“Chenelle was so responsive during her stay. She was available and always answered our texts. Our animals were happy, we received lots of videos, and the house looked great when we got home!”
“Yazmine was the absolute best!! She took care of my puppy, who is cute but also a puppy. She kept me abreast of what was happening, helped come up with a strategy to help him sleep in his crate, and played with him endlessly. I could not have asked for a better partner. Thank you!”
“Carson was very patient with me as I sorted out my schedule. She came highly recommended from the references she provided. She cared for my elderly dog, Penny, including administering a complicated regimen of medication. I would hire her again!”
“Jaixa was an amazing caretaker for my dog Scarlet! They were so sweet and pleasant to work with, and kept me updated with cute pics of Scarlet on walks. I could tell she was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend Jaixa—your pup will be in great hands! 🐾💖”
“I highly recommend CeeCee for your pet and home sitting needs. We hired her to look after our overly affectionate cat and our quirky pit-mix pup while out of town for 6 days. CeeCee was communicative, sent pictures, and took care of needs as requested, including watering plants. She kept the house tidy, even throwing in a load of wash at the end of her stay. We will definitely be repeat customers for future pet sitting needs.”
About: I owned two dogs up until the age of 16 and loved them dearly. I often took my dogs out for long walks and played with them to make sure they were always active & engaged. Since then, I’ve dog/cat sat for numerous friends and neighbors throughout and post college. I always treat others’ animals with the same love and care as I did with my own! I currently work from home, so I have the flexibility to walk or play with your dog before 9am or in the afternoon and evenings if needed! Unfortunately I am unable to host at this time due to my resistance not allowing dogs, but I am available to dog sit in your home! I will ensure the comfort and safety of your dog at all times in a clean environment and can provide any specific additional/necessary support needed!
“Kamryn is a super dog-sitter! We have had her watch our dogs more than once and she always does an amazing job with them. She is respectful of our home and goes above and beyond. We would not hesitate to ask Kamryn to watch our fur babies again!”
“Erick was absolutely fantastic with my high maintenance French bulldog. He gave him great attention and care all day long with updating me through the process. I will definitely rebook in the future!”
“Tosha was great. She came and met Ellie before her stay. And was communicative while I was away sharing videos, pictures, and written updates. Tosha was also great navigating the fact that Ellie is in heat and also had a front paw issue. I returned after my time away to a happy pup.”
“This is our second time having Kamila pet sit for our dog Luna, and we again had a wonderful experience. Luna was excited and happy to see her, and Kamila once again took wonderful care of her, taking her on nice walks and playing with her at home. She has a sixth sense for animals and gets along with Luna very very well. She also has excellent communication skills with pet people! She always responds to my messages right away and she is positive, on-point and responsible. We consider ourselves so lucky to have found Kamila and will definitely ask her to come back to take care of Luna again. Thanks a million, Kamila! We had never left Luna with a pet sitter before and you have made this an easy and positive experience for us.”
About: I love animals - I have taken care of kittens, old dogs, and everything in between. Having grown up with dogs and cats all my life in Western Massachusetts, I am used to a pet friendly environment and used to treating animals like they’re apart of your family. I work from home in finance with a lot of time to spare! I can provide them a lot of attention and walk them as many times as needed. I try to make each day special for them when they’re in my care. I love to introduce myself and try to get pets to warm up to me while playing. Treats sometimes help depending on the owner’s preference. If they’re in a new environment, I would give them a quick tour and provide them with a place to lie down. After developing trust, a quick walk and some food should solidify that further.
“Emily did an absolutely amazing job with our 10 month puppy! We were sent so many cute and thoughtful updates with photos and videos! I would HIGHLY recommend!!!!! Emily was definitely a star dog sitter!!!!!”
About: Hey! My name is Nikki, I am new to rover but I have been dog walking for a few years now. I started my business on the UES/East Harlem but now that I have moved into the neighborhood I am hoping to meet more furry friends and families through here. If you love seeing cute pups in their element take a look on instagram @ tailsandtrails.nyc My schedule is flexible so it allows me to work around your schedule. If something comes up last minute, short notice work trips, or maybe you just need some time for yourself. I completely understand, I got you covered ! Please feel free to reach out to me anytime if you have any questions I allow them to roam as if they were at their own home, I want them to feel comfortable in the space that they are going to be staying at for a few nights or even for the day.I provide updates and pictures while you’re away so that you can feel at ease.
“Savanna and Maddy took amazing care of our shy cat. We got updates daily with pictures and a summary on how she was doing, and it was very evident that Savanna was extremely knowledgable about cats and was treating ours with both love and respect. We came back to a clean home and a happy cat, and are planning to book with them again. I would 100% recommend these ladies to anyone looking for a sitter who has buckets of love to give and the knowledge to back it up.”
About: I grew up with cats and they felt like sisters to me. I enjoy spending time with animals as they are very healing to me. I have a very flexible and open schedule at the moment for your pet sitting needs. I look forward to meeting your furry children :) I follow the instructions and notes given by clients or friends very carefully. I understand the boundaries the animal sets and I let it come to me when it’s ready.
About: I love all kinds of animals, and I've found that spending time with them boosts my mood and theirs. I grew up with two small dogs, and most of my extended family members have had dogs as well. My friends and I joke that when I go to their houses I spend more time with their pets than I do with them! I'm happy to play with your pets if they want to play, or just sit with them and pet them and give them all the love they could ever need. I understand that it can be scary to leave your pet in the care of a person you may not know well, because they truly do become a family member, but I promise to do everything in my power to provide a comfortable and safe experience for both you and your pet. I’m currently working from home, so I am happy to walk your pets between meetings, or to come work at your place during the day so I can keep your pets company/they can keep ME company! I am an attentive caretaker for all animals, and will follow any instructions left for me very carefully. I don’t just do the bare minimum— I spend quality time with pets and make sure they feel safe and loved.
“TRUSTWORTHY that word has weight, these days. I trust her with Momo, alone, in my house, for days. She delivers. She’s got a wonderful sense of humor. You know? Total dog person”
