Shelley was absolutely great! She came in exactly when she said she would and went above and beyond caring for my cat. She took the time to give my cat attention, made sure the food and water bowls were full, and stayed in constant communication with me throughout. I especially appreciated the photo updates—it gave me such peace of mind. I highly recommend Shelley to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember! I grew up with two dogs and was very hands-on with their care; everything from long walks to making sure they were always active, happy, and getting lots of attention. Since then, I’ve dog and cat sat for many friends and neighbors over the years, and I always treat their pets like my own. I know how important it is to stick to a pet’s routine and make them feel comfortable while you’re away. I work a hybrid schedule, so I’m available for pet sitting three days during the week and can be flexible based on your pet’s needs! I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and predictable environment for every pet. I’m very attentive on walks; keeping a close eye on surroundings, avoiding unsafe situations, and making sure your pet is always secure. In the home, I’m mindful about keeping doors closed, food and small items out of reach, and maintaining a clean, hazard-free space. I also take time to understand your pet’s personality, comfort level, and boundaries. Whether that means giving them space to warm up, sticking closely to their routine, or providing extra attention and reassurance, I adjust my approach to best fit their needs!😊🐾

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 12. My family and friends would ask me to pet sitting sometimes. I also trained my own dogs too I’m available weekdays before 9 and after 5 pm and weekends all day from very early to late. I don’t mind staying overnight. It’s ok for me I have toys for cats, scratches, a tower and a good space to take care of your pet without any problems. I’m also open to get some dog toys.

About: My mother taught me everything I know about taking care of animals ever since I was eight years old, and I haven't stopped. To this day I have a 12 year old Great Dane that I take care of that requires specifics. I am currently working with my Great Dane, Mia, a dog that has incontinence that requires many walks, taking care of her diapers and cleaning up after her bed if needed. It's a daily thing that I need to work around along with school work in college. While my apartment isn't something that I can do. But I am more than willing to stay at home, I have worked in other people's home before, personal friends and I have an easy time adjusting to any environment.

About: Hi! I’m Jill! I’ve cat and dog sit regularly since I was a child and volunteered at local animal shelters as well. Available in NYC and Yonkers most days, just reach out! I’m currently working full time, so I’m most available after 5pm on weekdays, but am also available full time on weekends. I have some flexibility on weekdays during the day if a few days’ notice is given though! Cleaning litter box, playing, petting, refreshing water bowls and fountains, feeding dry and wet food and giving treats, walking, anything that you specifically do with them I’d be happy to do as well

Lili took care of our cat, Mishmish, while we were on vacation. She followed instructions to the T, and our elderly cat, who is usually pretty lethargic and not overly friendly, warmed up to her. We came back to clean litter box, swept floors, and our cat having fresh water and food. We will absolutely work with Lili again when we travel for extended period of time, and highly recommend her to any pet owner.

About: I have loved animals all my life! I have had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and a few years working with PetsMart as a Pet Care associate. I am a full time pet sitter and I look forward to meeting and caring for new friends. I'm very very flexible and have transportation. I have a full house of cats and reptiles at home, so I can only pet sit in clients homes. I care for my pets by feeding twice a day, providing a lot of cat furniture and toys, being attentive and playful with them through out the day and allow them some sun bathing/fresh air time on our patio daily. Obviously I will respectfully follow any set rules and schedules of clients needs and wants and provide the same love and care as if they were my own.

Cyan was great. When she came to meet the kitties they responded positively to her immediately. Her reports about the visits and photos let me know everything was going well. She called me when she had a concern about my older boy (not an emergency but her follow up with me was excellent.) Highly recommend!

About: I have been experienced with dog sitting since I was 15 for my neighbors. I have experience with labradors, german shepheds to maltese and chihuahua. I love to walk in the city, and the dogs do too!! I am always prepared for long walks and definitely love to do drop-in visits. The city is busy, and so are you. Your pups still need their steps in, and I am more than happy to do that whenever! My experience grew with local neighbors when I was 18 years old, and I am taking it to Rover now. I worked with the youngest of puppies and am very aware of the active stimulation they need, varying breeds. I have also taken care of senior dogs and am aware of bone issues and supervision needed. Full availability Mon and Weds 5-11 AM and 3 pm - 9 pm Tuesdays 5-9 AM and 12 pm - 9 pm Sat and Sun At the client's home, I value respect more than anything. I can focus on the schedule or routine you may leave for me, and make sure everything I need is in place. If something was about to run out, I would update you asap! My goal is to send updated pictures so you can be relaxed and trustful in your pet's health, safety and happiness more than anything.

Jennifer is both professional and warm. Our cat unfortunately hid out the whole time, but we trust that he'll grow comfortable with her as time passes -- he does this with everyone we have check in on him when we're not there. It just takes patience, and I feel that Jennifer has that in spades.

I would give Stephanie 10 stars if I could. She is incredibly sweet, thorough, and communicative. She leaves detailed cards about your pet’s visits and lots of pictures! She’s very good about the times of her visits and goes the extra mile. My kitty got a little sick from the stress and she took her to the vet twice for me and administered medications! I truly could not have asked for a better sitter.

Daisy has a friend! Ariadne G. was INCREDIBLE with our 8 pound little floof. Caring, loving, with a gentle willingness and openness to learning Daisy’s routines and quirky needs. Daisy, who can be shy and hide and look sad and flumped, or can be barky and anxious with others when we are away, was her free spirited, playful, and silly self under Ari’s care. Daisy ate well, showed Ari all of her tricks, and played toys. We were so happy with the daily reports and pictures of Daisy enjoying Ari’s company.
