Britanny was amazing and helped me a lot last minute to get a pet sitter for my kitten. She usually doesn’t do kittens, but she was gracious enough to take Bowie in for the night. She sent me so many pictures of him having fun and sent me home with some goodies too :) I highly recommend her

We had another great experience leaving our dog with Jared! He noticed she had a medical issue and offered to take her to the vet. We were coming home anyway and were able to take her and it turned out he was totally correct in his diagnosis! Jared saved the day. Plus the dog had a great time staying with him, as usual. Thanks, Jared!

From the very first moment we met Nadjeska, we knew she was the perfect person to care for our beloved dog, Forest. Leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, but Nadjeska immediately put us at ease with her warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for dogs. Forest spent 11 wonderful days with Nadjeska and her family, and the level of care and affection he received was truly exceptional—far beyond what we could have hoped for anywhere else. Nadjeska treated Forest as if he were her own, ensuring he felt safe, loved, and happy every single day. What impressed us most was her commitment to keeping us connected. We received regular updates and daily photos that captured Forest’s joyful moments and his amazing interactions with her family and dogs. These thoughtful touches gave us complete peace of mind and showed just how dedicated Nadjeska is to her work. If you’re looking for someone who is not only highly qualified but also deeply passionate about caring for dogs, Nadjeska is the one. We recommend her with the highest confidence and gratitude—she is simply outstanding. Sincerely, David and Ana

Ariel sent picture updates all the time which was huge for us since we left them for two weeks. Our dogs came back smelling amazing and happy!

We were nervous to leave him for the first time, but we received daily updates on him and knew he was having so much fun. We are so relieved to have found such a loving family to spend time with him, and can’t thank them enough for helping us out. Would recommend them to anyone looking for awesome pet sitters!

Our son was getting married in upstate NY so we needed a sitter for our dog Kai while we were away. We have always left Kai with either family or friends, but since everyone we knew was attending the wedding I reached out to Laura. We set up a meet and greet -I knew from the first time I met her that she was a perfect match. She was warm and kind - obviously a dog lover - and she made a connection with our normally shy dog right away. She asked a lot of questions about Kai's habits - she wanted to make sure she followed his normal daily routine so that he would be comfortable in her home.. Her house is beautiful and she has a large, fenced in back yard that allowed Kai to run free in a safe environment. Laura took him for a 3 mile daily walk, and sent many pictures and updates the whole 6 days she had him. He became a part of her family❤️ I cannot say enough about how happy we were to have found her. She gave us peace of mind that Kai was well loved and cared for so we were able to enjoy the wedding without any worries. I would HIGHLY recommend Laura to anyone looking for a sitter!!

About: My name is Ruby and I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I love them all and my goal is to make sure they are happy and healthy. Your babies will be thoroughly entertained and mentally stimulated when they are with me. I am a quick learner and a friendly individual who follows specific instructions with ease. I look forward to taking care of your furbabies! Experience with dogs for over 15 years. I have walked dogs for 8 years in the past. I have advanced knowledge in dog health, behavior, psychology and nutrition. I have basic knowledge and experience with all other pets. I know doggy CPR. Why I love dog sitting I am a passionate animal lover who only wants the best for them. Being able to care for them while their owners are away and seeing how happy they are after a stay puts a smile on my face. My experience administering medication I administer medication for my dog on a daily basis, as well as friend/family's dogs whenever needed. I’ve given insulin shots, vaccines, oral medication, as well as topical medication. I spend most of my time taking care of animals throughout the day as it is my passion, not to mention I have a decent amount of pets myself. I do also take care of my elderly grandmother so I split my time up accordingly. The pets in my home all get treated equally and as one of my own and they always feel right at home! I wake up and the first thing I do is let the dogs out for their morning bathroom break. They all typically go out into my fenced in yard together as one big group. I prepare their breakfasts while they're all outside and then feed them once they are let back into the house. They spend the day with me around the house where they play with each other and where I play games with them. They go on 2-3 walks per day (if the owners allow me to take them for walks) and get plenty of exercise throughout the day. They're fed their dinner between 6pm and 7pm, get their last potty break at about 9pm and then we are done for the day!

Jared was absolutely amazing! He has a beautiful home and extensive grounds which Charlotte loved. His two dogs are adorable and sweet and Charlotte had such fun playing with them. It was great to get pictures and updates during the day and I think she wasn’t thrilled when it was time to leave. I couldn’t ask for anyone better for Charlotte to spend the day with. And I know that we will both be happy to see Jared again. Thank you Jared for being so awesome!

About: Hi there, I’m Brenda! 😊 I’m a dedicated pet sitter with a background in animal care. I’ve completed a vet assistant certification and have worked in a local veterinary clinic in Sag Harbor, gaining hands-on experience in pet health and well-being. I also spent time working in an animal shelter in Brazil, caring for pets of all kinds, including rescues with special needs. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities, and I’d love the opportunity to care for them as if they were my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! 🐾💕 I’m a full-time pet sitter, so I have a flexible schedule to accommodate your pet’s needs. Whether it’s daily visits, extended stays, or customized care, I’m happy to work around what’s best for you and your furry friend! 🐾 I also offer Half Day Pet Care, a personalized 4–5 hour care service in your pet’s home. This is not traditional daycare at my house—instead, I spend dedicated time with your pet, providing companionship, walks, playtime, dog park, and plenty of attention. Pickup and drop-off services are included. Unfortunately, I’m unable to take pets into my home since I live in a rented place. That’s why I provide pet care in their owner’s home, where they can stay comfortable and stress-free in their familiar environment. This also allows me to keep their routine as normal as possible while you’re away! 🐾💕

About: Hi, I’m Ariel! 🐾 Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. From growing up caring for family pets to rescuing dogs in need, I’ve spent decades learning how to understand and care for pups of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I’m now a proud dog mom to two dogs of my own, both of whom I’ve personally trained from puppyhood. I’ve navigated everything from potty training, crate training, leash manners, and basic obedience to caring for senior dogs who need a little extra patience, comfort, and attention. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a spirited adult, or a sweet senior, I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. I understand that every pup has unique needs, routines, and quirks, and I take the time to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Expect plenty of walks, playtime, belly rubs, photo updates, and one on one attention. My goal is simple: for your dog to have such a great time that they’re excited to see me again! 🐶💕 Spending the summer in Sag Harbor, I’m fortunate to have access to beautiful walking routes and dog friendly areas, making every outing an adventure. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. Reliable, attentive, and genuinely dog-obsessed, I’m here to provide the same level of care I’d want for my own pups. I'm up in Sag Harbor for the summer and currently semi retired from my 14 year career in property management. With two pups of my own I am fully capable of feedings, walks, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and some medical. I'm great at understanding the different personalities dogs may have. I will ensure your pups are always safe and well taken care of so you can stay worry free.

This was my first time using Rover.com. I had picked up my German shepherd, Evie, from a shelter in North Carolina last November. Based on her recorded condition when brought in as a stray 5 weeks before she had been through a rough period. She has fully recovered now and is in good health. My wife and I wanted to find someone to board her with where she would be happy when we're away. We identified a few possibilities at the Rover website and following a positive meet and greet with Nadjeska last week, had Evie spend the day with her yesterday. It went very well. Nadjeska sent us several texts with photos during the day updating us on Evie's stay. We were looking for a home where Evie could spend time with and play with other dogs and Evie made a new friend, Sparkles, Najeska's little dog. Nadjeska has a fenced yard which provides a safe place for them to run around in the fresh air. Evie seemed to enjoy the day, Nadjeska obviously loves dogs, and we will be repeat clients in the near future.

Joe and his wife were very friendly. They watched Shiloh for about 5 hours while we visited with friends in the area. At pick up, we could tell Shiloh enjoyed her visit and playtime with the family's dog.

We were in town visiting from Virginia and needed to find someone to watch our baby Jax for a day. So glad we found Elisa! She was very responsive to our request and was able to accommodate our change in pick up time. I can tell her and her family treated Jax like one of their own because he adapted so quickly! And I can tell he had a lot of fun because he instantly went to sleep. We’ll definitely book Elisa again if we need another sitter when we’re back in town!

About: I grew up in a house full of animal lovers. I have always wanted to work with animals, and caring for pets has been an absolute pleasure for the past 15 years. I love my job and will always go above and beyond to make sure your pets are properly cared for and loved while you are away. I also provide dog walking, minimum of 1 hr walk required to book, and boarding in my home. I am reliable, punctual, honest, have common sense, and a huge heart. We can set up a meet and greet free of charge to make sure that me and your pets are a good fit. Thank you for considering me, and I look forward to hearing from you! I am available for dog walks, drop ins, boarding, or overnights in your home. There is an hour minimum for dog walks and for drop ins I offer overnight stays in the pets home. I will follow their normal routine as closely as possible, and make them feel safe and comfortable with me. I also offer dog boarding. Your dog will be safe, comfortable, and well cared for while staying in my home.

About: I have over ten years of experience with dogs. I had a rat terrier named Imani growing up so I have experience with high energy dogs from puppies to seniors. I have 4 years of experience with cats. Three years with two seven year old boys during a previous relationship where I honed my cat care, training skills and love for cats. So much so that I adopted my own cat, a two year old named Billie, last year. I have also trained her to sit, lay down and fetch as well as using positive reinforcement to dissuade scratching behaviors. I am currently working for myself as a freelance photographer and consultant so I have a pretty flexible schedule and can accommodate multiple drop in’s in one day or work from your home while pet sitting. I am dedicated to maintaining a clean and safe environment for the pet I’m caring for. I love to send picture and video updates regularly. I love to play with cats and dogs and am committed to their happiness and safety.

About: From a young age, one of my greatest aspirations was to learn how to properly train and care for dogs. At just nine years old, I saved my birthday money and—with the help of my parents—welcomed my very first puppy into my life. From that moment forward, dogs have remained a central part of my life. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of raising and caring for five dogs, including one beloved companion who is no longer with us. Today, my fur family includes two Shih Tzus, an Australian Cattle Dog, and a Miniature Australian Shepherd. After relocating to Kansas City, I brought my Australian Cattle Dog and Mini Aussie with me. My two Shih Tzus were raised in New York and remain there with family, where they are comfortable in the environment they’ve always known. Needless to say, these animals mean the world to me. They bring immeasurable joy, companionship, and energy into everyday life, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with the care of your pet. I would be honored to care for your dog with the same attentiveness, patience, and integrity that I give my own. In addition to general care, I am well-versed in puppy development, foundational training techniques, and behavioral correction strategies. If your dog would benefit from structured guidance during our time together, I’m happy to incorporate that as part of the experience. My personal dogs do not need to be present during any service. However, if your dog forms a positive connection with one of mine and you specifically request that they join us for companionship during walks or activities, I’m happy to accommodate when appropriate. In those cases, it can create a fun and enriching experience for everyone involved. My goal is simple: to ensure your dog feels safe, engaged, and well cared for—while giving you complete peace of mind. Pet care is already part of my daily routine so, adding another to the pack isn’t a hassle! My two pups keep me busy and on schedule, they’re fed around 8am, and again at 5pm. Aside from routine morning walks, they exercise for roughly 1.5hrs daily (depending on weather conditions). My home is smoke free, and pet welcoming. I have 4 amazing dogs (Mini Aussie, Australian Cattle Dog, and 2 Shitzus) that will happily keep your pup entertained! They are thoroughly trained and well mannered. If you have a pet that you don’t think will do well with this interaction, I will gladly chat with you to see if we can find a way to accommodate! I have a spacious, fenced-in, backyard area for you dogs to enjoy themselves!

Britanny was amazing and helped me a lot last minute to get a pet sitter for my kitten. She usually doesn’t do kittens, but she was gracious enough to take Bowie in for the night. She sent me so many pictures of him having fun and sent me home with some goodies too :) I highly recommend her

We had another great experience leaving our dog with Jared! He noticed she had a medical issue and offered to take her to the vet. We were coming home anyway and were able to take her and it turned out he was totally correct in his diagnosis! Jared saved the day. Plus the dog had a great time staying with him, as usual. Thanks, Jared!

From the very first moment we met Nadjeska, we knew she was the perfect person to care for our beloved dog, Forest. Leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, but Nadjeska immediately put us at ease with her warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for dogs. Forest spent 11 wonderful days with Nadjeska and her family, and the level of care and affection he received was truly exceptional—far beyond what we could have hoped for anywhere else. Nadjeska treated Forest as if he were her own, ensuring he felt safe, loved, and happy every single day. What impressed us most was her commitment to keeping us connected. We received regular updates and daily photos that captured Forest’s joyful moments and his amazing interactions with her family and dogs. These thoughtful touches gave us complete peace of mind and showed just how dedicated Nadjeska is to her work. If you’re looking for someone who is not only highly qualified but also deeply passionate about caring for dogs, Nadjeska is the one. We recommend her with the highest confidence and gratitude—she is simply outstanding. Sincerely, David and Ana

Ariel sent picture updates all the time which was huge for us since we left them for two weeks. Our dogs came back smelling amazing and happy!

We were nervous to leave him for the first time, but we received daily updates on him and knew he was having so much fun. We are so relieved to have found such a loving family to spend time with him, and can’t thank them enough for helping us out. Would recommend them to anyone looking for awesome pet sitters!

About: I love taking care of friendly dogs and making sure that they are as comfortable as possible. We'd have lots of play time in the yard, leashed walks around the block a couple of times a day and enough quiet and rest time to ensure a relaxing stay for your pet. They would be joining my neutered 5 year old mini bernadoodle (15lbs), Stella who is a real lady :-)) I work from home so will usually be around to look after and play with your pet. There will be yard play and leashed walks around the block with my furry friend. I have a fenced yard and will always be outside with your pet. Potty breaks are regularly scheduled as well as being as needed depending on your pet. Fresh water is always out, I like to give my dog a chewy treat or milk bone around lunchtime. When we walk around the block it will always be on a leash.

Julius and family took good care of our dog. Julius is super-responsive and sent several cute pictures of the visit. It looked like everyone got along well and were very active. Our dog came home exhausted, which is a good thing. We also needed to adjust the end time a little bit, and Julius was very accommodating of the last minute change.
