“Candice was amazing and Barry absolutely adored her and her kids! he had a great time there and came home so happy! 10/10 would recommend and will def be going back!”
“Mary and Todd are the absolute best dog sitters! Their great care for our dog Toby gives us a lot of peace of mind. We know he is having a great time — it shows in the photos that Mary sends to us throughout his stay.”
“My girl Josie had a fantastic time with Nicole; she was well-cared for, well-loved and I received daily updates and pics of all the fun she was having. I highly recommend Nicole and will certainly use her again!”
“Saskia was absolutely fantastic! She took such wonderful care of our two energetic dogs and our energetic cat, and we couldn't have been happier. She truly went above and beyond, staying in constant communication with us the whole time we were away and sending photos and updates that really put our minds at ease. She put an incredible amount of heart into caring for our pets—she easily gave one hundred and fifty to two hundred percent—and her response time was incredibly fast.”
“Highly recommend! Taylor took wonderful care of my dog. I would absolutely use her again- she was communicative, and I felt very comfortable having my dog in her hands.”
“Garrett & Deanne were really great! Ruby seemed to have a great time with them. They kept me updated on how she was doing (especially with the fireworks over July 4th). I'll definitely be having them watch my girl in the future!”
“Amanda watched our 2 year old Shepherd mix, Sid, one night when we needed a calm dinner out, and we couldn't have made a better decision. Her fenced in yard was a dream for our dog, and she was super accommodating and responsive with our day of request and quick meet and greet. She sent us plenty of pictures of Sid smiling and romping around, we will definitely be booking with Amanda again!”
About: My boys and I love dogs, and we love being at home, making us a fabulous choice for hosting your favorite loved one. Thank you for considering us! Hi, I’m David. I’m a stay-at-home dad to my two boys, Zenith and KoaSol, and we share our home with our dog, Magnolia — Maggie for short. We live on 10 private acres with open lawn, fields, gardens, and trails, far away from roads and traffic. We spend much of our time outdoors gardening, landscaping, cutting trails, playing, and caring for the property, so visiting dogs have plenty of fresh air, space, and attention. My boys are 11 and 5 and love dogs. They are excited to welcome new dog friends, while I remain solely responsible for all care, supervision, routines, and safety. Maggie is social, playful, and friendly, and she enjoys having other dogs around. I will respect your instructions and your dog’s normal routine as much as possible. Please share any important details about feeding, health, behavior, crate comfort, sleeping preferences, and how your dog does with children and other dogs. Meet-and-greets are welcome before booking, and I’m happy to send updates during your dog’s stay. My goal is to provide a safe, attentive, family-centered home where your dog is cared for with patience, respect, and genuine attention. Because I’m home most of the time, your dog will not be left alone for long periods. If we leave for errands, Maggie is comfortable in her crate, and we can offer the same option for your dog if they are crate-trained or feel secure that way. We also have a spare crate available, or you are welcome to bring your dog’s own bed, crate, blanket, or comfort items. While my kids are always game to play, I will be solely responsible for the care of your loved one!
“Sophie was amazing with our furry baby, Fancy! She kept us updated throughout the boarding with plenty of pictures, and made sure he got multiple walks and lots of playtime. We felt so comfortable knowing he was in great hands. I would definitely recommend her and work with her for our future events.”
“We had SUCH a wonderful experience with Meghan & Sean—and so did our pup! Our 3yo dog is nervous around new people and can be reactive. We were worried about how she would do staying with a family with young kids. Meghan & Sean listed to our worries and helped up brainstorm ways to put our dog at ease. And it worked like a charm! We were so grateful to the extra time Meghan & Sean spent to make both the humans and the doggo feel positive about the plan. We loved getting pics of the crew on their daily walks. It was also really really REALLY nice to see how much love Meghan and fam have for all animals, and how positive they were about our sometimes tricky dog. Our dog had a great week and we will definitely return to Meghan & Sean for future doggy needs, whether it is another week or a shorter visit. Highly recommend, zero notes!”
“Our dog, Joule, had a great time at Diana’s! The whole family was extremely accommodating and knowledgeable about how to handle a high energy and attention seeking pup. She got along great with the other dogs and if we are back in the area, this would be our first choice for a rover!”
About: I have a genuine love for animals and have cared for a variety over the years, from my own 16 year old Shiba Inu (she passed just last May) and 1 year old Maine Coon, to my friends and families pets, including farm animals! From dogs and cats to birds and more, I provide tailored care, including administering medications and meeting dietary needs. Based in New York, I'm available to serve clients in the city and surrounding areas, although I am open to traveling. Whether it's a short trip or an extended vacation, I can accommodate your needs and provide a stress-free experience. I am a working creative in the process of developing my own consulting business. I have worked in the art department for fashion, design and film companies for over 10 years and am just now taking this opportunity to travel to places I’ve never been while enjoying a slower way of life. Trust is paramount, and I take it seriously. Your home and belongings will be treated with the utmost respect and care, giving you peace of mind while you're away. With me as your trusted sitter, you can stay connected with regular updates and adorable photos of your pets. I'm always available to address any questions or concerns you may have. Clear communication is key to a great house sitting experience.
“Peter was such a wonderful sitter. His updates were timely and detailed and I felt confident that Nutmeg was cared for, happy, and healthy during her stay. I will definitely ask Peter to sit again if I’m ever in the area again.”
“We had a great experience with our Lauren. She took excellent care of my dog while I were away for the week. Communication was consistent and reassuring, with regular updates and photos.”
“Franny and her husband were absolutely wonderful!! They took extra great care of our pup! I highly recommend. It was soo convenient being right down the road from camp Pontiac, where we attended a wedding.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs with Cipriana. She's knowledgeable, caring and responsible. It was nice that she contacted me to let me know how the dogs were getting along with her dogs and sent pictures as well. I will definitely use her services again.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. My first job was as an Animal Care Technician with the Humane Society, and I later worked at a military veterinary clinic for more than five years. Caring for animals isn’t just a job for me, it’s something I’ve been passionate about since childhood. I’ve always had pets of my own and have rescued many animals over the years. To me, pets are family, not just animals. When your pet stays with me, my home becomes their home. I’ll follow and reinforce your training and household rules, while also making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I tailor their care to their individual personality and energy level. I currently work full-time. But not too far from my job. So I can always come home to let pets out if need be. I will be available to give them all the attention in the afternoon and on the weekends with the help of my kids who just adore any animal. I have a fenced in yard with one dog and one cat to keep your pet company. I can also crate your pet if needed.

“Lori is a very responsible, caring, and loving pet-care professional! Our cat, Eartha, took to her immediately. Lori is communicative, attentive to detail, and puts her all into her work. Recommend her very highly!”
“Sarah is simply the best. I've never been away from my cat for more than a few days at a time, but knowing Sarah would take such good care of her (feeding, playing, cuddling), and be so communicative with me gave me such peace of mind while I was away for 11 days. I cannot recommend her more highly!”
About: We have a beloved Cat named Chocolate, my daughters named her Chocolate because they “really love Chocolate”! I also have 2 small senior dogs that get along with cats. I have never met an animal that I don’t like…dog, cat, farm animal or wild animal. They all are special and a pet is absolutely a family member. I whole heartedly understand the love of a pet and promise to treat them as part of my family while they’re in my care.
“Jared has taken care of my 3 cats and home twice now and handled some mishaps with grace. He is communicative when questions arise and leaves the guest cottage in stellar condition!”
About: Hello! I've been an animal lover my entire life. My dog, Zeke and I had a companion kind of relationship, built on mutual respect and happiness; it's something I wouldn't have traded for the world. He sadly passed away in October 2025 after 12 years together, so it would be an understatement to say I'm more than happy to pour extra love to your pup. Times are tough; starting a new 'negotiations and bartering' acceptance. Reach out, the worst I can say is no! Partial payment in veggies, meat, mechanic work...etc. Community care✨ ___________________________________________________________________________ This is a new offering as of August 2024. I have discovered that adventures are my ideal experiences and would like to advertise as such! Mountain hikes, kayak paddles (>15 pounds) are my favorites, but I am open to other ideas/training requests! Paddleboarding, swimming lessons...the possibilities are endless. One hour minimum is preferred; gas and travel time to the adventure site are included. I have many mountains, lakes and trails on my list, so I do not see it as fair to charge you for that time! You will only be charged for adventure time. Depending on your pup(s) comfortability in the car, we may travel up to 45 minutes. You and I will decide together on location details, and this app will track where your pup(s) and I are at all times. Wilderness First Aid trained, canine safety versed, ample water provided, and pups will always be kept safely on the leash. Your pup will return home satisfied and tired! ____________________________________________________________________________ For a NORMAL NEIGHBORHOOD WALK, please book a drop-in visit and message to remind me that you would like a walk. Availability for walks and drop-ins will change after Labor Day. Unavailable most weekdays 8-3:30, I am a caretaker by nature, and have been a teacher for the past 4years, a live in nanny before that and most recently a grade school teacher. I'm going back to school to get my licensure. Honestly, care taking and fresh air gives me clarity of mind, and the chance to peel away from the screen helps process all the new information! I am trying to practice running again too, if your canine would like to train with me. Familiar with many local trails and parks. All weather is good weather! Experience with dogs with seizures and giving various medications. Feline friend as well. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friends ! I work at a school, but often have days and weeks off. Feel free to request and negotiate for what you need. Finding a good fit is paramount. I offer boarding very rarely. When I am in your home, I try to leave it better than I found it. I have spent a fair amount of time farming and gardening, so plants will be well cared for if asked.
“Dakota is a lovely and attentive caregiver. My older lady cat needs a daily visit and Dakota was thoughtful and great in her communication. Odie was much more happy and relaxed when I returned. Will definitely work with Dakota again!”
About: I had a dog in my family for around 10 years. He was really the best. It was so fun to watch him grow up and take care of him through it all. I absolutely adore animals and love to give them attention, play with them and learn with them. I work full time but have different hours and sometimes will be available in the mornings, sometimes the middle of the day, and sometimes weekends! I will always have time for animals. I provide a safe and comforting environment for dogs and humans alike. I am very considerate and observant of everything around me so I will always make sure everyone is safe and having a great time with everything they need. I am very respectful of people’s space and always make sure to leave things the way I found them.
About: I have had cats my entire life and have come to the conclusion that they are my favorite animal. I have been told many times that I’m going to end up becoming “the crazy cat lady”, if that says anything! I know how nerve-racking it can be to have to leave your fur baby back home while you are away. I can assure you that they will be getting plenty of love and will be in great hands.

“Sophie took wonderful care of our two kittens while we were away on a long trip. Since it was our first time using a sitter, we were pretty nervous but she was very communicative and attentive which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell that she was going above and beyond to make sure they had lots of love and attention. When we came home, it was clear they had been well cared for—happy, healthy, and content. We’re so grateful and would love for Sophie to watch our girls again sometime.”
“Abigail was the perfect cat sitter. I was so nervous leaving my cats for so long but it turns out, I didn't have to worry at all. She came for a meet and greet, learned all their names, and followed every instruction during the entire two week period. I needed twice a day drop ins for one hour each. She stayed for the entire hour, played with the cats, fed them, pet them, cleaned food bowls, replaced water bowls and cleaned their litter. She took pictures of them every time and by the end, my cats were so comfortable with her. I would hundred percent recommend her if you want a sweet, caring sitter who you can rely on.”

“Diana and her family provided day care to my puppy Jolene and I cannot say enough good things. She is a wonderful and attentive sitter and provided great care. I would definitely recommend her.”
About: I absolutely love animals. I have been helping friends and neighbors with watching their pets for years. I currently have two dogs myself, one with complicated medical needs. I am confident I would be able to care for your pets no matter their age. I currently work from home 2-3 days per week and am available most weekends. I currently have two dogs ourself and their needs are part of my daily life. I have a fenced in backyard. I live in a dead-end street near the rail trail so walks are a breeze and do not have me near any main roads. I do have two Pomeranians to keep your pets company while with us. Both of my dogs are fixed and friendly.
About: I’ve grown up with Chinchillas, Cats, Dogs, Ducks, Chickens, & Reptiles. My Fiancé & I currently have 3 Cats (they love dogs- but if any issues - can be kept separate in their cat room to create a more comfortable stay for any pet that doesn’t like cats), between me & my partner- someone is always home to give attention to & play with pets. (Aside from when we go to the store or doctors appointments). Your pets will get the best care!!! Someone will always be home with your pets, either I am home or when I’m at work my fiancé Deanne is home & is also a huge animal lover. The only times someone isn’t home is when we’re grocery shopping or at an appointment. We have the rail trail right in our backyard that goes for miles- it’s a great trail to take dog walks on! We usually do that or use tie outs or the dogs leashes in our yard since we don’t have a fenced in yard, but your pets are never left unattended on the tie-outs, someone will be outside with them at all times
About: I'll provide constant supervision of your pet. I enjoy interacting with animals. Although I am not a professional dog handler I have had a dog in the house for the past 12 years. I will do my best to provide competent care for your pet. I am currently retired from the Columbia County jail, after completing 23 years. I am a Navy veteran. My wife and I have twin boys who are all grown up and out of the house. As a result of this I have become a little bored. I would appreciate your consideration when deciding on who to entrust the care of your pet while you are away. You will be able to be rest assured that they are being taken care of. I am usually available all the time except for the occasional vacation I might go on. Weekends are no problem either. I am pretty much available year round. I like to hang out with my dog all day. Adding more animals to the mix is no problem. I like taking walks with them and I also have a fenced yard.
“Peter was great with my very energetic pup! He called a day before the appointment to make sure all my preferences are met. Very flexible with the times I requested. Most importantly, I was confident that my puppy was safe and enjoying himself. Peter’s home is dog friendly and he was kind enough to send me a picture of my beloved pup. Would definitely recommend!!”
About: Hi! My name is Andrea and I’ve had dogs since i was 15 years old. I enjoy taking care of them, playing with them, take them to walks, i also feed them or take them to the vet, I love dogs and I’m a reliable person 🫶🏼 *schedule* MONDAY - FRIDAY 9am - 3pm SATURDAY 1pm - 9pm SUNDAY 8am - 9pm I’m currently working part time at the week so on weekdays I’m available from 11pm - 3pm, I’m free from saturday after 1 pm and the whole sunday. MONDAY - FRIDAY 9am - 3pm / 8pm - 10pm SATURDAY 1pm - 9pm SUNDAY 8am - 9pm I’m available to go to the pet’s house to feed them, play with them, take them to walks, i’d rather going to their houses or playing outside.
“5 STAR! ? Just a pleasure. She took me at the last minute. Communicated wonderfully. Sent me pictures and videos. Honestly the best rover experience I’ve had! My dog had a blast and came ready to sleep after a fun filled day.”
About: Since I been born my parents have had dogs and I was luckily able to care for them. I have dog sat for friends and family before and had nothing but a great experience. I work part time and sometimes have soccer practice. I will make time for any responsibilities I need to uphold. If you reach out I will tell u my availability. My care for your dog will not change regarding the location. I care for each dog the same way I have cared for my dogs in the past.
About: My own dogs are always the #1 teacher. They show me how to best care for them - with food, play, training, medications, travel, sleepless days and nights when they've been ill, and giving them all them comfort I can. I've volunteered at dog shelters, spent hours walking dogs in all kinds of weather, and offered comfort to friends who've had to say goodbye to their best fur friends. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets plenty of attention - playing, feeding, and scratching behind the ears. I take my dog for swims in the river, off leash romps in the woods, and leashed walks around town. We also play fetch and tug-of-war in the house or on the deck. If your dog needs a playmate, my dog, Jackson, may be a good fit. My cats - depending on their mood - like to lounge in the sun, pounce on the occasional toy, run up stairs, and hunt for treats I've hidden for them.
About: I have always had a special relationship to animals that is mutually beneficial. I not only bring an infinite amount of love to their lives but they return such energy. I find so much pleasure in forming bonds with animals, even for short periods of time. I love to volunteer and have done so at local SPCAs and even at a zoo in Peru that held practically every type of animal! I myself have owned many cats, raising two since they were kittens. I grew up around dogs as well and they grew to be my best friends through hard times. I even owned a pig and chickens! No matter the species, I would be beyond excited to meet your pet and be a helping hand. I am currently on the job hunt, so I am extremely available. I am free everyday, no matter the time. I have a car as well! I have a litter box and will bring your pet into a cozy environment that can be shifted depending on their needs. If your pet is more social, I have two other roommates who would love to play with them. If your pet is on the more timid side, I have a quiet space that they could relax in.
“With both me and my boyfriend working in healthcare and having crazy schedules, we decided to get a puppy. Then our work schedules got flipped and we were panicking on what to do with little man while we both had to work Christmas Eve and day and 12hr shifts. Then came a Christmas miracle, Kaitlyn and her amazing family watched over little Apollo. I was so nervous as this was my first time using Rover and I was unsure about the legitimacy, but Kaitlyn had great reviews and went above and beyond to make Apollo feel welcomed in her home and. She stuck to his feeding and training plan, tuckered him out with tons of play and made sure to update me with adorable pictures throughout the day! If you have a chance to book with her I would say absolutely do it, I would trust her with a human child!!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats (fish, and rabbits too!) since I was a kid. I’ve had high energy breeds (Boston terriers, I’m looking at you) to a current low energy French bulldog puppy. I love them all! I work Full time but remote and from home! Happy to bring my laptop anywhere I need to be! I can be at your place for an extended time, days or longer! I can watch your pups here and they will be loved on and walked plenty! I treat them like the children that they are! Haha. Listen, I have full blown conversations with my dog, I hope you do as well! I’ll talk to your pet and play with them and treat them like I do my daughter, because they ARE family!

“Greg is the best!! My two dogs can be shy with new people but they instantly warmed up to him and they come back from their walks so happy! He's very punctual and goes the extra mile to make the pups happy!”
“Jessica was fantastic! She took great care of our dog and was conscientious, prompt and communicative. We will happily ask her to take care of Maddox in the future. Thanks Jessica!”
“Our first meeting with Alexis was great! She was on time and professional. She was also very calm, which was great for my heeler Cash - as he’s easily excited. Will be booking some visits soon.”
About: Hi my name is Jessica and I live with my partner Patrick and our two dogs Chickie and Gracie. I have always had pets growing up and have cared for my own dogs for the past 16 years. I have experience with taking care of puppies, elderly and reactive dogs. Currently, I'm freelancing, so I'm mostly home with a flexible schedule. I would love to care for your dog or cat while you’re away!
“Elishamaria was wonderful. She was very friendly, communicative and professional. She made our dog Butters feel very comfortable and happy. We were able to enjoy a little time to ourselves in Hudson. We would definitely book her again the next time we’re in town!”
About: I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and overnight house sitting for cats or dogs, and I’m happy to provide daily exercise, playtime, feeding, and medication support as needed. Whether your pet loves long walks, quiet companionship, or consistent routines, I tailor my care to fit their needs and personality. I grew up with mid-size dogs and frequently watched smaller dogs for family friends in Pittsburgh. After moving upstate, I became a devoted cat dad to my black cat, Lola, for four years. Since then, I’ve cared for cats of all ages, including seniors with specific feeding and medication schedules. I'm attentive and responsive to every animal’s unique rhythm. I currently work remotely as a freelancer, which gives me the flexibility to drop in or house-sit for quality time with your pets during the day. I enjoy staying active and love being outdoors—so your dog will always get a good walk (and a happy walking buddy!). For overnight stays, I treat every home and pet with the respect and care I’d want for my own. I pride myself on being responsible, respectful, and kind—treating every home and animal as if my own. As a freelancer who works remotely, I have a flexible schedule that lets me give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m also available for house sitting and overnights provided there's stable wifi. I am a trustworthy house sitter/ walker who priotizes clear communication on expectations and house standards. I do not offer pet care from my own home.
“Dakota was so good with our 2 dogs. They both have strong pray drives and the walking trails are thru the woods so it can sometimes be challenging to control them. They warmed up so fast to her and their walks together went really well. She always gave detailed reports of the walks and sent photos….I really like that ? She is a pleasure to talk to and she has a large dog of her own which gives her that experience that only dog “owners” have. I will definitely be recommending her to friends.”
“Lori was communicative and very helpful. She clearly knows animals well. We are very particular with our excitable pup and she read all our instructions and sent a lot of great updates. Would absolutely recommend her pet services!”
About: I have loved and cared for animals my whole life. I especially love small dogs and understand that they need the same level of play and mental stimulation as all dogs. I have cared for cats, small animals, and chickens. I am a self employed artist with a flexible schedule. I take my own small dogs out to the local dog park every morning. I enjoy taking dogs out for walks in the nature areas and parks. I have two large fenced gardens at my home and allow my dogs to enjoy off leash time there. I understand that importance of keeping dogs on leash and cats indoors.
“Mary walked my dog Willo (2 years, some puppy energy, 50lb) for three weeks while I was out of town. We had great communication the whole time and Mary was proactive about helping me keep Willo’s paws comfortable in the snow. We had a great experience with her and would book again!”

About: I have been around animals all my life. Born in the country, cows and horses are most common, but I’ve come to love having dogs, cats, and reptiles of my own! There has never been an animal I couldn’t warm up to, and I love getting to know every pets unique personality. I DO OWN PETS, I just am not offering boarding services or requesting sitting services so I would prefer not to share their details! I am always willing to move around my schedule to better fit my clients needs! I have a ride I depend on for now while I’m learning to drive, so I cannot be out too late unless I’m staying the night. I prefer to pet sit or walk pets at other homes, not my own, as I have a reactive dog with history of abuse, and she is not amicable with other pets.
About: I’m a pre-vet major with a love for all animals, especially dogs! I’m 19 years old, a full time student, and have 5 years of dogsitting and dog walking experience! I have a soft spot for older dogs, as well as experience caring for young litters of pups! I walk some of my clients’ dogs in their own backyard trails, and a few I transport to local parks for our walks. I love all of my clients dogs like they’re my own, and take special care to encourage their interests, and adapt our time together to fit their personality and needs! I have 6 repeat clients that I’ve met through rover, and treasure the time that I spend with their pets. The reoccurring clients I’ve had for 8 months have become a staple in my life, and a regular in my routine. It’s so special to be the part of the week that a dog looks forward to!! Booking a few weeks in advance is a good way to ensure I’m able to work around YOUR schedule! I take pride in caring for your pets like they are my own! As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of not only respecting your dog’s boundaries, but also the rules you have for your dog! If you or your pet need to be accommodated in any way I’ll do my best to make it happen!
About: Hi! My name is Andrea. I have lived in the Hudson Valley for almost 4 years now, and have been working in the area off and on since 2014. I live with my partner, Mike, and precious pups Kona and Desi. I have always lived with dogs. I am an Occupational Therapist in a school district full time and love to farm and bicycle during my off time. I’ve done house sitting and dog sitting previously and enjoyed the work. I have my own vehicle and am used to commuting around the Hudson Valley for work and for fun. I wanted to get back into dog sitting and pet sitting to assist in getting a new car and to get to spend time with pets! I have always been obsessed with dogs! I show that through meeting as many as I can when out in the community :). I am active person, so long walks and playing is something I can provide. I am open to any requests you might have and am great at keeping in touch with pet parents. I can always be available through text, call, or email. I’m so excited to meet you and your lovely pets!! I have a full time job, so weekends are my only availability. However, I am open to discuss any special circumstances! I might potentially be more available on a long weekend, when I am off from my school based job. I would want to care for your pets as you would or how you would want. I am great with a schedule and specific requests.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. We have a 2 year old golden puppy who is treated as if she’s part of the family. She is soo loved and so spoiled. I also worked at a groomers shop so I have a lot of experience with different dogs. I am currently working part time and attending short days at college four days a week. I have a lot of free time though and especially on my weekends I have a lot of time At home my dog has a perimeter collar so she is free to wander about our yard as she wishes. When I am dog sitting I always have the dog on a leash and I stay outside with them the entire time they are outside

“Candice was amazing and Barry absolutely adored her and her kids! he had a great time there and came home so happy! 10/10 would recommend and will def be going back!”
“Mary and Todd are the absolute best dog sitters! Their great care for our dog Toby gives us a lot of peace of mind. We know he is having a great time — it shows in the photos that Mary sends to us throughout his stay.”
“Saskia was absolutely fantastic! She took such wonderful care of our two energetic dogs and our energetic cat, and we couldn't have been happier. She truly went above and beyond, staying in constant communication with us the whole time we were away and sending photos and updates that really put our minds at ease. She put an incredible amount of heart into caring for our pets—she easily gave one hundred and fifty to two hundred percent—and her response time was incredibly fast.”
“Highly recommend! Taylor took wonderful care of my dog. I would absolutely use her again- she was communicative, and I felt very comfortable having my dog in her hands.”
“Garrett & Deanne were really great! Ruby seemed to have a great time with them. They kept me updated on how she was doing (especially with the fireworks over July 4th). I'll definitely be having them watch my girl in the future!”
“Amanda watched our 2 year old Shepherd mix, Sid, one night when we needed a calm dinner out, and we couldn't have made a better decision. Her fenced in yard was a dream for our dog, and she was super accommodating and responsive with our day of request and quick meet and greet. She sent us plenty of pictures of Sid smiling and romping around, we will definitely be booking with Amanda again!”
“Sophie was amazing with our furry baby, Fancy! She kept us updated throughout the boarding with plenty of pictures, and made sure he got multiple walks and lots of playtime. We felt so comfortable knowing he was in great hands. I would definitely recommend her and work with her for our future events.”
“We had SUCH a wonderful experience with Meghan & Sean—and so did our pup! Our 3yo dog is nervous around new people and can be reactive. We were worried about how she would do staying with a family with young kids. Meghan & Sean listed to our worries and helped up brainstorm ways to put our dog at ease. And it worked like a charm! We were so grateful to the extra time Meghan & Sean spent to make both the humans and the doggo feel positive about the plan. We loved getting pics of the crew on their daily walks. It was also really really REALLY nice to see how much love Meghan and fam have for all animals, and how positive they were about our sometimes tricky dog. Our dog had a great week and we will definitely return to Meghan & Sean for future doggy needs, whether it is another week or a shorter visit. Highly recommend, zero notes!”
“Our dog, Joule, had a great time at Diana’s! The whole family was extremely accommodating and knowledgeable about how to handle a high energy and attention seeking pup. She got along great with the other dogs and if we are back in the area, this would be our first choice for a rover!”
About: I have a genuine love for animals and have cared for a variety over the years, from my own 16 year old Shiba Inu (she passed just last May) and 1 year old Maine Coon, to my friends and families pets, including farm animals! From dogs and cats to birds and more, I provide tailored care, including administering medications and meeting dietary needs. Based in New York, I'm available to serve clients in the city and surrounding areas, although I am open to traveling. Whether it's a short trip or an extended vacation, I can accommodate your needs and provide a stress-free experience. I am a working creative in the process of developing my own consulting business. I have worked in the art department for fashion, design and film companies for over 10 years and am just now taking this opportunity to travel to places I’ve never been while enjoying a slower way of life. Trust is paramount, and I take it seriously. Your home and belongings will be treated with the utmost respect and care, giving you peace of mind while you're away. With me as your trusted sitter, you can stay connected with regular updates and adorable photos of your pets. I'm always available to address any questions or concerns you may have. Clear communication is key to a great house sitting experience.
“Peter was such a wonderful sitter. His updates were timely and detailed and I felt confident that Nutmeg was cared for, happy, and healthy during her stay. I will definitely ask Peter to sit again if I’m ever in the area again.”
“We had a great experience with our Lauren. She took excellent care of my dog while I were away for the week. Communication was consistent and reassuring, with regular updates and photos.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs with Cipriana. She's knowledgeable, caring and responsible. It was nice that she contacted me to let me know how the dogs were getting along with her dogs and sent pictures as well. I will definitely use her services again.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. My first job was as an Animal Care Technician with the Humane Society, and I later worked at a military veterinary clinic for more than five years. Caring for animals isn’t just a job for me, it’s something I’ve been passionate about since childhood. I’ve always had pets of my own and have rescued many animals over the years. To me, pets are family, not just animals. When your pet stays with me, my home becomes their home. I’ll follow and reinforce your training and household rules, while also making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I tailor their care to their individual personality and energy level. I currently work full-time. But not too far from my job. So I can always come home to let pets out if need be. I will be available to give them all the attention in the afternoon and on the weekends with the help of my kids who just adore any animal. I have a fenced in yard with one dog and one cat to keep your pet company. I can also crate your pet if needed.
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She helped us out when we were in a pinch and needed dog sitting for a weekend with only one days notice! We had never had Lucy boarded anywhere before and we were a bit nervous about the process, but it went so smoothly! She sent pictures to reassure my kiddos she was being well taken care of! I would definitely recommend her services and will be using her again for dog sitting in the future!”
“Jane is an amazing doggie caregiver. She clearly adores the canines and is kind and gentle with them. Her home is clean and set up to accommodate her guests. Her communication is prompt and she keeps You in the loop with pictures and videos. We are so glad we found Jane and will use her again.”
