“If you are looking for the best dog sitter Pam is your perfect choice. She is loving, flexible and trusting. Our pooch has been to several sitters, I think he would agree that Pam was exceptional! She was welcoming, treated him as her own and spoiled him even more than we do at home. The daily updates were really appreciated. Definitely will use her again, I didn't have to worry while I was traveling.”
“Anthony!! Thank you, thank you, thank you.. so much taking care of my baby! I was so worried prior to my trip as I was not able to find a sitter and then I saw your profile on the last day before my flight and I am so happy I did. You and your family did an amazing job in taking care of Marley. And I am happy he found a new friend…Bentley! You sent me videos and pics daily and that gave me peace of mind that Marley was safe and having an amazing time. I will be booking again. Again, thank you! !”
“Aliyah was wonderful!! She is very kind and takes great care of the pups! My dog didn’t want to leave! Safe to say he had an amazing time. Thank you so much!”
“This was the first time we left our pet with someone. Julia is absolutely the best. We were comforted right from the start by the initial meeting and from the daily communication she provided. I would recommend Julia with total confidence that she would provide the same experience for any pet owner. Thank you Julia!”
“Christian is a true animal lover and made Benji feel right at home! He was attentive and kept me updated with photos and videos throughout his stay. Glad to have found a trustworthy sitter in the area!”
“What a lovely family. They took such wonderful care of my Blossom. Diana sent me photos throughout Blossom’s stay that left me feeling like I made a good decision leaving her with them. Thank you so much. I know who to call for my next vacation.”
“This was my very first time using Rover and also the first time I’ve ever left my dog with anyone outside of family, so I was a little nervous. From the very beginning, Christina & Frank completely put me at ease. We did a meet-and-greet beforehand, and they were absolutely wonderful with my dog—treating her like their own from the moment we arrived. During her stay, they made sure she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. They were able to administer her medication with no problem, and she seemed so relaxed in their home. Their two dogs were also amazing with her—it was such a comfort to see how well they all got along. I really appreciated the thoughtful updates throughout the day, including texts, photos, and even a video. It meant so much to see her happy and at ease. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience, and I would absolutely trust them with my dog again. Highly recommend!”
“Erich and May were so great to our boy Gage. They sent updates, pictures, and videos while we were away. It was reassuring and a relief that our dog was being loved, and cared for while we were at my son’s tournament for the long weekend. My son felt so happy seeing the updates and videos, he knew his pup was being loved and that he was happy! Thank you again Erich and May!”
“Lauren and Howard were absolutely amazing with my dog Brody! From the start, they were incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and made me feel so comfortable leaving Brody in their care. They kept me updated throughout his stay with lots of adorable pictures and messages, which really put my mind at ease. Brody clearly felt right at home with them and was so happy and well-cared for. I can’t recommend Lauren and Howard enough — they truly went above and beyond! I would 100% trust them to watch Brody again.”
“Thank you so much. Debra was very accommodating to watch my two dogs. She sent pictures and communicated with me to make me feel comfortable. Would recommend she was very loving to my pups!”
“Iris w/her husband took care of my two pups Mia & Milo the last 5 days. They took such great care of them. Milo still a puppy at 13 months & Mia a 10.5. They handled them both with such care. With special instructions for Mia’s medicine to my hyper playful puppy seeking attention often. Iris sent pictures & videos showing me how happy & content they were! They’ll be back with Iris in just a few short days again! I’m so happy that I feel 💯 at ease knowing they’re in great hands!! Highly recommend Iris taking care of your fur babies too.”
“This is my first time booking on Rover and I was a little nervous , we found Diego trough word of mouth and he took great care of our Maxi , he is very communicative with constant updates. Will definitely book again in the future”
“I have to say this was my first experience using Rover and I was a bit nervous. I'm so happy I found Leanora. In just 3 days my puppy learned so much from her. She provided me with updates throughout her stay. Leanora and her family treated my puppy like their own. I'm so happy with my experience and will definitely be using her again. 10 out of 10 highly recommend 👌”
“Telicia was fantastic! You can tell she truly enjoyed having our dog (Buster). Telicia came and met Buster prior to him staying with her, asked questions on what we prefer, his routine, etc. She sent us pictures and videos of him throughout our trip which provided an extra level of comfort knowing he was being taken care of given the love that he looks for. When we picked Buster up we can tell he was very happy, clean, and energized. In the future we will gladly go back to Telicia again without any hesitation!”
About: I've had a dog for the last 12 years and ever since then I discovered my love for animals! I've taken care of dogs, cats and birds. Now that I finished High School I will be home for a while before I start my career in Vet Tech or Dog Grooming However, for now I want to get more time with animals before I start. I have a fenced in yard with a lot of room for your dog to run. We have a fenced in pool however they are more then welcome to go for a swim if that's what they like.
“Michelle and her family took very good care of our Alice while we were away on business. Lots of pictures of her playing with her new friends put us at ease knowing she was having fun and comfortable at Michelle’s! Will define rebook in the future, thank you!!”
“The best Dog sitter we’ve ever had! Not only christina but everyone in her house took such good care of our two pitbull mixes. They ran around and had fun all day and were nice and exhausted for our five hour car ride home. The next time we come to Long Island, we will absolutely call upon her again! THANK YOU, CHRISTINA!”
