About: As a trained ecologist and experienced animal caretaker, I bring professional-level attention and compassion to every pet I work with. My background includes hands-on care for mammals, reptiles, and marine animals, giving me a strong understanding of animal behavior and health. I spend much of my free time hiking and exploring the outdoors, so I’m especially attentive to active dogs who thrive on long walks and enrichment. I’m also a dedicated reptile owner, comfortable with specialized husbandry needs and detailed care routines. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, scaled, or furry, I provide patient, reliable care tailored to their individual personality. My field of work is seasonal. I am currently available full-time. During my work season, I typically work full-time and limit my services better accommodate my schedule. I will carefully follow any instructions left by their owner. As an owner of a pit bull with separation anxiety, I understand the stress some pets feel when their owners are away for extended periods of time, so I will do my best to follow any instructions left by owners to ensure their pets adhere to their daily schedule. I also STRONGLY believe in keeping dogs leashed at all times while on a walk.
“This was our first time using Rover and Jessica was wonderful! She was very responsive, flexible and prompt for the visit times we requested. She was great with our cat and we very much appreciate the attentiveness and care she provided while we were away!”
“Ava was incredible with our boys! She communicated with us the whole time, played with our cats a lot, and made sure to send plenty of updates while we were away. We felt very comfortable having her watch our cats for a few days, and they definitely appreciated having her spend time with them!”
“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!”
“Heather is amazing. This is the second time we have used her services and this time to dog sit as well as cat sit. Our dogs can take a second to warm up to people but she did a great job! The communication is always quick and I would continue to trust her to look after our animals!”
About: I have a B.S. in animal science with the goal of going to veterinary school. I have experience as a vet assistant in a small animal hospital, as well as a variety of animal experiences. I was a part of a college club training future guiding eyes for the blind dogs, where I also became a certified sitter for Guiding Eyes for the blind. I owned and cared for a Shih Tzu for 15 years and have watched friends' and family's dogs. I'm currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to walk and play with your dogs! I'm available all day on weekends and on Wednesdays. I am currently available on Tuesdays and Thursdays after 11:30 am. Your pet will be well supervised with plenty of affection. I have a bachelor's degree in animal science and experience as a veterinary assistant, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with different needs, personalities, and medical routines.
“Rhiannon did a great job caring for my cat while I was out of town. She was very communicative and kept me up-to-date on how he was doing every day. I really appreciate her attention to detail and the thought she put into the daily Rover card.”
About: I’ve always had a natural love for animals. I grew up with cats and even spent time caring for stray cats as a child. Loving and caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I currently have a dog and kitten of my own, and I’ve been pet sitting for family and friends for years. I also teach puppy yoga classes and have been doing so for a little over a year, which has given me even more experience understanding different dog breeds, personalities, energy levels, and needs. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet and making them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I treat every animal as an individual and care for them the way I’d want someone to care for my own. Pets are family, and should be considered and treated as such. My background and approach in customer service, hospitality, and teaching wellness & mindfulness for over 8 years, translates to my ability, patience and capacity to nurture animals with this energy and intention too. I currently work part-time, so I have flexibility in my schedule and availability. I regularly care for my own dog and kitten at home. My yard is fenced with plenty of outdoor space. Depending on the clients home, I will follow their protocol in how they have their pets in the house and outdoors.
“Allison was wonderful and Milo was happy and obviously well taken care of while we were away. Allison also shared lots of photos during each visit which is much appreciated! Thank you again for accommodating us and Milo at the last minute so that we could enjoy a fun weekend away!”

Pet care is my full-time job, so it’s a big part of my daily and weekly routine.

About: I work at a doggy daycare. At this job I supervise groups of dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes. I’m experienced with feeding, administering medication, and basic grooming like baths and nail trims. Working at this job has taught me a lot about dog behavior and body language. I am also pet CPR and first aid certified with America Health Training. I am an owner of a 2 year old rescue dog myself. I am used to all different types of personalities and temperaments and ready to take on whatever it is your dog may need! I am working part time at a doggy daycare facility. I am normally available in the early morning until 12pm and from 8:30pm to late night. Tuesdays and Fridays I am free the entire day for any bookings so long as I know at least a day in advance! Because of my work obligations as well as obligations to my own pets I am only offering dog walking sessions as well as home check ins for cats and dogs. I am used to any kind of harness or collars for dogs, experienced with using crates and am comfortable taking them out wherever is comfortable with you. For both cats and dogs I can come in for house check ins, help with feedings, play with your pets, or just come in for a snuggle so they don’t get lonely.

“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!”
“Christina was an exceptional stand in as a best friend to our large nine year old dog! She was attentive, communicative, thoughtful and engaged for the multiple days we were away. She shared photos and videos regularly and adhered perfectly to the “older dog” instructional needs. Extremely caring and a true dog person.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Huntington Station
Jennifer was absolutely amazing! We had her stay with our dog Teddy at our wedding venue on our wedding day, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She was so flexible, understanding, and accommodating with our chaotic wedding schedule. She took such great care of Teddy, took him on walks, and even helped us get some special pictures with him on our big day. She was incredibly sweet, reliable, respectful, and caring. We felt completely comfortable knowing Teddy was in her hands, and we’re so grateful she was part of our special day. We highly recommend Jennifer!
Greg took incredible care of my pets! He was attentive and treated them like family. I received regular updates, and it was clear my pets felt safe, happy, and well taken care of. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter, highly recommend and will definitely book again!”

Before booking, confirm:

- 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.
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 Huntington Station choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code.

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.

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 .
