Amy took great care of my dog and cat. I can’t explain what a relief it was to find her. My mini dachshund is 16 years old and I don’t like to bring him into new environments or away from his best friend pelé the cat, so it worked out perfectly. I would highly recommend Amy!

Jennifer did a great job caring for my cat Loni and I would not hesitate to engage her again. She was very understanding of my cat’s temperament and treated her with care and consideration. She even visited during a horrible snowstorm to make sure Loni was taken care of!

About: I’ve had a special love for animals that started at a young age. For years, friends and family have trusted me to feed, walk, and care for their pets while giving them plenty of love and attention. I currently have four dogs and a parrot, and I’m very comfortable caring for pets of different personalities and needs. I also previously worked at an emergency veterinary hospital as a receptionist, where I learned a lot about pet health, behavior, and the importance of following care instructions closely. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs, and I always treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life. I care for my own dogs every day, so feeding, walks, playtime, and routines are second nature to me. I plan my schedule to allow time for drop-in visits and make sure each pet gets my full attention during our time together. I’m reliable, organized, and flexible, and I treat every visit as a priority, not something rushed or squeezed in. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and carefully follow all instructions provided. I make sure pets stay on their usual routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any medication schedules. I give them plenty of attention and affection to help them feel comfortable while their owner is away. I also keep the home tidy and provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind.

About: I’ve had the joy of working with animals for over 10 years, and caring for them truly makes me happiest. I’ve worked as a dog groomer, gained hands-on experience in veterinary settings, and provided pet sitting and dog walking services for so many wonderful pets and their families. I’m comfortable with dogs, cats, reptiles, bunnies, and animals of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I absolutely love dogs, every breed, every quirk, every goofy smile and I genuinely love all animals with my whole heart. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away.

About: I've spent a lot of my adult years with dogs around and have been trusted many times by family. I've had my husky, Togo, spend the week with me multiple times while my dad has been on vacation or just because I wanted to spend time with him while I was up at school in my DPT program or in undergrad. I also have some experience working in an animal hospital! I'm currently not working, so I'll have plenty of time to care for your beautiful pets! I would be available weekdays and weekends. I can easily adapt to schedules and needs of your pets to make it the best experience possible for them! I like to set expectations prior so there isn't any miscommunication and always having an open line of communication throughout. I will always send pictures and updates of your pets too.

About: Experienced, compassionate caregiver. I currently provide in-home care services to seniors but I do have prior experience both animal and babysitting. The experience that I have has strengthened my patience, communication, and attention to detail — qualities that give not only your pet but you a piece of mind! As of right now I work a standard 9-5 on weekdays (M-F) and am off Saturdays and Sundays! Any time outside of those hours truly work for me but the agency that I work for is super flexible Creating and being in a safe and trusted environment is one of my top priorities. My basic care entails being responsible, patient but most importantly being attentive; tailoring to each and every animals’ needs

About: Hi, I’m Maya! I've had a dog for over 5 years, taught him all of his tricks, pet sit regularly for friends, and have had multiple cats throughout my life (even adopted our current cat, Taro). I have plenty of experience with dogs of many sizes and personalities at my previous doggy daycare job, where I’d supervise/care for/play with 15+ dogs at a time. My position required extensive training on dog body language, their various forms of communication, and to detect different types of illnesses. Ever since I was a child, I loved to learn about the many different breeds of cats, dogs, and other animals! As a full-time student at Suffolk CC, along with working a part-time job, my schedule on the weekdays may be a bit hectic. Please feel free to ask any questions you have, all I ask is that we work together to make things work. I’m a flexible person and will always do my best to accommodate you and your pets! I follow any requests you may have for your pet--- ensuring comfort, safety, and love for them. With my knowledge of dog body language, I’ll do my best to make sure your pup feels safe with me, and of course respect any boundaries they may have. Our homes are our safe place, as such I will guarantee total cleanliness and respect within it.

About: I have had dogs since I was 3. Any time any friends and family of mine need their pets watched they ask me. During junior and senior year of high school I was enrolled in boxes for veterinary assisting where we cared for large and small animals including dogs, cats, horses, livestock, exotics, reptiles, and rodents. I am currently in college in the mornings but I am free the majority of my day. I take care of my own animals including a cat, two ferrets, a snake, and several fish. I have plenty of time to care for others as well. I will make sure every animal have under my supervision will remain safe and happy. I will ensure every house is in the same condition it was when I first entered. I will also follow instructions provided by my clients.

Michelle was awesome!!!! She dropped in on my cat when I went away. She was reliable, communicative, and even brought my mail and packages in for me! My sweet guy gets so sick in the car so I hate to try and board him but I was so worried about leaving him alone. Michelle eased my fears and relieved my worries. I highly recommend Michelle and I’d definitely ask her to sit for me again.

About: Ive always been around animals, both wild and domestic. I feel very fulfilled and passionate about working with animals, and understand their language quite well. Im happy to give exercise or comfort, whatever is needed. I can do some behavioral training as well. Im happy to adapt to whatever needs present themselves! I'm currently staying at my parents' house on Long Island while I wait for a job opportunity. I have a flexible schedule and love to travel and experience different environments. I have been traveling all over the country the past ten years, taking care of others pets and houses. This includes large lands, with chicken, goats, compost...the whole thing! I also have my own husky mix, and have kept her super happy and healthy.

About: I've had dogs my whole life, so caring for them comes as naturally to me as anything. When I got my puppy four years ago, I dedicated myself fully to his training and development, spending every day with him through those early months to make sure he grew into the happy, well-behaved dog he is today. I also have experience with the more challenging side of pet care. My older dog had diabetes, and I spent a great deal of time managing his condition, administering medication daily, and making sure his final years were as comfortable and loving as possible. It taught me a lot about patience, attentiveness, and caring for pets with special medical needs. Beyond my own dogs, I've spent years babysitting, walking, and watching dogs for friends and neighbors. Animals have always been drawn to me, as I have a natural calm with them that puts even shy or anxious pets at ease. While I'm new to Rover, I bring a lifetime of hands-on experience. Whether it's a long walk, a trip to the park, or just cuddling up with their favorite toys, I pour real love into every visit. I understand how much your dog means to you, and I'll treat them like my own every single time. I recently graduated from college and will be starting my Master of Social Work program at NYU in September. I am available all summer and have plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve! I'm currently based in Plainview, Long Island, where I'm free and flexible for any and all pet care needs throughout the summer. Come September, I'll be living in New York City, where I'll be available for drop-in visits and walks during the week, and open to extended stays on weekends. Whether you're on Long Island or in the city, I'd love to help care for your pup! Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priority. I have experience both crating and not crating dogs, so I'm happy to follow whatever routine works best for your pup. If needed, I can crate them safely when stepping out, or leave them with a frozen treat and a favorite toy to keep them calm and comfortable, especially if they experience separation anxiety, as my own dog does! I tailor every visit to the individual dog. Whether your pup needs a long, energetic walk or a short and easy stroll, I'll follow their lead. I'm always attentive on walks, making sure they don't pick up anything harmful off the street, and equally watchful in the home to keep them safe and out of trouble. Most importantly, your dog will never be short on love. I'll give them all the pets, cuddles, and attention they could ever want because I truly love animals!!

About: I've had the pleasure of having 2 amazing Labradors in my life, my amazing family dog Kathie whom passed away a few years ago and my beautiful black lab Siara who is a wild one but I love her so much. I absolutely love animals and I would take care of your baby like they were my own. I'm so excited for you to bring your precious joy into my home and into my loving arms. They'll have me and my baby girl Siara to keep them company. Again, your baby will be happy and loved, I guarantee it. I currently have a full time job so I would be taking care of your baby before or after my shift and on my days off. My priority is to make your life easier and your baby happy. 🐕‍🦺🐾❤️ I currently have a full time job so I would be taking care of your baby before or after my shift and on my days off. Any other time, my mom will help me out. So your baby will have me and my amazing mom. My priority is to make your life easier and your baby happy. I am someone who lets their dog sit and lay on the couch but not the bed so your pet will definitely be comfy during the day and I’ll have a dog bed ready for them during the night. I will give them their food as you request and take them on all the walks they need. My dog Siara loves to play so there will definitely be play time with the dogs unless you state otherwise. I have a set bed time for my dog which is the latest 11P, she does need her beauty sleep after all so if you’re selecting the boarding option and 11P is good for your dog to sleep , then perfect .. if not, feel free to let me know what their sleeping schedule is. My goal is to keep their schedule as closely aligned to their everyday life at home.

Lilian was an absolute joy to work with. My anxious staffy warmed up real quick and ended up having the least amount of stress ever while I was traveling. Lilian went above and beyond for my pup; reading stories, plenty of attention, and giving lots of love to make sure my pup was loved and cared for. Your furry friend will be in great hands!

I used Dillan yesterday for my 8 week old golden retriever puppy. I was very hestinant at first as an owner of two other dogs ages 11 & 4 I never used a sitter to help out with my dogs, however Dillan make the process so easy and help ease my nerves about having someone care for my dogs. He answered my messages on a timely manner and even shared pictures and a cute video of my pup Dunkin playing in the yard. I would highly recommend Dillan to care for your pets. He also followed the many rules and expectations that I’ve asked of him I Look forward to using him on a regular basis. Overall 10/10 service.

I had a wonderful experience with Julia caring for my dogs and cat while I was away. From the start, she was extremely punctual and professional. She even took the time to visit beforehand to learn exactly where everything was,like the food, water bowls, and cat litter showing how committed she was to making sure everything would be perfect. During her time with my pets, Julia stayed in great communication, sending me regular updates and the cutest photos that really put my mind at ease. It was clear she genuinely cared about my animals and took her responsibility seriously. I highly recommend Julia to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter. She truly went above and beyond!
