About: I currently have two kittens, Nala and Luna who are my everything. I've had dogs all throughout my life. I am doing this to fulfill my desire to meet and hang out with all sorts of pets. I currently live alone and work a 9-5 at an engineering research lab with a flexible schedule. Other than that, I am open and free to help with your pets. This includes weekends anytime, and also morning and evening stops at your house. I am open to learning anything that your pets need. I love playing with animals and ensuring that they feel safe with me. Anything you need including feeding, water, cleaning (changing litter box etc.) I'm all game for.

Thank you so much for looking after our babies!”

About: Animals of all shapes and sizes have always been part of my life. Growing up, I had two lovely cats and volunteered regularly at a horse rescue sanctuary. After college, I worked for the Humane Society, where I looked after dogs and horses with varying levels of care needs. I regularly dog-sit for an Australian cattle dog, and I'm honored to be one of only a few people with whom she agrees to go for walks. I also regularly pet-sit for a household with two dogs and two cats. I am experienced in accommodating specialized feeding and medication protocols for puppies, senior dogs, and all ages in between, as well as for adult cats. I'm skilled at understanding animal body language and behavioral cues. I care deeply about my relationships with animals, and I do my best to ensure that every pet feels safe, respected, and loved. I have a good amount of flexibility in my schedule. I am typically available before 9 AM and between 2 PM and 7 PM. I am also available for overnight home stays. Maintaining safety and establishing trust (of both the pet and the humans) are priorities for me when I care for pets in a client's home. I am always aware that I am a guest in their home, and I keep the space clean and secure. I avoid moving things or changing established routines. I do my best to maintain the pet's sense of normalcy and comfort while their people are away.
About: While I’ve always had dogs growing up, I am also very well-versed in dog and cat sitting. Whether that’s walking, feeding, changing cat litter, or simply keeping them company. I’m currently working part-tim so pet care fits great into my daily/weekly routine! I can do daily visits up to 3 times a day, whatever fits your schedule best. I will care for your pets however you prefer. Whether that’s a walk, letting them outside in a safe background, or watching your cat(s).
“Sophie was amazing with my two cats! Both are rescues with their own unique quirks, and Sophie took it all in stride and provided incredible care. She communicated clearly and often, so I was never worried. Highly recommend!”
“We rely on Jared for walking our dogs and also for dropping in on our cats when we travel. He stays the whole time and plays with them in addition to feeding them and cleaning their litter boxes. All our pets like Jared.”
“Oliver was fantastic with our 2 cats. When we came back they were super relaxed, which is a great sign. Oliver sent us pics every day, and managed exactly as we agreed. Will definitely call back next time we’re out of town!”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Adelphi is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Adelphi
Nichole was wonderful with our cats and cockatiels! She sent us photo updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our pets warmed up to her surprisingly quickly, and it was clear they were well cared for. We will definitely be booking Nichole again for our future trips. Highly recommend!
Katie is fantastic! She was an excellent care giver when a crisis arose. Mcat passed away in her care due to underlying conditions none of us knew about. Her quick response to get him to the er vet and contact my emergency contacts was amazing. I was out of reach at the time due to timezone differences. She did a great job handling such a difficult situation. I absolutely would hire her again.
Kacy is exceptional. She is just the right person we were looking for to take care of our dog to the same level we take care of him. It’s was very apparent the first time she met our dog that she truly loves dogs and understands their language. We’ve had nothing but great experiences with Kacy.
Connie has been a perfect addition to our pet sitters. We have a pretty anxious smaller pup who takes a while to warm up to strangers and she has been really patient with her. She is also great with our energetic young rottie. She is prompt with her replies to our requests for visits and even with last minute requests.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Adelphi on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 18,051 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Adelphi. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Adelphi stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Adelphi. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
