Connie was so attentive to my picky cat. It was clear she was very happy to have Connie stay with her for over a week and I came back to a house that was definitely cleaner than how I left it!

About: I have taken care of my neighbors dogs since I was a little kid. I would house sit for my next door neighbor and his two boxers, then when they had puppies I also helped take care of them before and after school. Then, I decided to get my own dog (Juco) he is now four years old, my ride or die, and the friendliest dog I have even met! But I love all animals and treat them all like my own! The summer months are a low period in my work schedule. But my daily routine usually consists of me taking my dog for a long walk in the morning, hitting the gym, then going to the office a few hours. After work I come home walk my dog again and spend time with him at the dog park! I can stay at your property while pet sitting or bring your dog to play with my friendly dog at my townhouse. My neighborhood is very dog friendly and has multiple parks within walking distance!

About: I had two dogs myself and with them i’ve grown and learned so much. Since they were old I’ve become an expert at administering medication and being beyond patient when it comes to them. I now have a 6 month kitten named Tiger. I’ve dealt with pets in their kitten/pup phase, their middle aged phase and their senior phase. I’m well equipped to handle any cat or dog! I’m free during the week which allows me to spend time with any pet that im pet sitting. Allows me to provide the best care possible. Between the apartment complexes theres a yard that the dogs could run around in. I also live a 10 minute way away from a dog park.

Overall, we had a positive experience with Sofia and Archie and Miles appeared to be well cared for while we were away. Everything seemed to go smoothly and we returned home to two happy dogs. My only suggestion would be more frequent communication and photos during the stay. As a pet parent, it's always reassuring to receive regular updates and see how the dogs are doing while you're away. Regardless, we appreciated the care provided and would definitely book again in the future.

About: As a pet care provider with one year of experience, I have gained a solid understanding of what it takes to keep furry friends healthy and happy. In my previous role, I provided daily care for dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, playing, administering medications, and providing companionship. I have a deep love for animals, and I always make sure to treat each pet with the care and attention they deserve. I understand that each animal has their own unique personality and needs, and I take the time to get to know each one individually to provide personalized care. I am comfortable handling pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I prioritize their safety at all times. I also have experience working with pet owners to ensure that their pets receive the care they need and that their expectations are met. In addition to my pet care skills, I am reliable, responsible, and trustworthy. I understand that pet owners put a great deal of trust in their pet care providers, and I take this responsibility seriously. With my experience and passion for animals, I am confident in my ability to provide exceptional pet care services. I am currently working full time but I have work from home days on Friday, as well as, free time after work and on weekends. As a pet care provider who takes care of pets at their owners' homes, I understand how important it is to provide high-quality and personalized care to each pet. Here's how I typically care for people's pets at their homes: Initial Consultation: Before starting the pet care services, I schedule an initial consultation with the pet owner to understand the pet's routine, habits, and preferences. I ask questions to get a better understanding of their pet's personality, likes, dislikes, and health status to provide tailored care. Feeding and Watering: I follow the pet owner's feeding and watering instructions and ensure that their pets have fresh water and food at all times. If the pet has any specific dietary needs or restrictions, I make sure to adhere to them. Exercise and Playtime: I provide exercise and playtime as per the pet owner's instructions. I take the pets for walks or play with them in the yard, depending on the pet's needs and preferences. I also ensure that the pets get enough physical activity and stimulation to keep them healthy and happy. Medication: If the pet requires medication, I make sure to follow the instructions provided by the pet owner. I administer the medication at the prescribed times and monitor the pet's condition to ensure that they are responding well to the medication. Clean-up and Maintenance: I clean up any messes that the pet may have made, such as spills, accidents, or litter boxes. I also make sure to keep the pet's area clean and tidy and dispose of any waste appropriately. Communication: Throughout the pet care services, I keep the pet owner informed about their pet's well-being and provide updates regularly. I also communicate with the pet owner to let them know if any issues arise. In summary, I take the responsibility of pet care seriously and provide personalized care to each pet at their home. My goal is to make sure that the pets are happy, healthy, and safe in their own environment.

About: As a lifelong animal lover and cat owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and patient with animals of all personalities. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my routine during evenings and weekends. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, making walks and drop-in visits an easy and enjoyable part of my week. I’m organized, punctual, and committed to providing reliable care while accommodating your pet’s specific schedule and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medication requirements, exercise routines, and household rules. I believe in creating a calm, positive environment where pets feel secure and respected

Alex did an outstanding job taking care of my dog, Blanch. I was initially anxious about leaving her with someone new, as she is very energetic and has a tendency to nip, so I’m always selective about who I trust around her. However, I recently went on vacation for a week and hired Alex to stay with her, and he exceeded my expectations. He was incredible, and Blanch adored him. His ability to adapt to different types of dogs, not just small lapdogs, is truly impressive. Whether your dog requires extra attention, special care, or frequent walks, Alex is attentive and agile. Blanch had her own little vacation with him, being pampered all week long. In fact, she wasn’t too pleased when I returned home and things went back to normal! I’m so grateful for Alex’s love and dedication to animals. I will definitely be using his services again.

About: I have 14 five star reviews on trusted housesitter and have experience with all ages and breeds ! Your pet will get consistent communication, thoughtful routines, and a sitter who truly pays attention to the small things—body language, energy levels, comfort cues, and what helps them relax or feel confident. I treat every pet like an individual, not a checklist, and I always go the extra mile to make sure they feel safe, happy, and understood while you’re away. I have ten five star reviews on trusted housesitters so let me know if you want the link to that profile I work remotely so have the ability to schedule in walks and potty breaks as needed. I have 14 five star reviews on trusted house sitter. love taking long walks so I will be able to do that at least once a day for active boys or girls. I care for pets based on the house rules. I will reinforce if they are not allowed on the furniture but if they are allowed I am always free for cuddles.

About: I have many years of hands-on experience caring for pets, even though I’m new to the Rover platform. What sets me apart is the patience, attention, and genuine care I give to every dog. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and needs so they feel safe and comfortable. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and ages, including senior dogs who may need a slower pace and extra care. I’m very attentive to behavior and routines, and I always prioritize consistency, calm environments, and clear communication with owners through updates and photos. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I have the flexibility and availability to give pets consistent attention throughout the day, including feeding times, walks or playtime, and companionship. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care to make sure their routines are respected and they never feel rushed or ignored. I’m reliable with timing and very mindful of each pet’s specific needs, whether that means regular check-ins, quiet time, or extra attention. This flexibility allows me to provide calm, attentive care on both weekdays and weekends. I create a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet, whether in my home or theirs. I follow all owner instructions for feeding, medication, and routines, and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs. I keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.

We cannot say enough good things about Troy! We adopted our baby a little over a year ago — this was the first time we left him alone and so were rather anxious about it. Troy came highly recommended by neighbors from our old building and we are thrilled we put our trust in him! He took amazing care of our big boy - it’s as if he was in summer camp! Troy is also amazing at everyday home repairs for things you didn’t realize needing fixing! Cashie is excited to see him again next month! We highly recommend Troy!

Natalia is a compassionate and attentive dog sitter who provided exceptional care for my 2-year-old Alaskan Klee Kai. My pup has separation anxiety which means it's hard to leave her at home alone. Natalia's warm and gentle nature put her at ease right away. I first booked a drop-in visit a few days prior to meet and greet before the longer stay. Natalia's thoughtful questions and attention to preparation details gave me confidence in her ability to provide top-notch care. From the moment we met I knew this is the sweetest person on earth. She's so caring and her engaging energy drew my pup right to her to feel safe and friends. During her 6+ hour stay the evening of my events, Natalia kept us updated with sweet photos and messages, and even took pup on a fun-filled walk and patiently extended her play sessions. It's clear Natalia is a true animal lover with a kind heart. I felt like I was leaving my fur-daughter with a friend, not a stranger. Highly recommend Natalia!

when it comes to Lulu's care, and Lauren exceeded every single one of them. She cared for my senior dog Lulu, who has significant needs due to advanced arthritis, and Lauren handled everything with such grace, patience, and attentiveness. She was incredibly gentle with Lulu, taking every precaution to keep her comfortable, and it was clear she truly understood and cared about Lulu's unique challenges. Lauren was also a joy to communicate with — responsive, responsible, and reassuring throughout. If you have a dog with special needs, look no further. Lauren is a gem, and Lulu and I are so grateful to have found her. Five stars, without hesitation!

FAQs for House Sitting - Fisher Island

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Fisher Island on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of June 2026, there are 3,950 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fisher Island. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Fisher Island walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Fisher Island maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

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 Fisher Island 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!

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.

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 .

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

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.

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

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
