“I’m so happy I found Emily! My dog tends to be pretty high energy and which makes me a little nervous. Emily was awesome— she communicated with me and sent me photos through out Harlem’s stay. He was very calm and well taken care of. I will certainly be booking again!!”
“My trip was very last minute. Had to fly out that day and Grace & Wu took my fur baby cat in. They updated me daily with pictures and texts! My kitty is a very shy one but he slowly adjusted. He was in good hands and I was at ease! Will definitely book again ! 💜”
“Cooper has stayed with Nicole twice so far and the second time I bought him to her house, he ran inside. She seems to be very attentive and is incredibly responsive. We’ll definitely be staying here again! Thank you for the awesome experience for my dogs first boarding.”
“Shirley is the best! She is responsible, kind, and very communicative. We appreciated all the photos she shared and took comfort knowing that our puppy was in great hands with Shirley. You can tell that she is a true animal lover. Highly recommended!!”
“Absolutely happy thank you for everything!!! Tugger came home very happy… you were amazing! Thank you for the continuous updates and the quick replies, I loved all the pictures you sent it truly shows how much you love our pets and take such good care of them! Tugger will be back and i will also recommend my clients and friends and family to you. I am beyond grateful and appreciate you :-)”
“This is my 3rd time leaving Kuddle with them, this time for 2 weeks. They really looked after her very well and we would use them to look after her many more times.”
“My pug Charlie had another wonderful time with Abbie and Peachy. Charlie feels really safe with Abbie even though she is a little anxious and Peachy is a great friend that helps Charlie to stay active and socialized especially in this cold weather. Outstanding hosts!”
“Dan stays in touch with me every day to keep me updated on Flash's daily routine. Flash has a wonderful daily schedule, and they care for him with so much love. I am very grateful for their care and highly recommend them.”
“Qin En took good care of my cat Echo while I was out of town. She sent me multiple pictures/videos a day so I can enjoy my vacation while making sure my cat is doing well. She genuinely loves cats and actually any animals! 😂 highly recommend 😊”
“Ilona was fantastic. Leila was so tired from all the fun she had. Ilona sent lots of pictures and it was clear from all of them how well she took care of our dog.”
“I was looking for a sitter for my dog, Franky, and found Iliana on Rover. If you're looking for a sitter and considering hiring her, look no further and book right now! Her reviews speak for itself, but I will say that Franky did not want to leave her when we picked him up after his 3 night stay! She went above and beyond for Franky, sleeping with him at night, deshedding him, bathed him, took him out to the park. She never left his side, and is very caring to the animals that she watches and 'treats them like family' (her words), which is excellent. She texted us multiple pictures of Franky during his stay, which made us feel that much better, since we never leave Franky alone. That made a stressful time (for both us and Franky) that much more easier. We will definitely book her again.”
“Juliana was amazing with my pup Dora! This was the first time I had left her with a sitter, and Juliana took care to listen to / assuage all of my concerns beforehand, in addition to keeping me posted throughout the stay with updates and photos! Dora seems to have had a lovely time with her — I wholeheartedly recommend Juliana!”
“William and his family have been amazing. I received updates and pictures every day I was away from my pitty and will absolutely be sending her back in the future. Thanks again William!”
“Priyanka and her husband showed great care for Sage during his 4 day 3 night stay. They are stellar animal lovers and will be my go to whenever Sage has boarding needs.”
“Susan did amazing job watching manny!! She made sure he had many walks and snuggles. If you want to make sure your pup is in good hands, leave them with susan!”
“Angelique was a lifesaver. She took care of our sweet boy while we were away for the weekend. She was so attentive and communicative when he had unexpected stomach issues and made sure our boy was well taken care of. Truly appreciate her and could not recommend more highly!”
“I left my elderly Little Lady with Anny during a family emergency and she was able to help out on such short notice. Anny bought snacks for Reina and kept her fed and very happy :) Anny let me know everyday how happy and secure Reina was. I knew she was with an amazing and loving family for the weekend. They even left me with the most beautiful Valentines day basket afterwards with a custom blanket and printed photos! Literally could not have asked for a better situation ❤️😊”
“Kristin is amazing and so accommodating! I’m so appreciative of her for making my kitty feel so comfortable and loved while I was away. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a safe and loving home for their pets.”

“Hired Leona for the first time this weekend. She was a wonderful choice. She documented each visit thoroughly with pictures, messages and observations. Although there was a mishap and my cat lashed out, Leona handled the situation like a true professional. She was in communication with me with every visit. She understands pets and understands respect and boundaries. I would love to hire her again in the future, as long as she wants to watch my baby of course!!! Highly recommend Leona. Thank you again!!!”
“We had not gone on vacation in a long time because we were always worried about our senior cat. She is fussy, sensitive to change, particular about people, and very much the queen of the house—so leaving her was not something we took lightly. Then we found Anny through Rover, and from the very beginning she was warm, professional, receptive, and incredibly accommodating. She followed our feeding instructions perfectly, sent daily photos and videos, and gave us real peace of mind while we were halfway around the world. Before even the second day, our cat looked completely at home. Anny’s place is spotless, bright, sunny, climate-controlled, and clearly set up with care. In fact, Anny doted on our cat so much that she came home a little spoiled—and barely wanted to leave! We highly recommend Anny. Her care is thoughtful, safe, loving, and absolutely worth it. Thanks to her, we can finally travel again knowing our cat is in wonderful hands.”

About: I was born into a family of animal lovers and have spent my entire life surrounded by fur babies. Because I grew up in a home with more cats than dogs, I developed a deep, natural intuition for feline behavior. I understand that every cat is an individual.. some need high energy playtime, while others just want a quiet presence to feel safe. I am experienced in everything from the zoomies and deep-cleaning litter boxes to the gentle patience required for shy or senior cats. Whether it’s keeping them on their feeding schedule or providing the perfect chin scratches, I treat every cat like they are my own family.
“I can't recommend Hadley highly enough! It's a load off my mind to have someone reliable checking in on Mary Lou while I'm away. They're very professional and provides great daily updates. Thanks again Hadley!”

He runs with me a lot, and I care for my dog as well as my other pets very attentive, extremely nurturing (it’s a habit), and with so much play time.

She sent photos throughout the day and notes about our dog. Emily was great and we highly recommend her!!”

About: I have over a decade of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. As a current multi-pet owner with a mini poodle and a rescue cat, I am an expert at managing a happy, harmonious home and catering to different personality types. What sets my care apart is the activity level and location. I live just 20 feet from one park and a 5-minute walk from another, making outdoor time effortless. My schedule is built around your pet's needs: when I'm home, they get four walks a day, and even on my office days, they are guaranteed three solid walks with plenty of park time. My home is a true 'pet paradise'—fully stocked with a massive variety of dog and cat toys to suit any play style, from high-energy fetch to interactive puzzle games. I also treat your pets like my own by exclusively serving ZeroWater filtered water for premium hydration. I am highly observant, deeply responsible, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, active, and loved. My weekly routine is highly structured to guarantee your pet gets plenty of regular exercise and potty breaks. Since I work from home on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I am able to take dogs out for four walks a day (morning, lunch break, evening, and right before bed). On Mondays and Thursdays when I go into the office, I still ensure they get three solid walks (a long morning walk, an evening walk, and one right before sleep). I am always home for overnight boarding, and my weekends are fully open for even more playtime and park visits! Because I am a pet owner myself with a dog and a cat, my home is fully set up for animal safety. My environment is supervised, and I am particularly careful about keeping curious pets away from indoor plants or other hazards. I provide a calm, structured space where your pet can relax while I work from my home office. I also believe in total transparency and will send you frequent photo and video updates so you can see your pet enjoying their time, whether we're playing fetch at the park or lounging at home. To ensure every guest feels at home, I provide multiple dog beds in various sizes throughout the apartment. This allows each dog to have their own dedicated space to retreat to and relax, which is especially helpful for pups who might be a little timid at first!
“Julia was great! We left our puppy Sonny with her one afternoon until the afternoon the next day and she kept sending us updates and pictures of him having fun. This made us feel so good knowing that she was taking the best care of him and that he was happy. We would definitely recommend and use Julia again.”
“Athena was amazing and so reliable. I booked super last minute and she was extremely accommodating, fast responding, and kept me updated with pictures throughout Ozzy’s stay which gave me so much peace of mind. She even fed him homemade food and treats and truly cared for him like her own. I was completely at ease during my trip knowing Ozzy was in such good hands. I will 10000% be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring 🤍”
“The sitter was great. Even willing to groom my dog and trim her nails. The only mix up was the drop-off location which took me twenty minutes out of the way otherwise I'd give five stars.”
“Denys was absolutely exceptional. She took Luna in on a last minute request and was amazing. Luna came home happy and ready for bed each day. Denys did an amazing job, and I will be using her again for sure!”
“Yakie was really great with communicating and giving us updates throughout the day. We really appreciated all of the photos and it put us at ease knowing that Rocky was having a great time. Will definitely book Yakie again for future stays!”
About: I’ve cared for pets since childhood and currently work in a veterinary office with 3 years of hands-on experience. I provide reliable care for cats, dogs, and birds. Feel free to inquire! Pet care is a consistent part of my daily and weekly routine. I work at a veterinary office Monday through Saturday, which allows me to bring professional experience and a strong understanding of animal health into my care routine. I manage boarding, visits, and pet care around my work schedule to ensure each pet receives proper attention. Dog walking and drop-in visits are typically scheduled before and after office hours. Boarding pick-ups and drop-offs are flexible within reason on those days, and Sunday pick-up or drop-off is available upon inquiry. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure pets in my care receive reliable, attentive, and consistent care every day. I can also set up Vet visits within my office upon inquiry! In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and structured boarding environment tailored to each pet’s needs. For dogs, I have 3–4 spacious enclosures measuring approximately 5ft x 5ft with tall height, allowing plenty of room to move comfortably, rest, and feel secure. Dogs are let out regularly for exercise, potty breaks, and supervised interaction, depending on their temperament and owner preferences. For cats, I have separate, smaller enclosures in a variety of sizes to ensure they feel calm and stress-free. Cats are kept in a quiet area away from dogs, with clean litter boxes, fresh water, and enrichment as needed. I follow each pet owner’s care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs. Cleanliness, safety, and comfort are always a priority, and I monitor pets throughout the day to ensure they are happy and healthy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine and environment. I follow all provided care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box maintenance, medications, and any special needs. I ensure the home is kept tidy, pets are safe and comfortable, and I provide regular updates and photos so owners have peace of mind. Whether in my home or yours, cleanliness, safety, and attentive care are always my top priorities, and I monitor pets closely to ensure they are happy and healthy.

About: I have been caring for pets for many years. Over time, I’ve helped friends and family by walking their dogs, caring for their pets, and even housing them while they were away on vacation. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet like family and always make sure they get plenty of attention, care, and exercise. I’m available several days a week for walks, check-ins, and giving your pets extra care and attention while you’re busy. Whether your dog needs a quick walk or a longer outing, I’d love to help care for your lovely pets! I have a fenced large yard with plenty of space! Your dog can run around in the safety of the yard and have a blast !
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember! Growing up with many friends, family members, and neighbors that trusted me in caring for their dogs, I gained a lot of experience in interacting with dogs of any size and age. I have also done some volunteer work in shelters walking and checking-in on the animals (dogs and cats), including babysitting a newborn litter of puppies. I’m currently working part-time during the evenings and weekends in Manhattan for the summer, so I have most of my mornings free to play and get to know your pet during the week! In walking your pet and giving them their daily dose of exercise, I am easily adaptable to their personalities and needs! I am very gentle and patient with my pet at home and I am with every pet I’ve taken care of/will take care of. I can offer higher-energy dogs with more of a workout during our walk by adding in a jog or even taking them to a dog park their parent is comfortable with. I can also follow the pace of older/calmer/special-needs pups.
“Dean is great!! Super reliable, communicative and amazing with my dog Dior. I booked Dean superrr last minute this weekend and he responded immediately, kept me updated throughout the walks and I can’t wait to book him again”
About: Hi my name is Tabitha, every body calls me Tabi for short. I am a huge animal lover. I love all animals of all breeds and sizes. I grew up with animals my whole life. I've had hamsters, rabbits, dogs, cats, turtles, etc. Mostly cats and dogs. I am interested in animal caring because i want a puppy so bad, but will not be able to get one any time soon. My last dog Oreo, was a pit bull, and i had her for 13 years (her whole life). I live in an apartment and have a cat. I am home 80% of the time and i am always alone. The other 20% i am out running errands. I will like to enjoy the company of an energetic, playful, outgoing, silly and loving dog, cat, etc, who can make my day a bit brighter. I will love, cherish, and enjoy the company of your pet(s), as if they were my very own. Pet sitting is my primary focus, as I am home 80% of the day. My routine is very flexible, only stepping out briefly for quick errands, which means your fur baby will have constant companionship and supervision. Because I’m around so much, I can easily stick to your pet's specific feeding, potty, and play schedules without any interruptions. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. When I’m in a client's home, I maintain a calm and secure environment, ensuring all doors and gates are double-checked. Since I grew up in a family that always had more cats than dogs, I am an expert at reading body language to ensure pets feel safe and never overstimulated. I provide frequent updates and photos so you can have total peace of mind while you're away.

“Hemei has been great with my dog Kiara! She walks her a 3-4 times a week and is very responsive, professional, and communicative. She is very flexible with her schedule which is amazing since my week to week work schedule sometime varies. Hemei made the extra trek for a meet and greet before starting so that I could rest assured that my dog would be comfortable with her. She is reliable and a true dog lover and you know she will look after your fur baby as her own. Highly recommend her!”
“Deshauna walked and gave meds for our Yorkie, Champy. Deshauna accommodated our request for a meet-and-greet prior to walking him for the first time, which was important to explain the medication. During the walk, she arrived on time and was attentive to Champy's needs, and gave medication. Sent pictures and updates. I highly recommend!”
About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals, and they tend to trust me quickly. I’ve cared for many different pets over the years, including dogs, small animals, and birds. I successfully home-trained my rabbit and hand-trained and hand-tamed four parakeets, helping them feel comfortable and bonded with me within their first week at home. I’m very patient, calm, and attentive, which helps pets feel safe and relaxed in my care. I make sure all pets are fed on time, well cared for, and given plenty of love and attention. I also have experience caring for my godsister’s and cousins’ dogs, including a beagle and a dachshund. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I truly believe every pet deserves kindness, consistency, and genuine care. I have a rabbit named miffy, a parakeet named Beaky. I feed and water them everyday as well as charge the litter box of my rabbit as I trained him to learn to do his business in his litterbox. I also help my disabled neighbor walk their dog whenever nobody is home I always prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets in my home or a client’s (or neighbors) home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I take time to build trust with every pet, allowing them to adjust at their own pace. I keep environments clean, calm, and secure, and I make sure pets are supervised, well-cared-for, and given plenty of attention and affection at all times.

About: I’ve had my dog for 6 years now. Since getting her I have taken care of her by feeding her, taking her on walks, spending time with her in general, and being the sole care taker when my family is away. I also worked at a pet supplies store for 9 months, only leaving to go to college. There I learned about what dogs and cats need in general as well as got experience interacting with the many different types of dogs when they entered the store. There I met a dog, Neo, who I got to know when I became there dog walker. It gave me experience in walking a dog and getting to know a dog that wasn’t my own. I’m excited at the prospect of working for you and your dog or cat. Animals are truly some of the best things the world has to offer and I promise to do my absolute best to take care of them! I will be at home for all of winter break, and my true passion of being an actress means that much of my work is self tape auditioning. Therefore, I will have a lot of free time during the week and weekend! The most important part is making sure the dog is safe, for me this means making sure the dog doesn’t have access to anything that could be harmful, as well as when taking the dog on walks having the harness fully on in the correct manner and being on the lookout for other dogs/cars/and anything else that could potentially cause danger. That being said it is also important that I care for the dog by spending time with them, giving them treats(based on the owner’s preference), and petting them.
About: I've taken care of dogs, guinea pigs, and fish. I myself have a seven year old bichon who I take care of. I can take your fur babies on walks, a personal pet picnic, or even take them to a pet park so they can socialize with other pets. I am currently a full time teacher. So I am available after 2:30 and full time on weekends. To schedule care time, please give me two weeks notice. Thank you! I can take care of your dog in your own home. Of course, safety comes first, please leave me notes so that I will be aware of it.
About: I’m patient with shy, anxious, high-energy, or senior pets, and I pay close attention to routines, behavior changes, and individual personalities. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented, so owners can trust that instructions will be followed carefully and their pets will get thoughtful, attentive care rather than just a quick check-in. I’m a freelancer and student, Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m organized, reliable, and good at maintaining consistent feeding, play, medication, and check-in schedules. I also like quieter routines, so spending time caring for cats feels calming and grounding rather than stressful or rushed. I care for pets with a lot of attention, patience, and respect for their routines and boundaries. In a client’s home, I make sure food, water, litter, medications, and general cleanliness are handled carefully while also giving the cat affection, enrichment, or space depending on their personality. I pay close attention to behavior changes and prioritize creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. Always happy to send updates and tidy up!

Eric has a relaxed and confident demeanor that worked well with our dog, and also sent us lots of pictures and informative updates (what they were doing, how Yoshi's health was regarding a recent upset stomach he was recovering from). He's also a walker so I wasn't worried about Yoshi getting enough exercise. We look forward to booking Eric again!”

“Yusuf was amazing with Tonka! He sent us multiple daily updates and was always quick to communicate with us or to clarify if he had questions. He has a backyard which he allows the dogs to run around in and was looking after multiple dogs, so tonka had the time of his life playing. Above all Yusuf clearly cares about the dogs he is taking care of and Tonka has never been so comfortable staying in a new place. We wouldn't hesitate to ask Yusuf again!”
