“Amanda was amazing with Flint! We had a pretty last minute situation and she came through for us with no hesitation. She was super attentive, communicative, and really took initiative during her drop-ins. She noticed things, checked in with us when needed, and went above and beyond without us having to ask. I felt comfortable knowing Flint was in good hands while we were away. Definitely someone I’ll be booking again in the future. Highly recommend Amanda!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every pet I look after. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to their individual needs, whether that means extra playtime, cuddles, walks, or simply keeping them company. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and any special instructions you provide, because I know how important consistency is for them. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your fur baby is being cared for like family. 🐾❤️ I’m part-time, so my flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent walks, playtime, feeding, attention, and companionship throughout the week for your pets. I have a very open space, and a block away from park. where pets feel comfortable, supervised, and cared for, while respecting their routines, boundaries, and unique needs.
“Evangelina is very thorough and attentive. She sent multiple pictures of what she had done which I really really appreciate. Thank you for taking care of my cats!!!!”
“Faith was a great sitter for our cat Molly. Faith came every morning to feed and play with her. She sent us photos every visit, which we loved! Faith was attentive, communicative and went above and beyond during her visits. We trust her and hope to work with her in future! 10/10 would recommend.”
About: I’ve been taking care of my very own dog since I was nine years old I had a beagle and a dachshund in which I both used to care for I would feed them, walk them, go to the park and engage in activities, give baths when needed. I have also pet sat for my friend’s dogs or cats when needed. My passion is for animals. I have worked in a veterinary setting for over a year and I do have knowledge of animals my main priority and what I strive for is the care these animals will receive. I currently own a year 10 old dachshund who is the sweetest boy ever.! my goal and my passion is treating these animals, as if they are my own I am highly experienced with the dachshund breed being an owner of them for over 20yrs, I have knowledge with senior dog care. I have administered oral medication insulin, and any nutritional values. The owner may request. I currently do have an open availability genuinely starting at 10 AM and I am available seven days a week, pet care has just always been a passion of mine However, I’m instructed to do so, many animals have different needs and require different instructions so it’s very mindful to be open about specific cares of your pet and needs and it will be my pleasure to ensure high quality care
About: Growing up, I had the joy of loving and caring for an 80-pound, goofy, American Pitt Bull Terrier, named Meryn. Throughout my high school years, he was my constant companion, playing catch at the East River Park on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. We would jog across the Williamsburg Bridge and run up and down the stairwell in my apartment building to burn off energy (we lived on the 11th floor). He was an incredibly curious boy, who made training fun. He was very motivated by treats and praise. Through repetition and treats he learned all the basic commands. I have petsat many times for family members over the years. Pets included are dogs (large and small breeds) cats, hamsters, and a bearded dragon once. My longest dogsitting experience lasted 3 weeks with my aunt’s pug, Coco Rico, while my aunt was on vacation. During this time, Rico had an ear infection and I had to administer his ear drops. Being a pug, I had to ensure his eyes and face folds were clean. I have catsit for my brother’s diabetic cat, Tuna Fish, on several occasions. I administered insulin injections daily. I learned how to measure the proper dosage and how to safely/comfortably give her the injections. She was diagnosed with diabetes in 2020, so it was not easy learning how to give a cat a shot via a Zoom call with the vet! But learning this and helping my brother with the insulin injections, kept Tuna going for 4 more years after diagnosis. This is by far the most medical care experience I have had with pets. Nowadays, I regularly borrow my Gen Z daughter’s dog, Espresso. He’s a Pomeranian-Chihuahua mix, and my favorite little guy. My grandpup, if you will. With this past winter being a very cold one in NYC, I ensured to dress Espresso in his sweater, coat, and boots for his walks. I do photo shoots with him while on walks, during play time, and naps. I update her with anecdotes throughout the day, such as mentioning any puppy pals we ran into while out and anything funny or adorable he’s done. She even recently said to me, “You take the most wonderful pictures of him.” That truly warmed my heart because I love capturing him in different places and poses. My pet baby now is an American short hair cat with calico patterned fur, named Basil (aka Ms. Lady Boop Boop). She’s a 16 year old, still feisty gal, who has a favorite fishy toy that dangles from a wand. Being a senior, she has developed arthritis in her old age and now makes use of cushioned stairs to get on the couch/bed. She also needs an eye ointment, the application of which has become part of our daily routine. In the past, when she has been ill, I've also given her medicine in liquid form via syringe as well as getting her to swallow a pill. Additionally, I took care of a feral cat that would visit me now and then. My family has a home in Albany, in upstate New York, and I'm happy to board dogs up there for weekends or extended stays should a pet parent allow it. The feral cat that would visit me was in Albany and would appear randomly in our backyard. I fed and watered him whenever he came by. He was deaf and the sweetest guy, who loved rubs and to hang out on our deck. He had an extra digit on each front paw, so I dubbed him Thumbs. One day, when he visited, I noticed immediately that he had fleas on him. I gave him a bath a kiddy tub in my backyard with flea shampoo. I bought the flea comb and collar and got rid of those pesky bugs. I know he was grateful because he'd been scratching so hard, his fur was missing in some places. I am a visual artist and writer, working from home, so my weekdays are flexible. I set my own schedule working on my projects so I can easily accommodate different pet types and time slots for care. I occasionally travel to my family home in Albany, upstate New York, but I always plan that ahead of time and I am happy to board pets up there if the pet parent is open to that option. I live in a 2-bedroom apartment in Brooklyn, NYC. I am located on the 3rd (and top) floor of a walk-up building. I have a senior, female cat, who is very relaxed and sleeps most of the day. There is no outdoor space here, but there are local parks nearby, including a dog run. I also have a house upstate, in Albany, NY. There is plenty of space for running around here, including a backyard. We are currently having a fence put in and I will update this when it is installed.
“Chelsea does great with my puppy Ringo! She was able to come last minute ( my daughter called me worried about him when she left for work, she said he was barking and had some separation anxiety! ) By the time I got home, he was a happier puppy after Chelsea’s visit!”

I had amazing clients that relied on me and used to walk their dogs in every party of Manhattan, but when COVID came I had pet owners that moved out of NY and so many of my clientele fell down by a lot. Now I’m trying get on my feet on what I love the most I have dealt with lots types of dogs and experienced a lot with animal care.

In both my home and my client’s home, I keep the environment clean, follow any special care instructions, and treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect.
“Erik was absolutely fantastic. He was incredibly responsive, communicative, kind, and friendly from start to finish. My dog is very shy and usually takes a long time to warm up to new people, but he opened up to Erik almost immediately, which says a lot. Erik also accepted a last-minute booking during an insane heat wave and still showed up in 90-degree weather without hesitation. I truly appreciated his reliability and care. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again”
“Katie is amazing, Simba loves her and he even came out the first day she came to sit for him. I am so happy to have found her because she really keeps me updated on him and send a lot of pictures. I feel so much at ease because now I know he will be taken care of with lots of Love. Thank you so much Katie, looking forward to work with you for more visits to come.”
“She is wonderful! Even was able to help me out last minute when my flight got delayed. She was attentive thorough and gave me great detail when visiting my two 18 year old kitties-1 of whom requires twice daily insulin injections. I totally trust her with my boys and will definitely book her again!!”

Carolina is AMAZING! I just recently moved into my apartment, and was anxious about finding someone to take care of my dog (Staffie mix) and my cat - both senior pets - during a trip to visit family. I'm so glad I chose Carolina, she was absolutely fantastic - extremely professional, caring, and communicative throughout the visit, and I could tell from the first photo she sent that my pets were in great hands. The neighbors in my new building also had great things to say about her once I returned. I'm so grateful for her expert care, and definitely plan to book her again. Highly recommended!
Amanda was amazing with Flint! We had a pretty last minute situation and she came through for us with no hesitation. She was super attentive, communicative, and really took initiative during her drop-ins. She noticed things, checked in with us when needed, and went above and beyond without us having to ask. I felt comfortable knowing Flint was in good hands while we were away. Definitely someone I’ll be booking again in the future. Highly recommend Amanda!
Alex was great with my babies while I was gone for almost two weeks! When I got home I could tell they had been well taken care of, they didn't appear stressed at all which has happened in the past. Alex was super responsive and sent me such great pictures that helped relieve my anxiety. I would absolutely recommend her!
Christian is a great sitter. Gunner can be nervous/skiddish around new people, but with Christian’s patience and calm demeanor, Gunner was at ease in no time! There were no issues and he followed instructions I gave him. I would definitely book Christian again and recommend him to others.
Mark is truly the best around. He is incredibly loving, attentive, and thoughtful with our fur babies, and he’s also an excellent communicator. We always feel so lucky knowing they are in his care. It’s a delight to bump into him around the neighborhood, too! 😆💕
Raul did an excellent job pet sitting for Gunner. He made sure to follow instructions my husband and I gave him, which gave us a peace of mind. When something wasn’t completely clear, he checked in with me, I really appreciated that level of communication and care. It’s safe to say he’s doing a great job getting to know both us and Gunner, and we feel comfortable trusting him with our dog. Highly recommend!
She was such an angel to come care for my dog last minute!! He’s a big boy and not the easiest to handle and she did a great job with him. She did drop in visits and it was so nice to have someone I could trust in my home and with my dog. 100% recommend her and I will book with her again for next time.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Woodhaven choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
