House Sitting in East Rockaway

“We love Anna! From the moment she asked if she could come meet my pup before booking, I knew she was amazing. Gracie, my 1 1/2 year old Maltipoo can be challenging and she was so patient and amazing with her. I felt so at ease going to my sister's wedding knowing that someone so caring, reliable, understanding, professional, and communicative was in my home with my fur baby. What I love most about Anna is her love for animals which shines through as soon as you meet her. She will contact you with any questions, which I love, and sent pictures and updates, also love! If you are thinking about booking with Anna, stop thinking and do it. You won't find another person quite like her! If we ever need a sitter again, she will be the first one we call. 💕🐶🐾”

“Amazing sitter! Great communication and updates and really did a great job with my dog. She is personable, friendly and great with my mini bernadoodle house-sitting.”

“I can’t recommend Alex enough! He accepted a very last minute booking, due to another sitter cancelling, and helped ensure I didn’t stress about it. Alex’s communication was thorough from start to finish - he even sent pics and vids throughout the day. He’s really great with dogs, and even helped me with a few pointers with my new pup. Definitely a reliable and caring guy!”

About: What makes me special about taking care of any type of pet is that I give them my unconditional love, I dedicate myself to them and I make them feel at home, cozy and I give them the attention they need. This helps me because I am very dedicated to my routine. I get up early, eat healthy and exercise. Just as I am dedicated to my daily routine, I am also dedicated to the animals that I take care of and I dedicate myself to them. I have neighbors with very friendly animals. I also provide them with a clean and hygienic area, take them for a walk, play with them and give them my dedication, time and love.

“Hilma was wonderful first time using Rover and hilma. She came beforehand for a meet and greet which was very appreciated.It was such a relief to find someone I felt comfortable with and trusted to leave my boy with and I will be using her again.

“Oswald was so incredibly helpful to me and my dog, Bear! Since Bear has mobility challenges, I enrolled him in rehab for physical therapy. Not only did Oswald help me with the lifting and carrying of Bear, he even generously drove us to and from the rehab center. His time, care, and attention meant a lot to me and is deeply appreciated. Thank you so much!”

“Hana was a fantastic sitter and I highly recommend her for boarding. She watched my dog Zuzu for a few nights and sent lots of videos and photos, which made me feel comfortable enjoying my trip while my dog was home. She was very thorough and neat, and a very thoughtful dog sitter. I recommend her for all your dog and cat sitting needs. :)”

“Ali went beyond our expectations as a sitter. She was wonderful and we are so grateful she was able to stay with our pups over the Thanksgiving holiday.

About: Being a dog owner of 15 years, while having many other wonderful pets I have always been around animals. Whether it is my own or my relatives pets and my friends pets as well. I always had an inclination to want to help and care for their animals if they ever needed help because I understand that they are family to us and I am someone who will care for your animal as if it were my very own. I work full time. I get back from work usually between 4:15pm and 4:45pm. But that doesn’t mean I won’t take the time out of my day to take great care of your pets! I am available Monday-Friday 5pm and 10pm. Saturdays 11am-5pm Sundays 10pm-6pm I value respecting one’s pet or pets as if they are family. I will treat your pet/s with respect, love, and care. I will do exactly the same In regards to respecting your home, belongings and privacy.

About: *I can do doggy daycare for multiple pets ONLY IF they are from the same family.* For the past 3 years, I've dog sat for small, medium, and larger dogs, and both older, younger, hyper-active and hyper-dormant animals! I love dogs and cats of all ages and all levels of trusting. I have experience walking dogs, watching animals overnight, and recognizing signs of either sickness or a change in behavior. I also have experience with reading animal emotions, and this has always helped me to get along well with the pets I'm sitting to make sure I don't overstimulate them or make them feel scared! I'm available all day on every weekday and almost all day on the weekends! I typically am only doing homework in the afternoons, and I normally go to the cat cafe to study, as I love to be around animals when I'm doing work, coloring, or even just relaxing because it brings me comfort. In my house, I have my own room with a shared living space, which is quite spacious, and I have fenced yard which is well-kept and trimmed regularly. In my home, I care for pets who like to roam by letting them roam outside or in my room. I also set up a separate area in the room which the animal has to themselves, so they have a reference place for relaxing, sitting down, and food and water if they don't want to chill with me on my bed/ get my attention all the time. In the client's home, I would want the animal to feel as comfortable as possible, so making sure the animal can go where they want to, and allow them to guide me where they want to go. Regardless of the environment, I will always place myself where the animal is, so if they want to go outside, I'll move my things outside until they want to go back inside; I don't want them to feel confined! I will allow a pet on my bed, but it depends honestly on how much they shed because then that makes my life a bit harder.

About: I have been taking care and loving them since I was 15. Love taking care of them there is nothing I wouldn’t do to make them comfortable. I am a full time employee, but flex able hours so I could work around to be there for yours pets. I love pets. They are family and should be treated as family. We can’t wait to meet your special friend. Any special needs or request will be happily accommodated. My home is fenced around and I have grass at the front so they could enjoy. My kids love playing and hanging out with them as well.I love taking them on walk which I enjoy best.

About: I am a certified canine coach for a local dog daycare company, with expert experience in play management, basic training, and of course, showering all pups with love. I recently graduated with a degree in Wildlife Biology, giving me a solid understanding of animal behavior, dog breeds and temperaments, and basic mammal morphology. I absolutely adore dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments, from 5 lb yorkies to 150 lb mutts! I have experience with all age ranges, having raised my childhood beagle from 4 months to senior years, along with currently raising a 3 year old golden cavalier. I currently work part time at a dog daycare, with my shifts typically lasting 2-7:30 pm. Shifts vary by week, and therefore so does my availability. Walks can be fit in easily during most morning hours, and overnight stays can often be worked out in accordance with work and my own pup's schedule. A typical overnight would have me at your home around 8, and there in the afternoon until about 1;30. If interested, I can also have your pup accompany me to work at daycare after passing a temprement test. I take great pride in providing the best care for your pup, helping them to stay on your set routines. While staying at your home, I will provide enrichment, exercise, and basic training along with tons of cuddles and love. I can crate dogs or have them cuddle up in bed with me depending on your preferences. Walks, feedings, and drop in can be scheduled at your convenience, barring my schedule for my daytime work.

“Jane was so amazing, caring and meticulous with caring for our 2 dogs (one of which is a senior dog). She sent us detailed updates, photos and videos which giving us peace of mind when we were away on vacation. She left our house cleaner than the way we left it. I am so happy we found a great caretaker for our pups after many failed attempts. Jane was our saving grace and we look forward to using her again! If you would like to hear more about our sit I'm happy to be a referral, she was that good!”

“Julina was great! She was very responsive, sent lots of updates, and helped make our first experience with Rover a positive one. When she asked if our new dog would be interested in playing and learning from her dog, Loki, we jumped at the chance. They played so well together and our dog came out of his shell. We'll be calling on Julina (and Loki) again.”

About: Hi! My name is Ally, and I’ve been a trusted caregiver for both children and dogs for over 14 years. I live in Oceanside with two other adults and my 10-pound Shorkie, who is the light of my life. Being a pet parent myself for over a decade, I understand just how important it is to feel confident that your pup is safe, loved, and well cared for when you’re away. I primarily dog-sat in California before moving to New York to attend school and work full-time as a babysitter. Now, I’m excited to offer dog sitting services again – both in my home and yours! 🐾 In-Home Dog Sitting (Small Dogs Only): Because of my own small pup, I can only welcome small dogs into my home for boarding. My girl is not spayed so I will only be accepting neutered males at this time. I offer a cozy, calm, and loving environment where your dog will feel like part of the family. 🐾 House Sitting & Drop-Ins: If your dog is more comfortable staying in their own home, I also offer house sitting or drop-in visits. I’m experienced, reliable, and always respectful of your space and your pet’s routine. Whether your dog needs cuddles, walks, or just a calm, caring presence, I’m here to help. Feel free to message me with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet! — Ally 🐾 Oceanside, NY **Use this link for $20 off your first booking: https://www.rover.com/sit/allya09846 ** My schedule is flexible, and I’m often home throughout the day, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, outdoor time, and affection. I structure my day around their needs, making sure they’re safe, stimulated, and snuggled. Whether it’s potty breaks, playtime, or cuddles on the couch, caring for dogs is naturally built into my daily rhythm. When dogs stay in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment tailored especially for small breeds. To ensure safety for my 10-pound Shorkie and other little companions, I only accept small dogs and always supervise interactions closely. I’m also equipped with portable pet playpens for added comfort and security, whether for rest, separation when needed, or safe outdoor time. When staying in a client’s home, I’m deeply respectful of your space and your pet’s routine—keeping things tidy, consistent, and stress-free. Clear communication and trust are at the heart of how I care for every animal.
