“Arlene was fantastic with my senior dog. She cared for my fur baby over a weekend. She is extremely caring and attentive to the individual needs of the dog. I felt at ease as she provided detailed updates on each visit. Will most definitely book her again! Reliable and professional, you can't go wrong!”

“Julia did a fantastic job with my cat! She spent ample amount of time letting him warm up to her and did a great job making sure my house was clean. Highly recommend her!”
6. Frank B.
“Frank worked really well with our two cats and dog. He shared photos and let us know how they were doing. I felt entirely comfortable knowing that Frank visited them as per our agreed schedule and looked out for them. Frank was able to extend his booking when we ran into flight issues and I am very appreciative. If Frank is available when we go away again, I would definitely ask him to pet sit for us.”
7. Gabby G.
“Gabby really loves my senior, special need Min Pins. She often texts me and asks how they are doing even on her days off. Gabby has gone above and beyond to complete scheduled drop in visits for my girls even if there was a winter snow storm the night before! I feel very comfortable with Gabby entering my home on an almost daily basis during this difficult time of Covid precautions. All my interactions with Gabby have been pleasant and supportive of my furbaby's needs. I could give no higher recommendation...”
8. Alexis G.
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs for 14 years as well as doing local pet-sitting for neighbors and friends. I have personally owned 4 dogs through my life, 3 from puppyhood. I am familiar with care for seniors and puppies, and have cared for dogs with chronic conditions like allergies, diabetes, or arthritis. I am not afraid to clean up any messes! I own a 8-year old puppy of my own, an airedale, which if you know the breed, you know that that speaks for itself! I have seen it all with him, as the most stubborn creature on this planet. I would love to care for your pets! I am a dog person through and through! I’m a college student here in LI at Stony Brook University. I’m in my third year and have a car so transportation is of no issue. I have a lot of free time and during the weekends I am 100% available for any needs your pet might have. Please let me know the normal routine that you and your pet have! I will do everything in my power to make them feel as comfortable as possible with me. Just tell me any feeding schedules, medication needs, favorite toys, or treats and I will make sure to tailor an experience just for you and your pet.
9. Ashley M.
“Ashley is very responsible especially when it comes to taking care of and loving dogs. Whenever I go out of town, she's the first person I ask to watch my dog so I know for a fact that she's in good hands. She not only takes care of my dog (feeding, walking), but she also stays with her for a little bit to give her treat, belly rubs, and to keep her company so she's not alone. Ashley never fails to provide great care for my dog and making her feel loved”
10. Aurora J.
“Aurora took wonderful care of my cat Greta while I was away for 5 days. She did two visits a day. I will definitely be asking her to watch over my Greta again in the future!”
11. Brianna S.
“Brianna was very responsive, easy to communicate with and provided great updates during her visit. We will definitely use her to help with Gigi again.”
12. Jennifer S.
About: I’ve taken care of any type of animal since I was little, from neighbors to family to friends. Animals just love me, I love being around them. Anytime I am available, I can do weekends and during the week too. Earliest I will do is 7am if it’s a during day sit, At the customers house I will always treat animals like they are my own, I will always help where is needed. I will always make sure animals are safe.
13. Kaia M.
“Kaia watched my dog Bailey for me while i was gone for a weekend. Bailey isn’t usually fond of new people but surprisingly she loved kaia . I knew she was in great hands. I keep Bailey on a pretty strict diet and kaia managed to follow it. If you need someone to watch your pet I highly recommend kaia.”
14. Jason C.
“If you are looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter, Jason is the right choice. Our dog, Leon, always feels comfortable and enjoys his walks and stays at Jason's place! He treats Leon like his own dog and is very patient and understanding. Jason is also a super reliable and quick communicator. If there are any questions about any instructions for care or drop-off, he is quick to respond! Additionally, he is great with sending photos and video updates throughout the day to let us know what Leon is up to as well! I would highly recommend Jason as a dogsitter and will continue to rebook whenever we are away:)”
15. Charlotte W.
“Charlotte has been our dog walker and pet sitter since she was in high school. She is responsible , friendly and absolutely loves dogs ! My dogs are happy to see her and I know they will be well taken care of. Highly recommend !”
16. Asher W.
“Asher is great with dogs. I have two and always ask him to watch them whenever I’m on an extended trip. He takes great care of my dogs and they’re always happy to see him. He walks my dogs often and usually takes them on different routes each time to change things up, my dogs love exploring the neighborhood with him. He is also very careful with my dogs, making sure that they don’t get into any trouble or eat anything off the ground. I definitely recommend Asher to be a dog walker, he will do great.”
17. Cara D.
“Cara has been wonderful! I had problems with another pet sitter (not from Rover), and I was a bit worried. But from our very first interaction I knew this would be different. Cara is very quick to respond to messages, even last minute texts from a first time user! My cat Moo can be a bit grumpy, but Cara hit it off with her from our first 'meet and greet'. I'll even admit to being a bit jealous seeing her wait by the door at Cara's usual time! She went above and beyond the week I was away, cleaning up a mess Moo had made, as well as the area around her food bowls. Every day she sent pictures showing Moo eating, and being grumpy, and her clean litter box. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Cara, and Moo and I look forward to seeing her again!”
18. Jess P.
“Jess took care of my pup Leia while I was away for the day at a baseball game and sent me update photos each visit and some comments on how the visit went. Leia had a lot of fun. Will definitely use Jess again!”
19. Brittany L.
“I used Brittany to care for my cats and I’m always happy with the extra TLC she gives them. Going away can be stressful, but it’s so much easier when you know your furbabies are in good hands. Definitely recommend!”
20. Gianna S.
“Gianna has sitted for my babies multiple times. I trust her completely. She’s gone out of her way to help me with the dogs and things at my home while I was away. So glad I found her!”
