“Ana was so sweet and kind to my puppy. She sent me multiple updates and pictures throughout the day and treated him with so much love. She followed my schedule with him to the T and I could tell he enjoyed being with her and her with him. My puppy came home tired and happy and we will be repeat customers!”
“Priscilla has become a calm in my storm! She is always communicative, and helps me to much with my pup that has generalized anxiety and SA. Thank you so much! We love having you- especially me so I can have a few dog free hours in my week! 5 stars!”
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 ❤️
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: Hello for starters I'm a guy who loves doing cardio which comes hand to hand with dog walking. I can go hours and hours without getting tired. I own a dog myself (shitzu mix). Im a punctual man as well as man who loves to hiking . I’m very attentive and alert of my surroundings. I’ve walked numerous dogs all different breeds and sizes . I can walk up to 3 dogs. When walking a dog I tend to avoid other dogs and walk at their pace . I make sure to give a ton of updates of the dog walk to the owner. Currently walk three shitzus (same owner) Monday-Friday .
“Anastasia took amazing care of Sully. It was clear how happy he was after his stay! Anastasia was extremely responsive to all of our messages, sent pictures, and clearly has a vast knowledge of dog breeds, behaviors and tendencies. Looking forward to having her watch Sully again next week, thanks Anastasia!”
“Liza and Laura are amazing. They were able to help me out on short notice. Both took great care of Mickey and gave him lots of love and attention. They are definitely on my repeat list.”
“I had the incredible pleasure of booking for the first time on Rover and blessed to find the best pair. I was anxious and needed a last minute sitter/day care for my new beloved pup who is 3 months old. They updated me and provided knowledge as a first time dog owner. They are so well-versed with dogs, that I learned a lot. Not only that, my pup came back so content and he whined after leaving them!! I mentioned Zia’s name, he looked around and cry whined. Jiraiya misses his best bud, Zia! See u guys soon! Jule and Den, you guys are the best!”
“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.”
“Sungmin is amazing with my pup, Louie! Not only was she super accommodating, but she also took great care of Louie by updating me with lots of cute photos. She’s very responsible and responsive, and she genuinely pays attention to your furbaby! I highly recommend Sungmin for your furbaby’s needs! Thanks so much again!”
“Nicholas responded so quickly to our late request even though he wasn’t home to take care of Ginny himself - his family stepped in and took such great care of Ginny like she was their own! Super nice people who I could tell are compassionate dog lovers. They were very patient and kind to Ginny even though it takes a minute for her to warm up to new people. And Ginny ended up being pooped out when we picked her up which is always a huge plus🤣Would definitely recommend!”

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 💕
Jisu & her husband are wonderful people. My pups felt safe & warmed up to them quickly. Jisu kept me updated and sent me pictures throughout the day. Never once did I doubt that my pups were in good hands and very well taken care of. I will definitely be requesting Jisu again🐾♥️🐾
Peggy and Anthony were terrific with our very active young cockapoo. Even though our dog stayed with them for the first time, it was as if she knew them all this time. Peggy and Anthony were also very responsive, warm, understanding and easy to talk to about the dog’s needs. We look forward to having them take care of our dog again in the future.
Kayla was wonderful to our Tonton. She offered meet & greet ahead of the stay and even knows how to deal with Tonton's anxiety. He warmed up to her pretty fast with her approach which rarely happens and she constantly sent us updates throughout Tonton's stay. We could tell from the videos and photos that Tonton enjoyed his time with Kayla. We are very satisfied and would book her again!

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.
