“Michelle is amazing! We are new to the area and had a negative experience with a different sitter previously. I was so nervous to try someone new. We found Michelle and I am SO grateful!! I honestly think our dog didn’t want to leave her house. She sent tons of photos and updates. Our Great Dane is sensitive to new situations and will refuse to eat. Michelle waited with her during each meal so she would eat. She truly went above and beyond and I can not recommend her enough.”
“Teddy seemed to really enjoy his stay with Alissa. He looked happy in the pictures that she sent us and he came back home not mad at us for leaving him. Thank you so much for taking such good care of teddy!”
“We had such a wonderful experience! Dior felt right at home from the moment she arrived and was so well cared for during her stay. We loved getting updates and could tell she was receiving lots of attention, love, and even some extra treats. Especially because Dior was in heat we were so happy she was comfortable. The thoughtful gift keychain was such a sweet surprise and really showed how much they care about both pets and their owners. We came home to a happy pup and couldn't ask for more. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog!”
“Alba was wonderful ! It was so comforting to get photos and know my pups were in such great hands ! Such a great experience, I would definitely book with her again !”
“We are so comfortable leaving our fur baby with Pam. She truly puts our mind at ease when we go away. Mugsy runs into Pam’s house when we arrive because he loves it so much! It’s his own little vacation!!”
“Denise and her family were amazing. She took pictures of Luna during her stay and was very accommodating. I would definitely use her service in the future. Thank you Denise.”
“Had dropped Neo for 10 days . We have received photos and videos and they kept us updated all the time. He loves staying with them and we would always recommend them. Overall a great experience!!”
“Krissy is great! She’s very caring and understanding with Blu. Blu is a 50 lb lab mix, who is sweet but tugs on the leash at times. This doesn’t bother Krissy and she works with him. She sends pictures throughout the day. She gives updates as needed throughout the day and at pick up. She’s absolutely wonderful. Blu will spend more days with Krissy for sure. Highly recommend her.”

“Yessenia was absolutely lovely to work with. She answered any questions we had as first time Rover customers in order to put us at ease. We could see from the first interaction that she would be kind to our dog, as she immediately got down and gave her hand to the dog to sniff and then pet her. She has a daughter with a sweet and gentle personality, who kindly shared her own blanket with the dog to make the dog feel more comfortable. Yessenia‘s husband was friendly and pleasant as well. Yessenia sent us multiple pictures and updates over the weekend while she watched the dog. Though we brought some supplies, she was also prepared with her own if necessary. Furthermore, since Yesenia had already experienced life with a senior dog, she offered us some suggestions that might help with our pup. Our Rusty had never been cared for by a stranger up to this point. It was hard for us to leave her. That said, we would not only highly recommend Yessenia and her family to other dog owners, we will definitely reach out to Yessenia again if we need someone to board the dog. She even included a lovely note about the experience. Her thoughts were genuine, and it was nice for us to be reminded about the beauty of our dog whom we see every day.”
“Rachel Rachel was absolutely wonderful with Nilo. This was our first time using her services after our regular sitter had an unexpected emergency, and she was kind enough to meet with us right away. Nilo can be a little challenging at times, so I made sure to explain his personality, behaviors, and needs. Rachel was incredibly patient, understanding, and caring from the very beginning. She took the time to make Nilo feel comfortable, took him on several walks, and it was clear that he felt safe and relaxed in her home. It means so much to find someone who genuinely cares for your pet, and Rachel did exactly that. We felt at ease knowing Nilo was in such good hands. We are so grateful for her help and would not hesitate to book with her again. Thank you, Rachel, for taking such great care of our Nilo! ❤️ We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They kept my dog at their home for 2 days, sent updates and pictures, and were kind and attentive. It was clear my dog was happy and well taken care of. I’m very grateful and would absolutely book with them again.”
“Nachay was incredible from the moment we brought our 8yr old Biscon to her house she made him feel welcome and relaxed. She sent photos every day of his 10 day stay. She completely exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend this amazing & caring woman. 🫶🐩”
“Judy is a phenomenal dog sitter! First experience leaving our Bentley boy with someone other than in his own home and he had a blast! Judy was attentive and learned his personality very quick. We will be leaving Bentley with Judy from now on.”
“Vanessa is extremely great, she text and sent pictures and video how Lyla was doing, I was very comfortable leaving Lyla with Vanessa. Lyla barks frequently when she hear’s mail man, Landscapers etc. Vanessa sent me video Lyla at the door barking, Vanessa wasn’t distracted, Thanks Vanessa for boarding Lyla I was very pleased!!”
“Kayla was very sweet and Penny enjoyed her stay. She kindly offered a pre-visit meet and greet which helped me feel confident leaving Penny with her family. I definitely recommend her to watch your dog!”
“Delmy was wonderful! I had complete peace of mind while away. When I met her and her family I knew they would treat my Coco baby with care! She sent pictures daily of Coco enjoying the perfect enclosed backyard. I would definitely book Delmy again.”
“Sharon and her family made us feel at ease about leaving Coco for the first time since we got him and they treated him like a part of their family for the time he was with them. Coco enjoyed his time with their dog, Duffy. She would send us updates and that made us more at ease. Thank you Sharon for taking care of Coco! Til next time!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog Molly with Vanessa. She was excellent and I felt that my dog was in good hands. She sent me messages, videos and pictures of Molly several times a day.

“Siobhan did a fantastic job taking care of our cat while we were away! She came twice a day, since he needs medicine 2x a day- and we loved seeing what he was up to! Siobhan included a bunch to pics and a summary of what they did together- the whole family loved to see the Rover card appear! I would definitely recommend Siobhan, and we can wait to book her again!”
“Karen is outstanding and I highly recommend her. She took excellent care of our kitties and they love her! I am very pleased with the top notch care they received. I am now, and will be a forever client.”
About: I’m an avid animal lover with years of hands-on experience and you can rest assured when your pets are in my care! I’ve worked as a dog handler for an animal shelter and as a professional dog walker and pet sitter before starting my own business. I now proudly operate Wander Paws LLC, my fully insured pet care company, which I’ve been running independently for over six years. All pet care services are delivered personally by me, because your pets deserve familiar care and happy routines. Many of my clients have been with me for years, and I’ve had the joy of caring for several of their pets since puppyhood! Over time, I’ve looked after countless dogs, cats, and other small animals of all breeds, ages, and temperaments while their parents are home or away. I’m 27 years old and I am focused on building my business! I truly love spending my time taking care of your pets. And when I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my own pack of pets at home: three dogs (a shepherd mix, a lab mix, and a terrier mix) and five rescue cats😊 I would love to provide all your pet care needs, from walks and playtime to feedings and medication. I’m also comfortable with light household tasks like handling keys, operating security systems, scooping litter boxes, bringing in mail, cleaning up pet messes, and keeping your home safe and secure. I will precisely follow the instructions and routines you provide. As a lifelong pet owner, I understand how important it is to leave your pets in the care of someone you trust. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own, with plenty of love, consistency, and attention to detail. 💛 Flat rate care: I never charge extra for multiple pets or puppies. Medication, feeding, and special routines included. ✨ Don’t hesitate to reach out to schedule a free meet & greet. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! AVAILABILITY: I have a daily schedule of dog walking & pet sitting Mondays-Fridays and I am now accepting new clients! I try my best to be very flexible, so please reach out and let me know what times you might need pet care and I will do my absolute best to accommodate whatever you might need. SAFETY: My clients’ safety, (both pets & people!), is my upmost priority. When going for walks, I will make sure your dog(s) is harnessed/leashed up extremely securely. Most of the time, I will attach their leash to BOTH their collar and their harness so if there is ever a product malfunction, they won’t ever get loose. I will walk your fur baby with my full attention and will not allow them to greet other dogs on their walk unless I am 100% sure that both dogs are friendly. I completely avoid any loose dogs that we might see on our walks to avoid confrontation. When letting your pets in the yard, I will always make sure that the gate(s) are securely closed before letting them out. If you have indoor cats, I will make sure they are safe inside of your home at ALL times. I will only feed your pets treats & food that you provide to avoid any allergic reactions. I triple check that all doors to your home are locked while I take your dog(s) out for a walk and after I leave. I am comfortable using any security systems you might have to ensure that your home is completely secure. If you confine your dog to a space for their safety while you are not home, (crate, room, playpen, etc.), I will also triple check that they are secured in that space before I leave. I will do everything in my power to make you & your pet(s) feel as comfortable as possible. Please communicate any safety concerns you might have with me. Your peace of mind is my top priority!
“Suzanne was amazing! She was accommodating, left plenty of photos and detailed notes for us, and most of all, kept our fur baby safe and happy during and after his walks. We've never felt more comfortable, and wouldn't hesitate to book her again!”
“My family and I are so grateful to have connected with Lauren! Having just moved and not knowing anybody in the area to look after our dogs, I was nervous about finding someone to help us out while we were away for a long weekend at the beach. My dogs took to Lauren immediately! She is extremely nice, down to Earth, responsive and reliable. I felt extremely comfortable with her in our home. She sent photos and updates of the pups during her visits as well. Highly recommend and am excited to book her again in the near future!”
“Lily was excellent. She dropped in additional times to ensure our cat was OK even outside of the times we booked her for. She kept us updated and when we arrived back our little girl was content and well. Thank you lily!”
““I can’t recommend enough! She took amazing care of our dog while we were away for a week, providing attentive and loving care in our home. We came back to a happy, well-cared-for pet. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and truly caring, Andrea is the one!” Nothing beats leaving my lil boy home to be cared for while on vacation vs leaving them in a strange cold boarding space . Homecare is the best care . Xoxoxoxo”
“Alex made sure to keep in contact with me during his visits and more. My kittys were fed and had yummy snacks while I was away which was a relief that I didn’t have to worry about them.”
“The best sitter to book with! Xiaoying and her family are excellent and truly the sweetest! I had an overnight cat sitting service with them for a 7 nights and they sent me daily photos and videos and made sure to keep me updated! They also brought so many toys, a cat tree, and cat hideaway spots for my cat. My cat Lucki didn’t want to leave he really liked it there and it’s like his second home now😊 will definitely be rebooking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a pet sitter or boarding service! ❤️”
“Words cannot express how happy we were with the services provided by Seamus. His updates and photos put us at ease that our two cats were being well taken care of. Seamus was attentive and spent quality time with Skittles and Tomasina. When he was concerned about something ( a hairball) Seamus promptly and calmly contacted us. He treated our cats as if they were his own. We will be booking and the cats will be looking forward to their visit from Seamus in the near future.”
“Natasha did an excellent job getting our skittish Springer Spaniel to warm up and make friends while we were away. Natasha was able to get Maisie to calm down and relax by just being calm and sensitive to her fears and protective instincts. We plan to use Natasha again.”
“Our cats are our kids and we hate them being lonely and uncomfortable when we are away. Our newest rescue also seems to not like men so much, so this time when we needed a sitter last minute we reached out to Ella and hit the jackpot!! Ella followed all our directions for feeding etc and kept our house clean while we were away...which isn't easy with 2 cats. Our cats, which can be very shy initially, fell in love with Ella and it put us at ease knowing how happy they were with her and how much they looked forward to seeing her. Highly recommend Ella to take care of your pets. She is very responsible, corresponds with you very well, and loves your pets like her own.”
About: “I’ve had cats for over 10 years and understand that each one has their own personality and needs—whether they’re social and playful or more independent and shy. I’m very attentive to routines and will keep feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, and playtime consistent to help your cat feel comfortable while you’re away

“I will start off by stating Pamela truly a magnetic bubbly human being, her energy alone made me feel safe leaving Keanu in her care. Keanu he felt right at home immediately, and there was an instantaneous connection. Her home is immaculate, a great dog setting which in turn is 100% inviting for all pups. She is a gem and so is her animal loving hubby Jose. The countless videos, pictures are perfect and just makes me feel comfortable throughout his stay with Pamela. She shares her nutritious food and treats and he actually ate well (mini poodle picky eater). You will not be disappointed she is a true animal lover....her vibrant energy begins at her door and just elevates the owner and doggie like magic. Keanu is now a repeat daycare client and would have zero concerns when I need boarding. Thank you PAMELA”
“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!”
“Cindy is always reliable, and we really appreciate her picture/video updates! She takes great care of our Chester, and he loves going to her house. She makes him feel comfortable, and we appreciate the care she provides to our beloved fur baby.”
“It’s always a good sign when Charlie pulls on his lead to get into the sitter’s house. He seems to have enjoyed himself which makes us feel good leaving him with Kristie.”

I have over a year of experience in taking care of cats and over six years of experience in taking care of dogs. The longest time I took care of a cat was for two months. At the beginning, the cat would hide under the sofa for a week, but lately he became completely unrestrained and would lie on the bed together, play hide-and-seek with me, and explore every corner of the house. When the weather was good, the dogs could play freely in the yard. Welcome all cats and dogsto my home, we are the best friends of your pets! We can keep daily routine for all pet's.

“Sarah is an exceptional caregiver for our pup Leela! She was so thorough when we dropped Leela off and made sure every single area that Leela would be in was shown to us. There is tremendous care and intention that Sarah puts into her services and it shows. Leela was at ease being with her, and we will be dropping Leela off to hang out with Sarah, her children, and her pup every time we are in Long Island. Her daughter also drew leela two beautiful drawings and one can tell your pup will be treated like family. She is also very attentive and well versed in caring for a puppy’s needs.”

About: *no longer accepting mid week recurring bookings due to 9-5 job* Hi there! My name is Bre. I have been taking care of pets on and off since I was about 16 and doing rover for a couple of years now. In my teen years I regularly took care of 2 dogs and 3 cats for a family during their vacations. I currently have a 15 year old dog named Kylie. She is definitely a handful but she is my whole world. I am a huge animal person and always have been so I’m more than happy to help families who need it. I travel for work every 2-3 months or so so my schedule is hit or miss. I’m happy to start with meet and greets if that would make you feel more comfortable. I travel roughly every 2-3 months for about a week at a time for work. When I am not traveling I am sometimes able to work from home, though my schedule is not consistent and my main career takes priority. When I can swing it, I’m happy to help! I have a fenced in yard and a friendly senior dog at home. I am happy to do drop ins to give your pet some love any time. My dog has a basic training degree and I have experience with many kinds of dogs.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have always loved taking care of friend’s and family’s dogs! I love going for walks so I’m sure your pup will enjoy that! I’m available to board on all days of the week! I work in clinical research remotely so your dog will get lots of attention and will go for several walks throughout the day. There are no restrictions on drop off or pick up times. We live in a really quiet neighborhood so walks are peaceful! There’s a park where we can walk around and enjoy the outdoors. In our home, we have an open set up and would love for your dog to spend as much time with us as possible. But if your pup needs some alone time, we have a separate area for your pup to decompress. We have a 3 year old toddler who loves dogs! We’ve taught him how to pet pups gently and he loves giving treats! He won’t interact with your dog unless the dog initiates. He stays away from the food and water bowl.
About: For the past few years I’ve been the number one contact in my family to pet sit. From small to large dogs I’ve been paid to feed, walk, and brush them. Additionally, I have experience training and grooming my own dog. I’m a New Paltz student and although I have classes during the week, I am still willing and able to take care of your pets at times where I don’t have class and weekends! Although I cannot care for pets in my own home, I’m very respectful when it comes to entering others homes! The boundaries clients set will always be respected and I take pride in my abilities to properly care for and walk dogs.
“Sharon and Mike took good care of our dog, Callie. They are very nice and accommodating . They have a large backyard where she was able to run around and get plenty of exercise. They also have an ample amount of shade so the dogs don’t get overheated. I highly recommend them to look after your pup.”

“Lily was great with my pup! He really loved spending time with her and was always excited when she came. She did a great job communicating! She made me feel completely comfortable with leaving my pup in her hands. Thanks Lily!!!”
About: I’ve grown up around both dogs and cats and have experience caring for pets for friends and family through walking, feeding, and playing while they’re away. I currently have my own 13 year old cat and previously had a dog, so I’m comfortable with pets of different personalities and energy levels. I’m dependable, attentive, and always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I love meeting new fur babies! :) I’m currently working part time Monday through Wednesday until about 3pm, so I’m usually available in the afternoons and evenings on those days. I also have plenty of flexibility the rest of the week. I take care of my senior cat every day, so I’m already used to feeding, cleaning up, and making sure a pet is comfortable and getting lots of attention throughout the day I’ll take great care of your pet and make sure they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away! I will feed them on time, take them on walks or let them in the yard to get all their energy out! I love playing with all animals as if they were my own :)
“Andrea was punctual, kind, responsible, communicative, and lovely! She took such great care of our dog! Walked, played with, fed, gave treats! Sent photos, videos and texts. Very dependable and responsible. Highly recommend. Would re-hire without a doubt!”
“Suzanne was terrific today! It was our first time having someone walk our dogs, I was a bit worried because I know my older dog can be quite nervous but all of that lifted once I saw them enjoying their walk. She communicates well & sends pics updating you on their walks. I’m so pleased with the care they received! We’re so happy we found someone we can trust with our pups!”
“Having Karen as our dog walker is such a relief. I never have to worry whether or not she's going to get to my house to walk Kailani. Karen is ultra professional super reliable. I recommend her highly.”
About: I have been a Rover sitter for over 3 years now. I have great experience with walking larger, stronger breeds, and am open to house sitting just about any animal. I have been a sitter for cats, dogs, and even lizards. I have a flexible schedule with my schooling being online, and I am good with just about any activity level! From couch potato to energetic pets. I am free for a few visits/walks almost every day of the week. Weekends are better to be communicated with me in advance, but likely free as well. If I have some time in advance, I am always happy to dog/cat sit at your house. I have a very strong/energetic pitbull/dogo mix. He must be stimulated very often, so I go on 2-3 miles walks with him twice daily. My cat is a couch potato himself, and I spend my down time in the home hanging out with him, playing, and watching tv together.
“Ella is very knowledgeable and professional. She pays attention to detail, makes sure to get to know your pet and asks all the right questions to make you feel as if you’ve known her forever and fully trust her with your pet. Lukas very much enjoyed his walk and came back very happy! Thank you Ella!”

About: Have had dogs my whole life. I am very patient and kind to dogs. My wife and I have a fenced yard. Our last dog was 18 years old and we loved her to the end. I’m currently working 4 days a week at home so have plenty of time to play with the dog, feed the dog or let the dog outside to play. I can also walk the dog a few times throughout the day as needed. I have a fenced yard and work from home so can easily watch your dog in a safe environment and will be able to give your pet the attention it deserves.
“Stephanie has been wonderful to work with and we cannot recommend her highly enough. Our pupper enjoys every walk she takes with her. We can really tell that Stephanie cares about our dog and enjoys what she does. When we’ve had issues that we needed to cancel at the last minute, Stephanie was responsive and more than flexible in rescheduling and helping us. As long as Stephanie continues to work on rover, we will continue to do our best to make every accommodation needed to book her every time we need someone.”
“Alec was highly recommended to me and I am so happy to have found him! He clearly loves animals, my dog Remy was thrilled. And he was really flexible with regards to my last minute request. Looking forward to using him again in the future!”

“Michelle is amazing! We are new to the area and had a negative experience with a different sitter previously. I was so nervous to try someone new. We found Michelle and I am SO grateful!! I honestly think our dog didn’t want to leave her house. She sent tons of photos and updates. Our Great Dane is sensitive to new situations and will refuse to eat. Michelle waited with her during each meal so she would eat. She truly went above and beyond and I can not recommend her enough.”
“Krissy is great! She’s very caring and understanding with Blu. Blu is a 50 lb lab mix, who is sweet but tugs on the leash at times. This doesn’t bother Krissy and she works with him. She sends pictures throughout the day. She gives updates as needed throughout the day and at pick up. She’s absolutely wonderful. Blu will spend more days with Krissy for sure. Highly recommend her.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They kept my dog at their home for 2 days, sent updates and pictures, and were kind and attentive. It was clear my dog was happy and well taken care of. I’m very grateful and would absolutely book with them again.”
“Judy is a phenomenal dog sitter! First experience leaving our Bentley boy with someone other than in his own home and he had a blast! Judy was attentive and learned his personality very quick. We will be leaving Bentley with Judy from now on.”
“Vanessa is extremely great, she text and sent pictures and video how Lyla was doing, I was very comfortable leaving Lyla with Vanessa. Lyla barks frequently when she hear’s mail man, Landscapers etc. Vanessa sent me video Lyla at the door barking, Vanessa wasn’t distracted, Thanks Vanessa for boarding Lyla I was very pleased!!”
“Kayla was very sweet and Penny enjoyed her stay. She kindly offered a pre-visit meet and greet which helped me feel confident leaving Penny with her family. I definitely recommend her to watch your dog!”
“Sharon and her family made us feel at ease about leaving Coco for the first time since we got him and they treated him like a part of their family for the time he was with them. Coco enjoyed his time with their dog, Duffy. She would send us updates and that made us more at ease. Thank you Sharon for taking care of Coco! Til next time!”
“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)”
“Highly recommend. My Belgian Malinios/GSD mix can be a handful energy wise. She was great with him and kept me updated with pictures and videos. I am very selective about who I leave my dogs with because I work in animal welfare.I am so thankful to have found a person I can trust to care for Reptar when I’m away. 💙”
“Bridget was great! Super communicative and easy to work with! She was great about any of my crazy- puppy mom concerns and checked in throughout the day to let me know how it was going. Archie will definitely be visiting her again!”
“I used Janine for the first time, and she exceeded every expectation. She was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring, providing regular updates that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter.”
“Taylor took great care of Georgie. He was happy and exhausted when he came home and she kept us updated while we were away. Definitely recommend and would come back to Taylor”
“I highly recommend this sitter! They took amazing care of my two dogs, Whiskey and Midnight, while I was away on vacation. Leaving your pets behind is never easy, but Dilania made the entire experience completely stress-free. Communication was outstanding from start to finish. I received daily updates with pictures and videos, along with thoughtful messages about how the boys were doing. Those updates gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to truly relax and enjoy my vacation, knowing Whiskey and Midnight were in great hands. It was clear she genuinely cared for my dogs and treated them like family. I came home to two happy, well cared for pups, and I couldn’t be more grateful. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, attentive, communicative, and truly loves animals, I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her.”
“Edward was great as he was available throughout the day to give our Nestle his full attention. Edward took Nestle on long walks and played with him until he was tuckered out. Nestle truly enjoyed himself and gave Ed plenty of kisses. We will be using Edward again real soon.”
“Katherine was amazing, she took great care of my two small dogs and gave updates and was very accommodating when my flight was delayed and was able to extend my service. I would highly recommend her!!!”
“Veronica took exceptional care of my two dogs Molly and Oliver. She was very attentive to all their needs and provided a safe, fun environment for their entire stay. I will definitely be using Veronica again.”
