“I cannot recommend Lisa enough! This our third time with Lisa and from the very beginning, communication has been always clear, prompt, and reassuring. She took amazing care of our cats, making sure they were well-fed, entertained, and loved while we were away. I received regular updates with photos and little notes that gave me peace of mind. One of our cats has medical issue and she made sure he was getting his medication daily and trying her best for him to take it, since he is very shy, we are very happy that he warmed up so quickly—it was clear he felt safe and comfortable. We came home to two happy, relaxed cats and a spotless home. Truly above and beyond—I’ll definitely be booking again.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 25 years and currently have two wonderful Goldendoodles, mom and daughter. Dogs staying with me become part of the household, with plenty of attention, affection, playtime and room to run in our fenced yard. I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors and high-energy dogs, as well as administering oral and injectable medication. I’m also experienced with training and love keeping dogs active, happy and mentally stimulated. I work on my own schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to spend time with the dogs in my care. They get frequent attention, playtime, outdoor breaks and walks depending on their usual routine and energy level. I have a fenced yard and two friendly Goldendoodles, so visiting dogs have plenty of space and great company. Dogs are part of the household and I’m happy to follow their usual routine, including crate training if that’s what they’re used to. I also have a playpen available for puppies or smaller dogs when needed. Your dog’s safety, comfort and happiness always come first.

About: While I’m new to Rover, I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have lived with and cared for plenty. Caring for them taught me the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, and paying attention to a dog’s individual needs and personality. What sets me apart is that I’ll treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m dependable, active, and genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors, so whether your dog prefers a leisurely stroll or a more energetic walk, I’ll make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m excited to build lasting relationships with both pets and their owners by being reliable, communicative, and providing safe, loving care every time. I am flexible and available through out the day Mondays Fridays and Weekends as well as most week nights. Can always move things around if need be. I live in a large house in Long Beach New York, with plenty of room inside, as well as the beach to accommodate any dog.

About: I’ve had dogs of my own my entire life and have always loved and taken care of them. I have helped out my family, friends, and neighbors with their pets whenever they need! My most recent dog passed away about a year and a half ago, which makes it hard to get another dog because of the heartbreak, but I have helped take care of others pets as they have needed! I just graduated college, so I have this summer off and will have plenty of time to care and take care of dogs and pups! I am available full time from Sunday-Thursday. I have a fenced yard and a pen for the pups to use the bathroom in. I have an extra crate and toys for the pups to use and play with!

About: I have 20+ years of caring for animals of all types. My own dog was unfortunately allergic to grass and almost every type of food. He needed to receive weekly injections in the nape of his neck which I would administer as well as following his prescription protocols to the tee. As the general manager of several different Petcos and PetSmart's, I have amassed quite a bit of knowledge about many animals, especially dogs. I am a nutrition specialist, have experience in grooming, am knowledgeable of natural and medicinal ways to calm hyperactivity, and have extensive experience in many different types of training from proper walking, issuing commands, house breaking, interacting with other dogs, and multiple other aspects of whatever is necessary. If I cannot answer your questions, the trustworthy contacts I have amassed throughout my tenure at these establishments would be more than happy to help with their vast wealth of information. I have also had the unpleasant experience of helping dogs who are experiencing life threatening health complications and know what I am capable of, an also when it is time to seek medical attention. All credentials aside, I truly do love and appreciate animals of all kinds and can't wait to meet yours! I currently work part time and my job is a 2 minute drive from my house so your animal will never be left alone for more than an hour or less. I have a fenced in yard with trees on all sides. I live across the street from an elementary school with a massive fenced in field which is where I like to walk and play fetch and other games with dogs. I have been given carte blanche by the workers there as I have lived here for so many years so I can come and go as I please without any interference.

About: I worked at a veterinary clinic for over 5 years. I love all animals no matter the age, gender or size. I look forward to playing and spending time with your pet and giving them all the love I have to offer, I would prefer all dogs to be vaccinated, have proper identification and preferably be neutered. Any unusual requests require a fee which can range anywhere from ten to fifteen dollars. I will walk,play, and feed your pet however you will have to supply the bed, food, toys , and any other items required to occupy and/or keep your pet entertained, happy and comfortable. I look forward to meeting your special one and welcoming them into the family. There is special discounts for bonded or multiples. I offer specials for clients that are recommended or new. Please contact me for more info. Why I love dog sitting: It is a great way to bond with a creature that has endless love and compassion. My experience administering medication: No medication of any kind. I work from home full time so I have plenty of time to devote to your pet. I have the freedom to walk away and give your pet attention and any other necessities they may need. I follow all requests and am able to separate pets if necessary. I have a crate available if needed. I watch your pet with a keen eye and able to offer comfort and love. If multiple pets are in house, I will monitor at all times.

Marissa is an absolute excellent choice for petsitting. I highly recommend her. She is patient, knowledgeable, and helpful. I had never left my cats alone before and after my experience with her, I felt relieved and reassured everything was going just fine. My cat needs special meal attention and she was able to accommodate him beautifully. She gave me detailed information on what was going on as well as pictures and videos. I will 100% use her in the future! She was amazing!

Alex was wonderful. I can’t recommend him enough! He took amazing care of my dog while we were away and treated her like she was his own. She can be stubborn on walks, but he was incredibly patient and somehow got her walking calmly and politely on a leash. It was obvious he genuinely cared about her and took the time to work with her instead of just watching her. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and I couldn’t be more grateful. I’ll definitely be using him again and would recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, knowledgeable, and great with dogs.

Stephanie took great care of my two cats, Oreo and Nala, while I was away. She followed all of my instructions and made sure their routines were kept consistent, which I really appreciated. Oreo is a social butterfly and enjoyed her company right away. What impressed me most was seeing my shy girl Nala slowly come out of her shell. By the last couple of visits she was rubbing against Stephanie and even allowing pets, which is a big deal for her. That alone speaks volumes to me. Stephanie also shared photos during the visits and kept things running smoothly while I was gone. I’m grateful that I was able to relax on my trip knowing my cats were being looked after, and came home to two happy kitties. Thank you again, Stephanie! 🐱

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Harbor Isle

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 .

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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
