“Sabrina took wonderful care of my dog. I had to book the boarding last minite, but Sabrina was very accommodating. She responded to my messages quickly and also kept sending me photos of how my dog was doing which gave me peace of mind. When I was picking him up, Sabrina explained in detail how he ate, slept, walked and behaved during the stay. This proved to me that Sabrina paid a lot of attention to my dog. Most dog sitters in my experience didn't share this much detail. I highly recommend Sabrina!”

“We booked with Sanaz for a long weekend and Ivy adored her! She sent us daily updates and took Ivy on lots of walks.

She also was flexible with timing of drop offs and pick ups which was much appreciated!! Thank you so much! (:”

About: Experienced dog walker + sitter excited to make your days a little easier. I live in Stuytown and am currently prioritizing other Stuytown residents who may be looking for weekday walks, dog park jaunts, and boarding for their pups. I grew up with dogs, walked and cared for them professionally for two years, and have been raising my own dog for the past three years. Her name is Lyra and she’s super sweet with dogs. Whether they’re relaxing at home or playing in the park, she’ll be sure to keep your dog company! I’m looking forward to meeting your pup and returning them to you tired and happy! 💕🐶 I work from home so I am totally flexible in my ability to walk or sit dogs during weekdays. Evening and weekend availability will vary. I will work with each dog according to owner’s preference and established routines. I am comfortable crating or putting dogs in a time out especially so that play doesn’t get too out of hand while indoors.
“Kristen was amazing! She made sure to send photos of our pup enjoying her stay :) Kristen was very communicative and caring to our dog’s needs and we will definitely be working with her again.”

“Abbey was always right on time, stayed and played with our cats, and was a pleasure to work with. She made going out of town easy knowing we left our pets with someone reliable and kind! Highly recommend!”
“Very good. He checked in on my cat every day for a week. Sent 3 to 4 pictures daily with solid updates around what was going on. My Cat apparently really didn't like him at first and would show aggression. This worried me since it could be a sign of sickness or pain. He stuck thru it though and still gave my cat the care and space he needed. In the end just before he finished my cat finally warmed up to him. He has incredible patience and is very caring and understanding with animals! Highly recommended.”
“This is the second time Rosanna has looked after our two cats, and we are once again thrilled. She was wonderful, sent us consistent updates on how they were doing, and we came home to two very happy little ones. We cannot recommend her enough!”
“Mary went above and beyond taking care of my two cats while I was gone for a full week. One of my cats had a few accidents while I was away and Mary when the extra mile, ensuring he was okay and cleaning up the area. She also was extremely communicative, sent plenty of pictures, and gave my cat so much love! I could not recommend her enough!”
“This is my third time using Jessie and I’ll always use her (if she’s not booked up!). She is very professional and, as someone who gets a lot of anxiety leaving her precious baby, I feel totally safe and comfortable knowing she’s in Jessie’s capable hands. Everyday I’m away, I look forward to Jessie’s report cards and love seeing the great photos she takes of my cat. I would recommend her highly! Thank you, Jessie!”
“Melissa was an excellent sitter for our cat! She was thoughtful and responsive throughout our time away. We felt so relieved knowing our cat was in such caring hands. We’re so grateful for the wonderful, considerate care she provided and would happily book with her again!”
“Kristen was fantastic. Was extremely caring, professional, communicated consistently, and more. She even look Perry to the vet when she needed a quick nurse visit. Plus, Perry loved her. Will hire again in the future!!”
“Christopher was so great with my cat for drop in visits over the weekend. I am new to the city so it’s hard to find people you can trust and I felt comfortable with him stopping in to care for her while we were away. I recommend!”
“Ava did a great job taking care of my 2 cats! My cats warmed up to her fast, she sent a descriptive message of how they’re doing each visit, and sent many photos. Highly recommend and would book her again.”
“So kind. Walked me through everything she did for my sweet cat. Notified me that my cat was a bit warm and moving slowly to keep me aware to keep an eye on it. Really great service.”
“Kristina loves animals and was so attentive and engaged with my pet while I was away. She clearly cares about every pet she is spending time with and makes their individual personality a priority. I will be parterning with her again for future pet care needs!”
“Man was an excellent choice for cat care. He fed my cat, gave her medicine and fresh water and cleaned the litter box every day for a week. He always sent a photo and report. He left everything so clean. There were no empty cans in the sink and the used dishes had been washed. It was great coming home to a clean kitchen. I recommend Man highly and will use him again for my next trip.”
“My cat Charlie boarded with Hahillah for 4 days and she took wonderful care of him, administering his meds and food schedule. I would definitely reach out to Hahilah the next time that I need care for him!”

“Jarianna was a lovely Dogsitter! She took care of my dog so well, and my dog was clearly happy guy. She was very flexible, responsive and communicative. And a very sweet energy. Would definitely book again.”
About: I love dogs (and cats!) I just love them so much :) My husband and I have cared for our disabled Labrador since she was 5 months old (she’s now 7), so I’m very comfortable with special needs and senior dogs. I also grew up with a dog so I am experienced with puppies and basic training. I genuinely love dogs and treat every one like my own! I’m home full-time, so I have plenty of time to give your dog lots of attention, playtime, walks, and care. I’m available throughout the week for both daycare and boarding. I live in an apartment with an elevator. I have plenty of space for play, meals, and cuddles, and I make sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for. I follow each pet’s routine closely and adapt to their individual needs, whether they’re active, chill or somewhere in between.
“Amanda was wonderful with out dachshund, Lola, who fell in love with her very quickly. Lola can be a bit of a handful (big personality, Napoleon syndrome) but Amanda knew how to handle her, and it sounds like they both had a great time. I know Lola got lots of cuddles and activity, and after the first day (when she was nervous being left with a stranger), she was very excited to see Amanda every morning.”
“Great dog sitter! Very caring, reliable, and attentive. I felt completely at ease leaving my dog with you. I really appreciate your patience and the love you showed him—especially since he can be a bit anxious. Definitely would book again! Thank you so much!”
“Barry had a great day with Janis! He loved her since the beginning and even napped on her lap. It was super easy to communicate with her and she is such a lovely person overall, she sent some pics of our little boy and kept us posted during the day. Barry will definitely come back to spend the day with her!”
“Cari is great! She was responsive and flexible during the booking process and was so loving and gentle with our dog Greta. She had a great day of play and came home happy and tired!”
“Eugenia was amazing with my dog Cooper. She was fun, caring, and super engaged. She took him to the park - twice - played with him, and treated him like her own. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter. Your pup couldn’t be in better hands.”
“Janet & Spencer are so sweet and took such great care of Rosa! They made sure she was comfortable and all her needs were met. She had a wonderful time with them!”
“Eloise was so excited to see Michael again! Thank you for taking such good care of her and having such patience for her during her wild puppy phase. We appreciate you so much!”
“Brandon was amazing! He communicated so well and kept me updated throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog was excited at drop-off and absolutely loved spending time with his dog. It was clear she was well cared for and had a great time. I would definitely recommend Brandon to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter”

We met her up and handed our boy, trusting all the lovely reviews and they are all absolutely right! Gloria is so sweet and caring, thank you so much for keeping our little guy safe while mom and dad went out for the night!! Will definitely contact Gloria again in the future.”

“Kristen is super reliable, caring, and clearly great with dogs, my dog is always excited to see her and comes back happy. She is very communicative and made me feel completely comfortable trusting her with my dog.”
About: Hi! I'm Rose, a 22 year old animal lover originally from Colorado. I've been around animals my entire life and have always had dogs growing up. I also rode horses competitively for 15 years, which taught me responsibility, patience, and the importance of providing consistent, attentive care for animals. My family currently has two Golden Retrievers, Callie and Maggie, who I miss dearly now that I've been living in New York for over a year. Being away from them is actually what inspired me to start pet sitting. I miss having dogs around and love spending time with them. I have a flexible hybrid work schedule that only requires me to be in the office two days per week, allowing me plenty of time to provide attention, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Whether your dog is energetic and active or prefers a slower pace, I'll care for them as if they were my own. As mentioned in my profile, I have a flexible hybrid work schedule that allows me to choose the two days I work from the office each week. For the remainder of the week, I work from home, giving me lots of flexibility to spend quality time with your pet as well as time within my day to step away from my desk to go on a walk! I live in a one-bedroom apartment in the West Village and keep a very clean and organized home. My building has a great private outdoor space, so your pet will have opportunities to get outside throughout the day. I'm also only 2 blocks from the West Side Highway, which has plenty of grassy areas, walking paths, and dog parks. I love being outside and going on walks, so your dog will get lots of exercise and attention.
“George was prompt and extremely sweet. He and my dog Blaze hit it off immediately. When Blaze came back he was exhausted .I would recommend him and it de him in the future.”
“Jessie saved my life this weekend! I came down with some virus and needed immediate dog care and Jessie was there to help. She was punctual, communicative, and very professional. Will absolutely book again, thank you so much for all of your help!!!”
About: Spent time with dogs and cats since I was young. My aunt and neighbor worked for the same animal rescue company which became one of my primary experiences with animals. I’m able to handle any size and attitude, i’m in plenty good shape if they prefer runs as well. I’m missing my dogs back home, let me take care of yours !! I have classes 5-6 monday through thursday. I am free all other times and more than willing, can commute any distance and will walk any distance. I’m understanding of each clients rules and expectations, I tend to be softer on the animals but will run a strict ship if that’s the request.
About: I’m new to Rover but not new to taking care of pups! Last year I fostered dogs through Hearts and Bones for 4 months when my schedule allowed for it. Also, I have been a dog walker and over night caretaker for many friends and families dogs! I love dogs and all pets, I look after them with care and kindness. I have experience with dogs who have special needs and one of my fosters dogs had surgery while I was taking care of him so I am also familiar with many situations! Hello! This summer I transitioned from being a software engineer to a student to pursue my Tech MBA at NYU. Most days I have one class from 9am-noon near Washington Square Park then spend my rest of the day in the area or back home in Williamsburg near Mccaren Park. I am very trustworthy and respectful of everyone’s space. For dog walking and sitting I am very good with instructions and you can count on me to take the best care of your pet!

“Ellison was happy to accommodate my slightly unusual request, seeing as Meg is blind and doesn’t need a full 30-mins of walking. She was more than willing to let Meg out for a potty break and spend a little time with her at home inside the 30 minute walking window. I also appreciated that she was able to stop by ahead of time so I could quickly show her the usual routine and allow Meg to sniff her to get familiar before she came over for the walks that were scheduled.”
“Elizabeth walks our dog multiple times a week and we can’t recommend her enough — she is fantastic!! Our dog loves her and she is so easy to work with. She is always on time and is flexible, communicative, and thoughtful. We have loved working with her and highly recommend!”
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover who has grown up with both dogs and cats of all different breeds and sizes. Over the years, I've cared for dogs and cats for family and friends, including puppies, and have received positive feedback. Since moving to the city, one of the things I miss most is being around animals every day and having pets of my own. I'm very active and live near the West Side Highway, so I love getting outside for long walks and giving dogs plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. I work remotely for a recruiting firm, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the week and weekends. I'm available for dog walks and drop-in visits in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and I'm happy to accommodate your pet's routine whenever possible. I’m happy to accommodate any of your pets needs and please let me know your requests and expectations. I know how important it is to stay connected while you're away, so I'm always happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind!

“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.”

“This was the first time we had ever left our dog with anyone except for my parents but Jen made it absolutely worry, free. We have an older dog with medical issues and so suffice it to say he needed more care than your average pup. But Jen's kindness and expertise made it so that Whiskey had a great time which allowed my husband and I to have a great time on our getaway as well. Five stars would recommend Jen !”
“Amazing person! Love the energy but also her attention to detail especially when taking care of my pup. First time my dog looked so sad leaving Hahillah too. He looked like he had so much fun and that's all I could ever hope for. Thank you Hahillah! Would highly recommend!”
“Elena was able to take Kiwi last minute while I had a family emergency. Not only was she able to step in, she did an amazing job with Kiwi. I knew Kiwi was safe, all her meds were given to her exactly as needed and she got all of her daily walks! I got updates and pictures, Kiwi had a great time with her 🩷 I would absolutely use Elena again, I feel lucky to have found her. I highly recommend Elena for any pup but she did especially great with my sensitive, high maintenance girl.”
