“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!!”
“Farrah had another fantastic stay at Ian and Clementina’s! They shared numerous updates, photos, and videos during her multi day stay at their apartment, and came back super happy!!”
“Kecia did a great job with our Harper girl over a long weekend! She sent lots of pictures and updates so that we knew Harper was safe and happy. She went out of her way to make our pup comfortable. And - Harper loved the back yard!”
“Tallin was a truly wonderful dogsitter! I've left my dog with very few sitters before, so I was a bit anxious about leaving him with a stranger, but Tallin put me right at ease with twice-daily updates and lots of photos. I will absolutely try to book with her again next time I need a sitter!”
“Minako was so great with my pup! She sent pictures almost every day and responded very quickly to my questions. Will definitely be booking with Minako and her husband again!”
“Renzo and his wife are phenomenal! My husband and I were nervous about leaving our six month old puppy for the first time, and Renzo was so amazing about making us feel like our dog was in great hands! He was extremely communicative during the weekend, and sent lots of pictures. It was very clear to us that our dog was given lots of exercise, affection, and care while he was staying with Renzo. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for dog care!”
“Always a pleasure with Michael, very good communicator, great attention to detail, no issues with him giving medicine or walking our dog who is leash reactive and can be tough to walk. Thanks again, Michael!”
“Michael took excellent care of Rocky. He listened to all of Rocky's needs, let me know when anything needed to be adjusted, gave recommendations for things to bring, and took great care of my dog. Michael also took pictures of Rocky and sent them to me so I knew Rocky was happy and healthy while my wife and I were away in Colorado. If you need affordable and excellent dog care in NYC, I would recommend meeting up with Michael.”
“Chandni and her partner Issac were fantastic to our cat Olivia and I cannot recommend them enough!! We boarded at their place for a little over a week because we were hosting some family in our small apartment. We got updates with photos and videos of Olivia every few hours which was so helpful, and they even got her some new toys! We really appreciate Chandni and Issac for taking care of Olivia like their own. Thank you again!!”
“Anastasiia is a wonderful sitter! Communication was easy and seamless, she gave us daily updates and was very accommodating for pick up and drop off. I felt assured Ginger was in great hands while we were away.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our pup Gomi this week! Vera was very caring and attentive to Gomi’s needs. Communication was fantastic — frequent photos and videos gave us comfort knowing he was in great hands, and she kept us updated on everything from his eating to his bathroom habits. Gomi came home happy and relaxed, and we’d happily consider booking with her again. 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!”
“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!”
“The absolute best best dog sitter of all time! My piglet can be a handful and Angie gave him the staycation of a lifetime, so grateful for her and cannot recommend enough!”

Can’t wait to hire her again!”
“Sophia did a fantastic job! She sent me such thoughtful updates and photos along the way. I knew my kitty was being well cared for, and would absolutely book Sophia again.”

I would not hesitate to book Britni again or to recommend her to others!”

She went above and beyond to take care of both of our cat babies and keep them happy and entertained. She took so many photos and videos and gave us detailed messages on the visit! We looked forward to her messages telling us how they were and how the visit went because of how detailed and fun they were to read. She also cleaned up after them and played with them the entire time she was here! We will definitely continue to use her because of how comfortable she made the entire experience. Could not thank her enough for taking care of them while we were away!”
“Carter took care of our cat, Lola, for a week while we were away and did a wonderful job. He communicated consistently, gave her supplements without issue, and made sure she got plenty of TLC. He even helped with a few extra things around the apartment, which we really appreciated. It was clear he’s a cat person. We would happily book him again.”
“Bethany is warm, friendly person who is prompt and reliable - and was a perfect sitter for our little black cat, Jellybean! Before we left for our trip , she came over to familiarize herself with her routine and where we kept all of the things required to feed and care for her. And while she was there for her daily visit, she made sure to seek out Jellybean - who likes to hide from unfamiliar people - and okay with her to make her more comfortable. And it worked! After the first visit, it seems Jellybean came out on her own to greet her - and she sent pictures to prove it. 😻”
“We used Vanessa again for our cat and she was so communicative and helpful. Our cat has hyperthyroidism so she’s needs to be on a diet with medication. Vanessa made sure she got her food in a timely way! Highly recommend”
“Prompt. Excellent care giving for our cat. Played with our cat. Fed, did box, picked up mail. Our cat did not seem to miss us at all. what else could you ask for?”
About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals my entire life. Back home in Ohio, I’ve had 7 cats, 2 dogs, a horse, a chinchilla, and a bearded dragon. I’ve dog sat for rescues and I’m also good with dogs that have walking/pulling troubles. Happy to feed some fish too if needed! I’ve just graduated and my schedule differs by the day, so I’m looking at getting back in to pet care! It’s been awhile because I’ve been finishing up my degree, but I’ve already done some pet sitting while in school, so I know that I am able to work with my time well and can manage any job/needs with clear communication now that I’m out of school. Long story short - I’ll make time for you and your pets! I’m sensitive to each pet’s individual needs. Each dog is different and unique, and I prioritize getting to know their personality. I also have experience calming pet anxiety and managing unpredictable rescues.
“Sam was super communicative and took great care of our cat while we were gone. He sent great photos and updates, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to make sure their pet is in good hands!”
“Christopher followed the inscrutions perfectly and was accomodating with any hiccups that came up . My cat loves him ! Very fast reply time and communicative with cute pictures as well . Recommended for sure !”

About: I’ve trained puppies and have flexible morning and afternoon hours for dog walking and also available for house boarding if needed. Can take them out frequently as well, since will be at home all day. Transitioning from graduate school, flexible hours, can be home all day to take care of them, take them out for multiple walks or spend the day with them at their place. I love animals, I treat all animals with the same love I’ve always taken care of our golden retriever back home. They will not be in better hands. I can provide pictures during the day if wanted.
About: We’ve both grown up with pets in the family, and once we moved to the city, we both started pet sitting and walking for our neighbors. We have experience with senior pets, administering medication, and special need pets. Your baby is safe with us! We both work hybrid in the city, making it easy for us to adjust our schedule to fit your pet’s needs. Whether it’s both of us or just one, we can assure you your baby will be accompanied at all times! Whatever you need from us for your pets, you got it! If you need us to crate your dog, leave and pick up keys with a doorman, turn heaters on/off, etc. for your fur baby, nothing is too big of an ask. We’ll always share lots of pics too for you to feel comfortable!

She made sure he felt comfortable and loved from the start, and she kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind.

I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who genuinely loves and cares for pets. 💕”

“We had a great experience with Bethany! She was very responsible, responsive, and flexible throughout the process. We did a meet-and-greet beforehand, which made us feel very comfortable. During daycare, she kept us updated with messages, photos, and videos, and always responded very quickly. She was also accommodating when we needed to adjust the original timing. She clearly cares about the dogs she watches, and we would definitely book with her again!”

“Paula took excellent care of my puppy Molly, she stayed with her for a day while I was away. They had great time together and I see that Molly really loves her! We will be definitely coming again.”
About: ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. My first dog — Lucy, a Border Collie I had when I was 11 back in Shanghai, China — was my best friend for 16 years. Alongside her, I cared for a rescued stray cat "Noji" and an adopted poodle "Bebe" when I was 13, which taught me patience, responsibility, policing different pets, and how to understand different pet personalities. After moving to the U.S. for school, I brought home my baby Corgi "Brioche" in 2020. She’s now a 5-year-old certified service dog who’s friendly, well-trained, and walked three times a day for at least 30 minutes each time. I also helped train and kept a baby Devon Rex cat for my family in 2025. What sets me apart is my lifelong, hands-on experience with pets of different breeds, ages, and temperaments — from energetic puppies to senior dogs. I love fur babies more than anything and always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I will be working part time starting summer 2026 in NYC, so my schedule is flexible, I'm available for daily walks, boarding both weekdays and weekends. I live in a 2 bedroom in FiDi close to battery park city. There are no crates and my corgi was never crate-trained. I don't have indoor pet potty so I almost only take my dog out for potty unless the weather is crazy. I have plenty of dog beds and toys.
“Summer absolutely loved her time with Hang! Photos and videos of Summer were shared with us during her stay and Hang was super responsive to all messages. Would love to have her watch Summer again!”
“Roger was great with our 3-month old retriever Boomer! He was super flexible, communicative, and easy to coordinate with. He even moved around his schedule because Boomer was still too young (a wild card) to hang out without supervision. He did several walks & hung out with him all day - and shared photos! I really appreciate what Roger did for Boomer. He was a very happy pup both days.”
“I’ve rebooked daycare with Aashika many times as Buddy enjoys daycare with her and is happy to see her. I appreciate Aashika’s updates and summary of Buddy’s time, and highly recommend her as a sitter.”
“Georgia had the very best day with Emily and her dog, Kit, and I couldn’t recommend them more highly! She had good plays, they went on a great walk, and Georgia looked so happy in the photos she sent! We already booked our next play date!”

About: Hi my name is Rae and I have always been a HUGE animal lover. I grew up on a horse farm with a golden retriever (Bert) and an Australian Shepherd (Harley) and they were my best friends! Today my family and I have a family of 4 mini and toy aussies who are my everything! Their names are Eloise, Dakota, Jaxon and Jasmine and I would do anything to make them happy! They live downtown in my parent's townhouse so I can't wait to host your dog and have all the snuggles! I own a fine jewelry company and work closely with the charity Animal Haven to give back to dogs and cats in the NY area who are in need of loving homes. I treat my pets, and other’s pets as family members who need just as much love and emotional care as they do physical activity! I couldn’t imagine my life not being surrounded by furry friends so, I can’t wait to meet you and your pet family!
“Britni is super helpful, responsive, and kind! My dog was shy to warm up to her but she has earned her trust quickly and thoughtfully! We will be definitely rebooking Britni!”

About: Hi! I’m originally from New York City and am currently back home for the next few months after spending the last three years living abroad and traveling extensively. During that time, I split my life between Australia—my current home base—and exploring different parts of the world. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve had pets since I was a kid and have cared for my own dogs from playful puppyhood all the way through to their senior years. Along the way, I’ve also looked after friends’ dogs of all breeds and temperaments, and today I share my home with three cats who keep me constantly entertained. Honestly, I’ll take any excuse to be around animals—whether it’s cats, dogs, big or small, shy or full of energy. As I mentioned, travel is another big part of my life. While exploring the world, I took on pet sitting in different countries, which gave me the chance to meet wonderful pets and families while doing something I truly love. Between that and a lifetime of caring for my own animals, I’m confident and capable when it comes to looking after your furry family members. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and genuinely passionate about animals, I’d love the chance to meet your pets and give them all the love they deserve while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I’m currently back in New York for the next few months and have a very flexible schedule, which means I’m home most of the day and can easily plan my day around a pet’s needs. Whether that means early morning walks, sticking to feeding schedules, playtime, medication, or simply providing companionship, I enjoy making sure animals receive the attention and care they deserve. Having cared for pets throughout my life and while traveling abroad, I’m used to adapting to different routines and personalities. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for them never feels like a chore—it’s something I look forward to and happily incorporate into my everyday life. In reality, every pet I’ve ever looked after has been completely different, so I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to pet care. Each animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always try to tailor my care accordingly. While my own dog is very low maintenance, I’ve also cared for senior pets, anxious pets, and very independent animals. Some love long walks and lots of playtime, while others are happiest relaxing and sticking to a familiar routine. I always take the owner's instructions into account and do my best to maintain the schedule and environment that makes their pet feel most comfortable. I believe consistency and patience go a long way in helping animals feel safe and happy while their owners are away. Since I’m currently back in New York for the next few months, I’m home most of the day and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and care, and to adapt to any specific needs they may have.
“Anna was amazing with my puppy! Her level of communication was reassuring and so appreciated. She took great care of her on her walks. My puppy can be a bit skeptical of new people but loved her immediately. Can’t wait to use Anna again!”
“Sophia was amazing with Loxi while I was away. She would come greet her every night and play with her as she got her ready for her walk. My doggie who is normally pretty sad when I am away was playful and happy the whole time in large part due to Sophia!!! :) From the meet and greet to the end of my vacation, Sophia put in so much care, attention and love into caring for my doggy I cannot express how much I appreciate it and and so grateful so her to have been cared for so well while I was away. I would definitely have Sophia walk my doggy again anytime!!”
“Minako was super responsive when communicating and took a lot of care when walking my dog, along with a good description and photos. Would definitely book with her again. Thank you Minako!”
About: I have owned both cats and dogs for most of my life and have been pet sitting since high school. I have experience with puppies and seniors! I am currently a college student, so I have great flexibility in my schedule and I can be available most days for boarding and walks. My apartment complex is pet-friendly and the space is comfortable and can accommodate many pet needs. The surrounding area is safe and great for walks.
About: I had 3 dogs during my childhood and of course I want another one. Meanwhile I take care of my friend’s dogs when they are traveling or just busy I am currently having a break from work, so I have a flexible schedule. However, even when I am considering going back to school I want to allocate time for pets (which is like a weekend, vacations or relaxation time for me) The goal is to bring that company and care to the pets when their owners are on their daily responsibilities. I want to make them feel safe, happy, relax or energetic.

About: I have been around dogs my whole life! I grew up with a shih tzu named Rocky and adopted a pomsky named Koala 5 years ago. Koala and I love going on our daily walks! Our walks are the best part of my day. Dogs are so special and deserve to be loved and cared for with patience and attentiveness. I have never met a dog I did not love. Up until a year ago, Koala and I lived with two roomates; my best friend and her 5 year old chihuahua named Georgie. Because my roommate worked a 9-5 at the office, I was Georgie’s main care taker. I trained both Koala and Georgie as puppies and I also cared for my dog Rocky as a senior dog. Rocky unfortunately passed away in October 2024 at the age of 16. I have thorough experience caring for senior dogs. I find it very important to clean dogs’ paws after walking in Manhattan and consistently do so to all dogs that I care for and will do the same for your fur baby if your dog is comfortable having his/her paws touched. My schedule is very flexible as I own my own fashion brand and spend my days designing from home. I typically start my day at 7am by going to the gym and then walk my dog (who would love to have other dogs join our walks) at 8:30am. Because I am self-employed, I can spend as much time as needed to tend to your dog! My availability ranges from 8am up until 10pm at night for walks and drop-offs. I also am available to board pups almost every night. I have an extremely pet-friendly apartment as my own dog, Koala is a very curious pup. I also am willing to leave a pee-pad down if your dog is trained to use one. Koala shares all of her toys and is extremely friendly with all dogs; big and small. I leave water and kibble out all day. My apartment is in a doorman building, has no stairs and has three spacious bedrooms plus a good amount of living space for playing. Human food is never left out and I often play relaxing music that I feel dogs enjoy. Jhené Aiko is koko’s favorite! My favorites consist of Norah Jones, Lana Del Rey, and Billie Eilish.
About: I've pet sat for several years now and I have experience caring for multiple pets at once. I also have experience with senior dogs and puppies. I meet your pets where they're at and I cater my care to fulfill each of their unique needs! I'm currently pet-sitting full time and can check in on your pets at any time! I am also available for house sitting and overnight stays all days of the week. I can meet your pet's exact needs for them! I can care for senior pets and their medical needs, as well as younger pets and any excercise they need.

“Renzo and his wife are phenomenal! My husband and I were nervous about leaving our six month old puppy for the first time, and Renzo was so amazing about making us feel like our dog was in great hands! He was extremely communicative during the weekend, and sent lots of pictures. It was very clear to us that our dog was given lots of exercise, affection, and care while he was staying with Renzo. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for dog care!”
“Michael took excellent care of Rocky. He listened to all of Rocky's needs, let me know when anything needed to be adjusted, gave recommendations for things to bring, and took great care of my dog. Michael also took pictures of Rocky and sent them to me so I knew Rocky was happy and healthy while my wife and I were away in Colorado. If you need affordable and excellent dog care in NYC, I would recommend meeting up with Michael.”
“Kevin and his dog Reuben were wonderful hosts for our girl Lily!!! She has an absolute ball with them! Kevin was very communicative and proactive about sending photos of all the fun and adventures they were having. We would love to have Lily stay with them again if a need arose!”
“Claudia is such a great pet sitter for my dog Jett. She takes great care of him, takes him on fun adventures, and provides plenty of updates during his stay. She is reliable, communicative, and very friendly. Jett adores her! Would highly recommend her for pet sitting!!”
“Matt was fantastic with my dog Tako. She took to him instantly, which she rarely does, and I felt comfortable with him right away as well. Easy communication, easy drop-off and pick-up - would absolutely recommend!”
“Kiersten and Casey are the best! My pup is always so happy to see them and feels totally at home with them. Kiersten sends the best photos throughout the day which always makes me smile.”
“So glad to have found Maria and Michael. This was our first time leaving our adopted pup with sitters in NYC and they made the process so easy. Very knowledgeable, sent frequent check ins, and our pup loved spending time with them. Thank you! I'm sure Frijda can't wait until she comes back over!”
“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.”
“Starry & Gio were fantastic! This was our first time leaving Carmela overnight with a Rover, and we were so happy with the level of communication that they provided. We got consistent pictures and updates throughout the day. I’d definitely have Carmela stay with them again!”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our puppy with Ayush. From the start, communication was excellent, and we felt completely at ease leaving our puppy in his care. He provided regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our puppy came home happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious that Ayush genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs and treated our puppy like part of the family. We especially appreciated our puppy having new friends to play with (Ayush’s dogs). We would absolutely book with Ayush again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy person to board with.”
“I always have my dog stay with Aksel when I travel. Ny dog can be a bit tough to walk, but he is consistent about taking her to the park and making sure she gets exercise each day. Highly recommend!”
“Cayla and Matthew are amazing. This was Theo’s first time staying with a sitter and he had a blast. They sent so many updates via photos and videos and it made us feel so at ease while we were away. It’s not easy at all to care for a 4 month old puppy, but they went above and beyond. We will definitely have Theo stay with them again!!”
“Pratik is one of the best care takers I’ve ever experienced through Rover and I could not recommend him enough - the way he truly cared for my corgi Koda and made him feel so at home meant the world to me. I will absolutely be reaching out to Pratik again and I will recommend him to everyone! Your pup will be in perfect hands!! 🥰”
“She maintained constant communication with me, providing updates and even sending photographs of my dog, Lucky. I would use her services again in the future if I require them. She ensured that Lucky was well-cared for and felt at ease during his stay.”
“We had a great experience with Dmitrii! He was able to take Archie on very short notice, which we truly appreciated. From the start, he was reliable, communicative, and clearly very comfortable with dogs. He kept us updated and took wonderful care of Archie, making sure he was happy, safe, and well-loved the entire time. We came home to a relaxed, happy pup, which says everything. We would absolutely trust him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter.”
“Sydney was a great sitter. She communicated well and responded quickly to our request. She welcomed a "get to know you visit" so that our dog could meet Henry her cat. She updated us with photos and was flexible with our drop off and pick up times. We will certainly use her again.”
