About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for animals, starting at an age 12, I looked after small, medium, and large dogs, as well as parrots and fish. Family and neighbors have always trusted me with their pets because of my dedication and patience. Also, I provide a calm, one-on-one environment. My building has green areas downstairs for frequent potty breaks, ensuring your pet gets plenty of fresh air and personalized attention. As a student, I have a very organized routine. On Tuesdays and weekends, I am available all day for daycare. I’m Fridays, my pet care schedule starts at 3:00 PM, which is perfect for evening daycare or overnight stays. During these times, I am mostly at home studying, so your pet will have my full attention and frequent potty breaks in my building’s green areas! Safety is my top priority. In my apartment, I ensure all areas are dog-proofed and free of small objects. Since I live in a building, I always use a leash when taking pets downstairs to our private green areas to ensure they are safe and secure. I never leave pets unattended and I follow any feeding or medical instructions provided by the owners. I also love sending frequent photo updates so you can see your pet is happy and safe with me!

“Patrícia was great! It was our first time having a rover sitter in our new house so our cat was a little scared but Patrícia handled it well. We absolutely trust her with our pet and property! Thanks!”


“Marcelline did an excellent job sitting our cat for four days and three nights. She was attentive and communicated regularly, texting photos and updates, and was a lovely, respectful houseguest. We will definitely use her again when the need arises.”

“Hillary was great at handling all my questions since the day I was leaving my cat started having issues with his eye. She followed my snack and medicine request perfectly and made sure everything in the house was secure before she left. Both cats were happy and well taken care of.”


“It was my first time using Rover and Jenn did a great job taking care of my cat, Luna. Luna was a bit nervous and Jenn took the time to make her comfortable and they were best friends by the end! I would definitely book Jenn again in the future.”


About: I’ve taken care of cats ever since I was 15 years old. I used to take care of my sister’s cat very often when she was in college and I still occasionally pet-sit for her. I also have my own cat that I’ve taken care of for the past three years.
“Mark was great with my boys. He was very attentive and kind. Me being away for a week is real stressful for my cats, but he made them feel at ease and comfortable. He even took quality time to play with the kitten, which made the kitten so happy. Mark was great with communicating and keeping me updated with the visits. I would use Mark again and highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a professional sitter who is kind, gentle and caring.”

“Extremely impressed with Maria taking care of my cat. My cat is newly rescued and very scared of people. While I was away my cat found some places I didn't even know were possible to hide that were probably not very safe for a cat. Maria went out of her way to get my cat out, and prevent her from going back. By the end of the week my cat was even opening up a bit towards her.”

“Thanks again KathyG. and thanks for the pics of Norris... outside, inside, eating, then shacked up in his cave. i like the side view pic of him eating bcuz it gives me a chance to eyeball his collar and make sure its still on.”

“Samantha provided drop in visits for our 3 cats while we were away on vacation. She was super friendly, reliable and an excellent communicator. She was also accommodating to our specific requests and we were able to relax knowing that our cats and house were in amazing hands while we were away. We will not hesitate to book Samantha again in the future.”

“Jenny K. is AMAZING! She was a wonderful cat-sitter who is both gentle and incredibly kind! I feel very lucky to have found her! She took wonderful care of my cat and I was able to have a worry free vacation. I cannot recommend her enough!”

“Rafa LOVES Andrea. Rafa had a very full visit with Andrea and came home happy and exhausted. Andrea is very friendly and (obviously) loves dogs. She treats your dog like he is her own and I felt so comfortable leaving Rafa there. It was wonderful to have an evening out, knowing he was well cared for while also having a ball.”

About: I’ve cared for a wide variety of dogs and cats, including pit bulls, golden retrievers, poodles, senior dogs, and tabby cats. I’ve also cared for pets with medication and dietary needs, including both oral and injectable medications. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Whether that means a long walk, plenty of play and attention, sticking closely to their feeding routine, or simply giving a nervous or senior pet some extra patience, I’m happy to adapt to their individual needs. I’ll keep you updated with how your pet is doing and treat your pet with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I currently work evening shifts at my family’s restaurant in Darien, so I’m generally available for pet care during the mornings and afternoons, as well as some evenings. My work schedule does not interfere with housesitting, and I’m able to provide attentive care throughout the day and overnight. For walks and drop-in visits, I’m happy to work around my evening schedule and coordinate times that work best for you and your pet. I have a fenced-in yard and a very docile and friendly golden retriever. She’s 11 and gets along with every animal she meets. When taking care of a pet at client’s homes, I prioritize leaving it in the same or better condition than I found it.
“Lena is a true professional dog carer..she took the time my dogs needed to feel comfortable with them. Very accomodating to their individual quirks, truly feel they are safe and happy in her care. Grateful to have found her! Also, bonus, her son is wonderful and my Midge is in LOVE with him.”

“My puppy was really happy at this place and i was able to tell! They take great care and have great communication! Love how free dogs can be here thanks to the fence and also like that they are always being watched!”

About: I've worked as a dog bather at two different dog grooming salons, where I gained experience handling dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My partner and I have also owned and cared for pets our whole life—we have 5 cats and regularly dog sit our family members' dogs. My partner and I work well as a team to make sure every pet gets plenty of love, attention, and the best care possible. We also have experience working in the cleaning industry, so we understand the importance of keeping spaces safe, clean, and comfortable for animals. We currently have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows us to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. We take a daily run and would be happy to bring an energetic dog along if it’s something they’re comfortable with. We also go to the gym each evening from 8–10 PM, but outside of that we are home and available. Because of our flexible routine, we can provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, feeding, and lots of love and attention to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away, at work, or just need a break for the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel at home. We have experience caring for both dogs and cats and currently have 5 cats of our own, so we’re very familiar with daily pet care routines. We follow each pet owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, medications, and special needs. With our flexible schedule, we’re able to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention to ensure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Chandi watched Vinnie for the day when we had a last minute request. Vinnie had the best time at her house! He played in the yard and enjoyed being with Chandi! Chandi sent photos and frequent updates about Vinnie’s day. We are so grateful for her help!!”

“Radostina and her Family were great for our girls. They gave them lots of time to play outside and run around with some rest and snuggles inside. She updated us throughout the day with texts and photos as well. Would highly recommend and look forward to the next time our girls need a place to feel at home away from home”

“Val ( and family ) were absolutely amazing! We needed a last-minute booking for our dog, and she went above and beyond to accommodate us. Throughout the week, she sent lots of photos and videos, keeping us updated and reassured that our pup was happy and well cared for. It was clear she treated our dog like family, and we could tell how much love and attention she gave. We came home to a healthy, happy dog, and we’re so grateful for her exceptional care. Highly recommended, and we will absolutely use her again in the future!”

“Anna was amazing. Sebbie stayed two straight days. He jumped out of the car in the second day to get into the house. Anna sends pics throughout the day and is super responsive. Really great setup for dogs too.”

About: I have a lifetime of caring for my own pets, including senior care. I am loving, attentive, observant and treat every animal as my own. Rover is my sole job so there are no competing demands in my life. I am focused on the dogs in my care and my schedule allows for multiple walks in your neighborhood or mine, play time and of course hugs and kisses. No matter the age or special needs of your dog, I have the time, maturity and focus to give your dog the care they deserve. My home is safe clean and in a good neighborhood, two 2 large lawns where your dog can be walked & play. I am familiar with all local vets, emergency services and dog parks.
“Josie had such a lovely day with Clinton, his dog, and his son! She got lots of cuddles, time to roam around the fenced backyard, and plenty of window watching, three of her favorite things. Clinton communicated well and sent lots of great photos. I’ll definitely be bringing her back!”


“Barb provided fantastic care for my 2 needy pups. In addition, she was extremely communicative and flexible as I had to switch things up on her last minute. We'll definitely be repeat customers!”

About: Hi, I’m Tatiana! Animals have always been part of my life, but in the last years I realized that I have a natural talent for training and working with dogs. What started as a passion has now become my full-time profession. I have hands-on experience with pets of all ages and temperaments — from playful puppies to senior dogs, from shy or anxious pets to those with more challenging behaviors. I focus on creating calm, safe, and structured environments so every dog feels secure and understood. Along with pet sitting and walks, I also integrate basic training and positive reinforcement into my care, helping pets build good habits and confidence. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in reliable and loving hands. 💕 Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Since I work independently and have a flexible schedule, I can easily dedicate my time to walks, play, feeding, and any special needs your pet may have. I make sure to structure my day so that pets receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine, I always create a calm and secure environment. I pay close attention to their routines, behaviors, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m experienced in working with both dogs and cats of different ages and temperaments, including pets that may be shy, anxious, or require medication. My goal is to ensure they feel safe, understood, and loved while you’re away.
About: I have spent most of my life around dogs and cats. They have been part of my family since I was a kid, so caring for pets comes naturally to me. I know how important routine is, so I stick to regular feeding times, walks, and playtime. Every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to get to know them and make them feel at ease. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and right at home. I work from home, so pet care fits right into my day. I have two dogs of my own, which means walks, feeding, playtime, and attention are already part of my routine. I keep a consistent schedule and make sure pets get everything they need throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard, so dogs can safely run and play outdoors. Inside, I keep a clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly space. I always make sure pets are supervised and cared for in a safe environment, with close attention to their behavior and needs throughout the day.

“Abby is always so happy to see Jennifer when she comes by - her tail doesn’t stop wagging. I love knowing that Abby is getting taken care of when I’m not around. Jennifer is reliable and timely and takes Abby for a nice, long walk. I trust that Abby is in good hands.”

“Iyanna and Tatiana were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. They had to deal with a couple of obstacles and came through like champs. They are not only polite to us humans, they were great with our almost 15 year old Morkie. Their communication was second to none. We cannot thank them enough. Thank you both for making our lyric so much easier. We hope to see you again soon. ❤️”

About: Hello! My name is Skyler and I am currently a mammal trainer at an AZA accredited aquarium with a background in veterinary care. I would love to help walk your dog, whether you have certain training goals or just needing extra help while you are at work! I started my career by walking my friend’s crazy, (but adorable) puppy in high school. I was able to help train the puppy during every walk, and left her tired out when her owner got home. I am off two of the busiest days of the week- Monday and Tuesday. I have full availability to do drop ins, daycare, or dog walks! I have an unfenced yard and plenty of grass out front. I take frequent trips to my local park that has tons of room to play.

“Alexis came in for two weeks on last minute notice. She was extremely reliable, communicative and hard-working. Frankie clearly loved her as well from the photos we received. Highly recommend!”

“Cam was absolutely the best! Dependable, friendly, punctual and very communicative...and he clearly loves dogs and they love him! We could not be more grateful for the great care he took of our 10 month old lab, especially during the hottest week of the summer! I'd give him 10 stars if I could!”

“Alexa is terrific with our sometimes difficult dog. He loved her from the moment he met her! Alexa is extremely conscientious, keeping me updated on her arrival and departure and always checking his food and water before she leaves. And she takes the BEST pictures of their walks!”

About: I grew up in a household where my grandmother was a licensed animal rehabilitation specialist who cared for injured and orphaned wildlife. Being raised around her work gave me the opportunity to learn from an early age how to safely and patiently interact with animals with different needs, personalities, and temperaments. I became familiar with the importance of proper feeding, cleaning, sanitation, observation, handling, and maintaining consistent care routines. I also grew up caring for and living alongside a variety of domestic animals, including cats, dogs, and reptiles. I’m currently employed part time, so I have plenty of time to take care of and love pets in every way possible. With my experience I assure you the best care. I have a fenced in back yard with a friendly older female dog and a fluffy indoor kitty named Chewbacca and we all get along with new friends to care for.
“Wendy came through in a pinch when we needed someone to walk our dog on a freezing night in January when I couldn’t bring our baby out. She was super professional, friendly and warm with our dog.”

“Dependable and caring! I recently moved to the area and Kathy has been stopping by to give my pup a walk every day as I ease back into the office after working from home during the pandemic. Kathy is trustworthy and loves my pup and treats her as well as I do and that’s why I highly recommend her. It’s easy for anyone to show up on time, but hard for someone to really give you peace of mind your furry friend is in great hands. Kathy delivers on both!”

“Devora was very good watching our dog and other animals for four days while we were away. She came to our house three times per day to walk our dog and feed her at night. She is very good with all animals. Definitely recommend her.”

“Kate is amazing with our dogs. They are always excited to see her. She is great on walks with them and has the best pictures. She is always able to help last minute as well. We are very happy to have Kate help our dogs.”


About: As a child, I grew up with dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, and lots of other furry friends! I learned so much about animal care because of them and adore animals of all shapes, sizes and ages. I worked for 4 years as a store supervisor at a holistic pet shop which emphasized healthy and humane pet care. I am an experienced dog and cat sitter who is capable of handling more than one dog at a time. I’ve cared for Great Danes, bulldogs, miniature poodles, rescue cats, and senior pets with special needs. I have more flexibility on certain weekdays due to my remote work schedule. I'm eager to meet you and your furry family member! I have flexibility during the week for walks! I currently have a remote work model which gives me time to take your dog for a walk and play outside. I treat every client and home with the utmost respect. Trust is so important with pet sitting because our pets are family members. They’re an extension of our hearts!
