About: I have had pets, or as I say friends my whole life. For the past 22 years, I have taken care of my own as an adult. I have had both cats and dogs both at the same time. I treat all of my friends like family. I am a dedicated animal lover. I live in Rockaway beach. I am available on Thursdays and Fridays and most weekends. I am available Monday-Wednesday after 6PM. I am very flexible as well to accommodate special requests. I do not have a fenced in yard, however, I take my dog Tina for long walks around Rockaway, on the beach off season, and to the dog run on Shore.

I was very nervous about finding someone to care for our dog, and really wanted to find someone who was open to staying at our home. Greg had glowing reviews on Rover, and luckily was avail”

About: Updated. Im updating my pet profile.I have been on rover for a little bit now, an absolutely love taking care of your Fur babies. It's been a completely enjoyable experience for myself and also great company for my 2 babies I realized I haven't updated my profile in quite a bit. So here it goes, my boston is now 3 years old. Actually, he'll be 3 this month. And since the last time I updated on this profile he has had a baby with one of my good friends Shitsu, so we are the proud owners of a boston terrier/ shitsu named cow boi.

About: I've always had pets growing up and have a lot of pet sitting experience for friends and neighbors. Over the last 9 years, I have been lucky to care for my own dog, Luna who has taught me how to be a loving dog caretaker. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I believe most healthy dogs should get lots of outside time and I love to take dogs on a long beach walk. I love to walk dogs on the beach or in nearby parks. I always keep dogs on leash and stay alert with each dog. I take cute photos to show you what your pup has been up to on their walk.

“Another great day being able to go to work and know that my boys are in good hands with Jewel! She is communicative, punctual, and a natural with interacting with the dogs - not giving them too much attention when it would make them overexcited, and being very kind and affectionate when the time is right. I certainly recommend her to you.”

“Phenomenal job all around. It was our first time using rover for housesitting and we were a bit nervous to leave Marvin (our cat) for such a lengthy period given how many meds he has to have administered. He gets thyroid medication administered twice daily and gets a daily asthma pump. But Marvin was well taken care of! He was pampered and spoiled in all the best ways. We got daily updates with pictures and videos of Marvin which we were really appreciative of. Even during the meet-and-greet it was clear that Marvin would be just fine as Armeda wrote meticulously notes in her phone about Marvin’s routine (which as a spoiled cat is a lot!). We came back to a happy cat and an extremely clean house. I truly recommend Jason and Armeda, they were great. Thank you again!”

“Airella is absolutely amazing! We booked her time for a long weekend away to watch over our menagerie (2 dogs, tree frogs, fish and snake) and general home items, everything was flawless! From the beginning, she was very quick to respond with the initial request for a meet and greet, stopped by same-day that afternoon, and I immediately felt comfortable. Ariella is kind, courteous, upbeat and asked thorough questions. She was willing to be flexible with her daily schedule coming back and forth in the morning, afternoon and staying overnight as well. We received a photo the first night and constant updates each day on how things were going. Everything was safe and sound when we returned. Dogs were happy. Frogs, fish and snake as well :) Our mail and packages were brought in, and Airella was kind enough to offer unpacking our Hello Fresh grocery order. Needless to say, Ariella is a wonderful caretaker and I would highly recommend her to watch over your pets anytime. Thank you Ariella BIG time!!”

Anastasiia was wonderful!! We booked her only a few days before we had to leave, and she still carved out extra time before her visit to FaceTime with us and get to know Etta's routine. She stayed with Etta for the day into the evening, and we couldn't have asked for better care. Etta is anxious and also very stubborn, especially about going outside, but Anastasiia was so patient with her and still managed to get her out for a walk/potty breaks. I felt completely at ease knowing Anastasiia was there. We'd happily book her again!

Terri took amazing care of Elie while I was away. She kept my home exactly as I left it, and Elie was calm, happy, and clearly loved her. She checked in with me every day, sent regular photos, and always responded quickly, which made the whole trip completely stress‑free. Terri was reliable, thoughtful, and great with dogs. I’d absolutely book her again.
