I chose Lisa & Michael for the 1st time because of the good reviews. I was concerned at 1st to let strangers in our house & let strangers look after our beloved dog. My concerns somewhat went away after our meet & greet. When it was time to go on our vacation & they started their visits & sent us pictures & text updates my concerns totally went away. They fed, cleaned up, let the dog out & pet our dog while we were gone. Service was excellent and both Of them were amazing & trustworthy. They were prompt and attentive to our dog. (they also made sure that dog beds were washed) They went above & beyond with their services. I'm very pleased with what they did & will definitely book them again without second thought.

Paige took wonderful care of our cat, Charlie, while we were away for a few days. She was very communicative, sending photos and updates, and we came home to a happy, calm cat. We’d definitely recommend Paige and would gladly hire her again!

About: I've always been an animal lover and grew up in Suffolk county caring dogs, chickens, quail and rodents! I'm the go-to pet care person for my friends and family and would love the opportunity to care for your pets! I'm a former volunteer of Save-A-Pet in Port Jeff Station where I cared for dozens of cats every weekend. I have experience with animals of all ages. I am comfortable dispensing medication for aging or ill pets. I've also cared for puppies and have even assisted in delivering a litter of goldendoodles! My pets are always a part of the family and I'd treat yours the same way! I'm currently a contractor worker for animation and advertising. Because my work is project and delivery based my schedule is flexible. I care for pets during the day and do my contract work in the late evenings so I'll have plenty of time to devote to your pets. I treat all animals with the care I would show to my own pets. I take care instructions seriously and respect each animals needs and preferences to ensure their comfort and safety.

Tricia was wonderful with our 2 cats. We were away for a weekend for our daughter’s wedding so we needed someone that would care for them like we would. Tricia did that & more. It was wonderful to not have to worry about our fur babies while we were celebrating our human baby. Thank you Tricia!

About: Hi, I’m Ana! I’m a college student looking to earn extra cash before heading back to campus. What better way than doing what I love? I’d love to walk or sit your dog! EXPERIENCE: I rescued my 3rd dog and she was pregnant! I fostered 4 puppies till they were 2 months old & they recently found there forever homes! 🤍 I have 3 dogs and 6 cats(which are outside or in there own room) I’ve taken care my animals since I was 13. I love being someone any pet can trust and be comfortable with, & love meeting new animals! 🐶🐱💘💘 Since I’m home from college right now, pet care is my top priority! My schedule is completely open, giving me full flexibility to care for your pets at any time. Whether you need early morning walks, middle-of-the-day check-ins, or overnight weekend boarding, I have plenty of free time to give your furry friend the dedicated attention, playtime, and love they deserve every day. I offer a safe, spacious, and welcoming home environment! We have a large, fully fenced yard perfect for outdoor play. My own dogs are very friendly, love company, and get along great with visitors.

About: Hey, I’m Janelle. Some people call me Nelly. I’ve grown up around all types of dogs my whole life and love being around them. I just want to be an extra hand for anyone who needs someone reliable to watch or walk their pups.I really love being active and getting outside, so I'm always down to take your dogs out for a good walk or run to keep them entertained and get their energy out. I'm also totally happy to just hang out on the couch, brush them out, or give them some good belly rubs if they're more of a couch potato.I'll treat your dogs like they're my own. Let me know if you need any help! I’m currently working part-time and from home, so I have a flexible schedule that can work around yours if needed. I have zero responsibilities besides myself and others that I care about, and your pet can easily be another. Whether you need a midday check-in, a quick walk, or someone to hang out with them while you're at work, I have plenty of open windows to make it happen. I only watch pets at the client’s house, I don’t do any boarding at my own place. When I’m at your house, I just focus on keeping your pet’s routine exactly how they like it so they don't get stressed out. I'm always super careful about keeping doors locked and making sure no quick cats or dogs try to slip out past me. I'll follow whatever instructions you leave for food, walks, or medicine, and I’ll send you updates and pictures so you know everything is good.

About: I have been a dog walker for my neighbor for 5 years. I have experienced in pet sitting small and big dogs, as well as puppies and senior dogs. In my free time I walk senior dogs from a shelter. Over these years and with all my experiences, I have learned dog expressions and warning signs which help me to prevent dogs from any triggering behavior. I’m am a college student and work a weekend job. During the week after classes I have free time to dog walk. I keep my calendar updated regularly for any days where I might not be available throughout the week. I live in an apartment, which is why I choose only small to medium sized dogs to board. I have a large yard that is fenced except for the driveway entrance, for your pets safety I only take dogs into the yard with a leash and as always constant supervision.

About: Hi! I'm Bri ☺️ I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I've lived with animals since before I could talk, and caring for them has always been something I genuinely enjoy. Over the years I've had the opportunity to care for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I love getting to know what makes each of them unique. 🐶🐰 I'm currently offering walking and drop in visits. I know every fur baby is different. Some want to play the entire visit, while others are happiest taking a slow, sniffy walk or getting belly rubs on the couch. I'm happy to meet them where they're comfortable and give them the kind of care that helps them feel relaxed and happy. 🐾 As a dog mom myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your fur baby. I treat each and every one as if they were my own and always make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and patience. I'll also send lots of photos and updates during every visit so you can relax knowing your baby is happy and in good hands. 📸 I'm comfortable caring for baby, adult, and senior pets and I can administer oral medications if needed. My goal is to make every visit a positive experience for both you and your fur baby. I can't wait to meet you guys! 🩷 I work from home, which gives me some flexibility throughout the week. My availability can vary depending on my work schedule, so let me know what you're looking for and I'll do my best to make it work! 😊 Your baby's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I'll follow your care instructions closely, whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, giving medication, playing with a specific toy, or reinforcing your training routines. I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own and make sure your fur baby gets plenty of love, attention, and care while you're away. 🩷

At my home we have a fenced-in small patio and plenty of time and space in my neighborhood to take pets on walks to provide daily exercise. I also like to take pets to local parks to release more energy if needed.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Farmingville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Farmingville on Rover is $22.2 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 Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 3,229 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Farmingville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Farmingville 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.

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 Farmingville 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!

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 dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Farmingville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.
