Carolyn was great! She loved Oppy, sent pictures of her playing with him daily, and he was happy as could be when I came back! She was also very flexible and understanding with the timing of when to come see Oppy and some confusion due to me having old kitten food still out. I really appreciate her communicativeness and understanding as I guided her to the correct food to use. Would definitely recommend as a cat sitter!

Christina was great. We came up for a weekend and stayed at a hotel and she was able to help take care of our dog from the hotel. She communicated very well and was very punctual. We would definitely use her again on another trip to the city.

Bernadette is amazing!!! It was my first time using Rover and first time having a stranger watch my pet rabbit. I was very worried about having someone in my apartment when I was away and very worried about my rabbit. Bunnies are very sensitive animals, and I can confidently say that she knows how to care for a rabbit!! I also find her very trustworthy! She did drop-ins to care for him. I left long, detailed instructions. Bernadette took the time to read and follow them all, which is super kind and amazing. She sent lots of photos and was very communicative throughout my time being away. I am so thankful I found her and am thankful for how she treated my bunny. It was a very easy smooth process. I will definitely use her for all my rabbit needs, and would highly recommend her for anyone!!!!

About: Dogs make my day. Whether it's caring for them or seeing them in passing on the street, I squeal over their individual personalities and enjoy being their favorite aunt! Friends have relied on me numerous times to walk, feed, and even bathe their dogs of different breeds, sizes, and ages. Not to mention I grew up with my family's high-energy Jack Russell Terrier. My partner and I also adopted our sweet Lhasa Also/Shih Tzu Mix named Gizmo in 2021, when he was allegedly 10 years old, and we absolutely adore him. My work schedule is different month-to-month so please feel free to reach out for any specific availability. :) If I'm unavailable, you can also book with my partner, Nick, through my account (see pictures). Often covering for me with owner knowledge, he used to be a Wag walker and had a big dog of his own before we got our Gizmo together. Prior to their first walk with me I strongly encourage meet and greets with all my doggo friends, so I can introduce myself to your dog properly and you can show me exactly how you want your dog cared for. This is also a great time to show me any games your dog loves to play, any favorite tickle spots, or in general any quirks your dog may have. I love meeting owners and their dogs and learning from their bond! Plus, feel free to schedule the meet and greet with Nick as well, in case you'd like the option of inquiring about two walker's future availability through one account. I also only care for one dog at a time, so they have my full attention.

Fernan has always been reliable when caring for my dog Teddy. We ask him to look after him every time we go on vacation, and we always return to our dog in the same happy and healthy shape. We'll always go to Fernan when it comes to walking and caring for our dog.

About: I love dogs, I understand how important they are for you so I will take care of them like are they are mine. I am very affectionate and caring myself so I will for sure be careful with your pet. I am also very active and playful hence that makes me the person who will run your dog and keep him happy and playing. I do not have professional experience but i have been around dogs all my life and they have been happy. My neighbors and friends leave their dog with me when they go out on trips and stuff. Apart from all the dog stuff, i go to San Francisco State University for Journalism and Women & Gender Studies. Live in the city with my friends and part time work at the library. I am currently working part-time so I have a lot of availability for the remainder of this year. I am also flexible with arranging my availability. I am able to keep your pets safe during walks and sittings. There are several fenced dog parks in my area and a safe area for them to play in my building.

Kelly came and hung out with our very separation anxiety prone pup in our hotel room when my husband and I went to dinner. Bailey instantly Took to Kelly and was chill and relaxed for their visit. Having someone other than the two of us leave meant much less whining and barking and we were able to enjoy a relaxing meal and know what someone would let us know if we really needed to come back. Thank you!

About: My name is Jordyn and I am a responsible 25 year old living in New York City. My parents have an 150 lb English Mastiff back home who I miss everyday. I have babysat and cared for people's children and pets ever since I was little. I am a lot of fun and very active. Exploring the city with a furry friend, taking them to dog park, and caring for them is such a treat for me. I think the most important thing as a dog care-taker is to keep your dog active as well as have human interaction during the day and that is what I am here for. I know how hard it is to get you dog to be active during the day while at work so therefore, I am here to assist with your furry friend's needs.

Alyssa was very communicative and adjusted to changes in our meeting schedule. I came back home to a happy kitty with a clean litterbox. She also went above and beyond and brought a couple packages inside the foyer.
