“Mya was great as always! I’ve booked her a few times now and I always feel so comfortable leaving Rosaly and Lily with her. She’s caring, reliable, and they clearly love her. So grateful for her every time 🤍”
“As always, Callie did a fantastic job. She sent me adorable pictures every day that made me feel very comfortable knowing my cat was well taken care of. She is my go-to when we are going out of town and need pet care!”

“Jj is such a fantastic catsitter! She is incredibly caring and thorough, making sure both you and your pets feel comfortable and well taken care of. She's able to navigate any difficult situations that may arise and will always treat your pets as if they were her own. I always feel at ease knowing Jj is caring for my furry crew while I'm away. Highly recommend!”

“Tara was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly friendly, communicative, and so flexible when my return plans changed—I really appreciated how accommodating she was. Rosie clearly bonded with her right away and loved the walks, attention, and care Tara gave her. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Rosie was in such good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Tara again—she’ll definitely be one of the first people I reach out to for future care!”

“Randi took great care of ziva for a last minute business trip. She was very communicative throughout the process and even took the time to do a meet and greet before I left. I loved seeing pictures on my trip and knowing my dog was well taken care of. I will be using her again.”

“Sinan was wonderful with my puppy, Rosie! He was communicative, friendly, and clearly great with young dogs. He was also incredibly accommodating when my errands ran later than expected, which I truly appreciated. I’ll absolutely be using his services again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. 🐶✨”

“Casie did amazing job watching our tuxedo cat with health issues. She gave him his meds twice a day, sent photos, and overall was incredibly thoughtful and caring. Highly recommend her and will have her sit again if we can!!”

“Heather was awesome. She took such great care of Sam and went the extra mile to make sure that my home was taken care of, too. She’s super prompt and courteous, will definitely be reaching out to her for future trips. Thanks, Heather!”

“Lukis was a literal godsend!! I got photo updates during the visit, which I loved, and my cat was so appreciative of the food and attention 😄 I will 1000% be booking with Lukis again, and I highly encourage anyone who needs a pet sitter in this general area to do so as well!! (Side note, if you have a cat that isn’t super friendly, my cat Honey is very particular about new people and strangers and she was completely fine with Lukis—so she also gives the official Stamp of Approval™️).”

“We booked a week-long request with Sydney, with morning/evening visits. We were nervous to be away from our cat for so many days, but Sydney provided many updates and pictures during their time together that we knew he was spending quality time with a kind friend. I’m sure our cat is excited to see Sydney again for the next time she visits, she is very caring and in tune with his needs!”

“Chelsea did an amazing job watching our cats! She had great communication (clear, prompt, kind) both before the booking and during the drop in visits, which was very appreciated! One of our cats is a bit spicy, and the other is super shy, and she did a great job respecting their boundaries while also trying to make sure they were comfy. She clearly is very familiar with cats and has a lot of experience with them. I would recommend Chelsea to anyone who needs a great cat sitter!”

“Bre was wonderful with our two cats, Stella and Griffin! She graciously accepted a last-minute booking without hesitation and kept us at ease the entire time with prompt and thorough communication. The rover card cards were great with notes and photos to keep us updated for each day of or vacation!”


“Jeannette is amazing! My dog and cat are my entire world and she took great care of them and sent the most amazing photo and video updates. Jeanette is great at communication and at what she does. You can tell she cares and enjoys it. Ill be a repeat client for sure.”


“Melanie was great. She let me know when she was stopping by, spent time with my animals and shared pictures. My cats don’t usually come right up to strangers and they clearly felt comfortable with Melanie.”

About: Passionate animal lover with professional pet care experience since 2018. Over the years, I've worked in veterinary clinics, grooming salons as an assistant bather, and in dog daycare settings, giving me experience with pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I'm comfortable with caring for multiple pets at once, administering medications, sticking to an organized walking/feeding schedule, and providing individualized attention to each pet's unique needs. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, long walks, or simply a calm and reassuring presence, I'm committed to making them feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, so I make communication a priority. You'll receive regular updates and plenty of adorable photos that capture the best side of your pet's personality and daily adventures. I treat every pet as if they were my own and look forward to providing dependable, compassionate care for your beloved companions I provide pet care full-time, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule and dedicate plenty of attention to the pets in my care. Because this is my main focus, I am available for daytime, evening, weekend, and holiday bookings. I can accommodate a variety of schedules and am committed to ensuring pets receive consistent care, exercise, companionship, and supervision. I live in a pet friendly community in Midtown. The area includes designated pet relief stations with waste bags readily available, making it easy to keep the environment clean and comfortable. Im only a five-minute walk from a local dog park where dogs can enjoy additional activity and socialization, with owner permission. I prioritize safety at all times by keeping pets supervised, following their regular routines, and ensuring they have a clean, secure, and welcoming environment while in my care
About: Almost all of my experience as a dog owner and sitter is with dogs that have come from shelters or other adopted situations. I have owned “retired” greyhounds that were severely traumatized, I have cared for small dogs with unknown, but clearly extremely difficult, past traumas, and I have stayed and bonded with boxers and pit bulls who are slow to trust but then become bed-hogging cuddlers! Recently, I had my first experience helping train a puppy! I spent five months with a family and their sweet cavipoo house training and leash training. I teach from home and so I am always home! Well, except for the occasional errand, appointment, etc. So, I would love the extra company and the excuse to get out of the house and get some exercise! I live in an apartment building so I do not have a fenced yard. However, I live on Lafayette Park where I walk daily. It is incredibly safe and I have gotten to know many of the pet parents in the building and the neighborhood. I have two five month old kittens that I adopted from a foster home two months ago where they lived with a dog. I am hoping to keep them exposed to other animals so that when I have a larger place, I will be able to expand my family of pets.

About: I worked at Premier Pet Supply for a year and a half, and LOVE dogs!! I am also very active and am used to walking my 50lb pitbull who knows how to pull😂 I am currently a full-time student who works a part-time job! I have a cat who I love and care for, as well as my mother’s dog and numerous family friends who I enjoy pet-sitting for. I am very active so walks are always fun, and I can watch pets overnight as needed! I am in an apartment right now, so dogs would transparently be difficult to board, but in a clients home I have historically done very well! I work 7 hour days 4 days a week currently, which can be adjusted as needed for clients and their pets comfort. I am also very good at following instruction and caring for animals- I used to work at a pet store!
West Village pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sydney did a great job watching my senior cat Jack. He mainly needs attention, and she spent the full 30-minute session after basic needs were taken care of giving him cuddles and spending time with him. I came back to find everything in order and a happy cat. I would absolutely book her again and recommend her!

Jaida provided excellent care for my cats on two occasions. I appreciated her sending me updates and photos after each visit. She followed the routine and care instructions well and the cats seemed relaxed when I returned. I was very pleased with the service and would highly recommend Jaida. Thanks again!

Tara was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly friendly, communicative, and so flexible when my return plans changed—I really appreciated how accommodating she was. Rosie clearly bonded with her right away and loved the walks, attention, and care Tara gave her. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Rosie was in such good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Tara again—she’ll definitely be one of the first people I reach out to for future care!

I could not have asked for a better sitter for my cats. Dan was wonderful. He had to administer meds and feed them. He provided me multiple updates daily. My house was safe. He must have created a safe space because my cats stopped hiding from him and let him pick them up. I will forever be thankful for Dan. I was really stressed as my one cat was ill before I left but Dan made me feel so much better about leaving. Well worth the price

Mya was very personable, communicative, and timely when it came to watching our pup while we were out of town. Rune seemed to really like her and she was willing to give him exercise and affection in addition to the necessities. 10/10, would hire again. Thank you, Mya!

Very thankful to have someone who understands the bully breed so well take care of my older bulldog. Understanding the mentality of a bulldog is really important to be able to take care of my big guy because he really is his breed through and through. Stubborn but sweet. Loved the picture updates and look forward to hiring Erika again.

Areatha went above and beyond for our two cats. One of them had an unexpected eye infection right before we were planning to go on our trip. Areatha was incredibly flexible in making sure our kitty got her meds. She was always on top of communication and sent us photos and videos. I will definitely be booking with her again the next time we go out of town!

Our dogs love Dana! We knew our dogs were in great hands while we were out. Dana was right on time and sent us updates and pictures. We were a little nervous leaving because our one pup doesn’t like thunder and storms were in the area, but Dana was great and made sure Cento wasn’t scared. 😊
