About: My calm demeanor helps me connect with pets of all temperaments. Adopting a sassy calico cat named Waffles with my partner has taught me the importance of patience, training, and understanding space. I am an approved foster parent with SPCA Erie County and have had the pleasure of fostering newborn kittens, a nursing mother cat, and puppies. I've experienced fostering young puppies (3 months old) and implementing effective potty-training techniques. Beyond fostering, my friends trust me to take care of their cats/dogs while they're away. I have even taught some of the cats new tricks while in my care! Since then, I have my own adventurous cat, Shrimp, who thrives on outdoor exploration, and I understand the importance of providing mental and physical stimulation. I'm attentive, experienced, and genuinely passionate about making sure every pet in my care feels happy, safe, and loved. At this time, I am available all day to provide care, except on some Fridays/Saturdays, when I am unavailable due to other freelance bookings in the wedding industry. I will treat your home with the utmost respect and keep spaces tidy, secure doors and windows, and ensure your pet's environment remains clean and comfortable.

About: My husband and I are animal lovers, but I would be the main watch keeper since I am home full time :) We have been around puppies our whole life. I call all doggies, puppies (regardless if they're young and old) I grew up with Cocker Spaniels and my husband with a Mini Pinscher. We currently do not have any dogs at home Potty time for your pup is whenever the pup needs, we have a fenced backyard where they can go at any minute of the day, in addition to the daily walks around the neighborhood. I would love to have the opportunity to watch these little ones. I have used Rover.com in the past ,and had a great experience. This was prior to my little Spaniel girl Kiki passing away at the age of 13 due to a uterus infection :( So looking to give the same love that she received from her sitter to another puppy. I will keep you posted throughout the day with pictures and videos so you have a peace of mind that your pup is in good care and happy. I am more than happy to meet with you and your pooch before you confirm my sitter services to make sure your pup feels comfortable and vice versa.
“Maria did a great job walking my dogs. She quickly developed a nice rapport with them, and I know Lucky loved his longer walks to the park, and Harley her short walks.”

“Sylvia is a great communicator and very caring to my dog. She made sure he got his water, wore his cooling vest, shoes and stayed safe during the most intense heat wave. She eased my worries, I highly recommend Sylvia!”

“Search no further - Ari's the best!! Being a first time dog owner, I was quite intimidated with all that comes with taking care of a pup (especially because I work full time) but Ari's Rover cards and advice/suggestions gave me a great sense of relief and reassurance and I could not ask for more! I looked forward to his Rover cards every time!! (not only to look at pics he took of my boy haha) It's detailed and gives you a good picture of what happened during the stay. He is incredibly knowledgeable, professional and reliable. Ari will definitely be my go to person any time in the future.”

“Jessica has been caring for my dog Niko for several years. From the first meeting I was impressed with how she interacted with Niko and how quickly she put him at ease. He loves her and when I have to leave him knowing Jessica is there to care for him gives me incredible peace of mind! She is someone who really loves and understands animals and it shows in how happy and relaxed Niko is when I return home. You couldn’t ask for a better caretaker for your pet!”

About: As a devoted dog mom and longtime animal shelter volunteer, I’ve gained hands-on experience with pups of all ages, temperaments, and needs. My background has taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of tailoring care to each dog’s personality. Whether it’s energetic walks, calm companionship, or extra TLC, I treat every pup like family and ensure they feel safe, loved, and happy. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday routine. With a very flexible schedule and lots of availability, I’m able to give pups consistent attention, love, and care whenever needed. Safety and trust are my top priorities.

About: I have 10 years of experience in raising cats and 6 years of experience in rescuing stray cats. I have 3 cats at home. I am experienced in taking care of kittens, sick cats and dealing with cat stress. I live in a large house with 6 rooms and a backyard for two families. Most of the cats that come to foster care are in single rooms. I love cats, just like I love my own children. My husband and I work from home, so we have plenty of time to take care of your pets, we have plenty of time to take them for a walk. The house I live in has two floors and six rooms. I hope the owner provides food, and I will be provide snacks. The cats will live alone in the cat house for the first two days when they come to my house. I will observe the friendliness of the cats to decide whether to let them play with other cats.
About: ***LOCATED IN BAYSIDE,QUEENS*** Hi there! I love all fur babies and welcome them with open arms. I’m a firm believer that while small moments with our pets may seem minuscule to us, they are everything to them— so let’s make it count! I grew up with a cocker spaniel and recently lost my rescue pup to cancer. Due to her long treatment regimen, I feel comfortable administering oral medications. She was a jack russell mixed with a dachshund so you know training was a handful! She suffered from some separation anxiety that we trained through so I have experience with this challenge (pandemic puppies am I right?) But we still had the best time. We explored parks, she sniffed the fun smells of NY, we snuggled on the couch and played fetch every evening. Whatever your pet is into, I’m up for! I work remotely in a dog-friendly building. My job is very flexible when it comes to hours so I can do my best to accommodate nearly every reasonable scenario depending on my meeting times for that given day. However, please no bookings after 7:30pm. In terms of supplies, I do ask pawrents to please bring any necessary food, crates, toys, meds, blankets, etc. I prefer to not cross-contaminate supplies for the health and safety of all pets. All feeding times/walking schedules will be up to the discretion of the pawrent— you know your pet best! I also have pee-pads available for those puppers who are not yet fully potty trained. Lastly, my home layout is quite pet friendly. I keep bedroom and bathroom doors closed since they are out of my line of sight when I work and the kitchen/living room is an open concept. For smaller pets, I can gate away a certain area if pawrents prefer.
“Filomena was wonderful - my dog loved her - she was on time and would take videos while she was walking my dog. I couldn’t recommend her more highly and would definitely book her again - my dog is 12 and this is the first time I ever hired someone to take care of my dog - we loved her and so did my dog 🐕”

Anny is excellent, kind, sweet, and attentive. She arrived right on time, and my dogs loved their walks with her. Walks were documented, and I loved getting picture updates. My dogs were happy to see her when it was time for their walks. I would recommend Anny to anyone looking for dog walking and boarding! :)
