“Outstanding care for my Beagle thank you so much!!! Nitasha was completely in tune with my dog’s needs, sent many photos and updates throughout the day, and exuded true compassion. Her dog Mowgli is also great! Full of energy but respected my senior guy and provided him his own personal space.”
“Neide provided daycare for my puppy who is a little nervous wreck. Neide sent videos and picture updates throughout the day! My puppy came back home happy and tired! Wonderful service and a very friendly person! Would recommend 10/10”
“I wish I had found Ninoska sooner!! From the very first message, she was incredibly responsive and kind. When I dropped off Barto, he instantly felt at ease with her — which says a lot. Throughout the day, she sent me photos and videos, and I could clearly see how happy and comfortable he was. That brought me so much peace of mind! Now I’m just so happy (and relieved!) to have found a safe, loving place where Barto feels truly cared for. Thank you so much, Ninoska, for all the love and attention — we will definitely be coming back always!”
“Tracy and Steve were absolutely wonderful with Coco! They went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and happy, and we loved receiving regular photo and video updates!!”
“Cooper loved her time over at Gabriela's house! We ended up picking her up later than expected, and her and her family was so sweet and understanding. We'll definitely be using her again!!”
“An amazing couple to take care of your pet! Hsin and Phil were very accommodating since I messed up and chose daycare instead of boarding. They still took care of my pup without any issues! I received daily updates and fun photos to keep me updated during my trip. I will absolutely book with them again and recommend them to any pet owner 😁😁”
“Excellent ! I run a mobile grooming buisness and I usually bring my pup with me. However, this day was cat day so I had to look for someone to host my 5 year old pitbull at momemts notice. I'm so happy Misty was able to host Ace. He did well with the others pups she was hosting. She sent me photos and keep me updated on how he was doing. 10 out of 10 I would recommend! I know pup can be a handful since he's a nervous pup.”
About: As a paw parent myself, I treat yours as if they are my own. I have two cockapoos that are well socialized, and loving. I have been a Rover parent, also have hired personal pet-sitters so know what I expect and what you should expect. I treat your pet as if they were my own. It takes patience and kindness - simple. I walk pets 3 times a day, 5am, 3pm, 9pm. They are fed either 1/2 times a day at your preference with snacks and treats in between. If you allow plain treats such as fruits, carrot sticks, Cheerios, etc. I am in the healthcare field, Pet CPR/First Aid certified and thankfully have not experience any medical emergencies. I live in an apartment surrounded by two parks, and within 10 mins of dog parks (at your preference). They are free to roam my apartment and allowed on furniture and my bed (at your preference).
“Klainer took great care of our two fur babies while we went to some events in NYC for the day. This was our first time having both dogs watched together, as our youngest is only 6 months old. I never had to ask for updates because Klainer provided continuous ones, which really put our minds at ease during the day. They came back to us loved and tired, making our night super easy. If you’re from out of town like we were, I highly recommend trusting her with your fur baby! Very clean apartment, too.”

About: Since a child, home has always been made complete with pets, and that is where a genuine love for animals began within me. I’ve been around different breads and ages, from shitzu to pit bull and puppies to seniors, which gave me a broader understanding in the proper care (feeding structure, walking/exercise, pet proofing environments, etc.) and comfort required for each individual pet. The years of experience that I’ve had with these incredible fur babies has led me to ultimately pursuing my passion in helping others care for theirs! I am currently working from home, leaving me with an overall open and flexible schedule. Pet daycare is available Monday-Friday until 6pm (weekends can be further discussed). Also, due to involvement with my home church, I do partake in group/classes from 7pm-10pm, Monday-Wednesday, for anyone interested in pet boarding availability. My home is a pet-proofed, cozy house with a spacious, fenced-in backyard, located near a park only a few minutes away walking distance. There aren’t any children nor any pets at home, creating plenty of space for your pet to safely and freely enjoy! While caring for your pets, I always prioritize following their set schedules as well, in regard to their feeding, exercise, potty, rest, and medication (if necessary). I want every owner to feel peace while they are away, so I make sure to provide consistent communication and photos/videos updates throughout the stay!
“Evelina saved the day by watching Luna for us while we were at a nearby concert. She was super communicative and sent a lot of pictures too! You can tell she really loves dogs! Definitely recommend!”
About: I can’t remember a time I haven’t had a pet. I’ve been ever stage of life with the animals I’ve had in my life and I thank them for that experience. I’m currently in the beginning stages of starting a secondhand clothing business along with taking on freelance graphic design and illustration projects so I’m lucky to have the flexibility make my own schedule Very pet friendly environment with lots of opportunities to socialize. Dog park in my neighborhood with lots of responsibilities per parents. We have crates snd pets beds for when our fur babies need alone time.
About: I have been a major dog lover since I was younger, when my mom and I rescued a retired greyhound. Ever since I have learned to crate, potty and leash train dogs of all sizes. During my time in university I pet and house sat for different families in my community providing undivided attention, daily walks and love from an animal lover who was in need of some pet time! I currently work 4 days a week with plenty of flexibility to change days of the week allowing for full attention during walks and check ins. With three days off I am happy to do longer walks and stays when possible! Providing a safe and comfortable environment is priority. With only one set of neighbors below our apartment and plenty of space inside and a park across the street, there is more than enough space and limited noise for your pets. When caring for pets in their own space I follow the clients guidelines and schedules to ensure pets are relaxed and maintain routine.
About: I have 2 dogs back home- poodle and golden, they are 6 years old. I have been with them since they were 2 months old, and they are healthy and happy until now! I’ll take care of yours like they are mine, so they’ll never feel lonely! I am currently working full time— usually 9-4pm, so by 4pm i’ll take dogs on walks and another night walk. For the weekend i am usually home and free, so i’ll play with the dogs and keep them and myself entertained :) Dogs are one of the most friendliest creatures, i treat them like a child as they are fragile. Cleanliness is also an important thing, so i’ll brush their hair, and keep them entertained.

Maisha T.Star Sitter
“I’ve used Mai for almost 2 years. Working in corrections brought us together but she has become family and my dog’s fur-aunty. My job is very demanding but she makes it easy to accommodate my last minute schedule/conferences/trainings, and follows my instructions/schedule to a T. When I travel it is a bonus she lives close to EWR. She sends updates with pictures 2x-day. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to leave my babies with. A few of my co-workers have been recommended to her and use her as well.”

Sridevi M.
“I am so happy to recommend Sridevi for Rover! Sridevi and her husband have taken wonderful care of my cat, Bree, on multiple occasions, and I’ve always felt completely at ease knowing she was in such loving and capable hands. They’ve known Bree for a long time and treat her as if she were their own, giving her lots of attention, playtime, and care. Sridevi and her husband are naturally great with animals—they are gentle, patient, and truly enjoy spending time with both cats and dogs. In addition to caring for my cat, they also have experience dog-sitting and have always shown comfort and friendliness with dogs as well. They have their own sweet cat, Leah, who is clearly well-loved and happy, which shows how responsible and thoughtful they are as pet owners. What I appreciate most is how much they enjoy playing with the pets they watch. They’re not just there to feed or check in—they truly engage and interact, making sure the animals feel loved and entertained. Any pet would be lucky to have Sridevi and her husband as sitters! I highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, kind, and fun pet caregivers.”

Sophia R.
“I always ask Sophie to stay at my place and take care of my cats whenever I go away and she always takes great care of them. I never have to feel guilty leaving my cats because I know they’re in perfect hands with Sophie. She showers them in love, plays with them until they’re exhausted, always follows my very detailed meal plan, and leaves my place impeccably clean when I come back. My cats adore Sophie and get so excited whenever she comes over, so I can’t recommend her enough! At this point she’s my cats’ godmother, and there’s very few people in my life I trust to take as good care of them as she does. I can’t recommend her enough :)”
