“Ivy did a wonderful job at caring for our puppy, Kuma, while we were away! Ivy was very attentive to our puppy and asked great questions before to get a good sense of his needs. I really enjoyed getting pictures of Kuma throughout his time with Ivy. I have a very anxious dog and Ivy was super patient with Kuma until he warmed up to her. I will definitely be rebooking in the future!!”
“Elizabeth is such a gem. Not only very knowledgeable and experienced but she was also incredibly attentive to my pup’s needs. Will definitely be booking her again 😊”
“Very professional, clean, and cares a lot about your pets. Communicates well and sends lots of pictures. Will definitely be booking again! She was a pleasure to work with and I know our cats were lucky to have her while we were away.”
“Jada is absolutely wonderful! We just came home to the most relaxed and happy kitty after a few days out of town and couldn't be more pleased with her work. She is prompt, communicative, kind, and was just so great with our best guy. This was our first booking with Jada and we will definitely be contacting her again. Highly recommend for excellent cat care!”
“Jennifer did an amazing job taking care of our cat! She sent regular updates and plenty of pictures and was always so responsive when we had questions. We will absolutely book her again next time we’re out of town.”
“Wow Schirn is absolutely amazing! I would recommend her to anyone. She took care of our dog the 10 days we were in Ireland and did an amazing job. We even had a maintenance issue in our apartment and she had it fixed and had me updated in no time. She really is incredible. We got great pictures and updates every day. I will be using her every time we are out of town. 10/10”
“Ariana did a phenomenal job watching our dogs for the weekend! She sent dozens of updates and pictures and made sure they got plenty of time outside and socializing while we were away. One of our dogs has an injured back and she was sure to give him special attention and made being away from them extremely easy and stress free. Would highly recommend Ariana!”
“Meric did a wonderful job taking care of Gordon while housesitting. He was very responsive and kept us updated throughout the day. I had an emergency and needed Meric to watch Gordon an extra day, and Meric was gracious enough to accommodate us last minute. I very much appreciate that Meric was responsible and took perfect care of Gordon and my apartment.”
“My family and I could not be happier with Adriana! It was our first time leaving our dogs and they were so well taken care of we thought they would be sad we were back! She communicates so well and sent us so many pics and videos of our happy pups!!”
About: HI! Thanks for considering me to take care of your pet while you're away. I've always loved animals and have been lucky enough to care for many in my adult life. I'm returning to the platform after a 3 year hiatus after the recent loss of my cat. I have an abundance of love remaining and would love to direct it to as many pets as possible. A few details before booking - I am an MTA commuter, so there is only so far I can go at the moment. - I work in-office Monday thru Wednesday and remotely Thursday thru Saturday. I'm pretty flexible, but for in office days walks and drop-in visits would be early mornings and after 5pm. - Due to my shared living space, I am unable to offer boarding at the moment. - Please share as many details as possible about your pet! I want them to feel as happy and comfortable as I am able to make them while you're away Other than that, we can iron out any details once a request is sent! I look forward to meeting you and your furry loved ones :) I currently work 9 am - 5pm in office Mondays thru Wednesday and remotely the remainder of the week. I am allowed flexibility at my job so if needed I can make adjustment, but I need at least 2 weeks notice to move stuff around. I am very respectful of my clients' homes and abide by the standards and protocols they set. I want to make their pet as happy and comfy while they're away.
“This was my second time booking Josefa for housesitting for 4 nights. I’m so grateful to have found her on Rover, she is detail oriented and goes absolutely above and beyond for my dog. She truly treats him as if he were her own, and buys him little goodies too. Super respectful of the home and honestly leaves it cleaner than before. My slightly reactive/anxious dog can be very particular as well and she handles him great with lots of patience. Highest of recommendations and I can’t thank her enough.”
“Brenda did amazing with our rambunctious kitten! He seemed to love her and cozy right up. She was responsive and super easy to coordinate with! Would certainly use her again.”
“Fiona was amazing with my big sensitive rescue dog while I was out of the country for a few days. She was so responsive and thoughtful with updates and pictures while I was away and administered all of Clifford’s meds and even took him to his favorite pet store. So lucky to have found her!”
“Sarah was absolutely perfect… communicative, caring and wonderful with our sometimes nervous pooch. She asked all the right questions in the beginning and I would strongly recommend her without any reservations. We’ll certainly be using her again—she’s truly wonderful.”
“Erin was amazing as always at taking care of our dog. She sends a lot of updates and has great communication before and during the booking. We will always try to book Erin first when we need a sitter!”
“Amy was such a wonderful sitter for Ruby and we can’t wait to have her watch her again! She was super easy to communicate with and made our first time leaving Ruby feel so easy and not stressful at all!”
“Danny was amazing! He watched my two pups ( Dachshund and mixed Pitty rescue from Fri through Mon house sitting full time while I was away. My pups loved him right away and went to walks and ate started from the day one ( didn’t not get depressed but remained in routine from day one) He was very patient with my grumpy doxie and found a way to snooze the anxiety of Turtle ( rescue) he was communicating consistently with me so I felt he is in a good control of my household and gave my pups plenty walks and attention. I am surely will use his services again. Thank you Danny!”
“Tatia was outstanding! She communicated effectively and consistently. She was thorough with her questions in getting to know us and our dog’s needs. Tatia took such good care of our dog that I hope she comes back again and again to dog sit forever. 5 stars.”

Red Hook pet parents share their Rover experiences
My pup had a great week with Jennifer. She provided consistent updates and I could tell she was spending quality time with our dog. It seemed that she genuinely enjoyed being with her and that made it so much easier to be away. I look forward to using her again in the future.
Sophia is super caring and communicative. We have an anxious dog with specific routines around meeting strangers and being left alone, and Sophia was great at following these instructions to make sure Junie feels comfortable in every situation - including at the vet! Junie was sad to see her go :)
5 stars for Erin! I was nervous using Rover for the first time to find a sitter for my senior dog. Erin immediately put me at ease. She’s warm, calm, and competent. She took great care of Archie and was super understanding when he had tummy issues. Erin is also a fantastic communicator, keeping me updated every step of the way. I appreciated her care so much. Would absolutely recommend.
This was Ace’s first time watching our dog and in advance of her stay, she offered to come by our apt beforehand for a meet and greet, which showed great responsibility. During her stay, we could tell she took good care of our dog - she gave a very detailed update full of pictures each day which we really appreciated! She was also very respectful of our home, leaving things clean and tidy for when we got back.
Sandy was a great sitter. She was able to sit Mocha at very late notice. She came on time, stayed extra at the end and was very flexible. Easy to communicate with as well so made it very simple to coordinate. Very good with Mocha who liked Sandy straight away and was very sad when she left. Would recommend her!
