“Alex was great! He was on time and took care of everything with no issues! He also took tons of great pictures and checked in as well. Will definitely be using him more in the future!”
“Michelle was awesome!!!! She dropped in on my cat when I went away. She was reliable, communicative, and even brought my mail and packages in for me! My sweet guy gets so sick in the car so I hate to try and board him but I was so worried about leaving him alone. Michelle eased my fears and relieved my worries. I highly recommend Michelle and I’d definitely ask her to sit for me again.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life! I have also dog sat for family and neighbors since I was 15. I start nursing school in September and am looking to make extra money over the summer! I’m very muture and responsible, I also have my own car and am very flexible with hours. I work part time so I am super flexible with when I can spend time with your dogs! I’m available a majority of the time weekdays and weekends. I have an 100lb great pyrenees who is an escape artist, so I am used to keeping a close eye on any animals and take the safety of the dog very serious. I also have experience with crating dogs and can do that if necessary for your pup.
About: Hi! I'm Lauren :) As a school teacher, responsibility, patience, and safety are naturally built into everything I do, so you can rest assured your pup is in highly capable hands with me. I recently lost my beloved dog and absolute best friend, Charlie, and pet sitting has become my favorite way to channel all that leftover love into spoiling, pampering, and protecting other people's furry family members. I am a new homeowner, which means your dog will get to enjoy a spacious, fully fenced-in backyard that is perfect for safe outdoor playtime, fetch, and afternoon zoomies. Since I am on summer break, my schedule is completely wide open for boarding, housesitting, or check-ins and drop-ins to let your pup out. I know how tough it is to be away from your pets, so I make it a priority to send picture updates throughout the day so you always have total peace of mind. Whether your dog needs a high-energy or calm play space, I cannot wait to welcome them into my new home! I am a teacher, which means I am available all summer long. If your pet needs care in the mornings, evenings, or nights, whatever your schedule needs, I am there! I have a house with a spacious, fenced-in yard. I do not have other pets, so I would love to share my yard with some furry friends. Your pet will be my main focus, receiving lots of love and attention!

“Jennifer did a great job caring for my cat Loni and I would not hesitate to engage her again. She was very understanding of my cat’s temperament and treated her with care and consideration. She even visited during a horrible snowstorm to make sure Loni was taken care of!”
About: I have cared for the furry friends of my family members, friends, and neighbors. Since I was very young, I had always had a passion and love for animals. I grew up with Rottweiler's in my home that were my best friends. In 2020, I adopted my first kitten that was orphaned by her mom at just 4 weeks old, from an overcrowded shelter. Since then, I have began pet sitting my neighbors 7 cats, as well as raise (2) new Rottweiler puppies, and take care of elderly pets who take medications na have medical issues. I work from home with a very flexible schedule that can be adapted to most schedules and needs. I love to walk and would be happy to go on very long walks with all pups!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. I’ve done dog sitting and dog walking for different breeds and personalities, and I’m comfortable keeping up with routines, giving extra patience and care when needed, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m a teacher, so I have more flexibility in the summer when I’m off. I’m very active and enjoy staying busy by being outdoors—going for walks, spending time at the beach, and staying on the move. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely love animals, and spending time with them is something I enjoy as a hobby. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after while sticking closely to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while also respecting their space and the home. My goal is always to keep pets happy and stress-free while their owners are away.
About: A deeply passionate pet sitter-with lots of hands-on medical experience working in a hospital setting for humans, and a lifelong love for animals of all kinds (just no cat boarding, please-I'm allergic!). My daughter and I currently share our home with a bearded dragon and an axolotl, and throughout the years we've lovingly cared for dogs, birds, turtles, tortoises, geckos, and even a friend's water dragon. We've maintained aquariums with blue lobster crayfish, shrimp, and a wide variety of freshwater fish, and I was raised around saltwater tanks thanks to my father's passion for marine life. Together, we've hand-fed cherry red tortoises, cared for koi ponds, and welcome baby birds each season to the seven birdhouses in our backyard-it truly feels like living in an atrium. My daughter competes in horseback riding and has hands-on experience with goats, chickens, llamas, pigs, and even zonkeys. We've hand-fed kangaroos and giraffes, pet penguins, cuddled bunnies and guinea pigs, ridden camels, and even fed alligators. We're fully comfortable with live feeding for reptiles and amphibians-crickets, worms, and more. Dogs are our biggest joy! We offer backyard agility play, trick training, beach days, boat rides, paddle boarding, park play and runs (my daughter is a competitive track athlete). We love dressing pets for fun occasions (always safe and functional), providing custom feeding routines, and yes-even holding special chew treats to make your pup feel spoiled and secure. We're also experienced anglers, and my daughter has worked as a mate on various fishing boats, giving us even more hands-on animal care and outdoor experience. While I can't host cats due to allergies, I'm happy to provide walks or drop-in visits for dogs even in homes with cats. And if you have animals that are a little outside the box-just ask! We have a true passion for wildlife and Iove exploring new animal care opportunities. Hi there! I currently work per diem, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m available most days and weekends. I also offer holidays and last minute get away watching if you are you are ever in a pinch! I offer a safe, calm environment with a fully fenced-in yard and no other dogs—so no scruffles or stress! I also have a large vehicle that can easily transport supplies or pets if needed. Whether it’s a day visit or overnight care in my home, your pets will be in good hands. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet!

Olha has been a huge life saver. Our dog has anxiety and is fearful of new people. Olha came 3x to make sure Abbie was comfortable before we went on a vacation . We even see her waving good bye. I can’t not say how truly appreciative we are for her. Anyone that needs a dog walker or sitter please idk olha!
I used Dillan yesterday for my 8 week old golden retriever puppy. I was very hestinant at first as an owner of two other dogs ages 11 & 4 I never used a sitter to help out with my dogs, however Dillan make the process so easy and help ease my nerves about having someone care for my dogs. He answered my messages on a timely manner and even shared pictures and a cute video of my pup Dunkin playing in the yard. I would highly recommend Dillan to care for your pets. He also followed the many rules and expectations that I’ve asked of him I Look forward to using him on a regular basis. Overall 10/10 service.

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.
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 Lindenhurst 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 .
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.
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 Lindenhurst with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lindenhurst. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
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.
