About: I have had a dog since I was 6 years old and been watching dogs since I moved to college! Families back in San Luis Obispo have relied on me to care of their pups for more than a week while they were out of town and take them on frequent walks. I have now been caring for dogs in NYC and have lots of experience raising puppies as well as administering medication to older dogs. I currently work full time as an engineer but have a lot of free time on the weekends to care for pups and much free time after work. I have a large open apartment with a beautiful grassy area at the bottom for the dogs to play and use the bathroom. I also have cared for dogs in other peoples homes and frequently take them on walks and make sure they use the potty.
“Cynthia os very sweet and took care of Lale with lots of attention and love. She os thoughtful, fed Lale, cleaned up after her and sent lots of photos. I will certainly book Cynthia again. Thank you so much!”
About: Hi! I’m a full time student looking to make some extra money, as well as meeting dogs. I have loved dogs since I was little and I have one of my own. He’s a 4 yr old Rottweiler mix named Montu. Previously I had a morkie mix who unfortunately passed due to old age a few years back. I have tons of experience with dogs from my own, to my friends and families. I understand how hard it can be to get their daily walks in when you work full time, so I would love to help others feel at ease. I hope I can have the pleasure of meeting your dog! Im currently in school full time but since its hybrid and I get out early most days I am able to make the time to care for your pets! I have experience with anything as I’ve had my own. If needed to give medications, walk, crate I am able to do it all.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Elmont
Nasimul & Dominique made my first Rover experience spectacular. They communicated during my days away, sending pictures at every visit. They were even patient with ChiChi, who takes a long time to warm up to anyone. That house was exactly how I left it. I would definitely like to work with them again in the future. Thank you so much for taking care of my Furbabies!! We appreciate you both!!
Azariah did a great job checking in on my dogs while I was away on vacation. I have 3 Yorkies and Azariah provided 2 drop-ins (early morning and evening) per day in which she let the dogs out to use the bathroom in the backyard and feed them. She provide text updates a d pictures. I would certainly book with her again!
Gerry and Samantha were the best pet sitters I could’ve imagined! They were attentive and communicative throughout the whole trip and they bonded really well with my cats. The best part of my day while traveling was when I would receive Jerry’s photos from their check ins. I definitely recommend :)
Juliana was amazing with our cats while we were on vacation. She is reliable and took great care of our cats. We have one older cat and she took time to try to get him to take his medication every day. She played with them and we never had to worry about them in her care. She is trustworthy and I recommend her to anyone looking for pet care.
Patricia is such a wonderful sitter. She is so supportive while you're away from your cat (or other pets!) My cat was having urine issues, and she let me know right away so I could get him checked out asap. Thank you as always, Patricia!! Don't hesitate to book with her!
Nicole was an absolute angel with Lale during a very stressful time for me. From day one, I could see how kind, caring, and genuinely loving she is with animals. Honestly, the best review comes from Lale herself — she would practically hop with excitement whenever she saw Nicole! Watching her little tail wag and seeing how happy she was made my heart so happy. Lale felt completely safe, loved, and spoiled in the best possible way. Knowing Nicole was with her gave me such comfort and peace of mind. She cared for Lale with so much affection and attention, as if she were her own. I’m beyond grateful for everything Nicole did for my sweet girl. Anyone would be lucky to have Nicole care for their pet — and their pet will probably fall in love with her just as much as Lale did! ❣️🐾💕
Sheryn was dependable and made sure to stop by every day to check on my cats while I was away, which gave me peace of mind. She was consistent with her visits and clearly cared about making sure they were okay. I appreciated her reliability and the effort she put into being there daily. Thank you, Sheryn, for helping look after my cats.
Caitlyn was fantastic! It was clear the cats felt comfortable and at home with her dropping in to take care of them. She came for a meet and greet ahead of time and went above and beyond with photos during each visit. With care and professionalism Caitlyn shows I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their fur-babies.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Elmont stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
