“Exceptionally detailed in her reports and clearly an animal lover! We feel so much better knowing Greeshma is the one tending to our cat while we’re away!”

“Emily‘s service was great! She took good care of our cat and our home while we were away. Very communicative and caring with our shy kitty. I wholeheartedly recommend her services. Thank you so much for going the extra mile and ensuring our cat was well taken care of.”

“Cece is dependable and kind. My cat is 13 years old so I don’t like to leave him but I have a life that includes occasional traveling. I feel he is safe and secure with Cece.”

About: I have worked with guiding eyes for the blind foster puppies and in a dog daycare. I love dogs and am comfortable with any size, age or breed. I am happy to bring tail wags to your dogs when you need help! I am currently working remotely and part time so have a very flexible schedule. I am around most days and can be free morning, afternoon or evening! I aim to provide safe care to all pets. I am happy to walk on or off leash. I have no other pets in the home so all my attention will go to yours!
“Gloria did such a wonderful job looking after our boy Cheddar. She was very thoughtful and attentive and went above and beyond her duty for doing drop in visits. We had about a foot of snow and she shoveled our driveway and walkway which was so thoughtful and we hadn’t expected her to do that since she was just doing drop in visits and no house sitting. We highly recommend Gloria as a pet sitter!”

“Candice was the sweetest pet sitter for our cat! She was patient with him and communicative with us throughout the time we were away. We would definitely rebook her in the future!”

“Marie is wonderful and wonderful to work with. She loves the animals; they love her. She’s dependable and communicative and every bit as good a fur mom as I am for my dogs and cat.”

About: I've been around pets since I was a kid. I've had dogs, cats, and even rabbits. I wanted to be a Vet growing up and my family members always saw me as 'the animal lover.' One day I see myself owning all kinds of animals, but right now I want to take care of yours! I'm a very kind, playful, and personable guy who can show lots of love and form a bond with your pets. I currently own a 4-year-old cat and plan on getting another dog/cat very soon! I just moved to Yorktown Heights and I love how much space I have in my backyard (perfect for your dog to run around and play around). I work part-time and go to school full-time so my schedule is loaded but I'm a very flexible person and would love to make time for your pet the same way I make time for mine. I make sure all doors/windows are locked unless supervised. If outside, I will block off any potential escape routes and have them leashed or harnessed at all times unless told not to in certain situations. Lastly, I will NEVER leave any pet unsupervised. If I'm at your home I will of course abide to your instructions and preferences.
“Adrian dropped in for visits with our cat, Rusty, for one week. Rusty is a very fearful cat but seemed to feel comfortable to come for his meals with Adrian there. We loved receiving all the photos of our little guy and notes about how the visits had gone. Thanks for a good experience.”
About: I am a licensed veterinary technician with prior experience working at an emergency veterinary hospital. If your pet needs medications administered or has special needs, I am able to care for them. I have been pet sitting for friends and family for many years and have cared for cats and dogs of various breeds. Currently, I live with a Boxer, a Miniature Poodle, and a white Turkish Van breed cat. I will make sure that your pets are comfortable and have a good experience while you are away. I am working on starting a dog grooming business from my home, so I can adjust my schedule to be available for your pet. Your pet's normal schedule of feeding, walks, and medication administration is important, so I like to stick to that as closely as possible. I can stay overnight at your home if that is preferred, or I can come over early in the morning to take care of your pet. I will always leash walk your dog unless you give specific instructions for your dog's activity.
“Stacy was wonderful. Checked on our cats at the agreed upon times and sent lots of pictures and updates. She made our first Rover experience stress free. Would use again and recommend.”

“I highly recommend Nicole. She took care of my 3 cats while away for 1 week. She made sure they were all fed and well cared for- sending me video updates. By accident my cleaning lady let them out but Nicole made sure they all came safely home. When I arrived home the place was spotless.”


About: I've been around dogs all my life and I'm a big advocate for the bully breeds. I know how to hold a big strong dog that just wants to say hello. I can keep a steady pace for walks and hold tightly for random pass-by animals. Keeping commands firm and using the proper commands when the unexpected happens is something I excel in because of my experience of working with children. Fifteen plus years working with children ranging from the ages 3-11. I know a dog is part of the family, I have 2 of my own (a cat too!). I've had 10 plus in pet care and 20 plus years in pet ownership. Let me care for your fur-baby. My schedule is very clear for any pet care needs. I was working part time but now I’m looking for pet care as my job. I’m very watchful and observant from years of child care and from my own pets, I want the pets to be safe all the time.
About: I currently own 3 Daschunds and a cat! All three dogs I’ve trained since 10 weeks old ! Soon to be a an empty nester as my kids are both off to college next week and have time to share my time with your fur babies. I’m a teacher and follow the school calendar. I’m available evenings and weekends for drop in visits to feed, walk, play and admin meds if necessary. One of my dogs has Lyme’s disease so familiar with giving meds. I am available to come to your house to care for your pets for drop in visits evenings and weekends for 30 min intervals or more on an as needed basis.
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. I have dealt with kittens/puppies, adults and seniors. Gave meds, washed, groomed and trained them. Large dogs and pitbulls are my favorites. I also had a house rabbit for 9 years. My pets had long happy lives I have a part time job, so my schedule is flexible. With enough lead time, I can swap my shift and be available whenever I am needed. I can care for pets in their own home. The pets are happier and less stressed when they are at home. Pets should say home whenever possible.

About: I grew up with many animals. I had a dog, a cat and three parakeets, who I had taken care of since I was 10 years old. I did everything from walking them, to bathing them, to feeding them, to training them. When I wasn’t at home with my small dog, I was at my best friend’s house walking and playing with her three large dogs; including an Irish Wolfhound and Great Dane. While I’m at college away from all my babies, my roommates and I love to foster various cats and dogs in our free time. And I unfortunately fall in love with every single one of them making it really hard to bring them back. Ultimately, I’m a big softy for animals with some serious dog mom and dog “aunty” experience. I am a pretty busy bee but generally in the mornings, in between classes, and at night I’m free to take care of your fur babies. I will take care of your fur baby according to how you would like with a level of attentiveness as if they were my own.

Shrub Oak cat parents share their Rover experiences
Being my first time using Rover, I was pleased to find the sitter locator map to help me connect with someone close to me. Daniella was perfect! She tended to our cats while we were gone for a week and was prompt, professional and courteous, sending us photos and status reports with each visit she made. We returned home to find the cats happy and well cared for.

I cannot recommend Victoria enough! She was so wonderful with my cat. My cat is usually very shy around people she doesn't know so I was shocked to see pictures that Victoria sent me of her petting my cat or sitting with her! She clearly has the magic touch. She also dealt with her own emergency one day and still found a way to do a check in. I am so appreciative and will definitely use Victoria again!
