“Alissa and her fiancé are very sweet & kind. Such a welcoming & safe home. They were very attentive to my dog’s needs and even with other pups that were there, they made sure mine were taken care of properly. She has a great set up to separate any feedings, go out at any time if needed. They were happy overall! I will definitely have them watch them again in the future!”
“We had dropped our dog with Wenxu for 10 days during our travel. They looked after Neo really well and he came back home a happy dog. Wenxu made sure to keep us posted daily on Neo and sent us tons of photos. Would definitely recommend her for future.”
“Michelle is amazing! We are new to the area and had a negative experience with a different sitter previously. I was so nervous to try someone new. We found Michelle and I am SO grateful!! I honestly think our dog didn’t want to leave her house. She sent tons of photos and updates. Our Great Dane is sensitive to new situations and will refuse to eat. Michelle waited with her during each meal so she would eat. She truly went above and beyond and I can not recommend her enough.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Kamilah was very accommodating with the booking when I needed care kind of last minute. She also provided her husband's number as she was going to travel when I was going to pick up Sky. Thank you for taking care of Sky. Will definitely book again.”
“Sara and her family are wonderful! Our dog Ember has stayed with her many times over the last few years and always has a great time. Sara sends frequent updates and I always feel comfortable knowing that Ember is getting amazing care. Thank you Sara :)”
“Michael was absolutely fantastic! He took amazing care of our pups and kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear they were happy, well cared for, and in great hands. We are incredibly grateful for his dedication and would 100% trust him again for any future dog-sitting needs. Highly recommend!”
“Truly exceptional care. Denise was very friendly. I picked up the dogs they were energetic and happy. Some minor changes to our vacation schedule were accommodated without issue. Highly recommended !!!!”
“This is the second time our boys have stayed with Krissy. She runs a tight ship and all goes smoothly. Krissy goes out of her way to ensure that both the dogs, and their human connections are comfortable with the routine. We have very big boys, who are really just spoiled children. I have to admit that Krissy spoils them more than we do! We will be back!”
“Kayla and her family did a great job watching Luna, our 17 month old cavapoo. We were leaving Luna overnight and when I told her we were worried that Luna would run out the front door, she was very empathetic to our concerns and bought a gate to put us at ease. That sealed it for me. I would definitely use Kayla again. Thank you Kayla and family!”
“Delmy was wonderful! I had complete peace of mind while away. When I met her and her family I knew they would treat my Coco baby with care! She sent pictures daily of Coco enjoying the perfect enclosed backyard. I would definitely book Delmy again.”
“Vanessa and her family took amazing care of my dog Timber. Timber is a medium large rescue with a lot of energy and still learning social manners but they handled him super well. We brought him over for play dates with their dog and boarding. Their backyard was perfect to play with him in. They made Timber feel right at home when we left him there for a few nights. They were so knowledgeable and caring. We plan to bring him back for a longer stay.”
“We are so comfortable leaving our fur baby with Pam. She truly puts our mind at ease when we go away. Mugsy runs into Pam’s house when we arrive because he loves it so much! It’s his own little vacation!!”
“Rocio is the BEST!!! I went away for 2 weeks with my family and I was very nervous to leave Harley for that long with someone new, but as soon as I met Rocio, I knew Harley would be in great hands. She is sweet, patient, kind and clearly a dog lover. Her home is immaculate and pet-friendly and she has a nice fenced-in yard in the back for dogs to run around. Rocio texted me photos and videos every day that I was away and it was clear that Harley was happy and well cared for. We appreciated the daily communication because we missed Harley so much. Harley came home smelling clean, too, which was one less thing for us to have to worry about. I couldn’t have been happier that we found Rocio. She saved the day and allowed us to have a relaxing vacation knowing that Harley was safe, happy and loved.”
“I was terribly nervous as this was the first time I left my dog with anyone, but from start to finish Victoria and her family made me feel so comfortable. She took great care of our dog, kept us updated, and promptly responded to our questions. Our boy was sooo happy during. I am so grateful to Victoria and will trust her with our pup whenever we need a sitter.”
“Thank you so much for watching Nala! I know Nala enjoyed her time with you, and I felt very assured that she was in good hands. Would recommend Carina if you want your pet to be happy, safe, loved, and take cared for!!”
“Joanna did an excellent job taking care of my dog, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter. She was very communicative throughout the entire process, always keeping me updated and making me feel comfortable while I was away. Her availability and flexibility were also greatly appreciated and made scheduling very easy. On top of that, everything was kept clean and organized, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about providing a safe and comfortable environment. Thank you again, Joanna, for taking such great care of my little guy!”

“Khrys always takes great care of our feisty old lady, Betsy, and ensures she gets her medicine no matter what. With Khrys we know our cat is in the best hands. Thank you, Khrys!”
“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.”
“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 ?⬛ ?”

“Lisa did an amazing job looking after our precious kitty. My cat Sophie is a shy one but she made fast friends with Lisa right away. Lisa went above and beyond to make sure Sophie had everything she needs to be happy and comfortable. She sent me lots of updates and pictures which I appreciated very much. Communication was great. Already booked Lisa again!”
“Alizon is amazing!!! Highly recommend! We felt badly about leaving our skittish rescue kitty Mooch, but Alizon put our minds at ease. She is reliable, patient, and caring. She sent us regular updates and pictures/videos during her visits. Mooch would run out to greet her, chirping and looking for pets by her third visit. Very comfortable having her in my home. Would 100% book again. Thank you!!!”

“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!”

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.
“Sarah is an exceptional caregiver for our pup Leela! She was so thorough when we dropped Leela off and made sure every single area that Leela would be in was shown to us. There is tremendous care and intention that Sarah puts into her services and it shows. Leela was at ease being with her, and we will be dropping Leela off to hang out with Sarah, her children, and her pup every time we are in Long Island. Her daughter also drew leela two beautiful drawings and one can tell your pup will be treated like family. She is also very attentive and well versed in caring for a puppy’s needs.”

I also have plenty of availability during the weekends. I have a fenced yard, a couple of kids and a friendly beagle mix that would love to have a play date with your fur baby.
“It’s always a good sign when Charlie pulls on his lead to get into the sitter’s house. He seems to have enjoyed himself which makes us feel good leaving him with Kristie.”
“It usually takes our chihuahua, Louie, a while to warm up to new people. However, he warmed up to Patricia right away! He was so comfortable in her home that he sat on her lap during the first doggie day care session. Patricia is very attentive, extremely knowledgeable, and treated Louie like her own pet. We are very fortunate to have found Patricia!”

“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.”
“Rachel has been amazing with Leo! He truly enjoys her company and walking with her! She’s got it down to a science with him, he’s a Frenchie and gives a hard time to walk but she’s been able to get him moving! Thank you Rachel for taking care of Leo when I have long days! You’re appreciated!”

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. Depending on the time of year along with the weather my husband will walk your dog With Mickey if requested. Bedtime is always on the first floor with me in our guest room,they can snuggle in bed with Mickey and I or curl up in a dog bed in the room. Snacks are given if you allow just bring your own.

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.

About: I used to work at an animal shelter as a canine caregiver, where I worked with dogs of all different breeds, ages, sizes and backgrounds. I am currently a college student with a lot of free time and would love to spend that time doing what I love, working with dogs. I try to stay at the client’s home where the animal is the most comfortable. The client would normally show me their routine with the animal and I would try my best to follow as closely as possible during my time there.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have been caring for them most of my life, so being attentive to their needs comes naturally to me. I treat every pet like they’re my own; making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and pay close attention to routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, or just giving them the extra affection they’re used to. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and check-ins for peace of mind. I’m especially patient with shy or anxious dogs and take the time to help them feel at ease. My fiancé, Eric has also always grown up with dogs and was responsible for taking care of dogs and his cat while growing up and they all lived will into their senior years. He is great with more high energy and active dogs, going on long walks, or runs and hikes with them. I work full time where I commute Monday-Friday. Weekends I’m home. My Fiancé also works full time but he gets out a little earlier than I do. For weekend stays we are available to give your furry family the most attention and care. If there is need during the week I’m usually away from home for 10 hours during the day including my commute time to and from work. We will walk and feed them before we leave in the morning and as soon as either of us gets home will do the same and then again before bedtime. In our home, pets are cared for in a calm, safe environment. We live on the second floor of a house in a suburban neighborhood with sidewalks, which allows for safe, structured walks. While we don’t have direct yard access, we make sure dogs get regular walks, exercise, and attention. I also have a senior cat who is naturally shy and takes time to warm up, so I’m very understanding of pets who may be anxious or need a slower, more gentle approach. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or quiet time. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, and I always aim to make them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away.

“Michelle is amazing! We are new to the area and had a negative experience with a different sitter previously. I was so nervous to try someone new. We found Michelle and I am SO grateful!! I honestly think our dog didn’t want to leave her house. She sent tons of photos and updates. Our Great Dane is sensitive to new situations and will refuse to eat. Michelle waited with her during each meal so she would eat. She truly went above and beyond and I can not recommend her enough.”
“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.”
“Michael was absolutely fantastic! He took amazing care of our pups and kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear they were happy, well cared for, and in great hands. We are incredibly grateful for his dedication and would 100% trust him again for any future dog-sitting needs. Highly recommend!”
“This is the second time our boys have stayed with Krissy. She runs a tight ship and all goes smoothly. Krissy goes out of her way to ensure that both the dogs, and their human connections are comfortable with the routine. We have very big boys, who are really just spoiled children. I have to admit that Krissy spoils them more than we do! We will be back!”
“Kayla and her family did a great job watching Luna, our 17 month old cavapoo. We were leaving Luna overnight and when I told her we were worried that Luna would run out the front door, she was very empathetic to our concerns and bought a gate to put us at ease. That sealed it for me. I would definitely use Kayla again. Thank you Kayla and family!”
“Vanessa and her family took amazing care of my dog Timber. Timber is a medium large rescue with a lot of energy and still learning social manners but they handled him super well. We brought him over for play dates with their dog and boarding. Their backyard was perfect to play with him in. They made Timber feel right at home when we left him there for a few nights. They were so knowledgeable and caring. We plan to bring him back for a longer stay.”
“I was terribly nervous as this was the first time I left my dog with anyone, but from start to finish Victoria and her family made me feel so comfortable. She took great care of our dog, kept us updated, and promptly responded to our questions. Our boy was sooo happy during. I am so grateful to Victoria and will trust her with our pup whenever we need a sitter.”
“Highly recommended such a loving family. Sent great pictures and kept in touch several times a day. They took great care of my mischievous pet for two nights. Will always think of them for the future!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They kept my dog at their home for 2 days, sent updates and pictures, and were kind and attentive. It was clear my dog was happy and well taken care of. I’m very grateful and would absolutely book with them again.”
“Khrys took excellent care of our 2 pups! She sent tons of pics and videos, the pups seemed to be happy and having fun and Khrys came across as really caring and dog loving. Would not hesitate to have our pups stay with her next time we leave town.”
“Judy was awesome with my puppy Penny! She sent lovely pictures and made sure Penny was fed and happy when I picked her up. Penny loved her right away! Thanks Judy! We will be booking you every time we're in NYC!”
“I am an overprotective dog mommy. Sharon gained my trust immediately. Her yard, play time and individual care to our Kingsley is highly commendable! Have already recommended Sharon to another family member. Our dogs had no issues with each other, an absolute plus!”
“Tanu is so wonderful. She took excellent care of Clover and he didn’t want to leave her until she walked him to the car to say goodbye. Thank you for spoiling my baby!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Shirley for the weekend. He has separation anxiety and she was accommodating towards his needs to ensure he had a stress free stay with her. I appreciate how she was flexible with my drop off and pick up times. Would definitely hire her again!”
“Amazing family home, Diana and Mike are perfect sitters and the peace of mind they provided with the constant pics and updates truly made my trip that much better. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Kierra went above and beyond to make us feel safe leaving a hope alone with a Rover for the first time. She communicated effectively during every visit, took excellent photos, and took time to really provide Hope with the care and love we wanted. She played and sang to Hope, as well as kept her food and water clean and full. We told her she didn’t need to do the litter every day, but she did anyway. Kierra was respectful of the apartment complex and timely with returning our key. Heart of gold and a friend of animals indeed. She even helped us with extending booking (when we messed up 5 times), We couldn’t have had a better experience or human to take care of Hope (who is a rescue cat but had no issues warming up to kierra)”
“I had a great experience with Tina! She took the time to meet Summer on short notice before taking care of her. She sent pictures and updates twice a day and I could tell Summer had a great time. She also has a fenced backyard where Summer enjoyed playing fetch and getting her zoomies out. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
