“Carlos' family was fantastic! I received regular updates and plenty of 'proof of life' photos, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. It’s clear my girls were in great hands. I will definitely be using their services again!”
“Yaina was INCREDIBLE!!! First time I used her for my 2 dogs and hopefully not the last! Her dog, Boston, is sweet as pie and she took such great care of my dogs while I was gone for 11 days. Many many pics were received. She really cares about dogs, her house is spotless and yard completely fenced in and very save. Loved having her care for my babies! Thank you Y and J!”
“Isabella was great. She regularly checked in and kept me posted with a lot of pics. She is kind and cheerful and would recommend her to anyone having to leave their fur babies.”
“Danielle is a true dog lover, and after all, isn't that who you'd want caring for your pup when you are out of town. My Marley had a great time at Danielle's house, playing with her pup and romping around in her secure backyard. I felt confident that Marley was not only safe but loved. Thank you Danielle.”
“Alissa was great with Chutney. We got regular updates with videos. We had some last minute changes with pick up, Alissa was very flexible and we didn’t have to worry. Would definitely recommend her.”
“Denise was very sweet to my dog and followed all of the feeding instructions carefully. Cooper made friends with her dogs, and she made sure Cooper was safe and well cared for at all times. 🐾”
“If you are looking for a person(s) to care for your dog look no further. Denis and Marina are your go to for animal care. Your dog will not want to go home with you!”
“Diana was amazing with my pup, Louis! He had an absolute blast — especially getting to run around outside and play with the other dogs and kids, which is such a treat for him since he doesn’t get that kind of freedom in Manhattan. I could tell he was well cared for and totally in his element. Communication was great, with tons of photos daily, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such a loving, fun environment. I’d strongly recommend Diana to anyone looking for a thoughtful and responsible sitter — we’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Sara was very good about replying to our texts prior to meeting her and also while our dogs were staying with her. We received daily updates and photos which was very comforting to us being away on a trip. The dogs certainly enjoyed their stay and the loving attention they got during their stay. They also had lots of exercise and playtime. Our dogs also got along well with Sara's dog, Phil. It's wonderful to have found a responsible and reliable dog sitter in Sara.”
“I have to thank Evan and Iris for taking such good care of my cat this weekend. I can't say enough about them. From the moment I dropped him off, they sent pictures and videos to ease my mind. This is the first time I have even left my 19 year old cat with anyone for boarding. I was reassured upon meeting them and within 15 minutes of leaving, I was able to see him exploring his surroudings calmly. I received many more pictures and videos which gave me piece of mind that my baby was safe and happy. I would wirthout a doubt recommend them to my friends with confidence. They are wonderful people and I will definatley book with them again.”
“This was my first time using Rover as a sitter and the choice was amazing thanks to Judy. She updated me often and sent pictures. My dog always looked happy and was enjoying herself. I feel safe leaving her with Judy as she is made our first experience a great one!”
“Delmy and her daughter were so kind and just wonderful with my elder pup, Jake. Their home was warm, welcoming and super tidy. They provided daily photos and updates which were much appreciated. I would absolutely recommend booking Delmy and look forward to using her again. :)”
“My dog, Blue, came back from his long weekend with Giovanna in a happy little mood. I can tell he really enjoyed his visit, and that means so much! Giovanna sent photos while we were away, which was reassuring. She certainly kept Blue busy with snowy walks. He's a dog who likes to be active. I could not be happier with this first booking.”
“Chris was great! Easy to book, communication was clear and he sent me plenty of pics during our pup’s weekend stay with him. Their dog Luna is a sweetheart. Our dog got plenty of walks and attention while she was there. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Thanks!”
“Heeyoung provided great care for our dog. Waffles seemed happy and comfortable with her. She was very responsive whenever we reached out and send updates with videos and pics. ? We were able to go on our trip with assurance that he was well taken care of. Thank you so much Heeyoung!”
About: I provide thoughtful, full-time, in-home care where your dog is treated like part of the family, not just supervised. I’m home full-time, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, flexible routines, and individualized care based on your dog’s personality and needs. I work especially well with dogs who benefit from a thoughtful approach— whether that’s high-energy pups who need engagement, shy dogs who need time to warm up, or seniors who need a slower, more gentle pace. My focus is always on helping each dog feel safe, settled, and understood while they’re away from home. My space is designed with safety and comfort in mind. I have a large fully fenced yard and take introductions slowly and intentionally with my dog, Winny, who is a playful, happy companion and often helps visiting dogs feel more relaxed and at ease. I create an environment where each dog can settle in at their own pace. I keep my bookings limited so each dog receives the attention and care they deserve— this is not a high-volume setup. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. I also offer flexible scheduling and optional pickup/drop-off within a reasonable distance to make travel days as smooth and stress-free as possible. I’m home all day and can be very flexible with schedules, feeding times, walks, and routines. This allows me to give each pet plenty of attention, enrichment, and reassurance throughout the day so they always feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away Your peace of mind and your pet’s safety and emotional wellbeing always come first. For this reason I send daily updates with photos/video so you can be at ease knowing your baby is being well taken care of. When caring for pets in my space, I have a fully fenced yard and a built in playmate. I do very slow, supervised introductions with my own dog, Winny, who is a very playful, happy girl. If either dog prefers space, I can easily accommodate comfortably separating the pups as needed both indoor and outdoors.
“Kristen and her partner were amazing! We received many photos of Mako on walks and hanging out with them at home. Knowing Mako was well taken care of gave us piece-of-mind to enjoy the weekend of wedding activities. Thanks Kristen!”

About: Hi! My name is Nicole and I have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I was raised in a home full of dogs. Since I was a young girl, my mother has been a professional dog breeder of Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, so I grew up helping care for five or more pups at a time. This lifelong exposure has given me a deep understanding of dog behavior, care, and training from a very young age. In addition to my personal experience, I’ve worked at a doggy daycare where I gained even more expertise in training, administering medications, grooming, and providing attentive, loving care. Whether it’s a high energy puppy or a senior dog needing special attention, I’m confident and capable in providing tailored care. I’m currently based in Huntington NY where I offer a safe and welcoming home environment for dog boarding. I live in a pet friendly space with my calm and friendly Chihuahua named Coco who loves having visitors. Your dog will receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection in a peaceful supervised setting. I now have open availability throughout the week and weekends, making it easy to accommodate your pup’s needs whether for daytime care, overnight stays, or extended visits. I wholeheartedly have lots of fun while looking after dogs of all kinds, and it is my priority to keep your fur baby safe, happy and healthy! I am looking forward to connecting with you! 🦴🐶🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. My schedule varies from week to week depending on bookings and client needs, but I currently have an open and flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day. Whether it's early morning walks, midday playtime, or evening feedings and cuddles, I build my day around making sure each dog gets the attention, structure, and affection they need. Whether caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I always aim to create a calm, loving, and safe environment tailored to each dog’s personality and routine. Dogs staying with me enjoy a cozy, pet-friendly space with plenty of room to relax and play. I live with my sweet, well-behaved Chihuahua named Coco who loves canine visitors and gets along with all breeds. I provide regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection throughout the day. I follow the pet parent’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, or special care routines to ensure consistency and comfort. When caring for dogs in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their regular routines and environment. I make sure feedings, walks, and any special care are handled just as requested. I treat every client’s home with respect and make sure their pets are safe, content, and well cared for while they’re away. Whether at my place or yours, I always send updates with photos and videos so you can feel confident and connected while your pet is in my care.

“Giovanna is the best! Literally everything I was searching for in a dog sitter for my high energy pup who’s used to me being home all day :) super thorough Rover cards and her photos are great. She made my pups first day away from home super positive with playtime, hiking, and a pup cup! Thank you Giovanna!!”
“My two German Shepherds, Snow and Magnum returned today from a two day stay with Loraine B. and her lovely family. My dogs do not always easily adjust to new surroundings. This time that was not the case. Both Snow and Magnum settled right in to Loraine's home and they were very comfortable with her attentive care. Don't think twice if you are looking for a loving place for your pets... they are in good hands with Loraine and her family. Just make sure to leave room for Snow and Magnum as they will be back with Loraine when next we need to be away. Thank you very much for the wonderful care!!”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover, doctoral candidate, and business owner who works from home—so your pup will have my full attention in a peaceful, fun, and love-filled environment. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for years and have been the trusted sitter for friends and family throughout my life. I enjoy puppy care, high energy dogs, and dogs who benefit from gentle patience and enrichment. Whether your pup needs an active playmate, a calm companion, or a structured routine while you’re away, I’m here to help. I currently share my home with Laney, my yellow lab and best friend. Together, we’ve completed multiple levels of canine education, from basic obedience to therapy and service animal training. I’ve spent years working with her through structured behavior work and commands, which makes me especially comfortable providing care for dogs needing a little extra attention. Laney is well socialized and she's a registered service animal. She has a lot of pup friends and we're actively involved in the neighborhood dog group - hosting playdates and visits and enjoying group walks and meet-ups at the nearby parks. Here’s what your dog will enjoy during their stay: A large fenced yard (~4,000 sq ft) with a well-kept lawn A deck for sunbathing and relaxing (cooling bed optional) A dog pool for supervised splash sessions and cooldowns Access to quiet walking trails in a friendly, pet-loving neighborhood Consistent care from a work-from-home pup-sitter (they won't be left alone for long) I believe every dog deserves loving care, mental stimulation, and lots of joy while their humans are away. If you’re looking for someone who truly understands dogs and offers safe, enriching, high-quality care, I’d love to meet you and your pup! I work from home, running a business and completing my dissertation research. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate different needs. Laney has never demanded a set routine, but I'm generally up early for workouts and coffee breaks on the back deck. However, if your pup likes to sleep in, that's not a problem (Laney has been known to stay in bed late from time to time). I'm happy to discuss options for you and your pet(s). Your dog’s safety and comfort come first. I work from home, so your pup will be supervised, loved, and never alone for long. My home offers a fully fenced ~4,000 sq ft yard, dog pool, and quiet walking paths and parks nearby. Indoors, it’s calm, clean, and cozy—perfect for both high-energy dogs and mellow cuddlers. I follow your routine exactly and I'm happy to provide photo/video updates, so you always know your pet is safe and happy. As a dog lover, I consider pets family members, and I know how important it is to be able to trust in the person caring for your loved one(s).

She has a lot of pup friends and we're actively involved in the neighborhood dog group - hosting playdates and visits and enjoying group walks and meet-ups at the nearby parks. Here’s what your dog will enjoy during their stay: A large fenced yard (~4,000 sq ft) with a well-kept lawn A deck for sunbathing and relaxing (cooling bed optional) A dog pool for supervised splash sessions and cooldowns Access to quiet walking trails in a friendly, pet-loving neighborhood Consistent care from a work-from-home pup-sitter (they won't be left alone for long) I believe every dog deserves loving care, mental stimulation, and lots of joy while their humans are away. If you’re looking for someone who truly understands dogs and offers safe, enriching, high-quality care, I’d love to meet you and your pup! I work from home, running a business and completing my dissertation research. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate different needs. Laney has never demanded a set routine, but I'm generally up early for workouts and coffee breaks on the back deck. However, if your pup likes to sleep in, that's not a problem (Laney has been known to stay in bed late from time to time). I'm happy to discuss options for you and your pet(s). Your dog’s safety and comfort come first. I work from home, so your pup will be supervised, loved, and never alone for long. My home offers a fully fenced ~4,000 sq ft yard, dog pool, and quiet walking paths and parks nearby. Indoors, it’s calm, clean, and cozy—perfect for both high-energy dogs and mellow cuddlers. I follow your routine exactly and I'm happy to provide photo/video updates, so you always know your pet is safe and happy. As a dog lover, I consider pets family members, and I know how important it is to be able to trust in the person caring for your loved one(s).
“Ryan is great! He was always quick to respond to my messages starting from my first request and very easy to communicate with. He was reliable and on time for all of Cosmo’s walks. I came home to a happy dog every day, and it seemed like Ryan genuinely enjoyed taking care of my pup which made me super happy. I will definitely book with him again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m an experienced and safety-focused pet sitter based in Brooklyn, with years of hands-on care for dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and needs. I’ve worked long-term with local families, volunteered with NYC Sean Casey Animal Rescue, and currently work part-time with a Westchester-based pet care company. I’m confident handling everything from high-energy pups to more sensitive or reactive dogs, and I always prioritize calm, structured, and attentive care. What You Can Expect From Me: * Reliable, communicative care and insight (updates + photos) * Safety-first handling, especially in busy NYC environments * Experience with different temperaments and behavioral needs * Respect for your dog’s routine, boundaries, and training Boarding & Home Setup My apartment in Brooklyn and family home in Westchster is pet-friendly and set up with safety in mind: * No toxic plants within reach * Pets allowed on furniture unless you prefer otherwise * Supervised outdoor time with long-lead setups * Quiet, controlled environment away from heavy street traffic While I don’t have a fenced yard, I make up for it with structured walks, enrichment, and safe outdoor exposure. My apartment has a large gated patio, and my family home has two large grassy areas between a patio with a long lead for supervised outdoors time. I currently work freelance in roles that allow me to be home and present throughout the day. I also work part-time with a pet care company based in Westchester on a flexible schedule which has strengthened my hands-on experience with a wide range of dogs and routines. I’m based in Brooklyn and have access to both my apartment and my family home in Westchster for boarding, depending on what best suits your pet’s needs. My schedule allows me to provide consistent care, regular walks, and attention throughout the day rather than long periods of absence. I’m also open to traveling across the Tri-state area for house sitting and extended stays. I’ve been a trusted pet care companion for years, working with local families for both long-term and short stays (up to three weeks), as well as drop-in visits. For boarding, my home is fully pet-friendly, with no restrictions on furniture (unless you prefer otherwise) and no toxic plants within reach. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I provide safe, supervised outdoor time using a long lead in nearby grassy areas, along with access to a private patio. We’re also set back from the main road, which creates a calmer environment. For house sitting, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while respecting your home. I’m clean, responsible, and low-impact, and I treat every space with care. I follow feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions closely so your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. Safety is always my top priority. I’m attentive, cautious, and respectful when interacting with all animals and other dogs we may encounter. I always follow each owner’s guidance when it comes to socialization, ensuring your pet stays within their comfort zone.

“Yaina was INCREDIBLE!!! First time I used her for my 2 dogs and hopefully not the last! Her dog, Boston, is sweet as pie and she took such great care of my dogs while I was gone for 11 days. Many many pics were received. She really cares about dogs, her house is spotless and yard completely fenced in and very save. Loved having her care for my babies! Thank you Y and J!”
“Danielle is a true dog lover, and after all, isn't that who you'd want caring for your pup when you are out of town. My Marley had a great time at Danielle's house, playing with her pup and romping around in her secure backyard. I felt confident that Marley was not only safe but loved. Thank you Danielle.”
“If you are looking for a person(s) to care for your dog look no further. Denis and Marina are your go to for animal care. Your dog will not want to go home with you!”
“Diana was amazing with my pup, Louis! He had an absolute blast — especially getting to run around outside and play with the other dogs and kids, which is such a treat for him since he doesn’t get that kind of freedom in Manhattan. I could tell he was well cared for and totally in his element. Communication was great, with tons of photos daily, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such a loving, fun environment. I’d strongly recommend Diana to anyone looking for a thoughtful and responsible sitter — we’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Yvonne was great with our dog Chopper. We couldn't take him with us for the holidays and after a desperate search for the right match, we chose to board him with Yvonne. We were quite anxious to leave him behind for a week but from the start Yvonne was very accommodating, reassuring and great at communicating before and during boarding plus she patiently guided us through our first experience with Rover. Yvonne's house is very clean, spacious and has an awesome enclosed yard and safe neighborhood for walks. Her lovely dog Ziggy kept Chopper company and overall the process felt like leaving our dog with a good friend. I can highly recommend trusting Yvonne with your dog.”
“This was my first time using Rover as a sitter and the choice was amazing thanks to Judy. She updated me often and sent pictures. My dog always looked happy and was enjoying herself. I feel safe leaving her with Judy as she is made our first experience a great one!”

“My dog Cooper is super high energy and Liz is absolutely amazing with him! She took care of him like he was her own dog. She sent pictures and updates, and made our trip totally worry-free, which is tough sometimes with a fur baby! She's accommodating, loving, and truly loves animals. We will always use Liz to watch Cooper, and he now gets excited when we turn onto her block to drop him off!”
“Khrys is an amazing and friendly person. It is very clear when you meet her that she loves dogs a lot! Khrys watched Mollie, my mild mannered Goldendoodle for 5 days when my family went away on a vacation abroad. It was our first time away from our little dog! Khrys took great care of Mollie and sent us daily pictures, videos, and updates. I would use Khrys again in a heartbeat! Khrys, thank you for taking such good care of Mollie!”
“Iris w/her husband took care of my two pups Mia & Milo the last 5 days. They took such great care of them. Milo still a puppy at 13 months & Mia a 10.5. They handled them both with such care. With special instructions for Mia’s medicine to my hyper playful puppy seeking attention often. Iris sent pictures & videos showing me how happy & content they were! They’ll be back with Iris in just a few short days again! I’m so happy that I feel 💯 at ease knowing they’re in great hands!! Highly recommend Iris taking care of your fur babies too.”
“Chris was great! Easy to book, communication was clear and he sent me plenty of pics during our pup’s weekend stay with him. Their dog Luna is a sweetheart. Our dog got plenty of walks and attention while she was there. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Thanks!”

About: I provide thoughtful, full-time, in-home care where your dog is treated like part of the family, not just supervised. I’m home full-time, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, flexible routines, and individualized care based on your dog’s personality and needs. I work especially well with dogs who benefit from a thoughtful approach— whether that’s high-energy pups who need engagement, shy dogs who need time to warm up, or seniors who need a slower, more gentle pace. My focus is always on helping each dog feel safe, settled, and understood while they’re away from home. My space is designed with safety and comfort in mind. I have a large fully fenced yard and take introductions slowly and intentionally with my dog, Winny, who is a playful, happy companion and often helps visiting dogs feel more relaxed and at ease. I create an environment where each dog can settle in at their own pace. I keep my bookings limited so each dog receives the attention and care they deserve— this is not a high-volume setup. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. I also offer flexible scheduling and optional pickup/drop-off within a reasonable distance to make travel days as smooth and stress-free as possible. I’m home all day and can be very flexible with schedules, feeding times, walks, and routines. This allows me to give each pet plenty of attention, enrichment, and reassurance throughout the day so they always feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away Your peace of mind and your pet’s safety and emotional wellbeing always come first. For this reason I send daily updates with photos/video so you can be at ease knowing your baby is being well taken care of. When caring for pets in my space, I have a fully fenced yard and a built in playmate. I do very slow, supervised introductions with my own dog, Winny, who is a very playful, happy girl. If either dog prefers space, I can easily accommodate comfortably separating the pups as needed both indoor and outdoors.
About: I am an experienced animal owner! I’ve chicken sat, lizard wrangled and cat entertained. I went through k-9 training with my own dogs. However I am also well versed in the practices of the Monks of New Skete. I’ve had six of my own large dogs, six lizards and a plethora of other small animals. I look forward to time with your pet! I’m currently an art teacher/artist/mom. I follow school schedules, and have no plans to go on vacation. So generally, weekends, vacations and afternoons are the best. I will keep your pets safe and happy! I’ll listen to your thoughts and feelings about your home. I want you and your loved ones to feel comfortable!
“Gabrielle is the best! Our dog Bowie stayed with her for a weekend and she could not have been better. Beautiful home, super communicative. Bowie loved her and his time with her! Thank you!!!”
