“We had a great experience with Tori! She is reliable, caring, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly felt comfortable with her. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pups were in such good hands. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!!!”

About: Hi! I’m Cassandra, a caring, reliable, and experienced dog lover who has grown up caring for dogs and understands how much love, patience, and attention they need. I currently have a 6-year-old Bichon Shih Tzu who is a big part of my family, so I’m very comfortable with daily walks, playtime, cuddles, and keeping a pup happy and comfortable. I’ll treat your dog with the same care and affection I give my own, while making sure every walk and sit is safe, fun, and stress-free! 🐾 if you are happy with my services, tips are greatly appreciated. I work part time in Huntington. I work Tuesday through Friday in office and Thursday’s remote, 10-4 Weekends are free, and Mondays I am off. I am very personable with animals and their parents. I take a lot of time and care into my work with pets and people, and their homes too.

About: I am passionate about having happy pets and Pet Parents. I would treat each dog as if they were my own. My two fur babies include two ShihZu/terrior mixes Rugby and Veuve. Having my own dogs helps me understand on a personal level the type of care each pet parent would want for their family member. In my experience I have dog sat for a puppy Doodle for a family friend named Allison , an older Doodle named Bryland owned by my friend Ryan also for a puppy named Molly who needed supervision after a medical procedure . All would attest that their dogs were very well taken care of.I also have experience with walking dogs at a local animal shelter Save A Pet. I also helped care for cats there as well.

About: I am open to providing walks, check ins, and sitting overnight. I’ve had the pleasure of taking care of our golden retriever for four years now and along those years I’ve helped dog sit for neighbors, friends, and coworkers. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and breeds. From small poodles to bigger labs, I’ve walked and deeply enjoyed taking daytime and overnight care for all. I have open availability throughout the weekends and the week and can work with you depending on specific needs and notice ! Looking forward to provide the best care possible as I know how deeply important that is for pet parents as a golden retriever parent myself! I’m currently working part time so I do have availability’s Mondays and Thursdays as well as weekends as needed. Open to working with most schedules. I am open to drop ins and have experience taking care of dogs overnight in homes as well. Have experience walking and caring for dogs of all sizes.

“Jordan is an absolute dream! She took care of my dog this past weekend and kept me updated with the cutest videos and pics all day. She spoke to my dog so kindly and was so gentle in the videos. I know my dog so well and could tell that she adores Jordan and felt very comfortable with her. I tend to get a lot of anxiety leaving my dog with other people and I can confidently say I never had any anxiety this week. Jordan was so attentive and amazing for keeping me in the loop. She also stayed at my home and I’m pretty sure she left it cleaner than when she arrived! I cannot wait to work with Jordan again.”

About: I have a genuine love for animals and enjoy spending time caring for them. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and different needs. I am patient, responsible, and attentive, and I always strive to make pets feel safe, comfortable and loved. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing or providing companionship, I treat every pet with the same love and attention I would give my own. I’m currently a second year medical student with a mostly remote schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attentive and loving care for your pets. Since I spend much of my time studying from home, I’m able to offer frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of companionship throughout the day. I enjoy having animals beside me while I study and can easily incorporate their needs into my daily routine. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to leave your animals with someone you can trust. Whether caring for your dogs in my home or yours, I will provide a clean, calm, loving and safe environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines and any special instructions provided by the owner.

About: Hi! I am an experienced pet sitter with over 10 years of animal experience. I studied animal science as an undergrad and will be starting veterinary school this winter. I have also worked in veterinary clinics over the past few years, providing me with experience in administering medications and providing care for animals with specific needs. I am comfortable caring for animals of all ages, shapes, and sizes! I'm a fairly active person who loves the outdoors, so I am always up for long walks or simply playing in the yard. I have some extra time before starting veterinary school, so I have a very flexible schedule that I am looking forward to filling with your furry family members! I currently have a very flexible schedule before I begin veterinary school this winter, so I have plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I’m happy to work with your schedule and provide consistent, reliable care for your pets throughout the week, including weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. With my experience in veterinary clinics and animal care, I’m comfortable administering medications, following specific care instructions, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would my own, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.

“Liz was everything we could ask for and more in the way she housesit and cared for our special needs beagle. She took him on great walks, had no trouble administering his meds (11 pills twice a day plus some additional in his food), and was constantly updating us with photos, videos, and texts. She put us totally at ease being away from our pet, and that is rare given the demands of a special needs dog. She is at the top of our list and is the first person we’ll call anytime we go away again.”

About: I have been surrounded by all kinds of animals growing up: dogs, cats, bunnies, even reptiles so I absolutely love animals! I have experience with all kinds of dog breeds like pitbulls, english mastiffs, german shepards, and of course the smaller guys! I’ve always trained my own dogs. I have taken care of friends’ and family’s dogs since I was 14, but I have never been without a dog my whole life! I’m currently a college student studying nursing, so I have clinical until 3:00pm on Mondays and class until 12:00pm on Thursdays. Other than that I’m pretty available throughout the week and flexible on weekends, so I have plenty of time to care for your dogs! I currently live in dorms so I don’t offer boarding. But I would love to play with your dog inside/outside of your house for drop-in’s and walks!

About: I believe exceptional pet care starts with understanding the dog in front of you—not treating every dog the same. My goal is to create a calm, structured home where your dog feels safe, understood, and genuinely enjoys their stay. Every dog is unique, so I take the time to learn their personality, routines, communication style, and comfort needs. Whether they’re playful and outgoing, shy and observant, or simply adjusting to a new environment, I adapt my care to meet them where they are. Caring for dogs has been part of my life for over 28 years, but what truly shaped my approach was fostering and working with dogs who each needed something different. I’ve learned that good care isn’t about following the same routine for every dog—it’s about observing, listening, and responding to the individual in front of you. During their stay, your dog becomes part of our daily rhythm. We balance supervised play, enrichment, rest, outdoor time, and plenty of affection. My own dog, Winter, loves welcoming compatible playmates, and I carefully supervise introductions and interactions to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe. Every dog adjusts differently to a new environment. Most settle in quickly, while others need additional one-on-one support, enrichment, or supervision to feel comfortable. If I determine that a dog requires a significantly higher level of individualized care than expected, I’ll discuss it with you before making any adjustments to the booking. My goal is always to be transparent so we can provide the best possible experience for both you and your dog. I pet sit and offer dog behavioral support on a full time basis. This allows me to customize my schedule around the specific needs of your pups feeding times, walks, and routines. It also means that your dog will be given the attention, enrichment, and reassurance throughout the day that they deserve while adjusting to a new environment. My goal is for every pet to feel at comfortable and at ease while under my care. I pride myself on being able to offer peace of mind for each and every individual I work with. In order to accomplish this, I prioritize safety, trust, and communication. I send daily updates with photos/videos so you can see your baby is being well taken care of. When caring for more than one pet at a time in my space I do very slow, supervised introductions with my own dog, Winny, who is a very playful, well socialized, happy girl. If your dog prefers space, I can easily accommodate comfortably separating the pups as needed both indoor and outdoors.

About: Family, friends call me Titi Sammy. Why?! I watch and take care of everyone’s kids! And you know it.. our dogs are our kids too :) A little about me: I have a passion for helping stray and neglected dogs. I volunteer with many rescues in Puerto Rico. I do airport transport, coordinate with fosters (and foster), and love on pups that come to the states while they wait to meet their forever families :) Hoping to run my own rescue one day! I work remotely! I have a super flexible schedule. This makes it very easy to keep your pup’s at home routine. Frequent potty and play breaks too! I am not currently caring for pets in my home, but can take your pups out for walks, or let them out back. Feed and of course give them extra love :)

Elaine was attentive, kind, and just a joy with my doggies. I got updates and pictures without ever having to ask, and she showed so much empathy and understanding when one of my dogs had a behavioral lapse. I highly recommend her.

FAQs for House Sitting - Cove Neck

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 18,072 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cove Neck. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Cove Neck walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Cove Neck maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

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 Cove Neck 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!

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.

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.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cove Neck. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% 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.
