“Listen y'all… Alexis is amazing! Her energy was great from the first time we communicated all the way through pick up. She was very present, sent updates and pictures as well as handled anything on the fly when needed without me having to ask. My GG had a lot of fun and really loved her and her boy, Nuke. 10/10.”

“Daniella was great with my two high energy pups! For those not up to the task, my dogs can be challenging, but she was great with them and they came back happy and healthy! She even took the time to work their energy out each day and was very responsive and communicative! Will definitely use her again! My oldest pup didn’t want to leave when I came to pick her up!!!”

“Peggy was absolutely fantastic! She kept us updated the entire time with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Teddy had an amazing time playing in the yard and going on walks—he came home happy and clearly well cared for. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating when we had to extend Teddy’s stay twice due to weather-related travel delays, which we really appreciated. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. We would 100% trust Peggy with Teddy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”


“Monique was awesome! Very responsive and sent regular updates. Our pup had a great time with her and her puppy Behr, hank came home happy and tired! Will definitely be booking with her again.”

“Cullen was great with my lab. He sent lots of photos and updates. I’d definitely look to Cullen again if I need pet sitting in the future. Good communication!”

“Ryan was phenomenal. He was so easy with scheduling, communicated clearly/efficiently, and went out of his way to provide updates. I’d recommend him 100%.”

“Another boarding visit was a success! Geno wasn’t initially feeling well at drop off but being around Allison and the other fur babies was medicine for his soul. He was feeling much better in no time and I’m thankful for Allison and her consistency. Geno loves her and enjoys his visits with her and Carmelo every time!”

“Jana was very kind and loving with Fritura. She also has a dachshund, so Fritura was very happy with his new friend—they played a lot. Thank you, Jana, for taking such good care of my doggy.”

“Our dogs stayed with Rachel for the second time even on a short notice. As usual she took care of ours dogs just like her own. She sent us frequent updates (photos and videos). She's gonna be our permanent dog sitter as long as she's with Rover. Great job Rachel!!!”

“I’ve had Lora watch my six month old kitten twice now & she is absolutely amazing! She sends pictures and updates on what they are doing throughout the day which is so fun to see - Arthur definitely loves his time with her! I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”

“Gus had such a great time with Mathias and Bodhi! I felt so comfortable with choosing him as my Rover since he had experience with frenchies before and owns a short snouted dog himself. I received so many cute updates and pictures throughout his stay and it just made my heart so happy knowing that my dog was being so well cared for while I was away from him for the weekend. We will definitely be calling Mathias first anytime we need care!”

“Yenny already feels like family. She took such amazing care of our two doggies. She brought them everywhere with her and sent multiple pictures of them having fun together. Our puppies loved her and we will be using her anytime we go away now. ❤️”

“Samantha was an absolute lifesaver! I had a last-minute cancellation and needed someone to watch my puppy, Luna, while I went out of town for an emergency. She stepped in without hesitation and provided amazing care. She kept me updated throughout the day, which gave me peace of mind, and it was clear that she truly cared for Luna. I couldn’t be happier with her service, and I’m so grateful for her help. I will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

About: I go by Celeste and I’ve been dog and cat sitting for years and am comfortable with a wide range of temperaments, including pets with special needs. I provide a large, comfortable indoor space designed to keep pets safe and relaxed. I’m also located within a 2-minute walk of two dog parks, allowing for easy access to outdoor time and exercise. For convenience, I offer simple drop-off and pickup with the ability to stay in your car. My focus is always on creating a safe, consistent, and low-stress experience for both you and your pet. I work from home full time, which gives me flexibility to care for your pet throughout the day. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening needs, including late pickups when necessary. I can follow your pet’s routine closely and accommodate longer walks, provide alone time if needed, and providing them ability to roam large apartment. I can handle specific timing requests. While I have no back yard, I have access to multiple dog parks within 2 min walk from my back door. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I maintain a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment and stay fully attentive during walks and visits. I follow all instructions closely, feeding, medications, routines, and stay aware of surroundings, other animals, and any risks. My goal is to create a space where your pet feels secure and you feel confident leaving them in my care.
“Adrienne and Jarrod always do a fantastic job with my pup, Archie. Archie has a complex feeding and care routine, and they handle it with ease. Archie can’t wait to go back!”

“Azia took great care of Tinder and was very responsive the whole time he stayed with her. I could enjoy my vacation trip knowing he was happy and well assisted. Would definitely reach out to her again to take care of Tinder.”

“This was my first time using rover. I am so pleased with Amanda and David. They are great people. I knew as soon as I left that my dog would be in good hands. They sent lots of pictures and updates. I could not imagine finding anyone better.”

Washington Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Julia was perfect! She sent a ton of updates throughout the day, I felt super comfortable leaving my rescue pup with her. My dog seemed to have so much fun with walks, car rides, snuggles and lots of play time. She was also good about giving him his daily medication as well. Would recommend to anyone and will be using her again!

Amanda always goes above and beyond caring for my Gio and keeps me updated the whole time, which makes me feel completely at ease. The sweetest surprise was that she made me a Mother’s Day card with Gio’s picture in it, and honestly that nearly ended me emotionally. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, thoughtful, and caring!

Cait-Lynn is phenomenal. Her communication is really great and consistent. Her love for animals is apparent. I was a bit hesitant to have someone watch my dog, but Cait-Lynn really made the whole process easy giving a lot of peace of mind. She had a ton of good reviews when I researched and I can see why. My dog had the best time. I will definitely be using her again in the future.

Highly recommend booking with Chay to take care of your fur babies!! We left our sweet girl with her for the weekend, and I’m so happy we did! She sent us plenty of updates and photos during the weekend which made us feel at ease. Our dog loved getting to run around her fenced in back yard and play with her sweet bernadoodle! Will definitely book with her again!

Amazing dog sitter! She kept me updated, took great care of my dog, and made the whole experience stress-free. My dog was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. You can tell she genuinely love animals. I would definitely trust her again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!

Paige is such a great dog-sitter! She watched our slightly anxious pup, Belle for over a week while we were abroad. Paige sent pics of Belle everyday and we could tell she was very happy and content! She especially loved sunbathing and sniffing around Paige’s spacious backyard, and the walks Paige provided along the greenway, right across the way! You can tell that Paige has a deep love for our furry friends. She asked many questions during our meet and greet, to make sure she really understands Belle’s needs. Thanks to Paige, we were able to enjoy our trip without worrying about the care Belle was receiving. We loved hearing how Belle snuggled with Paige every night! We could tell Belle felt safe and right at home with Paige. We look forward to having Paige watch Belle again someday and would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for loving pet care!
