“Sonia is an amazing dog sitter! Very kind, caring and responsible. Treated my dog like her own. Lives in a beautiful neighborhood to walk dogs. Very easy to talk to and arrange dates and times. Sent pictures every day. My dog made new friends and had a nice vacation with Sonia and her family.”
“Our dog Laika had her first experience of being with a sitter for several days and we were fortunate to have met wonderful people in Natasha and Hamir. Their kindness and attentiveness are extraordinary and they ensured to make our dog as comfortable as possible giving her love and care which made her feel as if at home. Natasha and Hamir were communicating daily with brief recap of the day and Laika’s photos from her walk and during her cozy downtime. They were willing to accommodate any requests we had. Natasha and Hamir are one of a kind and we can only wholeheartedly recommend them as wonderful people and dog lovers. We surely found a place we can call a “home-way-from home” for our Laika in the future as well.”
“I had a last minute request and Jomini responded almost immediately and saved the day. She asked questions to make sure my dog had the proper precautions to be outdoors at her place and checked with me about any specific schedule before drop off. She was super responsive and flexible with timing for drop off / pick up. She sent so many pictures of my dog and I could see he was having a great time!”
“Great experience from beginning to end. It was our first time leaving Gigi with a sitter. Dew kept us updated and sent photos, which was a great comfort to us. Will definitely use her again.”
“Katharine is a kind person who has clearly demonstrated her love of dogs. Our 6 year old dachshund does not take to everyone as quickly as he did Katharine. We particularly appreciated her great communication throughout his 5 day stay with photos and wonderful stories. We will surely ask her again.”
“Obi came back happy and healthy. He was well taken care of and Maxine was great at sending daily pictures, updates. We definitely were able to take vacation without worrying about Obi. Thanks to Maxine and family for taking care of our lil' guy.”
“Cannot recommend Barbara enough for both overnight and doggy day care services!! great outdoor space at her home and located right near a phenomenal park where the dogs get to go on extra long walk with her. our dog always comes back happy, and tired from all the playing with her dog, Lou. Lincoln runs straight to her door when we got there for drop off and Barbara is super responsive + sends great pictures / videos the whole time we are away.”
“Arianne and her family took such great care of Luke. This is the second time Luke has stayed with them and once again Arianne was very patient with Luke, helped him adjust and always kept me informed as to how he was doing. She sent me daily pictures and was very quick to respond to all my messages. When I picked up Luke he was very calm and he looked well taken care of. You guys are awesome!”
“Arsenii takes great care of Bubba like always! We can rest assured that Bubba would have a great time when we are in vacation if he’s with Arsenii. He’s simply Bubba’s favorite :)”
About: I’ve taken care of my childhood dog from puppy to senior. I enjoyed training and grooming my puppy and making my senior dog a power bowl. I am a very active person - a hiker, marathoner, boxer, and cyclist, I can exhaust your furry babies however they want! And I particularly have a good sense of reading animal behavior, meaning if your dog needs a therapist, I am a very good listener;) I currently work flexible hours, so I have plenty of time to give your furry babies attention any time of the day. Boarding, walking and house sitting are all welcome weekdays or weekends. Boarding: I am in a 2bd condo with balcony without any pet in a quiet neighborhood. I am walking distance to a lot of trails (paved and non-paved) that your dog can take advantage of. Sitting: tell me your pet’s routine, I will be accountable!
“We loved our first Rover experience with Hayden and crew! Midge felt at home with them and was well cared for. She came home nice and tired from playing with Amos and Edgar all weekend (an added bonus for high-energy-pup parents)!”
“At Julia's house, Chipie feels like her second home. We were able to go on vacation calm knowing that the dog would be in good hands again. Thanks again for taking such good care of her.”
“Irene and her family did a wonderful job taking care of Nibbles! As soon as we drove up, Irene and her husband came to greet us and Nibbles felt comfortable with both of them immediately. She sent me pictures throughout the time he was there and I am so grateful that I found her!”
“Natacha was a God-sent. She watched out 7 month old Husky, Samon for 3 days. Natacha had a gorgeous Husky herself. She sent up pic and updates daily. We felt confident that Samson would be safe in Natacha's care, and he was. We will be using her again in the future to care for Samson. Could not have asked for a better sitter!”
“Jessica and her husband were clearly so patient and understanding about sitting for a senior dog. Salto came back happy and excited! They sent regular photos and updates. I would absolutely have Salto stay with them again if we are in the area.”
“I went on a last-minute trip, and was having trouble finding a place for my dogs to stay at. I found Farva on rover and it was the best decision I ever made to have my dogs stay with her. She is amazing at taking care of your furry ones. I will definitely be going to her again for any of my future trips! Thank you so much, Farva!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience having Erika watch our dog, Gotham, for the week! She took amazing care of him and treated our furbaby like her own. Erika stayed in touch the entire time, sending pictures and updates that gave us such peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Gotham was happy, comfortable, and well-loved. We highly recommend Erika to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! 🐾❤️”
“I can not say enough good things about Chloe!! This was our first time leaving Pinta since we adopted her, and I was anxious to say the least. Chloe made me feel completely at ease about leaving her. She was great with communicating how Pinta was doing and sent a lot of pictures of our girl having a blast. So thankful to have found a place that I'll feel comfortable leaving our Pinta girl!”
“My dog’s stay was wonderful! Debbie’s home is set up like a little doggy daycare, and it’s absolutely precious. She sent daily photos, and it was clear my dog was receiving excellent care and having a great time. I was so grateful to be able to enjoy my vacation knowing my furry daughter was happy, safe, and comfortable. Thank you, Debbie, for taking such wonderful care of her! I will definitely be booking with you again.”

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was a child! My love for animals has motivated me to enroll in vet tech school, starting this fall. I specialize in small mammals, such as rabbits and hamsters, and have owned my own. I have also cared for guinea pigs, parakeets, and aquariums. For dogs, I have experience working with both small and large breeds! I regularly look after my neighbor's dog, and love every opportunity I get to spend time with her. For cats, I have primarily done drop in visits, but have experience with administering medicine to shy cats by building trust over time. I currently do not own pets of my own, so I will be able to give your pet my full attention and care! I am currently spending my summer before starting vet tech school working part time, volunteering at local shelters, and shadowing at clinics. I work weekends, but can still do an early morning or evening visit if needed! Your pet's comfort and safety is my number one priority and I will care for them as if they are my own! Communication and trust is important to me, so I will update you regularly on their happiness and health.
About: I've had cats my whole life and know how to make them feel at home. Guest cats stay in their own private room, completely separate from my resident cats, with fresh food, water, a clean litter box, and visits throughout the day. My home is calm and quiet and I treat every cat like my own.
About: It seems that I have always had a cat living in my house my entire life. Friendly cats and grumpy cats. Seniors and kittens. I've given them flea baths and meds. Playtime and cuddles. Cats are opinions and attitudes in a furry wrapping. Some are like dogs, but most are more independent - and that is what makes them a cat.
About: I’ve always loved spending time with cats and getting to know their unique personalities. I’m patient, gentle, and make sure each cat feels safe and cared for. I’m happy to help with feeding, playtime, litter box cleaning, and giving them company while you’re away.

“Tara did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats while we were away! She provided us with detailed updates and photos every visit and was excellent with communication. Would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“She did a great job. I enjoyed her updates which provided detailed information and included lots of pictures. She also obviously went out of her way to play with the cats who needed more stimulation, and snuggled the others who just wanted attention.”
About: I am a cat mom to two indoor and 5 outdoor cats. Caring for cats is truly my love language. One of my indoor boys was feral and retains some antisocial behaviors, so I am very well versed in how to approach cats with various behavioral tendencies. Whether they need their space, attention from afar, or close up cuddles and playtime, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable.
About: I was a hands on member in my own dogs professional training, and I have taken care of friends and family’s dogs of all ages and breeds so there’s really nothing I haven’t seen before. That being said, I am well-versed in the high demand and needs of puppies and can confidently say that I am trained to care for them and all the hurdles that they entail. Having rescued my fur baby as a puppy off of the streets, she’s had her fair share of difficulties. Everyday has been such a blessing to see how far she’s come, and continues to. I have such a firm belief that dogs are truly a man’s best friend, and their greatest companion and deserve all the time and love that they deserve. Just from getting in walks everyday, to intentionally setting time aside to play with them is so important. In my home, I pretty much hang out with my Blaze as much as I possibly can. Every hour that I’m home, my dog is right by my side. Even when leaving the house my Blaze is in the backseat of my car ready for a road trip. I think to be deserving of a dogs love means putting in the time to treat them with the care they require, whether that time goes to an extra long walk, or play time with the ball, or even making sure she’s getting all the nutrients she needs in her food. How I can for my dog is how I intend to care for any future clients dog, with care and time.
About: Growing up, my family adopted cats that were going to be euthanized and would re-home them. I used to teach the less desired cats tricks, so that they were more likely to get adopted❤️ So, I've always been around cats, but can't have one where I currently live. I'd really like to hang out with any cat, however they'd like.
About: I've been around dogs all my life and I'm a big advocate for the bully breeds. I know how to hold a big strong dog that just wants to say hello. I can keep a steady pace for walks and hold tightly for random pass-by animals. Keeping commands firm and using the proper commands when the unexpected happens is something I excel in because of my experience of working with children. Fifteen plus years working with children ranging from the ages 3-11. I know a dog is part of the family, I have 2 of my own (a cat too!). I've had 10 plus in pet care and 20 plus years in pet ownership. Let me care for your fur-baby. My schedule is very clear for any pet care needs. I was working part time but now I’m looking for pet care as my job. I’m very watchful and observant from years of child care and from my own pets, I want the pets to be safe all the time.
“It was such a relief to be able to go on vacation and know our cats weren't just being fed, but truly taken care of. Stacy was very communicative and we could tell she made good friends with our cats - they still ask when shes coming back. She came over in advance to get a lay of the land and meet them and learn all their hiding spots. She even took the litter when she left so we wouldn't have to deal with it. Stacy really was wonderful and knowing our cats were being loved by someone with such great experience while we were away was such a gift!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my ability to adapt to each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with everything from energetic puppies who need consistent training and playtime, to senior dogs who require gentle care, medication, and patience. I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable—whether it’s a long walk, structured routines, or just extra cuddles. You can count on me to treat your pet like family while keeping communication open and consistent. Being in college means I’m away from my own dog, who I cared for every day. Pet sitting helps fill that gap—I get to give other pets the same love, attention, and consistency I gave my own. I plan my days around classes so I always have plenty of time for walks, play, and cuddles. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do on the side—it’s something I genuinely miss and enjoy, which makes every visit special. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it my priority to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. Whether that means regular walks, feeding on schedule, playtime, or administering medications, I follow your instructions closely so your pet feels safe and cared for. I’ve always been a dependable and trustworthy person—throughout high school I was an honor roll student and someone people could rely on. Now in college, I bring that same reliability and dedication to pet care, treating every pet like they’re my own.
“I highly recommend Nicole. She took care of my 3 cats while away for 1 week. She made sure they were all fed and well cared for- sending me video updates. By accident my cleaning lady let them out but Nicole made sure they all came safely home. When I arrived home the place was spotless.”
“Allie is amazing. She goes above and beyond! On time very caring and sweet to the animals. She followed instructions to a tee and communicated as needed. I am going to book her again and again.”
About: I’ve been around cats for much of my life and have experience caring for both my own pets and those of friends and family. I currently live with a senior cat, giving me firsthand experience with the patience, attention, and specialized care older cats may need. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, learning about any specific-needs, cleaning litter boxes, and providing plenty of affection while respecting each cat’s unique personality and boundaries.

“Dew goes above and beyond for my puppy. Checks in regularly when he is in her care and even checks in when he is at home. As a first time user of a dog-sitter, I was anxious about leaving my puppy in someone else’s care. Dew almost immediately alleviated my concerns. I feel like her care has been a major benefit for me and for my puppy’s social development. Will continue to take advantage of Dew’s services for the foreseeable future. Highly recommended!”
“Chloe is the best! She took care of my 10 month old puppy, Hazel, while I was at work for the day & Hazel had the best time! She loved running around with Chloe’s two sweet puppies who are so friendly and playful! Chloe sent me several updates, pictures and videos throughout the day. I could tell she made a special effort to help Hazel feel comfortable in her new environment for the day. Highly recommended, will be calling Chloe again for doggy daycare soon!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a child. I owned two Miniature Pinschers growing up and I adopted one Australian Shepherd mix that has special needs as an adult. I trained all of my dogs from the time they were puppies until they passed away as seniors. I also volunteered at the Humane Society of Westchester. I've always enjoyed being around animals since I was young and animals tend to feel the same way about me. Animals who are usually timid around strangers are comfortable around me right away and they seem to trust me right away. I feel like connecting with animals (dogs specifically) is a gift that I have. Being a sitter is a great way for me to use that gift in everyday life. New clients get a free 2027 desk calendar that has photos of my clients and my dog as well (check my photos for a preview). I'm able to adapt to the normal routine of the pets that I'm sitting in order to make the process as smooth as possible. I don't have a lot of room in my studio apartment so I'm only able to watch either 1-2 small dogs or one medium sized dog. Large dogs are too big for my apartment. If I'm at a client's home, I'll change my schedule to meet the needs of the pet. I believe all animals are unique and all have different needs in order to thrive in the environment that they're in. I'm willing to meet those needs by building my schedule around the animals that I'm sitting.
About: I've had cats and dogs my whole life and know how to make animals feel comfortable and cared for. I offer dog walking and cat boarding from my home in Yorktown Heights. Guest cats stay in their own private room with fresh food, water, and a clean litter box. For dog walking I keep things low stress, consistent, and fun. I work from home regularly so I'm around often and take every pet's routine seriously. I treat every animal like my own. I work from home frequently which means pets in my care are never left alone for long stretches. For dog walking I'm flexible on timing and can work around your schedule for morning, afternoon, or evening walks. For cat boarding, guest cats get visits multiple times a day including morning feeding, a midday check-in, and an evening wind-down with fresh food, clean water, and a scooped litter box. Weekends I'm generally very available and weekdays I can accommodate most requests with a little advance notice. I genuinely enjoy spending time with and meeting new animals so this isn't a job to me, it's a passion. I have a dog and two cats of my own so I know firsthand what animals need to feel safe and comfortable. Guest cats are kept in their own private, dedicated room completely separate from my resident pets, giving them a quiet space to decompress and settle in at their own pace. For dog walking I keep things calm and consistent, always on leash, through the safe residential streets of Yorktown Heights or local parks where my dog frequents himself. I pay close attention to each animal's personality and adjust my approach accordingly. Whether a pet is social and energetic or shy and cautious, I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. My home is peaceful, clean, and genuinely pet friendly.
“We were very pleased with the accomodations. Tucker enjoyed his time with Laurie. She was very nice and very professional and kept us up to date on his walks and if there were any questions she posed them. Great communication! Very reasonable as well! I will definitely book with Laurie again in the future.”

“Irene has made my experience using Rover so easy and carefree. This is my first time leaving my dog, and she is extremely confident with her handling. I enjoy the pictures and updates she sends me throughout the day too!”
“This is the 8th time Skye stays with Brenda. Skye is always happy when she realiizes she is going to Brenda’s house, and comes home happy as well, and today also bathed. Brenda is always quick to answer and sweet. It is great to be able to count on her help when we need. Thanks again, Brenda”
About: I have been an animal lover my whole life, but didn’t truly realize my appreciation for them until high school when I started pet sitting (over ten years ago!) I would watch my friends’ pets when they were on vacation, and felt compelled to make the pets’ stay with me a vacation as well 🐶😊. Since I started watching dogs I always considered them my PIC (partner in crime.). I take them with me on all my adventuress! They meet all my family and friends, and I have even taken a dog on a weekend trip to Block Island (with owners permission of course!) These days, I am home most of the day. I have a small business, which I run out of my home. I am home for majority of the day, but often have to step out for no more than 2 hours at a time. I typically give dogs 2 long walks (30-40 minutes) a day, and take them out in the yard and small walks down the street at least 5 times a day. They get potty breaks every 2-3 hours. I am a VERY active person. I am a marathon runner and avid hiker. No matter what your dog’s activity level is, I will be sure to tucker them out🐶😂. My typical morning and evening walk for dogs is a mile and a half around the reservoir trail in my back yard. I am more than happy to adjust to match your dog’s needs. I live on a small private street. My family and dear neighbors are all nearby. My large yard, close knit community, woods, reservoir trails and loving family truly is a paradise for dogs🐶😊❤️ My schedule varies every day. I can be in and out throughout the day, but never away from home for more than 2-3 hours at a a time. I am typically home for the day by 3pm. Some days I am home all day! It really depends on the week. I live alone and have no pets. I live in a private street with lots of land to explore. I never take dogs off leash when we are outside.
“Alexis took excellent care of River Rose during her two-day stay. From the moment River was dropped off, I felt confident she was in great hands. Alexis sent daily photos, videos, and updates, which meant so much to me as a very overprotective dog mom. River Rose is incredibly special to me, and Alexis made me feel completely at ease the entire time. It was clear that she genuinely cared for River and treated her as if she were her own pet. The love, attention, and care she provided exceeded my expectations. I can't recommend Alexis enough and will absolutely be booking with her again in the future. I'd also be happy to serve as a reference for anyone considering her services. Thank you, Alexis, for taking such wonderful care of River Rose!”
“Barbara is wonderful! She was open to answer any questions we may have had and we felt completely assured that our Laika was in caring and loving hands and she had great time taking walks in nearby park and spending the day in Barbara’s yard.”
About: What sets me apart is the care and attention I give to each dog like they’re part of my own family. I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and I truly see them as little babies who deserve the world. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I have two dogs of my own, so my day already revolves around walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love. In my home, your dog will be treated like one of the family. I provide a calm, clean, and cozy space where they can relax and feel safe. Whether they love playtime, snuggles, or just a quiet spot to nap, I adjust to their needs and routine. I stick to their usual feeding and potty schedule, offer daily walks, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention throughout the day.
About: I have extensive experience caring for animals because I truly love them. In my home country, the Dominican Republic, I cared for three Yorkshire dogs, a cat, four cockatoos, and a horse. I have also rescued abandoned animals, supported their recovery, and placed them in responsible adoptive homes. I am patient, reliable, and very attentive to each pet's individual needs. Pet care is my full-time job, so it is my main daily focus. I provide in-home care and am available throughout the day to offer constant attention, supervision, walks, timely feedings, playtime, and companionship. I carefully follow each pet's routine and individual needs to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and at home. When caring for pets in my home, I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. My home is a calm, clean, and pet-safe environment. I make sure to remove any potential hazards and keep doors and areas secure at all times. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions, including feeding, walks, medication, and specific routines. I provide constant supervision, loving attention, and a comfortable space where pets feel relaxed and at home.

“Candice is terrific! We can tell she loves dogs, is very experienced, careful and trustworthy. And our 8 month old pup loves her. Our dog is high energy yet is always tired out after walks with Candice, which is exactly what we need! I would highly recommend Canice to anyone looking for topnotch pet care.”
“Carolyn walks my dog weekly and has been fantastic! I'm at ease knowing Minnie is in her care while I'm at the office. Carolyn is quick to respond to my messages and always provides a complete rover card with a summary of their walk. I highly recommend her!”
“We are so grateful to have found Joseph. Our mini poodle is quite skittish around people other than family, and Joseph showed great patience and understanding with her, allowing her to get comfortable on her own timeline. Now when he arrives, our dog is thrilled to see him and comes home from walks happy and relaxed. We also appreciate Joseph's dependability and reliability; we trust him completely.”

About: Hi! I’m a huge dog lover, and I’ve been surrounded by dogs of all breeds my entire life and have years of experience walking and pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors. I have experience with basic training, patience, and positive reinforcement as well as being comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels, and I always prioritize their safety, happiness, and well-being. I am a very active person, so I’m not deterred if a dog has hyperactive needs! I work most weekdays, typically about 7 hours a day. My schedule often allows flexibility before or after shifts for morning or afternoon walks and check-ins. I do not work nights or weekends, and I’m also available for longer hikes or excursions on those days. I prioritize keeping a consistent routine making sure the transition is as smooth as possible; this includes ensuring feeding schedules, walk times and other specific care needs are met. I love enrichment through walks, play, and companionship so that your pet feels comfortable while their owner is away.
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Jacquelyn! She has gone above and beyond in caring for my elderly dog and cats, providing them with not just the essentials but genuine love and attention. From the very start, she has been incredibly kind, communicative, and dependable, always keeping me updated with messages and pictures that give me peace of mind. Caring for senior pets requires patience and extra effort, and Jacquelyn has shown both in abundance. Whether it’s taking extra time on walks, administering special care, or making sure my cats feel just as loved, she has exceeded all my expectations. It’s clear she truly cares about the well-being of the animals she looks after. I wholeheartedly recommend Jacquelyn.”
“Alexandra was responsive, flexible, and quick to respond whenever I reached out. I am so glad I found her on such short notice (less than 24 hours). Will definitely seek her services again.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, including Dobermans, Mini Aussies, and Maltese. I’ve trained puppies, supported seniors, and handled feeding, bathing, walking, playtime, and daily routines with confidence and love. I also have experience working in doggy daycare and grooming environments, where I safely managed dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and needs while ensuring they received attentive, compassionate care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I plan my day around the dogs I care for. Walks, check-ins, and feeding visits are scheduled consistently, allowing me to give each dog focused time and attention without rushing. Safety is always my first priority. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, use secure leashes and harnesses, and pay attention to a dog’s comfort level during walks or check-ins. In your home, I maintain a calm, clean environment and make sure your pet feels safe, understood, and cared for at all times.
“Finding someone trustworthy to check in on our senior dog, Siena, was important to us, and Lisa has exceeded our expectations. She’s always reliable, keeps us in the loop, and you can tell she genuinely cares about what she does. Siena enjoys her visits and is comfortable with Lisa, which gives us such peace of mind. We feel so fortunate to have found Lisa!”

About: Hi! I’m Jess, and if my friends had to describe me, they’d probably say I’m the human version of a golden retriever friendly, energetic, loyal, and always excited to make new friends (especially the furry kind!). While I haven’t owned a dog myself, I’ve spent years helping care for dogs belonging to family, friends, and many of my personal training clients. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a personal trainer and health coach, I’m very active, dependable, and attentive to details. I’ll treat your dog like family and make sure they get plenty of exercise, affection, and care while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I would be honored to be that person for your furry family member. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine right now. I currently have a flexible schedule and am looking to stay active and productive throughout the summer while doing something I genuinely enjoy. I love animals and see pet sitting and dog walking as an opportunity to help both pets and their owners. I know many people have vacations, family events, long workdays, and summer plans, and it can be stressful worrying about leaving a beloved pet behind. My goal is to provide loving, dependable care so pet parents can enjoy their time away with peace of mind, knowing their furry family member is getting plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and affection. As someone who is active, responsible, and caring, I enjoy spending time outdoors, going for walks, and giving pets the love and attention they deserve. I look forward to helping families this summer while building meaningful connections with both pets and their owners. 🐾💛 When caring for pets in my client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of exercise, and lots of love and attention throughout the day. Every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to build trust and make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. As a personal trainer and health coach, I lead an active lifestyle and love spending time outdoors, making me a great fit for dogs who enjoy walks and playtime. I also understand how important pets are to their families, so I treat every animal as if they were my own and provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. 🐾💛
“Walfredo has been tremendous! He is reliable, responsive and our dog loves him. Walfredo keeps us informed of everything and is communicative ahead of time if there are any changes. I highly recommend Walfredo to anyone looking for dog walking and pet sitting services.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my ability to adapt to each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with everything from energetic puppies who need consistent training and playtime, to senior dogs who require gentle care, medication, and patience. I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable—whether it’s a long walk, structured routines, or just extra cuddles. You can count on me to treat your pet like family while keeping communication open and consistent. Being in college means I’m away from my own dog, who I cared for every day. Pet sitting helps fill that gap—I get to give other pets the same love, attention, and consistency I gave my own. I plan my days around classes so I always have plenty of time for walks, play, and cuddles. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do on the side—it’s something I genuinely miss and enjoy, which makes every visit special. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it my priority to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. Whether that means regular walks, feeding on schedule, playtime, or administering medications, I follow your instructions closely so your pet feels safe and cared for. I’ve always been a dependable and trustworthy person—throughout high school I was an honor roll student and someone people could rely on. Now in college, I bring that same reliability and dedication to pet care, treating every pet like they’re my own.
“Tara has been great with my senior dog, Boss. She is very kind, gentle, and patient with him. That is something I really appreciate since his health isn’t great and needs the care. I would definitely recommend her for your doggy needs!”
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. I have dealt with kittens/puppies, adults and seniors. Gave meds, washed, groomed and trained them. Large dogs and pitbulls are my favorites. I also had a house rabbit for 9 years. My pets had long happy lives I have a part time job, so my schedule is flexible. With enough lead time, I can swap my shift and be available whenever I am needed. I can care for pets in their own home. The pets are happier and less stressed when they are at home. Pets should say home whenever possible.

“Our dog Laika had her first experience of being with a sitter for several days and we were fortunate to have met wonderful people in Natasha and Hamir. Their kindness and attentiveness are extraordinary and they ensured to make our dog as comfortable as possible giving her love and care which made her feel as if at home. Natasha and Hamir were communicating daily with brief recap of the day and Laika’s photos from her walk and during her cozy downtime. They were willing to accommodate any requests we had. Natasha and Hamir are one of a kind and we can only wholeheartedly recommend them as wonderful people and dog lovers. We surely found a place we can call a “home-way-from home” for our Laika in the future as well.”
“Great experience from beginning to end. It was our first time leaving Gigi with a sitter. Dew kept us updated and sent photos, which was a great comfort to us. Will definitely use her again.”
“Katharine is a kind person who has clearly demonstrated her love of dogs. Our 6 year old dachshund does not take to everyone as quickly as he did Katharine. We particularly appreciated her great communication throughout his 5 day stay with photos and wonderful stories. We will surely ask her again.”
“Cannot recommend Barbara enough for both overnight and doggy day care services!! great outdoor space at her home and located right near a phenomenal park where the dogs get to go on extra long walk with her. our dog always comes back happy, and tired from all the playing with her dog, Lou. Lincoln runs straight to her door when we got there for drop off and Barbara is super responsive + sends great pictures / videos the whole time we are away.”
“Arsenii takes great care of Bubba like always! We can rest assured that Bubba would have a great time when we are in vacation if he’s with Arsenii. He’s simply Bubba’s favorite :)”
“We loved our first Rover experience with Hayden and crew! Midge felt at home with them and was well cared for. She came home nice and tired from playing with Amos and Edgar all weekend (an added bonus for high-energy-pup parents)!”
“At Julia's house, Chipie feels like her second home. We were able to go on vacation calm knowing that the dog would be in good hands again. Thanks again for taking such good care of her.”
“Irene and her family did a wonderful job taking care of Nibbles! As soon as we drove up, Irene and her husband came to greet us and Nibbles felt comfortable with both of them immediately. She sent me pictures throughout the time he was there and I am so grateful that I found her!”
“Natacha was a God-sent. She watched out 7 month old Husky, Samon for 3 days. Natacha had a gorgeous Husky herself. She sent up pic and updates daily. We felt confident that Samson would be safe in Natacha's care, and he was. We will be using her again in the future to care for Samson. Could not have asked for a better sitter!”
“I went on a last-minute trip, and was having trouble finding a place for my dogs to stay at. I found Farva on rover and it was the best decision I ever made to have my dogs stay with her. She is amazing at taking care of your furry ones. I will definitely be going to her again for any of my future trips! Thank you so much, Farva!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience having Erika watch our dog, Gotham, for the week! She took amazing care of him and treated our furbaby like her own. Erika stayed in touch the entire time, sending pictures and updates that gave us such peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Gotham was happy, comfortable, and well-loved. We highly recommend Erika to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! 🐾❤️”
About: Looking for more than just a quick walk or a busy kennel? I provide personalized, one-on-one care tailored to your dog's personality, age, and energy level. Whether your dog enjoys a neighborhood walk, a wooded trail hike, a sniff walk, puzzle games, fetch, or simply relaxing with companionship, my goal is to make every visit enjoyable, enriching, and stress-free. I have over 14 years of hands-on experience with dogs, including supervising groups of up to 30 dogs in a professional dog daycare and caring for puppy groups under 4 months old. For more than five years, I also organized dog hikes throughout Westchester County, NY, and Fairfield County, CT, giving dogs a safe, structured, and fun way to exercise and explore. My experience is strongest with Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers, Doodles, Cavaliers, and other friendly companion breeds that thrive with individualized attention, exercise, enrichment, and companionship. While I welcome many different breeds, I always schedule a meet-and-greet first to make sure we're the right fit for each other. My own Golden Retriever, Kobi, was my best friend and adventure partner for over 12 years. Together we explored hiking trails, beaches, kayaking trips, road trips from Maine to Florida, and countless daily walks. He taught me that every dog is an individual with unique needs, and that is exactly how I care for every dog I meet. I believe many dogs are happier with personalized care than large-group environments. Over the years, I have learned to read canine body language, recognize stress signals, manage different personalities, and create a calm environment where dogs feel safe and comfortable. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, oral medications, and dogs that simply need extra patience and attention. My home has a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and is just a five-minute walk from beautiful wooded trails. I intentionally keep boarding and daycare small by accepting only one guest dog at a time, or two dogs from the same family, so every dog receives plenty of supervision, affection, exercise, and individual attention. I also have a playpen available for puppies and young dogs who benefit from structured rest time. My apartment is on the second floor, so dogs should be be comfortable using stairs. While living in England, I helped care for a Golden Retriever, and later in Spain, I cared for a Yorkshire Terrier. These experiences, together with years of owning dogs, leading dog hikes, and working professionally in dog daycare, have given me experience with many different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. My approach combines practical experience with a calm, patient mindset. I am certified in Reiki and Emotion Code energy work and believe dogs thrive when they feel safe, understood, and respected. While every visit focuses first on your dog's physical needs, I also pay close attention to their emotional well-being. Services I offer: • Dog walking • Adventure walks and hikes (up to 2 hours) • 30-60 minute drop-in visits • Puppy visits and enrichment activities • Limited home daycare • Limited boarding for approved dogs For everyone's safety and comfort, I require a meet-and-greet before accepting new clients. I look forward to meeting you and giving your dog the same love, attention, and care that I gave my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am self-employed as a bookkeeper and real estate agent, which allows me to work primarily from home and maintain a flexible schedule. While I occasionally leave the house for appointments, errands, or property showings, I am able to plan my schedule around the needs of the pets in my care. This flexibility allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, playtime, companionship, and close supervision for dogs staying in my home. I provide a safe, calm, and personalized environment with plenty of individual attention. My home has a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and I live just a 5-minute walk from wooded trails for walks and adventures. Dogs have access to a comfortable sofa, toys, and puzzle games for enrichment and mental stimulation. I live in a second-floor apartment, so dogs should be comfortable using stairs. I only accept 1 dogs at a time or 2 from the same family to ensure each dog receives plenty of supervision, exercise, and companionship.
“Vijaya treated my dog as her own, and was an excellent sitter. She gave my dog lots of exercise, attention, and love. She took care to follow all instructions, and sent daily updates. I felt my dog was in great hands. I highly recommend her!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog Pigeon overnight/extended period while I traveled and Pidgie was so happy and tuckered out when I picked him up! He seems like he had an excellent time, maybe even sad to leave his new friends! I had to book an additional extra night last minute due to international travel and they were so so accommodating, always quick to reply, and sent videos and updates along the way.”
“My husband and i are so happy that we found Andrea, she loved and cared for Bronson like her own, her home was so warm, free and welcoming to our dog. It was Bronson’s first time staying with a sitter and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Andrea took him to the park and walked him daily, she also updated me on a consistent basis providing peace for me while on vacation. Her son and bronson were very good buddies, I would definitely recommend her home for your pet.”
“Jessica was so amazing!! I felt so confident with my sweet girl Daisy being in her and her daughter’s hands. She got so much love and care. Jessica was so in tune with her needs and incredible at communicating with me. I could tell Daisy was so happy and comfortable. Highly recommend Jessica!”
