“Kecia is an incredible dog-sitter! She is highly dependable and friendly. I appreciate how she makes sure to keep me updated on how my dog is doing Highly 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.”
“Deanna is amazing. She stayed in contact with us and sent pictures with daily reports. Ferris seemed VERY relaxed during his stay with her. We will be requesting more stays at Deanna’s in the future!”
“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!”
“John and Madeleine were extraordinary caretakers for our dog June while we were away for two weeks. They consistently sent detailed updates and clearly made every effort to make sure that our dog was comfortable, walked regularly, and loved. They even worked on keeping up with June’s training for leash pulling and took her to the vet for an appointment to check on something that ended up being a non-issue. We would gladly board with them again!”
“Kristen was a fabulous sitter! Communication was impeccable, and it was so obvious that my dog felt loved. I appreciated all of the photos too. Would definitely use again and recommend!”
“Emerald was amazing! So friendly and easy to communicate with. She sent lots of photos and updates which was really appreciated. Would absolutely recommend Emerald and would book with her again in the future”

“Patrice and her family are so good to my nervous little boy! He is anxious to be away from me but loves Patrice so much that he greets her with the happiest of tails.”
“Farrah had another fantastic stay at Ian and Clementina’s! They shared numerous updates, photos, and videos during her multi day stay at their apartment, and came back super happy!!”
“Alfie has the absolute best time at Hannah’s! I know anytime he’s there that he’s safe, well taken care of, cozy & comfortable. Hannah is super responsive and truly sends the best picture updates! This is my 2nd time booking with Hannah and will absolutely book again :)”
“Christine and Addison are truly special cat sitters. We recently went to Europe and had to leave our nervous 3 year old cat for almost 2 weeks. He had never been watched outside of our home, and we knew he would be anxious. For the first couple days he was very nervous and scared being in a new place, but Christine and Addison were extremely sensitive and patient with him. They kept him in a separate space where he could start to relax and then slowly introduced him to the rest of the home and the other cats as he became more and more comfortable. We received constant updates about how he was doing, along with photos and videos. After a few days he was having so much fun and had made 3 new kitty friends by the time we had to pick him up. I almost felt bad taking him away as he'd become so content being there! We knew he was in competent and caring hands while we were away which gave us great peace of mind. If you need to board your cat Christine and Addison should be your top choice!”
“Willow had a great stay with Minako. She sent pictures of her playing with other dogs in the dog park. Willow seemed healthy and happy when she came home. Drop off and pick up we're easy.”
“Hands down the best sitter we’ve had in New York so far. Renzo was very attentive to the instructions we gave for Louna. He and his wife gave her so much love and attention, and sent us so many beautiful pictures and videos daily, that not at once were we worried for our baby. They made us feel more than comfortable to have her with them and there is no doubt we have found Loulou’s new sitter. Thank you Renzo!!!”

“We couldn't be happier with Monika. She is incredibly conscientious, reliable, and thoughtful. She followed our somewhat complicated feeding instructions perfectly and so we came home to healthy cats. She was even able to snap a few pics of our terribly shy cats who always hides from sitters. We would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and compassionate pet sitter. She is truly exceptional.”

“Miranda is that absolute BEST. She’s cat-terrific! We went away for two weeks and felt so safe with her taking care of our girl.

I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone and give her 5 stars. Thank you again dear Miranda!”

About: I've had two cats, currently one, both since they were kittens. I have many years' experience taking care of others' cats as well. I pay close attention to their moods and personalities to make sure I am respecting their space and comfort, and love to play with them when they in their mood.

I appreciate her so much and highly recommend her services!”

“If you’re looking for an understanding and patient caretaker for your dog, look no further than Britt! She kindly took on the job of watching my newly adopted dog, Pepper, at the very last minute. Throughout the day, she sent thoughtful updates and even shared Amazon links for helpful dog products and treats. Britt was incredibly attentive to Pepper’s adjustment to a new environment and showed so much patience. Bonus points for her sweet dog, Furby, who became Pepper’s new friend during her stay. Rest assured, Britt is more than capable of taking great care of your fur baby!”

It was clear that he genuinely enjoys being around dogs and creates a calm, happy, and positive environment where they feel safe and cared for. His communication was excellent, and knowing our furry family member was in such kind and capable hands gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, compassionate, accommodating, and radiates nothing but good vibes, Danny is an absolute gem. We wouldn’t hesitate to trust him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional care for their beloved pet. Thank you, Danny, for going above and beyond!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 9 and although I don’t currently have a dog my roommate does so I have gotten continuous experience caring for him. My old dog was very anxious so I have experience caring for easily stressed dogs. I am currently working full time in person so will unfortunately only be available for continuous sitting on the weekends as I wouldn’t want to leave the dog alone for the whole day while I’m at work. I will follow whatever instructions you have for me exactly. Beyond that, I love playing with and interacting with dogs so I will be sure to keep them entertained for the duration of the stay!
“I cannot recommend AC more! She is extremely patient, especially with my nervous Skye. AC is communicative, amazing with dogs and just genuinely cares. AC goes above and beyond every time, whether it’s extra playtime, talking through suggestions how to make Skye more comfortable and bringing her skilled expertise to each interaction. It’s rare to find someone this dependable and kind. Thank you AC.”

We felt completely comfortable knowing our dog was in such good hands. I would highly recommend Brianna to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”

About: I have taken care of dogs, bunnies and cats. Not afraid of bigger dogs either. Walked several dogs on rover with awesome feedback. I’m quiet, respectful and friendly. Mostly available in the morning til 1pm on weekdays. Locations nearby F train subway stops are the best (Fort Hamilton parkway, 15 st, 7 st, 4ave & 9st, smith st, Carroll gardens, Bergen st). May also be available on other days and times depending on the schedule. I’m originally from Taiwan, studied in the Midwest (Michigan), worked in LA, and moved to Brooklyn with my partner. I’m a freelancer (UX design) and want to meet some furry friends and get to know the neighborhood. How I meet/ interact with furry friends: say hello, meet their eyes, palms up, show no signs of aggression, approach slowly and give a scratch if they look comfortable. I use a firm voice and gesture to calm them down when needed, too. Feel free to leave more instructions.
“Nik has been awesome at taking our pooch out on solo walks and also giving him his lunch afterwards. Couldn't recommend him more. He proactively communicates if there's changes in his schedule so we can plan accordingly.”
“Andrew was excellent with my dogs, who can be strong pullers when chasing squirrels. He handled them with patience and ease, and they came back happy after a long, well-paced walk. He was prompt, accommodating, and had a calm, steady presence that’s perfect for high-energy pups. I highly recommend him. Thank you, Andrew!”
