“Ryan watched both our dogs for a couple of days while we were gone. Initially it was only supposed to be one but we had some plans change and had a last minute request which he kindly accommodated. He kept us updated everyday while watching the boys. One of them got an upset stomach which he helped tend to. Thank you for taking good care of the boys!”
“My dog had a great weekend with Adam and his dog Hermes! Adam took them out on walks/ dog park multiple times daily, and provided plenty of updates and pics. He even let my dog sleep on the bed! Highly recommend Adam, especially for small dogs!”
“Angelique was absolutely lovely! She was extremely communicative and her love for dogs is apparent! Charlie was very well take care of during his stay. She made sure to stay in contact and provide updates. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Sabrina was amazing with magnolia! I’ve had unfavorable Rover experiences in the past so planned ahead and did a meet and greet. I could tell instantly how warm and genuine she is- she even read up on the notes before that meeting. I felt super comfortable heading into our weekend away. During the weekend she gave several updates and was generous with photos/ videos all descriptive of magnolias characteristics. I knew Magnolia loved her stay with Sabrina when I picked her up and she kept looking back for her to walk away with us! I will absolutely book with her again whenever she’s free!”
“Eva was kind, flexible, and communicative. She clearly loves dogs and took good care of Wallace. But appreciated her accommodating my schedule around the busy holidays.”
“Euitae was great with my puppy! Communicated with me well throughout the time, sent photos and videos. I felt comfortable leaving her with a new boarder and would work with Euitae again!”
“Mykala and her partner took great care of my dog Tails! It was a fairly last minute request for multiple days of boarding so I was very relieved to find good caregivers for him. They provided lots of updates and Tails enjoyed spending time with their dog Boots. I would book again!”
“Luis and Ana were delightful people who took great care of my elderly basset hound, and for 8 days no less! Highly recommended and would book with them again.”
“Lal, Matt & Hank were great! My doggy boys stayed with them for a week while we were travelling out of state and they looked like they were having a nice little doggy vacation themselves with their new found friends. Lal would keep us updated with how our boys were doing by also posting pictures and videos along with the texts and e-mails. Lal really took the time to get to know the boys well specially during their meet and greet. Plus the fact that their LabraDoodle, Hank got along very well with the boys made me really feel at ease. I would definitely pick them again for our upcoming travels. So happy to know that my doggy boys were in good hands while we were away. Highly recommended.”
“Thanks Bridget! Emma had a blast staying with you and Porsha! Really appreciated the nice photos and also the nice things you said about her 🥹. She came home happy, and I felt like she was in great hands. Thanks again!”
“Roman is a spectacular sitter, you couldn’t ask for better! Very communicative and responsive, took great photos and sent lovely updates. My pup had a wonderful time with him and I’d definitely board with him again!”
“Michael was awesome with T and great with communicating with me. Even meeting up at dog park before the reservation to make sure T was good for him and his space. Moreover, immensely accommodating amongst some travel issues. Highly reccomned”
“Iliana is caring, kind, and responsive. She's very accommodating with scheduling and logistics before boarding (doesn't mean you could abuse her kindness!). Main reason I chose her is that she has abundant experience taking care of dogs with separation anxiety and stays at home a lot of time. I'm so glad that my anxy baby could enjoy the company of her family and Iliana’s friendly puppy. My dog is a massive attention seeker and Iliana knows how to handle it well. Her puppy is also very well-behaved and could be separated by fence if your dog doesn't like hanging out with other doggies. Drop off and pick up were super smooth and she was quick with text responses all the time. Would highly recommend!”
“Sherry and Walter looked after our little puppy Figo for a night, and were fantastic sitters! They played with him, made him feel very comfortable with lots of snuggles, took him on a lovely walk and sent us lots of updates throughout. We’d recommend them highly!”
“Merin was AMAZING!! I really felt Moose was being well taken care of and left me with such peace of mind while on vacation. She was super thorough, gave constant updates, and reached out with any questions/concerns. Hands down we found our go to sitter which is the best feeling knowing I have someone to trust to take care of Moose when I need a little R&R! Thank you!!”
“Bailey went above and beyond! She sent updates with pictures and took care of my dog so well! I highly recommend Bailey to anyone looking for pet care.”
“Tiffany is so wonderful. She was so kind and sent us updates about our dog. We just moved to NYC and our dog has separation anxiety. She is the perfect companion for our pup Leche when we have to be away from home for long periods of time. So glad we found Tiffany.”
“Onelsis is a life saver. I had emergency surgery, and she took great care of my dog at the last minute. She was great about letting me extend my dog’s stay. She continued to give me updates, and I could tell my dog enjoyed being around her during drop off. I will be using her services again!”
“Michael watched our dog June for one night in preparation for a longer stay and was very communicative and helpful! We’re looking forward to having June stay with him again.”

“Morgan did a wonderful job watching our little kitty. She was careful to ask what we desired her to do, and she sent cute photos and great check-in notes. We’ll absolutely be booking with her another time. We highly recommend her!”
“Birger was SO amazing with Rose and so attentive and responsive. He took such amazing care of her and she was in the best mood when I got home. It's clear she got lots of cuddles and scritches as she was in such a sweet and happy mood when I got home. Birger provided me amazing updates and lots of cute pictures to tide me over while I was gone. Thank you, Birger!!”
“Martina was very easy work with - she responded quickly, asked all the right questions about food, litter, water, and vets, and sent us daily photo updates from each drop-in. We were worried about how our cat would fare while we were away for the holidays, and Martina definitely helped us enjoy our trip knowing that Mari had someone checking in on her.”
“This was our first time using Rover and also leaving our cat with someone new since she was a kitten. Eileen was super, very quick & clear correspondence, friendly, reliable, and our cat was immediately very comfortable with her. This was even further evidenced in the photos while we were away. We will definitely call Eileen for our next trip.”
“Outstanding cat sitter. During a long trip I was on, Ryan sent me photos, videos, and reports that made me feel reassured that my cat was okay and warmed my heart. He played with him and took care of everything on the list. Highly recommend.”
“Thank goodness for Rosanna! This was my first time hiring a cat sitter via rover who I didn’t personally know prior to hiring and she went above and beyond! My usually anxious cat was so comfortable with her! She made sure to check in with me at each visit and i cannot overstate how grateful I am for that. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Tatyana is fantastic. I highly recommend her to anyone. She is always a pleasure to work with and it is always such a great experience. Thank you for taking such great care of my cats!”
“Audrey was amazing! She was so kind to our pup, took great care of him, and was highly communicative with us. You can tell that Audrey loves dogs and it shows in her level of care!”
“I had many good cat sitters that I left good review for, but Kaila deserves 7 stars! She took greatest care of my cat Augustine during a 2 week travel. She was so reliable, gave his medication and sent so many pictures ans check ins that I never had to worry. Most importantly Augustine, who is shy and takes time to warm up, loved her. He got all the brushing and cuddles he asked for. Thank you for making my trip such a breeze for me. You are anxious-cat-parent approved.”
“Yarden was so lovely! Kept our kitties loved and attended to while my boyfriend and I were away for the weekend. She was prompt and kept me informed of my boy cat who was having some digestive issues. Highly recommend!”
“Angelique was very affectionate and took excellent care of our cat Homer while we were out of town. He is usually very shy but she was able to make him feel loved and play with him.”
“Arianna was amazing with my cat! She arrived right on time and I appreciated all the photos and videos she sent while I was away. Will definitely use her again!”
“Mackenzie is a star! She kept my crazy kitten company for a week while I was away. She notified me of any issues (like my kitten tearing apart the toilet paper and pouncing at the tv) and sent me some adorable pictures. I came home to a happy kitten and a clean apartment. I’ll definitely be using Mackenzie again!”
“Monique was so compassionate and hooked a sit up for me last minute. She took great care of my cat and is such a lovely person, cannot recommend her enough.”
“Leta kindly took care of my cat on very short notice. They’d met once before, a while back. Of course, all went very well. It was easy to communicate with Leta in real-time and specify or tweak certain details. Highly recommended.”
“Claire is a fabulous cat sitter! Not only did she manage to coax our shy kitty, Ziggy, out of hiding, but she was also expert at pilling our other kitty, Ollie. Claire is loving and attentive to the moods of both cats and her daily report cards with sweet pictures are a delight to read. In addition, Claire was "on the ball" with letting us know when our apartment fire alarm battery started beeping. Thanks to her, we were able to get the issue taken care of immediately. We feel confident leaving our two Toybob kitties in Claire's care when we need to be away. Thank you, Claire!”

“Basil seemed to have the time of his life with Wei Han & her pup! Loved seeing photo updates throughout the day, would definitely love to rebook in the future :)”

We knew Winnie was in great hands—Tracy sent adorable pictures of her playing with Nookie, and when we picked her up she was so happy and tired! Overall we had a great first experience using Rover and would highly recommend Tracy in a heartbeat!”
About: Hi! We are Keith and Harley. We are an engaged couple living in NYC with a 7 year old labrador retriever. We are trying to make extra money for our wedding and we LOVE dogs. Our dog does well with others, doesn't bark and isn't aggressive. As a couple we have two sets of hands and availability to help watch your dog! We are WFH and live right next to a dog park so we can offer a lots of time outside and stimulation for your dog! If your dog does better on solo walks, we can do that too. We live in a quiet elevator building next to a dog park. We have space for any size dog to feel comfortable. Our dog is 7, very low key, but mobile like a puppy.
About: I’ve taken care of my family dog since I was 10. I’ve also watched family friends and relatives animals for them when they are away on vacation! I’m currently working hybrid so I can be home most days if needed when boarding an animal! I will enjoy being able to get out of my apartment every few hours to take the dog for long walks! I live in an apartment with a roommate and we always keep the door locked when we are in and out of the home. My roommate has a standard poodle who is super mellow and great with other dogs!
“Alyssa was perfect. Clear and consistent communication all throughout while watching my 2 dogs. She sent pictures and videos and consistently gave me reassurance that everything was going well and that my boys were happy. I would give ten starts if I could.”
“Sierra is so amazing with Stout! She is like a second mama to my fur baby and I trust her with him completely! He loves her so much and is always so happy to see her!”
“Ana and Luis took wonderful care of my puppy. They accommodated all of his needs and he was always excited to see them every day. They also sent updates and pictures throughout the day. I would definitely recommend and book them again!”
“I was on the search to find a pet sitter that would understand my specific circumstances. I have a rescue pup who has been through a lot, and is still acclimating to my space, and needs someone calm, and kind. I saw Priscilla had experience with rescues and messaged right away. She was so patient and accommodating around the day-sitting request. When she showed up, she was grounded and calm, and knew how to walk into the space without getting my pup more excited. I was also quite nervous, and she was patient with me as I bumbled through all the things I wanted her to know ? I was able to leave knowing my baby was in good hand. 10/10 would recommend and will rebook in the future! Fluffy and I say thank you, Priscilla!?”
“Robin was amazing with Buddy. As expected, Buddy had a hard time when I left him, but Robin made him feel at home and he eventually settled in so well and had such a good time throughout the day. The way his faced changed from a photo Robin sent at the beginning of the day compared to the end showed just how well he adjusted and how happy he was with Robin. Robin is so patient and took great care even on such a rainy day when they couldn’t spend too much time outside. She sent plenty of photos, videos, and updates and I knew Buddy was in good hands. Highly recommend and would give more than 5 stars if I could. Will definitely have Buddy stay with Robin again!”
“Stella had a great day with you, thank you! She's completely tuckered out :) Eleanor was great at communicating too. We couldn't be happier. Will definitely go with Eleanor again!”
“Haziza was wonderful! I had to take a last minute trip into the city and traveling with my pet (Scout) was tough. I made the request last minute and Haziza responded immediately! I was nervous as I have never used a Rover in the city, but Haziza has us meet and immediately I felt at ease! She went above and beyond for sending me photos and videos of Scout at the park and even enjoying her family time in the comfort of Hazizas home! I will 100% book with her again any time I am in the city! Cannot give her a high enough review!”
“Lee is an awesome sitter who we have used a couple times now. Our dog is super nervous and the first time our dog spent most of the day visibly nervous. But Lee was not deterred and very patient, gave our dog space and tried multiple approaches to get in her good graces. The second visit our dog warmed up to Lee and was taking pets and giving her kisses by the end of the day. Lee is incredibly communicative and gifted with dogs, we are very grateful for her patience and sticking with it. We look forward to using her (and her family) again.”
“Sonia took great care of my dog and made sure she had everything she needed! She also sent several pictures and videos during her stay which was amazing!”
“Mara was so great with my puppy, Winston! She was super helpful with his training and kept me updated. I highly recommend her and hope she can come see Winston again soon”
“Anna was attentive to Rosco and very accommodating of my difficult work schedule. She took Rosco on outings to different parks and cuddled with him on the couch. He came home to me a happy man! Thanks again Anna!”

“Wei Han was very responsible and efficient. She was almost always on time and took good care of my dog, taking her for walks in the park and reporting back. She is a gentle soul.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember! Wether it be my own, my friends, or my neighbors, i’ve always loved and been very in tune with animals and nature. I have helped puppies with potty training, socialization, equipment dressing, crate training, recall, and more! I have also taken care of senior animals. Providing them comfort while administering any extra care or medication they may need, including injections of subcutaneous fluids. Overall, I have a ton of love and care for animals, as well as experience keeping them as safe and comfortable as possible. I’m currently interning remotely at a film production company located in Los Angeles. I only work Tuesdays and Thursdays and even then have a very flexible schedule. If you need a great last minute sitter/walker, i’m here for you! I treat your homes and pets as if they were my own! I am incredibly detail oriented, careful, considerate, and adept at problem-solving. I will carefully listen to any and all directions you provide and follow them to a tea, as well as be independent enough to prevent or solve and issues that may arise. I would love to ease your stress and help you take care of your beloved homes and animals!
About: Hi! A dog and cat lover based in UWS— I’m new to Rover but have been taking care of pets for over a decade! I’m a reliable, attentive pet sitter who genuinely loves spending time with animals :) I’ve cared for both cats and dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a slower, more gentle pace. I know it can feel scary to leave your loved furry friend for any amount of time but with me, I promise loving, special, and safe care! I have experience handling different temperaments, routines, and needs including administering medications, managing allergies, and adapting to each pet’s unique preferences. Whether it’s a quick visit, daily walks, or longer stays, I’m always happy stepping in and making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I work a hybrid schedule with a lot of flexibility throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, walks, and care. I’m in-office Tuesdays and Wednesdays, but available for morning/evening care those days, and fully flexible the rest of the week for drop-ins, walks, and sitting. I’m able to adapt to your pet’s routine and make sure they’re getting the attention and activity they need! I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and attentive environment for every pet. I have a private outdoor backyard and live just a one minute walk from central park, so dogs get plenty of fresh air, exercise, and stimulation. I’m experienced with pets of all ages, temperaments, and needs including medications and allergies and I always follow owner instructions closely. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times :)
“Ryan did a great job looking after my dog Kira. He was timely with her walks, always ensured she had food and water, and if he ever had a question was not afraid to ask. She seemed in great spirits when I got home. Happy with his work.”
“Josh is great! He is punctual, responsive and usually available. He does great with our dog who can be timid with new people, especially in our apartment. And he gives detailed information about their walks. Will definitely continue to book him in the future!”
About: My extensive background in pet sitting speaks for itself, but what truly drives me is my deep connection and ability to bond with animals. I believe this personal connection is what makes me an exceptional caregiver, and it’s the reason I’m so passionate about working with pets. I have a wide open schedule. I wake up and get my pet ready for breakfast and I handle clean up around the same time. Throughout the day I engage with my pet. I have time and availability to do house visits or to walk your pet. I live in an apartment that is pet friendly. The windows are secure and the neighbors are pet lovers as well, so there is socializing and our 5 unit apartment building. The neighborhood here engages with pets on a regular basis
“Lane showed up for a very late notice walk and was great with timing and responsiveness, and had been a reliable and trustworthy walker for my (very old) dog Peanut. Peanut loves the walks, comes back tired out from a good walk and happy. Highly recommend!”
“James is a very kind and gentle with our dog Betty who enjoys a quiet life! He’s super friendly snd relaxed and she was very happy to be off on a walk with him which is unusual in itself as she’s a Velcro dog! Highly recommend.”
“Ann totally rocks! I felt so comfortable leaving her with my lil mans and she kept me update throughout the day on how he was doing. Linus is shy at first but he opened right up to Ann! Linus and I can’t wait to have her back!!”

About: Hello! I’d love to be your pet’s bestie.

I also have 10+ years of experience walking, feeding and playing with dogs of all ages and sizes, including my own dogs (Golden Retrievers!) growing up. It brings me so much joy to see every animal's unique personality shine through when they are in my care, and I strive to make every pet feel as comfortable, safe and content as possible.

Very grateful for having connected with such a dog sitting pro!”
“Tingli and Samuel were AWESOME! They were communicative, helpful, and sent us photos of our dog everyday. They are great Dog sitters if you have a dog that may be anxious with other dogs especially at boarding places and kennels. We will definitely use Tingli and Samuel again as dog sitters!”
“Sarah gave Dante an outstanding stay caring for him while we were away visiting family do 3 days. She sent plenty of photos and kept us updated several times a day on how he was doing. She took Dante on 2-3 walks a day and gave him plenty of opportunities to make new furry friends at Central Park. Highly recommend Sarah and hope we can work together again!”
“Starry and Gio were absolutely amazing! They took great care of our dog while we were away. They took many photos and videos of him. We will definitely be using Starry and Gio again!!!”
“Anton was very kind and accommodating of my anxious dog. It was the very first boarding experience for my dog, Reiki, and he was very nervous when we arrived at Anton's place. I was worried that he would stay restless, but I was totally wrong! Anton sent me photos and updates, which made me feel safe asking more of his service again. Reiki was able to calm down within hours under his care, and very much enjoyed spending time with him 😄.”

“My 11-pound Jack Russell mix was absolutely spoiled by Victoria during a 6-night stay.

Her dog was a sweetheart too. I'd definitely rebook if we ever need a dog sitter again and would recommend Victoria to everyone.”
“Stella is amazing!! This was the first time we were leaving Norman for longer than a weekend so we were a bit nervous knowing he’s a high energy dog. Stella kept us updated every day with a mini recap of videos and pictures. She made sure he got enough exercise and play time throughout the day as well as stimulation. We were so appreciative of her helpful tips and thoughtfulness throughout his stay including giving him enrichment toys, lots of outside time, and maintaining some training habits. Her dog Koukla is also incredible and Norman had the best time playing with her (although I’m sure she is excited for some quiet time back). We couldn’t recommend her enough!!”
“Yinuo (Angela) was great! We had to find a sitter last minute and she was extremely responsive and willing to accommodate. She always sent us multiple pictures during her walks with our dog, Bobo, and would update us throughout the day. Bobo has separation anxiety so can be anxious when settling into a new place. However, Angela made him quickly feel at home, and he looked extremely comfortable and settled in in the photos she shared after we left. We will definitely be booking Angela again next time!”
“Letty had the most amazing time!! Extremely communicative and I love receiving loads of videos and pictures of our baby!!! She had the best time with you!!”
