“Sally was great!! She was very responsible, sent timely updates, and went above and beyond to provide exceptional care for my cat. Will definitely recommend!”
“Also always, Andrea is amazing! She is helpful and perfect with my dog, who has some triggers! This time she stayed later because I was running late and it was much appreciated!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 17 and worked with all kinds of dogs, from small to large dogs. I am an avid walker and know my way around New York City, so me and your pet are sure to get our steps in a safe and easy way! I’m currently a college student but have large gaps between class. Thursdays and Wednesday until 4 are free and Saturday and Sundays if you need a break or are away you can count on me ! I am only a dog walker due to my apartment regulations, but I always try to get to know your pets and become someone you and your pet can trust
“Zoey was absolutely wonderful! She was punctual, reliable, and kept me updated throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. She followed everything I asked and took such great care of Louie. Most importantly, Louie absolutely loved her! 🐶❤️ I would definitely recommend Zoey and would happily have her watch Louie again!”
“Camille was amazing with Fury! They bonded instantly, and the frequent updates kept our minds at ease while we were away. The process was seamless and professional. We’ll definitely work with her again!”
“There are dog sitters who feed and walk your pup and there are those who truly love and care for your them in a way that is so memorable, you can see it in the way your pup loves them back. Shwetta is all of this and more. Not only does she give our dog some of his best weekends, but she is always very flexible with the humans and our unpredictable schedules. We highly appreciate and recommend her lovely services!”
“Garrett was so wonderful! My girl loved him immediately and I left knowing she was in incredible hands. Garrett was so responsive and asked such great questions to make sure all information was covered. I will definitely book again!”
“Andrea is incredibly attentive and always puts me at ease while I'm away! She sends adorable pictures of my kitty, sends updates every day and I can tell when I get home that she's been treated like a queen. So grateful to have someone I can trust looking after my home and my girl!”
“Chris is the best! Hands down one of the BEST pet sitters for my babies. I am SUPER picky and don't usually book the same sitters unless I truly like them. Chris communicates very well and sees to my pets needs. Follows the itinerary very well, sends pictures, updates, and knows how to handle each one of them.”
About: I have over 7 years of active, hands-on experience raising, training, and caring for dogs of all sizes, including large and powerful breeds like Rottweilers. Since 2018, I have been fully responsible for managing daily exercise routines, structured neighborhood walks, and feeding schedules.Beyond dogs, I am highly comfortable caring for cats, and other household animals. I am very attentive to animal body language, making sure your pets stay safe, comfortable, and appropriately active while you are away. Rain or snow, I stick strictly to your pet's schedule. Pet care fits smoothly into my weekly routine because I am an early bird who loves getting out of the house early to stay active. I prefer being highly proactive about my availability, meaning I only accept bookings on days when I am completely free and can dedicate my full attention to your pet. Whether you need structured early morning exercise routines, mid-day check-ins, or reliable evening walks, I communicate clearly and stick strictly to your pet's established schedule. When caring for pets in a client's home, safety is my absolute priority. I am highly attentive to animal body language and know how to maintain structural control when walking larger, powerful dogs on a leash. I strictly respect your household environment, adhere to your exact safety rules, and keep outdoor routines secure by avoiding any unpredictable interactions with strange dogs or crowded spaces.
“Lia was great, she took care of Asher for a couple of hours, she made sure that he was fed, given water, and taken outside. She kept me updated with pictures of him and took very good care of him. Thank you Lia!”
“Stephen always goes above and beyond. Always! We so appreciate the attention and care he gives to Una when we’re away. He sends the best pics and offers clear updates when needed. He’s the best!”
“Angela was a great houseguest and did an amazing job with our boy Oliver! She was kind and responsive and took care of all of Oliver's needs! Our place was clean and I can't say enough about what she did for us. She would be a great house and dog sitter for you if you ever need to go on a trip and need your pup looked after!”
About: I would love to house any pet (Cat/Dog) while you are away. I've had a cat growing up and know what's it like to love a little one and have to trust others to care for it. I would provide the best care needed for any furry friend, as well as the attention they require. I have been walking dogs for over a year now, but have cared for pets of family and friends. I love the strongest from Pitbulls to the smallest ones. I can exercise with your active dog or lounge around, we will have fun regardless! I like to go for runs and would love to bring a four-legged friend. I can provide care for the most energetic dogs or cats, or my total attention to a puppy that is still in training. Daily walks around the neighborhood, photo updates, baths and grooming also available. *I am open to caring for pets with medical or special needs/ any specific requests* I only work a part time job. I’m available to do morning walks and afternoon walks with your pup. I’m only away from my home for about 4 hours. I live in a house. I have extra caution by placing baby doors on my front entrance. I also place an airtag on them during their stay.
About: We are more than just a sitter, we are your pet’s official companion, dedicated to giving them love, attention, play, and well-being every day in a reliable way. My time is dedicated to caring for, accompanying, and playing with your puppies. I offer a flexible schedule to look after them and give them playtime whenever they need it. We provide attentive and personalized care for your pets in your home, ensuring their comfort, feeding, hygiene, play, affection, and safety, while adapting to their daily routines and needs.

So grateful for Charlee, who provided last-minute coverage for my cat, Bowie. She provided clear updates and photos throughout the trip, which put my mind at ease, and Bowie seemed happy and well cared for when I got home! She even brought in one of my packages and kept the apartment very clean. I’d absolutely book with her again. Thank you, Charlee!
Katie was the best sitter I could have ever asked for. Extremely attentive to my kitten, communicative while I was traveling and took incredible care of Rupert. She sent daily videos, photos and updates. I cannot express how amazing she was, very thankful to have found her!
Shweta was amazing!! She house sat for my dog for the weekend, and I came home to a spotless apartment and, most importantly, a very happy dog. She took him on plenty of walks, sent me lots of pictures and updates, and was super communicative the entire time I was away. She also helped take care of my turtles and made sure they were fed, which I really appreciated. It was clear she took great care of everyone and the apartment while I was gone. I would absolutely love to use shweta again!!!
I cannot say enough good things about Kamryn. She took excellent care of my kitties and I have many spoiled princesses and a prince. My house was immaculate when I returned home, my kitties were happy, she sent daily photos and was so responsive to their every need. I will absolutely book her services again and you would be very lucky to have her take care of your precious fur babies and/or house.
Charlie was fantastic. I needed a last minute pet sitter and am so glad I found him. He had great communication, fast response time, and my dog loved him and I was able to enjoy my trip knowing she was being well cared for. I've used Rover before and it has been an up and down experience due to people initially agreeing and then not responding or cancelling days later. I'm really happy to have found Charlie and can't tell you how much I appreciated his quick and reliable communication.
I had Jason watch my two cats while I was away for a few days and I am very happy with the service provided. I came back to everything the way I left it and all the cats things clean and organized. I had multiple follow ups and photos sent to me by Jason throughout the service. I would highly recommend and will definitely be booking with Jason moving forward!!
Cassidy is simply the BEST! This was the second time we used her. This time she stayed in our home, taking care of our two dogs for two weeks! She adores dogs, she’s responsible, sends updates, left the house spotless and best of all our dogs love her!! One of our dogs has anxiety, and she handles him perfectly. Cassidy should be everyone’s go to girl ❤️
Daniela was great, very reliable and updated me regularly with the pups' pics. She took great care of them and had previously taken note of all relevant details at our meet and greet. Also, the house was spotless when we came back. Would totally recomend Daniela to take care of your pups and your home!
Catherine was great!! She stayed over Thanksgiving break to watch our cats and they had a great time with her. She also went above and beyond to clean our apartment before we came back. We came home to relaxed, happy cats and a clean home, which makes traveling much less stressful. Would highly recommend her to watch anyone’s pets!

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 Flushing 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 Flushing 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Flushing 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
