“Carolina was great with our cat while we were away! We got lots of photos and updates and she was very responsive when we had questions. Would definitely book again!”
“Chloe is amazing! My super shy cat warmed up to her and was waiting for her at the door by the end of her visit. I would recommend her 10/10 to anyone. She provided peace of mind and was thorough with her photos and communication. Thank you Chloe!!”
“Peter was very attentive with Meeko making sure his needs were taken care of! I received lots of updates and pics which made me feel reassured Meeko was in good hands. Thank you!”
About: My partner and I live in Astoria with our dog Inky! We fostered a dog for 2 months and miss having a 2nd dog around! Currently we don't have time for a full time 2nd dog but would love to go on walks/ board other dogs with our 4 year old Inky. Both Steven and I have fostered dogs individually and together and we understand the priceless feeling of a worry-free boarding experience for dog parents! We feel that caring for other people's pet children is a true honor! I'm working part time and my partner Steven WFH some days. We go to the park most weekend mornings and like to spend the entire day with the dog(s). Whether it is at home snuggling on the couch, or at a dog-friendly coffee shop. We make sure to not leave small items (ex. airpods) laying around, garbage is thrown away, and the apartment is very much baby/dog-proofed in general.
About: Animals are the center of my universe. I grew up with animals of all kinds; cats, dogs, bunnies, hamsters, birds, fish, ferrets. I’m currently a mom to a female golden retriever, two beautiful ferret daughters and a baby boy bird. I hope to retire one day and own an animal rescue farm. I believe it is our job as humans to give all sentient beings the absolute best love and care and to make sure they feel safe. I am keen to make sure wildlife is safe wherever possible. I’ll pull over on the side of the road to help turtles cross to the other side of the reservoir. On a daily basis I will prioritize every animal from the moment I wake up. I can and will do it all. Feeding, cleaning, walking, playing, giving them love and attention. As I mentioned above, animals are the center of my universe. I want each and every animal to trust me and feel safe with me while under my care.
“Lorenzo did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Lacey! He came over for a few hours, took her on a nice walk, played with her, and made sure she was comfortable and happy the entire time. It was clear that Lacey felt at ease with him, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I’d absolutely recommend Lorenzo to anyone looking for a responsible and caring dog sitter!”
“I cannot express enough how thankful I am for Carly’s outstanding service in taking care of Cue by letting him out twice a day and walking him. Her reliability is truly commendable; I can always trust that she will be there on time, which is incredibly reassuring for me as a pet owner. Carly’s communication skills are just as impressive, she consistently provides me with updates about Cue’s walks and shares any noteworthy observations, which makes me feel more connected to his daily activities. It’s evident that she genuinely cares about Cue’s happiness and well-being, treating him as if he were her own. I wholeheartedly recommend Carly to anyone in search of a trustworthy, dependable, and communicative pet caregiver”
“Fionnuala is as always, a life saver. She makes herself available, even on the shortest of notice. My dog is a high energy, jumping handful. But she's great with him! I'm so appreciative of when she's able to stop in and care for my fur baby.”
About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 10 when I got my dog. I joined Rover 6 months ago and have experience walking, feeding, playing with, and caring for various types of dogs. I care for every dog as if they're my own! I just got home from college and am looking to make some money as I take a remote class this summer. That being said, my schedule is pretty open and flexible! I am very respectful of other's spaces and make sure to follow instructions carefully. I pay attention to detail and am a high energy individual. I truly love dogs so much and am happy to help take care of them when owners' lives get busy.
About: Lifelong animal lover with experience from pups, kittens to senior dogs and even more recently deaf pets. Was raised with cats, dogs, and even reptiles. Pet care fits naturally into my life. Recently lost my 13yr old senior frenchie. I do work full-time weekdays but am available for evening feedings, walks, and weekend care. My 12 yr old son may be with me many times as this is also his passion. Whether in my home or yours, your pet’s comfort and safety come first. In my home, while space is modest, I offer a clean, cozy environment with a secure fenced-in yard for play and potty breaks. I'm attentive and patient. I also have a 12 yr old son who can keep your pet active if needed. My son actively entertained our frenchie and provided those extra special hugs. There will always be room for love and play. In your home, I follow your pet's routine closely to keep them calm and happy while you're away.
“Alyssa was very professional to work with. We loved receiving her daily messages regarding our cat’s care and pics of him. She demonstrates excellent communication skills and was respectful in terms of interacting with our cat. Would definitely recommend her for drop in cat care visits and look forward to working with her in the future !”
About: Love both dogs and cats. I do not have “professional” experience, but have owned dogs my entire life. My last dog passed away 2 years ago from cancer and I miss having a furry friend, so would enjoy taking care of yours. My entire family loves animals, so your pet will be well loved and cared for. I do have children, so the dogs or cats I would be able to board will have to be child friendly pets. I have experience with large dogs, pit bulls, mastiffs and small dogs, Pomeranians. I also understand the anxiety pets go through when separated from their owners, so I will make sure to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible. Basically care for your dog as I would want my dog cared for.
“Helene is awesome. I heard her on my ring cameras talking to my pups, and could immediately tell she’s a true animal lover. She followed my instructions and sent several great photos. We will most definitely be repeat customers!”
“Danae did a great job with our skittish, young puppy for a last minute sit. We so appreciate her flexibility and persistence with our dog, who has not had a lot of experience with sitters. Highly recommend—she communicated with is throughout her time with Tib and we so appreciate her!!”
About: Hello fellow dog people! I have over 5 years worth of experience caring for and training dogs. Even though this app mainly focuses on the walking and sitting aspect, I take the liberty of also focusing in on teaching/reinforcing basic commands every dog should know, as well as behaviors that are welcomed, and teaching what behaviors are not welcomed. Positive reinforcement is the name of the game when it comes to dogs and what sets me apart from other sitters you ask? Well, the triple C’s, that’s what. Gotta be Calm, Cool, and Collected ;) I’m currently working full time and no longer am an active Rover Walker/Sitter. I’m only available Tuesday-Thursday before 2PM and the occasional Saturday or Sunday mornings. I keep awareness of the pet’s food/water intake, whereabouts, any health concerns and their mood as well. I respect whoever’s space I am in as well as the pet’s space. I try my best to live by the golden rule said by Jesus The Christ: “So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you”.
About: Having had two cherished pets throughout my childhood, I've always had a strong bond with animals. Plus, my boyfriend has five pets that I adore. From feeding and playtime to walks and snuggles, I have years of experience caring for all kinds of animals. Your pets will feel loved and well cared for with me! I am available all throughout the week! I am currently still looking for a part-time summer job, so I have plenty of time to care and love your pets at what ever time of day you need. I have taken care of dogs in all different environments, whether that be a fenced yard, crate training, electronic fence, etc. Whatever environment your pet is in I am willing to adapt to!

Erisa S.
“Erisa is my real life "Dog Whisperer". I have never seen her not a love a dog she saw, and I've never seen a dog that didn't love her. It's easy to tell that her love of dogs is real because I have yet to hear a single complaint about the dogs she's fostered and taken care of. Honestly, sometimes I wonder who enjoys going on the walk more, the dog, or her! If you're looking for someone to love and care for your dog as much as you do, I can't imagine a better person to choose than Erisa.”
Lynda L.
“I have known Lynda a long time. We call her “Ellie Mae Clampett”. She is truly the most involved caregiver for animals I have yet to encounter in my 60+ years. Lynda has taken care of our 2 golden retrievers until these two dogs were 16 and 17 years old. She frequently involved herself with our English Shepard and now with our newer golden. A dedicated animal lover to the core. Lynda has also cared for an Eclectus parrot that was in our home for several years. That bird was very hard for anyone to get close to…Lynda did and handled him easily and with his permission. If there is anyone I would have in my home to responsibly take care of my animals…Lynda is a first choice always. Trustworthy and sincere should be her middle names.”

She fed, walked, and played with my dog while I was out of the house. I am so grateful that I was able to leave the care of my dog in such great hands!”
Joeyann M.
“I’m writing this letter as a proud mother to share just deeply my daughter, JoeyAnn Morales connects with animals and why I believe she would be a wonderful pet sitter or walker through Rover. From the time she was a little girl, She has shown an extraordinary love and compassion for animals. She didn’t just grow up around pets—she truly lived alongside them. Our home has always been filled with a variety of animals, including cats, dogs, birds, ducks, reptiles, ferrets, and even the occasional rescue. No matter the species, She treated each one like family, often referring to them as her “babies.” Her nurturing nature was always clear, she would feed them, clean up after them, and do everything to make sure they were happy and healthy. Her passion for animals wasn’t just a phase and animals seem to be drawn to her calm, gentle presence. She has an instinct for reading their needs and responding with kindness and patience. I know she will treat every pet she cares for through Rover with the same love and attention she has always given to our own. She’s dependable, respectful, and someone I would trust with any animal, big or small. Please feel free to reach out if you’d like more insight—I’d be happy to share more about her experience and character.”
