“AMAZING service! Katharine is super kind and took excellent care of Keith over the week. She is trustworthy, communicative, and takes plenty of photos. She even helped move some plants for me when she noticed Keith had been chewing them. 10/10⭐️ will book again”
“Amanda was amazing with our dogs and bunny. Dogs were very comfortable with her and were very happy to see her each drop in . She was very attentive and detailed in each drop in and kept in touch throughout the whole week. I would highly recommend using her for any of your pets needs”
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.
About: I’m a veterinary technician and I have been in the field for 5 years now. I have been taking care of pets for years and truly enjoy spending time with them and caring for them. I would love to provide the best care for your pet! I work full time Monday-Thursday from 8-6. Fridays I have off and Saturday I work 8-2. I do have a busy schedule but will put in the effort to meet your requirements. I can drop in multiple times a day and stay at your home if needed. I work with scared/nervous pets daily and I will ensure I gain their trust and keep them comfortable at all times. I follow rules as requested and always put the pets needs first
“Daniela was so great with our pups over a long weekend! She sent photos during every visit and even left a sweet note, with printed photos of our pups, for us to find when we got back from our trip! Would definitely book again, she was very sweet, professional and it’s clear she is an animal lover.”
“Madison is a great dog sitter. She is very easy to communicate with and kept me up to date when playing with my puppy. She is great with my puppy who is still in the process of getting potty trained and is very energetic. I highly recommend contacting her and booking her to sit.”
“Kelly is the cat whisperer (for dogs too!!) My 7 month of age ‘Cornish Rex” Luna loved Kelly for knowing everything about kitten/cat life. She provided play time, kitty meal time, along width affection. And during Luna rest time her liter boxes and dishes were cleaned. Kelly also advised me regarding a skin care question I had about Luna too. She is very professional, reliable and experienced with dog/puppy care too. I highly recommend her with confidence.”
“Elena took amazing care of our cats while we were on vacation. She made sure to communicate frequently and gave plenty of updates. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone who wants their fur babies in safe hands”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other pets since I was little. Pets of my own, family and friends. I’ve always been dependable and so loving of animals. I’m here to give them the little bit of extra love throughout the day while the parents are away. I am available throughout most of the day! I have my own car, no problem there. I can do multiple potty breaks throughout the day if necessary! I provide pets with a happy environment. I do live in an apartments so I don’t usually care for pets in my home but I can if needed.
“I highly recommend Morgan! She took amazing care of my cat, Mickey, and paid attention to every little detail. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring and reliable hands.”
“Donna did a wonderful job with my 2 kitties! She went above and beyond to take care of all their needs and give them lots of TLC. My kitties took to her right away and loved her company! She is very responsive too, which is much appreciated. Already booked another visit. Thanks Donna! ?”
“The recent 8/2 drop in visit was our 4th or 5th rebooking with Kerry. She is responsive & prompt. More importantly, she is caring to our two dogs. I highly recommend her.”
About: When I was younger I had a hamster. A bird. A dog. I used to take care of a neighbors cat and a neighbors dog. Living on my own I had a hamster and I now have a guinea pig. It’s been a long time since i have taken care of other people’s pets but I am reliable and responsible. I will take care of dogs. Cats. Hamsters. Gerbils. Guinea pigs. Rabbits. Anything with fur. I am currently looking for a job so right now I have lots of free time on my hands. I don’t have family responsibilities. I live in an upstairs co op. I have a guinea pig in a cage. Your pet would get a lot of love and attention from me. I wouldn’t just feed it and walk it and go. I would spend time with it.
About: I AM BACK !! And I AM SO HAPPY TO BE BACK! NOW My husband, Carlos and I both have a pure love for animals as we have been around them and cared for them our whole life. Our love of 10years, Cali, passed away in 2022. Since then we have two beautiful girls, Winnie and Akira. They are amazing dog and get along well with other animals. They are both high energy, full of spunkiness and love! I have taken care of dogs as small as a Pomeranian to as big as a Pit Bull. I have taken care of dogs with minor injuries (gash that needed to be cared for while the owners where away - prior injury to their stay w me) and I am not afraid to administer any oral medications. We live at a private condo community with lots of walking areas. We have a nice size yard with plenty of room to chill. The yard is also fully fenced. Please note for the Doggy Day Care all dogs must be dropped off by 8:00am. We look forward to speaking with you and at the opportunity to care for your furry family member!! I have to keep to a schedule and routine because of my own two dogs routines. Boarding: I am mostly available on the weekends from Friday evening 7pm until Sunday evening or Monday morning before 8am. We live in a private condominium so dogs will need to be walked on a leash at all times. We have plenty of outdoor space to walk them safely plus a fully fence yard.
About: I’ve had a dog pretty much my whole life, so I’m very used to taking care of them and being around them every day. I also spend a lot of time around my girlfriend’s cat and help take care of her, so I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats. I genuinely love animals and I’m someone you can trust to make sure your pet is well taken care of and gets plenty of attention while you’re away. I’m a commuter engineering student at Stony Brook, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and spend a lot of my week at home. Most days I’m only on campus for a few hours at a time, and I’m free all day on Saturdays. I do have an occasional longer class day, but even then I’m able to plan around your pet’s schedule. A lot of my schoolwork is done on my laptop, so when I’m pet sitting I’m happy to study and do my work from your home, which means I can spend plenty of time with your pet throughout the day. I also usually go to a local gym for about an hour and a half in the evening, but otherwise I’m around and can be pretty flexible. I’ll follow whatever routine you already have for your pet so they can stay as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’m active and in good shape, so I’m more than happy to take dogs on long walks or give them as much exercise as they’re used to. I can handle feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, litter boxes, and whatever else is part of their normal routine. I’m also completely comfortable sleeping with your pets if that’s what they’re used to, or giving them their own space so it’s really whatever you and your pet are most comfortable with. I’m happy to send pictures and updates too so you know they’re doing well.
“Amanda took amazing care of all of my animals. I am so grateful that she treated them as if they were her own. Nothing eased my mind better than knowing this while away in another country. Daily updates & photos were eagerly awaited by my daughter, especially. We highly recommend her for watching your fur babies.”
“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: I’ve worked at a Veterinary Hospital for 32 yrs, raised/trained more than 15 puppies to be service dogs & have been doing Animal Assisted Therapy since 1993. I have recently retired, set up my house to be dog friendly and now I have plenty of time to spend with my dogs and your pups! My home is clean and dog friendly with a fenced in backyard. All dogs are allowed on the couch (if you allow that) and my lap (small dogs plz). There are plenty of toys and dog beds for resting:) I also have many baby gates if a dog wants alone time.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Farmingville is $25

Amanda was excellent. Extremely responsive, punctual, and and provided us with frequent updates/photos. She took care of our pup while we were away via pop in visits. Everything went well. I’d highly recommend and will definitely be requesting her services in the future.
Bella was a pleasure to work with. She stays in touch leading up to the visit and afterward. She also did a great job of calming one of our more skittish kitties during our interview. We love the picture updates from the visit - thank you for those. Will definitely book again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet 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 Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 3,345 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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 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.
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.
