“Gwen is wonderful! She is very thorough, attentive and kind with my two shepherds. She communicates and is very reliable with bookings, which is much appreciated. I was initially nervous finding someone for drop-in visits, but I found the right person.”
“Sara is wonderful! We have 3 dogs and 2 of them are puppies. Sara came over for a meet and greet with the girls and they bonded with her right away. She was so sweet to them and got right on the ground to have them check her out and let them know she was there for them. Sara comes daily and her willingness to be flexible if we need additional visits is above and beyond. We highly recommend Sara and would have no problem with her taking care of our dogs while we are out of town as well. Very trustworthy. Thanks Sara for coming into our lives and taking care of our fur babies!”

I am semi-retired and have a flexible schedule, having the ability to work around your pet's weekday and/or weekend schedule. I can simply drop in for feedings, or stay and play. I have experience administering medicine as well. I provide care in your home so your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine.

I keep your home secure during each visit and always ensure doors, gates, and entry points are safely closed. My goal is to give you peace of mind and your pet a calm, safe experience while you’re away.

“Chris has come to walk our dog several times now and we love working with him! Our dog loves him! He is easy to communicate with and always leaves a detailed summary. Thanks Chris!”
“Brianna took amazing care of my 3 kitties. They absolutely loved her. Her communication was excellent and my cats barely noticed I was even gone. She did the cutest arts and crafts projects with them, brushed them, took out the trash and left my place spotless (other than the amazing arts and crafts I came home to.) All of my instructions were followed perfectly, she never left any trash behind, and brought so many treats and toys for the kitties! She came to meet the kitties ahead of time and bonded with them so fast. I would trust Brianna with my cats in a heartbeat and I don’t even trust my parents with them.”
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life, I grew up with them in the house for as long as I can remember and have cared for a wide variety of breeds over the years. I’ve naturally become the go-to pet sitter for friends and family because I’m reliable, responsible, and truly enjoy making sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and cared for. I currently have three dogs of my own: a German Shorthaired Pointer mix, a Sheepadoodle, and a Basset Hound puppy. Caring for them has given me hands-on experience with different breeds, personalities, energy levels, and training needs. I’ve worked on puppy training, on- and off-leash training, basic obedience, and even fun activities like frisbee work. I believe dogs are family, and I treat every pet I care for with that same level of love, patience, and attention. I take pride in being dependable and keeping owners updated so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and included while they’re in my care. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care. I am a teacher and only work very part-time hours during the summer, Monday–Thursday, so I have plenty of time before and after work for feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. My schedule allows me to be home often and provide consistent care, attention, and supervision throughout the week. I provide pet care with safety, trust, and comfort as my top priorities. During in-home visits, I follow each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication needs (if applicable), exercise, and any special preferences. I make sure pets have a safe, calm environment while providing attention, playtime, and companionship. For walks, I focus on keeping pets secure with proper leash handling, being aware of the surroundings, and adjusting the pace and activity level to each pet’s needs. I treat every home and pet with respect, communicate updates with owners, and make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while they are in my care.
“Sam is an amazing pet sitter! One of my two cats is shy but started warming up to Sam in just one visit. Sam played with them, took time to learn their little quirks and gave them individual attention. I got pictures and updates after every visit. I will certainly hire her again and again. Thank you, Sam!”
About: I'm a lifelong dog lover who cherishes the unconditional love and companionship these furry friends bring into our lives. I have the pleasure of sharing my home with two wonderful canine companions, a Beagle and a Labmix. Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly routine. With my two dogs living in my secure, fenced home, I have the privilege of being with them around the clock. This allows me to provide constant care, engage in training sessions, and enjoy regular walks with my beloved furry companions. My approach to caring for pets, whether in my own home or at a client's residence, is tailored to their specific needs. At my place, I have a secure backyard along with a walk-out full basement, offering a safe and comfortable environment. I delight in taking dogs for leisurely walks, tending to their daily needs, and providing dedicated training when required. With two dogs of my own, my home is well-prepared to welcome and accommodate furry guests
“It was our first time using Rover and we were a little skeptical of the app, however, Hope was AMAZING. We hardly ever go on vacation, so leaving our cats and bird alone stressed us out. Hope was a perfect fit for us and we were able to have a stress free trip! At the meet and greet she was professional, sweet, and attentive. She asked a lot of questions to get to know us and to figure out our pets' needs. She updated us everyday with pictures and funny stories about our pets. She's hilarious and we can tell she enjoyed her time with our babies. The moment we came home from our trip we could tell our pets were well taken care of and loved. She's a true animal lover! We would without any hesitation rebook with Hope and highly recommend her!! Thank you Hope!!”

Ayla was a great sitter for my dog and senior cat for a long weekend. She came for an interview before the booking where she was pleasant to talk to and my dog warmed up to her a bit. During the booking, she took great care of our babies. Her communication was excellent. Will definitely book again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Lindenhurst on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 3,465 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lindenhurst. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lindenhurst 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.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lindenhurst. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
