“Bridget was reliable and really great with my dog. I loved the pictures she sent when she came to let her out. It’s a great feeling to know your dog is good hands and then get the happy pictures to back it up is even better.”

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 have always had a love of dogs! I have dog walked and doggy sit for years! I even foster dogs from time to time to help all these furbabies find their furever home. I am a very mature dog owner and i would be perfect to watch your furbabies. I can work flexible hours because my schedule changes. I have a huge backyard, unfortunately its not fenced so i always make sure that any dog that im watching is on a leash. I love going on walks and exploring new areas, so walking a dog is no problem for me. I have no issue staying at your house for a few days while you're gone if that is easier for your dog! I would love nothing more than to watch your dogs for you.

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: I had my first dog at the age of 15. I know how to take care of the dogs, follow instructions to feed prescription dog food, and walk them. I have been helping a lot of friends taking care of their dogs when they were away. I am a teacher. I will be free after 3:45 pm and over the weekend. I normally sleep in Saturday morning, but if you need me to be there early, I can manage to wake up. My cat is the "only child" in my house. Sadly he doesn't go along with the other pets. But I can go into your house to take care of the pets. The safety zone is important for pets as well.

About: I've grown up with and have been surrounding by dogs my whole life. I have fostered 50+ dogs through a local animal shelter to save them from threatening situations. I have been a veterinary assistant for 4 years and have worked at three different animal hospitals! I am an active and continuous volunteer at two different animal shelters. I am currently an undergraduate student on the pre-veterinary track. I have recently started pet sitting/ walking to get more time with animals! I am an animal care intern working part time so my hours change weekly but am pretty flexible. I am available most weekends for walkings and visits and most weekdays for dog sittings. I try to make the pets as comfortable as possible, especially if they are in an unfamiliar environment or meeting me for the first time. I love animals and just want to give them all the love in the world, but understand that they have boundaries the same way people do. I am also very comfortable handing medical treatments/ pill upkeep if the animal needs.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have a deep love for caring for them—especially dogs. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds, from tiny Chihuahuas to energetic Australian Shepherds and strong, loving Pit Bulls. I’ve raised and trained puppies, and I’m also comfortable providing gentle, attentive care to senior dogs with special needs. Patience, kindness, and reliability are at the heart of how I care for every pet. I’m excited to combine my passion for dogs with meaningful, trustworthy care for your furry family member. Caring for animals is a natural part of my daily life. I structure my day around the needs of the pets I’m caring for—whether that’s morning walks, mealtime routines, playtime, or quiet companionship. I make sure every pet gets the attention, love, and consistency they need to feel safe and happy. Pet care isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to each day. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I take time to learn each pet’s needs—feeding schedules, energy levels, medical requirements, and favorite activities—so I can provide consistent, loving care. In my home, pets have a calm, secure space where they can relax and feel at ease. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow their routine closely to minimize stress and help their pet feel comfortable in their own environment. I treat every pet like my own and do everything I can to make them feel happy, safe, and loved.

About: I have owned pets since I was 4 years old. I have worked in the veterinary field since I was sixteen and am starting my 2nd year of veterinary school at Long Island University. Over the years I have pet sit for a total of 25 different dogs, 15 cats, a bearded dragon, a hamster, guinea pigs, and a turtle. I am able to medicate any dogs or cats, as well as give any injections needed (ex. insulin). I also have experience at a dog daycare where I was in charge of over 40 dogs of all sizes in one large yard together. I am currently working full time at UrgentVet and work second shift so I am available in the mornings or any time on my days off. When school starts at the end of August, I will be able to work around my class schedule and make adjustments as needed for your pet. I care for pets as if they are my own. I make sure they are comfortable and keep their daily routine that they are used to, to make sure everything goes as smooth as possible.

About: I’ve taken care of my families dog since I was 13 years old. I currently have a maltipoo who’s 2 years old and I’ve had him since he was a puppy. I’ve also taken care of neighbors dogs in the past as well and they relied on me when they were out of town. I am currently working from home on mondays and Fridays so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I can walk at any point in my day if I don’t have a prior meeting scheduled. I love going for walks to keep dogs active throughout the day. Treats are a necessity and positive reinforcement is needed to be the dogs new best friend

About: Hello, I have experience dog sitting for friends and family. My childhood German Shephard instilled in me a love of all canine creatures that I carry with me to this day. I would love to chat with you and help you with what you and your dog needs and wants. Proud caretake of a black cat, originally my grandmothers that she can't take care of anymore due to a stroke. All animals are deserving of a friendly face who they feel is there to love and help them! I live on Long Island but also work in Roosevelt Island in NYC. I'm willing to serve dogs in both communities. I want to help out with animals because I truly love and cherish them. Thanks for reading! Native English Speaker with some Spanish and French proficiency. Respectful of all Races/Ethnicities/Religions/Orientations/Gender Expression's. I'm usually good before 2pm in the daytime and then some evenings by appointment after 8pm-9m. If this doesn't work for you we can talk about making the schedule work to see if its possible. Comfortable with walking big dogs and dogs that push the walker as well. Have no problem with dogs of any size and good to get them to run around a while to get some energy out if needed.

About: I’ve owned, or have been taking care of dogs since I was 10! I’ve owned a total of 4 dogs throughout my 22 years of life, and once I was old enough, my parents trusted me to help take care of them all! This includes walks, feeding, showers, hygiene, and playing with them! I love and appreciate all breeds and all sizes, and hope you’ll consider me to take care of your fur babies! I am currently working one, part-time job, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pet(s)! My schedule varies based on a self selecting schedule, however, this leaves room to work around whatever your preferred schedule is! I am very good at staying on top of communication, if there are ever any questions about when I’m home and how long I can be home for, I will be fully transparent! I have a large, fenced in yard, in the back of a spacious, and open layout home! our neighborhood is quiet, dog friendly, and has lots of safe walkways to provide your dog exercise! Me and my roommates also own a total of 3 sweet kitties, that either keep your baby company, or are easy to keep occupied in our individual spaces to provide the most comfortable environment for your dog!

About: Hi everyone! With 6 years of experience caring for all kinds of animals, I absolutely love what I do and treat every pet like my own. My background includes working part-time for a family with 7 dogs of all sizes, which taught me how to handle multiple pets and diverse personalities seamlessly. I currently have two adorable cats and have raised dogs of my own in the past, so I understand both dog and cat needs inside and out. I am very active, I love being on the move and ensuring your pets get all the exercise, long walks, and playtime they need. Being around animals is not only something I excel at, but it is also something I truly enjoy and find incredibly rewarding! I am a master's student right now- so I have multiple days off per week and spend lots of time at home studying, which gives me ample opportunity to fit your pets into my weekly schedule. Because I have a strong background in babysitting, I am completely comfortable, responsible, and mindful of privacy and boundaries while working inside someone else's home. I make sure your pets feel safe and secure in their own environment by sticking strictly to their familiar feeding schedules, keeping their water fresh, administering any medication, and keeping their spaces clean. I'm also super active, so I fill our time together with long walks, high-energy playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention so they never feel lonely. Ultimately, I treat your home and your pets with the exact same care, love, and respect that I give to my own.

I cannot recommend Tori enough! Leaving my cats for two weeks was something I was really anxious about, but she made me feel completely at ease from the very beginning. She was incredibly reliable, attentive, and caring, and I could tell my cats were genuinely comfortable and happy with her (even one of my cats who is scared of everyone, liked her!) she has such good energy and she kept me updated throughout my entire trip, which gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to actually relax and enjoy being away without constantly worrying about them. It’s such a huge relief to find someone you truly trust with your pets, especially for such a long trip. I came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and everything exactly as it should be. I’m so grateful for the care she gave them and will absolutely be using her again. If you’re nervous about leaving your pets, she is exactly the kind of person you want taking care of them!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Cove Neck

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 25,793 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cove Neck. 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 Cove Neck. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 88% 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 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.
