“Denis and his wife are so sweet and took great care of our dog while we were at a concert at Forest Hills stadium. Would 100% use them again. Close to the R train!”
“It was my first time leaving Cotton with a sitter after a couple of years so I was not sure if he will adjust to being in a foreign environment with strangers however after the first update and pictures I could see that Margarita is a friendly and caring sitter and he was at ease. I received frequent updates and pictures as details on how he was behaving. I will highly recommend Margarita & Christian when considering to leave your furry friend they will be in a safe environment and will be well taken care of. Communication from beginning to end was great and I will definitely use their service in the future.”

“David was amazing! Communication was consistent and adorable and I really felt like Roman was welcomed into his family. He was amazingly chill when I picked him up, not straining to get to me like he usually is, which I think says it all about the excellent care he received at David’s home. I would recommend him to anyone!”
“This was my second time booking with her, and once again, she was amazing! She took such great care of my pet and gave me daily updates along with pictures, which I really appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing my pet was in such loving hands. She’s reliable, communicative, and truly cares. I’ll definitely be booking with her again—highly recommend!”

They kept me updated throughout the stay with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that my dog was comfortable, well cared for, and received plenty of attention and affection. They were reliable, communicative, and treated my pet like one of their own. I came home to a happy, relaxed dog, which says everything about the quality of care they provided. I highly recommend Bruno and Victoria to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate pet sitters. I would definitely book with them again. Thank you both for taking such great care of my furry family member!”

“Sam was great with Milo! Sent photos and was communicative about pickup and drop off. He came back happy and healthy and we will be working with Sam again soon!!”
“Peggy and Anthony went above and beyond to make us comfortable and to take care of our dog. The first time I met them I could tell they were kind hearted and loved caring for dogs beyond doing it as a job. They updated us often, gave him lots of attention. We came home from a week’s trip and as excited as Toast was to be with us I swear he missed them the next day! We absolutely recommend Peggy and Anthony and they will be the first sitters we call if we need more dog sitting.”

“I've booked Kristin a few times, and she has always been very kind and helpful, especially with the special accommodations that my cat needs. I feel she provided a good environment for boarding my cat. In particular, I appreciate her being very helpful and communicative after my cat had a medical episode and needed to be taken to the ER. Her care made a difficult moment easier to go through.”
“Melanie and Veronica are awesome! They helped me feel at ease as a first-time Rover user. They took excellent care of my cat, and got some really cute pictures of him for the daily check-ins! Definitely recommend.”
“Catalina was amazing! My cat Louie really enjoyed her company. She was responsive and punctual with her visits. I felt very comfortable with our first meet & greet, her energy and love for animals radiates in the kind care she was able to provide for my old man. 100/10 would book again!”
“She went above and beyond! Our shy baby normally hides from everyone who isn't us, but Xiaoying was able to charm her and even get us pictures when we were completely expecting a successfully evasive Luna. Gave us great updates, would absolutely hire again. Thank you thank you thank you!”
“Tedy was absolutely exceptional at house and cat sitting during my first trip in several years. Both cats instantly fell in love with her, she kept my home tidy, and really made me feel safe and assured knowing they were safe and loved in her hands. Tedy is now a friend and the sitter I will rely on forever, she’s amazing.”
“Thoselin was amazing! We thought our cat would be shy or scared, but Thoselin made her feel safe and our cat warmed up to her quickly! She sent us pictures and was easy to communicate with. Five stars!!”
“1,000/10 recommend! I was moving and last minute thought it would be best to board my cat, Paris, so she didn’t freak out during this whole process… Anna responded quickly and made herself available about an hour later. She sent pics and responded to my check-in’s promptly. I was very much at ease. She’s also very nice and friendly! I recommend!”
“As soon as I met Qilin, I knew that I was making the right choice. It was a relief to know that my cat, Fortunato, was in good hands while I was away for nearly a week during Christmas. Qilin also is familiar with administering pills, and again, I was relieved to know that Fortunato was getting his medication during my absence. Qilin is reliable and trustworthy, and I would definitely use her again as my pet sitter.”
About: Hi, I’m Angela! I have a deep love for dogs and plenty of experience caring for them. I’m here to lend a helping hand when you can’t be with your furry friend. With me and my sisters taking care of your pup, they’ll never be alone—there’s always someone home to give them love and attention. I have a sweet Toy Australian Shepherd named Riley, who would love to make new friends! Your pups are more than welcome to stay with us while you're out of town. Rest assured, they’ll receive plenty of affection and playtime. I can’t wait to meet your furry companions! I’m currently working from home which means I’ll have plenty of time to play with your beloved furry friends! I also have two sisters at home who are just as experienced as I am! ( Your furry friends will never be home alone!) If I’m not free my sisters will be free, there will always be someone at home! I have a very playful toy Aussie named Riley and she’ll happily keep your furry friends company. I have plenty of toys and treats to offer too ( Riley loves sharing!) There is plenty of space for your furry friends to run around / chill.
“Isabel was great in the meet and greet, actually asked for more toys to get Alphonse familiar and happy. Got lots of photos like I wanted and was very communicative. Will rebook again!”
About: I’ve owned cats my entire life. My little girl is 14 years old and needy! I’ve watched cats and I always make sure they’re fed, given fresh water, their litter box is done, and they’re always given lots of love!
About: I've spent years walking dogs and have also looked after friends' pups during trips, so I know how to read a dog and keep them comfortable in any situation. I always come prepared with water and treats, and I pay close attention to each dog's energy and limits. If a smaller dog needs to cool down and rest in the shade, that's exactly what we do. I'm starting law school in August, so this summer I'm wide open and looking to spend as much time outside as possible — your dog is the perfect excuse. Once classes begin, walking dogs is honestly my ideal way to decompress between sessions. Whether it's a long summer morning walk or a midday break from studying, I'll always show up ready to go. I don't offer in-home sitting, but safety on the walk is something I take seriously. If we pass another dog, I always move to the side, cross the street, or pick up smaller dogs if needed — whatever keeps your pup comfortable and out of a situation they didn't ask for.

“Ana was incredibly sweet with our Boston Terrier puppy who experienced his first time away from us with her. She sent lots of pictures and gave frequent updates. Highly recommended!”
“Juliana watched our precious pup Winston for the day while we went to the US open (she is located right by the stadiums and had phenomenal reviews). She did not disappoint! She was very attentive to Winston and patient with him as he can be quite shy at first. He had a very good experience and I’m glad we left him in good hands.”
“So grateful for them. I was extremely nervous of leaving Teddy because since I’ve rescued him, I hadn’t been able to leave him with a sitter because he’s a nervous dog and it takes him a while to open up. Luckily they were so amazing and understanding with him. Teddy even let them scratch his belly. Can’t wait for them to watch Teddy again so they can continue building that trust.”
“Iwona was fantastic and updated me frequently. She was very kind to my dog, who has a lot of anxiety but Iwona handled it with a lot of grace and seemed like my dog didn't want to come back from having such a good time Would recommend!”
“Our pup Septon enjoyed his doggie daycare so much with Dani, he didn’t want to leave! I can tell he and his mom are dog people. I really appreciate how responsive he is, as well as all the photos and videos he sent. It gave me peace of mind knowing how much love Septon was getting while I was away.”
“I booked Laura last minute and she was so accommodating! My baby boy loved her, she walked my dog and he had a great time. He came home eat his food and slept will definitely book in the future !”
“This was my first time using Rover & Arianna made it a great experience. My pup can be very anxious and may take a bit to get used to someone new but Arianna was super patient and kind with her. She sent updates and pictures throughout the stay and reassured me everything was going well. My pup quickly warmed up to her and had an enjoyable experience.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Stephanie as our dog sitter! She took care of my dog overnight and did an amazing job. I received daily updates and adorable photos, which made me feel so at ease. She was incredibly pleasant, accommodating, and truly seemed to care about my pet's well-being. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Peggy and Anthony were so amazing. I booked it very last minute for a next day daycare and they were able to take my dog, Noble in. They gave me updates throughout the day and you could just tell they took very good care of Noble. Noble enjoys being with them and had a lot of fun at the dog run. Will definitely be booking them again for a future need.”
About: I pay attention to dogs behaviors to adjust myself . I definitely treat them like people who deserve respect and love ! I tolerate their temper. I am very patient when it comes to getting their attention. And I love love playing with them and praising them. I love talking to them. But I also keep rules strict. I love having a relationship with them . I believe it’s important to respect them to earn their trust and in return they will respect me by following my rules. I am attentive to their needs, I am sympathetic when they are scared , tired or happy . They warm my hearts as much as I will be for them . Their innocence softens my heart .
About: Hello! My name is Josh. My experience in pet care is due from taking care of both dogs and cats for family, friends, and neighbors over the years. I grew up taking care of animals and I always make sure that your pet is as happy as can be! I'm passionate about learning and understanding all different types of dogs and cats. Services I provide are: Dog Walking, Daily Visits, Potty Breaks, Overnight Pet Sitting, and Around the Clock Care. I'm available all throughout the week (morning afternoon and night time) and i also love cats so feline owners dont be shy! Im available full time and have plenty of time to care for your pets needs. I also love to travel so if youre in NYC within the 5 boroughs, i can work something out with no issue. For cat owners: i play and socialize with the cat while youre away, i clean the litterbox daily, and feed your furball on time. For dog owners: I walk the dog as needed, feed & play with the dog and if its an overnight stay, ill monitor your doggie at all times to make sure its happy and safe.
“We needed a super last minute dog watcher and found Emily. She was accommodating and flexible as we were driving in from out of state, when we arrived she showed us her space and it was really clean with a nice enclosed backyard. She sent photos throughout the day and notes about our dog. Emily was great and we highly recommend her!!”
“Ms. Anamika was phenomenal with our puppy who suffers with separation anxiety. He got to exercise in her backyard and had so much room to explore and be curious. She provided pictures and videos to put our minds at ease while his dad and I went to work. We definitely recommend and will be using her services again. Peace and blessings, Amanda, Tanner and Ragnar Ganesh.”
“Jule did an outstanding job puppy-sitting for me. She kept me updated, made sure my puppy was comfortable and happy, and treated them like her own. I came home to a relaxed and well-cared-for pup. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in her hands.”
“Robin was the BEST! She agreed to do a meet and greet with me and even brought her pups to meet my princess Honey. Even though I felt comfortable with her through our chats, meeting her in person beforehand put the cherry on top. Once booked, she took great care of of my Honey girl, sent so many photos and gave me cute updates while I was at work. This was my first booking and definitely will not be the last. She can absolutely be trusted with your fur babies. I’m so glad I took a chance as she made the experience worthwhile. Now my Honey has a home away from home!! Thank you Robin, see you again :)”

“Laura has been so great when walking my beagle! You can tell she’s a true dog lover. She sends detailed updates and takes multiple photos, which I really appreciate. She goes above and beyond. My dog loves her!”
“Jennifer was fantastic with Archer, it was a near last minute booking. But she was able to make it work. She was professional through and through and took pictures during each walk. I usually have a regular person who does pet care for Archer, but they were unavailable so Jennifer definitely came through just in time. I'd recommend anyone to her services”
“This was the second time Charlie helped me out and I couldn’t be happier . He came and met the pup he offered advice and asked many questions about Bruce’s personality and preferences. I asked to change time of the walk and he was very flexible! I am super happy with him and will continue on using him exclusively!”
About: The first dog that I fell in love with was Charlie, my best friend’s beagle. I cared for him for weeks at a time, and that’s when I realized how much I enjoy looking after dogs. Since then, I’ve had the chance to care for several pets, both on and off the books, and each experience has made me love it even more. Although I’ve never owned a dog myself, I have a deep respect and appreciation for them. I understand the dedication, planning, and responsibility that goes into making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. As much as we wish we could bring our pets everywhere, sometimes the best choice is leaving them in a place where they feel at home. That’s the experience I aim to provide: reliable and thoughtful care that supports your pet’s comfort without requiring you to sacrifice your plans. I am currently unemployed and I live with my parents (who also love dogs), so there’s almost always someone home. I was working at Central Park for these last few months, but now that the season is over I can dedicate myself to working my dream job… along with finding a career that goes with my degree. I’ve cared for dogs both in my own home and in clients’ homes. Our quiet neighborhood has plenty of small parks and green spaces for quick walks or a good 30–35 minute wander. I also have a ground-floor apartment with a fenced backyard where dogs can roam, zoom, or take care of their business when a full walk isn’t ideal. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow whatever routine works best for their dog. I can stay overnight or visit in the mornings and evenings for walks, feeding, playtime, and light grooming. My priority is keeping each dog comfortable by sticking to the routine they know.
“I am very happy with Carolina. I have two very different dogs. One is high energy and very dominant while the other one is very timid. She handled both for the very well. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Ian was so wonderful! We have a 16 YO 30lb mutt who is adorable but very ornery—she’s almost entirely deaf, somewhat blind, and generally cranky, so barks all the time at everyone and gets startled easily. Ian was so patient and gentle with her, the right amount of assertive vs deferential, and shared a ton of photos throughout the weekend to calm our nerves. Our babygirl was in great spirits when we got home and we are so grateful!”
“What I’ve been searching for!!! Literally so sweet, knowledgeable about caring for dogs (bio hazards, safety and anxiety) she just gets it!! I’m glad Kobe and I found this hidden gem. I know he is truly in good hands, safe and happy. I trust her judgment and I don’t let anyone watch my dog but she’s the truth!”
“Marla was communicative and punctual. It’s hard to find someone to walk at night (totally understand) but Marla was up for the task and Snickers loved his walk with her! Would highly recommend.”
“Ronnie was super communicative and updated me after every walk. My pup is very picky with walkers but he walked well with Ronnie. Would definitely rebook her for walks.”
“Qilin was great! She was very accommodating of my senior dog and spent plenty of time with him, and was great about sending updates about how he did. I was very happy with Qilin and would absolutely book her to walk Winston again!”
About: Why Rover? My fur baby crossed the rainbow bridge at 17 years old, over a year ago. I miss my dog, but im happy that this platform gives me the opportunity to be around dogs again. About me: I work in fashion and love dogs. I wish could be surrounded by them everyday. I adore dogs of all ages, but senior dogs hold a special place in my heart. I’m experienced in caring for seniors, including administering daily medications. I understand it’s stressful leaving your fur baby with strangers, but I’m extremely communicative and responsible. I’d treat your baby like my own. Im open to connecting prior to confirming the booking, if it helps calm any nerves. I am home most days of the week. I'm in the office 2 days per week. Fortunately my office has a relaxed pet policy, and I'm able to bring in dogs to work. I live in an apartment and believe dogs should never be crated. They’re free to roam my home and are welcome to sleep on my bed at night.
“Amazing as always. My dog had a great time with her, and immediately chugged water when he got home from the walk. He hates drinking water! Glad he got some exercise, or at least as much as his little Chihuahua legs will allow him.”
About: I love animals and enjoy spending time with pets of different personalities and needs. I am patient, responsible, and understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pet. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, or simply having company, I will make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you are away. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive and reliable care for your pets. I am available on weekdays and weekends and can adapt to your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My goal is to make your time away as stress free as possible for both you and your pet.
“We are so lucky to have you in our lives and Hollys. Thanks for the wonderful update we are so grateful. We referred our friend to you this morning do you want him to contact you via rover?”
