About: I got my dog Ginger from age 10 and quickly adapted to the role of a dog mom. Throughout school, I would take care of neighborhood and family dogs in my free time giving me a range of experience from huskies to Chihuahuas. I also have experiences with special-needs dogs so, any specific walking/eating schedules shouldn’t be a problem. My availability is Monday through Friday from as early as 8 AM. I am available certain weekends so don’t hesitate to message me and we can work something out! I’m currently out of school with a lot of free time. Most of my work is done from my computer so I have a flexible schedule I have a friendly dog to keep your pet company. I can easily put my dog in another room if necessary. I will always be supervising so there should be no concern about safety while in my care


About: Hi! I grew up with dogs (golden retriever & pomeranian/chihuahua), and am now lucky to be the dog momma to my 5 yr old best friend, Pumbaa (maltese shihtzu). I absolutely love spending time with pups, and I understand how much we all care about our furry friends. I am attentive, happy to provide updates as much as possible, and want you to have peace of mind when away from your fur baby. I have experience dogsitting for my friends/neighbors, house trained Pumbaa since he was a puppy, and respect that each furry friend has unique personalities. I'd love to be your go-to person to care for your pup/cat/best friend :) I'm currently in-between jobs, so I have plenty of time to set up a daily/weekly/regular schedule with you! I am very flexible and happy to work something out together. Like many New Yorkers, I rely on nearby parks for Pumbaa's potty breaks and outdoor time. I have had experience watching 3 dogs (under <20lbs) simultaneously in my home, and each pup had enough space to play with each other and have their own space.

“Taylor went above and beyond watching our two cats! She gave detailed reports every day and looked after them as if they were her own. I can’t recommend her enough, she was the best Rover sitter we’ve ever booked.”


About: I am a passionate and responsible pet caregiver, committed to providing your furry companion with the best care possible. I understand how important your pet is to you, which is why I strive to offer personalized attention, adapting to their needs and ensuring they feel loved and safe at all times. My daily pet care routine includes providing personalized attention to ensure their well-being. Each morning, I start with proper feeding and a walk to ensure they get exercise and enjoy the outdoors. During the day, I offer playtime and mental stimulation, adjusting to each pet's specific needs. In the afternoon, I take them for a second walk, provide more playtime, and check their coat, nails, and ears. Each evening, a short walk before bedtime, ensuring your pet feels calm and comfortable before resting. If necessary, I also provide additional care like administering medication or special treatments, always maintaining a loving and trusting connection with your pet. **Safety, Trust & Environment** When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and emotional well-being. I ensure a pet-proof environment by removing any hazards and making sure they have enough space to explore safely. In my home, pets have a dedicated, calm space where they can rest and relax, and I supervise them closely during playtime or outdoor activities. In the client's home, I respect their routine, follow any specific instructions for the pet's care, and maintain a familiar environment to reduce stress. I also ensure the house is secure and the pet has access to food, water, and a comfortable resting area at all times. Building trust with both the pet and the owner is essential, so I maintain open communication and provide updates as needed.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my calm, intuitive approach and genuine love for animals—shaped by years of caring for my own dog. I'm patient with puppies and gentle with senior pets, always adapting my pace and care to their needs. I focus on building trust, sticking to familiar routines, and creating a peaceful space where pets can thrive. Whether it's giving medication, reinforcing good behavior, or just offering quiet cuddles, I show up with intention and heart every time. As someone with a full-time job, I make caring for pets a meaningful part of my routine. I prioritize time in the mornings, evenings, and weekends for walks, cuddles, and focused attention—just like I do with my own dog. Monday–Thursday: Bookings after 4 PM Friday: Available from 1:00 PM onward Saturday & Sunday: Available all day Whether caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I focus on providing a calm, cozy environment where pets feel safe, loved, and cared for.

“Pamela was very friendly and loving with our pet, was on time and as our dog got more accustomed to her (this was the first time), they even went on a little walk together 😊I would highly recommend her!!”


“I am very pleased with the care Christa gave my 2 little dogs while I was on a weekend vacation! She kept my mind at ease updating me with pictures and their "report card" while I was away. I would definitely recommend Christa to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter. I will be using her again for my next trip!”


About: Hi! I’m Hannah. I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. I’ve had pets my entire life and have spent several years on Rover, walking, boarding, and house-sitting for amazing pups throughout college. On average, I cared for around five dogs in a week, so I’m very comfortable managing multiple pets and giving each one the attention they deserve. Now that I’m working from home full-time, I’m thrilled to be offering my services on Rover again. My flexible schedule allows me to give your pet consistent care, attention, and lots of love throughout the day. Whether your pup needs a walk while you’re away, a cozy place to stay, or a friendly face to keep them company, I’m here to help. I also have a sweet and social pup of my own named Laika 🐾, and we both love welcoming new furry friends into our routine. Let me know how I can support you and your dog. I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s specific needs and routine to ensure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I currently work from home, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule and be available throughout the day to care for your pet. If I ever have upcoming travel plans, I will always let you know in advance and do my best to recommend a trusted replacement, so you’re never left without support. I live in a pet-friendly home and share my space with my own playful and agreeable pup, Laika. She’s well-socialized and has experience being around dogs of all personality types. I always aim to create a calm, fun, and safe environment for every dog I care for. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions you have, including crating, feeding routines, or anything else that will help your pet feel comfortable and secure.

“Murray was an excellent cat sitter. He fed and played with my cats every day and even got my most timid cat to come out of hiding. He also took care of some minor things when I asked him like a camera the cats knocked over.

“Schaila was excellent! My girlfriend and I went on a week long vacation and we needed a drop in sitter for our 2 lovely kittens. Schaila met us for a meet and greet prior. My kittens liked her immediately, she was very friendly and professional. Schaila did a total of 4 drop in visits, sending wonderful, funny and warm rover cards for each one. Lots of awesome pictures were included with each card. She made us feel at total ease that our cat kids were in good hands, which let us fully enjoy our vacation. I would highly recommend Schaila and will be repeating in the future.”


About: I have loved animals since I was a little girl. My family and I adopted an adorable cocker spaniel years ago who has always been very shy. With him, I now have a lot of experience with dogs who need a little more patience. I also have worked at a doggy daycare where I worked with all different dog breeds. I also love cats and would love to take care of some. I have plenty of time to play with your pet! Availability varies weekly but I am free most of the day. Please reach out to me for any questions. I live in a clean environment with just me and my mom. This includes having my own room where I have space for your cute pet to have playtime.
