About: Hello! My name is Alena, and working with animals is my true passion. I have extensive experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds, as well as an invaluable background working in the veterinary department of an animal center. I am also Fear Free trained, which means I use specialized techniques to prevent and alleviate fear, anxiety, and stress in pets. This experience allows me to understand dog behavior deeply and handle pets with special needs, anxiety, or high energy. At home, I have a cat named Amber who prefers not to live with dogs. Because of this, my home boarding is exclusively open to foster cats. I am happy to offer walking, drop-in visits and pet sitting. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to fully adapt to your pet's established routine. Whether it’s maintaining a strict feeding schedule, timely medication administration, or structured walks, I ensure their day looks exactly like it does when you are home. Keeping a consistent routine is key to minimizing stress. Safety is my top priority. Thanks to my experience in a veterinary shelter department and Fear Free training I create a secure environment for every pet. I strictly follow all care instructions, and keep a close eye on their well-being. I am fully confident in administering medications and maintaining emergency protocols if needed.

About: I’ve always been a big animal lover and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just giving them attention and care. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m available for walks every day as well as pet sitting during the week. I’m flexible and can adjust to your pet’s schedule and needs. I provide a quiet, calm, and safe environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow their usual routine closely, including feeding, playtime, and litter care, and always respect their space and personality.

“Always great to have Daniela visit our two cats, who love to see her. She provides them their ‘evening’ treats and spends time to love them up when we are away. It’s a great comfort to have Dani visit and ensure all is well when we are away.”

About: I have grown up around dogs and have always loved being around them. I regularly help walk and spend time with my friends’ dogs, and I truly enjoy taking them out for walks or runs. I am very active and enjoy exercising, so I am a great match for dogs that need energy and movement. I am patient, attentive, and always make sure dogs feel safe and comfortable during walks. I’m currently available on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays from 6 AM to 3 PM. I’m a college student with a part time job, so my schedule may vary slightly, but I always communicate in advance and do my best to stay flexible and reliable. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I pay close attention to details like secure leashing, surroundings, and your pet’s behavior at all times. I carefully follow all care instructions and routines to keep things consistent and stress free. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every home and pet with respect, patience, and care.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve cared for everything from Chihuahuas and cats to rabbits, goats, and chickens, so I’m very comfortable around pets with all kinds of personalities and needs. I’m dependable, patient, and take pet safety very seriously. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I always aim to provide thoughtful updates, lots of attention, and a calm, loving environment while you’re away. I’m available for drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends depending on scheduling needs. I’m very reliable, communicative, and attentive, and I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I know how important peace of mind is, so I do my best to provide thoughtful care and updates every step of the way. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment. I know every animal has different needs and routines, so I pay close attention to instructions, behaviors, and comfort levels while caring for them. I’m respectful of clients’ homes, and take safety very seriously at all times. I also love sending updates and photos so pet parents can feel connected and reassured while they’re away.

“Leslie is GREAT!! I was really worried because I have 2 rescues that are super sweet and needy. He even came to meet them the day before, and they loved him. He sent pics and all, I'll def use him again!”

“We found Gia to be very caring and attentive to our cat. She regularly sent us updates, and we appreciated her kind and gentle manner - it is clear she loves animals. Thanks so much!”

About: I’ve been taking care of cats when I was teenagers. My first cat was 17 years old. I just got my new cat, I bought everything for my cat. I am good with keeping everything as clean as possible, vacuum everyday. I also have experience taking care of small dogs. I took care of my step daughter's two Yorkshire Terrier dogs when she was travelling, One of them is more than 10 years old. I fed the dogs and clean the dog's face, comb their hair, play with them. It was fun time. They like me more than my husband, haha. I’m free after work, I work at Wall street Manhattan, living near Fort Lee NJ. I will be available after work Monday to Friday, weekends will be more flexible. I bought everything automatic for my cat. The automatic litter box, I clean it every day. Water fountain has filter, I wash and change the water every 3 to 4 days with boiled water (cooling down) due to my cat only has one kidney. Cat food, I feed him with wet can food twice a day and with dry food automatic feeding. I mix different cat food due to his sensitive stomach.

About: I’m a very patient and understanding individual, especially with dogs who may need extra time to feel comfortable. We have a rescue dog with a difficult past who doesn’t always feel safe in new environments or around unfamiliar people or dogs, so we truly understand how important it is to find the right fit. That’s actually what inspired me to start Rover, to provide a safe and secure space for dogs like her. I have experience as a dog foster with rescue dogs and those who may be a bit nervous or shy. I have a separate floor in my home where your dog can have a quiet space to decompress and feel comfortable during their stay. Because my dog is territorial and does not get along with other dogs, I will keep her completely separated from your dog. Also have a nice fenced in yard where they can around and play. I would love the opportunity to watch and care for your furry family member :) I work from home full-time in IT, so I’m around all day to keep your dog company. They’ll get enough attention, potty breaks, and won’t be left alone for long periods I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of space for your dog to run and play. Inside, I have a finished basement with windows where they can relax and keep me company. This setup allows me to comfortably separate your dog from my dog and kid , ensuring a safe and stress-free environment.

“Communicative and thoughtful! I got so many photos of my cat and she was always on time! Will definitely book her again!”

“Melissa always takes great care of our kitties while we are away. She is very communicative and super nice!”

About: I’ve taken care of my own and other friends’ pets for several years. I take the time to get to know the pets I work with including what is healthy/enjoyable for them to eat and what activities they enjoy (ex: walks or play with pets). I’ve especially had practice with caring for energetic pets/ puppies. I work part-time as a medical assistant at a derm office, where I work 2-3 days a week. I have a flexible schedule if informed in advance. In caring for pets, I ensure that pets feel both love and comfortable in the environment that they are in whether that be by providing entertainment, lots of love, and a consistent routine. I always follow the rules and routines set forth by pets owners as they are the ones that know their pets the best and what will make their pet happy.

About: Hi my name is Elle. I am an animal lover, advocate, and a volunteer at a local animal shelter. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and have had a natural affinity for all kinds of animals. I have boarded dogs for both short-term and long-term stays (months to years). I understand the unique needs of different breeds and adjust care accordingly. I understand dog behavior, and needs-your dog is family, and I treat them as such. Full-Time, Dog Care - A Safe, Loving Home for Your Dog. Dog boarding is my full-time work and passion —caring for dogs is not a side job but a choice l've committed to for years. I provide round-the-clock care, ensuring every dog in my home is safe, happy, and well-cared for. I board a maximum of 1 dog at a time. My own dog is calm, friendly, and never interfere with your dog's care. All walks are on-leash, and I do not socialize your dog with outside dogs or humans unless instructed. Photo updates at least 3 times daily - so you can feel connected to your dog while you're away. I strictly follow your instructions, including feeding schedules, play preferences, and routines and only feed the food you provide, ensuring your dog's diet remains consistent.

About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m 25 and a full time model with some free time to walk and hang with your pets! I’ve grown up surrounded by animals—tortoises, chickens, hedgehogs, dogs, cats—you name it. My family and I fostered over 200 animals through our local shelter, and I’ve continued fostering and caring for pets on my own. I have hands-on experience with puppies, kittens, seniors, pregnant and special-needs animals, and those with unique behaviors. I truly love animals, and since I travel for work and can’t have one of my own right now, pet sitting and walking gives me the joy of being around them. I recently moved to New York and would love to help care for your pets as if they were my own. I’m currently living in West Village. I am from Dallas, Texas. I have a huge family I love. I am a full time model. I’m 25. I love you to hike, cook, walk dogs at my local rescue, work out, hang with friends (pretty basic I know). I have an apartment I share with two of my other girlfriends. There is a separate living room and kitchen so it’s not too small. For the most part they’ll be with me full time. Wherever I go, they go with me. If that’s on the bed, floor, bathroom car, you name it!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 6 years — from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs. I’m patient, loving, and always attentive to each dog’s personality and comfort. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I make sure every pup feels happy, safe, and loved. I also have experience walking dogs of different sizes and temperaments, and I’m comfortable with basic care routines and giving oral medication when needed. I work from home full-time and have a very flexible schedule. My work is light and meeting-free most of the day, so I’m home almost all the time. I take regular breaks to walk dogs and spend quality time with them — giving your pets plenty of attention, play, and care throughout the day. I live in a spacious 3B3B apartment that’s quiet, clean, and pet-friendly with my husband. Even though it’s an apartment, there’s plenty of space for pets to move around safely and comfortably. I always keep doors and windows secured, monitor pets closely, and follow each owner’s care instructions carefully — including feeding schedules, walks, and medication if needed. For safety, I never leave dogs unattended outdoors and ensure cats stay in secure indoor areas. We’re just an 8-minute walk from a beautiful dog park and a riverside trail, perfect for safe, relaxing walks and playtime. I also send regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy, loved, and well cared for.
