House Sitting in Woodlawn-Nordwood, Bronx, NY

“Ava was prompt, sent tons of pictures and videos and seemed to love spending time with our cat. She responded quickly when messaged and was a respectful house guest.”

“Yazmine was the absolute best!! She took care of my puppy, who is cute but also a puppy. She kept me abreast of what was happening, helped come up with a strategy to help him sleep in his crate, and played with him endlessly. I could not have asked for a better partner. Thank you!”

Carolina C.

“Chenelle was really great with communication! She sent lots of photos and videos during her stay and took good care of my boys. Would recommend!”

Christy C.

“Carson was very patient with me as I sorted out my schedule. She came highly recommended from the references she provided. She cared for my elderly dog, Penny, including administering a complicated regimen of medication. I would hire her again!”

Kimberly S.

“Kamryn was so great. She communicated thoroughly, sent pics and videos, and kept my home straight. My puppy was only 3 months old and she loved on her like she was her own. This was my first rover experience, and I plan to book Kamryn for future needs if available. Thanks Kamryn!”

Katie C.

“Thank you again so much for taking care of our doggo! Elizabeth was an amazing help, great communication with daily updates/pictures. I would highly recommend Elizabeth to take care of your fur babies!”

“Fallon was great was Nori. She is very nice and sweet. Fallon was also very flexible with me and schedule. I would definitely book her again in the future.”

About: I owned two dogs up until the age of 16 and loved them dearly. I often took my dogs out for long walks and played with them to make sure they were always active & engaged. Since then, I’ve dog/cat sat for numerous friends and neighbors throughout and post college. I always treat others’ animals with the same love and care as I did with my own! I currently work from home, so I have the flexibility to walk or play with your dog before 9am or in the afternoon and evenings if needed! Unfortunately I am unable to host at this time due to my resistance not allowing dogs, but I am available to dog sit in your home! I will ensure the comfort and safety of your dog at all times in a clean environment and can provide any specific additional/necessary support needed!

“I can’t recommend Erick enough! He watched my dog Shadow over a long weekend and was truly incredible from start to finish. Shadow can be a bit reactive with other dogs and kids, and Erick took the time to meet him beforehand to ensure a good fit. They hit it off right away (the treats definitely helped!). Throughout the stay, Erick was super communicative and responsive, giving me peace of mind while I was away. He went above and beyond- taking Shadow on long walks through our local park, keeping up with his medication, sticking to his feeding and potty schedule, and giving him plenty of playtime and attention. He even used some paw balm on Shadows paws after long walks to keep them nourished and left some for me to use as well. I also came home to a tidy space, which was such a thoughtful touch. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and all-around amazing sitter, Erick is your guy. Shadow is already looking forward to his next stay!”

About: My 3 kids and I run a small business caring for animals mostly dogs. All 3 are in their 20’s. My son, Adam does most of the walks and house sitting, I handle the boarding. My reviews are not only for me but for my boys as well. I come from a long line of animal lovers and grew up with many dogs, cats, birds, hamsters. Animals are my life! They offer unconditional love and rely on us to give them love, affection and to meet all of their basic needs. I own my own home on a private dead end street. When your fur babies are here, they are part of our family and are never left alone. There is always someone at home I recently left my job in the medical field. I’m spending my time now with my adult children and my dogs. Life is too short to not do what you love everyday Safety is a priority in my home and I live on a private street with only two houses so there is absolutely zero traffic here

“Raiysa was great with Ekko! She listened to everything we asked from her, and Ekko was really relaxed with her. He even ate and he never eats when we’re gone!”

About: I have cared for cats and dogs on and off since I was 10. Friends and family members have trusted me with the care of their pets. Presently, I am available 7 days a week. I provide stimulating, loving care for your fur baby. I can care for up to 2 pets per day, or as my schedule allows. Right now, I do not have the ability to care for pets in my home. Any care that I give will have to be public or in the client's home. I am fully insured and bonded for your peace of mind.

About: I love animals - I have taken care of kittens, old dogs, and everything in between. Having grown up with dogs and cats all my life in Western Massachusetts, I am used to a pet friendly environment and used to treating animals like they’re apart of your family. I work from home in finance with a lot of time to spare! I can provide them a lot of attention and walk them as many times as needed. I try to make each day special for them when they’re in my care. I love to introduce myself and try to get pets to warm up to me while playing. Treats sometimes help depending on the owner’s preference. If they’re in a new environment, I would give them a quick tour and provide them with a place to lie down. After developing trust, a quick walk and some food should solidify that further.

“Kamila was communicative and professional. I can tell my cat was at ease with her from the many photos she sent. I felt very comfortable knowing Aria was being taken care of by her.”

About: I grew up with cats and they felt like sisters to me. I enjoy spending time with animals as they are very healing to me. I have a very flexible and open schedule at the moment for your pet sitting needs. I look forward to meeting your furry children :) I follow the instructions and notes given by clients or friends very carefully. I understand the boundaries the animal sets and I let it come to me when it’s ready.

About: Hey! My name is Nikki, I am new to rover but I have been dog walking for a few years now. I started my business on the UES/East Harlem but now that I have moved into the neighborhood I am hoping to meet more furry friends and families through here. If you love seeing cute pups in their element take a look on instagram @ tailsandtrails.nyc My schedule is flexible so it allows me to work around your schedule. If something comes up last minute, short notice work trips, or maybe you just need some time for yourself. I completely understand, I got you covered ! Please feel free to reach out to me anytime if you have any questions I allow them to roam as if they were at their own home, I want them to feel comfortable in the space that they are going to be staying at for a few nights or even for the day.I provide updates and pictures while you’re away so that you can feel at ease.

“Kimberly was the best. I recently moved to another town and I accidentally had the old address on my rover, when I realized she was already there and she accepted coming all the way to my new address without even questioning it. She took amazing care of my dog, she stayed over my place for 4 nights and she left the place cleaner than before and kept me updated the entire time while I was away on a trip. She is very responsible, kind, respectful, fast at texting and a really nice person. I would totally recommend and book her again. Thank you so much.”

“Lili was awesome to work with and was an excellent sitter for our pup over 9 days! This was our first time using a sitter for an extended time so I had a bit of nervousness, but he was in the best hands! She was very responsive and provided regular updates, was timely, took great care of him with walks, dropping/picking up at daycare to maintain his regular schedule, cuddles, playtime and he even visited her home as well. And bonus, our apt was spotless upon return. Would absolutely hire Lili again and I know our pup will miss her.”

Calondra M.

“Savanna and Maddy took amazing care of our shy cat. We got updates daily with pictures and a summary on how she was doing, and it was very evident that Savanna was extremely knowledgable about cats and was treating ours with both love and respect. We came back to a clean home and a happy cat, and are planning to book with them again. I would 100% recommend these ladies to anyone looking for a sitter who has buckets of love to give and the knowledge to back it up.”

“Maria was perfect. She helped us out in a tight jam and made our nervous pooch feel safe and relaxed. She was prompt, polite, professional. Will use her again.”
