“We had the absolute best experience boarding Buddy with Natasha! From the moment we dropped him off, Natasha made us feel completely comfortable and reassured us that Buddy was going to be well taken care of. It’s not always easy leaving your dog somewhere, but Natasha was so kind, caring, and attentive, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Buddy had such a great time and was treated like part of the family! We could tell he was happy, comfortable, and getting lots of love and attention. Natasha was also great with communication, and knowing that Buddy was in such good hands made our trip so much more enjoyable. We are so grateful for the wonderful care she gave Buddy and for treating him with so much love. He was clearly very happy during his stay! We will absolutely be booking with Natasha again in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, loving, and responsible to care for their fur baby. Thank you so much, Natasha, for taking such great care of our Buddy! We truly appreciate you!”

It was such a relief to know our dog was in such good hands. We would absolutely book with Eunice again and highly recommend them her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”

He took excellent care of Carl while I was away and gave me real peace of mind the entire time. Communication was solid, and I received updates throughout Carl’s stay — it was clear he was being very well looked after. When I picked him up, he was calm, healthy, and completely himself, which tells you everything you need to know about the level of care he provides. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with John again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter.”

“Let me start by saying this was my first time using Rover ever. Andrew was so helpful and reassuring and explained everything to me.

Thank you so much!!”

“My first time leaving my dog with someone and he fell in love with Tammy and her family from the beginning(dogs know good people)! Updates and pictures of the dog made it all much easier. Coming home and seeing how calm and happy he was, was enough to know he had a great time! Definitely will be our “go to” person!”

They also have an amazing backyard where Buzz could run around, play, and make himself at home. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. I highly recommend Heather and will absolutely be using her again!”
“Anna is such an amazing doggy host. Theo was so adorable and friendly. Her backyard is absolutely perfect. It's huge, wide open, totally fenced in, so much flat grass and even a patio for Reggie to cool off on. Reggie didn't want to leave when we picked him up and when we got home Reggie fell asleep so quick. It was such a relief to find such an amazing host who treated my dog like her own. 5 ⭐️'s all around!!!”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and truly enjoy bonding with pets because they feel like a safe space and the most genuine companions. I have 4+ years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, giving attention, and making pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. Friends, neighbors, and family have relied on me to care for their pets with patience, love, and reliability. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I make time throughout the week for feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, and giving pets attention, comfort, and companionship while their owners are away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any instructions provided by the owner. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior, keep their spaces clean, make sure doors and gates are secure, and give them patience, affection, and gentle care so they feel relaxed and protected.
“Shirley is a wonderful sitter. She responds right away and leaves nothing to mystery. She followed all the instructions given and provided Moose with a safe and supervised environment for the day. Definitely would book again!”

“Sulay was a pleasure to deal with, and Shadow came home happy and relaxed. He was comfortable with her immediately - and got along great with her sweet dog. We appreciate her caring attentiveness. I would definitely recommend her highly, and will be sure to be a repeat customer!”
“Andrew is top rated for a reason! Totally worth the cost. He’s got a great space perfect for a dog to free roam and family all committed to the care of your little one. Professional, accommodating, attentive, and great with updates / communication. New to the area and was nervous leaving my little one with a new care giver for an extended period for work travel. Andrew gave me tons of peace of mind. Definitely recommend!”
“Connor was amazing with my newly adopted dog, Wendy! I was very nervous leaving her as Wendy is still learning to trust new humans so she is a little anxious in new environments. But Connor understood, gave her space and kept her comfortable during her first doggy day care experience. She had fun socializing with his dog Kygo along with some other dog friends outside in his fully fenced backyard. Connor put me at ease with updates and pictures as well. I will be using Connor again in the future and definitely recommend his services to others!”
“This was the last daycare I had with Jennifer before my sweet elderly Xander passed. Xander had come to like Jennifer and over time, started to show excitement when he saw her. So this final rating was given by the dog. Xander had many medical needs and Jennifer accepted all of them. Xander passed yesterday and I contacted her to inform her and thank her. I didn't mention this but I was feeling regret about not checking the box asking for pictures all day long. SHE STARTED SENDING ME PICTURES. I"M CRYING BIG TEARS THANK YOU.”
About: As a devoted dog enthusiast, I have accumulated over two decades of expertise in pet care and have been a dog owner for 25 years. My two English cocker spaniels hold a special place in my heart, making them my absolute world, alongside my spaniel before my current two that I had for 17 years, who passed away in 2019. Spaniels hold a special place in my heart. As a remote worker with a highly flexible schedule, I am able to be present with the puppies and dogs regardless of whether it is a weekend or a weekday. Residing in a two-story townhouse, I do not have a backyard, but I do have three balconies. Additionally, there is a park located nearby. I also have two English cocker spaniels, who are siblings, named Parker and Riley. They are friendly and calm after the initial few minutes. Parker and Riley are both six years old, and my husband and I ensure their well-being by keeping them well-groomed. We consistently monitor their eyes, perform regular teeth brushing, and ensure that their paws and nails are in optimal condition.
About: I have cared for other people's dogs--roommates, friends, neighbors--since childhood, many decades! I've lived with cats, dogs and birds. I said goodbye to my rescue Westie of almost 17 years during 2025, and I’m not ready for another long-term pet commitment yet. I puppy trained her (with trainer) from 4 months and provided senior care for the last few years. I am very patient when meeting new animal souls, allowing them to come to me when they’re ready. I have been taking shelter dogs on Afternoon Adventures and have been successful with helping to train dogs in my care. I am working part time and have a flexible schedule, and now that I'm pet-less, I am available, even on short notice. I have been going on walks/hikes in our beautiful parks (over 2 miles) and would prefer some four-legged company. I am very good at following your instructions, respectful of routines and choices you make, and sensitive to furry companions' needs. I'll send you lots of pics! I will board low-maintenance/energy pets in my home, not puppies or kittens.
“We had our first doggy daycare drop-off with Rosario and it was a great experience. Our 4-month-old Dachshund had a wonderful time and came home happy and tired. Rosario was professional, clearly experienced with puppies, and kept us updated throughout the day. Overall, a very positive experience for everyone—we’d definitely feel comfortable booking again.”
About: Dogs have always been an important part of my life. I currently have two dogs I walk and board as well as a dog at home. I’m committed to keeping the dogs in my care safe, and making sure they are having a great time. Currently I have a pretty open schedule and could work with you on the details. Available 7 days a week, days and nights. Long term or short term. I walk the dogs two or three times a day. Often walk the woods in the reservation and use the dog park. My yard is fenced in and private. Have dog at home (Messi) who loves dogs and company. If you’re more comfortable having your pet caged, we can make arrangements for that or whatever makes you comfortable.
About: I had a very sassy adopted Persian cat for about 6 years until she unfortunately passed earlier this spring. (she was an old lady). I adopted my puppy Levi in March 2022 and most recently my new kitty, Mikasa in July. I currently work full time from home so I have pretty open availability to take care of pets throughout the day. My dog goes on a walk twice throughout the day. My living room is actually used as a flex work space and it is also where my dog has his bed. It is gated off from the kitchen and the other side is my home office where I usually am throughout the day. I also have a play room for the dog that is located off the living room.
“I wish I could gatekeep but it would t be right to other dog parents! Both were amazing with my two big dogs. Even my anxious younger one was treated with patience and kindness until he warmed up. Definitely will be booking again. Thanks Myah and Breanna, you both were great. 😊”
About: My motivation to care for dogs began during my time as a scout, where I learned responsibility, empathy, and the importance of helping others. These values inspired me to start taking care of pets for my mom’s friends and our family members. Over time, I gained experience with dogs of different breeds and personalities, and I truly enjoy spending time with them, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I currently work from Monday to Thursday and occasionally on Fridays. This means I’m available to care for pets on the Fridays I have off, as well as on weekends. I’m happy to help during those times when extra support is needed As a trained children's teacher, I understand how important it is to get to know each pet first — their needs, routines, and personality. I see pets much like young children: they need attention, patience, and lots of care. That’s why I always take the time to understand them before starting any pet care. My goal is to make their stay in my home comfortable and special, and when I care for pets in their own home, I make sure my presence is respectful and friendly, never intrusive.
“Val was absolutely amazing. Very communicative and so sweet to Odie. I got pictures of him throughout the day, and she took phenomenal care of him even under the unfortunate circumstances of him having and injured and bandaged foot (which she was very tentative to) and him needing extra rest.”

From daily walks and feeding to overnight stays and special care routines, your pet’s comfort and happiness are always my top priority. I am currently not working, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding 7 days a week. Times are flexible. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment with personalized routines, enrichment, and close supervision. I do have a cat, but this will never be a problem—introductions are done carefully, and pets are always monitored to ensure everyone feels comfortable. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I follow their normal routines to reduce stress and provide consistent, compassionate care. I treat every pet like family and respect every home as if it were my own, while keeping owners updated for peace of mind.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. My hands-on experience started in 2015 with my cat Mittens (now 10) and my dog Fluffy (also 10), so I understand the long-term care and attention pets need at every stage of life. In addition to caring for my own pets, I worked at an animal hospital for a year and a half, where I gained valuable experience in animal care. This included feeding pets with special diets, following specific care instructions, and supporting animals with different needs. My combination of personal and professional experience helps me provide attentive, reliable, and compassionate care for every pet I look after! I am currently home for the summer from college would like to dedicate my afternoons to my future furry friends! I am flexible, so if there is any shifting/accommodations that has to happen that is fine. I care for pets in my client’s home by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and kept in their normal routine while their owner is away. I follow all specific instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, dietary needs, medication if needed, and exercise routines. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection so they don’t feel stressed or lonely. I treat each home with respect and keep everything clean. I will always provide updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away--I know what its like to miss my pets too!

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 11 years old and currently have seven cats and a Yorkie of my own, so caring for pets has truly been a lifelong part of my everyday life. Having a multi-pet household has given me extensive hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs with different personalities, temperaments, energy levels, and routines. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, litter box care, maintaining daily routines, and giving each pet the individual attention they need. I especially understand cats and how different their personalities can be—from the super affectionate and playful ones to the shy or independent ones who need a little more patience and space to feel comfortable. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to feel confident about who you’re leaving your pets with. I’ll treat every pet in my care with the same love, patience, attention, and respect I give my own, and I’m always happy to provide plenty of photos and updates while you’re away. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine as a pet parent myself. I’m available all day on Saturdays and Sundays, making weekends especially flexible for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, or other pet care needs. During the week, I’m typically available in the evenings starting around 6 PM. I can also be flexible outside of my normal availability as needed, so feel free to reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s schedule and care needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions, including feeding schedules, walking routines, household rules, and any special preferences your pet may have. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both their space and their pet’s established routine, and I make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other potential escape points are secure. For pets staying with me, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment and giving them time to adjust at their own pace. Because I have pets of my own, I take introductions and interactions seriously and would never force unfamiliar animals together. I’m attentive to behavior and body language and will always prioritize what makes each pet feel safe and comfortable.

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent service! They took great care of my dog and treated him like family. I felt at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Hi! I just want to give a huge thank you to Tiara for being absolutely amazing and going above and beyond for my two kittens. Knowing they were under her care brought me so much peace and happiness. She even took personal responsibility to take one of my sick cats to the vet without hesitation. Her dedication, care, and knowledge are truly exceptional—she's perfect! I can’t imagine any better pet sitter and will definitely be calling her again.”
“Starry and Gio were excellent communicators and flexible with a flight delay! They sent frequent updates about our dog and we knew she was well taken care of! highly recommend”
“I had an amazing experience with Akshay. He took excellent care of my dog, Bagheera, and treated him like family from day one. Akshay made sure Bagheera got his daily walks, meals right on time, and plenty of playtime. I really appreciated how he asked questions in the beginning whenever needed—showing how responsible and attentive he is. He also sent daily updates, photos, and little notes about Bagheera’s mood and activities, which kept me completely relaxed while I was away. Another lovely part was Akshay’s dog, Sirius. Bagheera and Sirius became instant buddies! They played, relaxed, explored together, and honestly, it feels like Bagheera came back home with a new brother. Overall, Akshay is reliable, caring, and genuinely passionate about animals. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful and trustworthy Person. Your pet will be in wonderful hands!”
“Nicolle and Ronaldo did such an Incredible job at watching my dog Pimento! Nicolle updated me every single day on all the activities they were doing with him & included time stamps for the entire day! Pimento went on daily runs, had plenty of potty breaks, I was given meal updates, play time videos and more. They were so incredible, extremely reliable and I’m so thankful Pimento was taken such good care of! It’s obvious how much Nicolle & Ronaldo care for the dogs they watch as if they were their own. I will be booking Nicolle & Ronaldo from now on. Thank you so much! Pimento had the time of his life! 🐶🐶”
“Ruby has stayed with Manuel a number of times and every stay, Ruby is so happy when I go to pick her up. She gets so excited when she sees Manuel, I feel so comfortable leaving her in his care. If you’re looking for a dog sitter he is the best!”
“Caitlin was amazing, her and Georgia took such great care of our pup. Super communicative and flexible. Nice long walks and plenty of attention our dog came back a happy camper.”
“I have used Tracy and Steve multiple times and every time Django comes back happy and relaxed. This time they had the unique experience of caring for Nonny… Who is a very “special dog”. They were patient and kind with her and it gave me great confidence in their care! Will book again 🥰”
“I highly recommend Primavera without any hesitation. She went over and beyond to ensure that my dogs were comfortable despite their ‘anxious and nervous’ behaviors. She was very patient with them. She also kept me updated with pictures and video. I will surely be a repeat customer.”
“She was great with Max. Max loved her, she is very kind and cooperative. She updated me with lovely pictures of him and took great care of him. I would definitely have her take care of him again.”
About: Hello! I’m a recent college grad, born and raised in the MAPSO area who recently moved back home, for work in NYC! Im here looking to make long term business partnerships and connections doing what I love most, being around animals. While I am new to Rover I’m no stranger to pet care, helping take care of my family cat and dog since childhood, with our beloved dog Molly going on 15 years! I have experience caring for foster dogs and cats, including 6 Rottweiler/pug puppies, an adult Rottweiler, about 7 cats, and a mixed breed HoundDog. In addition I’ve both dog and cat sit in house for a handful of neighbors and family friends, so I’m experienced in feedings, walks, and administering medicine. I also have experience handling large dogs including a 70 pound Pitbull/American Bulldog mix, and her sister, who while smaller is a big puller! I’m very comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes, temperaments, and ages, and would love to meet your furry family member !🐾 I’m currently working in part time 1-6 on weekdays, commuting from Maplewood NJ to Harlem NYC. I’m therefore able to do morning or evening walks in the city/MAPSO area, along with overnight stays during the week . My weekends are pretty much completely open to walks anytime of the day along with overnight stays. I offer in house care to my clients whether this be overnight or just coming in for walks and so socialization. I’m very mindful of your space and keeping this clean and as they were when I came, and am willing to work around your level of comfortability!

“This is not the first time Ocean was boarded with Natalia and Paul. Definitely not the last. We are going to keep boarding Ocean with them for their cozy environment, extremely caring and company of other dogs keeping Ocean invested.”
“I was SO nervous to leave my old lady with a stranger, but Jessica and her pack were a perfect fit!! She clearly received loads of love and attention, as evidenced by the pictures and reports I regularly received, and we couldn't be happier. Thank you, Jessica, for giving Lily an even better vacation than we had!”
“Lucas and Katherine were great. Our dog had never stayed overnight with a sitter. They allowed him to sleep on their bed, take him out in the car so he wouldn’t be by himself, and even gave me some useful insights. They really love dogs.”
“From the second we met Joni I knew our dog Poppy would be in great hands. Poppy immediately felt comfortable with Joni and didn't even look back as we walked away during the drop off. Joni was in touch with us with pictures and messages about what Poppy was up to several times a day. We would recommend Joni to anyone who is looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter. Thank you Joni!!!!!”
