“We had great communication with Shirley throughout the entire process. We did a meet and greet before the stay, and she asked thoughtful questions beforehand to really get to know our dog. During the stay, she shared lots of photos and videos, which we truly appreciated. She was also very flexible and accommodating when we had to change our plans due to the snowstorm. Highly recommend!”
“Juan did an amazing job with communication and care for my dog Cassius. He is always updating us with pictures and letting us know how Cassius is doing. He also responds very fast and was able to watch Cassius on short notice. I strongly suggest anyone that wants to make sure their pup is being taken care of in good hands to book with Juan.”

“Veronica was absolutely incredible! I left my dog at her house for boarding for four days, and she made me feel so comfortable. She clearly loved my dog so much, sent me so many pictures, kept me updated, and made sure I was stress free while I was away and kept my girl so so happy. I Highly recommend!!! Best pet sitter I have ever had by far”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Emily made it such a great experience. She took great care of Lolah from April 1–11 and sent photo updates that made me feel at ease while I was away. Lolah was clearly in good hands. I would definitely book with her again—highly recommend!”

Ryan sent several pictures not to mention asking questions pertaining to my dogs needs. He is an excellent dog sitter. Trust me when I tell you booking him is a fantastic choice!!!”

It’s not easy trusting someone with your pet, but Dan made it effortless. Her communication was top-notch, and it was clear Karley was not only well cared for, but genuinely comfortable and happy. We had zero worries the entire time, and that says everything. I would highly recommend Dan to anyone looking for someone reliable, attentive, and truly caring. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“My first Rover experience and it was GREAT!!! Omar agreed to meet prior and from there it was a no brainer. Lizso took some time to warm up and settled right in. Daily pics and videos of playtime, naps and multiple walks confirmed I made the right choice. Thank you Omar!!!”

She visited them every day, and did everything we recommended, she fed them and cleaned litter boxes everyday as well as was on top of their water and feeder. She also played everyday with them with their favorites toys, they loved playing with the laser pointer with her. Kittens were happy all times. Lori did an amazing job inclusive visiting cats during the blizzard. We are happy with her and would recommend her.”
About: I started working with pets at the start of the pandemic, when my mom surprised the household with an energetic and anxious goldendoodle. He was 50 pounds and 5 feet long, and insisted on peeing in every corner of the house. I dedicated myself to training him, and he now serves as a service animal for mental health disorders. In the last six years, I have worked with dogs of all breeds and sizes, rabbits, birds, and cats. I can't wait to get to know your fur-baby :) I am available everyday between the hours of 9:00am - 3:00pm, but am able to make other arrangements if needed. Please feel free to contact me if amended hours are needed! My services include providing multiple daily walks, food, potty breaks, and playtime with your pet (dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds) in your home. I am also able to train pets at all levels of obedience to perform a series of tricks ranging from sit to retrieving medications.
“Jennifer did a great job with my two senior kitties who, while social, are not used to being taken care of by strangers. My shyer cat immediately took a liking to her, and I came home to two calm cats simply happy to see me -- no cat-grudges to be had. Jennifer was quick with communication, and reached out to let me know when my dry-food auto feeders were being wonky, even though I told her she didn't have to worry about the dry food. Overall, a great experience!”
“The cats like Kamila more than they like me :) Kamila has been soo attentive to the kitties and to my care instructions. Plus she has shared her feline expertise with me, which will make me a better cat person.”
“Ana did a great job taking care of our kitties, even though they are super shy and hid most of the time. She went above and beyond looking for them and making sure they were safe! Absolutely will ask for her help again in the future.”
“Sally is so amazing with my babies. She boarded my cats in her home when I went on vacation. They came home so soft and had a spa vacation of their own. She must have bushed them for hours. So cute!! They were extremely happy there and I’m so glad I have a trusted sitter for them when I travel now.”
“Ari was a great first experience using Rover. He took great care of my cats and offered to do a "meet and greet" beforehand where I was able to show him everything and introduce the kitties. I'd recommend him to you if you're looking for drop-in pet care.”

As a digital artist who works from home I tend to find myself with a lot of energy left and lots of times I would rather spend with animals and being active at that. As a husky owner and a dog that needs lots of attention and walks, my dog is my best friend. He runs with me a lot, and I care for my dog as well as my other pets very attentive, extremely nurturing (it’s a habit), and with so much play time.

I didn’t have to worry at all because she kept me informed by sending videos and pictures daily ??. I would highly recommend Raiysa to care for any pet that you have. She has definitely gained a permanent client in me. She would surely be my go to person whenever I’m on vacation.”
About: Hi! I’m Amae — a lifelong animal lover who truly grew up surrounded by pets. I was raised with a sweet pit bull and two cats, so caring for animals has always been a natural (and happy) part of my life. I also have experience helping my mom with babysitting and pet care through the app, so I understand the importance of trust, communication, and consistency when caring for someone else’s fur babies. I’m currently a responsible college student who loves being around animals in my free time. Right now, I’m also a bunny mom, so I’m used to routines, gentle handling, and giving lots of love and attention. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away, I’ll treat them like family. I know how special pets are, and I’d be happy to help care for yours 🐶🐱🐰✨ Pet care is already a built-in part of my daily routine. Every day, I make time to feed and play with my cat, as well as care for my bunny. That means fresh food and water, enrichment time, cleaning their spaces, and making sure they’re both getting attention and affection. I really value creating a calm, consistent routine for animals, so checking in on them throughout the day has just become second nature to me. In other people’s homes, I respect house rules, keep things tidy, and maintain clear communication so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether it’s checking collars and leashes before walks, monitoring playtime, or making sure they have fresh water. I treat every pet with the same level of care and attention I give my own.

I’m excited to keep your best friend company and provide the best of care. Animals are the greatest best friends we could ask for and their company fills our lives with love.

I look forward to caring for your fur baby around my work schedule and I am flexible in working out times. I currently live in an apartment and have two cats of my own. Cuddles and play time is a must daily! Let’s make sure your babies stay active in their routines and are never lonely.
About: Cat care is newer to me since I grew up with a dog. But ever since I started taking care of my brothers cats almost 8 years ago now I’ve become hooked! I don’t have my own little one just yet so I’d love to fill that space by caring for your cat(s). I regularly take care of my neighbor’s rescue senior cat. I do it all, from daily chores to medicine administration to lots of cuddles! I can assure you that your little one will be loved and cared for during our time together! 🐱💗

“Julia was great! We left our puppy Sonny with her one afternoon until the afternoon the next day and she kept sending us updates and pictures of him having fun. This made us feel so good knowing that she was taking the best care of him and that he was happy. We would definitely recommend and use Julia again.”
“Daisy was extremely friendly and loving to Lily. She sent me a photo and video of Lily’s progress during her 4 hour visit. This was my first visit and experience with Daisy and I found myself feeling safe and comfortable leaving Lily with her. Lily was unsure of the new environment, but Daisy made it a point to try and make her feel comfortable and safe. Regardless of Lily‘s complaining (howling) she liked Daisy. I definitely will use her again to take care of my Lily.”
“It was my first time leaving blue in doggy daycare And he looks very happy. Looks like he’s been taken care of and he had a good time over there from the pictures that I see. I had a little hesitation, but I can see that there was no reason for me to hesitate. I will definitely keep using her for all my dog sitting needs.”

I felt completely confident leaving my dog with her, and I could see how happy and comfortable he was the entire time. I highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for reliable, trustworthy, and top-quality care. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“I left my labradoodle, Ramona, with Valentina and her 4-year-old son for few hours, and honestly, she had the best time. From the start, Ramona felt completely at home — she got tons of love, playtime, and cuddles. Valentina was amazing and kept me updated with sweet pictures and little messages, which really put my mind at ease. Her son was the perfect little playmate, full of energy but so gentle and caring with Ramona. They played, ran around, and Ramona clearly loved all the extra attention. When I picked her up, she was happy, calm, and probably would’ve stayed even longer if she could! I highly recommend Valentina and her sweet son if you need someone loving and trustworthy to watch your dog. 5/5 paws from Ramona! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾”

About: I grew up in a family who loved and hosted multiple breeds of dogs and cats. Pets deserve someone like myself to fill in to be cared for. I am available for walks and sitting on weekends/ It is important though, that dogs not be incessant barkers, as I live in an apartment. Dogs must be trained to walk outside and/or use wee pads seamlessly. Dogs will be walked, fed, entertained and loved. Cats must not be destructive to furniture or other pets. I have been a dog mom for decades so I am very in tune with safety and fun for the pets .

About: I grew up in Washington DC and I graduated from Wesleyan University in 2024. Since then, I have been preparing for my medical school applications. I am a certified EMT and I recently took my MCAT. Before I wanted to be a doctor I dreamed of being a veterinarian. I wanted to be around animals and care for them so badly that my parents signed me up for Cub Creek Science Camp (an animal camp). After two years as a camper, I got the opportunity to be an Animal Specialist in Training! This came with the responsibility of caring after the animals at the camp and leading activities for the campers. I grew always having dogs around the house and being at animal camp allowed me to learn about caring for all animals (cats, snakes, rodents, birds, etc.). I approach animal care with the utmost responsibility and care. Please note, I am very familiar and comfortable with specialized care. I have two senior dogs and one of them is blind. I am currently in the application process for medical school so I have a lot of flexibility and time in my schedule to look after your pups and kitties! I care for my pets daily and ensure they have everything they need to be happy and healthy. I love animals and approach every pet the same way I do my own. I want to gain an understanding of your pets’ regular routine and replicate that so they feel the most comfortable once I begin caring for them.
About: I am a highly skilled pet caregiver based in the Bronx with extensive experience in managing the care of dogs and cats in the city and the boroughs. I have successfully handled anxious and high-energy pets, as well as animals with complex dietary needs and challenging leash behaviors. I am more than capable of caring for pets with detailed care instructions. When entrusted with your pet, you can expect frequent and detailed photo and text updates to keep you informed on how your fur baby is doing. I guarantee to keep your pet entertained and engaged in your absence, ensuring a worry-free experience for you. Your pet will receive the same level of care and attention as if they were my own! I work part-time in the entertainment industry, so I have a very flexible schedule. I update my Rover calendar weekly. For the time being, I can only accept bookings accessible by NYC public transportation, including Metro-North and NJ Transit. I have been vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19. I am happy to wear a mask when interacting with humans in your home if requested - I may also mask for my safety. For dogs' safety, I do not take dogs to dog parks, take them off-leash, or simultaneously walk dogs from different households unless I am extremely familiar with the dogs' behavior and the activity is approved by the owners.
About: I worked at Petsmart for about 4 years and I’ve had experience with every pet you can imagine from puppies to fish to cats. You name it I’ve taken care of I work a part time job so I’m available everyday of the week including weekends! Whenever you need me give me a call I’ll be there I follow my pet parents rules! Certain things your baby can’t eat? Fine with me. Your fur baby needs a bedtime story even better. Does your fur baby love walks? Let’s hit the park. I also offer house keeping as well
About: Some past experiences were at animal shelters like the Humane Society of Westchester and the Mount Vernon Animal Shelter. I love what dogs and humans can bring to one another. I consider myself energetic and can match the energy, as well as the tranquility of a pet. Mood reading is very important and that is part of the joy of understanding each other with our languages. A routine and change of pace can work because it is never a dull moment. Pets are amazing and understanding mood helps the communication and language. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for dogs to run around in. The space is safe and spacious, able to play games and stretch.

“We had great communication with Shirley throughout the entire process. We did a meet and greet before the stay, and she asked thoughtful questions beforehand to really get to know our dog. During the stay, she shared lots of photos and videos, which we truly appreciated. She was also very flexible and accommodating when we had to change our plans due to the snowstorm. Highly recommend!”

Absolutely recommending her services.”
“Veronica was absolutely incredible! I left my dog at her house for boarding for four days, and she made me feel so comfortable. She clearly loved my dog so much, sent me so many pictures, kept me updated, and made sure I was stress free while I was away and kept my girl so so happy. I Highly recommend!!! Best pet sitter I have ever had by far”

“Sayarlin was soo accommodating while watching my dog Dream! Even when I had to extend the pick up dates she was still willing to help out as best as she could. She even took Dream to the park to play which i'm sure she enjoyed. I will definitely use her to watch Dream in the future.”
“I was very concerned at first as this would be the first time I left Violet and Neptune with persons they did not know. Once I met Grace and they way my pups reacted to her I knew they would do great. Grace and Luis were always keeping me up to date on my pups antics and sent pictures of them relaxing and playing I knew I picked the right people. Will highly recommend them and will absolutely be using them in the future as my pups needs arise.”
“Naomi and Johnny took great care of our two dogs, Dexter and Bella. They were also very responsive when we were booking and during the period of time they were carrying for our dogs. Thank you!”
“Dan was absolutely amazing with our dog Karley. From the moment we left, she kept us consistently updated with messages, photos, and check-ins, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. It’s not easy trusting someone with your pet, but Dan made it effortless. Her communication was top-notch, and it was clear Karley was not only well cared for, but genuinely comfortable and happy. We had zero worries the entire time, and that says everything. I would highly recommend Dan to anyone looking for someone reliable, attentive, and truly caring. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“My first Rover experience and it was GREAT!!! Omar agreed to meet prior and from there it was a no brainer. Lizso took some time to warm up and settled right in. Daily pics and videos of playtime, naps and multiple walks confirmed I made the right choice. Thank you Omar!!!”

“Julia was terrific! She and Bailey hit it off right away. Got a bunch of pics with Bailey out for a walk, playing with toys and a restful night sleep. Will use Julia again!”
“Anton was very kind and accommodating of my anxious dog. It was the very first boarding experience for my dog, Reiki, and he was very nervous when we arrived at Anton's place. I was worried that he would stay restless, but I was totally wrong! Anton sent me photos and updates, which made me feel safe asking more of his service again. Reiki was able to calm down within hours under his care, and very much enjoyed spending time with him 😄.”
“Alice and Ethan were amazing with my dog Sully! They took so many pictures and I can see how much attention he was getting! He got to go all over with them and explore new neighborhoods which he loves to do. I will definitely be using them again in the future!”
