“Ekaterina and her family were amazing with our puppy. Lots of pictures and communication during the stay. She took excellent care of the puppy and puppy clearly enjoyed her visit. We would highly recommend Ekaterina and would love to have to watch our puppy again.”
“Yiqi took amazing care of my dog during a holiday, making sure he got plenty of playtime and attention in addition to his more basic needs like regular eating and potty breaks. Absolutely recommend!”
“Five stars for Jane! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I left my beloved pug, Lord Ginsberg, in Jane’s care while I traveled to Mexico, and I truly could not have asked for a better experience. Lord Ginsberg is not your average dog. He has his own routines, preferences, quirks, and very strong opinions about comfort. Jane understood all of that immediately. Her patience was absolutely legendary, and she took the time to learn his specific needs and little eccentricities without ever making me feel like I was asking too much. What meant so much to me was how communicative she was throughout my trip. She regularly sent adorable photos and videos of Ginsberg, which gave me tremendous peace of mind while I was away. Every update made it clear that he was happy, comfortable, and being genuinely cared for. Jane is not only responsible and attentive, she’s also warm, funny, and incredibly understanding. The best compliment I can give is that I could tell she truly enjoyed Lord Ginsberg’s company. She wasn’t just watching him, she was spending time with him and appreciating his unique little personality. She even came to understand his profound and unwavering love of cheese, which any true friend of Ginsberg quickly learns is a very important part of his worldview. When I came home, I found a happy, relaxed, well-cared-for pug, and that’s every pet parent’s dream. I can’t thank Jane enough for the care, kindness, humor, patience, and attention she showed him. Anytime I travel in the future, I will be hoping Jane is available to take care of Lord Ginsberg again. She has my highest recommendation.”
“This was my very first time using a dog sitter, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. My puppy, Kalii can definitely be a handful, full of energy and still learning the ropes, but Ziwei handled everything with so much patience, care, and experience. She made me feel completely at ease from the start, sending regular updates and photos that really helped ease my nerves. I’m so grateful for the care and attention she gave and will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend and thank you again!”
“Meg was wonderful and took excellent care of our (sometimes grumpy!) dog, Bruno. She has extensive experience with animals of all temperaments, was consistently responsive to messages, and proactively sent daily updates. While we were away, we had abundant peace of mind that Bruno was doing well and in caring hands. Most tellingly, when Meg dropped him off, Bruno was more interested in sniffing her and her car rather than saying hi to us, which to us epitomizes how great of a time he had in Meg’s care. She was very accommodating, generally as well as with drop off / pick-up, understanding of Bruno’s odd tendencies, and happy to indulge his absolute obsession with fetch. We will certainly be reaching out again in the future when we next need someone to look after our pup.”
“Pamela and her family were excellent. Milo is a very energetic puppy and they took wonderful care of him and helped him feel comfortable. He was a little nervous at first and she did everything to help him adjust. I got tons of updates and pictures during my trip. They would take him out and give him all the exercise he needed. They treated him like part of the family. This was our first time using Rover and it was an excellent experience. She has excellent communication and quick response. I would highly recommend Pamela as a sitter and would use her again.”
“Doris was very informative with lots of daily updates and photos. Responds in a timely fashion and was very friendly. Kobe has a new friend and will use her again”
“Great first experience leaving my 5 month-old puppy overnight with Kitty. She was very communicative, exchanging texts and sending pics. It helped me feel at ease being away for the weekend.”
“Emerald was sooo great with Autumn. She sent so many pictures and updates without me even having to ask. I knew Autumn was in good hands with her and Minty. 10/10 reccomend!”
“Michael was great with Tazz and kept me updated with him for the 5 days I was traveling. Tazz is a senior dog which has it own quirks and Michael was great handling all of them. I will be booking him again to watch my pup. Thanks Michael you rock!”
“Patricia established an immediate affectionate connection with our Dachshund, Melissa. She was professional, personable, patient and Melissa was cuddly and comfortable with Patricia who took excellent care of her, provided photos, communicated in a timely manner and earned our trust for repeated bookings.”
“Second time using Teraesa and I must say…her consistency will keep me coming back. Her amazing communication, constant checking in and willingness to go above and beyond says it all for me. She is a “super host” as far as Jazzy and I are concerned. My dog always comes home happier than when I left her and that says alot. Thank you Teraesa…you are officially and forever my dog-sitter!”
“Daisy had another great stay with Rachel. She played with Teddy in the backyard with all the snow - it was very cute. Always sends photo updates. Highly recommended”
“Ravon was fantastic! Ziggy really warmed up to her and her dogs and had a great time. She was very responsive and shared pictures and updates periodically. Would book her again!”
“Sam was amazing! We had never left Penelope with any sitter and Sam made us feel very comfortable and confident. She sent us pictures as well which made us feel at ease. We definitely plan to have Penelope stay with Sam again in the future. Thank you, Sam!”
“Lina was very responsive and flexible with pick up/drop off times. My kittens seemed pretty comfortable around her. She had some toys and supplies, if you happen to forget to bring stuff, like a litterbox, etc. Would book her again!”
“Tallin was a truly wonderful dogsitter! I've left my dog with very few sitters before, so I was a bit anxious about leaving him with a stranger, but Tallin put me right at ease with twice-daily updates and lots of photos. I will absolutely try to book with her again next time I need a sitter!”
“Merin was AMAZING!! I really felt Moose was being well taken care of and left me with such peace of mind while on vacation. She was super thorough, gave constant updates, and reached out with any questions/concerns. Hands down we found our go to sitter which is the best feeling knowing I have someone to trust to take care of Moose when I need a little R&R! Thank you!!”
“Kecia was excellent. She is incredibly communicative and our Hazel loved her. We were worried with it being our first time away from Hazel, but she enjoyed her stay with Kecia very much. I’d trust Kecia with my baby any time!”

About: Hi! I'm Janis—a current college student on a gap semester, excited to meet your pet(s)! I’ve been caring for all kinds of animals since I was young—dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish—you name it! Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide range of dogs— from energetic puppies to senior dogs, as well as large breeds like Pit Bulls, Samoyeds, and Labradors. I am open to making exceptions for some large breeds depending on their behavior and after a meet-and-greet. I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter, where I gained experience walking and handling anxious dogs. My experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant has given me strong familiarity with handling medications, special diets, and injury care. I’m highly attentive, detail-oriented, and comfortable following specific care instructions to ensure your pet’s safety and well-being. I’m very responsive and make sure pet parents always feel connected by sending frequent photo and video updates. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and bond with them through the activities they enjoy most. I’m currently on a gap semester, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I’m able to spend most of the day with them, with exceptions for errands, but they will never be left alone, as I live with family. I provide at least 2–3 walks or potty breaks per day, and I’m happy to adjust based on your pet’s needs and routine. I also accept last-minute bookings whenever possible! I prioritize safety, comfort, and clear communication at all times. I’m primarily based in Brooklyn, where I live in a house with a fenced front yard and provide most of my pet care services. I also occasionally stay at a second home in Pasadena, Maryland with a large fenced backyard and offer care locally there when I’m in the area. I do not transport pets between locations– services are always provided in one consistent environment to ensure your pet’s comfort and safety. During walks, I take a cautious approach by starting in quieter areas with minimal traffic to help pets feel secure, especially in new environments. I always pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. I live with my family, so pets will never be left alone if I had to run out, and I always communicate this clearly with owners ahead of time. I currently don’t have other pets in my Brooklyn home aside from fish, which allows me to give your pet my full attention. I can also follow instructions like crating or separating pets if needed.
“Barbara took such great care of my kitties!! She sent lots of photos and videos during her visits 💜 The food/water/litter boxes were all well kept when I got home and my babies seem happy and well taken care of! Will definitely be reaching out again for any future visits 😊”
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was little. At age 7 I had two cats Cookie and Mimi they’re were my best friends. After gaining experience in caring for my own cats I started to pet sit neighbors, friends, and family members cats. I also have experience with kittens, senior cats, and disabled cats.
About: My neighbors have a total of 6 cats! Whenever they go away, I’m always the first contact to cat sit! I have always had a soft spot for cats and LOVE to respect their space and time!
“Had a great experience with Lucy minding my duo. On time, sent good updates, took care of everything I described, and clearly gave my cats sweet attention. Will definitely consider for my next trip.”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple cats/kittens for a few years now. I have had friends and family rely on me to come take care of their cats and watch over them while they’re busy. I am playful, attentive, and caring and i will do everything to ensure your baby’s safety.
“Aleksander is a life saver. He made himself available with very short notice to drop in on my cat while I was out of town. He is friendly and conscientious.”
About: I've had pets literally my entire life, and I'm obsessed with animals. I've cared for cats, dogs, bunnies, birds, rats, fish and hamsters. I am TNR certified, have extensive volunteer experience, care for a local street cat colony, have fostered, and have four rescue cats of my own. I am comfortable with literally any cat, and have a knack for helping to socialize shy or reluctant cats. I am currently in-between jobs, so have plenty of time to dedicate to my furry friends! Pet care is a daily part of my routine in general. Pets mean everything to me- they're family. It's the same principle as when I worked in nursing homes- I treat your pet the way I would want mine to be treated.
“Tia was absolutely fantastic! She visited our cat for a week and kept us updated every step of the way while we were gone so no one worried. She is Very responsive great on communication, trustworthy, attentive, shows up on time and clearly loves animals 🐱. Overall a good person. Would definitely recommend her.”
About: I bring nine years of dedicated pet-care experience, primarily with my Siberian Husky, a breed known for its intelligence, energy, and unique behavioral needs. My background also includes occasional care for cats, giving me a well-rounded understanding of feline routines and temperaments. Whether it’s exercise, enrichment, or calm companionship, I’m committed to providing reliable, attentive, and compassionate care for every pet. I have flexible hours during the warmer months and love getting outside with my energetic Siberian Husky for regular walks and grooming. I can accept one-time bookings easily, though reoccurring schedules for walking should be discussed in advance since my availability may be limited. During November through April, walking services are more weather-dependent and may not always be open. Your dog is welcomed into a calm, dog-friendly home where they will have attention, companionship, and structure. Crate-comfort for short periods is important, especially for pups who may get anxious when left alone for quick errands. Day sitting is available for a minimum of 7 hours within a 14-16 hour day (pet needs to do well 8 hours overnight), with a maximum 3-hour break for other tasks; usually in the morning (this also applies to boarding). Overnight stays are generally limited to once every 3 booked days. I remain mindful of each pet’s boundaries and training. Please provide a clear list of your expectations for each home visit. • Furniture rules will match what they’re used to at home • Resource guarding or aggression cannot be accommodated for everyone’s safety My philosophy is simple: a dog should feel respected, understood, and appreciated every step of the way. ❤️
“We felt comfortable having Andy come feed and check in on our cats while we were away. He always checked in on visits and updated us while we were away and even come over on Christmas even though he was a few neighborhoods away. We night recommended him.”
“Elif was a pleasure to have as a sitter for my 2 cats. We were on vacation for 2 weeks and she took such great care of them. I got daily updates and pics of my boys and their food and water and even their playtime. We will definitely be using Elif to watch out for babies in the future!!!!! Highly recommend this sitter!!!”
“My cat always hides but apparently not for Basya, whom she loved so much ! Left the apartment perfect and litter was cleaned very neatly. I'm so happy my cat has someone reliable and loving to watch her.”
“Travis is great! Always reliable and communicative. My cats don’t really like other people, but Travis always makes sure to find them and make sure they’re doing ok.”
“I can’t recommend Jackey enough. She is truly wonderful, kind, and so thoughtful. She sent regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. She was always responsive and communicative. Most importantly, she was incredibly sweet and patient with my cat, who isn’t the easiest and is currently going through a lot of changes in his life. It was clear she really cared about his comfort and emotional well-being, not just the basics. I came home to a calm, well-cared-for cat, and that means everything to me. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable animal person.”

“This was my first time my dog went to doggy day care. Yiqi assured me many times my dog, Popcorn, will be fine. She updated me throughout the day with pictures and videos of him - that gave me a peace of mind. She send me texts about how he was when I left him and pretty soon Popcorn was very comfortable in Yiqi's house. I love how her daughter was so into playing with Popcorn which helps him relax and feel comfortable. I appreciate Yiqi's understanding when I was running late - she was not rushing me. When I finally picked up Popcorn - she gave me the latest update with what she did with Popcorn and how his walk was. All in all - Yiqi was very professional and loving to my dog and myself. The constant updates was a bonus to help me ease into Doggy Day Care. I have an upcoming trip so I will be considering leaving Popcorn with her and her family that week.”
“We know our Cody boy had a great day when he runs up and hugs us at pick up and then immediately falls asleep in the car! From start to finish, Ziwei was amazing. She was outside waiting for us upon pickup, sent tons of photos and videos throughout the day, and waited for us when we came to pick up our boy. Incredibly friendly, professional, and courteous. Can't wait to work with her again!”
“Doris is a very sweet and caring person. She took a great care of my Molly. She gave my girl lots of attention and took her out for walks. I’ll definitely get back to Doris for more help with my girl.”
“Jane was awesome and Bento loved his stay. Jane was a great communicator and sent lots of photo and video updates throughout the stay. I would highly recommend.”
“I was worried that my young puppy would be too much, but Shuang did amazing with her! Shuang and her husband were very patient and understanding, and they paid a lot of attention to my pup and to my care instructions and concerns.”
“Katarina is the absolute best! Molly ran into her house today to see her and couldn’t wait to play with her. Molly gets so excited to see Katarina and is such a happy puppy when she gets to spend the day with Katarina. We feel so secure and confident when Molly spends the day with Katarina and we are so fortunate to have found her on Rover. Katarina is caring and diligent and an amazing dog sitter. We highly recommend Katarina as a dog sitter for your fur babies. She is awesome!”
“Kitty always comes through when we’re in a tight spot - I needed to visit the dentist today and scout spent the afternoon hanging out with Kitty. Always a five star report from scout and we’ve already booked the next stay!”
“Chelsie is an extraordinary caring person. I was absolutely worry about leaving my fur baby for the first time and since I dropped him off I felt a very good caring connection and throughout the entire stay I was reassured at all times! I honestly can never pay her enough for all her hard work Ps. Rocky made a furiend!”
About: *I only take one pet at a time for boarding and day care (two if they are in the same family). For additional pets, please inquire. My rates are firm and reflect the level of care I will provide* I know the feeling of never wanting to leave your fur baby behind. Wherever I went, if I couldn’t take my pets with me, then I would rather not go at all. But sometimes when work calls or when you simply need a little “me” time, we need help from someone we can trust to love and care for our pets while we’re away. I would love to be that person for you! My pet care experience comes from working at and caring for shelter animals, caring for stray cats, fostering cats and dogs, and loving my own beloved pets (My two dogs that have since passed - Terri, 18, Maple, 12, and cat - August, 4). I’m fear-free certified and have extensive experience caring for senior dogs and pets with special needs (especially cushings, CHF, CCD). I can help with giving oral medications and am open to assisting with other needs if you’re willing to teach. If your pet knows any commands or is in training, I’m happy to help reinforce their skills too (just let me know!). In addition to my experience above, I was also featured on NY1’s New Yorker of the week segment for my volunteer work at Animal Haven, an animal shelter based in Manhattan. My home is super senior-dog friendly with rugs all around the house so your pups don’t slip, pet oxygen for emergencies, plus strollers for pets with special needs. I work remote and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I offer pet day care, house sitting, and boarding. Please see my calendar for availability. HOUSE SITTING - overnight stays in your home DROP INS - 30 minutes and I’ll do whatever is needed in that time. This could be a combination of feeding, meds, walking, indoor playtime, etc. WALKS - 30 minutes, strictly outdoors walking, ideal for high-energy, active dogs. BOARDING - Your dog stays overnight at my place. I do a minimum of 2-4 walks a day, depending on your dogs needs. Owners must provide food for their pets, but I can also accommodate for an added fee of $5 per day (includes treats/meals). Please ask about food options and provide allergy info + food preferences if interested in that service. DAY CARE - Drop off for day care is between 7-9am and pick up is between 4-6pm. I will love and care for your pet the way you do for them. I treat every animal I care for like family, providing patience, space, and extra attention as needed. I’m super safety conscious and keen on details, so if there are any particular habits, routines, or schedules you’d like me to follow, if your pet is trained or undergoing training and there’s anything you want me to reinforce, or if your pet has special needs and requires special care, please reach out to me with those details. I am always willing and more than happy to work with you to make sure they are cared for and to give you peace of mind. Rest assured, you’ll be getting plenty of updates and photos from me!
About: Over 10 years of experience training and caring for small and large dogs including my own gentle giant. We have a laid back home with a fenced yard and I love to take pups for walks around the neighborhood or to the dog park to socialize. The most important thing is to give our pups the best care they need and set them up for success! For my own dog, we keep a regular routine for feeding and exercise. The same will apply to your dog! From you, I need to know what your dog is used to and needs so I can give them the best care. I have a fenced backyard and ability to leash dogs on the front porch for people watching. My own dog is very friendly loves to play when not snoozing.
“Patricia took care of my 2 month old puppy, Honor on weekdays while I was at work until he turned 5 months old. Patricia did a great job letting him out in the fenced in backyard for potty training. She knew how to correct his puppy biting. She made sure that she fed him and mixed in peanut butter to ensure that he ate his food. She did a wonderful job taking care of Honor for the last 3 months. He was well taken care of. Also, her son Teo loves playing with Honor. He got socialized well when Patricia takes Honor with her to pick up her son. I would book her again in the future.”
“Vivian really took care of Jayce like her own pooch. She’s very mindful and attentive to Jayce, especially with his anxiety she is very caring and really made him feel comfortable!”
About: I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for them. I am patient, attentive, and responsible with feeding, walks, routines, playtime, and giving pets affection and attention based on their personality and comfort level. I understand that every pet is different and try to help them feel relaxed and secure while their owners are away. I also have experience caring for caged birds at home, so I am especially mindful about safety and supervision around animals. I currently have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home, which allows me to give pets attention, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I try to keep pets comfortable and follow their normal routines as closely as possible. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment for pets. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, and each pet’s comfort level and personality.
“Lina provided exceptional care for my baby, Viper. From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in good hands. She not only tended to his basic needs but also showered him with love and attention. It was evident that she genuinely cared for his well-being and treated him as if he were her own. Throughout his stay, Lina kept me updated with photos and messages, which eased my mind and allowed me to enjoy my time away knowing Viper was happy and content. Additionally, her knowledge and expertise in handling dogs reassured me that Viper was receiving the best care possible. I highly recommend Lina to anyone in need of a responsible and caring pet sitter.”

About: When I was a child my family owned and cared for dogs, horses, bunnies, and chickens which meant I became an animal caretaker at a very young age. In addition to helping to feed, groom, and clean up after our pets, I was aIso responsible for administering our dog’s daily diabetes insulin. My childhood prepared me well for becoming a dog mom to a longhaired dapple Dachshund in early 2021. I cannot imagine my life without him and cannot wait for your furbaby to become his furbuddy! I'm also the proud owner of Boogs & Boop, a small business specializing in pet accessories, with a portion of proceeds donated to supporting animal shelters and dogs in need. This commitment reflects my deep passion for caring for dogs and their well being. I work full time from home, so Dog Mom is my 24/7 job title. I am conveniently located near a park so go on at least two walks a day, weather permitting. DAYCARE CLIENTS PLEASE NOTE: 1. Daycare refers to drop off between 8-9am and 5-6pm, a 8-hour period. 2. Pick-up and drop-off times for Daycare must be scheduled in advance through direct message. 2. Late arrivals of more than 30 minutes will be charged an additional $5 per 30 minutes that you are late. Late arrivals risk interfering with other appointments, so this fee helps to accommodate that change. 3. Drop offs before 8am are subject to an Early Drop-off Fee of $10 per hour. 4. Pick up after 6pm are subject to a Late Pick-up Fee of $10 per hour. 5. Pick up after 9pm is considered boarding which is subject to double my Daycare rate. HOUSE-SITTING CLIENTS PLEASE NOTE: During house sits, I typically continue my normal schedule with other pet care clients (walks, drop-ins, etc.), so I may be out of the home for portions of the day. If your pet requires near-constant or 24/7 care, please let me know in advance. I may be able to accommodate, but this would require adjustments for my own dog and existing clients and may involve an additional fee. I care for pets in my home since I also have my furbaby to attend to. This means there’s always healthy treats, pee pads, dog wipes, and pet first aid products on hand. I understand that being away from your furbaby can be nerve-wracking, but you can rest assured that I will provide clear communication and photo updates when your pet is in my care. I do not have an attached yard, but the park is a hop, skip, and a jump away, so it’s easy to take potty breaks whenever necessary. PLEASE NOTE: 1. Please arrive with your pet on a leash. I am a strong advocate for pet safety and leash laws. 2. Due to Covid-19 precautions, I do not allow guests into my home, but would be happy to meet you downstairs at drop-off and pick-up times. 3. I will ALWAYS send photos throughout the appointment, even if not directly requested. INCLEMENT WEATHER DISCLAIMER: I take all weather advisories seriously. When the heat index is above 90°F degrees or windchill is below 20°F walks will be cut short for your pet's safety and for my own. Walks will consist of “doing their business” then returning indoors. Regular service is maintained in the rain, but will be postponed due to thunder, lightning, or blizzards. Walks may be early or delayed depending on the forecast. I will always communicate with dog owners if a change of plan is necessary due to dangerous weather and temperatures. Thank you for your understanding.
About: I've been around dogs since I was a baby. Everyone in my family has had multiple dogs throughout my life, including me. I have experience walking, feeding and taking overall care of all dogs in my family. I'm currently unemployed and looking for a job at a Vet clinic to get more experience in the field! I will be attending school to become a Vet Tech in the spring. I do have a puppy of my own that I need to take time out of the day to be with but I am readily available most of the time and can do multiple drop-ins / walks throughout the day. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby safe. I can also crate your dog or section off a part of the house for them if needed :)
About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs. I have babysat and walked friends and family’s pets, and have always had a connection with animals. I am attentive, reliable, caring, and i’m committed to keeping your dog safe, happy, and exercised. I am so excited to spend some time with your babies! I have an open schedule. I am available from Monday-Sunday from 12-8, and can make up to two visits a day. Please message me at least a day beforehand, thank you! I will not be keeping pets at my house or stay overnight at a clients, but I will ask that you let me know of your pets medical needs, emergency contacts, vet info, etc so I can insure their safety as well as mine. And please let me know of any habits or interests of your pets! thank you!
“If you are not booking Shay to sit your dog, you are doing yourselves a disservice. This is the second time we have used Shay's services within the past year; and like the first time, she did not disappoint. Prompt, informative, courteous and most importantly loving to our 2 shihtzus. They in turn respond well to her. Max is temperamental and prone to the occasional nip. But max loves Shay, permitting her to rub his belly (a great sign of trust) Fluffy is always in need of human contact and he got that by sitting next to or on Shay 😆 Shay kept us informed about her arrivals, walks, and feedings. Sending pictures and videos. My girlfriend wanted no one else to take care of our pups while we were away. She said, "I love her (shay) aura, her vibe, the dogs trust her and are comfortable with her." We were able to enjoy our vacation without worry or concern. Thank you Shay. Max and Fluffy thank you for taking great care with them🥰”

I provide at least 2–3 walks or potty breaks per day, and I’m happy to adjust based on your pet’s needs and routine. I also accept last-minute bookings whenever possible! I prioritize safety, comfort, and clear communication at all times. I’m primarily based in Brooklyn, where I live in a house with a fenced front yard and provide most of my pet care services. I also occasionally stay at a second home in Pasadena, Maryland with a large fenced backyard and offer care locally there when I’m in the area. I do not transport pets between locations– services are always provided in one consistent environment to ensure your pet’s comfort and safety. During walks, I take a cautious approach by starting in quieter areas with minimal traffic to help pets feel secure, especially in new environments. I always pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. I live with my family, so pets will never be left alone if I had to run out, and I always communicate this clearly with owners ahead of time. I currently don’t have other pets in my Brooklyn home aside from fish, which allows me to give your pet my full attention. I can also follow instructions like crating or separating pets if needed.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a child. I have experience of working with dogs of any age: little puppies to senior dogs. I enjoy taking care of animals and bringing them joy during walks and play dates. I am currently a on my last year of high school and due to that I have lots of free time. I am usually home by 12pm and have rest of the day to take care of pets. Except Saturdays since I work once a week. I have a doggy park 10 minutes away from my house where other dogs can become a company for a pet. If dog is not allowed/does not like being in contact with other animals the rest of the park can become a great place for walks and play dates.
“Kadeisha is a lifesaver! We needed help last minute with our babies and usually have them in boarding, but never again - Kadeisha is our go-to from now on. She not only braved extreme cold weather without complaint, but our dogs loved her immediately. Our dogs are skittish of humans because of their past, but they felt comfortable with her right away. AND the pictures she takes are another level - our dogs look like models! 🤣 We can't wait to use her for boarding and daycare going forward.”
“Alex was great with my male Bernese Mountain Dog weighing 130 pounds. He handled my dog confidently and calmly, which is especially important given his size. We live in a densely populated area, and Alex did an excellent job managing walks safely and responsibly around people and distractions. I felt very comfortable trusting him with my dog and would absolutely recommend him to anyone with a large breed.”

“Ekaterina and her family were amazing with our puppy. Lots of pictures and communication during the stay. She took excellent care of the puppy and puppy clearly enjoyed her visit. We would highly recommend Ekaterina and would love to have to watch our puppy again.”
“Yiqi took amazing care of my dog during a holiday, making sure he got plenty of playtime and attention in addition to his more basic needs like regular eating and potty breaks. Absolutely recommend!”
“Meg was wonderful and took excellent care of our (sometimes grumpy!) dog, Bruno. She has extensive experience with animals of all temperaments, was consistently responsive to messages, and proactively sent daily updates. While we were away, we had abundant peace of mind that Bruno was doing well and in caring hands. Most tellingly, when Meg dropped him off, Bruno was more interested in sniffing her and her car rather than saying hi to us, which to us epitomizes how great of a time he had in Meg’s care. She was very accommodating, generally as well as with drop off / pick-up, understanding of Bruno’s odd tendencies, and happy to indulge his absolute obsession with fetch. We will certainly be reaching out again in the future when we next need someone to look after our pup.”
“Pamela and her family were excellent. Milo is a very energetic puppy and they took wonderful care of him and helped him feel comfortable. He was a little nervous at first and she did everything to help him adjust. I got tons of updates and pictures during my trip. They would take him out and give him all the exercise he needed. They treated him like part of the family. This was our first time using Rover and it was an excellent experience. She has excellent communication and quick response. I would highly recommend Pamela as a sitter and would use her again.”
“Patricia established an immediate affectionate connection with our Dachshund, Melissa. She was professional, personable, patient and Melissa was cuddly and comfortable with Patricia who took excellent care of her, provided photos, communicated in a timely manner and earned our trust for repeated bookings.”
“Daisy had another great stay with Rachel. She played with Teddy in the backyard with all the snow - it was very cute. Always sends photo updates. Highly recommended”
“Sam was amazing! We had never left Penelope with any sitter and Sam made us feel very comfortable and confident. She sent us pictures as well which made us feel at ease. We definitely plan to have Penelope stay with Sam again in the future. Thank you, Sam!”
“Renzo took great care of my little Xina while I was away. This was the first time I left my dog for an extended period of time and Renzo made me feel at ease from the moment I dropped her off in his care. He sent tons of photos and videos daily and I knew my pup was sad to leave his care. I think she loved him more than me! I will definitely be using Renzo's services again.”
“Deanna is fantastic! We left Ferris with her during our vacation to Mexico and he loved it. We got several updates and photos and he was very calm and relaxed upon pick up.”
“Joe and his family were fantastic. We have a frail old dog who needs some special care. They have an old dog and understand. They took great care of Peanut and sent a lot of pictures and notes about how things were going that made us feel comfortable while we were away. I strongly recommend.”
“Sara was wonderful and caring sitter I left my dog dachshund (anxious and attached highly to me) 7 years at her place and he was in heaven! When I picked up my dog he was very relaxed like he was the one who was on vacay! We continue to use Sara services as she is 💯 will make sure your pup is content and happy. Thank you Sara!”
“Erica was amazing with my girl Sweet Potato! She was super responsive when I needed a sitter in a pinch, and was communicative throughout her week-long boarding, putting me at ease throughout. I will definitely request Erica to take great care of my kid in the future.”
“Our puppy Mo came back so happy and healthy! We appreciate Megan so much we can tell Mo had an amazing time and she sent us a lot of pictures the whole time! Would definitely rehire her! Her family was so kind as well! Mo came back acting even better than when we left her!”
“Erica and her husband were amazing! They have a huge yard and are very knowledgeable and friendly. Erica is amazing at giving updates. I received lots or pictures, videos and general info about how my dog was doing. She even helped me when we discovered my dog was biting her tail and was able to get her all settled while she was there. I would gladly send my dog back to her any time and highly recommend her to anyone in the area looking for a sitter!”
“First time booking on Rover. Elaine is very accommodating and I was able to book her on short notice. I have a six month old pug puppy who is very energetic and just got a neuter surgery, and she was able to accommodate his needs and care for him. She sent photos while I was away, mainly of him napping so I know he was tired out. She provided feedback on his pulling behaviors on walks and suggested different types of harnesses. I will definitely book her again, and thank you, Elaine!”
“Eroxis was so sweet with our cat while we were away for the holidays. He had recently been diagnosed with diabetes, which was a big change for us, so we found ourselves looking for a boarder on short notice. She had no problems giving him his insulin shots and kept us updated on all of his fun times.”
“Kevin was AMAZING with our girl Lily!!! Kevin and their dog Reuben were perfect hosts, Lily absolutely loved her stay :). We got regular updates with great photos and videos, it was so nice to see what a great time she was having! Thank you Kevin -- we would absolutely rebook if there was ever a future need!”
“So thankful to Sydney for her kindness and care looking after Dante over a long weekend. She was prompt, responsive, and professional. She sent us daily updates and photos that we looked forward to seeing as a family. Highly recommend.”
“My 2 Cairn Terriers had a lovely stay with Stephanie, they came home tired, happy and healthy. I highly recommend Stephanie and will definitely reach out to her when we plan another trip away.”
