Casey Animal Rescue, where I helped care for dogs with different temperaments, energy levels, and backgrounds. That experience helped me develop a strong understanding of animal behavior and how to provide calm, patient, and compassionate care. In addition, I often take care of friends’ dogs when they travel or are away, so I’m used to maintaining routines like feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are gone. I’m especially attentive with young pets who need structure and positive reinforcement, and I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs who may need slower walks, extra attention, or medication reminders. I prioritize safety, consistency, and keeping pets relaxed in their environment. I also make sure pet parents stay informed by sending regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make every pet feel secure and cared for, and every owner feel confident their companion is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible freelance schedule and currently no full-time job. This allows me to dedicate consistent time and attention to the pets I care for throughout the day. I’m able to plan my work around walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, and playtime, making sure each pet gets reliable care and attention. Because of this flexibility, I’m also available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits when needed. My routine allows me to be dependable, responsive to pet parents, and fully focused on providing safe, attentive care for every pet. I provide attentive, reliable care that keeps pets comfortable and safe in their usual environment. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, taking dogs on walks, cleaning up after them, and making sure they get plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. I also monitor their behavior and well-being to ensure they are happy and healthy while you’re away. For drop-ins or walks, I make sure pets get the physical activity and attention they need, along with bathroom breaks and any specific care instructions you provide. I respect your home, keep things clean, and send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well. My goal is to make pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while giving owners peace of mind.
About: I have rescued and cared for animals my whole life. In addition, I’ve done pet sitting, walking and administering medication when needed. Reliable and loving. I am currently working part time but have enough flexibility to help out with your pets…even if you just want someone to keep them company, or check in on them. I will spend quality time with your pet..undivided attention, playtime, affection, walking, feeding and fulfilling needs required by pet/pet owner. Pet will not be confined and becomes a “part of the family”.
Queens pet parents share their Rover experiences
I’ve been using Melanie’s services for the past few times we’ve been traveling out of town, the longest being 10 days out of town! She is so attentive and responsive and I trust my baby Nuni with her. Having her has been a lifesaver and I recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs! <3333

Laura is very attentive and took great care of my cat, Bunny! Bunny had some mild diarrhea right before we left for our trip, but thanks to Laura’s attentive care, she was back to her healthy self in no time. She also kept me updated and took lots of pics which I really appreciated. Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️

This is our second time hiring Tedy to watch after our cat Baloo, and we couldn’t be happier! Shes so kind, incredibly communicative and has a natural gift with animals. We felt so assured our entire trip abroad that Baloo was in the best hands. Thank you!

Brae is the best. This was my second time asking her to pet-sit my cat and she did amazing. She took a really good care of my cat, sent me daily updates with cute pictures, and most of all she was so gentle and sweet with my cat. Brae is very responsive, responsible, as well as very pleasant. Highly recommend. Thank you again, Brae!

Highly recommend Kristin! She took amazing care of my cats and followed all instructions perfectly. She is communicative, sent great photos, and handled extra requests like mail and cleaning with ease. My cats were happy and safe under her care. I will definitely be booking her again in the future!
