“Maggie is great with Maverick! Maverick is very comfortable and happy while we were away. Maggie took great care of our house and kept everything very clean. We have used Maggie for multiple trips and walks and we will definitely continue to!”


“Anahi was great with taking care of our pup and cat. They were quick, friendly and professional from start to finish. Our pup, Frankie requires extra attention and Anahi handled everything great and updated us during the sit.”


About: From Kennels to Cuddles—I’ve Done It All! 🐾 Hi, I’m Nyaa! I’ve worked as a kennel tech and spent years doing private pet sitting, so whether your pup loves fetch or belly rubs, I’ve got it covered. I know how to handle all kinds of furry personalities with patience, play, and plenty of love. Think of me as your dog’s new favorite human! Also i’m very good with senior and disabled care !! Available mornings to early evenings for walks, potty breaks, feedings, cuddles, playtime, and updates—your pet’s daily routine stays fun, safe, and stress-free with me, and for you I provide safe, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs—whether in my home or yours. I follow feeding, walk, and play routines closely, offer plenty of affection, and keep their environment clean and comfortable. I also send regular updates so you always know your furry friend is happy and well cared for.

About: I started caring for dogs and cats when I was 8 years old, watching my neighbors pets when they were away. My college degree in Animal Science taught me the background information needed to care for medically complex animals, such as dogs with diabetes or cats with FeLV or FIV. I have experience administering injections, giving pills, wound care, and other medical treatment. If you’re looking for an experienced pet sitter to care for your beloved friend, look no further! I work remotely and can spend as much time with your pet as you need. On the weekends I have even more flexibility! Any time you need someone to take care of your pet, I’ll be available. I take safety very seriously and take precautions to ensure the safety of your pet and my own safety. When I first meet your pet, I introduce myself very slowly and pay close attention to body language. When pet sitting in someone else’s home, I always double check locks while entering the home and leaving to ensure that no strangers can enter and no pets can get out.

About: I’m a certified animal lover with a fur baby of my own (Henry, 9lb of quiet sweetness) that I’ve been caring for over 10 years. I own a wedding photography business that allows me to work from home 90% of my year. If I am booked on a specific day during your booking, I will let you know ahead of time so you can approve or deny the amount of hours I will be gone for that day (which can be anywhere from a 1-hour session to a full 10-hour wedding). I have experience as a dog owner, but have also spent many of my years dog and cat sitting for my friends and family. I raised and trained my parents puppy, a Bichon Frise Shih Tzu mix who needed lots of care to control his barking and playful nature, now 6 years old and so loving. I’m experience with a range of ages and needs, including puppies and elder animals with special care needs. I love dogs, as you can tell, and have all the time in the world to watch and play with them! I prefer dogs and cats have been handled and are used to being cared for, with no history of lashing out or biting. Whether you need me to cuddle, feed, brush, walk, or play with your pup, I'm your gal. Note: while I take a combo of meds for my dander allergy and have a high tolerance, I ask that any animals/homes with animals with high shedding be appropriately groomed and cleaned before sitting. If I stay in your home, a vacuuming or light cleaning does wonders. If your fur baby is boarded in my home, a bath or deshedding session beforehand is much appreciated. I work from home, so pet care can be a day round activity for me. If I am sitting in your home or doing check ins, I can stay or come by as frequently as needed, given availability based on any events or sessions I have previously booked. I will always communicate with pet parents about the needs for their specific fur baby. I understand all needs are unique, so aside from common sense (walks, feedings, playing), I’ll make sure to tailor their care as needed.

“Kelsey was just what we needed for our 1 year old Zuzu’s She was capable on time and communicative. Zuzu took to her right away. Zuzu ate all her meals which can sometimes be challenging. We look forward to having Kelsey’s care for Zuzu again.”


“Alexis did great with our 6 month old puppy. She was prepared and loved her energy. She brought her on walks, fed her, and made sure she got bathroom breaks and lots of play time. We will definitely be using Alexis again!”


“April was so amazing dog sitting Dusty. She was kind and very helpful, considering Dusty is an older puppy with some ailments and medication needs. She took great care of Dusty and he loved being with April. I would recommend her to anyone!”


“We were first-time Rover users when we booked Jennifer to watch our two large dogs for the weekend in our home. One of our dogs is a rescue and has some of her own behavior challenges (dog reactive) and the other is slow to warm up to new people. Luckily, Jennifer is a natural with animals, and has experience with dogs working on their manners; this allowed her to quickly become well-liked by our small pack. She was more than willing to do a meet and greet or two, gave many updates, and spoiled our dogs while we were away. I highly recommend Jennifer. We will certainly be booking her again when we need a sitter.”

About: Being a lover of all animals and pets, I’ve had the pleasure of being a dog and rabbit owner. From walking friends’ dogs to falling in love with every dog I meet around town, I will make sure your fur babies are treated like the princes and princesses they truly are. No request is too big! Super flexible schedule working as a free lance entrepreneur part time. I am currently available for walks and dog sitting every weekday, and weekends if needed. I know that each pet has their own unique needs and quirks, so no matter what your pet needs are, I will do my best to be thorough and attentive. Having a medical background, I have no issues with giving medication if needed as long as you provide me specific instructions or your fur baby’s preferences.

“Outstanding care for two special‑needs cats, last‑minute booking, and stellar communication! Skye did a truly fantastic job watching my two cats, both of whom need extra care. One is blind, and the other is diabetic and receives twice‑daily subcutaneous injections, and Skye administered medications exactly on schedule. From the start, Skye was incredibly kind, flexible, and professional—especially given how last‑minute the booking was due to an emergency. I received regular updates, which were so reassuring. I appreciated knowing that medications were given on time, feeding routines were followed, and my cats were comfortable and safe. The initial meet-and-greet was warm and professional, which immediately put me at ease. Skye’s attention to our cats’ special needs was exactly what we were hoping for in a sitter. Thank you so much, Skye — your flexibility, compassion, and reliability are deeply appreciated. I would absolutely book again and highly recommend your care to anyone who has pets with medical or unique needs”


“Melissa was excellent with our old quirky nervous Maltese, who had a very difficult life a while ago. She had a good sense of protecting him, caring for him and giving him space. By the end of the day he was eating out of her hand and playing with her with his favorite toy. We could not have been more pleased.”


About: I have taken care of dogs for most of my adult life. My wife and I have made a point to adopt large older dogs that tend to be stuck in the shelter system. All dogs are good and deserve to live a fun filled, happy, and loved life. Im currently working part time three nights during the week so I have plenty of free time to take care of your pups. Having recently lost our beloved Mastiff, I've been craving some pup time. I have a fully fenced in yard and have plenty of room to crate your pups. We recently lost our dog so we are pet free.

“Brandon was amazing! He came over to meet Bella before the potential sit to make sure they were a good fit. During the stay, he kept everything tidy and sent daily updates. Bella was a very happy girl for the weekend. Highly recommend!!”

“Folks, I can't recommend Heather more if I tried! She was phenomenally responsive, caring, and super diligent about each and every detail. I had major surgery, so working with Heather was one big area I didn't have to think twice about. The cats LOVED her. I could tell because when I came home they didn't even look at me twice. ;-)”

Janya R.
“I have a total of 10 dogs. 4 cane corsos, a presa canario, and 5 pitbulls, ranging from 32lbs to 130lbs. Janya has been an amazing pet sitter for us over the years. She has made certain to crate and rotate them when necessary, she paid attention to their dietary, allergy, and medication needs, she was always prompt and caring for every visit. She is exceptionally trust worthy and stayed in my home during multiple vacations to take care of the babies while I was away. She made sure to pay special attention and one-on-one time to each and every one of the babies. Never had a problem with the pet cams being there. She is a wonderful pet sitter and we are sad she moved away and wish her nothing but the best in her future endeavors. Who ever gets her as a sitter will be very lucky to have her.”


Alexandria W.
“I have known Allie for over 20 years, and during those years I have seen her love and compassion for all animals. She has watched my pets numerous times when my family and I would go on vacation, and we all felt confident that our fur babies were in the best possible care. Allie views pets as part of the family deserving of love, while also respecting that they are, at the end of the day, animals. There was never a single issue during the countless times Allie watched my pets (cats and dogs); she treated them like her own and sent my family and I photos throughout our trips. I have watched her and her fiancé flourish taking care of their new dog, providing him with love, walks, nutritious food, and plenty of pets. Allie understands that adopting a pet is a substantial commitment and has shifted her life around to make sure her new dog receives everything he needs. When she lived in Brazil she would spend her hard earned money to take street dogs to the vet so they could get proper care. It doesn’t matter if an animal is hers, someone elses’, or compete strays - she will take care of any animal in need. Allie is truly one of the most sincere animal lovers I know and any pet under her care will be taken care of with the utmost devotion.”


Emely T.
“I was honestly super anxious about leaving my cat AND dog with someone I didn’t know, but Emely made it so easy. She asked thoughtful questions, didn’t judge me for being a little extra lol, and even gave me photos, videos, and check in updates without me having to beg. My cat (who hates everyone) came out and sat on her lap on day 2?! Unheard of. Also her place is super cozy and clean. If you’re picky about who watches your fur babies, she’s your girl.”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Jennifer Berkowitz and the exceptional care she provides as a dog walker. From day one, Jennifer has shown professionalism, reliability, and—most importantly—a genuine love for animals. My dog, Zorro , absolutely adores her and gets excited every time she arrives. Jennifer goes above and beyond, making sure Zorro gets not just exercise, but also attention, affection, and mental stimulation during their walks. She’s punctual, communicative, and always keeps me updated with photos and notes about their time together. It gives me total peace of mind knowing Zorro is in such capable and caring hands. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, I wholeheartedly recommend Jennifer. She’s truly the best!”
