“Staci took excellent care of my 19-year-old cat who has CKD and special needs. I left an extensive sheet of instructions for her and she followed them all. She is always on time. Wonderful communication with cute photos. She's a great photographer! I would highly recommend any pet owner to any pet owner. You can trust her to give your pet the best care! I will be a repeat customer.”


About: I've been around pets all my life and developed a strong understanding of animal care from a young age. As an adult, I’ve gained hands-on experience with a range of pet personalities, from energetic working dogs and playful kittens, to nervous rescues with behavioral challenges. I helped socialize two shy, unhappy adult cats, one of whom took over a year to build trust. I’ve cared for Sonny, a reactive corgi mix, supporting his training, managing reactivity on walks, and recognizing stress signals. I’ve also bonded with Zelda, an anxious German Shepherd mix, helping her feel safe through patience and consistent care. I’ve managed feeding, walks, training, and emotional support for each pet with empathy and respect for their unique needs. I am a freelancer, so I work remotely and make my own schedule. This gives me a lot of flexibility for in-home visits and dog walks. I always carefully follow the instructions given by the pet parent. For working dog breeds, I make sure to give them long walks and plenty of play time. For more apprehensive animals, I will be mindful about making loud noises or sudden movement and give them time to warm up to me. I always adapt to the pets’ needs and send plenty of photo updates to the parents along the way.
“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.”

“Kayla did daily checks in for my three cats while I was away and everything went perfectly. We met up a few days before, and she sent me updates each day with pictures. She’s an excellent communicator! I look forward to working with her again. Thanks Kayla!”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and love them all big to small. I’m a dog owner myself, I have a 14-year-old Boston Terrier and a 2-year-old Golden Retriever. So I’m very used to both senior dogs and high energy pups. I really understand how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pet. I’m very consistent, always show up, and treat every pet like my own. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, fresh food/water, or some playtime and attention, I’ll make sure they’re happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away. If you’re looking for someone local, trustworthy, and consistent, I’d love to help! I’m available for late morning visits and afternoon drop-ins during the week, with more limited availability on weekends. I focus on a small number of consistent clients to provide reliable care. I work part-time at a school so once summer hits, I will have more hours. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for during every visit.
“Kelly is amazing! She was very quick to respond and was able to help us out when our usual sitter cancelled last minute. She took great care of our puppy and provided lots of updates!”

“My puppies were happy and content when I arrived home while Bridget let them out in my backyard. Even with my smaller, younger puppy being a bit cautious and protective, everything seemed to go EXACTLY as planned! Kudos and thank you! Would highly recommend!”


“Stephanie did a great job. I have had some bad dog sitters in the past and she was just the opposite. She sent updates and photos everyday and made sure the dogs got attention while I was gone. Highest recommendations!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Steff. She has cared for my cat on multiple occasions — not just this trip, but also the time before — and she has consistently gone above and beyond. She’s professional, clear in her communication, and always gives me complete peace of mind when I’m away. I know my cat is safe, happy, and well cared for in her hands. I will absolutely continue to use her in the future (if she’ll have us!) and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter. ❤️”


“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: My dog is the most important thing to me. Therefore I know what it’s like to worry about whether my fur baby is in good hands. I will treat your baby just as I treat mine and will try to make their time away from you less stressful for both of you. You can be assured that they will be in good hands. Whether it’s for a walk or to take care of them for a couple days. I understand that all pets are different and they all have different needs. I will try to know as much as possible to provide the best service to you and your pet. I have a lot of personal experience with dogs in my own personal life and would love to share that experience with all :)
About: I have been an animal lover ever since I was a child! I have raised puppies, cared for senior cats and dogs, administered medicines, owned many small animals (rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and gerbils) and even raised a puppy for the Guide Dog Foundation. I love all animals and will feed any stray that comes to my door as well! I will care for and treat your pets as if they were my own. I work from home so I am available to take care of your babies while you are at work, out of the house or away on vacation I have a large fenced in yard, I love to go on walks and am responsible and respectful when in other peoples homes. I will care for your animals with as much love and care as you would. I will follow your pets routine and care for them as my own.
“I booked Lindsay back to back weeks for drop-in visits. Lindsay was so great with all 3 of our dogs. They were so happy to see her. She was on time, walked, fed and played with them and sent the best pictures. I highly recommend Lindsay and will be using her again.”


About: I am a very caring and compassionate individual who has always loved and felt very comfortable around dogs my entire life. The dogs I have interacted with (either my personal dogs or those that I have cared for) all feed off that energy and enjoy being around someone who they know will genuinely love and care for them. I am also very active & also believe activity is vital for dogs to stay healthy, so I love going on walks and playing with dogs in ways that get them running and exercising. I am not classically trained in dog skills but I have successfully helped potty train both my black lab and dogs that I have cared for in the past. I also have walked two dogs at the same time multiple times without any issues. As far as my availability is concerned, I am a law student, so my availability is heavily based on my school schedule. But feel free to contact me & I would love to work something out with you!
About: Since I was 4 years old we had dogs at home, a boxer mix and a poodle. Later on when I was 15 my mom got a pug, and then another one while my sister got a big pit mix with special needs. And 7 years ago I adopted a dog of my own, a 60lb hound mix, who's the light of my day. I've walked all the dogs in my family, and taken care of them when needed. With my own dog, I do everything for him, from baths, playtime, walks, roadtrips, cuddle and I love him, his medical care is up to date and I always make sure he's happy and healthy. I've also watched over friends dogs and cats, and follow all the rules I've been given, every dog ans cat is different and unique and deserves the same respect and care. I am available weekdays after 5:30pm (except for Tuesdays) Weekends I'm usually available, I can be flexible with my plans. I do update my schedule regularly. I cannot dog sit in my home. But I will love to walk your dog(s) in your neighborhood, take them on a hike, take them on drives, as well as staying over for a few hours. I'll follow your rules with no problem and I'll give my outmust attention, respect and love to your dog(s). Meet and greets would be preferable. As well as letting me know of any health or behavioral concerns your dog(s) might have so I can give individualized care.

I have over 20 years of experience caring for animals and have been passionate about their well-being since childhood. Caring for animals isn't just my profession—it's truly part of who I am. Throughout my life, I have cared for a wide variety of animals, providing feeding, grooming, bathing, exercise, companionship, and lots of love. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive individualized attention, compassion, and exceptional care while you're away. I understand that every pet is unique. Before each booking, I take the time to learn your pet's routines, preferences, health needs, and any specific instructions you may have. Building trust with both pets and their owners is extremely important to me. I respect that welcoming someone new into their home can be stressful for some animals, so I work patiently to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet enjoys belly rubs, ear scratches, playtime, or simply quiet companionship, they will always receive my undivided attention and care. I believe caring for animals is one of the greatest acts of service we can give to the world, and I would be honored to care for your furry family members. For more information about me and my work with animals, please visit my Facebook page: Natalie Marie and send me a friend request or message. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐾❤️ I enjoy the outdoors, so if your dog needs some activity i can provide that. Otherwise, I’m happy to take it on long walks, play outside, or give it some loving belly rubs/ear scratches/pets! After the ground rules are laid out, I like to get to know the pet and let the pet get to know me. A stranger coming into its domain can be a lot for some pets, and I respect that. Therefore, I want to make sure the pet (and owner) know I’m a friend and can be trusted.

This was our first time using Rover, and we’re so glad we found Katherine. We really appreciated all of the timely updates and, most importantly, knowing that Dakota was happy and well cared for while we were away. It was clear that he had a great time with Katherine, and he is already looking forward to his next stay with her. 🐾❤️

I couldn’t be happier with the care Summer received! From the very first moment they met, Summer felt comfortable, happy, and excited to be with her. They had such a wonderful connection right away, which gave me so much peace of mind. Throughout the entire week, Summer was incredibly well cared for. She had plenty of playtime, received lots of love, attention, and affection, and I could tell she felt safe and happy the whole time. It was clear that she was treated like part of the family, not just as a pet. I truly appreciated the updates, the patience, and the genuine care she showed. Knowing that Summer was in such loving hands made all the difference. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, kind, and compassionate to care for their furry family member. Thank you for taking such amazing care of my sweet Summer!

my goodness I cannot recommend Taylor enough. She was amazing with pup and just so sweet! She kept me updated during each visit with texts and photos, which was such a relief. Not only was she fantastic with caring for my dog (who is large and can be hard to handle) but she even brought him special turkey treats for thanksgiving 🥹 Having someone who I can actually trust to watch my dog is so important to me and i can absolutely trust taylor. She really treated my dog like he was her own baby, I can’t recommend her enough!!!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Hauppauge 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 Hauppauge 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 .

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

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.
