“Alex has been great to work with. Beyond professional, Alex has made me comfortable with leaving my temperamental dog’s pee breaks in his hands!! He follows directions to a T & communicates well. Definitely book with Alex if you’re looking for someone who cares”
“Raul did an excellent job pet sitting for Gunner. He made sure to follow instructions my husband and I gave him, which gave us a peace of mind. When something wasn’t completely clear, he checked in with me, I really appreciated that level of communication and care. It’s safe to say he’s doing a great job getting to know both us and Gunner, and we feel comfortable trusting him with our dog. Highly recommend!”
“Jeffrey was incredibly communicative, answering texts promptly and giving helpful updates. He followed all instructions and was just great with my kitten, giving him his medicine and playing with him.”
“Peggy is a wonderful pet sitter! Followed instructions to an T and was easy to communicate with when changes happened on my end. I never expect a sitter to clean up messes but it’s so great when they do, Peggy brought our packages in too! My cat is super happy :) Thank you Peggy!”
“Nykijahe was a fantastic sitter for Tucker. She was attentive to the small details and made sure to give him extra love while I was away. Came home to a very happy pup :)”
“Marcela did a wonderful job walking Beau and following instructions as he's still a puppy and training to walk. There is another puppy she walks in the apartment, but although we offered that she could walk Beau together with that puppy, she stated that she preferred to give each dog individual attention, which we were surpised by and appreciated. She took a lot of photos and videos, and we'd gladly ask Marcela to walk Beau again!”
About: Several years ago, when a friend was going through a rough time in her life, I housed and took care of her dog for half a year, and that's when I realized I could do this! Since then, I've regularly taken care of other friends' pets on and off, and I would love to do the same for your pet too! This is my full-time job, which means you and your fur baby will get my full-time attention! Except for Thursdays which I reserve for community volunteer work, my schedule is very flexible, and I will do my best to accommodate you and your pet's needs. I live in a 1-bedroom apartment with no roommates! I also have 2 AC units to keep the space nice and cool during the hot summer months. Every few months, I also house my friend's pet, an American Eskimo dog who is very friendly and absolutely loves meeting other dogs! I live near several dog parks that are within 15 minutes' walk, so your fur babies will always have a chance to meet new friends and neighbors. I love taking care of dogs, whether at my home or at yours!
About: I’ve had my dog for over 15 years and I’ve walked and taken care of other people’s dogs for more than 5 years. I’m comfortable taking care of big dogs as well as dog and cat sitting too. My schedule is pretty flexible and I devote most of my week to pet care, so I should be able to accommodate your requests even if they are last minute. I am careful and meticulous when I am in another person’s home and taking care of their pets. I follow their regular daily routines and always make sure pets are fed and played with in addition to taking them for walks.
“Thank you Ambur!!! When we came back home Minifeli was happy and relaxed. It looks like he had a great time with her! After he hides every time someone comes to our house, seeing him come out to welcome Ambur every day in the pictures, only shows me that she won his trust. Big thank you Ambur!!”
“Jiamin is an excellent cat sitter. She's great at communication and care instructions. She was very gentle with our kitties who got along well with her immediately upon their first meeting. She also sent us amazing photos of our cats every time she visited. We can't recommend her enough!”
About: Hi, I'm Maria a pet-friendly and responsible caregiver with experience caring for my own pets, my uncle’s dogs and my neighbor senior dog. I’m very careful and attentive with their well-being, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. With an extroverted, kind, and trustworthy personality, I build great connections with both pets and their owners. Some of my skills are: * Daily feeding & maintaining routines * Walking & exercise for active care * Attentive supervision & affection I'm currently working part time since I'm in college my free days are monday and friday all day so I can properly take care of your pet. I live in a cozy basement apartment with direct access to a fenced backyard, perfect for safe play and exercise. Pets in my care enjoy supervised outdoor time, comfort indoors, and lots of affection. Whether at my home or a client’s, I’m careful, attentive, and committed to keeping pets happy and secure.
“Mila took care of our two kitties, our frog and a fish during a long and last minute vacation. She was very warm and professional and communicative/responsive and sent us many pictures, I was especially impressed because one of our cats is super shy and usually hides from cat sitters but she had her playing and purring almost from the beginning. Thanks so much Mila!”
About: I really think I have quite a bit of experience with pets. As I was growing up, I had several at the same time and I took care of them all at once and with a lot of love. I had a rabbit, two cats, and a dog. I'm currently available every day, and regarding the schedule, I think we can discuss that between ourselves and decide. I would love to work for you, and I'm eager to meet your lovely pet. I live in a decent apartment, not too big but cozy, and my biggest advantage is that I live across from a park and close to a pet shop.
About: I’ve been training , an owner, and taking care of dogs and cats since I was little. My family and friends have trusted me to feed, walk, and pet sit their animals multiple times. I am available to care for your fur children M-F from 11-10! Anytime during those hours I am able to play with, walk , or feed your pets. I can crate dogs if needed, as well as provide any treats or food. Happy to follow any instructions to give your pups the best care!
“Everything I had requested (wet food prep, litterbox cleanup, and pets) was done and documented very well! No complaints, Mayleth was quick to respond and on time for scheduled visits. Will definitely rebook and recommend to other pet parents who are looking for a warm and reliable sitter. Thank you, Mayleth!”
“Has taken such great care of our kitty! MaryEllen even added on a few extra days of visits when we started to suffer from long distance pet guilt! She’s easy to work with and communicates so well about how our cat is doing.”
“Schirn cat-sat for us on late notice over the holiday and she was fantastic! She was prompt with her timing and sent great photos when dropping in, we will definitely be reaching out for future cat-sitting needs!”
About: I've been working at a doggy daycare in San Francisco for over five years and I never get tired of working with puppies! I am capable of handling any sizes of dogs and I love it when they bond with me and follow me around. I am also experienced with dog sitting and it brings me joy to see the pups get snuggly at the end of the day. I’m working from home few days a week so I’m pretty flexible with the schedule. Evenings and weekends work for me too if you need a last minute reservation! My experience as a dog handler trained me to be aware of my surroundings and I am really good with communication so I won’t be hesitate to reach out to clients if I ever encounter any issues or have any questions regarding the pups.

Katherine was very good with my pets and provided updates for each visit. She was great at communicating and providing pictures for each walk and visit. My pets seemed to enjoy her company! She also cleaned and kept the space tidy without having to ask. I'd definitely recommend Katherine and also request for her again for future sitting.
She was wonderful with my two pups! She was attentive, caring, and took great care of them with very little instruction. She was intuitive, flexible, and quickly picked up on their needs. It gave me real peace of mind knowing they were in such capable hands. I would absolutely trust her to care for them again.
I want to thank Sharon for helping me during the most difficult time in my life by taking care of my dog Riley on his last days in this world. Riley has succumbed from complications of Stage V IVDD (congenital). He’s only two. Sharon helped me navigate his hospice care. Sharon also took care of Riley when he was a puppy. Sharon is a reliable, compassionate and caring person. Thank you Sharon.
Erik was absolutely fantastic. He was incredibly responsive, communicative, kind, and friendly from start to finish. My dog is very shy and usually takes a long time to warm up to new people, but he opened up to Erik almost immediately, which says a lot. Erik also accepted a last-minute booking during an insane heat wave and still showed up in 90-degree weather without hesitation. I truly appreciated his reliability and care. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again
May has been a repeat for us because of her kindness with Courage. She knew how anxious he was and came BEFORE the booking to ensure he was warmed up to her. We didn’t ask for that and she went above and beyond. On top, she’s always consistent with her communication and shows such care for our Courage. Will always use May!
I highly recommend Christina. She was flexible about doing a quick meet-and-greet before the actual pet sitting, which I really appreciated. She was attentive to all the instructions, asked thoughtful questions, and gave updates. Overall, I felt like my pets were in great hands.
Esther was great with communication and taking care of our puppy Chutney! She was very thoughtful and attentive to our home and baby. Chutney can be a little shy at first until he opens up and Esther was so considerate giving him his space and waiting until he was comfortable to play with her. We will absolutely book with Esther again.
I had a great experience with the nail trim service. She was incredibly responsible, professional, and patient throughout the entire visit. She handled everything with care and made sure my dog was comfortable the whole time. I really appreciated her attention to detail and reliability. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and skilled pet caregiver!

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 Maspeth 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 Maspeth 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 .

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 Maspeth with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
