House Sitting Mastic Beach

“We’ve now had Florence care for our four cats and one dog on multiple occasions, including an extended weekend and, most recently, an overnight stay. Each time, we’ve come home to a happy household and well-cared-for pets. Two of our cats are hairless and have some special needs, so we really appreciate how thoughtfully she manages their allergies and makes sure they stay warm as the weather gets colder. She’s responsive over text while we’re away, which gives us real peace of mind. Our home is always left clean and tidy, and all of our animals are safe, happy, and well cared for when we return. Caring for five pets with different needs is no small job, and Florence has been great. We’re happy to have her back whenever we travel and would recommend her to other pet owners!”

“Amber took great care of my dog Mocha. He gets very nervous when alone. She gave him plenty of attention and play time. Sent us pictures and kept me updated on how he was eating. I felt very comfortable letting her stay in our home. Will definitely be calling her again. Thanks Carol & Mocha”

About: My love for animals has stayed constant throughout my life. I am currently a receptionist at a veterinary hospital. I would love to continue my education in the veterinary field. I have always especially loved dogs and never been without a dog in my home. I have a 1 year old bichon-shih tzu mix, Lulu, who is full of energy and loves to play. Depending on the pup I'm housing or if I'm house sitting, Lulu can either stay in my home, as she loves other dogs or I can take her to my friend's house for dogs who would prefer to be the only dog in a home. I will give your pup all the love, patience, and play time they need to be happy and I will look after your beloved pet just like my own!

About: Throughout my life, we've always had dogs in the house and, as I’ve gotten older, there was definitely a period where it seemed more like a zoo than a human household with all of our rescues. When I was in high school, I fell in love with training dogs and really never wanted to do anything else. Over the years, I’ve made every effort to immerse myself in the field through work at Petco and multiple daycares, as a volunteer at Kent Animal Shelter, as a student with the Animal Behavior College, becoming a CPDT, opening my own business, and tentatively dipping my toes into the grooming aspect of it all as well. Hopefully, as time goes on, I can continue to pursue my dog training career as a multifaceted professional and expand more fully into my own business. I run my own multifaceted pet services business offering a variety of options from training and boarding to walking and photography, so my whole day circulates around pet-related bookings and activities. I live on half an acre of land with a fully fenced in yard, separate attached dog run, and plenty of space to run! We do a perimeter check twice daily to make sure the fencing is secure and the grounds are meeting our standards of cleanliness. I can easily crate dogs if that’s what their paw-rents request, but also have no problem allowing them to roam through the house if that’s what they’re accustomed to. I do have a few pups of my own, but they’re the friendliest guys you’ll ever meet — one is actually a quadriplegic! Everyone is in their own space while eating and stay separated for about an hour following meals to allow food to digest. Let me know if there are any other accommodations your pet needs!

“Absolutely Amazing dog walker. I have an 85lbs German Shepherd that doesn't like dogs, she did such a good job with handling my dog. Highly recommend using her.”

About: Hello! I’m new to Rover and would love to have the chance to care for your pets! I have grown up with dogs my whole life, mostly small (i love big dogs too!) and a variety of breeds! I’ve also had experience with dogs of all ages from puppies to senior so I understand the demands of all stages of life. I also have experience training basic commands. In addition to pet care, I also have experience with house cleaning services. If you’d like, I’m happy to provide light or full house cleaning during your booking for an additional charge. Feel free to message me for details! I am currently working full time so my availability is weekday evenings after 5:30 pm, weekends (all day), and Mondays late afternoon-evening after 3 pm I have a fenced in yard with a lot of room for your dog to run around! I have a mini poodle who would never hurt a fly, he’s getting old but still a puppy at heart. He is very friendly and will keep your dog company! With a crate provided, there is room to set that up as well.

“This was our first time leaving our dogs with someone other than family, so we were understandably a little nervous. Julie was absolutely wonderful and took such great care of our dogs. She gave us complete peace of mind while we were away, and it meant so much to know they were in such loving, capable hands. We will definitely request Julie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds for 5 years. Anything from puppy to elderly. I’m also able to comfortably give out medication if needed. I’m reliable and trustworthy. Your dog will be treated as if they are my own. I’m currently working full-time, but I’d be able to provide quality service and give your pets as much attention as needed since I have a set schedule. I am able to come to your home and stay overnight. I will treat them as if they are one of my own. They would be spoiled with love and attention.

About: Caring for pets is my full-time focus, so my schedule is flexible and I’m available whenever your pet needs me. I love long walks, so your pup will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and time to sniff around. I also have two dogs of my own, Koa (a Lab/Terrier mix) and Lilo (a Pitbull), so I’m used to a house that runs on walk schedules and dinner bowls. Pet care is my full-time focus. I have a flexible schedule and can help with walks or drop-in visits throughout the day, including last-minute needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, needs, and personality, and I approach every visit with calm, patience, and care. I treat every home with respect and always make sure pets feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for in their familiar environment.

About: Hi, I’m Finley! I’m a student here in New York, but I’m originally from Iowa and have been around dogs my whole life. At home, we have three Labradors, one is 13! I grew up training and caring for. More recently, my boyfriend and I rescued an Australian Shepherd mix who’s now 9 months old, and I’ve loved working with her through puppy training all summer! Since I don’t have any dogs with me in New York, I’d be so happy to share that same love and care with your pup. Why I’d Love to Care for Your Pet • Over 15 years of experience with dogs, from puppies to seniors. • Hands on training experience with both energetic and older dogs. • Active lifestyle with plenty of walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures. • Big fan of dog snuggles and quality downtime, too. • Flexible schedule to give your pet attention and care when they need it. (I’m mainly an online student so I have plenty of free time to watch your pup!) I miss my own pup at home so much, which is why I’d love the chance to take care of yours. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and treat them like one of my own. Im currently a student but only have classes part time. My roommate is also a student who’s home whenever I’m not, so your pet will always have someone around at all times!! I have a pretty good size apartment and love to play and snuggle!! I also love to walk so your pet would get plenty of exercise.

About: I created this account while looking for a drop in caretaker for my own pup. Since, I have started working from home and changed my account to become a sitter. I have loved being able to help someone else in need of the same services I was seeking and provide a trustworthy caretaker for their pup. It has been such a pleasure meeting & spending time with all the pups who have since stayed at my house. I know how important it is to make sure your dog is well taken care of during the times you're not able to be there for them. Being I work from home, my availability is super flexible. I would love to offer services to anyone who needs daytime/evening care or even an overnight stay for their dogs. I hope I am able to offer peace of mind to anyone else who was just like me and wondering how they would provide care for their dog when not home. I work from home so I have availability pretty much anytime during the day to help anyone local! I am also available evenings and weekends. And if you bring your pup over for Daycare or an Overnight Stay they will have company all day long :) I have a fully fenced in, locked at every access point, camered yard - you could say I'm a little obsessed with making sure my pup is always safe. I also live in a quiet neighborhood away from Main St. on a private road with lots of little beaches & bridges nearby for the perfect walk. I have a dog friendly pup to keep your dog company. However, if your dog is not dog friendly, I am also experienced in as I call it "musical dog shuffle" to ensure proper safety for both pups.

“Daniel took care of our dog Olive at our home over a long weekend. We returned to find both Olive and our home were in the same great condition as when we left!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for over 14 years. I have been a dog sitter at peoples homes. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and if needed bathe them. If they need any medications just let me know. I have time in the middle of the day and some weekends to take care of dogs and cats. I also can fit dog walking and to let them out in the backyard. I have a dog at home who is the love of my life and I also walk him. When I am at a client's home, I like to make sure the fence(if provided) is closed and the house or apartment is pet proofed as well.

About: I’m passionate about caring for pets and have lots of hands-on experience as a veterinary assistant, helping with feeding, exercise, giving meds, and comforting pups and kitties during check-ups and treatments. I’ve worked with all kinds of animals and love making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. When I’m not helping at the vet, I volunteer at animal sanctuaries, so your furry friend will be in caring and experienced hands! Pet care is a big part of my daily routine—I dedicate time every day to walking, feeding, and playing with animals, whether it’s at the vet clinic, the sanctuary where I volunteer, or with the pets I’m sitting. I make sure every animal gets the attention and care they need to feel comfortable and happy. Weekly, I also stay on top of their health by following medication schedules and monitoring behavior closely. Caring for pets isn’t just a job for me—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my lif When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where your furry friend can relax and feel at ease. I follow their usual routines for feeding, exercise, and bathroom breaks, and provide plenty of playtime and affection to keep them happy. I also make sure to monitor their health and behavior closely, so any needs or changes are noticed right away. When visiting your home, I treat your space and pet with the same respect and care. I stick to your pet’s daily schedule—feeding, walking, play, and rest—so they feel comfortable and secure in their familiar surroundings. Whether it’s a quick walk or an extended stay, I’m attentive to your pet’s needs and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind.

“Wonderful with our older dogs with separation anxiety. She sat with them at our rental while we visited family in the area. Communicative, punctual, and a warm personality. Will ask her to dogsit again.”

About: I’ve been in the dog/ cat sitting business for over 15 years with experience giving medications and taking care of your loved ones like my own. I have experience with puppies as well as senior pets. In-depth knowledge of animal care and training techniques. I’m currently working full time in the animal field and have pretty much a set schedule. I work early mornings and usually am home before 1pm everyday.

About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since I was young. I would help take care of my neighbors animals and babysit friends and family animals. I’m currently on Rover full time! So I’m able to make time for you and your animals! I want to make your life simpler. I’m happy to work with a family that is willing to work my schedule as well. I care for pets in your home by making sure they’re safe and where they are suppose to be. If you prefer your animal to be in a crate at certain times, I can do that.

About: Ever since my time of being introduced to them, I have always loved dogs. My uncle at one point owned a Husky and a Chihuahua and I would always match their energy and enthusiasm. I have gained some experience dog sitting my old friend’s Chihuahua for about a year. During that time, I learned skills for walking, showing dominance, feeding, and playing with dogs. I, one day, hope to own a Husky and Shiba Inu myself. Please feel free to contact me and discuss further options on myself becoming a pet sitter for you. Thank you for your time! I’m currently working full-time. My schedule is fairly consistent in being Mon-Fri, 9AM-5PM. Outside of those hours, I am available to watch animals, provide company, engage in activities and even house sit to help ground certain pets who may be uneasy when their owners/family are aware. I love to engage in activities that both exercise and communication is enhanced. Not all pets love to move and there are some who prefer their homey-lodgings over a day in the sun. For them, I provide company and conversation as well as any indoor toys or preferences the owners may inform me about.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a child. I’m a registered nurse looking for extra work on my days off. I can also assist with senior care or medical needs. I am a travel nurse looking for extra work while in between assignments or on my days off. My schedule is flexible. I am here to help you with your pets. I do not have any pets here with me. I would love to take care of your pets in your home or take them for a walk.
