“Jennifer was amazing, incredibly patient and met with us before we boarded our son with her. She provided so many updates and addressed all of our needs and special requests with Ludo, and we would not hesitate to book her again. She truly worked to get to know Ludo to give him the best care possible.”
“Michelle is fantastic! She checked in with me multiple times each day and sent pictures and videos whenever possible. She was responsive when I sent messages and questions. My pups were well taken care of.”
“Thank you for taking such great care of my big guy! It is always easier leaving knowing he’s in good hands. I appreciated the regular updates and photos. Will be requesting to stay with Nick again in the future.”
“Denise was very pleasant to work with. She accommodates the drop off and pick up as well as communicates well while taking care of the pet. Would love to use her services again.”
“Jordan is pleasant and responsive. Latke was returned happy and healthy. He let me know that he had another booking that would overlap mine, which turned out OK but would have been an issue if the dogs didn’t get along. His apartment is small and it would have been difficult to keep the dogs separated. Also I would have appreciated more photos, especially on the first day with the other dog. He responded promptly with pictures when prompted. Overall, I would recommend him.”
“Vanessa and her family took care of Hampton as though he were their own. The updates including photos and videos made myself and family feel extremely comfortable. I would highly recommend their service.”
“If you want your pup to feel like they're at a home away from home - book with Tina. She and her family (two young children who will entertain your dog endlessly) will provide a loving environment with lots of play and attention. I boarded my 7 year old pit mix for several days and he felt right at home immediately. Tina was great sharing photos and videos of Lincoln playing in the fenced in back and taking lots of walks (I think he thought twice about coming back home :)). So happy I found her.”
“Sadie had the very best time with Delmy & family! They sent pictures/videos the entire time and Sadie was so happy in all of them. 10/10 would recommend and I will be using them again”
“Michelle was in touch often, both before and during Roxie’s stay. She sent photos of Roxie, which we appreciated. Michelle and her husband provided a nurturing environment and helped Roxie adjust and get comfortable in her new surroundings. We’re very pleased with Roxie’s experience and plan to use Michelle again.”
“What a lovely family. They took such wonderful care of my Blossom. Diana sent me photos throughout Blossom’s stay that left me feeling like I made a good decision leaving her with them. Thank you so much. I know who to call for my next vacation.”
“Michele and her family were absolutely amazing with my dog, Virgo! From start to finish, they showed so much love, patience, and care. They made him feel right at home and treated him like part of their family. Michele kept me updated with messages and adorable photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. When Virgo came home, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I can’t recommend Michele and her family enough we will definitely be booking with them again!”

“Danielle was amazing and I'd highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. I was extremely nervous leaving my German shepherd for a week (the most she'd been away from me was 2 days) knowing that she'd have separation anxiety. Danielle sent me pictures everyday of my pup playing with her own dog and I felt better knowing they were having fun. When I went to pick up my dog, it was as if she didn't want to leave! She was so comfortable and happy, and I could tell by the way she interacted with Danielle and her family. I will definitely use Danielle again next time I'm going on vacation!”
“We loved Vanessa, Storm and family! She was quick to respond, Sent plenty of pictures and videos and was very accommodating. Chance had such a good time, to the point we were worried he wouldn’t want to come home. We will gladly use Vanessa again!”
“Caroline was amazing with our pup! Not only was she able to fit us in last minute when we were in a pinch, but she made my pup feel so at home in her home while we were out of town. Not having to worry about your pup while you’re out of town because you know they are being cared for and loved by someone makes it so much easier to go away.”
“I was in need of a last minute dog sitter because I was going out of town -- I read Marcelina's profile and felt she would be a good fit, I messaged her and got a reply almost instantly! We did a meet and greet prior to her sitting my 2 dogs, and all I can say is WOW-- she was perfect! Marcelina is warm, loving, intentional and overall a wonderful person. My dogs took a liking to her immediately. I felt no worries leaving town, I knew they were in good hands. During my leave, she updated me with photos and videos of their adventures-- she of course spoiled them with a good time :) I will be using Marcelina in the future. I cannot recommend her enough if you need someone to care for your animals.”
“Linda was great with Chase! He felt right at home with her from the very first minute he was in her home. She sent me updates and photos and even let him sleep in her bed when he was barking at night. Her daughter was there and was also wonderful with him. Definitely will use her again!”

“Erin took excellent care of my cats while I was away. She sent me daily pictures and updates, played with the kitties, refilled their water, and cleaned their litterboxes. My cats absolutely love her! She’s reliable and communicates well. I highly recommend her!”
“Elizabeth first watched our cat, Faye, back in 2019. We ended up moving out of the area and were so bummed since Faye was really comfortable with her, despite being a pretty shy and stand-offish cat. We recently moved back and were thrilled to see Elizabeth was still on Rover! We booked her for 3-days of drop in visits for Faye and Ursula (our newest addition), and she was just as amazing as we remembered. She was extremely communicative, was not afraid to ask questions if she was unsure of something, and provided plenty of pictures and videos. We came back to 2 very happy kitties. We’re so thrilled that there are people like Elizabeth out there who care for our pets like we do, and would highly recommend her services to anyone.”
“I really appreciated her attention to details and detailed Rover cards with pictures after each visit. She took her time to do a meet and great which gave me so much reassurance leaving my cat (my baby) behind. Definitely will love to have her again!”
About: I cared for my friends and neighbors' cats when they were away. They trust me. Aside from being a cat person, I am also a teacher, which makes me look more reliable (hopefully lol).

About: I have owned pets since I was 4 years old. I have worked in the veterinary field since I was sixteen and am starting my 2nd year of veterinary school at Long Island University.

About: I love cats! Professionally, I cared for cats as a kennel technician at a veterinary hospital — cleaning cages, feeding and watering, giving oral and topical medications, holding them for exams, and charting daily. I've also cat sat for friends and family for years, including overnight stays. I know every cat has their own personality and needs, with varying comfort levels around strangers. I'm happy to figure out what works best for them and your family to provide them the care they need!
“Michelle was great with Slater. She is a true animal lover, very caring. She is considerate, professional and clean. I would recommend her to anyone. Your pet will love her. I will def use her care again in the future. 5 stars. 👍”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for four cats, including feeding both wet and dry food, cleaning and maintaining litter boxes, and keeping their spaces clean and comfortable. Beyond their basic needs, I make sure each cat receives plenty of love, attention, playtime, and companionship while respecting their individual personality and boundaries. I understand that cats can have very different routines and comfort levels, so I’m patient and attentive to their cues to help them feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away.
“Lily has been watching our pups and house sitting for us for the last year and we are so lucky to have her! She takes amazing care of our three pups (a very shy and particular husky, a golden, and a super high energy Dutch shepherd). She manages each pups personality beautifully and all three love her, which is a big deal considering our girl dog is very particular with who she lets care for her! We never have to worry when we go away because we know that the dogs love Lily and she has a ton of experience to manage all of the different breeds and their needs! She also takes amazing care of our home and our fish while she’s here! We can’t recommend Lily highly enough!”

“Jenn and her husband took a good care of my dog, and my dog was very relaxed and comfortable in their house. I feel so happy that my dog find a nice sitter and ideal place to stay while I am away. Thank you very much, Jenn! 🥰”
“My two German Shepherds, Snow and Magnum returned today from a two day stay with Loraine B. and her lovely family. My dogs do not always easily adjust to new surroundings. This time that was not the case. Both Snow and Magnum settled right in to Loraine's home and they were very comfortable with her attentive care. Don't think twice if you are looking for a loving place for your pets... they are in good hands with Loraine and her family. Just make sure to leave room for Snow and Magnum as they will be back with Loraine when next we need to be away. Thank you very much for the wonderful care!!”

If not, no worries—he knows the routine and will happily stay separate.
“Sarah and her lovely family took care of our little Yorkie for five days while my husband and I were visiting in New York City. We were staying out on Long Island, and had event tickets each day in the city, so we needed flexible doggie day care hours to accommodate our needs. We felt so very blessed to find Sarah! She welcomed Violet into her home and treated her like family. She is very well equipped to care for any pets and has plenty of equipment and facilities thoughtfully laid out in her home and yard. She has thought of everything her guests could possible need! She kept us very well informed throughout the visit so I didn’t have to worry and wonder about our baby one bit. She obviously loves animals and treated our sweet girl like her very own. Violet was so happy to get there each day and loved playing with all the people and pets in Sarah’s household. I have only ever used day care services on Rover and really couldn’t imagine boarding our fur baby with someone other than a family member, but I wouldn’t hesitate to leave her at Sarah’s! I know I would get professional care, steady communication, and the most loving environment! I cannot recommend her more highly!”
“Liying was wonderful! She accommodated Freddie on very short notice while I was at work and was communicative, active, and incredibly attentive to Freddie’s needs. I felt completely comfortable knowing Freddie was in great hands. Highly recommend!”
“Michelle was so lovely, she looked after my two pups for the day and it looked like they had the best time. She sent lots of pictures too! Would absolutely trust her with my dogs in the future.”

My house is not fenced but I walk the dogs on a leash early in the morning and mid-afternoon, never had any problems, bathroom breaks usually on my back yard every 2-3 hours
“My dog MoMo is afraid of other dogs, but loves people very much. I truly appreciated the lady Kajal’s professional knowledge in taking care of MoMo’s individual personality by separating MoMo and her own lovely puppy Sunny, after her effort to try to make two dogs get along with each other. During MoMo’s playdate, Kajal kept me informed by sending several pictures and videos, and many texts to update MoMo’s current situation. Kajal is very sweet, responsive, reliable and trustworthy. Her whole family members love dogs very much which make me feel even more comfortable. Thanks Rover to let me know such a professional lady who can take care of my dog when I am away, and make my dog feel like home away home.”
“I fear words pale in describing how fantastic Kayla and her family are! Todd simply did not want to leave, and she is wonderfully communicative, thoughtful, and patient. In short, she and her family are magnificent!”

I also spent a year working at a family-owned pet store that specialized in dogs, cats, and exotic animals, giving me hands-on experience with daily animal care and pet wellness. My goal is to provide every pet with a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while giving pet parents peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. Since I also drive, I’m able to reliably travel to visits, walks, and drop-ins. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to each week. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I believe pets feel happiest in their own home, so I take the time to learn their schedule, feeding routine, exercise needs, and any special instructions before each visit. I always ensure doors, gates, and harnesses are secure, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and playtime, and treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve always had a dog since I was little and I love dogs. Neighbors and family rely on me at times to watch and walk their dogs. I am a teacher and I have the summers off. I used to have dogs but now it’s just me and my almost 4 year old son. My son goes to daycare and I would love nothing more than to care for your pet. I have a fenced in yard and I love to go for walks. I have the whole day to entertain and keep your pet happy.
“Thank you Nick for taking such good care of our Ginger while we were away on vacation. My husband and I really appreciate it. We’ll have to book some more walks…Ginger misses you already!”
About: I am based in Oyster Bay and am a retired teacher with six years of experience running my dog care business. I have had animals my entire life, ranging from a 3-pound teacup Chihuahua to a Great Dane, as well as cats, horses, and goats. This past summer, I rescued my sweet girl, Aruba...yes, we found her in Aruba :) She is wonderful with all of the dogs who stay with us. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and carefully maintain each pet’s established routine, including precise feeding schedules, medication administration, and appropriate daily exercise. When your dog stays with me, they immediately become part of our family. They are welcome throughout the home and may even sleep with us. During warmer months, I take the dogs to the beach for long, beautiful walks. I am available seven days a week and am always home. My two adult daughters, ages 24 and 22, also assist, ensuring your dog is never left alone. Services offered include daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and overnight care in your home when available. After all, doesn’t your dog deserve a vacation too? I am home majority of time except for the occasional errands etc. If I am not home I have 2 older daughters who help me keep the dogs company. My home is 100% smoke free! I have a fully fenced yard for the dogs to stay in so they can get some fresh air & play with their friends.

About: Hi! I'm a wildlife biologist, and I've spent most of my life taking care of animals — in a veterinary setting, on wildlife conservation projects, and growing up in my own home with my family pets. I work as a full-time biologist during the spring/summer, and will have open availability over the fall, winter, and spring to help with your pet care needs! I started out as a kennel technician at a veterinary hospital, where my days were cleaning dog kennels and cat cages, feeding and watering, walking dogs, giving oral and topical medications, holding animals for exams, and keeping daily records on everyone in our care. This job is where I learned how to understand an animal’s body language, and how to adjust my own to make sure they feel safe. Since then I've graduated from university and have worked as a field biologist for state and federal agencies, most recently monitoring endangered shorebirds at Jones Beach State Park here on Long Island. Along the way I provided daily care and feeding for state-owned horses in Oregon, and I've handled, banded, and released wild birds across four different groups — songbirds, raptors, waterfowl, and doves. If you have a bird and you get nervous about leaving them, let’s chat. I’d be happy to care for any feathered family members! At home I've kept lizards, snakes, birds, and aquariums of my own, so I'm comfortable with things like heat gradients and UVB, humidity, feeding schedules that aren't daily, and water parameters and filtration. What I offer: • Dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight stays in your home • Cats, including shy ones and multi-cat households • Medication administration, oral and topical • Senior pets and pets with medical needs genuinely welcome • Birds, reptiles, and aquariums • Photos and a real update after every visit • CPR and First Aid certified I’m always happy to do a free meet-and-greet first. I'd love to meet you and your crew! Currently, I have open availability from 10 am - 9 pm 7 days a week for drop ins and walks. For overnight stays, I am available anytime with 1-2 days notice. Before the first visit I do a free meet-and-greet. I want to see where everything lives — food, leash, litter, carrier, cleaning supplies — and I write the routine down rather than trusting my memory: feeding times and amounts, medications, which treats are allowed, how your dog behaves on a walk, and anything that frightens them. I also want your vet's name and number and a backup contact before I'm ever in the house alone. The thing I'm most careful about is doors. I come and go deliberately, I know where every animal is before I open anything, and I never leave a door propped. Dogs stay leashed the entire time they're outside with me, with no off-leash exceptions unless you've asked for it specifically. I give Medication exactly as written, at the time you've specified, and I confirm each dose with you. I don't adjust a dose or skip one because an animal is being difficult — I'll message you instead. Following written protocols precisely is most of what my professional work has been, in a veterinary hospital and in the field, and I treat your instructions the same way. I pay attention and I report: appetite, water, litter box or bathroom habits, energy, and anything that looks off. If something seems wrong I'll contact you right away. If it looks like an emergency and I can't reach you, I'll get your pet to your vet or the nearest emergency clinic and keep calling. And I look after the house. I clean up after your pet and after myself, I keep your keys and door codes private, I don't bring anyone with me, and I leave the place better than I found it. You'll get photos and a short real update after every visit. I also welcome any feedback, as that helps me do a better job in the future!

“Jennifer was amazing, incredibly patient and met with us before we boarded our son with her. She provided so many updates and addressed all of our needs and special requests with Ludo, and we would not hesitate to book her again. She truly worked to get to know Ludo to give him the best care possible.”
“Thank you for taking such great care of my big guy! It is always easier leaving knowing he’s in good hands. I appreciated the regular updates and photos. Will be requesting to stay with Nick again in the future.”
“Vanessa and her family took care of Hampton as though he were their own. The updates including photos and videos made myself and family feel extremely comfortable. I would highly recommend their service.”
“If you want your pup to feel like they're at a home away from home - book with Tina. She and her family (two young children who will entertain your dog endlessly) will provide a loving environment with lots of play and attention. I boarded my 7 year old pit mix for several days and he felt right at home immediately. Tina was great sharing photos and videos of Lincoln playing in the fenced in back and taking lots of walks (I think he thought twice about coming back home :)). So happy I found her.”
“Tanu was wonderful with Yogi! 🐾 She was so accommodating, caring, and attentive, and Yogi clearly had such a great time with her. I also really appreciated all the pictures and videos she sent, it was so reassuring to see him happy and having fun. We would definitely book with Tanu again! ❤️”
“I love Sharon and her family! They take such great care of Barry every time! She sends tons of pictures, updating us on our dog. Our dog loves going to their house and playing with their dog and their son.”
“Britany is amazing! This was our second time leaving Frodo with her, this time for a full week, and she went above and beyond. She sent us daily updates with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. If she had any concerns, she brought them up right away and was always very transparent. When we dropped Frodo off, we could tell how happy he was to be there - he didn’t even look back at us lol! Britany really knows his personality and quirks now, and it’s clear he feels comfortable and cared for with her. Couldn’t ask for a better sitter!”
“Caroline was amazing with our pup! Not only was she able to fit us in last minute when we were in a pinch, but she made my pup feel so at home in her home while we were out of town. Not having to worry about your pup while you’re out of town because you know they are being cared for and loved by someone makes it so much easier to go away.”
“We had a unique situation that lead us to Eric and he was incredibly accommodating. I forgot my dog's bed and he was able to provide one. He took great care of our shepherd and sent us several photos to show us our dog was doing just fine. Eric is a super nice guy to boot! Would highly recommend!”
“Look nor more!! KAYLA and her wonderful family provided a secure, loving environment for our mother and son golden retriever duo!! Their young children were very sweet and loving to our pups, and Kayla was kind enough to text me pictures throughout their stay. The kids made it so much easier to leave them for the very first time! We would request Kayla and family again if we are ever in need. They have gained our trust!!”
“Liam was great. Talked and met before Mabel’s first stay. Clearly communicated and shared photos throughout and Mabel was happy when we got back. Would be happy to have her stay there again with him”
“William and his family have been amazing. I received updates and pictures every day I was away from my pitty and will absolutely be sending her back in the future. Thanks again William!”
About: Neighbors and family have relied on me to care for their pets, including elderly and special needs animals, as well as exotic reptiles and birds, many times. I’m a part-time student in eco-toxicology at this time studying online so I’m around full time for pet care, feel free to reach out for care any day of the week! I live with my large family, and my roommates have two dogs and two cats, all of which are friendly. We have two spare crates for visitors so let me know if your dog is crate trained! Please keep in mind that my partner joins me for house sitting bookings. We have two cats together and he is also certified by Rover :)
“Kierra went above and beyond to make us feel safe leaving a hope alone with a Rover for the first time. She communicated effectively during every visit, took excellent photos, and took time to really provide Hope with the care and love we wanted. She played and sang to Hope, as well as kept her food and water clean and full. We told her she didn’t need to do the litter every day, but she did anyway. Kierra was respectful of the apartment complex and timely with returning our key. Heart of gold and a friend of animals indeed. She even helped us with extending booking (when we messed up 5 times), We couldn’t have had a better experience or human to take care of Hope (who is a rescue cat but had no issues warming up to kierra)”
“Judy was wonderful, she sent me regular updates and pictures of my dog. Also, my dog is very nervous and skidish and she did a great job making him as comfortable as possible. I will definitely be using her again.”
