“Teddy seemed to really enjoy his stay with Alissa. He looked happy in the pictures that she sent us and he came back home not mad at us for leaving him. Thank you so much for taking such good care of teddy!”

“Just an incredible experience. Michelle was a pleasure to have dog sit Hero. She sent tons of pictures and videos and also gave Hero a bath! I would recommend her to anyone. 10/10.”


“My pup had a fantastic extended stay! Wenxu was so accommodating to her unique needs and sent plenty of photos and video updates. Would highly recommend them as professional reliable honest dog sitters. My pup seemed perfectly content and would be happy to return!”

“Jen did a great job with our beagle Daisy. She was inquisitive regarding Daisy’s needs, schedule, and likes/dislikes. She sent us pictures and updates throughout the time and even got Daisy to give a big smile on one of her pictures. We will definitely use her again.”
“We had such a wonderful experience! Dior felt right at home from the moment she arrived and was so well cared for during her stay. We loved getting updates and could tell she was receiving lots of attention, love, and even some extra treats. Especially because Dior was in heat we were so happy she was comfortable. The thoughtful gift keychain was such a sweet surprise and really showed how much they care about both pets and their owners. We came home to a happy pup and couldn't ask for more. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog!”


“Denise is amazing & super sweet! she took such good care of our sweet Melo. She sent us pictures often & took him places. We were so happy to see how well he was taken care of after our bad experience with a boarding facility. Melo loves her & we can’t wait to use her in the future!”

“My wife and I needed a last minute dog sitter, and we found dilania here on rover. Her response was quick. When we dropped our dogs off she gave updates and took great care of our pups.”

“Yessenia was absolutely lovely to work with. She answered any questions we had as first time Rover customers in order to put us at ease. We could see from the first interaction that she would be kind to our dog, as she immediately got down and gave her hand to the dog to sniff and then pet her. She has a daughter with a sweet and gentle personality, who kindly shared her own blanket with the dog to make the dog feel more comfortable. Yessenia‘s husband was friendly and pleasant as well. Yessenia sent us multiple pictures and updates over the weekend while she watched the dog. Though we brought some supplies, she was also prepared with her own if necessary. Furthermore, since Yesenia had already experienced life with a senior dog, she offered us some suggestions that might help with our pup. Our Rusty had never been cared for by a stranger up to this point. It was hard for us to leave her. That said, we would not only highly recommend Yessenia and her family to other dog owners, we will definitely reach out to Yessenia again if we need someone to board the dog. She even included a lovely note about the experience. Her thoughts were genuine, and it was nice for us to be reminded about the beauty of our dog whom we see every day.”

“Delmy was great! My dog loved spending time at her house and he got lots of belly rubs! She sent multiple pictures throughout the day and he seemed comfortable and happy. Would definitely recommend.”

About: I provide more than just pet care—I offer companionship, safety, and heartfelt attention to every animal I meet. Having grown up with dogs, I understand how each one has its own unique personality. Over the years, I’ve loved and cared for a playful pug, a loyal Labrador, and now share my life with the most amazing Golden Retriever. With this experience, your furry friend is in trusted, capable hands. Whether they need active playtime, cozy cuddles, or a calm presence, I always tailor my care to fit their individual needs. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I plan my days around the needs of the pets I care for. I make sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they deserve. I’m flexible with scheduling and committed to being reliable, so you can count on me to be there when your pet needs care the most. I am fully remote, so an always home with these guys. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play. If you're comfortable, my friendly dog would love to play with yours—but only with your okay. If not, no worries—he knows the routine and will happily stay separate.

“THE BEST!!! Heeyoung was such a delight to work with. She was sending daily pictures or videos of my big baby, and in every picture my dog looked like she was smiling. I was almost afraid she wouldn't want to come home! Such a lovely person, kind and always responded right away when I would text her. Will DEFINITELY book with her again; so glad we met.”

“Yaina was wonderful! We are so happy to have found her! She sent us videos and pictures of our dog during the stay. Yaina kept us updated and made me feel at ease that our dog was being well taken cared of.”

“We left our pooch with Alba for seven days! My daughter was so upset. Alba was fantastic. At the meet and greet, we could see that Alba is an experienced dog sitter. She sent us updates and pictures that put my daughter at ease. We enjoyed the whole vacation because we knew everything was fine back home. Alba also took our booking on short notice which helped greatly. I cant thank her enough!!! 100% recommended.”

“Michele welcomed our little baby at the last minute and showed her so much love. She constantly updated me with pics and little messages regarding her stay. Michele and her family are very loving.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Experience with Matt & Kristina! Matt & Kristina were absolutely amazing from start to finish! From our very first meet-and-greet, they took the time to get to know Rocky and make sure he would be a good fit for their family and their two beautiful dogs. Matt showed us their yard and explained where Rocky would be safe to run around and play. He gave us a full rundown of everything and patiently answered all of our questions, which immediately made us feel comfortable and confident leaving Rocky with them. We ended up booking a full week! Throughout Rocky’s stay, we received regular updates, pictures, videos, and text messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was so wonderful to see how happy and comfortable Rocky was. He got along great with their family dogs and even their super-cute daughter! You can truly tell that Matt & Kristina genuinely care about the dogs in their care and treat them like family. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Matt & Kristina and will definitely be booking with them again in the future, especially when we need to travel out of the country. Rocky had an amazing time, and we felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such great hands! 🐾❤️ The Arjoon Family 🫶🏻 Breed: Pomsky 😂 more the size of Husky”

“This was my first time using the Rover service, and I’m extremely pleased with the experience. Michelle and her family were absolutely amazing, very flexible and accommodating. She sent picture and text updates about my precious dog everyday, multiple days a day. Her and her family were very warm and inviting from the very beginning and Holly, our beagle, felt right at home. Thank you so very much for watching our dog last minute and treating her with such care. I will definitely be working with Michelle again!”
“Vanessa was AMAZING! I needed to find someone to watch Lady on fairly short notice and Vanessa couldn’t have been more accommodating. She provided pictures and videos throughout Lady’s stay and took great care of her giving me so much peace of mind. Lady was sad to leave Vanessa and can’t wait to go back for more fun!!”

“My dogs have stayed with Jenny a few times and they are always in good hands. This most recent stay we were late picking them up and she was very gracious and understanding about it.”

“Jennifer is excellent. It was her first time taking care of Leo and everything went great. She checked in daily with me. I will definitely book with her again in the future.”

“Wei came to my home to care for my 2 cats. She was attentive and sweet and my cats felt comfortable with her. She also made sure they had adequate water and food, and she diligently cleaned their litter boxes. I am thankful for her help!”


“Karen did a great job watching our two cats for 9 days. She gave timely, clear updates and asked questions when needed, which was rare, because she spent a lot of time getting to know them at the initial meet and greet. We came home to two healthy, happy kitties, glad she was able to take care of them for our time away.”


“Lindsay did a great job caring for our 3 cats. She contacted us every day and sent us pictures. Even in the heavy rain she made it to our home. She also cleaned up when one of our cats got sick and she also cleaned up dry food that the cats knocked over. We highly recommend Lindsay for your cat sitting needs.”

“Stephanie is an absolute sweetheart! I could tell she treated Saint with so much care, as if he was her own pet. ( which I love ) I will definitely be using her again for her help in the future. Not only is Stephanie nice and friendly, but she followed all the directions I left for her. Thanks 🙏”


“Victoria took care of my fur baby for 10days while I was away. She was responsive, reliable, and very flexible as my travel plans kept changing. Even during a snowstorm, she showed up as scheduled. I really appreciate her clear communication and reliability. Thank you for making my trip stress-free!”


“Janhvi was excellent. The experience felt luxurious with the way she operated. Never missed a visit, pics, vids and full report every time. Would definitely use her services again in the future.”


“Sam is incredibly empathetic person! She took such a great care of our girl and we would highly recommend her to anyone. Looking forward to invite her again when we will be traveling.”

“Kristen was wonderful with our two cats while we were away. She made sure to ask how much we wanted to be updated and tailored it accordingly. One of our cats is 20 and has a kidney-specific diet due to health issues and Kristen ensured she was well fed and taken care of. We could tell when we got home how much they were pampered while we were gone and I know they can’t wait until they get Kristen back again ?⬛ ?”

It was wonderful to hear about them every day and get pictures of them while we were away. We will absolutely ask her to look after our kitties again.”


About: I’ve had pets throughout my life, which has given me firsthand experience with the patience, attention, and responsibility that goes into caring for them. I understand that cats can have very different personalities and comfort levels, so I always let them warm up to me at their own pace. I’m attentive to their routines, including feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, and making sure they have plenty of affection or space depending on what they prefer. I know how important it is for cats to feel safe and comfortable in their environment, especially when their owner is away, and I’ll treat your cat with the same care and attention I would want for my own.

“Alissa is super nice and down to earth. We met with her for a meet and greet and my dog was comfortable with her and her home right away. She has two super sweet dogs of her own and her home is beautiful and cozy. She is quick to respond and has proven to be reliable and trustworthy. I would highly recommend her!”

“Jennifer was great! when I dropped off my pooch I was so nervous I couldn't get past the stop sign.... and I was having him sat so I could enjoy a spa day. at the ultimate spa palace spa castle in queens ny! this was my 1st time leaving my baby with a stranger. well Jennifer reassured me with both texts and photos thought the entire time I was away. my pup mink loves his time there with her pup and family. when we got home he knocked out for the entire night.

From the start, she was friendly, reliable, and communicative. She made sure Fluffy was happy, safe, and well cared for, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. I highly recommend Wenxu to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of Fluffy!”

Our dogs stayed overnight with her and I picked them up before the time that I requested and Hee Young was very understanding. I will be a return customer”

“My dog MoMo is afraid of other dogs, but loves people very much. I truly appreciated the lady Kajal’s professional knowledge in taking care of MoMo’s individual personality by separating MoMo and her own lovely puppy Sunny, after her effort to try to make two dogs get along with each other. During MoMo’s playdate, Kajal kept me informed by sending several pictures and videos, and many texts to update MoMo’s current situation. Kajal is very sweet, responsive, reliable and trustworthy. Her whole family members love dogs very much which make me feel even more comfortable. Thanks Rover to let me know such a professional lady who can take care of my dog when I am away, and make my dog feel like home away home.”

About: I have experience caring for pets through both professional work and personal ownership. I currently provide dog walking and pet care through Wag!, where I’ve worked with dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, including senior dogs and more active breeds. I’ve also had the opportunity to build trust with repeat clients by providing dependable, compassionate care. As a proud cat mom to two cats, I understand the importance of patience, routine, and recognizing each pet’s unique personality. In addition, I’ve volunteered with a cat rescue, where I cared for cats with a wide range of temperaments, cleaned enclosures, socialized cats, and administered oral and topical medications when needed. I also spent a year working at a family-owned pet store that specialized in dogs, cats, and exotic animals, giving me hands-on experience with daily animal care and pet wellness. My goal is to provide every pet with a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while giving pet parents peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. Since I also drive, I’m able to reliably travel to visits, walks, and drop-ins. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to each week. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I believe pets feel happiest in their own home, so I take the time to learn their schedule, feeding routine, exercise needs, and any special instructions before each visit. I always ensure doors, gates, and harnesses are secure, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and playtime, and treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Ella is such an amazing caregiver! She was so unbelievably responsible and thoughtful. She took notes on our pitbul and asked what his likes and dislikes were. She would leave us little check-in notes when she would visit and walk our pup. She will be my go to pup sitter forever! We felt so comfortable and most importantly our pup felt safe and happy with her.”

About: I love dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages, but I have the most experience with caring for adolescent to senior dogs. I have experience administering medication if necessary, and adhering to special diets per veterinary instruction. Pet care is my main job! I am fully dedicated to taking care your furry friend(s) and I'm fully available to meet you beforehand to ensure we're a good team! I am more than happy to spend time with your pet, whether that means playing, feeding, or just hanging out. Your fur baby will be safe and in great hands!

About: I've been surrounded by dogs/cats my whole life and currently have 2 dogs & 1 cat of my own. I volunteer for a dog rescue group and have always wanted to worked in an animal field. I am educated on the characteristics of each breed so I know what type of care they need. I am also aware of their behavioral tendencies so I strive to make each four legged pal feel comfortable with me as well. Making each animal feel like they are my own is important to me so they receive the love and care that they need. I am a certified dog trainer as well. I've dog sat at home before. I've also had all types of experiences with dogs so I know how to control a bad situation. I have open availability and very flexible. I am mobile as well. I'm looking foward to making more furry friends. I am currently not working, and I have open availability to take care of your furry friends no matter how long you need! Your pet will fit perfectly into my daily routine. Your pets safety and comfortably is my number 1 priority. If you have any special request or accommodations, that is no problem.

I know most of the dogs in my neighborhood from walking my son Mickey. Mickey is super friendly, and cuddly Puggle. He is 10 years old and unfortunately he has limited eye site. He shares, and loves doggies to visit. The reason I do this: I would love 2 dogs, but my husband says there's not enough room on our bed. So having sleep overs fills my need for a 2nd dog.

Bring what your dog needs to feel at home, leash, food, their bed/blanket (we have extra beds and dog dishes), favorite toy, or snacks. My house is small but our hearts are big❤️, we have room to make all our pets feel like they are home! I don't like to take more then 3 dogs at a time for sleep overs. That's just enough for me and my husband to stay cozy with your pet and mine. One at a time is preferred. I also administer medication both oral and injected for those needing.

“I am so lucky to have found Sam M to walk Rosie. She's exactly what Rose needs - strong, firm, loving, all together. As I am too lenient to be a good trainer, Sam has been working with Rose every walk (she walks her 4 times a week in the evening), to help her become her best self. Sam comes on time - she's very responsible, but most important is that Rose ADORES her. So do I.”

About: I’ve always had a dog since I was little and I love dogs. Neighbors and family rely on me at times to watch and walk their dogs. I am a teacher and I have the summers off. I used to have dogs but now it’s just me and my almost 4 year old son. My son goes to daycare and I would love nothing more than to care for your pet. I have a fenced in yard and I love to go for walks. I have the whole day to entertain and keep your pet happy.
About: I am based in Oyster Bay and am a retired teacher with six years of experience running my dog care business. I have had animals my entire life, ranging from a 3-pound teacup Chihuahua to a Great Dane, as well as cats, horses, and goats. This past summer, I rescued my sweet girl, Aruba...yes, we found her in Aruba :) She is wonderful with all of the dogs who stay with us. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and carefully maintain each pet’s established routine, including precise feeding schedules, medication administration, and appropriate daily exercise. When your dog stays with me, they immediately become part of our family. They are welcome throughout the home and may even sleep with us. During warmer months, I take the dogs to the beach for long, beautiful walks. I am available seven days a week and am always home. My two adult daughters, ages 24 and 22, also assist, ensuring your dog is never left alone. Services offered include daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and overnight care in your home when available. After all, doesn’t your dog deserve a vacation too? I am home majority of time except for the occasional errands etc. If I am not home I have 2 older daughters who help me keep the dogs company. My home is 100% smoke free! I have a fully fenced yard for the dogs to stay in so they can get some fresh air & play with their friends.
About: I currently work at an emergency veterinary hospital as a doctor assistant so I can be well trusted with your pets. I’m reliable and pay close attention to details. I’ve grown up with animals my entire life so caring for them has become second nature to me! I currently work full time, however I only work Sunday until 4pm and then Monday, Tuesday, and Friday. I am more than happy to take care of your pets before and after work, as well as on my days off I would care for your pets as if they are my own. I’ve grown up with animals my entire life so I’ve become accustomed to taking care of them. My pet care just becomes part of my routine. Your animals are cared for as if they’re my own so I will treat them the way I’d want someone to treat my pets I care for pets exactly how an owner asks of me. If you want me to sleep in the bed with your dog/cat I will do that. I like full transparency and there is no such thing as a crazy request!

“THE BEST!!! Heeyoung was such a delight to work with. She was sending daily pictures or videos of my big baby, and in every picture my dog looked like she was smiling. I was almost afraid she wouldn't want to come home! Such a lovely person, kind and always responded right away when I would text her. Will DEFINITELY book with her again; so glad we met.”

“Yaina was wonderful! We are so happy to have found her! She sent us videos and pictures of our dog during the stay. Yaina kept us updated and made me feel at ease that our dog was being well taken cared of.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Experience with Matt & Kristina! Matt & Kristina were absolutely amazing from start to finish! From our very first meet-and-greet, they took the time to get to know Rocky and make sure he would be a good fit for their family and their two beautiful dogs. Matt showed us their yard and explained where Rocky would be safe to run around and play. He gave us a full rundown of everything and patiently answered all of our questions, which immediately made us feel comfortable and confident leaving Rocky with them. We ended up booking a full week! Throughout Rocky’s stay, we received regular updates, pictures, videos, and text messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was so wonderful to see how happy and comfortable Rocky was. He got along great with their family dogs and even their super-cute daughter! You can truly tell that Matt & Kristina genuinely care about the dogs in their care and treat them like family. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Matt & Kristina and will definitely be booking with them again in the future, especially when we need to travel out of the country. Rocky had an amazing time, and we felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such great hands! 🐾❤️ The Arjoon Family 🫶🏻 Breed: Pomsky 😂 more the size of Husky”

“Vanessa was AMAZING! I needed to find someone to watch Lady on fairly short notice and Vanessa couldn’t have been more accommodating. She provided pictures and videos throughout Lady’s stay and took great care of her giving me so much peace of mind. Lady was sad to leave Vanessa and can’t wait to go back for more fun!!”

“Our dog Boomer had a wonderful stay with Krissy and her dogs. Krissy is responsive with text messages and we get constant updates and pictures throughout our trip. I look forward to them everyday. He came home happy and himself. We would 100% book with Krissy again next time. Thank you for looking after our boy and treating him like one of your own. He was so spoiled and had his own mini vacation with a nice backyard which we don’t get in the city.”


“My dog literally came back home so tired from having fun. He received excellent treatment he had another dog to play with (which was great to wear him out) I was sent multiple pics throughout the day letting me know that Ac was in excellent care. I will use them again and again 🙏🏽”

“Tanu and her family provided a safe environment for our two dogs. Our senior dog has medical problems, and Tanu communicated promptly when any issues arose. She exercised them regularly and sent us daily updates and photos.”

“I can’t say enough about Vanessa and her family! We left our labradoodle with her for the weekend and received tons of videos, pictures and text messages about how Brandy was doing. The care she received from everyone in the family was top notch. I could see every day that she was playing, eating well and getting lots of love and attention! I am truly grateful.”

“Ladybug had a great time with Judy. She sent updates with pictures and administered her flea/tick medication. Ladybug is dog reactive and Judy handled this with ease. She was excellent at keeping in communication with us while we were on our trip. Thank you Judy for taking such great care of Ladybug!”

“If you want your pup to feel like they're at a home away from home - book with Tina. She and her family (two young children who will entertain your dog endlessly) will provide a loving environment with lots of play and attention. I boarded my 7 year old pit mix for several days and he felt right at home immediately. Tina was great sharing photos and videos of Lincoln playing in the fenced in back and taking lots of walks (I think he thought twice about coming back home :)). So happy I found her.”

“Sharon was awesome. She made it very comfortable to leave or Nate with her. She sent pictures to show he was having a good time. Definitely will use her services again and will definitely recommend to friends looking to leave their for legged family with someone who really cares.”

“Diana and her family were amazing with our Sophie. She kept us informed on a regular basis as to how our pup was doing in addition to providing us with several awesome photos. We would highly recommend her to friends and family and look forward to using her services in the future.”


“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!”

“It was our first time ever leaving our dog with a sitter. We were very nervous about it, but Sonia and her family made sure to send us videos and photos of her every day and constantly kept us updated on the well being of our Ginger! They welcomed her with open arms and made her feel right at home immediately . Thank you so much for taking such great care of our baby!”

“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!”

“Nicholas did a fantastic job watching Duke during boarding. He kept us well in the loop with tons of photos. Duke seemed like he was having such a great time, I wondered if he even wanted to come home! We will certainly be using Nicholas again in the future!”
