“Irene took great care of my older dog for the long weekend. I got video and photo updates and she was very kind taking care of my dog that needs medication and more care.”
“Freddy loves Arianne and family and we LOVE that they provide such good care and attention to him in our absence. We already rebooked because there is no one we feel more comfortable with taking care of our pup!”

“First time leaving Toby with anyone. Must say we love Laurie, she keep instantly updating us with pictures. We felt secure at all time. If we ever need to leave our puppy Toby again definitely will be with Laurie. She is very loving and caring. Thank you Laurie!”

“Judy was fantastic, very responsive and wonderful with our Violet. Would give her more stars if we could and will def call on her again for future travel.”

“Rich was incredibly kind and took great care of our pups. Booking was easy & everything went very well. Our dogs loved his property (lots of outdoor space!) and it was nice for them to get used to being around other dogs. Rich sent us photos of our dogs throughout their stay with him. They looked happy & content. Great experience 😊”

“Dew is the best of the best! From our first meet & greet to everything in between, Dew was responsive, flexible, and loved our pup as if he was her own. Our Bucky is quite the energetic pup and she went above and beyond to assure he was taken care of in just the right way. We can’t thank her more and will be booking with her again soon.”


“Elvia is the best! Our dachshund loves her and so do we. Super reliable and takes such good care of our pup. We’ve used Elvia for both daytime and overnights and would highly recommend!”

“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.”

“Karine was absolutely wonderful. We could tell our pup was expertly cared for during our time away. He had an amazing time with Karine, her husband and the other dogs. She was very consistent with updates, and made us feel at ease during the whole stay. We would recommend her to anyone 1000%”


“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!”

“Saori has been so patient and caring with our Pomsky puppy. Since we work from home, I was concerned he wasn’t socializing enough and of course he has lots of energy. Daycare with Saori will be a big help in our journey together. We got really lucky finding her right from the start.”

“Hayden and Colin were so amazing when we needed someone last minute to watch our dog Mitch for a whole month. They treated him like one of their own dogs and sent us so many pictures every day of all their cuddles and play time. It was such a relief to have someone we could trust while we were away. They helped give his medication and manage his upset stomach. Mitch is already missing his dog friends and can’t wait to come visit again.”

“I left my mini Australian shepherd for a long weekend with Lucienne. She was incredibly flexible with pickup and drop off times. We did a meet and greet before hand where it was clear she was going to give my dog a great weekend. She sent photo updates during the weekend”

“Rosemarie is so sweet, and warm, and clearly takes watching dogs seriously. She was careful to get to know Ollie's habits and routines. She sent lots of pictures of Ollie having fun and relaxing with her family. I would have no hesitation to have Rosmarie watch Ollie again. She is wonderful!!”

“First time boarding with Randi and it was an incredibly smooth experience. Randi is extremely flexible and was a life saver for when we were away on a multi city driving trip. We were watching the weather in case we needed to abandon our plans and come back home mid trip. Randi was extremely flexible and accommodating and I am so grateful for that. Our dog is a picky eater and is also on some tricky meds…and Randi kept in touch with regular updates. She persevered with attempts to get her to eat both food and meds, until our dog did finally start to eat! Our dog came home happy and healthy! We will definitely board with Randi again!”

“Lily took wonderful care of my dog Pippa! It was my first time working with her and I will definitely use her again. Pippa is a very playful dog and Lily kept her entertained and engaged the whole time. I think Pippa was very bummed to come back home and leave her new friends. Thanks Lily!!”

“You can tell Laurie is an animal lover, which put me at ease when having her take care of my cat after a move to a new area. Communication before, after, and during each visit was great! I felt reassured that my baby girl was being looked after well.”


“Becky cat-sitted for us over thanksgiving. She learned our two cats’ routines quickly, was attentive to their needs, and was very communicative! Already great to come home to happy cats!”

“Dee is a wonderful sitter for my kitty! She lets me know key details of how the visits go, and is patient with my girl who may or may not be in a social mood. Dee is also very flexible with last minute bookings and her care is much appreciated!”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life! My family dog of 12 years passed away last year, but she definitely taught me a lot. I have experience with dogs of all ages, even senior dogs! I am a recent college graduate (Bucknell University Class of 2024!) taking a gap year before pursuing a master's degree. This means my schedule for the time being is incredibly flexible, and I can help accommodate to your scheduling needs! I happily follow all instructions left for your pet care, and am happy to send consistent updates about your pets well-being! Whatever makes you most comfortable in your home!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages, including senior cats with more complex medical needs. I’ve regularly handled nightly medication routines, including giving pills, administering oral medications with syringes, hiding medication in food when needed, applying ear creams, and even giving insulin injections. I understand how important patience and a calm approach are, especially with cats who may be nervous or not feeling their best. I always prioritize their comfort while making sure medications are given safely and correctly. In addition to medical care, I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, and recognizing changes in behavior or health. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or requires extra care, I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after while you’re away.

“Andrea is incredibly attentive and always puts me at ease while I'm away! She sends adorable pictures of my kitty, sends updates every day and I can tell when I get home that she's been treated like a queen. So grateful to have someone I can trust looking after my home and my girl!”

“Maria was amazing! I was hesitant to leave my 2 kittens for 2 days and needed them fed a few times a day....Maria was excellent! She was so caring and attentive with them. The communication and pictures were amazing.... can't wait to use her services again”

“Mia is lovely and personable. She has much experience with cats, dogs, raising chickens, etc.! She dropped in to feed and play with our cat, Seamus. He was relaxed when we returned home from our trip. Mia left Seamus's accoutrement clean and very organized! We've already booked her for another drop-in week this summer. :)”

About: I have been taking care of my neighbors' pets ever since I was a kid, and even had my own business card for dog walking/pet sitting when I was in middle school! I understand that our pets are also our babies and they require love, support, and structure. I have experience with senior dogs that require medication as well as working with puppies! I am a graduate student working part-time at a restaurant this summer. I'd be happy to discuss what works best for your pet's schedule and their needs! While I unfortunately cannot host your furbabies in my apartment due to the leasing rules, I am happy to travel to your home and will stay there to keep your animal company!

“From the moment we met Diana my dog and kitten both responded to her with no hesitation- my dog loved her from first meeting. Our trip was extended and she was flexible with all the back and forth changes . Which we really appreciate and was reassuring! Not only did she add on last minute service, she also was ready to adjust payment ( credit) for scheduling changes . I am thankful to have found her, and will happily ask for continued help with Diana!”


About: Over thirty years of cat companionship, and not a single one of my cats arrived by my own design. The Cat Distribution System has excellent taste. My current household includes two cats: Gretchen and Ice. Gretchen came to me as a tiny feral kitten I pulled from under an abandoned car. She went on to live a full and varied life — including a stint as a working mouser on a goat farm — and has now retired into a life of quiet domesticity, which she has fully earned. Ice is a chonker with tummy trouble who would simply rather not. We love him against his wishes. I can handle all the usual care — feeding, litter boxes, playtime, cuddles if your cat is into that. I'm also comfortable giving pills and injections, which not everyone can say. And after three decades of cat companionship, I know cat behavior well enough to tell the difference between a cat just being a cat and a cat who actually needs a vet. That distinction matters, and I won't miss it. Your cat will be in good hands. Even if they pretend not to care.

“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!”

“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!”

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.
“Very lucky to have found Laurie on here. She took excellent care of my 9 month old puppy Bella. I really appreciated the frequent photos and updates, they helped me feel at ease and confident that my pup was in great hands!”


“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!”
“Anner came through for me! If it wasn’t for him I’d have to call out of work. I had a change of schedule which messed up my puppy’s schedule. I downloaded this app with hopes of someone responding back to me quickly and Anner did just that. Everything was so professionally done. Top tier communication. I was able to receive photos and videos during the day. I was so happy. Book Anner you won’t be disappointed”

About: I have taken care of dogs and various other pets my whole adult life. I believe trust is the most important thing when it comes to leaving your pets with a sitter and I can assure you I will treat your pets like I would my own, with love and respect. Your dog will be staying in a family style boarding situation, where they get the love and attention from myself, my husband and our 2 children (7 and 10) who adore helping out with all the pups. We have a large fenced in back yard for lots of supervised running, playing and sniffing! I am trained in obedience training and can provide puppy socialization. Please reach out to me with any questions or to schedule a meeting! Boarding is always available. I am available weekdays after 8:30 am - 3:30 pm for walks, drop ins, puppy socialization or obedience training. I am fully available on the weekends for boarding, walking, drop-ins, puppy socialization and obedience training. I have 3 extremely friendly small dogs for your fur baby to play with or relax with. I strive to make the dogs that stay here comfortable and as stress free as possible.
“Weina was flexible with our drop off/pick up time for Finnegan which was much appreciated! She took our sweet pup out on three long walks over a 7+ hour period plus additional short potty and water breaks. She sent updates and photos throughout the stay. Quick to respond to our request and any additional outreach!”

“Judy was so kind, detail oriented, and trustworthy with my senior chihuahua. I left Milly with Judy for the day while I attended a conference. Judy provided routine photos and updates. I could tell Milly was clearly well taken care of when I picked her up - no anxiety”

About: I’m a mom of two, and I have two Maltese of my own, so I know how much our pets mean to us. I genuinely love dogs and enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s going for walks, playing, or just giving them lots of attention and cuddles. I’ll care for your dog like they’re part of my own family, and I’ll make sure you get plenty of updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away. I work from home full-time and have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run, play, and enjoy the outdoors. I love spending time outside with them, whether we’re playing in the yard or taking a relaxing stroll around the neighborhood. Because I work from home, I also offer flexible drop-in visits and dog walks before work, during my lunch break, or after my workday. Whether your pup needs a potty break, some exercise, playtime, or a little extra love while you’re away, I’m happy to help! I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, and I can crate your dog if needed. Since I work from home full-time, your dog will never be left alone for long and will receive lots of attention and care throughout the day. I also offer drop-in visits and dog walks before work, during my lunch break, and after work to fit your schedule.
“Gwynne is amazing! We just started using her a few weeks ago and every time my dog Lola goes to stay at Gwynne’s she is excited and has a great time. I definitely recommend Gwynne, she’s the only dog sitter we use ☺️”

“Rachel was amazing with our deaf pup, Hazel! She was so communicative and made us feel comfortable. Hazel had a wonderful time at daycare! Would recommend Rachel to everyone!”

“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: I’ve grown up helping care for my family dog, Cannoli, for the past 10 years, so I’m very familiar with daily pet care routines like feeding, walking, and playtime. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. My schedule is flexible and allows me to dedicate time to pet care. I’m available most mornings and afternoons, as well as some evenings and weekends. I’m happy to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. I carefully follow each pet’s routine including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific instructions.
“Christine is fantastic! I needed someone to walk my dog Buddy at the last minute. Christine was able come over for a meet and great right away and book our walk. She definitely helped me out in a pinch and was wonderful!”


“Kerry is a gem!! My senior dog needs lots of TLC and patience (he's lost most of his vision and hearing, has trouble with stairs and occasionally gets confused), so I was nervous about bringing in someone to walk him. Kerry immediately put my fears to rest -- asked all the right questions, was wonderful with my dog, and communicated well and often during the visit. I won't hesitate to have him visit again and am relieved I found him.”

“John (Cotter) was very communicative and wonderful with our dogs! Our pups are a very energetic (crazy) pair - they loved Cotter. Thank you for taking great care of them!”

About: I have had years of experience with other peoples pets, and primarily my own. I have taken care of my own Dogs, cats, snakes, hamsters, horses, and fish over the years. I’ve grown up with puppies, and currently have my own 2 kittens, and also have had elderly dogs, cats, and horses before. I have always adored animals, and have always been an important part in my life so I would love to make more furry friends with your pets:) I currently am enrolled in school at The University of New Hampshire. My schedule is super open this semester since I took summer classes so my work load would be easier. In home care : I would make sure to send client photos if l was boarding their pet at my apartment, and make sure I follow the exact instructions given. When other people watch my pets , there’s always the anxiety of making sure they are treated well, and taken care of. Clients home: if I took care of the clients pets, I would make sure that I followed all the rules given and more. I understand it can be uncomfortable for a stranger to be in your house, so trust and reassurance everything is safe it’s important as a pet and home owner
About: I have had experience with dogs of all breeds since I was 16 years old when I worked as a kennel tech! I was also a volunteer at the Human Society and mostly worked in the cat room - spending time and cuddles and cleaning their living area. I know that the care of your pet is the most important thing to feel secure about when going on vacation or out of town. In addition to years of care sitting for both cats and dogs, I volunteered in South Africa and cared for baby baboons! I know your pet is unique and I will follow all instructions given to ensure your peace of mind, your pet’s safety, and will send pictures daily! I transitioned from the corporate world to and now do this full time, so I am flexible and available at all times to keep your pet’s schedule on track! I care and respect your home just as much as I love animals. If I am in your home, I will follow all instructions as given and am happy to send as many pictures as you request during my stay. This is my full time job so making sure your pets stay on schedule is my priority! It can be overwhelming when owners leave, so maintaining their routines helps ease everyone’s anxiety! I respect your home as if it were my own! I ensure to keep areas clean and respect all areas of the house! I am also happy to do light tasks such as watering plants and brining in your mail. :)
“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: Our pets are a very special part of our families. They each have their own quirks and personalities, and they all bring so much love and joy to our lives. I will meet your pet’s needs, and spend time with them in the way they like the most. I have been a dog walker and pet care provider for 17 years now, and I still love my job! Each pet that I meet makes me smile. I like to think that I am able to give some of the happiness these animals bring to me, back to them. Over my 17 years of being a pet care provider, I have had experience with dogs of all different breeds, sizes and ages -from puppies to seniors. I am fully insured. I am willing to work with your pup on basic training, or put them in my car, for a short drive to a favorite walking area. If you need me to feed your dog or cat, please let me know. I can also spend time playing or cuddling with your dog or cat. When I am not enjoying the company of pets, I am drawing or painting pet portraits for commissions. I look forward to meeting your special pet. I will give them the activity, affection, and attention that is right for them. I am dependable, professional and most of all, caring. You can count on me to take good care of your pet, and you can feel confident, knowing that your pet is in exceptional hands, when you are not able to take care of them yourself. I have been walking dogs and taking care of pets during the day for 17 years now, and I spend my evenings drawing and painting pets for commissions as a pet portrait artist. It’s all about the animals with me! I would love to come to your home and walk your dog in your neighborhood, or perhaps drive them to a close by favorite walking area. Some dogs have invisible fence collars, and need to be driven off the property, or they live on busy streets, that are not safe streets to walk on. I can drive them to a quiet side street or a park, if you prefer. You can request a feeding, if you would like, and I could do a quick scan of the house for any unexpected accidents, and clean them up for you. I can do drop-in visit (15 minutes), or a full 30 minute walk or play in the yard. More time can be requested, if necessary. For cat care, I can clean the litter boxes, feed your cat/refresh their water, and play or cuddle with them. I can also take a quick scan of the house for messes for them also.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 11 (various animals, and breeds)! I’ve grown up with dogs and I’ve always had multiple in my home. I have experience taking care of guinea pigs, cats, dogs, fish, but specifically puppies, and senior dogs. I am a college student that’s working part-time over the summer. However, my day-to-day schedule is extremely flexible and I am at home for a majority of my workday. I have a large backyard that is fenced in, and a very mellow old lab who can either keep your pet company or be crated if needed!
“Brandon was wonderful with Poppy, he is calm and gentle with lots of knowledge about dog behavior. Poppy was so happy on their walk and wanted to leave with him when he left. lol I highly recommend him.”

We have already booked another stay with Sara. Thank you Sara!!!”
