Highly-rated overnight sitters - Utopia
“My pug Charlie had another wonderful time with Abbie and Peachy. Charlie feels really safe with Abbie even though she is a little anxious and Peachy is a great friend that helps Charlie to stay active and socialized especially in this cold weather. Outstanding hosts!”
“This is my 3rd time leaving Kuddle with them, this time for 2 weeks. They really looked after her very well and we would use them to look after her many more times.”
“Vanessa dog boarded my cocker spaniel for 3 nights. In that time I received daily updates (with photos) and top notch care. Shea was very well groomed and given a lot of love and attention. Vanessa even treated a skin issue Shea had and returned her brand new! I would highly recommend her in the future!”
“I highly recommend Juliana and her family as your go to sitter. Juliana is extremely communicative and sends daily updates and pictures/videos. Our dog always comes back clean, happy, and sleepy! Juliana has become our go to sitter for when we travel out of town!”
“I would like to start by saying, in general I am a skeptical person who does not trust people with my dog because like others, my dog is my child. With that being said, I needed a dog sitter short notice while I went on a family vacation to Africa and prior arrangements fell through. Hesitant, I knew that a sitter would be best for me because I didn’t like the idea of boarding him at a facility. My dog weighs 4 lbs and is still a puppy, he seeks love and companionship. While scrolling through Rover I found Diane and I am happy I did. She was amazing in every aspect. She kept me posted about my dog with text, videos, and pictures several times throughout the day. She gave him sooooo much love and affection, responded fast and answered any questions I might have. She was very accommodating to me and Kobe. She treated him like he was her dog. She even sent him off with a gift. I trust her so much and will be sure to book with her over and over again. Thank you so much Diane. If you are looking a for someone who will love and provide good, safe care for your dog please book Diane.”
“I am so thankful Charlie was available for a last minute booking/ boarding for our dog, Bibi. After communicating our needs, we knew Charlie was a great fit. Our dog felt right at home, and Charlie communicated frequently throughout her time there, including sending picture and video updates unprompted. We would love the opportunity to re-book with Charlie in the future.”
“Amy was such an amazing caretaker for Apollo! We needed someone to watch him during a long trip, and since he had never stayed with her before, she generously offered not one, but two meet-and-greets. The first was to meet us and Apollo, and the second allowed him to get comfortable in her home before his stay. From the very beginning, Amy was incredibly sweet, kind, and welcoming. Her family was just as excited to have Apollo and made him feel right at home. She took the time to listen to all of our instructions and learn about Apollo’s preferences, and she truly embraced having him as part of her family while we were away. Throughout his stay, she kept me updated with pictures and messages about how he was eating, sleeping, adjusting, and whether he seemed anxious. Her communication was excellent, and she was always so accommodating and thoughtful. Apollo was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for, which gave me so much peace of mind while traveling. I trusted Amy completely and would absolutely have Apollo stay with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, reliable, and communicative sitter!”
“Shirley is the best! She is responsible, kind, and very communicative. We appreciated all the photos she shared and took comfort knowing that our puppy was in great hands with Shirley. You can tell that she is a true animal lover. Highly recommended!!”
“I had a last-minute trip scheduled and was initially very concerned about leaving my dog in someone else's care. After conducting some research, I found Rover, specifically Adriana. Her presence immediately alleviated the stress I was experiencing. Adriana is clearly an animal lover, a kind soul, and an excellent caregiver. If you ever need someone to care for your pet, I highly recommend her. To be honest, I felt a bit envious when I saw the pictures of how happy my dog was, but I am so glad to know that she felt at home with Adriana. Thank you, Adriana! It is comforting to know that there are kind and generous people like you who genuinely care for animals.”
“This is the first time Tuna has boarded with anyone and Kristin did an amazing job!! Great communication, flexibility and sent picture/video everyday! Will be booking with Kristin again in the future. Tuna had the best time! ❤️❤️”
“Qin En took good care of my cat Echo while I was out of town. She sent me multiple pictures/videos a day so I can enjoy my vacation while making sure my cat is doing well. She genuinely loves cats and actually any animals! 😂 highly recommend 😊”
“I had an amazing experience having Denis and his wife to watch my cat Fifi for a few days! They were able to confirm to watch my cat, given the short notice and on a holiday weekend. I was sent plenty pictures and videos throughout her stay and I was shocked to see how quickly Fifi adjusted to her new environment. I was happy hearing how well she was doing, and seeing her be herself. She had earned their trust pretty quickly on. They really took the time to care for my angel 😌 I could see how much passion, care and attention they have for animals and they treated Fifi as if she was theirs. 🥲 I was worry-free most of the time, knowing she was having a blast with her new friends ☺️ I was able to get alot done while they took Fifi off my hands. My cat will definitely miss being there with them. I am so glad I booked and I absolutely trust them with her again. I highly recommend them looking after your pet! 😊”
“Awesome dog sitter! Sent me pictures and gave me updates everyday. I’m not sure my dog even wanted to come home after staying with them. Will definitely use them again.”
“Michele welcomed our little baby at the last minute and showed her so much love. She constantly updated me with pics and little messages regarding her stay. Michele and her family are very loving.”
“Iwona took wonderful care of our dog while we were away and gave us real peace of mind. She kept us updated throughout the weekend and sent photos, which we always appreciate. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog sitter!”
“We love David and Marcy so much! We always feel totally confident that Archie is in good hands, and they're super flexible about pickup and drop-off times. Can't recommend enough. Also their resident dog, Nuno, is a true king.”
“The experience with Ruth U was dynamic for our fur baby Buddy. I truly appreciated getting videos of his ventures in a warm and loving environment. We will utilize their wonderful services in the future. We gave our tip in person yesterday at drop-off.”
“I can’t recommend Grace & Wu enough! They took care of my 3-month-old kitten like she was their own. Grace updated me almost every hour with adorable pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She even gave my kitten a nail trim — seriously, who does that without even being asked? It just shows how much love and genuine care she has for cats. Watching my kitten bond so happily with her own cats made me feel like I had left her in the best possible hands. Grace is truly a loving and caring cat mom, and she absolutely deserves way more appreciation here on Rover. Thank you so much, Grace & Wu — you are amazing!”
“Krystal took wonderful care of our dog, Joules, while we were away for two weeks. We were initially nervous about leaving our older dog for that long, but Krystal made the experience completely stress-free. She kept us updated regularly, gave Joules plenty of attention and long walks, and clearly cared about his well-being. We came home to a happy dog and couldn't be more pleased. We highly recommend Krystal!”

About: I've taken care of all types of pets since I was 8. Ranging from 3 month old puppies to 15 year old seniors. Family and friends have relied on me to walk and care for their pets. I am also currently in college pursuing a career in veterinary medicine. I'm currently in college and working part-time but I will have more than enough time to truly care for and walk your pups! I will put great amount of time and energy into each walk. I have 3 dogs which I have cared for, for many years and take on extensive walks 3-4 times a day. I know how to leash-train and can deal with pulling. Dogs tend to trust me quickly because I take time to let them know I’m here to care for them. I make sure my animals and those of others feel all my love.
“Lawrence is incredible! He took such wonderful care of my cat Gidget over several nights, and I felt completely at ease knowing that she was in such good hands. Lawrence consistently communicated - he regularly sent me photos and videos, which not only reassured me, but also showed how comfortable and happy Gidget was. It’s clear Lawrence truly cares about animals, and treats them like his own. I’ll definitely be reaching out again for future stays, and would highly recommend him!”
About: I’ve taken care of and trained my own dog and cat for the past 6 years and before that, dog-sat for family, friends, and neighbors for several years, including walking, feeding, bathing, playing, and keeping pets company while their owners are away. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive to each pet’s personality and routine. I’m super comfortable with energetic pets who need exercise, as well as shy or older pets who need extra care, calm attention, and consistency. I will always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I've also taken care of birds, mice, and bunnies, so I would love to help out with any of those, too! I'm currently a University of Pennsylvania student home for the summer! I'm working an internship but am completely free in the evenings and on the weekends! I make safety and comfort my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, triggers, and favorite things so they feel secure and cared for. In a client’s home, I respect their space, follow instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and send regular updates. I’m attentive on walks, careful around other animals, and always make sure pets get the right mix of exercise, affection, and calm downtime. At my own home, I have a large completely fenced yard with cameras for additional safety. I also live across the street from a park so for the energetic ones, I have lots of opportunities to take them out!
“Charlie very gracefully accommodated our last minute request to drop in on our two cats, which we really appreciate. He did an outstanding job ensuring they had food, water, and litter, and was very responsive. We loved receiving updates on the cats every day. Would book again if I have the opportunity.”
“Nateesha is amazing! She did a wonderful job caring for our 2 cats, even our more shy cat looked at ease in the photos she shared (photos were very much appreciated). I sent my booking request without much time before my trip, and I really appreciate that she was able to accommodate and care for our cats during the holidays. 10/10 I would absolutely recommend Nateesha!”

About: absolutely love cats and think they are the sweetest, most cuddly creatures! Growing up with my own childhood cats, Muffin and Rayray, taught me everything about feline behavior and care. I have been taking care of cats of every kind since I was 10 years old, and friends, family, and neighbors have always relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their beloved pets. I promise to give your kitties all the love, cuddles, and attention they deserve!
About: I have always had cats in my life, growing up and as an adult. I know how to administer medicine, and have a good way with cats. I currently have two cats of my own I love like my own children.
“Jessica is wonderful. She came prepared to our meet and greet with questions and notes and she always responds quickly when you send her a message. She followed all feeding and medication instructions. My kitty was in great hands and was so calm when I came home. Will definitely use her services again in the future.”
“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!!”
About: I have been caring for cats for more than half of my life and truly enjoy getting to know each cat’s unique personality. I’m comfortable with shy, independent, or playful cats and take the time to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and secure in their home environment. I provide reliable drop-in care tailored to your cat’s routine, including feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance, and keeping their space clean and comfortable. I respect each cat’s boundaries and never force interaction, allowing trust to build naturally. I am also experienced with administering medications when needed and always follow instructions carefully to support each cat’s health and well-being. You can feel confident knowing your cat will be in calm, attentive, and experienced hands while you’re away.
About: I have owned my cat Stormi for 8 years, and frequently care for friends’ pets (cats and dogs) while they are away on vacation. They know their pet is safe and loved when in my care. Free to walk and visit pets in your home Thursday through Sunday. I am currently a master’s student at Queens College and trying to make some money by pet sitting/walking. I will follow all your instructions while caring for your pet or when in your home. If any accidents happen, I will thoroughly clean after your pet.
About: I’m Erika and I hope to soon be your new favorite dog walker! I’ve loved animals (especially dogs) my whole life and grew up always around them. I’ve worked with all kinds of animals, big to small, scaly to fluffy, and sweet as a pea to wild as can be. I’ve worked in a zoo, on a farm and definitely ended up finding my passion in the pet industry. I’ve worked at doggy day cards and have been walking professionally for about 5+ years now. I’m used to dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments, and backgrounds; I am more than willing to go above and beyond for my clients and will always treat your fur babies as if they were my own. Looking forward to meeting you both! :)
“As always Jason went above and beyond for Cali & Willie. The kitties absolutely love Jason and greet him as soon as he arrives even if it’s been almost 6 months since they last saw him. Thank you as always Jason!”
“Hemei did a great job taking care of our cat. She did everything we asked and was very communicative. We felt very comfortable being away with our cat in her care and would definitely book her again.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Utopia
“Outstanding daycare experience and Peachy was a great host too . They were very sensitive to Charlie who has some anxiety and made her feel very comfortable and she felt right at home once she warmed up. They gave an immediate update at her first visit, which was very comforting. They were also very honest and kind , sent photos and followed all instructions. I highly recommend. My pug came home smiling and she’s looking forward to her next slumber party there☺️”
About: • I worked at the Howard beach animal clinic as a veterinary assistant where I assisted veterinarians with vaccine administration, blood draws, and wellness checks for both cats and dogs. I also learned how to administer medication to dogs/cats, give cpr to dogs specifically, handle hyperactive, anxious, and/or aggressive dogs/cats, and work with all kinds of breeds ranging from chihuahuas to Great Danes. • Before that, I gained experience working with dogs by volunteering at nyc pet services in Astoria, where I took care of many different kinds of dogs by supervising the area and ensuring all dogs were happy and safe. • My love for animals started with my golden Labrador and poodle at age 5, then at age 12 I got a Maltese whom I’ve grown up with and is now 16 years old. My experience not only includes dogs and cats of different breeds and sizes but also temperament, behavior, and personality. All of this experience has taught me how to read dogs and cats better, know when to approach sensitive dogs, and the best way to interact with said sensitive dogs. I can accept same day request due to my very flexible schedule, because of my flexible schedule I can focus on your pets happiness! I will have plenty of time to take them out on long walks for exercise, play time, and feedings. I love to spend time with dogs and cats, they truly make my day so much better! If it’s too hot out we can have play time indoors with some nice AC and play with some enrichment puzzles! I can assure your best friend will be in good hands and I’ll take care of them as if they were my own. I live in a pet friendly building, I’m on the first floor so your pets can enjoy jumping and running as much as they want! I have a park nearby where we can enjoy long walks and play time. A large living room that they can explore and take comfy naps. I can also make them tasty treats if you’d like! I have a small senior Maltese, she’s 16 years old and enjoys taking many naps but will still love to make new friends. She’s very chill due to her age so you can rest assured that your pups will be safe, but if you’d rather them be separated I have a divider that will ensure that! My priority is that both the owner and pup are comfortable and happy :)
“She sent me lots of photos, so I felt reassured. She’s professional and clearly loves and cares about dogs. I will definitely rebook her when i need daycare of my dog!”
About: For about two years, I've been looking after my friend's dog. Growing up, I've always had cats, and my love for animals runs deep. I'm committed to ensuring their happiness and well-being, going above and beyond to care for them. As a flight attendant, my schedule varies every week. However, you can always reach me, and I typically have entire days or even two to three consecutive days available. I'll ensure their happiness by taking them for walks, feeding them nutritious meals, and providing attentive care, including cleaning up after them, engaging in playtime, brushing their teeth, and meeting all their needs to keep them healthy and content.
“Viviana took very good care of our older, anxious dog, making him feel comfortable and at ease while we were away for the day. She was very flexible to meet our dropoff and pick up needs as well. We will book with Viviana again!”

“Emily was absolutely amazing! She is incredibly professional, flexible, and easy to communicate with. From the start, she made everything smooth and stress-free, always keeping me updated and making sure my dog was well taken care of. You can really tell she cares and takes her work seriously. I felt completely confident leaving my dog with her, and I could see how happy and comfortable he was the entire time. I highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for reliable, trustworthy, and top-quality care. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life! Love every furry friend I see! Beyond responsible and great with every breed! Can’t wait for your best friend to become my best friend! (If you need help with training I’d be more than happy to help with that too). I’m patient, responsible, supportive, give tons of attention and care. I’m great with all ages and breeds! Live by myself in a nice neighborhood with lots of great areas to walk and play, lots of grass parks and very safe. My apartment is a large 2 bedroom on the 2nd floor of a 2 family house. I have a car as well if you need me to pickup and drop off. I mainly work from home and it’s extremely part time. You can basically say that I’m retired. I’m usually always available, my home is the perfect place for your dog! I have a fenced yard with plenty of grass. I live in a very safe and quiet neighborhood in NYC. I don’t have any pets at the moment, unfortunately my Shmoopy passed away of old age recently :(

About: Most notably, I have worked for Dan's Pet Care as a dog walker in Manhasset for 6 months. I would walk dogs, sometimes feed them, give them water, give them medication, pick up and drop them off to and from the petcare center if asked to. To put it shortly, I have lots of experience with new dogs. I also used to work at The Allypond Environmental Center, along with owning pets throughout my life and still do to this day such as dogs, cats, birds, fish, and guinea pigs. I've also taken care of my and other family members dogs some who have had casts on a leg. I'm used to taking care of my pet bird everyday along with helping the stray cat who we have fed for months now, all the dogs I've ever owned sadly passed away but I've always took care of them. I have a secure home and a fenced yard with plenty of space, on top of that my neighborhood is fairly quiet with 3 nice parks nearby for good long walks.
About: Hello! We are RuthAnn and Brandon, a husband and wife duo of lifelong dog lovers. We know that your dog isn’t just a pet… they are FAMILY! That’s why when your pup stays with us they aren’t just “guest dogs” they become a part of our family too. Plus there’s two of us so this means TWICE the love and attention of a regular sitter :) A little bit about us: We are the proud “aunt and uncle” to our family dogs, West and Sadie. We’ve added them to our profile so you can get to know more about them there. While they don’t live with us they visit us often and they are very friendly, so if they happen to be over during your pups stay, that just means more friends to play with! I am currently a nursing student in my last semester and my husband works in sales! So one of the biggest perks of booking with us is that our schedules are flexible. At least one of us is always home. So your pup will have constant companionship, potty breaks and plenty of belly rubs thought the day. We also have a large fully fenced yard that’s perfect for zoomies or a game of fetch! We want you to have total peace of mind when you book with us, so we offer meet and greets prior to booking, as well as regular updates, photos and videos of all the fun your dog is having. We can’t wait to meet your furry best friend! Seamlessly because we are home based and flexible. Between the two of us, your dog will have constant supervision and a routine tailored to their needs! We live in a fully fenced home so your pup has full access to a safe fenced yard for supervised play of course. Because Brandon and I are home, your pup gets a perfect balance of activity and rest. We follow your specific feeding and medications to a T (we know how important this is) and we love to provide plenty of belly rubs and cuddles on the couch. We keep a tidy dog proofed home and we keep fresh water available at all times!! We are a team that’s big on communication so you’ll receive daily updates with photos and videos so you can see exactly what your baby is up to. If your dog enjoys company, we love to facilitate play, if they are on the shyer more timid side and prefer one on one time, we can accommodate for that as well.
“She was the absolute best when sitting for my baby: sent multiple photos and videos during his stay over, and he was happy upon return. Jacind even accommodated my late return. Would highly recommend!! 5 stars!!”

“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.

Peace and blessings, Amanda, Tanner and Ragnar Ganesh.”

“Nateesha is so kind, considerate, and patient! She works with my schedule and is so calm and understanding of my pup. Kiwi is an elderly, antisocial, grumpy, and now (mostly) blind boy, and Nateesha took her time and engaged with him until he was comfortable. She also took the time to get to know what I was looking for and figure out what could alleviate my concerns. Highly recommend!!!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 11, caring for my own two dogs and the family members’ dogs. I trained and raised one of my dogs with expertise in walking, feeding, and meeting all the needs of a dog. My love for dogs leaves me equipped with all the necessary skills to ensure that your dog’s needs are met and they feel loved and cared for. I am a responsible person who works hard and is organized at all times, making me a perfect option to care for your furry friend. I’m currently a college student with plenty of time to care for your pups! Tuesdays and Thursdays I’m available after 3:30 and Saturdays I’m available afternoons and evenings! I have experience working with dogs in various environments, understanding what is needed to keep pets safe. I am aware of surroundings at all times and feel as though I tend to have a good read on dog’s comfortability levels. I would be able to follow any specific instructions in compliance with the dog’s preferences.
“We had a fantastic experience! Annye took wonderful care of our cat, Louis (9), and our dog, Hazel (7), with drop ins and walks over a week. Communication was excellent (we received consistent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind). Both pets were happy and bonded quickly, which says a lot. Also went above and beyond to handle a few issues that came up, and did so with flexibility and care. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Oswald is great!!! From the time I met him I knew he was going to be a good fit for King. He's very attentive and super caring. I would recommend him to anyone looking for assistance with their fur baby”
“Jessica has been caring for my dog Niko for several years. From the first meeting I was impressed with how she interacted with Niko and how quickly she put him at ease. He loves her and when I have to leave him knowing Jessica is there to care for him gives me incredible peace of mind! She is someone who really loves and understands animals and it shows in how happy and relaxed Niko is when I return home. You couldn’t ask for a better caretaker for your pet!”
About: Each dog is treated exactly the same. Let me know of any allergies or specific cravings your dog has or needs! This is important. I observe each dog and their habits. I care for each dog as if they were my own. I am a loving and caring individual. I care for animals more than anything. They deserved to be treated fairly.

“It’s was such a blessing to have Cynthia walk our furry baby Aria during our 17 day trip overseas. She showed to be responsible, reliable and very loving with Aria. She sent me daily pics and documented every walk. It was such a joy to hear daily from their walks. Aria adores her and will keep coming back for more and more walks in the near future. Thank you so much Cynthia! Aria adores and misses you!”
