About: I have babysat and pet-sat since I was 16! I would feed the neighbors animals and take them on walks. When sitting I took care of the kids and the pets. I have taken care of bunnies, cats, and dogs of all sizes!! Pets feed off of your energy and can feel your emotions and that is why we connect so well!! I have fed, walked, groomed, and cuddled with our furry friends and love to spend time with them. I've owned four dogs, including my English Mastiff, Moose, and have experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need medication or extra support. Whether your pet needs exercise, engagement, or companionship, I'm ready for the job! I am currently going to school for my masters and have breaks throughout the day to talk walks and care for your pet! I have evenings free and can board most nights of the week when planned! I have plenty of time to play, cuddle, and love on your furry friend. I have a fenced yard and no pets, so can easily adapt to your pets style and needs. I live in a walkable, quiet, pet friendly, family neighborhood. I live with 2 girls, also college graduates who both work as EMTs! We do not keep anything out that would be a danger to a furry friend and have an open floor space comfortable for lounging and whatever needs your pet has! :))) I'm able to step away from my responsibilities to ensure your pets receive consistent attention and care. I always follow your instructions and respect your home and your pet's routines. I focus on creating a calm, positive environment, whether that means adhering to feeding schedules, administering medication, or keeping your pet engaged through walks and play. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and well cared for.

“As always, Emma and Trent are the best. We’ve been lucky that they’ve been available when we needed someone to care for our girls while we needed to be away for several hours. We added another pup this time and Emma was welcoming to her as well. Dowdy, my granddaughters Chesapeake Bay Retriever can be a little excitable so we had a short meet and greet before we left for the evening. The meet and greet went exceptionally well so we felt very comfortable leaving all three of our furry girls with Emma and Trent. We highly recommend Emma and Trent to anyone needing a sitter for their furry friends. Our girls live them as well!”

About: Ive always been surrounded by pets. Learned patience with them and boundaries. I have experience around cats and their behavior, same with dogs. I am reliable with communication so you can count on me to keep you updated during your service. I am currently working part time right now and usually work mornings. I am mostly free after 2-3 pm including weekdays/weekends. So I have plenty of free time to care for your fur babies. Unfortunately I am not able to take pets into my own home due to limited space. I will happily watch them in your home and will be respectful.

“Jordan took great care of Mona while I was away for several days. Mona can be sensitive to changes in routine, and Jordan was calm, patient, and very attentive in helping her feel comfortable. She was communicative, reliable, and made sure Mona’s routine stayed consistent, which gave me peace of mind while traveling. I appreciated how thoughtful she was in making sure Mona was well cared for and comfortable. Over the course of the visits, Mona became more relaxed and even playful, which really speaks to Jordan’s approach and attentiveness. Jordan is responsible, kind, and clearly cares about the animals she works with. I would absolutely recommend her and would gladly book with her again.”

About: Since I was 4 years old we had dogs at home, a boxer mix and a poodle. Later on when I was 15 my mom got a pug, and then another one while my sister got a big pit mix with special needs. And 7 years ago I adopted a dog of my own, a 60lb hound mix, who's the light of my day. I've walked all the dogs in my family, and taken care of them when needed. With my own dog, I do everything for him, from baths, playtime, walks, roadtrips, cuddle and I love him, his medical care is up to date and I always make sure he's happy and healthy. I've also watched over friends dogs and cats, and follow all the rules I've been given, every dog ans cat is different and unique and deserves the same respect and care. I am available weekdays after 5:30pm (except for Tuesdays) Weekends I'm usually available, I can be flexible with my plans. I do update my schedule regularly. I cannot dog sit in my home. But I will love to walk your dog(s) in your neighborhood, take them on a hike, take them on drives, as well as staying over for a few hours. I'll follow your rules with no problem and I'll give my outmust attention, respect and love to your dog(s). Meet and greets would be preferable. As well as letting me know of any health or behavioral concerns your dog(s) might have so I can give individualized care.

About: I've always been an animal lover and grew up in Suffolk county caring dogs, chickens, quail and rodents! I'm the go-to pet care person for my friends and family and would love the opportunity to care for your pets! I'm a former volunteer of Save-A-Pet in Port Jeff Station where I cared for dozens of cats every weekend. I have experience with animals of all ages. I am comfortable dispensing medication for aging or ill pets. I've also cared for puppies and have even assisted in delivering a litter of goldendoodles! My pets are always a part of the family and I'd treat yours the same way! I'm currently a contractor worker for animation and advertising. Because my work is project and delivery based my schedule is flexible. I care for pets during the day and do my contract work in the late evenings so I'll have plenty of time to devote to your pets. I treat all animals with the care I would show to my own pets. I take care instructions seriously and respect each animals needs and preferences to ensure their comfort and safety.

“Kimberly is amazing with our 5 month old puppy!!! She has been sitting for her for an hour twice a day and our puppy loves her! She’s also amazing about not reinforcing unwanted behaviors like jumping and she made a point to ask me what tricks our puppy knows so she can practice them with her too. Our puppy is not fully potty trained and needs to sometimes be reminded to go potty but Kimberly makes sure to have her go and she has not had any accidents. She also keeps me posted if things come up during the visit (like a lost tooth!) which I really appreciate. I could not be happier with how everything is going”

Love the reviews and pictures we get from Victoria. Altho our cats can range from sneaky,to silly, to affectionate, or anti social, she always seems to take the proper steps to ensure they are cared for. Thank you so very much, again! Snickers and Asher look forward to seeing you again! 🎉

Linda is a wonderful dog sitter, you can tell she truly loves what she does. She was so kind and caring towards our dogs and sent great updates. She was always on time and was great with communicating. I’m always nervous when going away and leaving our dogs, having Linda watch them really made me feel so much more at ease and I was able to enjoy our vacation much more because of her.

If you're looking for someone to care for your animals as if they were her own, I highly recommend Katelyn. She took care of my three cats while I was away, and she was incredibly reliable, compassionate, and attentive. After every visit, Katelyn sent me photos and videos along with updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was such a comfort to see the cats eating, relaxing, and interacting with her. What meant the most to me was how quickly the cats trusted her. They welcomed her right away and even allowed her to pet them. The biggest surprise was Brown Bear, who is usually very sensitive to touch and doesn't warm up to people easily. Seeing him feel so comfortable with her says everything about her gentle nature. It's clear she genuinely loves animals, and they know it. My cats were so well cared for, and I know they'll miss seeing her. I wouldn't hesitate to trust her with them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and loving pet caregiver.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Centereach on Rover is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $34 per visit. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 4,168 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Centereach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 Centereach. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
