Sophia was fantastic. She sent lots of pics and updates while taking care of my dog. She even took him for four walks in one day! Four walks! I think my dog had a better vacation than I did. I highly recommend Sophia.

Madeline the best dogsitter I’ve ever had. My pup, Piglet, is slow to warm up and incredibly anxious and Madeline went above and beyond to meet Piglet on her terms and make her comfortable. They quickly became best friends. Madeline was super communicative with me, sending updates and pictures and you could tell she truly loved Piglet even though it was her first time watching her. She also did great at walking her, giving her meals twice a day and her complex array of medications. And she left my house cleaner and nicer than I left it for her. I cannot recommend Madeline enough.

Jay stayed with my dog Lucy while I went on a business trip across the country and she was so wonderful with my sweet old girl. She was very curious about Lucy’s needs and communicated with me and shared some pictures along the way. I came home to a happy dog and I’m so grateful to Jay for taking such good care of her!

I cannot begin to say how much we have appreciated the care provided by Sara. Her timely communication with human owners as well as feline care skills are second to none. We highly recommend her as a house sitter/cat sitter should you ever need such support!

Renee was great, checking in with questions when needed. One of my dogs is more needy and she let me know so I could offer suggestions. I've invited her to come back and she said yes, so that's a good sign!

Lynne was amazing! She stayed at our house in July while we were traveling for a week. This was the first time for us to leave our puppy overnight, so needless to say, we were a bit worried about how our 13-month-old pup would do without us. Lynne immediately put both the dog and us at ease. Throughout the week, she sent us pictures and quick updates. We met up with Lynne again a few days after our trip and the dog was super happy to see her. We will definitely reach out to her again when we need somebody to watch our dog.

About: Animals have always been the center of my world, from growing up with pets to pet-sitting countless dogs and cats across NYC. My two cats, August and Ivy, are the absolute loves of my life - My goal is simple: to provide your beloved pets with the exact same high standard of care, safety, and affection that my own two companions receive at home. I work in the office 3 days a week, but I have an hour for lunch and live only 7 min from my office. If close enough I will be able to check in midday as well as morning and after work. I have a fenced yard, though my cats are indoor only I have taken care of my neighbors dogs and enjoy playing fletch for round after round after round. I am organized and will have notes based on what you need for each drop in, will supply pictures, be there on time and stay the whole time. Having used rover myself I know how integral these things are!

I highly recommend Hannah! She stayed at my house for a week and took excellent care of my dogs while I was away. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and responsible hands. She kept me updated, followed all instructions, and treated my dogs like they were her own. When I came home, my dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. The house was also in great condition. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I will definitely be booking her again in the future. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely great with animals, I would absolutely recommend her!

Sydney is amazing!!! We have two high energy / high anxiety Boston Terriers and two very social cats - she was great with all of them! She sent adorable pictures, checked in often, sent lots of updates. The dogs clearly had a good time, the house is exactly as we left it, she was prompt, professional, and kind... Literally all the things you are looking for when you're leaving your pets home with someone for days. We'll definitely book her again any time we need someone to stay at the house!!

About: Longtime dog lover and owner, current parent of a 9-year-old Siberian Husky service dog whom I trained to myself. I love dogs of all sizes and shapes and personalities and I can't wait to meet all the wonderful furkids that I'll be looking after in the future. I'm always telling people "I may have trouble remembering your name, but I will always remember your pet's name." Though I am small in stature I'm actually quite strong and can handle large/muscular dogs (and the occasional feral cat when necessary), because I just know how to move with them/guide them. I'm also not intimidated by aggressive behavior in animals, nor do I meet it with aggression in return. I always try to calm the animal and figure out the issue, putting myself between them and anyone/anything that might upset them further. I have a personality/presence that dogs seem to love, from the timid to the social, the calm to the active. I'm a fast walker, so your dog will certainly get a workout they'll love as they keep pace with me, but I can also meander when needed for the older dogs and fumbling puppies. I have experience doing basic grooming for dogs: bathing, brushing, shaving away mats, clipping nails, trimming the fur between pawpads, brushing teeth, and cleaning ears. I do not have experience doing "style" cuts for dogs. I know snake pet care as well, so feel free to inquire if you need someone to look after your danger noodle! Pet care is my primary work focus right now as I work through completing my online schooling towards getting my degree and Vet Tech licence. I have a backyard for your dog to play in alongside my very friendly Husky. It's not fenced in, but I keep a spare long-lead on-hand, same kind as I use for my girl, for guest dogs. If your dog is an especially strong one please let me know and I'll make sure to have an lead appropriate for your dogs weight strength available. Inside the house is dog-friendly and spacious, and I can crate your dog if needed. My dog is allowed on the couch and my bed, so do let me know if those are no-go areas for your dog. If your cat likes outside time I can provide walks and/or put them out in the backyard on the spare long-lead.

About: I excel at making dogs feel calm and like their owners never even left the house. Learning their schedules, quirks, and favorite walking spots helps me make them feel comfortable for extended stays. Energetic puppy? I’ll run around w them and tire them out. Senior dog? We can relax and go at their pace. What sets me apart is my intuition and caring heart. I have a flexible, remote job so I am able to stay with your pet as long as needed through the day and take them on frequent walks in the neighborhood good or to the dog park! I do live-in dogsitting/housesitting at the client’s house. I like to learn about your dog (how they like to play, chill, etc..) so I can make them feel as comfortable as possible.

Stephanie is our first choice for a sitter when it comes to our dog Gatsby. She consistently provides him with excellent care while we are away and keeps us updated with daily pictures. She goes above and beyond as she helped us with some other requests around the house while we were gone, and Gatsby always enjoys spending time with her. Thanks Stephanie!

We received detailed updates and pictures while we were gone. Our dog seemed very content. Our house was just as we left it when we returned. We plan to rebook with Sami, and we definitely recommend Sami!

What an absolute gem Hilary is! She stayed in our home with our elderly dog, Islay, for 12 days, including several days of a July heat wave. She provided empathetic, thoughtful care throughout, creatively problem-solved to help Islay get comfortable in the heat, administered daily meds (plus some extras to help keep Islay calm during July 4th fireworks), sent regular updates and photos, and stayed attuned to Islay’s signals and needs. We are very thankful to have found Hilary for our trip to visit family abroad, and we came home to a happy, healthy, and relaxed girl, plus a very tidy house (not necessary but always appreciated). Thank you so much, Hilary! Islay misses you already.

Tiffany was an amazing caretaker for our two cats and two dogs while we were away for a week. She was communicative, sent lots of photos, and truly got to know our pets. She followed their routine and made them feel safe and happy. She comforted the nervous pups through fireworks AND thunder in one night (the horror!!!) and left the house super tidy. We definitely hope to have her back!

We had to leave town unexpectedly, and Jenna jumped in to help us on very short notice, which we were incredibly grateful for. Our dog Jun is a pretty anxious boy, so we were definitely nervous leaving him with someone without all of us meeting in person first, but Jenna immediately made us feel comfortable. She was super responsive, communicative, and thoughtful the whole time. Jun looked relaxed and comfy in the photos she sent, which really eased a lot of our stress while we were away. When we got back, he looked happy, healthy, and very well taken care of. Really grateful for how quickly she stepped in and took such great care of our furry boy. We’d absolutely book with her again.
