“It was our first time using Rover and leaving our pup and we’re so glad we choose Bridget! We were just around the corner from her and it’s a plus that she has a pup of her own, Dior, to keep our little guy company. She sent daily updates, including pictures, of our little guy and he came home happy and healthy. We will definitely continue to use Bridget to help care for our little guy Marty!”
“Eleanor was the perfect sitter for our dog Basil. She cared for her and loved her as if she were her own. Do not hesitate to book Eleanor. She is wonderful.”


“Took wonderful care of our little Penny. She came back happy and well cared for, and John was perfectly communicative before and during her stay. Would highly recommend trusting John with your fur baby.”

“Will definitely book with Ryan again soon! He proactively sent lots of updates and pictures and was responsive whenever I reached out. He indulged my pup in all the cuddles he demanded, and I trust he was in good care :)”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can’t say enough good things about our dog sitter. She watched my dog for a full week and took excellent care of him. My dog is elderly and has a luxating patella in his back knee, and she was very attentive to his needs and limitations. She handled him carefully, made sure he was comfortable, and truly paid attention to his health. She kept us updated throughout the entire stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we picked him up, he was happy, calm, and clearly very well taken care of. On top of that, she even washed him the day before pickup, so he came home freshly cleaned, which was such a thoughtful touch. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals. I would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, loving dog sitter.”

“Lal was great! Very communicative and Joey had a great time w Hank and her cat. Sent lots of updates and made us feel very comfortable during Joey's stay.”

“Michael was super attentive to banjo! Great at sending update pictures, asking specific questions about his care, even separating him for meal time + accepting a door dash when he ran out of food. Michael really went the extra mile by keeping banjo for an additional night when my flight was delayed till late. Will book again!”

“Sabrina is incredible and took special care of my dog. She keeps in constant contact with photos and videos. This was my first time using Rover and I will definitely book with Sabrina again. 10/10 fully recommend her!”

“The experience was wonderful. She handled the whole process very nicely. It was my first time using her and I will definitely do it again and recommend to anyone. Btw she takes great pictures and sends them to keep you updated.”

“Mykala was awesome! She took great care of Saffy and was really flexible when my travel plans changed & I had to book an additional night. I've already booked Mykala again for my next trip and I know Saffy will be excited to see her.”

“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!”

“Ana & Luis are amazing and we're so glad we found them. They watched our toy poodle for a few days. He clearly had so much fun, play time and attention that we joked that he would not want to come home to us. Ana & Luis were also very good about keeping contact with us -- sending us updates, notes and pictures. We would definitely entrust them again with our pup in the future.”

“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!”

“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!”

“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!”

“We unfortunately had to leave our new 2.5mo puppy for ten days only a couple weeks after adopting her. She was in the middle of housetraining which made us nervous but Adam was fantastic with her. He helped reinforce housetraining with Rey, gave her lots of attention, took her on good long walks, and kept us updated the whole week. Would definitely recommend Adam, especially for high energy puppies like ours.”

“Alice and Ethan were amazing with my dog Sully! They took so many pictures and I can see how much attention he was getting! He got to go all over with them and explore new neighborhoods which he loves to do. I will definitely be using them again in the future!”

“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!”

“I’ve used Marika twice now and both times have been wonderful! She is attentive to Kace’s needs, sends pictures, and dedicates ample time for play. Kace loves other dogs, so he has a blast spending time with Marika & Suki. I’ll definitely continue using her for future sittings.”

Her care is gentle, skillful, and kind, with attention to every detail, from feeding that included medicine, to freshening water, and litter, to petting and playtime.

Before finding Arianna, I found it hard to leave my pet, and I am delighted to have complete trust and confidence in highly recommending her!”

“Clint was absolutely wonderful watching Archie! He is a shy cat and hard to coax out, but Clint was very patient and made sure Archie had everything else he needed. Clint was also very prompt with his visits and shared detailed reports that helped me feel in the loop. Archie eventually came out towards the end, so I would certainly book Clint again since Archie seemed comfortable. Thank you, Clint!”
“Joyce was AMAZING! We were out of town for a week and she followed the instructions we left and was great at communicating how they were doing. One of my cats is quite nervous and seemed to warm right up to her, was such a relief knowing my cats were being well cared for while I was away. Will be my go to sitter in the future!”

Highestly recommended!”

“Kissing the skies for finding Sierra! She is the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. She went above and beyond and took Kobe to run all of her errands so that he wasn’t bored home alone. And when she was home she played with him all day and didn’t leave his side. 100/10 would recommend and we can’t wait to Kobe to stay with her again!”

Robin kept me posted on how Benny was doing to make sure that I was not worrying and sent lots of photos. She took time to play with Benny, made sure she had water and was fed and also provided plenty of opportunities for potty breaks. I would definitely trust Robin to take care of my pups again ❤️”

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: Whether you require daycare, boarding, house-sitting, or occasional drop-in visits/walks, you can count on me to treat your pet like a precious, irreplaceable gem! I’m the pawrent of a Pekingese dog, two Exotic Shorthair cats, and a Persian cat. I am also a foster meowmie for other kitties. I have experience with senior and special-needs pets, including as a volunteer dog walker for PAWS NY, an organization that helps people in need keep their pets in their lives. I will send you lots of photos and videos so you can be fully informed about the well-being of your pet/s. I am a full-time pet care specialist. In addition to dogs and cats, I’m also happy to care for bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas, birds, and other exotic pets. I’ve read some horror stories about overnight sitters, as I’m sure you have. If I am house-sitting for you, I will be staying overnight in your home, so your pet will be in its usual environment. If you choose daycare or boarding with me, I will be staying overnight with your pet in a secure, cozy apartment with a fenced-in backyard (my own dog and cats won’t be present). I don’t walk dogs off leash and I don’t open windows for the safety of small dogs and cats. If your animal has any symptoms of illness, you’ll be advised immediately. If it’s hot out, I will ask that we run the A/C for the health of your pet. The well-being of your pet is as important to me as the well-being of my own pets.

Definitely booking her again - we loved her 💛🐾”

“Audrey is great, I recommend her to anyone needing some help with their pup! She's been walking my dog Pepper the last couple of weeks and everything has been smooth and easy. She is prompt when responding to booking requests and provides great communication during and after walks. She even was able to bring another dog along for the walks so Pepper could make a new friend! Thanks Audrey!”


About: I have taken care of dogs all my life!! growing up in a household filled with all sorts of pets, I had my first dog at the ripe age of 8. Since then i've always had a pet in my care! I treat animals as if they are my own children! (spoiler: they are) I am now 22 years old and have taken care of a multitude of different doggies ranging from puppies to seniors!

I have spent time with my friend’s poms previously and really miss the interactions. I have availability on weekdays ideally Tuesday’s and Friday’s. My scheduled time preference is 12-6 but I can be flexible with timing. I am very open to learning what works for you and yours. Describe myself as quite responsible and quick to learn different needs and preferences.

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.

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: 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

Reiki was able to calm down within hours under his care, and very much enjoyed spending time with him 😄.”

About: I grew up with cats — five of them — so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Friends regularly trust me to cat sit, and I truly love creating a calm, safe, and affectionate environment for pets. About six years ago, I completely fell in love with dogs too — especially after bonding with my partner’s rescue from Mexico, a big Golden Retriever/Labrador mix with a strong personality and an even bigger heart. He’s a 100-pound baby, and I loved taking him on long walks (sometimes 2 hours!), playing, cuddling, and keeping him happy and active. Over the years, I’ve gained plenty of hands-on experience dog sitting for friends and caring for different personalities and energy levels. Whether your pet loves adventure, playtime, or just cozy company, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I would love to host your dog or cat in my home and make them feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and can plan most days around pet care responsibilities. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and check-ins fit naturally into my routine. I am organized, reliable, and make sure pets receive attention, exercise, and consistency throughout the week, including mornings, evenings, and weekends when needed. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s habits, preferences, and routines before care begins. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I maintain a clean environment, secure doors and outdoor spaces, avoid unsafe interactions, and provide attentive supervision. My goal is for pets to feel comfortable, relaxed, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind.
