About: Always feel the warmth of dogs of my family & friends . Usually they run to me right away! Love to play games & take long walks with your dog. Since I’m not currently employed, I’m available full time & on short notice. It’s so important to keep a consistent routine with your pet so they feel comfortable. I prefer taking care of pets in their home environment. I can drive long distance if needed. Looking forward to getting to know your pet & starting a strong companionship right away.
About: What I think truly sets me apart is my tailored approach to each dog's needs, ranging from feeding medicine, to early walks or even just lovey extra attention, I’m always here for it. I like combining enthusiastic play with disciplined training techniques. Whether your furry friend is a playful pup needing playbite training and endless games of fetch, or a cherished senior who thrives on gentle care, medication reminders, and comforting companionship, I really try to provide a safe, loving, and happy environment. My experience includes puppy socialization and specialized senior dog care, ensuring every dog in my charge receives the individual attention and expert care they deserve, making their time with me feel just like your home. At the moment now, I am unemployed so that gives me more then enough time (even every day) to help take care of your pup when you need it! With every pet is different, I like to converse with the owner about the character of the dog and habits as well as any other important health information that I should keep in mind before sitting, and if it is in your home, I’m very well mannered and have respect for not just the home but pups safety too
“Our cats are our kids and we hate them being lonely and uncomfortable when we are away. Our newest rescue also seems to not like men so much, so this time when we needed a sitter last minute we reached out to Ella and hit the jackpot!! Ella followed all our directions for feeding etc and kept our house clean while we were away...which isn't easy with 2 cats. Our cats, which can be very shy initially, fell in love with Ella and it put us at ease knowing how happy they were with her and how much they looked forward to seeing her. Highly recommend Ella to take care of your pets. She is very responsible, corresponds with you very well, and loves your pets like her own.”
About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs for over 13 years and have done plenty of dog and house sitting for different families. I really enjoy getting to know each pup and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog loves to play or prefers to relax, I’m happy to spend time with them and give them the attention they need. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’d love to meet you and your pups! I’m available early mornings, Tuesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday afternoons, plus most evenings. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple dogs at once. Happy to figure out the schedule that works best! I care for pets in the comfort of their own home through visits and dog walks. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your pup needs a walk, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, or just some company, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.
“Karen is absolutely amazing! We’ve used her time and time again, and she always goes above and beyond for our girls. I have such peace of mind knowing they’re with someone who truly loves and cares for them as if they were her own. We’re so grateful for her and couldn’t recommend her enough! ❤️🐾”
“Diego has been doing a great job of taking care of my outdoor kitties for the past several months. My Kitties are a shy bunch, but Diego has been very patient and kind with them, thus helping me to travel without any worries. I would highly recommend Diego to take care of any one's pets while they are away on vacation or for daily visits. Thank again Diego for doing such a great job!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for friends and family since I was much younger. I’ve helped take care of small dogs and bigger dogs as well. I work full time but have flexibility to help with your pet before work, during lunch, and after work. My availability on the weekends is much greater. I treat every animal with respect and kindness as if they are my own. Every animal is special and deserves to feel valued! I stand by that
“Samantha was great! She took the time to meet with us before her visits to make sure everything was in order and sent great updates and pictures each day. She was flexible and even able to add on an extra day when our plans changed. Would definitely use her again in the future.”
About: I have experience with puppies (basic training, routines) and senior dogs (gentle care, medications), and I treat every pet like my own while keeping owners updated and worry free. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work from home, allowing me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and frequent breaks throughout the day. I also occasionally babysit for a friend nearby, which is easy to balance with pet care and never takes me far from the home. This flexibility lets me maintain consistent routines, playtime, and quality care for every pet. I follow each pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide plenty of supervision, playtime, walks, and affection, along with feeding and any special care needed. I keep the environment safe and calm, respect house rules, and share regular updates so owners always know how their pet is doing. 🐾
About: I was raised with pets. Since my childhood, I have had cats and dogs. I have also potty trained, provided basic training (walking on leash, not pulling, socialization) for dogs. I am a dog grandma to a cockapoo and pitbull who adore me and drive their parents crazy when I am around because I spoil them. I have experience with dogs, cats and some farm animals (cows, chicken) from my yearly summer visits to Guatemala. Like Children, pets take to me because of my loving nature. I am a nurturer and enjoy the company of animals. There seems to be genuine connections. I enjoy their company, cuddling and talking to them. I will treat your babies as if they were my own. Although, I may not allow pets on furniture, if they are used to it, there is always an exception to the rule. They will always feel as if they were at home. Let's meet and I can guarantee your pet will have a great connection with me. I am available to pet sit at your home or mine. Either way, "mi casa" will be "their casa." I don’t mind cat sitting. However, it would be best to care for them in your home as I recently found out, my live in boyfriend is allergic. I currently work from home 3 times a week and my husband twice a week. We have a spacious backyard and can provide their daily activity as needed. We also have the flexibility to walk our furry friends (as requested). Please note: your pets will have their own space and will get lots of love from us. We have a fenced yard with plenty of space and a friendly furry friend. We are available for a meet and greet before finalizing a booking.
“This is the second time that Nancy watched our cats while we were on vacation, and it is so good to know that your cats are well taken care of so that you can go on vacation worry-free! I love the daily texts and pictures of our cats as it really gives me peace of mind that everything is okay. I would not hesitate to have her watch our cats for any future trips!!”
About: For the past several years, I have dedicated my life to professionally caring for animals of all kinds, including managing two pet care companies on Long Island and caring for the animals at the Long Island Science Museum.

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life! When I was 10 I had a puppy and have volunteered at animal shelters throughout high school. I can assure you I will take great care of your animals with all the love in my heart. I’m currently working part time, so I have a lot of time this summer!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Amityville
Samantha is an excellent sitter. While we were away for more than a week, she sent photos and updates after each visit. Our dog is very comfortable in her care. Samantha is reliable, attentive and goes above & beyond. This was our second booking with her, and we will continue to book her as long as she is available.
Lily has been watching our pups and house sitting for us for the last year and we are so lucky to have her! She takes amazing care of our three pups (a very shy and particular husky, a golden, and a super high energy Dutch shepherd). She manages each pups personality beautifully and all three love her, which is a big deal considering our girl dog is very particular with who she lets care for her! We never have to worry when we go away because we know that the dogs love Lily and she has a ton of experience to manage all of the different breeds and their needs! She also takes amazing care of our home and our fish while she’s here! We can’t recommend Lily highly enough!
Sydney was great. We were very apprehensive about leaving Penny alone. We were going away and our usual sitter had a last-minute change of plans. She doesn't do well boarding anywhere so we had Sydney stop in to dogsit. She was great with communication and did everything we asked to make our dog feel more comfortable with us not being home. I would 100% have her do this again if we needed. Thank you.
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.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Amityville 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.
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 Amityville 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.
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 .

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.
To find sitters in Amityville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
