“We were delighted with Anica. She sent pics and videos and gave our sweet tomcat the best attention. We would love for Anica to look after our boy again when we are off on future travels! Thank you Anica! Marianne H.”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life. In college I worked for a local pet sitting agency and a doggy daycare. Animals bring me lots of joy as I’m sure they do for you! Right now I am living in an home and pet sitting for family friends, but I wanted to give this app a try! I work for a local nonprofit 4 minutes from my house with lots of flexibility! I am very available during the day for walks & bathroom breaks, in addition to day sitting or overnight sitting. We have a back and front unfenced yard that’s private on a very quiet road. I prefer to walk dogs 2-3 times daily. I understand the importance of a diet regimen, and I will take your dog’s normal eating and living habits seriously!!

“Blue and Deb are now best friends. Deb is both professional and caring. Blue enjoyed his time with Deb and we were able to enjoy a nice outing knowing that Deb was caring for Blue. Blue cannot wait to see Deb again.”

About: I have over 35 years of experience caring for dogs, having grown up with them and always been around them. I specialize in taking dogs on long walks and engaging them in play, making sure they get the exercise they need. I've cared for dogs belonging to neighbors, friends, family members, and other clients, which has broadened my experience with different breeds and personalities. I work part-time and care for my elderly father, which gives me a flexible schedule for dog walking and weekend pet sitting. I lead an active lifestyle and love taking dogs on long walks and playing with them to keep them happy and healthy. I provide a safe and comfortable environment for pets at their home. I follow their routines and ensure they feel secure and cared for. Keeping pets safe is my top priority, whether I’m walking them or watching them at home.

About: I'm a former dog walker and dog sitter in Brooklyn, NY (2+ years), sometimes working with up to 12 dogs a day, and then house sitting right after. I also volunteered for two years on the weekends as a dog walker at Sean Casey Animal Rescue. I'm currently seeking clients who need dog walking or dog sitting services on Long Island! I'm currently an organic farmer on the North Fork, which means I work seasonally, so once November comes around I'm free as a bird for all of your pet care needs until mid-late March! I've worked with puppies, elderly dogs, dogs with very specific diets, medication, vitamins, and even a few tough cookies who had difficult backgrounds. I'm open to it all. I'm a full time organic farmer from the months of April-October. Once November comes around my hours open up significantly, and by mid November I'm completely free until March. Like I would my own pet, with attention, care, love and following the exact specifications of the pups owner. I understand every dog is different and have very different personalities, so I try to cater to each dogs unique needs.

“Kyle was awesome. We have two big dogs. My Lab mix decided to be on his absolute WORST behavior when Kyle came for the meet and greet. I was a bit freaked out. Kyle however, maintained his calm, positive, easy going behavior and completely won our dog over. After the meet and greet I knew the drop ins would be fine. We're already planning on having Kyle back.”

“Julie was fantastic! She was communicative and made me feel super comfortable leaving my senior cat home for the week. She even took in the mail! Highly recommend, and would absolutely call her again to care for any of my pets. Thank you, Julie!”

About: We have loved working with Rover and pet sitting! Meeting so many nice people and their awesome pets! When we dog-sit, the dogs are treated with love and just like another member of our family. I am very responsive and respectful to the owners and pets needs, including schedules, treats, walks, medication, etc. We have a very large fenced in yard and a safe neighborhood for walks. We can accommodate crates, but do not require them. What ever makes you and your pup the most comfortable! I also have a gated in area in the house just for your dog so they are especially safe when I leave the house. We are a busy family but in the summer, I am home most of the time. We have our super friendly dog Fellini., so typically a new visitor, just jumps right in and Fellini shows them the ropes. As a teacher I’m off all weekends, holidays, summer and during the school year, someone is always home by 3, leaving lots of time for the doggies. I will do whatever you request and/or are comfortable with as the owner, leaving the pet out during the day or crating. Whatever you think is best! I've even had dogs on a scheduled nap time :) open communication here is important! I will ALWAYS send photos but usually do this via text as the app is a bit burdensome.
