“Ayanna seems very kind and dependable. I am so glad she will be house and pet sitting while we are gone and the animals will have the comfort of her presence while we are away. I think they will feel lucky.”

“Kerra and Chris are a wonderful couple who work together in such a harmonious way. Kerra was already busy caring for another four-legged friend, but Chris was assigned to care for my cat fur baby, and he was absolutely wonderful! Chris was patient, caring, attentive, and very detailed. He provided excellent updates, along with lots of pictures and videos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. He is trustworthy, dependable, and truly takes pride in providing the best care possible. My cat is so lucky to have had such wonderful care, and I’m incredibly grateful to both Kerra and Chris. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving, responsible, and trustworthy pet care!”

About: Experienced in day-caring and boarding dogs. Have a two year old Cavapoo at home in which I can provide a clean, safe, and entertaining place for your doggy. I walk pets as a way to relief myself from home working environment. Furthermore, interacting with pets also helps my stress relief and I am happy to keep this a daily routine. I had a cage and fence for my dog when he was a younger one, we have potty trained him and rewarded him. He was free ranged in living room and common spaces besides bedroom and bathroom now.

She is incredibly professional, communicative and flexible. We were away for a while and felt so much more comforted and secure that our cat babies would be taken care of thanks to her. She’s a BLESSING! We are so so thankful ??❤️ Would strongly recommend her”

When our flight home was canceled, Christina stepped up and extended her visits for extra days without hesitation. She really worked with us on scheduling and kept us continuously updated.

“Daniel responded to a last minute holiday booking for our cat. He was a lifesaver and provided great care to our little guy. He was able to navigate our apartment/instructions without a meet & greet beforehand. A plus is that our very shy cat was willing to come out and greet him. We will definitely book with him again!”

About: I have been around and taken care of pets my whole life! Sharing the pet care responsibilities with my mom growing up, I bring a well-rounded experience with different dog personality types, and an open minded understanding + approach to each pet’s needs and routines. I grew up with a Husky as a child, Alaskan Eskimo/Border Collie Mix in my teen years, and now my family has transitioned towards the more sensitive type, occasionally lazy, and hands-on Frenchie breed. We have also always had 1-2 indoor cats around my whole life, that I have enjoyed respecting their independence and/or need for cuddles. I’m comfortable with all sizes of pets, especially because I know they just think of themselves as tiny babies! I have mostly cared for my own pets at home, but occasionally helped out friends and family members at their houses with pet care. This past year, I’ve branched out to caring for newfound friends via Trusted Housesitters, where I realize I’d love the opportunity to drop-in and hang out with pets in addition to overnight visits. For my own pets, family member’s pets, and new TH friends in both city and suburban settings; I have adhered to different routine guidelines that included daily walks, frisbee games at the park, giving baths, preparing lick mats, creating dog enrichment tasks, daily grooming, practicing commands, and of course cuddling — I only want what’s best for your pet! I currently work part-time in the mornings at a Pilates studio in Manhattan. My schedule is flexible during the afternoons & evenings, allowing me to give a lot of care and attention to your fur baby clients. 🐶🐱 I have excellent time management and organizational skills to navigate your pet’s needs and maintain their everyday structure. I’m available to petsit weekdays, weekends, and holidays with a preference for afternoon and evening care. I care for a client’s pet like they are my own; with lots of love and affection, but most importantly respect. I take these exchanges of trust very serious; between the client’s pet, their space, and maintaining a positive relationship on all ends. I ensure that the client’s home is kept clean and organized, just as I’ve found it when I arrived, and thoroughly follow any rules or routines that have been shared. I also make sure to communicate any questions and send cute pet pictures to share during my time — with the best intentions of helping the pets feel comfortable in my care, I want the client to know their pet is in good hands.

“Ashley took great care of our two cats. The kitties were in good spirits when we returned home. Ashley was also super nice to offer to take care of the cats in case we had issues with our return flight. She was very straight forward in her communications, both in person and via Rover. We would ask for her help again.”

About: I work from home most days, which means your pup gets steady attention, potty breaks, and plenty of play instead of being left alone. I have been the go to pet sitter and walker for friends and family for years, so I am comfortable with all kinds of dogs and their routines. I treat every dog in my care exactly like my own, and I am happy to send photo and text updates so you always know your baby is happy and safe. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meet and greet! Since I work from home most days, pet care fits naturally into my routine with walks, potty breaks, and play throughout the day. I live in Long Island City with a dog park just one or two blocks away, so evening walks and playtime are part of my everyday plan. I can offer daytime doggy care on my work from home days and am always open to scheduling a meet and greet first🐾❤️ Your pet's safety is my top priority, whether I am caring for them in my home or yours. I live in a spacious, secure building in Long Island City with a dog park just a block or two away, so there is plenty of room to play and easy access to outdoor time. I keep a clean, hazard free space and stay attentive during walks, always keeping dogs leashed and away from traffic. Since I work from home most days, your pet is rarely left alone and always has someone watching over them. I am happy to follow any routines, house rules, or special instructions you provide.

About: I used to work at Felix and Oscar so if you need any food recommendations, i’m your girl! I also have walked dogs for about 2 years as well as overnight care and drop ins. I just graduated from James Madison University and I am working a part time job so I am available to work mornings and afternoons as well! I have a 1 year old puppy and I take care of him as well as train him. We play, I give treats, and many walks! I also had a puppy throughout all my childhood and he lived to be 16 years old, so i have experience with senior dogs.

We had a meet and greet before deciding, and Miko immediately vibed with Micaela, so we knew it was a yes! She sent detailed daily updates about his litter box, mood, eating habits, and even his food bowl. It was honestly amazing. I was away in LA, but her updates gave me so much peace of mind that I didn’t have to worry about Miko at all. She really paid attention to the little things not like others. Lowkey fire, would definitely book again (soonnnnn)

Having Yarden take care of our cat was the absolute best and most seamless experience. This was our first time working with Rover and we were anxious about how our very shy cat would do with a new face. Yarden went above and beyond to gain the trust of our cat with treats, lots of patience, and even offering to spend extra time with her so they could acclimate to each other. She managed to achieve the impossible and our girl was cuddling with her and treating her like family very early on. Her updates were thorough and we didn't worry at all while being away. Could not recommend her enough and we will definitely be asking her to take care of our girl in the future.

Thank you so much, Formosa, for being an incredible pet sitter! She has extensive experience with cats, and our cats thoroughly enjoyed their playtime with her. This was our first time booking a sitter, so we were quite worried about spending time without our cats. However, Formosa played with our cats passionately, and her photos of our cats made us laugh all night. We are incredibly grateful to have found such excellent care near us and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in our family and friends.

Third time booking with Liam and he is just as reliable as ever! This trip, I had him come by twice a day and it was worth it. My cats were well cared for and all my instructions were followed. I love the pictures he sends and the reassuring notes with every visit. I used to be so reluctant to travel but now with Liam’s care, I really don’t stress out about it!
