“Ana was incredibly sweet with our Boston Terrier puppy who experienced his first time away from us with her. She sent lots of pictures and gave frequent updates. Highly recommended!”
About: It started as just me on Rover, my sister Melissa has joined me and that's why we share a profile . I am a 33 year old pastry chef who is currently working full time but with a rather flexible schedule and certain nights available for overnight dog sitting. My sister Melissa works from home, she has her own online store on Etsy, k9felinePeru (check it out!) So she will be providing most of the services we offer for your pets since she is home mostly all day, everyday and she is also a dog lover like me. I lost my beautiful pitbull mix, Sedgwick and then Dollar both to cancer 8 years ago and 1 month ago, respectively. I used to cook for Sedg and Dollar, healthy and organic in addition to their daily vitamins and minerals. Furthermore, I have experience with dog medication/ sick dogs/ special needs since I went through it with my own dogs. Seg had to take pain killers, steroids and a series of other pills that helped prolong his life and us spend more time together. Dollar had food allergies in addition to environmental ones like pollen and the like so we were very careful with his diet and the cleaning products we use in our household. We just lost him to prostate cancer which he battled for 2 years. We are a sisters team providing the best service for you and your pets in the area. We both love taking long walks in the park, massage bellies and scratch the right spot :) Just some additional info: We welcome potential clients into our home for a visit before you hire us, for your peace of mind, we understand that your fur child is just as important as any other member of your family, that's how we felt about our dogs anyway :)) Ask us about making an appointment to meet us. Melissa has experience with senior dogs taking care of a blind goldendoodle until he turned 16 1/2 and became unable to move. Daily she provided pills for his arthritis, vitamins, put his boots on since his mobility started declining and made his food. Why we love dog sitting Our whole lives as a children my parents never let me and my sister have one, my dad has always been afraid of them. But that didn't stop us, we found ways to have pets at home, we started with hamsters and as adults we finally got dogs in our lives. Melissa is self-employed. She makes her own schedule and has the freedom to choose and change everything everyday in her schedule with ease without problems. Here at home we live to cuddle. Pets are allowed on the bed and sofa. We can go on long walks if needed. Everything is done on time if they have a strict regiment for whatever reason like behavior training or ailments. For cats we love playing with them but understand they are more independent and try to learn their patterns to let them be as free as possible or if they are playful even better for us ❤️
“Jennifer was great with our puppy, Sky! We needed a dog sitter while we went out for the evening and she sent us photos and videos throughout the night. She had great communication and kept us informed throughout the stay. She created a comfortable environment for him, which put us at ease as well.”
“This was Bedie's third time with Shirley and like the last two times, she was well cared for and came back happy. Shirley is very attentive to Bedie's behavior and needs and I appreciate her detailed reports and insights.”
About: I provide personalized, attentive care tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether it’s energetic walks, senior pet care, or basic training for puppies, I ensure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved. My patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals set me apart, giving pet owners peace of mind while their furry friends are in my care. I’m free most of the time, I work from home but I walk my dog frequently so he can go outside to do his necessities I live in an apartment and have lots of toys. My dog, Milo has countless toys but he prefers the squeaky balls. I take him to the park when it’s not too cold out.
“Roki had a great time with Antonio! I was traveling and Roki was staying with my friend - and it’s amazing that I could find a great care in a new neighborhood on a short notice.”
“Exceptional service! Bruno stayed with her for several hours, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. She was kind, professional, responsible, and very attentive to his needs. It gave me great peace of mind knowing that Bruno was in such caring and capable hands. I could tell that Bruno was well cared for and treated with love. I would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you for the amazing service.”
“Luzia & Laura are wonderful sitters. Our 1 year old maltese Yogurt spent a great time with them. They always send pictures and updates of our dog and they care about him too. We will definately choose them to be our sitter next time we visit New York. Thank you Luzia and Laura!”
About: Hi! I am Annie! I grow up with my home full of animals, I love taking care of my dogs and cats! I’m good at caring for cats and dogs of different personalities and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs, so I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication instructions, and any special care they require. I’m also very attentive to changes in a pet’s behavior and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. My schedule is fairly flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m especially flexible during weekdays and can usually accommodate different schedules with advance notice. I treat every pet with the same care and attention I would give my own. In my client’s home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, litter box care, walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I’m respectful of your home and always make sure everything is clean and secure before I leave. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Jule did an outstanding job puppy-sitting for me. She kept me updated, made sure my puppy was comfortable and happy, and treated them like her own. I came home to a relaxed and well-cared-for pup. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in her hands.”
“Maria was able to take care of my pup last minute which is what I needed. I will always use her services due to the seamless process and pick up/drop off.”
“Sonia took great care of my dog and made sure she had everything she needed! She also sent several pictures and videos during her stay which was amazing!”
About: Hi there! I’m Sarah. I’m here to make your pet feel at ease, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, treating them with complete respect for your wants and wishes. I live with only my husband and son (born Feb. 2025) - we do not have pets of our own, due to our traveling! I’m on extended leave, so your pup will have *all* of the attention! To ensure that attention, I only dogsit for one family at a time. My home is a second floor apartment, with a private, fenced-in balcony, close to numerous parks for our longer walks. I grew up on a farm upstate, always taking care of dogs, and I’ve dogsat for over two decades. For the past 8 years, I’ve also volunteered at, and fostered dogs through, the SPCA. I joined Rover after moving to Queens to continue my dogsitting. :) I’m very reliable and keep to scheduled meals, medical needs and exercise. Oh! And let's not forget plenty of cuddling. I love taking pictures and updating families on what their fur babes are up to! I love dogs of all sizes, ages, breeds, and temperaments! ******* Important note: My landlord's one restriction is that each dog must be under 60 lbs. ******* I look forward to meeting you soon! Being home during the day allows me to fully adapt to your pet's schedule - we will stick to all feeding, walking, medication, exercise/playing, and any other schedules that your pet usually follows! (Although we may have even more 'playing' time!) I have a very spacious, two-bedroom apartment, with no other pets--just a husband and son (born Feb. 2025)--to ensure your pet's absolute safety. We also have a grassy, fenced-in balcony that no other apartment has access to!
About: I have had pets since you were little so I have always had this initiative to be able to take care of them, love them and understand them. However, I worked as a groomer in a small store so I have been able to acquire more knowledge about their care and how important it is to keep them healthy, clean and healthy. Currently I stay at home, so I have the will to take care of and be able to have pets during the week and also be able to go for a walk and give them what they need, I am also a photographer and I can take beautiful photos of your pet Currently in my house I have 2 cats that are perfectly adaptable, so I can get another pet and have it temporarily with me and give it all the love it needs
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for many years - from day long stays to multi-week housing. I worked at the Michigan humane society and have experience with all breeds of dogs/cats. Overall I’ve always loved animals but dogs hold a special place in my heart. I am a strategic financial associate at Uber but have a hybrid work schedule - I am available for walking, house visits and boarding Friday through Monday. I live in a dog friendly building in a large two bedroom unit with plenty of space for a dog. No current dogs at the residence.
“Ashley is absolutely amazing! She went the extra mile to ensure Kiwi felt comfortable and loved while I was away. The regular updates she sent me were so thoughtful. It's clear that she truly cares about the dogs in her care, and I appreciate the extra attention she gives to make sure they're happy and healthy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter. Kiwi likes her a lot!”

Ended up doing a back-to-back appointments across two consecutive days with Jisu and she made the process such a breeze! I could tell Kongie was doing great from all the updates sent throughout the day and it was evident that she was relaxed and feeling settled in. Thank you for everything and hope to cross paths again🥰🙏
Paula was amazing with Kirby! 🥰 She was so sweet, caring, and very accommodating with everything we needed. I felt completely comfortable leaving Kirby with her, and I could tell Kirby was happy and well taken care of. I really appreciate how kind and attentive Paula was. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pup! 🐶💕
Keysis has been amazing with Estrella! She watched her Monday through Thursday for the past four months, from when she was just 2 months old puppy until now at 6 months. It truly became Estrella's second home. She would get so excited every morning to see Keysis, which says everything about the love and care she received. Keysis is so kind, reliable, and treats every dog like family. I'm so grateful for everything she's done for Estrella! We are going to miss her 💕

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Jackson Heights commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NY ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 .
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.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 11,390 sitters in Jackson Heights, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
