“Angela was the first person (other than family) we’ve had stay with our dog in 9 years. We were so anxious and she agreed to come do a meet and greet a few days before which made us feel so much better. She sent us frequent photos and updates. Our pup was a happy girl when we got home!”
About: I have over 7 years of active, hands-on experience raising, training, and caring for dogs of all sizes, including large and powerful breeds like Rottweilers. Since 2018, I have been fully responsible for managing daily exercise routines, structured neighborhood walks, and feeding schedules.Beyond dogs, I am highly comfortable caring for cats, and other household animals. I am very attentive to animal body language, making sure your pets stay safe, comfortable, and appropriately active while you are away. Rain or snow, I stick strictly to your pet's schedule. Pet care fits smoothly into my weekly routine because I am an early bird who loves getting out of the house early to stay active. I prefer being highly proactive about my availability, meaning I only accept bookings on days when I am completely free and can dedicate my full attention to your pet. Whether you need structured early morning exercise routines, mid-day check-ins, or reliable evening walks, I communicate clearly and stick strictly to your pet's established schedule. When caring for pets in a client's home, safety is my absolute priority. I am highly attentive to animal body language and know how to maintain structural control when walking larger, powerful dogs on a leash. I strictly respect your household environment, adhere to your exact safety rules, and keep outdoor routines secure by avoiding any unpredictable interactions with strange dogs or crowded spaces.
“Cassidy was amazing with our 2 year old German Shepherd, Bella. Bella was living her best life while we were gone on vacation, with plenty of TLC, walks and play time. Cassidy has a contagiously joyful attitude and love for dogs. She's also a considerate house guest. We highly recommend her!”
“There are dog sitters who feed and walk your pup and there are those who truly love and care for your them in a way that is so memorable, you can see it in the way your pup loves them back. Shwetta is all of this and more. Not only does she give our dog some of his best weekends, but she is always very flexible with the humans and our unpredictable schedules. We highly appreciate and recommend her lovely services!”
“John was responsible and reliable. We felt so comfortable leaving our pups and our home in his care. He was super responsive and came to meet the dogs before the care began. Thank you John!”
“Camille was amazing with Fury! They bonded instantly, and the frequent updates kept our minds at ease while we were away. The process was seamless and professional. We’ll definitely work with her again!”
“Garrett was so wonderful! My girl loved him immediately and I left knowing she was in incredible hands. Garrett was so responsive and asked such great questions to make sure all information was covered. I will definitely book again!”
“Cynthia watched my pup overnight and took such good care of him. I felt at ease knowing he was not alone and with someone who genuinely likes dogs (even old cranky ones like mine). Thank you so much Cynthia!!”
About: I'm an incredibly active individual. I love to lift weights, practice martial arts, hike, and go on runs. This allows me to be an excellent fit for a dog whose energy levels are high. If you'd prefer for me to not just take your dog to the bathroom, but provide them a good amount of exercise as well, I'm a great fit! When I'm not taking care of dogs I work as a writer, director, and editor on films, social media videos, and commercials. If you've ever wanted any photos or videos of you and your four legged friend (or just them) I can provide high quality images/videos for you as well whether you want to just show off to your friends and family or just to have status updates on how your dog is doing. Because I work freelance my schedule tends to be flexible and allows me to set my own hours usually. I will work with you as best as I can to fit your needs within my schedule. I treat dogs very similarly to how I treat people. I show them a great deal of respect, empathy, and love. I do tend to spoil my own dog here and there, but I also try to love him as unconditionally as he does to me. A golden rule I try to follow is treat others the way you want to be treated. Another golden rule I try to follow is to see myself in others. I also apply these two golden rules to my encounters with pets and nature in general.
About: I have been a cat owner for over 8 years, super experienced with taking care of cats and love all of them with my heart. Also, I have walked my cousins golden noodle countless times, and he poops over three times on one walk! I personally don’t own a dog but I enjoy hanging out with anyone’s special loved dogs. I am currently working in a kids indoor playground part time. Aside from the days off, I also have availability anytime after 6pm every day. I will make sure to keep all places clean and clean up any mess if needed. Making sure the pet feels safe before engaging any activities with them.

“Reliable, courteous, professional. Communicates with me throughout the stay with pictures and texts of my pets. Gives me peace of mind knowing Angelica will look after my pets with great care. I highly recommend her.”
“Brigette has been a dog sitter we have been able to rely on continuously while we are at work. We are in the process of training our 8 month old puppy whom is potty training, crate training and is slowly learning to get past his anxiety of being home alone. She has proven to be patient and attentive to Ziggy’s needs as well as in constant communication with Ziggy updates and any questions she may have. We have rebooked her multiple times thus far and plan to continue rebooking her!”
“Joane was great with our dog, Rosie. She gave us updates, and contacted us appropriately with a question about the house. I have already booked her for another pet sitting with Rosie.”
About: Hi! We’re so excited to meet you and your furry friends! Although this profile is under my name, my boyfriend Billy and I will be working together, which gives us more flexibility and availability to provide your pup with the attention and care they deserve. We’re both huge dog lovers and have plenty of experience caring for dogs. We have our own dog, Hudson, a big, lovable Anatolian Shepherd who is truly part of the family. Billy has had dogs his entire life and has experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, including potty training and caring for puppies. We understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and we’re happy to work with you to make sure your pup feels comfortable, safe, and loved while they’re in our care. I work at a school, so I’m typically available after 3:30 PM on weekdays. Billy works from home a few days a week, which gives him flexibility to help with quick walks and check-ins during the day. We’re both available most evenings and on weekends, giving us plenty of flexibility to fit your pup’s care into our schedule! We provide dog walks, drop-in visits, and in-home sitting, always focusing on making your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. We have plenty of hands-on experience from caring for our own dog, Hudson, and understand the importance of keeping pets on their usual routines. We also know the local area well and enjoy finding safe, enjoyable walking routes for every pup.
“My dog is feisty and doesn’t get along well with nearly anyone, but she loved Sara! Very responsible and communicative in important situations. She stayed at our apartment and left it cleaner than we did! Would highly recommend!”
“Alexa was an amazing sitter for our 2 large dogs. She was a great communicator and sent lots updates and pictures. We came home to our home just as we left it and 2 happy healthy dogs.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Little Neck
I’m so happy that we found each other in our new neighborhood! I met several wonderful people throughout the interview process, but something about her immediately told me she would be the perfect fit for my kitties—and my intuition proved to be absolutely right. She is genuinely affectionate, attentive, and caring with my kitties, and I can see how comfortable and happy they are with her. The beautiful photos she shares with us are also wonderfully captured and give us such peace of mind while we’re away. We feel very fortunate to have found her and are truly looking forward to teaming up with her for many years to come!
We were so lucky to find Dalila! This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Dalila took such wonderful care of Winnie — and our house! She made sure Winnie was walked, fed, played with, and given plenty of attention, which is no small task with a puppy! She also kept us updated throughout our time away with pictures and videos, which gave us such peace of mind. We are so grateful to Dalila and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and trustworthy sitter. Thank you, Dalila!
Michelle was very kind with our dogs! The communication was excellent, the dogs were well taken care of! She send us updates and photos every day! And the house was very clean and organized! We really recommend her and we will definitely write to her for our next trip!
This was the first time we had someone we didn’t know watching our dog and I was very anxious. Brigette was wonderful and made the whole week feel comfortable and put me at ease. We got daily updates about Arya with pictures and Brigette was so good with her. Brigette was also able to give her medicine she needed from a recent vet visit. She was very respectful being in our house overnight and I will definitely book her again for future stays.
Cassidy is simply the BEST! This was the second time we used her. This time she stayed in our home, taking care of our two dogs for two weeks! She adores dogs, she’s responsible, sends updates, left the house spotless and best of all our dogs love her!! One of our dogs has anxiety, and she handles him perfectly. Cassidy should be everyone’s go to girl ❤️
John watched our 2 senior dogs, one of which needs alot of assistance some days. John kept us updated by sending pictures and we knew they were doing ok. It was such a relief to be able to go somewhere and know everyone was going to be fine when we returned. We definitely will be using him again when we have functions to attend. We highly recommend John!
1000/1000! Bryce was a life saver!! She was available last minute to dog sit my 2 dogs at my home for a week! She sent thorough and constant updates that made me feel so at ease. The dogs truly adored her and she clearly loved them. She left the house in immaculate condition and went over and above what I asked of her. She will be my go to girl for all future trips!
Andrew as usual was prompt, kind and communicative. He not only sends photos, he takes really artistic ones! I found my house the way I left it, the cats and dog well taken care of and all my requests followed to the T. I highly recommend Andrew, he truly loves animals and is very thoughtful and caring about their well being.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Little Neck on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 19,014 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Little Neck. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Little Neck walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Little Neck maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Little Neck 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Little Neck. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
