About: Hey there! I am new to sitting, but always willing to learn and gain experience :) Happy to take on any type of dog or cat (I have both). My cat is an escape artist, and my dog is insane. I can handle it all. I am free all summer for pet care! There is a short stretch of time in August where i will be away, but other than that, I am excited to meet new pet friends :) I am well versed in crating dogs, as well as keeping an eye on mischievous animals. I will follow any instructions given very carefully and ensure your pet is happy and healthy while you are away.
“Lily was absolutely amazing! She took care of my two cats, Dice and Button, while I was away on vacation and truly went above and beyond. From the very first visit, she was communicative, reliable, and incredibly caring. She made sure both cats were well-fed, safe, and happy, and even spent extra time giving them attention and affection. Dice is usually shy, but under Lily’s care, he quickly warmed up and started following her around, which says a lot about how comfortable she made them feel. She also kept me updated every day with sweet notes and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I came back to happy, well-cared-for cats and a tidy home. I couldn’t have asked for anything more. Thank you, Lily! I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and dedicated pet sitter.”
“Breanna was an amazing pet sitter for my dog and cat!! She went above and beyond caring for them and was super communicative and loving with them. Would definitely have her pet sit for them again ❤️❤️”
About: I’ve worked with pets of all ages, sizes, and energy levels—from playful puppies to slow-paced seniors. I tailor my care to each animal’s unique needs, whether that means reinforcing good leash manners, sticking to medication schedules, or simply providing comfort and consistency while you’re away. What sets me apart: • Experience with puppy training basics (crate time, potty schedules, leash work) • Comfortable with senior care, including slow walks, joint supplements, and extra TLC • Clear, consistent communication with photo updates you’ll actually look forward to • Flexible scheduling and a calm, confident approach to any surprises Every pet is different—I pride myself on learning their quirks, respecting their routines, and becoming a familiar, trusted presence while you’re gone. Pet care is my main focus and part of my daily routine—I do it often and love every minute of it! My schedule is flexible, which means I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays throughout the week. Your pet’s needs are my priority, and I make sure they get consistent, loving care whenever you need it. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, their safety and comfort come first. I follow all care instructions closely, keep environments clean and pet-friendly, and never leave animals unattended in unsafe situations. I respect your home like it’s my own—locking up securely, tidying up after visits, and making sure your pet feels relaxed and loved the entire time you’re away. I also give regular updates so you can feel confident and connected, knowing your pet is happy, safe, and in good hands.
About: Hi, I’m Mindy — I run MindySits 🐾 I treat every pet like my own, simple as that. I’m patient, reliable, and pay attention to what each dog actually needs. Beyond pet sitting, I’m deeply involved in the rescue community and serve as a Foster Manager with BARRK Rescue, where I help oversee placements, guide fosters, and support dogs coming from difficult or uncertain backgrounds.

Whether it’s walks or overnight care, I keep things calm, consistent, and make sure your pet is comfortable and well cared for. I’ll also keep you updated so you’re never wondering how things are going. Dependable care and a happy dog that’s always the goal 💛🐶 Hi! I work a hybrid schedule, home 2 days a week.

“Words cannot express how happy we were with the services provided by Seamus. His updates and photos put us at ease that our two cats were being well taken care of. Seamus was attentive and spent quality time with Skittles and Tomasina. When he was concerned about something ( a hairball) Seamus promptly and calmly contacted us. He treated our cats as if they were his own. We will be booking and the cats will be looking forward to their visit from Seamus in the near future.”
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: 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.

About: Hi! I’m Hallie. I am a lifelong dog lover who understands how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I grew up around dogs and currently have two of my own who are basically my whole world. Because I’m a dog parent myself, I know how much care, patience, and attention each dog deserves. I’m very active and love long walks, beach walks, and getting outside, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and attention. I’m comfortable with different personalities and energy levels, including dogs who may be a little shy, reactive, or still learning the ropes.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience working with dogs in structured, public, and therapeutic settings.

I am patient, responsible, dependable, and focused on making every pet feel safe, comfortable, active, and loved while in my care. How does pet care fit into your daily or weekly routine?

Siobhan is absolutely amazing! She took care of my two dogs while I was away, including one who is extremely shy and usually takes a long time to warm up to new people. Siobhan was so patient, kind, and attentive that by the end of the stay, they had become great friends. During my trip, I had an unexpected family emergency and needed to extend my time away. Siobhan was incredibly accommodating and was able to continue caring for my dogs until I returned home, which gave me tremendous peace of mind during a stressful situation. She provided detailed updates and photos after every visit, so I always knew my dogs were happy, safe, and well cared for. She even went above and beyond by bringing in packages that were delivered while I was away. Siobhan is reliable, compassionate, and truly treats your pets like her own. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!
Sydney was great. We were very apprehensive about leaving Penny alone. We were going away and our usual sitter had a last-minute change of plans. She doesn't do well boarding anywhere so we had Sydney stop in to dogsit. She was great with communication and did everything we asked to make our dog feel more comfortable with us not being home. I would 100% have her do this again if we needed. Thank you.

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 Massapequa Park 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.

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.

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.
