About: I’ve taken care of pets since 15. I gained all of my experience that I have today through taking care of neighbors, friends, colleagues, and family’s pets. I am a loving, kind, caring, and patient person. I learned so much from caring for animals, that I adore them so much! Also additional, I have experience with puppies, kittens, and senior pets. I’m currently a college student, my classes are held online. Which gives me plenty of time to spend with the doggies. My weekends are busy but I can do mornings only. Because the weekends are the only days I have to finish my college work. I care for my clients pets like if they were my own. I make sure to make my clients pets feel as comfortable and safe as possible, like if they were in their own home. I love taking my time to get to know my clients pets because each pet has their own personality! I also make sure to follow any rules or meal plans that my clients leave for their pets.
“Jessie is excellent. She's extremely good at communicating, leaving detailed notes, taking lots of photos, letting me know about issues that came up, following the notes I left, and being flexible about making small changes. It gave me so much peace of mind while I was away for two weeks. Highly recommend!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for and training high energy working breeds, including my own German Shepherd and Belgian Malinois, both professionally trained service dogs. I understand that every dog has a different temperament, energy level, and training background, and I adjust my approach accordingly. In addition to regular walks and pet care, I have experience with obedience training, structured exercise, and sport-style training. I’m comfortable handling strong, energetic, and highly driven dogs, while still providing patient and attentive care for dogs that need a calmer approach. My goal is to make every walk productive, safe, and enjoyable while reinforcing good leash manners and positive behavior. Whether your dog needs a simple neighborhood walk, more structured exercise, or an experienced handler, I’m happy to provide dependable and responsible care. My schedule is flexible most days, and I’m usually out and about throughout the day, which makes it easy for me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and pet care at different times. I can often work around your pet’s normal routine and am happy to coordinate a schedule that works best for you. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, medications, crate use, and any specific behavioral needs. I make sure doors, gates, leashes, and equipment are secure before every walk or visit, and pets are always supervised appropriately. With experience handling German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, and professionally trained service dogs, I’m comfortable working with strong, energetic, and highly driven dogs. I use a calm, structured approach and pay close attention to each dog’s body language, temperament, and comfort level. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them out for exercise, my goal is to provide a safe, dependable environment where they feel comfortable and well cared for.
About: I have a husky malamute mix that I walk everyday. I love bringing her on hikes and exploring nature with her. I have trained her well and taught her many tricks. I am confident that I can take good care of dogs. I currently work part time with a short day, so I am free in the morning until noon and after 3PM to take the dogs out for a walk. I have a fenced yard and a friendly husky to keep your fur baby company. There are also many dog toys to keep them entertained.
“We had a wonderful experience with Tia and would absolutely book with her again. From the start, she was incredibly responsive and communicative, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. She clearly genuinely cares about the pets she looks after, and it really showed in how attentive and thoughtful she was with our cat. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos—she kept us well-informed and reassured the whole time. It was clear our cat was comfortable and well cared for, which means everything to us. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
“Okay, I have to rave about this sitter for a sec. My cat is usually pretty shy around new people, but she won him over almost immediately; no idea how, but I'm not complaining! She sent photo/video updates every day I was gone, which honestly made the trip so much more relaxing. Litter box clean, feeding on point, and she even picked up on him being a little mopey one day and gave him some extra snuggle time without me even asking. Also grabbed my package that was outside the door, which was such a nice bonus. I came home to a happy, chill cat and zero stress. 10/10, would book again in a heartbeat. If you need someone trustworthy and clearly obsessed with animals, this is your person!”
About: Hi! I’m Sophie, I'm 28, and I'm someone who genuinely enjoys spending time outdoors and being around animals. While I’m relatively new to pet care, I’m eager, attentive, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I stay active and go on daily walks (usually about an hour), so I’m especially excited about opportunities to walk dogs and keep them engaged. I’ve had some hands-on experience walking a friend’s dog, and I’ve really enjoyed building that routine and connection. I also have a small goldfish tank at home, so I’m familiar with the basics of maintaining a pet environment. In terms of availability, starting April 16th, I expect to work full time in office Monday through Friday (with early dismissal on Fridays) and I’ll be available on Friday evenings and throughout the weekends. I would be comfortable offering services for dog walking and making drop-in visits. I would like getting to know your pet's routines and what would be expected from me.
About: Hi! I’m an experienced and safety-focused pet sitter based in Brooklyn, with years of hands-on care for dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and needs. I’ve worked long-term with local families, volunteered with NYC Sean Casey Animal Rescue, and currently work part-time with a Westchester-based pet care company. I’m confident handling everything from high-energy pups to more sensitive or reactive dogs, and I always prioritize calm, structured, and attentive care. What You Can Expect From Me: * Reliable, communicative care and insight (updates + photos) * Safety-first handling, especially in busy NYC environments * Experience with different temperaments and behavioral needs * Respect for your dog’s routine, boundaries, and training Boarding & Home Setup My apartment in Brooklyn and family home in Westchster is pet-friendly and set up with safety in mind: * No toxic plants within reach * Pets allowed on furniture unless you prefer otherwise * Supervised outdoor time with long-lead setups * Quiet, controlled environment away from heavy street traffic While I don’t have a fenced yard, I make up for it with structured walks, enrichment, and safe outdoor exposure. My apartment has a large gated patio, and my family home has two large grassy areas between a patio with a long lead for supervised outdoors time. I currently work freelance in roles that allow me to be home and present throughout the day. I also work part-time with a pet care company based in Westchester on a flexible schedule which has strengthened my hands-on experience with a wide range of dogs and routines. I’m based in Brooklyn and have access to both my apartment and my family home in Westchster for boarding, depending on what best suits your pet’s needs. My schedule allows me to provide consistent care, regular walks, and attention throughout the day rather than long periods of absence. I’m also open to traveling across the Tri-state area for house sitting and extended stays. I’ve been a trusted pet care companion for years, working with local families for both long-term and short stays (up to three weeks), as well as drop-in visits. For boarding, my home is fully pet-friendly, with no restrictions on furniture (unless you prefer otherwise) and no toxic plants within reach. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I provide safe, supervised outdoor time using a long lead in nearby grassy areas, along with access to a private patio. We’re also set back from the main road, which creates a calmer environment. For house sitting, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while respecting your home. I’m clean, responsible, and low-impact, and I treat every space with care. I follow feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions closely so your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. Safety is always my top priority. I’m attentive, cautious, and respectful when interacting with all animals and other dogs we may encounter. I always follow each owner’s guidance when it comes to socialization, ensuring your pet stays within their comfort zone.
About: I offer full-time, in-home dog sitting and boarding in a calm, loving environment near the beach. Dogs stay in my home, where their comfort and safety are my top priority. My space is fully set up for dogs of all sizes, with plenty of toys, cozy beds, and dedicated areas for rest and play. Each dog receives personalized care, attention, and a relaxed home atmosphere—never cages or overcrowding. For owners needing extended stays, I also offer free pick-up and drop-off, making longer bookings easy and stress-free. Whether your dog is here for a short visit or a longer stay, they’ll be treated like family. Pet care is a central part of my life. As a pet owner myself, I genuinely enjoy the companionship of animals and being able to provide them with attentive, loving care. I am available for in-home boarding at my home, as well as dog sitting and pet sitting (including cat sitting) in clients’ homes. I accept both advance bookings and last-minute requests when availability allows. Feel free to reach out to me directly with any questions or to schedule care. ❤️🐕🐈🌎
“Lucy is so sweet, and responsible! Highly recommend. This was our first time retaining a pet sitter and I was very nervous. She made me feel at ease and our kitty was happy <3”
“Natalya took care of our cat while we were away for a long weekend. From my first interaction with Natalya, she was warm, responsive and responsible. Every interaction thereafter confirmed these impressions. Our cat took to her immediately when she first came in for an introduction - not something he does easily with most people (usually just hides). While we were away, Natalya sent photos and updates during her drop in visits. She definitely put our mind at ease that our cat was in good hands and being taken care of. I highly recommend Natalya and would not hesitate to use her services again.”
“Yana was fantastic with our two cats! She was very caring and attentive and sent us updates about anything we might want to know about - and also cute cat photos. She even took notice that our automatic feeder wasn't working and reset it for us. I would definitely recommend her.”
About: Hello, my name is Tyler, and I’ve been a pet owner to my dogs pinky and fendi for the past 14 years. I have also taken care of the dogs of my family and friends, and always make sure that they feel comfortable in their environment. All pets are family to me, and feel comfortable in my care. Looking forward to meeting your fluffy friends! I am currently working in a school, but get out at 3 everyday. So I will be ready to walk your pet for evenings and on weekends. When a pet comes into my home, I try to make them feel as comfortable as possible. When in a clients home, I try to keep them in their regular routine, and make sure that whatever is asked by the owner is completed without fail.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Coney Island
Dayanara did a great job with my cat. She was on time and made sure she got all instructions right- my cat has to take some supplements. Everything was clean spoon and extra dish I left for my cat and litter box was cleaned. She is reliable and punctual. Thank you!
Maria was absolutely amazing! She was taking care of my cat Mist for a week and she went above and beyond to make sure my kitty was happy and healthy. I especially appreciated great communication with Maria, and a daily doze of cute pictures and videos of my cat!! Will definably trust Maria with taking care of Mist in the future
Tia is the best! She's been our trusted cat sitter for the last few trips over the past year and both we and our cat adore her. My cat can be slow to warm up but liked Tia right off the bat. She's warm, loving, caring and communicative. She writes up great updates that are reassuring to read while we're away and sends plenty of photos to catch us up on how our little guy is doing. She went above and beyond by spending extra time with out Kitty this week when he seemed to not be feeling good, which she offered to do on her own, and which we were really touched by. We are big fans of Tia and recommend her wholeheartedly!! ❤️
Heather is so wonderful! She goes above and beyond and just truly loves animals. My favorite thing about her is that she’s SUPER knowledgeable about pets and knows how different their needs can be. She’s patient and flexible and provides the exact custom treatment every pet deserves. Can’t recommend Heather enough!
Olga was wonderful! She followed all of our instructions carefully and took great care of our cats while we were away. She was reliable, attentive, and very easy to communicate with. We really appreciated her help and felt comfortable knowing our cats were in good hands. Thank you so much, Olga! We would happily book with her again.

Barbara took such great care of my cat Luna while I was away for a week giving her the same love and care as I would. She provided excellent photos, videos and daily updates while keeping in touch with me the entire time I was gone. Everything was also very clean when I came back. I never felt more safe having someone watch over my Luna. I would highly recommend Barbara to anyone looking for a kind and trustworthy sitter. Luna and I look forward to seeing you again soon!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Coney Island on Rover is $26.16 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 12,289 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Coney Island. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Coney Island. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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.
