“Lucy is taking Dobby for 1-h walks twice a week. He was a little shy to go at the beginning but then came back very happy. They go to the park and he seemed to have lots of fun! Thank you, Lucy!”

About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals, and they tend to trust me quickly. I’ve cared for many different pets over the years, including dogs, small animals, and birds. I successfully home-trained my rabbit and hand-trained and hand-tamed four parakeets, helping them feel comfortable and bonded with me within their first week at home. I’m very patient, calm, and attentive, which helps pets feel safe and relaxed in my care. I make sure all pets are fed on time, well cared for, and given plenty of love and attention. I also have experience caring for my godsister’s and cousins’ dogs, including a beagle and a dachshund. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I truly believe every pet deserves kindness, consistency, and genuine care. I have a rabbit named miffy, a parakeet named Beaky. I feed and water them everyday as well as charge the litter box of my rabbit as I trained him to learn to do his business in his litterbox. I also help my disabled neighbor walk their dog whenever nobody is home I always prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets in my home or a client’s (or neighbors) home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I take time to build trust with every pet, allowing them to adjust at their own pace. I keep environments clean, calm, and secure, and I make sure pets are supervised, well-cared-for, and given plenty of attention and affection at all times.

“This was my first time using Rover and Joshua is efficient and timely with communication. My dog came back happy after his hour-long walk. I will book again!”

“Very good job taking care of Echo and be flexible with times to walk him. Kamryn is receptive to advice about the dog and seemed to be excited to interact with him during walks.”

About: Hello! My name is Raymond T. I'm a part time student in college. The current field I'm studying in right now is computer science. Messing with computer hardware and coding a machine is a passion I always had as a kid. Other than that, I really love animals! Especially cats and dogs. I currently own 1 dog (Bichon Frise) and I give her the best of everything. Any other dog/cat I interact with, I treat them as a family member. I make sure they're groomed, properly eating, happy, feel comfortable, and making sure they're active. I've been taking care of cats and dogs for 10 years and can tell when they want something, not feeling right, hungry, and feeling sick. I make sure every pet I take care of get the utmost care and love they deserve.

About: I am a highly skilled pet caregiver based in the Bronx with extensive experience in managing the care of dogs and cats in the city and the boroughs. I have successfully handled anxious and high-energy pets, as well as animals with complex dietary needs and challenging leash behaviors. I am more than capable of caring for pets with detailed care instructions. When entrusted with your pet, you can expect frequent and detailed photo and text updates to keep you informed on how your fur baby is doing. I guarantee to keep your pet entertained and engaged in your absence, ensuring a worry-free experience for you. Your pet will receive the same level of care and attention as if they were my own! I work part-time in the entertainment industry, so I have a very flexible schedule. I update my Rover calendar weekly. For the time being, I can only accept bookings accessible by NYC public transportation, including Metro-North and NJ Transit. I have been vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19. I am happy to wear a mask when interacting with humans in your home if requested - I may also mask for my safety. For dogs' safety, I do not take dogs to dog parks, take them off-leash, or simultaneously walk dogs from different households unless I am extremely familiar with the dogs' behavior and the activity is approved by the owners.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember! Growing up with many friends, family members, and neighbors that trusted me in caring for their dogs, I gained a lot of experience in interacting with dogs of any size and age. I have also done some volunteer work in shelters walking and checking-in on the animals (dogs and cats), including babysitting a newborn litter of puppies. I’m currently working part-time during the evenings and weekends in Manhattan for the summer, so I have most of my mornings free to play and get to know your pet during the week! In walking your pet and giving them their daily dose of exercise, I am easily adaptable to their personalities and needs! I am very gentle and patient with my pet at home and I am with every pet I’ve taken care of/will take care of. I can offer higher-energy dogs with more of a workout during our walk by adding in a jog or even taking them to a dog park their parent is comfortable with. I can also follow the pace of older/calmer/special-needs pups.

About: I’m patient with shy, anxious, high-energy, or senior pets, and I pay close attention to routines, behavior changes, and individual personalities. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented, so owners can trust that instructions will be followed carefully and their pets will get thoughtful, attentive care rather than just a quick check-in. I’m a freelancer and student, Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m organized, reliable, and good at maintaining consistent feeding, play, medication, and check-in schedules. I also like quieter routines, so spending time caring for cats feels calming and grounding rather than stressful or rushed. I care for pets with a lot of attention, patience, and respect for their routines and boundaries. In a client’s home, I make sure food, water, litter, medications, and general cleanliness are handled carefully while also giving the cat affection, enrichment, or space depending on their personality. I pay close attention to behavior changes and prioritize creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. Always happy to send updates and tidy up!

“Victor is great with Zuse! He is reliable, attentive, and clearly has a wonderful way with dogs. Zuse always seems happy and well-cared for after their time together. If you are looking for a walker who is professional and genuinely cares about your pup, I highly recommend Victor!”

About: Hi my name is Tabitha, every body calls me Tabi for short. I am a huge animal lover. I love all animals of all breeds and sizes. I grew up with animals my whole life. I've had hamsters, rabbits, dogs, cats, turtles, etc. Mostly cats and dogs. I am interested in animal caring because i want a puppy so bad, but will not be able to get one any time soon. My last dog Oreo, was a pit bull, and i had her for 13 years (her whole life). I live in an apartment and have a cat. I am home 80% of the time and i am always alone. The other 20% i am out running errands. I will like to enjoy the company of an energetic, playful, outgoing, silly and loving dog, cat, etc, who can make my day a bit brighter. I will love, cherish, and enjoy the company of your pet(s), as if they were my very own. Pet sitting is my primary focus, as I am home 80% of the day. My routine is very flexible, only stepping out briefly for quick errands, which means your fur baby will have constant companionship and supervision. Because I’m around so much, I can easily stick to your pet's specific feeding, potty, and play schedules without any interruptions. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. When I’m in a client's home, I maintain a calm and secure environment, ensuring all doors and gates are double-checked. Since I grew up in a family that always had more cats than dogs, I am an expert at reading body language to ensure pets feel safe and never overstimulated. I provide frequent updates and photos so you can have total peace of mind while you're away.

About: I had a love for animals since I was a kid. My father currently has two cats and a poodle. I have also taken care of my friend dogs by driving from Boston! I’m new to New York and I’m currently between jobs. At the moment I’m currently in school remotely. This means I’m pretty much open at anytime. I have taken care of my family and friends pet. No task has been presented hard. I’m a outgoing person but also someone who will pay attention to every detail when It come to care

About: I have 5+ years of experience taking care of dogs. I am patient and reliable, and will love and treat your dog as my own. I work full time during the week, but am available during the weekends to care for your pup. I am also available for long weekends and some holidays I have a friendly dog that can keep your pup company. I live across the street from a park so they will get plenty of exercise

“I just want to say again how great Dominick was with my dog, Dobby. He stepped up and took great care of her, had amazing communication and flexibility. I knew she was in good hands.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my combination of compassion, patience, and caregiving experience. I have over three years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including helping with puppy training, maintaining routines, and providing loving companionship. As a home health aide, I also care for a senior patient, which has strengthened my ability to provide gentle, attentive support to senior pets who may need extra patience, medication reminders, or a calm environment. I treat every pet like family and prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine and something I truly enjoy. I currently help care for my mom’s friend’s cat while he’s away on vacation, making sure the cat is fed, has fresh water, and gets plenty of attention and companionship. Whenever he travels or needs assistance, I’m happy to check in and cat sit. Caring for animals has become a regular part of my life, and I enjoy providing a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for pets while their owners are away. I’m committed to making sure every pet feels comfortable, cared for, and treated like family. Here’s a polished response you can use on Rover: I provide attentive, loving care while respecting each pet’s unique routine and personality. In my client’s home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, receive plenty of playtime, exercise, and companionship, and feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. If caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where they receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. I am experienced with puppies who need consistency and positive reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require extra patience, slower walks, medication administration, or special care. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, secure, and treated like family while their owners are away.
