“Sam was great at taking care of our dog. She gave the right amount of updates and was always responsive when we needed to contact her. Our dog seems to have enjoyed her stay, loved the backyard and was always happy in the photos Sam shared. We will definitely try to book Sam again next time we need someone to look at our dog. Definitely recommend.”
“This was my first time ever using Rover and I couldn’t be happier. Vanessa was great and took really good care of my dog Jax.

“My dog is like my furry kid. He’s very special to me so whenever I have to leave him I get super anxious. Lenford eased that anxiety. He was very warm and welcoming to me and my dog. He made me feel like I had nothing to worry about and that my dog was in caring hands. He’s also really communicative. He sent me lots of pictures and video to keep my updated on how my dog was doing in his care. Lenford is amazing and will be my go to from now on,”

About: For the past six months, I’ve been caring for my own Shih Tzu, and she inspired me to become a pet caregiver. Taking care of her has taught me the importance of patience, love, and responsibility. I have experience with daily walks, feeding, playtime, grooming, administering basic care, and making sure she feels safe, happy, and comfortable. Caring for my dog has shown me how rewarding it is to provide pets with the attention and affection they deserve, and I’m excited to give the same level of care to every dog I look after. I'm currently working part-time. I only work Monday, Thursday, 7 hours and Friday 3 hours, which means that I have a lot of time to dedicate to your pet ❤️ I also have a 6-month-old dog of the Shihtzu breed so your baby will have company 🥰 I have a house with a patio in front of the house with a defense, also a backyard for the kids to play, the backyard has no defense because it connects with the parking lot of the house, they will have daily walks and above all I’ll take them to the park, parks where dogs are allowed all under precautions
“I just love the way she cared for my pet Dusty, it was his first time with her and she managed it. In the Beginning he was a little difficult at the end he improved greatly I could see the changes in him at home. I would highly recommend her to anyone. I would consider her again.”
“Michelle was great with my Siberian husky mix. She came back safe and sound. We received daily photos which I appreciated even though we were only away for 4 days”
“This is the first time Tuna has boarded with anyone and Kristin did an amazing job!! Great communication, flexibility and sent picture/video everyday! Will be booking with Kristin again in the future. Tuna had the best time! ❤️❤️”
“I highly recommend Karla for anyone’s pet care needs. She was friendly, responsive and a delight to work with. She provided daily updates on my dog’s day with pictures. I look forward to working with her again!”
“Our dog Hazelnut couldn’t have been in better hands than Ariella! Ariella was very attentive to all the details, likes/dislikes, and notes of our little Hazey during our Meet & Greet and she exemplified it while watching her. She treated Hazelnut with so much love and was very responsive with her needs. She would send us pictures and notes regarding Hazelnut while we were away. We will always feel confident with Ariella watching our dog Hazelnut in the future and we highly recommend her to anyone and everyone!”
“The experience with Ruth U was dynamic for our fur baby Buddy. I truly appreciated getting videos of his ventures in a warm and loving environment. We will utilize their wonderful services in the future. We gave our tip in person yesterday at drop-off.”

About: I grew up with cats, actually! While I currently dont have the ability to adopt my own fuzzies again, I do help out with friends who go on vacations and things like that. **I also do bunnies! I was an ARBA registered judge and show rabbit breeder, 4H judge, and 4H instructor and animal trainer.** Pregnant and not allowed to change your kitty's potty? Or maybe youre like my friends and you have to be out of town for a vacation or family meeting, but cant take your fuzzies with you. Some cats do not do well with a boarding kennel situation, so skip the stress and giving them anxiety- hire someone to come check on them at home! Kittens to seniors, all are welcome- even the grumpy ones. Are they on a diet? Do they like tube treats? Even if they made a stinky, I will dump all of the litter out & wash the pan, then put the bag outside in the trash bin so that its not smelling up the house. History: My mother had a long haired tortie before I was born (she tolerated me as much as she was willing from what I was told) and when I was 4, we adopted a creamsicle boy from the neighbors (orange & white tabby). That cat was my best friend for 13 years before I had to say goodbye. We waited a bit, then went to the shelter and adopted a shorthair baby tortie that was really more of my mother's cat (like the previous tortie, although I didnt pick her because of the color). I'd drop in from college and even visit from out of state years later to take care of the tortie while my mother was on vacations. She was a very shy, quiet cat vs my creamsicle who was a big bold boy (he was just a massive cat, not overweight) and even though she knew who I was, I wasnt HER person, therefore my only purpose (to her) was food, water, and litterbox cleaning. Even though I used to play with her when she was younger, I respected her boundaries because in her defense, I *did* move out after the first few years of her life. She lived to be 16. Meanwhile I adopted a little white sock, white blaze, gray tabby girl just after college and had her for only 7 years before her number was called. She was a little purr machine cuddle bug until the day she took her final nap. After the loss of her and my dog, I personally havent had the time or housing requirements to be able to own pets again, so I do what I can to help other busy pet parents!
“Anna is truly amazing! She would pick up on my kittie habits and communicate with me very promptly when she feels there may be an issue - no matter how small or big. I really appreciated her attention to detail. Overall, Anna's communication is so timely, clear, and thoughtful. And I think that's a strength like none other. My cats also loved her, I don't think they even missed me. I normally feel bad asking the sitters to send me pictures because personally I think it could be a tad bit annoying, but Anna would send me pics when they are being particularly cute or show me how my cats are cuddling with her non-stop! TL;DR, I am traveling for a wedding next weekend, and I already reached out to her to see if she could help me again. I hope Anna can be my kitties' loving and caring aunt forever! Please don't move from NYC!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Anastasiia. She took amazing care of my cat Ruby while I was out of town for five days. She checked in every single day, sent the sweetest updates, and I could tell Ruby was comfortable and happy. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such great hands. When I got home, everything was spotless and Ruby was her usual playful self. I’ll definitely be booking her again next time I travel. Highly recommend!”
“Alexandra did a great job with our 17 year old cat. We were out of town for 3 days and came back to a very clean living space and a very content Isis. Would definitely recommend Alexandra for overnight sitting with your pet!”
“Ariella provides excellent cat sitting services. She is 100 percent reliable. She takes time to enjoy each cat- and understands their individual personalities and needs. The cats are very happy when she comes over- even greeting her on the stairs. We have been using Ariella for the past couple of years and will continue to use her. Highly recommend her if you want peace of mind.”
“Valeria was amazing staying with my 2 cats when i was away for a weekend! She took great care of them and sent picture updates everyday. She was also so easy to work with and flexible to my schedule - I almost had to cancel and she was able to work it out with me when I found out I didn't have to cancel! Will definitely have her come watch my boys again ☺️”
About: Former dog owner and shelter volunteer with over 15 years of experience. I’m a go-to sitter for friends and I’m an active runner on the Rockaway boardwalk.

“Stephanie and Brian are great pet sitters! I felt so comfortable knowing they were taking good care of my cat while I was away. They sent me updates and pictures and were very accommodating. Highly recommend them. Will definitely be rebooking with them in the future!”
“I was really nervous leaving my Sylvester because I never did anything like this before but I must say I would definitely use them again I felt like they were family instead of a sitter for my boy they really were happy to care for him and I was happy I chose them it made my first experience a pleasant one”
“Brittany took such good care of our Lucy, giving us updates and awesome (and very cute) pics along the stay. This is the first time we needed a cat sitter, so we were pretty stressed so I'm very grateful we found Brittany. I would highly recommend her to all. No question who we will contact when we need a sitter again in the future. Thank you! ❤ - Chris & Jane”
About: I am a 23 year old veterinary nurse, currentky working my way to vet school.I love all sorts of animals, but cats hold a special place in my heart! Cats are wonderful animals with unique and sometimes complicated personalities. Once they trust you, they can be some of the most loving little creatures. I've had cats all my life and some of my favorite patients are cats. Right now I don't have a cat, but I love my mom's cat a whole lot.
“Robert was absolutely wonderful with my cat. He is reliable, attentive, and clearly loves animals. He sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My cat can be a little particular, but she warmed up to him immediately - a true testament to his calm and caring approach. He took excellent care of her space, followed all instructions perfectly, and went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat, and that says it all. I would recommend Robert without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated cat sitter. I’ll definitely be booking him again!”

“Vanessa is a gem - responsive, polite, clean, caring, loving, and always available. We were looking for a pet sitter who could provide a loving and stable environment for our pup with separation anxiety, as we wanted to reduce his reliance on medication.

“Ingrid was absolutely amazing! She took fantastic care of our golden retriever on Thanksgiving.

About: I've always had animals growing up and I loved taking care of them. I have 10 years of experience taking care of my own pets. I made sure they were fed a balanced diet, they had their daily walks, they were upto date with their vaccines. I also made sure that they were well-groomed, given lots of love and attention and spoiled rotten with toys! I currently work full time but I am available anytime after 3pm to pet sit the little cuties and I am free anytime on the weekends. I do not have yard space but I am close to the beach and there are a few parks to take the dogs for a walk!
“What a lovely person - I’d give her 100 stars if that were an option. To explain, I had to go into my office LAST minute and at 1230 am it was my first time using this app and I posted requests for someone to basically dog sit for the same day- she was immediately responsive even though it was a last minute request. I saw she had already gotten consistent great reviews and I was worried to leave my 7 week old shih tsu (like a baby) with anyone ) -Jameeka she handles all dog ages - she was responsive, kept me updated throughout the day. I even got stuck in traffic on the way for pick up and was late she was fine. The top 3 reasons I give Jameeka 5 stars is because 1) she is the opposite of stressful and worked with my unique needs, 2) she has great communication skills snd 3) it is clear she is an expert - my puppy was returned perfectly she gave me some updates and my puppy was happy and fell right asleep because Jameeka ensured my puppy got play time and exercise time - thank you !”
“Robin was the BEST! She agreed to do a meet and greet with me and even brought her pups to meet my princess Honey. Even though I felt comfortable with her through our chats, meeting her in person beforehand put the cherry on top. Once booked, she took great care of of my Honey girl, sent so many photos and gave me cute updates while I was at work. This was my first booking and definitely will not be the last. She can absolutely be trusted with your fur babies. I’m so glad I took a chance as she made the experience worthwhile. Now my Honey has a home away from home!! Thank you Robin, see you again :)”
“Peggy was so communicative and accommodating for my dog Auri. She made sure she was comfortable right away and sent updates the whole time, even though it was only a couple hours. She took Auri on and hike and found space so she could run around. Thank you again for both of us!”
“Stephanie was absolutely wonderful with Odin! ❤️ She took such great care of him and treated him like he was her own. She was sweet, caring, and attentive, and I felt completely comfortable knowing Odin was in such good hands. 🐶🥰 He had a great time with her, and I’m so happy we found such a wonderful sitter. I would definitely recommend Stephanie and would happily have her watch Odin again! ❤️🐾”
“Our usual sitter who’s heaven sent is currently going through a personal trial and had to put a pause on dog sitting. So we turned to Rover and found Shanna. And we couldn’t be happier. She updated us throughout the day which made us feel at ease. She enjoys what’s she does and she’s such a sweetheart. We truly found another great sitter. Our dogs came home and went straight to their beds to take a nap. She played with them all day. She’s also very compassionate. She encountered an unexpected event and she updated us and actually mollified our concerns. There is something calming about someone who takes pride in what they do. And that is what Shanna was. And her mother and family are sweet. We will be booking with her again. And again……and again.”

I thrive off their unconditional love and I love to see them happy. Simple as that.
“Lauren was very accommodating when I had to reschedule my appointment and I was happy we could work out alternate plans. I was kept updated throughout Albert's stay and will reach out to Lauren again.”
“Michelle was amazing with Milo! This was our first time leaving him with someone else, so I was a little nervous, but she made the whole experience so much easier and more comfortable. She was very attentive, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs, which gave me a lot of reassurance. I really appreciated the updates and how she made sure Milo felt safe and cared for. When I picked him up, he was happy and relaxed, which means everything to me as a dog mom. It was clear he was in good hands the entire time. The pickup and drop-off process was also smooth and convenient, which I loved. Overall, I had a great experience and would absolutely trust Michelle with Milo again!”
“Trying to find someone to take care of our 2 boys was extremely difficult until we came across Erica, she and her husband Jon are amazing. Erica kept us informed through the whole stay of how they were doing and sent tons of pictures throughout the day. She knew how to take care of our little yorkie to our big crazy energetic husky!”
“Rachel & John were incredible with our energetic and playful puppy. Their beautiful dog, Kimbo, quickly became our pup's best friend and dealt with his young demeanor with patience. Our puppy returned home as tired as he does after a day at the dog park which is a huge luxury after a long day at work. Rachel was very communicative and flexible with our schedule, her home is spacious, clean and the backyard is a huge plus. Very lovely people generally, would love to book again in the future.”

About: My prominent pet care experience this year is with large dogs and kitties. Most of my dog experience is with big dogs, I’m happy to visit with small doggies too! Apart from pet care, I teach classes across the city (one hour classes throughout the week). It’s great when I have the opportunity to be with animals.

“Sam was great at taking care of our dog. She gave the right amount of updates and was always responsive when we needed to contact her. Our dog seems to have enjoyed her stay, loved the backyard and was always happy in the photos Sam shared. We will definitely try to book Sam again next time we need someone to look at our dog. Definitely recommend.”

“Gavriel was absolutely amazing with my dog, Blue! She accepted my last-minute booking without hesitation and was so accommodating when I needed to extend the stay due to an unexpected emergency. She kept me updated the entire time with messages and photos, which gave me real peace of mind. It’s clear she truly cares about the pets she watches. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter — highly recommend Gavriel to anyone looking for someone reliable and compassionate!”

“I needed to find a last minute sitter as my usual one is unavailable. She is local to me which is great. We arranged for a meet and greet with our dogs and all went well (her dogs are so sweet!). She is very accommodating to my dog's needs and after picking her up the next day, she was so exhausted from a great time with Lauren and her family (humans and pets). We will definitely be booking with Lauren again!”

“Diana was very responsive and professional with my stay for my young high energy dog. She sent adorable pictures very often which made me happy while I was away. Her home is spacious and clean, and there's a backyard which was perfect for my dog to go potty in the snowy weather during my trip. Would definitely recommend and book again! Thank you Diana!!”
