We were initially nervous about leaving our older dog for that long, but Krystal made the experience completely stress-free.

We highly recommend Krystal!â

âAbsolutely incredible. They took great care of our baby boy, sent many updates, and we were able to rest assured Shoresy was in good hands and having fun.

Being away from home for work a couple of days at a time is no longer stressful as a pet parent. I am truly thankful for Rosandy and Edward, God has blessed me by having them in my life.â

âRachel is a wonderful dogwalker! I have a shy rescue chihuahua mix named Benny. Despite typically being slow to open up to new people, he is clearly obsessed with Rachel and has gained a lot of confidence since walking with her and the other dogs. I would recommend Rachel to anyone and hope to continue to have her work with Benny in the future. Thanks Rachel!!â

About: I've cared for pets my whole life and enjoy doing so. Before losing by beloved fur son last year, I would walk him and my cousins dog when he would go out of town. Along with the dogs and cats I've encountered, I strongly prioritized providing them with mental stimulation. Walking and challenging play is essential to their wellbeing and I've encouraged friends with pets to do more on their behalf. As an afterschool tennis coach, the flexibility and active work would be best for my shift at 1:30pm and after 6pm. This kind of work keeps me engaged and on my feet. I follow the owners strict diets and regiments for their fur babies and keep things tidy. I respect the pet as I would any adult or pet of my own by keeping a close eye on them and developing a loving and trusted relationship.

âThank you Katerina for your amazing care for our babies!! Would recommend her for anybody who wants peace of mind when you're out of town - she was very caring, communicative, and takes great pics!â


About: Iâm a lifelong animal lover with 15 years of experience walking dogs and caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Thereâs nothing I enjoy more than spending time with furry friendsâwhether itâs energetic morning walks, cozy cuddle sessions, or simply making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while youâre away. I treat every dog (and cat!) like one of my own, with patience, plenty of affection, and reliable care. You can count on me to keep your pup active and engaged, follow your routines carefully, and send you updates so you never have to wonder how theyâre doing. Iâd love to meet you and your pet and help create a positive, stress-free experience for everyone. Looking forward to chatting! đžââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââ

âAlexandra did a great job with our 17 year old cat. We were out of town for 3 days and came back to a very clean living space and a very content Isis. Would definitely recommend Alexandra for overnight sitting with your pet!â


âI have used Robin's services before and it was easy to contact her and keep in touch with her. Robin made sure my cat ate even when she was in hiding. She sent me pictures and I was able to pick her up after the snow storm. I will always use Robin for my future needs.â


âTrinity was great .She was very pleasant and took my furry friend for a walk. I will continue having her to help me walk my dog. Thank you Trinity.She was very prompt as well!!â

âI am very happy with Irene. She was professional, caring, and made sure my pets felt comfortable and loved. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend.â


About: Cats are great because they want to do everything youâre doing, with you. Which is very motivating if you like the company, I love it. I also oddly like to clean litterboxes, and donât mind the smell at all honestly. We all have to do our business somehow, and Iâve cleaned up worse!
âShannakee did a lovely job with my needy cats! I have 3 large cats that have to eat wet food as part of their diet. She came and cleaned up after them, gave them lots of love and attention and was very responsive.â


About: I have been taking care of cats since I was 7 years old. Over the years, Iâve gained solid experience and a deep understanding of their personalities, needs, and independent nature. I

âLeaving another five star review to thank Dayanara for her services. She did an amazing job giving us peace of mind for our two cats while we were away for a couple weeks on vacation. She double checked our automated water and feeder were always topped up, and went out of her way to make sure our automatic vacuum was seated properly in it's dock. I haven't trusted anyone else on any platform to watch my cats for the past few years and we're beyond lucky she was still available this past month. Thanks Dayanara!â

âWhat a lovely person - Iâd give her 100 stars if that were an option. To explain, I had to go into my office LAST minute and at 1230 am it was my first time using this app and I posted requests for someone to basically dog sit for the same day- she was immediately responsive even though it was a last minute request. I saw she had already gotten consistent great reviews and I was worried to leave my 7 week old shih tsu (like a baby) with anyone ) -Jameeka she handles all dog ages - she was responsive, kept me updated throughout the day. I even got stuck in traffic on the way for pick up and was late she was fine. The top 3 reasons I give Jameeka 5 stars is because 1) she is the opposite of stressful and worked with my unique needs, 2) she has great communication skills snd 3) it is clear she is an expert - my puppy was returned perfectly she gave me some updates and my puppy was happy and fell right asleep because Jameeka ensured my puppy got play time and exercise time - thank you !â


âI had a wonderful experience with Stephanie as our dog sitter! She took care of my dog overnight and did an amazing job. I received daily updates and adorable photos, which made me feel so at ease. She was incredibly pleasant, accommodating, and truly seemed to care about my pet's well-being. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!â

âLauren was very accommodating when I had to reschedule my appointment and I was happy we could work out alternate plans. I was kept updated throughout Albert's stay and will reach out to Lauren again.â

âRachel is amazing! I was very impressed at our first meeting. She asked if I had time for a walk with her and her dog Rockz. As we walked we talked and I felt comfortable leaving Kamaria in her care. She introduced another dog to Kamaria on our return and things went great. She is very knowledgeable of the bully breed and caring with a clean environment. She is very active with Kamaria. She loves going to daycare with Rachel as she gets so excited waiting to go inside. We will definitely use Rachel again! Thank youâ

I take the time to understand each dogâs personality, routine, and needs, and I treat every pet with patience, respect, and plenty of love. You can trust me to give your dog the same care and attention I would give my own.

âRobin was the BEST! She agreed to do a meet and greet with me and even brought her pups to meet my princess Honey. Even though I felt comfortable with her through our chats, meeting her in person beforehand put the cherry on top. Once booked, she took great care of of my Honey girl, sent so many photos and gave me cute updates while I was at work. This was my first booking and definitely will not be the last. She can absolutely be trusted with your fur babies. Iâm so glad I took a chance as she made the experience worthwhile. Now my Honey has a home away from home!! Thank you Robin, see you again :)â

âLisa is EXCELLENT! You can truly feel that she does this from her heart. She not only cares for your fur baby but she educates you as a pet parent as well. She welcomed us at the meet and greet with open arms. I have a dog who is anxious and has separation anxiety. Lisa is noticed this and used her skills to calm her down. We used her for doggie day care and she sent numerous updates along the way, which I appreciated it. My baby feels comfortable with Lisa and so does I. We look forward to the continuous relationship.â

âKaylee is so kind and accommodating. I brought my dog to her home for daycare and he was under the weather the whole time but Kaylee made him feel so loved and cared for. She truly treats them like family and makes them feel at home. My dog Frankie didnât want to leave after I picked him up :)â

âOur Buddy Rumpus spent the whole day playing! We got pictures of a happy boy all day long. We're always nervous about leaving him with someone new but he was in great hands. She even brushed him before we brought him home.â

About: My name is Naseeb. Growing up I had lots of pets in my life; kittens, cats, dogs and even birds, fishes. Currently I have no pets but lots of free time to take care of your pet and give them all of my attention to. I also do not mind cooking meals at home. Any time and day of the week just give me a heads up! I have long driveway, backyard, and live in a 2 floor home and can also walk the dog in my safe neighborhood. Leave the pet at my home and pick up whenever you feel ready. I will feed them, play and walk the pet and make sure the pet is content.

âIwona was fantastic and updated me frequently. She was very kind to my dog, who has a lot of anxiety but Iwona handled it with a lot of grace and seemed like my dog didn't want to come back from having such a good time Would recommend!â


âDayana was amazing with Charley, she was content and tired by the time I picked her up which is perfect! Dayana was easy to communicate with and incredibly friendly!â

âVanessa is a gem - responsive, polite, clean, caring, loving, and always available. We were looking for a pet sitter who could provide a loving and stable environment for our pup with separation anxiety, as we wanted to reduce his reliance on medication. Vanessa exceeded our expectations, providing a calm and nurturing presence that has greatly benefited our Blaze. We're grateful to have found her, and her care has given us peace of mind. If you're seeking a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter, Vanessa is an excellent choice.â

âEmily and her family are wonderful people! Iâm very grateful to have found them, my dog Ollie has such a fantastic time with them every single time! I have a hectic schedule with work but I know that when I drop Ollie off he is in great hands! Emily is kind, responsive, polite and overall a great person. She is super understanding and flexible, a true animal lover and caring person. Definitely would recommend and will be returning back!â

âFrancesca was an amazing sitter! This was my first time leaving Louis with someone, and I couldnât have asked for a better experience. He instantly connected with Francesca and her sweet pup, Alvin. She kept me updated with lots of cute pictures. Louis looked so relaxed and happy in every photo. Iâm grateful Francesca was available to care for Louis. I will definitely reach out for future bookings. I highly recommend!â

âI am really thankful I found Arianna. My dog warmed up to her very quickly , she gives helpful updates and I am so thankful for how accommodating she is. Sway & I thank you.â

âJhoceline was great with our puppy. We were nervous at first to do doggy day care because it would be his first time away from our home, but Jhoceline really put us at ease. She kept in contact with us by sending pictures and updates everyday he was with her. She took great care of our little boy! Would definitely recommend her to anyone!â

âDoris is a very sweet and caring person. She took a great care of my Molly. She gave my girl lots of attention and took her out for walks. Iâll definitely get back to Doris for more help with my girl.â

âThis was my fur baby, Miloâs first time attending daycare. Initially, I was concerned about how he would adjust to a new environment. The fact that Stephanie provided me with pictures and contacted me prior to his stay made me feel more comfortable leaving him with her. It was a pleasant surprise to see Stephanie had created a welcoming environment and her fur baby was also present, which I felt was an excellent opportunity for Milo to be able to socialize with other dogs. In addition to toys and treats, Stephanie provided Milo with everything he needed to feel comfortable. Additionally, Stephanie sent many updates and pictures of Milo throughout the day. As soon as I picked him up, I could tell he had enjoyed his stay and that he would be returning in the future. Stephanie, thank you so much for taking such excellent care of Milo!â

About: I grew up with large and small dogs since I was young. My first dog was a pitbull so no I donât think theyâre dangerous, so much so I own a cane corso now. I love all types of dogs and rescued a few strays to give to new families. I have done the same with cats and birds, yes birds. I found strays from new born to even elderly, took care of them and learned how to do basic grooming care like clipping nails and trimming coats. I train my dogs pretty well, Iâm not no professional, but they know many key tricks perfectly. Iâm currently going to college but it is night classes so Iâm free for the entire morning till early afternoon. Iâm available for any services unless already booked or stated unavailable for personal reasons. I am free any time from 10am to 4pm Monday Tuesday Wednesday. Sunday Thursday and Friday 6am to 4pm. Saturday 6am to 12pm If there is clients with multiple dogs I know how to stop a scuffle before or during so donât worry too much on that. I would like to know any allergies and during check ins their feeding regimens. Honestly I love all fur babies and giving them that extra TLC, brushing that winter coat off or just in general keeping them company.
âLilo loves Pearl! She was available for a last minute hour long walk and so communicative before/during! Really appreciate her kindness and availability. Thanks, Pearl :)â

About: I have been taking care of as well as walking dogs since I was 17 years old around the city and in Queens. My partner had a pomeranian girl that I got to live with for 3 years until unfortunately she passed away, her name was Lilly :) and she was twelve years old. I love dogs and enjoy being in their company. I have a good amount of experience when it comes to noticing when a dog is upset. I have worked a lot with dog-sitting. My mom's boss gave me the opportunity to dogsit his bulldog Albert while he goes away the whole summer and constantly travels throughout the year. I understand the love and care that a dog or kitty might need when this occurs. I work remotely and go into the office twice a week, spending most of my time at home which allows me take care of your pet throughout the day. My typical work hours in person are from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. I reside in a cozy, spacious apartment that is filled with beautiful natural light and fresh air, creating a warm atmosphere. My partner and I are pet lovers and we are committed to ensuring that any pets in our care will be cherished and well looked after.
About: My prominent pet care experience this year is with large dogs and kitties. Most of my dog experience is with big dogs, Iâm happy to visit with small doggies too! Apart from pet care, I teach classes across the city (one hour classes throughout the week). Itâs great when I have the opportunity to be with animals. Itâs a little bit more chore work of course⌠I give all of the pet owners credit for doing what you do. During all visits I'm available by call or text. I provide quality care yet I do understand that sometimes when youâre away you might want a photo or two.
âItâs been amazing experience with Shannakae as a first time user of Rover. She is very caring and patient with our Cane Corso. You can tell that she really enjoys what she does. She is very genuine and easy to talk to. Great with communication! Wow! We love that she looks out for our dogâs best interest by giving us any recommendations that make him feel more comfortable and safe. Our dogs fell in love with her right away. She takes care of Hachi as her own :) At first, I was a bit worried because weâve never hired a dog walker through the app, but Shannakae gives us piece of mind. I would recommend hiring her anytime, hands down! We are extremely pleased and thankful for how well she takes care of Hachi. Your pet will be in good hands! She is very reliable, quick responsive and extremely friendly. Hachi adores her! We look forward to continuing working with you! :)â


âIf you havenât booked Irene yet Iâd suggest you do so. Sheâs amazing and itâs clear she absolutely loves animals! She was so awesome with Stoney. Stoney is super energetic and tends to pull on walks. Thanks for your patience! I would absolutely book with her again!!â

About: I have over a decade of experience as a pet owner with dogs of all sizes. I am happy to help petowners balance their own needs while also balancing their fur babiesâ needs. I work a 9-5 remotely that is generally busier during the weekdays with more open availability during the weekends and towards the end of the work week. In order to be able to tend to the needs of pets appropriately, I have limited my availability to the days where I have room to look after pets properly. I keep my pets indoors. To keep things simple and for the safety of all pets involved, I do not open my home to other pets. I am however, open to caring for pets in their own homes which is generally what they are most comfortable in.
About: Iâm a lifelong animal lover with 20 years of experience walking dogs and caring for pets of all kinds. At home I share my life with two dogs and a cat, so I truly understand the special bond we have with our fur babies. To me, theyâre not just animalsâtheyâre my family. When I care for your pet, I treat them exactly the same way: with patience, plenty of affection, and the kind of attention Iâd give my own. Whether itâs energetic walks, cozy cuddles, playtime, or simply keeping their routine consistent, your pet will feel safe, loved, and completely at home with me. Iâll always send updates and photos so you can relax knowing theyâre happy and well cared for. Iâd love to meet you and your furry family memberâlooking forward to chatting! đžââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââ I can provide midday care to give your loved ones some relief throughout the day. No one likes being cramped up in the house all day so I look to provide that peace of mind knowing theyâre well taken care of and considered while youâre at work or school. I follow your instructions with the most care and attention humanly possible. Each pet requires their own unique way of being cared for so for everyone to feel safe and considered I take most precautions while serving you and your family
About: Iâve been a dedicated dog owner for 9+ years, caring for my French Bulldog through every stage of her lifeâfrom playful puppy to senior yearsâwhich taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to adapt to a dogâs changing needs. I now have a Cavapoo and love going through all the puppy milestones again, including basic training, routines, and socialization. Iâm especially attentive to each dogâs personality, whether that means keeping up with an energetic pup or providing gentle, patient care for older dogs. I genuinely treat every dog like my ownâmaking sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while youâre away. I currently have a flexible schedule and am not working a traditional job, which allows me to dedicate focused time and attention to pet care. Iâm starting with weekend availability so I can provide consistent, reliable care and ensure each pet gets my full attention. As I get established, Iâm open to expanding my availability. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and can easily plan my week around their needs When caring for pets in their home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I always do a quick check to make sure there are no hazards or anything unsafe within reach, and I follow the ownerâs instructions closely to keep their routine consistent. I give pets time to warm up to me at their own pace, using a calm and patient approach to build trust. Once theyâre comfortable, I make sure they get plenty of attention, play, and care based on their energy level and personality. I also provide regular updates with photos and messages so owners feel reassured and connected while theyâre away
About: My name is Deshaun, a former tv meteorologist, and I love dogs. I am experienced with taking care of dogs through family and friends. Giving animals as much love as possible is my motto. Show them as much love and attention as possible and always be on alert with pets. Never leave peers on their own. Make sure that they are well fed. Iâm currently in between jobs, so I have all the time in the world. I will dedicate a lot of time into taking care of my clients I treat my clientâs home with top care. I will never bring strangers into their homes, keep everything clean and tidy and avoid rooms that are banned.
About: i have an 12 year old cat and have HAD a pit bull! iâm very organized and easy to comply with. i will love your fur babies like their my own! i have a cat and sheâs my responsibility. my cat has to be fed during the day, a cleaned litter box once a day. and water changes twice daily, and i also love to feed the outside kitties too my cat gets a bowl of dry food at 7am and has that to eat until 7pm, where i feed her wet food. litter box cleaned once every day and water changed twice a day
About: I love looking after pets and getting to know each of their unique personalities. I think animals make the world a better place by being here. They teach us about patience, love, loss, and growth. The great thing about all pets is they're all different in their own way and they all offer love. I have two cats at home, who are pretty low maintenance, they need plenty of love and play time. I dedicate every day more than an hour to each cat to make sure they feel loved and entertained. It obviously entertains me as well! Patience and looking for warning signs are very important. Taking time to communicate to the pet owners of any concerns is also a priority if that is the case. I think a good line of communication is super helpful. Getting to know the pets is helpful too.

âKiersten and Casey were the best Dogsitters weâve had hands down! Incredibly attentive, tons of pictures, and it was clear June was as happy as could be. Thanks again guys!â

âThe experience with Ruth U was dynamic for our fur baby Buddy. I truly appreciated getting videos of his ventures in a warm and loving environment. We will utilize their wonderful services in the future. We gave our tip in person yesterday at drop-off.â

âVanessa is very professional and attentive with Storm. She makes sure that her medication is given on time with her food. Vanessa has watched Storm several times and we've been very happy with her great service. We will continue to use her.â

âRachel was amazing! I truly appreciate the updates each evening. It put me at ease while I was away. She was very observant of Tobyâs behaviors and his comfort level which I appreciated. Toby & I canât wait to book again. Thanks again Rachel â¤ď¸â

âAbsolutely incredible. They took great care of our baby boy, sent many updates, and we were able to rest assured Shoresy was in good hands and having fun. When our flight home got delayed, they were extremely accommodating and went way above and beyond to help us out. We will definitely be using them again- Shoresy had an amazing time!â

âRalph did a great job taking care of my anxious senior dog! He made sure he knew what she needed to have a comfortable stay and sent plenty of updates throughout the week so I never had to worry. Would definitely recommend!â

âJust picked up Winston from his second time doing daycare with Abbas, and we couldnât be happier! Abbas takes care of our dog like he is his own & is super communicative the entire time weâre gone. We are so happy to have found a consistent sitter for Winston and would recommend his services to anyone!â

âI am a repeat customer and I can always rely on her for updates and attention to detail. Mac loves staying with her, and the support she offers goes above and beyond. Thank you!â

âSteven was great with Maya for her stay. She came home exhausted and happy and we got constant updates and photos to know she was doing great. Will definitely send her back!â

âAnky watched Penny while we were away for a long weekend and she was extremely communicative and reliable, sharing lots of pictures and updates! We will definitely book with her again!â

âEvangelia took excellent care of my dog, Mai Tai; she came home smelling like she had been bathed and brushed, and she seemed happy. I am grateful that I found a reliable, affordable pet sitter here on Rover.â

âMinyon did a wonderful job with my corgi, he was so happy in all the pictures and videos that were sent. I'd definitely book a stay with Minyon again!â


âIwona was wonderful for the moment I messaged her. She was very communicative and understanding on all the directions I gave her. My dog needed medication and some special needs and Iwona took care of everything with no problem. I look forward to booking with her again, as I know everything will be so seamless and Iâm now very trusting of her. Thanks again!â

âDiana is a true blessing! My dog Loretta has very very bad anxiety and separation anxiety. But Loretta is my baby! I love her and treat her like one of my children. Diana was WONDERFUL with her. She was with her 5 days and kept me up to date with everything. Pictures and everything. She gave me the biggest peace of mind. She made my vacation so enjoyable knowing my girlie was in the BEST hands! I would recommend Diana to anyone who wants their dog to be well taken care of and loved. Thank you Diana for loving my Loretta and treating her the way we do.â

âI needed to find a last minute sitter as my usual one is unavailable. She is local to me which is great. We arranged for a meet and greet with our dogs and all went well (her dogs are so sweet!). She is very accommodating to my dog's needs and after picking her up the next day, she was so exhausted from a great time with Lauren and her family (humans and pets). We will definitely be booking with Lauren again!â

âLindsay is great! Received consistent updates on all the fun Mavis was having with her new doggie friends. I know she was well taken care of and would definitely book again.â

âAstro was incredible with Dahlia, who seemed like she enjoyed every minute of her stay! It was very apparent that Astro treated Dahlia like her own pup, taking great care to keep her daily routines intact, even asking me about dog park suitability and walking habits. She assured me she could handle quite a strong dog, given her experience, and I had zero concerns the entire time. She also sent great photos and videos and checked in unprompted, which I really appreciated. I would recommend Astro to anyone, and would be grateful if Dahlia had the chance to stay with her again! Thank you Astro for taking such good care of our girl.â
