“Gina's photography alone is worth booking the drop in! She will love your animal like they are hers and follow your instructions to a T. I have so many action photos of Skeat my aunt is going to LOVE them. Thank you for helping me during this transition, Gina!”


“Alexandra is amazing! I reached out last minute for a few drop-ins over the holiday weekend. She answered right away and was able to work with my schedule. She went out of her way to pick up more food for my kitty and made sure to follow up after each visit. Thank you so much for letting me enjoy my vacation without worrying about my baby! I know she was in good hands :)”


“Naomi was wonderful! We have a senior dog and she absolutely made him comfortable while we were away! We were thankful to have her watch our fur babies and would absolutely book Naomi again. She came on time, ensured they were fed/happy/pottied and communicated effectively! Thank you Naomi!”


“Jennifer gave our dog Zoey the care and attention she needs while we were out of town. She was communicative and always got the best pics on her check ins.”


About: I have an unconditional love for dogs. I've never met a dog that didn't want to be around me constantly. I believe that when a dog is in my house, it's their house now. I'm very conscience of dogs needs and always put their needs before mine. I work very close to home so am able to have close access to them if need be. I am free on weekends to spend as much time with them as I can. I work full time but only Monday- Friday and am home at 3:00 everyday so there is plenty of time in the afternoon and night for care. I live in an apartment with my dog now. It is safe and dog friendly. I have a dog park in my complex and a dog beach 5 minutes away.

“Marissa is a fantastic and reliable sitter. My kitties love her, she communicates regularly, and is very attentive. Can't recommend her enough”


“Isabel was a wonderful sitter and took excellent care of our cat Hank. We are grateful to have had her during our long weekend away. She made us feel comfortable with her drop in visits and was communicative and clean!! 11/10! Thank you!!!”


“Samantha came in to save the day with our fur friends. She was super responsive and asked questions and took very good care of our doggies. I would definitely recommend and will use her again in the future.”


About: I am known to be a reliable, attentive, and fun dog caregiver. You can count on me to do the job, 7+ years of experience shows! I will take care of your best friend as if they are my own! I am currently switching positions in my career which also comes with a new schedule. I now have more free time to add pet care into my daily/weekly routine. I will care for your pet by keeping a very close eye on them to ensure their safety at all times. I am a dog owner myself and understand the importance.

“We had a great experience with Zoe, she was friendly and responsive and our pets loved her. We felt very comfortable with her caring for them :)”


“Breanna is kind, professional, and reliable! She dealt with several unexpected mishaps that came up during the visits with patience and poise. Great communication. Would book again and highly recommend Breanna. ☺️”


“Highly recommend Allie! She was friendly, responsive, and always sent me a detailed overview of her visit each day, which included multiple photos of my cats. They were well taken care of! Will be booking Allie again in the future.”


About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and a cat. From a Maltese to a Mini Australian Shepherd, I have worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I have a three year old Mini Aussie named Teddy who is my pride and joy. I’ve learned so much with family dogs and even more with him on my own. I love caring for animals because I know how much my own matter to me. I am currently working from home on Mondays and Fridays which allows me flexibility to do drop-in’s during the day and on the weekends. I am happy to work around my schedule and yours to ensure your dog is getting the care it needs. I am open to following your specific needs for your animal. I have had my dogs trained and have learned about training along the way as they have.

“Jessica is our first choice whenever we need someone to look out for Jax when we are away for a few days or even just to say “Hi!” during a full day trip. For an old dog who’s on a lot of meds, she is completely accustomed to his wants and needs and she treats him so well. She isn’t afraid to ask questions if necessary and keeps me up to date on what’s going on. Best of all I can tell he was happy with her while I was away from home. Jax won’t let us pick anyone else lol, but we’re okay with that.”


About: I had an American Bull dog that came into my life when she was about 10 weeks old. I house and crate trained her on my own. I’ve also always been the friend/family member that people call when they need someone they can rely when they need assistance with their pets. I don’t have any of my own pets now, but would love to someday. Until then, I have lots of love to give to other animlas! I work from home at least three days a week. When I do go into the office, I have a flexible schedule and can easily come and go. I have a fitness routine but can easily work around that. I have a small fenced in patio area where your pet and I could hang out outside at my home if we were here. I am also in a very safe and walkable neighborhood and it would be very easy to take walks and bathroom breaks. When I do drop ins, I make sure I spend a little time there as well to give the animals some love and attention. I wouldn’t never just let them out and leave because they deserve more time then that, especially after being alone for a few hours.

“Emilija is amazing. My cat (Kel) is quite shy, but surprisingly warmed up to her quickly. Emilijah was very attentive to Kel, so he grew fond of her. I highly recommend Emilija to look after any of your pets.”


About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young. I have had 3 dogs and a cat and loved spending time with them and caring for them. My friends and family have relied on me to take care of their animals when they are out of town or busy and it has been a wonderful task. I play professional soccer, mostly abroad. I am currently in the states training waiting for my next contract. I have plenty of free time to care for your animal! I will care for your home as it is my own. I understand how much someone can love their animals and home. I will prioritize cleanliness of your house & animal.

“Grace was super easy to plan and communicate with, even on a super last minute booking she had no issue and was there when I needed! Will use again!”


About: I’m a huge dog lover and proud dachshund fanatic, but I adore pups of all shapes and sizes! Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, or just hanging out, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I have experience with all kinds of personalities— from playful pups to sweet seniors— and I always treat them like my own! I work from home, so my schedule is super flexible, allowing me to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day! Just let me know what you need, and I will try to be flexible. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I make sure every dog feels comfortable by sticking to their routine, providing plenty of love, and keeping a close eye on their needs. I work from home, so dogs are never left alone for long, and I always create a calm, stress-free environment.

About: I've taken care of every animal ranging from dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and more!!!! I love all animals, and as someone whose family has always owned pets, I understand the importance of choosing the right pet sitter! That's what makes me a great option to care for your animal :) I work a remote job, so I will be around the animal at all times, making sure it has everything it needs. This schedule allows me to be there to feed, go on walks and overall ensure your animal isn't lonely and has someone to play with! I live by myself and nobody else has access to my room. Right outside my apartment is a field where your animal can play. I also have a litter room set up. If caring for the animal in your apartment, I will make sure to visit the place the appropriate amount of times, while also ensuring your home is safe and locked up when I leave!

She loves on Goose and Truman like they're her own, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter or dog walker! There is truly nobody like her.”

Sunset Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Ambria did a great job taking care of our cat Blanca! Blanca needs some additional care that includes medications and Ambria kept us updated on her status and made sure she got the care she needs while we were away.

Ali is amazing. I trust her with all of my pets— she is truly a dog/guinea pig/cat whisperer!! Thank you Ali. Not only do I look forward to having you help again, so do each and every one of my pets!!!

Samantha was absolutely wonderful! I always enjoyed the pictures she sent me each day. I will definitely be using her again. Thank you, Samantha!

I used to work for Rover and absolutely loved it! That said, this was my first time using their drop-in visit service as a customer, so I naturally had some concerns about allowing someone new into my home. After reading Jennifer’s glowing reviews, I decided to give it a try, and I’m so glad I did! Jennifer was fantastic. She documented each check-in and checkout with photos, showing my furbabies being fed or walked daily. (Linus, my cat, has his own litter box, so I had asked her to leave that part alone to avoid any extra cleanup.) She also shared thoughtful updates about their behavior, like how they enjoyed roaming around the house and occasionally knocking things over or shredding items, which she kindly picked up during her visits. Most importantly, my pets seemed happy and well cared for, with no issues at all. I truly appreciate the level of attention Jennifer gave and fully intend to book with her again, especially knowing she enjoyed her time with my babies, too!
