“Ganesh did a great job taking care of my dog Luna for over 2 weeks when I was on vacation. She's happy and looks great, unlike another dog I had that I left in a shelter a few years ago. He provided frequent updates and pictures so I didn't have to worry about her. I highly recommend him for your dog sitting needs.”
About: Hey there! I am a young professional with a passion for animal rescue. I have been involved in animal welfare all my life, and am currently a foster for a local rescue. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and abilities. Nothing scares me! Whether it’s a running buddy or a couch cuddle you are looking for, I can provide whatever is needed for your fur baby. Currently I am offering boarding only. I have experience with physical therapy, oral medications and injections, incontinence, and anything else for special needs pups. I am willing to do whatever it takes to make sure your babies are loved while you are away. I work hybrid, so am able to provide multiple play/potty breaks throughout the day! I have 1 office day, but can sometimes drop by at lunch. While I am gone, pups are crated or kept in separate areas to ensure everyone’s safety. Between fostering, dog sitting, and my own dog, my life revolves around animals. Your fur baby will be well loved and well cared for no matter what. I have a large fenced in yard, and a rescue dog and cat of my own. If you bring your dog over to my home, they will have free roam of the house if they’d like! I will intro them to the current pack that is living there, and find their “play group”. I understand not all dogs get along with each other (they don’t need to!) and so if needed provide separate play groups that rotate so everyone can be safe and comfortable. If your pup needs some time to adjust, my guest room is considered the “dog room” in my house. There are crates, toys, couches, blankets, and a separate decompression area should they need that. I understand dog behaviors well, and have a very adaptable home to whatever your babies may need!
“Jenna was fantastic, flexible, and fluid in all communication. We were in a pinch from out of state and she responded immediately, was willing to do a meet prior to ensure it was all ok and coordinated with multiple people in my family for drop offs and pick ups throughout the long weekend. She sent pics consistently with context and updates and you could see how at home our sweet Geti girl became after settling in. She really observed Geti to ensure she was as comfortable as possible and gave her all the cuddles. Geti was able to go freely in and outside and relax by the window. We would recommend Jenna to anyone needing some pup sitting or care!”
“Lorraine provided a wonderful home-away-from-home for my senior dog. She certainly gave him the royal treatment and he clearly enjoyed his stay with her. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my dog was happy and comfortable. Everything about our experience using Lorraine's dog hosting service was exceptional. She provided quick updates and photos of our dog having fun, which we really enjoyed while away. She was also very flexible and responsive to communications. I highly recommend Lorraine as a dog host!”
“We will definitely be using Sam to care for Finley whenever we have a need! Sam was responsive to all messages, sent regular updates about Finley while in her care and clearly demonstrates a passion for caring for animals. Highly recommend!”
“Our dog’s stay was fantastic. It was like a vacation for him. Was very comforting to know he was in such good hands while we were away. We got updates daily with pictures and videos. Communication was great and drop off and pickup were seamless. 100% will be a repeat customer!!”
“Enrica and her husband are above and beyond, they are super warm and welcoming! Both meet & greet arrangement and App communications are smooth and swift. They care and treat your pet as their own. My dog enjoys spending time with them so much!”
“Emily was amazing! Rocky immediately took to her and made himself at home. She also sent update pictures of my dog having the time of his life over the weekend. 🤣 Would definitely book with her again.”
“My girl came home happy and she didn't want to leave her vacation! Erica was communicative and sent a picture or video almost every day which I told her gave huge comfort to my toddler. She delivered all of Coco Chanel's meds without incidence (and even gave her bi-weekly subcutaneous shot). Thank you Erica, we will book with you again!”
“We left our yorkie, Richie with Julia for over a week and Julia took great care of Richie, took him on regular long walks, shared pictures and videos of Richie and ensured that he ate well and kept him comfortable in her home. Thanks to Julia we were worry free about Richie on our vacation”
“Sarah was wonderful! Easy to communicate with, quick to respond. She was so great with Rusty, I could tell when I picked Rusty up she had been loved on! Got a picture everyday. I would definitely use Sarah again!”
“Had great experience with Jess. She took good care of my dog. From the pictures she sent me, I can tell my dog was super happy. Highly recommended Jess to anyone who is looking for a sitter or boarding service.”

“It means so much to me that I can go away and know that my two elderly cats with many medical needs are in good hands. Maria is so gentle and sweet with them and makes sure all of their needs are met and medications are given. I am so grateful for her!”
“Lila was wonderful, thoughtful and gentle with Sparky. We came home and he was happy and we felt that he was well taken care of. The daily check ins were fun and we felt comfortable and relaxed that he was with a kind and compassionate person. Thank you again for all you did.”
“Jordan is great to work with. She is reliable, knowledgeable about doggies and cares about my Luna. She is great communicating with me as she responds quick and keep me updated with her notes and pictures. I’ll continue to schedule Jordan to take care of Luna on a weekly basis.”
“Erin was a great cat sitter! She had an excellent rapport with Mozart and made him feel very comfortable around her. Her daily reports were very welcome and thorough. Plenty of pictures were quite nice showing Mozart having a good time with Erin. Will definitely hire her again!”
“Robin makes our trips so much more relaxing knowing she’s taking such great care of our cats. She sends great updates and pictures and is super responsive. Robin is the best!”
“Steve is fantastic. He is very responsive, reliable, and goes out of his way to be helpful. His obvious love of dogs shines through, and our puppy clearly felt it, too. We have a fear-reactive young pup who up until now has not allowed anyone but family to pet her (including two dog trainers), so I was delighted (and relieved) that she felt comfortable enough with Steve to play with him and even allow him to pet her belly within the first visit. I can’t recommend him highly enough!”
“Lauren eased all my worries about leaving my baby alone for a long weekend knowing he would be well checked in on. She was fabulous with communication and followed my not so simple (haha) automatic food timer directions to be sure he was fed properly the remaining days until I got home. Will definitely be reach out to her again in the future!”
“Tiara was wonderful taking care of our two cats! When our one cat was experiencing separation anxiety she immediately agreed to add a few more check ins to check on him! A+++ sitter; highly recommend!”
“Grace was amazing with our very shy dog. Our pup warmed up to her very quickly and we feel very comfortable with her caring for Birdie. She takes some great pictures and gives us a detailed report after check ins. Highly recommend Grace if you are looking for someone to care for your pets!”
“We love Chelsea! She always sends adorable photos and is so detailed on how her visit went. It is so nice to not worry about your fur baby when you are away from home. Chelsea is the best!”
“Kailyn took very good care of our two precious cats while we were away. She sent us LOTS of photos every day. Honestly, we’re not sure what was cuter – – the pictures of our kitties, or the fact that Kailyn took so many! Thanks, Kailyn and Rover!”
“Ally is fantastic! She’s cat sat for us twice so far while we've been away. She’s attentive to detail, great with animals, prompt, professional and personable. Her rates are extremely reasonable, especially for the level of service she provided us. Thus inspiring me to leave her extra for her expert services. I highly recommend her!”
About: As a cat owner myself, I know every cat has their own little personality! I've cared for cats over the years and am comfortable with everything from feeding and litter box cleaning to playtime and cuddles. Whether your cat is social and playful or prefers to do their own thing, I'm happy to follow their routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your cat is in good hands.
“They took excellent care of our two cats. Showed up every day, did the food exactly as needed, gave then attention and played with them. No complaints at all and will definitely look to them again if we ever need cat sitting.”
“As Nichiren Shoshu Buddhists (nstny.org) we were very concerned about leaving the care of our cats to just anyone. Instantly upon meeting Alyssa we knew she was the one. Alyssa's care for our cats made it much easier for us to dedicate our time to our pilgrimage to The Head Temple at Taisekiji, Japan, always knowing the cats were in excellent hands. With every visit she sent us updates and pictures as well as reports of their temperament and condition. She played with and interacted with them which made their adjust to our return quick and easy.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Pomeroy
“Our terrier mix puppy has been going to Grace’s for a few weeks now (2x weekly for a full work day) and I can’t say enough good things! My husband and I found Grace because on the days my husband can’t come home during lunch, we didn’t want our puppy to be crated or left unattended all day. Grace and her family treat our puppy like their own dog, she becomes part of their family while she’s there. She gets tons of playtime, attention, affection. I absolutely love seeing the “report card” pictures after each day. It’s very clear my puppy is well cared for during her visits. It’s now to the point when we’re pulling up to Grace’s, our puppy gets excited because she knows where she’s at! 10/10 recommend!”
“It was our first time using Rover, but Alyssa helped explain everything and made us feel comfortable. She was also flexible about changing the initial date. We really appreciated how well Jude and Maddie were taken care of for the day! They seemed to have a great day!”

“Karen provided excellent care for my daughter’s dog Pippin! Pippin can be anxious but she was right at home with Karen and her dogs. Karen sent us lots of pictures and updates and was an overall outstanding dog sitter!”
“Megan and Vitaliy are true dog lovers. They take care of my two boys as if they were their own. When my puppy wouldn’t eat, Megan hand fed him to ensure he ate for the day. I love that they can run around outside in their huge fenced in yard…. And because their dogs, Clover and Cooper are also small like my boys, they are supervised outside at all times due to the hawks in the area. My boys come home tired from playing and having so much fun. I would recommend Megan and Vitaliy to anyone for the care they provide.”
“New favorite sitter! Our boxer can be very anxious, especially her first few times somewhere. Arfel took such wonderful care of her and shared lots of pictures and updates. Ive never felt more comfortable leaving my dog somewhere before. We did a meet and greet before to ensure the dogs all got along. They have a huge fenced in back yard and deck. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. We currently have a 3 year old puppy of our own! She is a wild girl but I love her to death and she’s my world. I switched from remote work to full time in the office so I am tag teaming with my fiancé with taking care of our pup and any requests. When I’m not working, I can watch dogs on the weekends and after work. I will keep my calendar updated. I let my own puppy roam during the day. She sleeps with us at night as well. We accommodate dogs on how they are treated at their own homes.

“I left Bagel for two separate days while in ocean city on vacation. Nicolette was very sweet and attentive to bagel, making sure she was comfortable and happy while we were out having fun. She updated us constantly on the walks, the food situation, and in general kept us well informed so we could feel good about her situation. Thanks for helping us to enjoy our time here.”

“Stephen went above and beyond! Took great care of our dogs during some extreme heat, terrible thunderstorms and power outages. Great communication. So glad we hired Stephen.”
About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs, I was the kid who wanted to meet every pet I came across, and that passion has only grown into adulthood. Along with having my own two dogs and cat, I've spent years caring for the pets of friends and family, treating each one as if they were my own. I also worked as a stablehand at a local farm, where I cared for a wide variety of animals—including cats, dogs, horses, donkeys, goats, cows, and even swans. I've also volunteered with dog walking programs in the city, giving me experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. As a pet owner myself, I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your beloved companion with someone new. That's why my goal is to provide the same love, patience, and attention that I would want for my own pets. I believe communication, reliability, and attention to detail are incredibly important when caring for animals, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality and routine. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cozy couch cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal schedule, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Caring for animals has always been more than a job to me—it's something I truly enjoy, and I would love to help you! Pet care fits easily into my routine! I work a typical 9–5 during the week and have some flexibility for evening visits, but I primarily focus on pet care on weekends. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to each pet and provide reliable, attentive care while you're away. I believe pets are happiest when they're able to stick to their normal routine, so I always do my best to follow each owner's instructions and provide care that's tailored to their pet's needs. Whether I'm stopping by for visits, going on walks, or caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'll keep up with feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, medications if needed, and of course provide plenty of attention and updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Kendall has been wonderful with my rescue pup who’s experiencing a lot of separation anxiety since we moved and I’ve been having to travel for work a few days a week. She’s very communicative and I can tell she takes great care of all the pets that are in her charge. I would highly recommend Kendall for your pet sitting/walking needs any time!”
“Grace takes such good care of Winnie when they walk together. Winnie has a real drive to chase hunnies and Grace is always prepared. Winnie loves when Grace comes to visit!”
“I would highly recommend Taylor and Camarrone. This was my first time having someone walk Marley. They kept me informed on a daily basis and quickly answered any questions I might have had. would highly recommend them and I will use them again,,”
“Our dog Logan can be a handful, especially on walks, but Vu takes great care him! He's friendly, reliable, respectful of our home and always communicates with us. We enjoy having him walk Logan and would definitely recommend him to others!”

Aside from my internship I have a free and flexible schedule meaning your pets will have my full attention. I provide services in my clients home. I will promise to keep your pets schedule as similar to the one they have when you are at home as possible. This ensures they don't have a messed up routine or schedule when you get back home.

About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember. There were always multiple cats and dogs in my home growing up.

We have a fenced in dog run which is very secure. If I am coming to your home I will follow any and all guidelines you have to make sure your pet is safe and happy and loved while you are away.

About: Hello! I have been in the animal care industry for almost two decades. During this time I was certified as an Animal Care Technician. My training taught me proper handling, how to read body language, and how to gauge temperament in each pet. I have dealt with dogs and cats of various sizes and ages. Other qualifications that set me apart include administering medication to pets, bathing dogs, and teaching dogs basic commands. While visiting your pet I can provide light house-keeping. I have a genuine passion for animals, and hope to someday pursue a career in the field. Thank you for your consideration! Looking for pets who need lunch visits/walks! I enjoy taking care of pets in my spare time. I relish getting out of my house as I currently work from home. I try to treat every pet as if it were my own. When coming into a client's home, I am respectful, and try to leave things in better condition than I found them.
“JOY is completely qualified to walk and care after your fur baby :) she is extremely responsive and accepting of any special needs your pup may need. Joy will help teach your dog cute little tricks and basic obedience Under leash. You would be silly not to let joy walk your pups 7 days a week!! I promise you will not be dissatisfied with her professionalism and doggy knowledge.”
“My boyfriend and I were in a pinch and needed someone to take care of our dog while we were out of town for the night... we sent Alyssa a message and she responded immediately... she even came to meet our dog before her scheduled walks with him. We were so impressed by the care she provided for our little guy! She gave updates after each walk and included pictures too (because who doesn't like seeing pictures of their dog when they're not there?!) We cannot thank Alyssa and her family enough for taking such good care of a dog. We highly recommend hiring Alyssa! From the short time we met her, we had nothing but good feelings and if our dog could talk, I'm sure he would say he recommends her, too! Thanks so much again, Alyssa! You are the best!”

I understand not all dogs get along with each other (they don’t need to!) and so if needed provide separate play groups that rotate so everyone can be safe and comfortable. If your pup needs some time to adjust, my guest room is considered the “dog room” in my house. There are crates, toys, couches, blankets, and a separate decompression area should they need that. I understand dog behaviors well, and have a very adaptable home to whatever your babies may need!
“Jenna was fantastic, flexible, and fluid in all communication. We were in a pinch from out of state and she responded immediately, was willing to do a meet prior to ensure it was all ok and coordinated with multiple people in my family for drop offs and pick ups throughout the long weekend. She sent pics consistently with context and updates and you could see how at home our sweet Geti girl became after settling in. She really observed Geti to ensure she was as comfortable as possible and gave her all the cuddles. Geti was able to go freely in and outside and relax by the window. We would recommend Jenna to anyone needing some pup sitting or care!”
“We will definitely be using Sam to care for Finley whenever we have a need! Sam was responsive to all messages, sent regular updates about Finley while in her care and clearly demonstrates a passion for caring for animals. Highly recommend!”
“Our dog’s stay was fantastic. It was like a vacation for him. Was very comforting to know he was in such good hands while we were away. We got updates daily with pictures and videos. Communication was great and drop off and pickup were seamless. 100% will be a repeat customer!!”
“Enrica and her husband are above and beyond, they are super warm and welcoming! Both meet & greet arrangement and App communications are smooth and swift. They care and treat your pet as their own. My dog enjoys spending time with them so much!”
“Emily was amazing! Rocky immediately took to her and made himself at home. She also sent update pictures of my dog having the time of his life over the weekend. 🤣 Would definitely book with her again.”
“My girl came home happy and she didn't want to leave her vacation! Erica was communicative and sent a picture or video almost every day which I told her gave huge comfort to my toddler. She delivered all of Coco Chanel's meds without incidence (and even gave her bi-weekly subcutaneous shot). Thank you Erica, we will book with you again!”
“Sarah was wonderful! Easy to communicate with, quick to respond. She was so great with Rusty, I could tell when I picked Rusty up she had been loved on! Got a picture everyday. I would definitely use Sarah again!”
“Had great experience with Jess. She took good care of my dog. From the pictures she sent me, I can tell my dog was super happy. Highly recommended Jess to anyone who is looking for a sitter or boarding service.”
“Kaylee was awesome to work with, from the time we 1st contacted her for a meet and greet with her dog and ours, to the day we picked her up. Communication was great, letting us know how our girl was doing and pictures daily +. We will definitely use again if/when the need arises. Thank you Kaylee for loving on Zoey like she was your own. ❤️”
“I really appreciated all the pictures Lisa sent of my dog Scarlett. Everything seemed to go smoothly and I had no concerns about Scarlett’s care. I would recommend Lisa!”
“Curtis took really good care of our dog while we were away. He was really excellent with updating us with pictures and how our dog was doing. Curtis made my dog feel comfortable and at ease. If i ever need a dog sitter, Curtis will be my first choice.”
“Nichole was amazing. This was our first time with Nichole and we could not have been more happier. Our dog had a great time and came home happy. Nichole was super responsive & we were provided with timely updates with photos. Thank you.”
“This was our second time and she is wonderful to work with and sends us pictures of our pup while we are away. We liked seeing him running around the big yard with her pup, playing tug a war, and then snuggling on the sofa. Great trip!”
“Zen had a very nice stay with Tim and his family. She LOVES kids and Tim provided plenty of opportunities for playtime with them and with his 2 small dogs. Drop-off and pickup were super easy. It was a nice bonus to receive a couple pictures of Zen while we were away. We would certainly select Tim again if he is available! 😀”
“As always, Dani and Anthony took great care of Hero while I was away. Dani sent me a picture of Hero lying in a doggy bed and he looked so happy. Dani and Anthony are my “go to“ Rover family.”
