About: I have experience with puppies (basic training, routines) and senior dogs (gentle care, medications), and I treat every pet like my own while keeping owners updated and worry free. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work from home, allowing me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and frequent breaks throughout the day. I also occasionally babysit for a friend nearby, which is easy to balance with pet care and never takes me far from the home. This flexibility lets me maintain consistent routines, playtime, and quality care for every pet. I follow each pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide plenty of supervision, playtime, walks, and affection, along with feeding and any special care needed. I keep the environment safe and calm, respect house rules, and share regular updates so owners always know how their pet is doing. 🐾
About: I’ve dog sat for people on vactations, overnight, and even cat-sat. I enjoy going on walks with the dogs and will make sure they are hydrated and safe in the florida heat! I am free every day of the week for boarding, doggy daycare, and overnight stays. I am available for dog walks every morning, afternoon, and evening as well. There are just sometimes walking limitations during noon. There are no other pets in my apartment currently. In my clients home, I will take them on walks and help them go potty and feed them at the required times people need. If your dog is one that wakes up in the middle of the night to use the restroom, that is okay too.

Massapequa dog parents share their Rover experiences
I was traveling to Long Island and needed a sitter to attend a wedding because I could not leave my dogs unattended in the hotel room. Karen was amazing! I booked her several months out. She was incredibly responsive and responsible. She initiated check ins as we got closer to the date. She really put my mind at ease that my dogs were in good hands. I could not say enough good things about her. My only complaint is I wish she lived closer to me!
My family and I are so grateful to have connected with Lauren! Having just moved and not knowing anybody in the area to look after our dogs, I was nervous about finding someone to help us out while we were away for a long weekend at the beach. My dogs took to Lauren immediately! She is extremely nice, down to Earth, responsive and reliable. I felt extremely comfortable with her in our home. She sent photos and updates of the pups during her visits as well. Highly recommend and am excited to book her again in the near future!
Katharine was awesome! She came to the rescue when our original plan fell through for someone to drop in and care for our dog while we were out of town for the day. Each drop-in, she was right on time, left thorough notes, and sent us photos. We sincerely appreciated her friendly demeanor and willingness to take on our last-minute request; we're so glad it worked out and we wouldn't hesitate to contact her again. Thank you Katharine!
