“Ana is wonderful! Clearly a very experienced pet sitter, and is also very personable and flexible with her schedule. My cats have a specific eating / litter box situation and I felt that Ana was the perfect person to look after them. She also sent over plenty of pics during each check in so I knew my little rascals were in good hands. Will definitely be in touch with her for future bookings!”
About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, keeping pets company, and following specific instructions from pet parents. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat your furry friend with the same care and attention I would want for my own. I’m currently a full-time student, but my class schedule leaves me with plenty of availability for pet care throughout the week. I’m generally available in the mornings, between classes, and in the evenings, with especially flexible availability on weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and sitting depending on the day and timing. I’m responsible about keeping my commitments and will always make sure your pet gets the attention and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications if applicable, routines, and anything else your pet needs. I’m respectful of your home and will keep you updated while caring for your pet. I want both you and your pet to feel completely comfortable and confident while they’re in my care.
About: I'm an animal welfare professional actively building toward a career in animal behavior and training, grounded in real-world shelter experience and a deep commitment to whole-animal care. My shelter background has given me hands-on experience with high-volume intake, humane handling of anxious and behaviorally complex animals, and close collaboration with medical, admissions, and volunteer teams. I work calmly under pressure and communicate clearly across all parts of an organization. Over the past year I've been going deeper into the areas I care most about: balanced training, behavior modification, play-based training, and socialization and neutralization work. I'm also drawn to the less-talked-about foundations of animal health, including nutrition, husbandry, and how they shape behavior. Training a personal service dog has been one of my most formative experiences, giving me an up-close look at how relationship, consistency, and technique intersect. Cats are just as central to my work as dogs, and honestly my own life. My first adopted cat came to me severely behaviorally challenged, and watching our relationship transform through the right nutrition, training, and species-appropriate enrichment has been one of the most rewarding experiences I've had with any animal. It deepened my belief that understanding the feline mind is just as important as understanding canine behavior, and I'm passionate about helping people see cats differently. Not as low-maintenance or mysterious, but as complex, communicative animals who thrive when their needs are truly met. Something I feel strongly about is helping the broader community understand what shelter life is really like — how it affects animal behavior, the many reasons dogs and cats end up there and are returned, and what that means for families considering adoption. There's so much misunderstood about shelter animals, and I think better public education leads to better outcomes for everyone. I do pet care full time as I train dogs and cats! I have a full house of animals with two cats, two dogs and a reptile! We enjoy an active life with walks, play and adventure although have a nice balance with rest too:) Safety is my #1 priority. I firmly believe that a trained animal is a happy animal! Every animal that comes into my care has clear expectations so everyone can thrive to the best of their ability. If at daycare, I have the ability to crate and separate dogs and I have a clean, fenced in backyard that has a doggy pool for those warm summer days! For check ins and walks, i'm all about what is most comfortable for the pet. If your cat just needs someone to clean their litter box, thats what I'm there for! Wether its a potty break or full adventure, I'm here for it!
“Ryozo did a great job watching our cat while we were out of town for a week. He made time to come by for a meet and greet beforehand, and kept us updated with pictures while we were away. We came home to a happy cat!”
“Thank you Qilin! Every visit Qilin provides Blaze & Starlette with amazing gracious loving care and kindness. She is a phenomenal pet sitter whom I trust will treat my cats as well as I do. I, Blaze & Starlette cannot ask for a better person and professional. God Bless you Qilin.”
About: i’ve loved dogs and cats my whole life and have experience with yorkies (my family pet) & medium sized dogs (i have 2 of my own!) and have also taken care of my friends dogs when they travel. i work fully remote so i have time throughout the day to check in on your pets! for most services i would prefer 12pm or later :) i have 2 fur babies that do not really like the outside so we go for shorter walks most of the time, but we go for longer walks 2 - 3 days out of the week for exercise and socialization
“Kathryn took great care of our two kitties while we were out of town. She was quick with all communications and made sure to check all of our kitties' hiding places to send a photo!”

About: Hi! My partner and I have been caring for our friend’s dog for several years whenever she travels — and we absolutely love it. That inspired us to start helping other pet parents too! We both grew up with dogs and cats, so caring for animals feels natural to us. We’re detail-oriented, always follow your pet’s routine, and make sure to stick to any special instructions — from feeding to walks and meds. We know how important it is to feel at ease when you’re away, and we’re here to give your pets all the love, attention, and snuggles they deserve. Let us know how we can help — we’d love to meet your furry family member! I work as a face painter at children’s parties, so weekends are usually my busiest time. During those days, my partner is available and happy to look after your pet. On weekdays, I have plenty of free time and would love to spend it caring for animals.

About: Ever since I was 5, I've always had animal in my life. My family got our first cat when I was 5 and she lived to be 22! I grew up being very involved in their care, even going to the vet with my parents. Since then I've lived with many different pets and watched many friends and family's when needed. While sitting I will have plenty of free time for walks, the park, playing, and hanging out. Any attention your pet may require. I'm accustomed to long stays and quickly getting to know pet's personalities. As of right now I have complete open availability so can be as present as needed. I currently have open availability and can always be around when you and your pet need it. Weekends, weekdays, and long stays are no issue at all. I'm located in Ridgewood and travel mostly by bicycle so I can get anywhere fast. I let pets approach me, especially when first meeting, to give them the space they need and to not appear confrontational. Staying consistent and being calm with meeting pets where they need to be met is well understood. Environments will be kept clean and behaviors will always be noticed and taken into consideration. You can rest assured knowing emotional and physical care will be a top priority.
“Christina is thoughtful and sent amazing photos of her visits with the fur babies. My dog is very old and grumpy but was won over by her! I felt at ease and able to enjoy my vacation!!”
“Jeffrey took care of our big 15lb cat, Amor. Jefferey was fantastic and even managed to get Amor to eat treats out of his hand! I can't even get Amor to do that. He was wonderful and we would definitely have Jeffery come back when we go out of town again to take care of our Kitty. Thank you Jefferey!”

Nancy was great and very proactive in making sure we were all sorted out for her visit with Gweni. I was also really impressed by how thorough she was and how well she remembered everything we talked about! I’m so appreciative she was able to take out Gweni. Thank you, Nancy!!
Ashely is the best! She follows instructions and leaves thorough notes and pictures. My puppy is pretty reactive and Ashley takes careful consideration when watching her. My puppy absolutely loves her and I’m so happy I found someone I’m comfortable with and can leave town knowing my dog is in great hands. 10000/10, would absolutely recommend Ashley every time. ❤️
Regina was great with Ruthie. Ruthie can be stubborn at first and Regina got quickly into her good graces. She kept me up to date throughout my vacation and took initiative when difficulties arose. Happy to know Ruthie has another friend to look over her in the neighborhood!
Isis was extremely attentive to any special request and instructions that I had for my dog. She was on time and was a great communicator with great follow-through. A very sweet and kind disposition to her. I would absolutely recommend Isis to anyone looking for a kind and friendly care taker for their pet!
Emily has been Coco’s regular dog walker for quite some time, and we truly could not have asked for someone better. She is incredibly reliable, trustworthy, communicative, and most importantly, genuinely cares about Coco. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing that when we were at work, Coco was with someone we completely trusted. Emily was always dependable, kept us updated after their walks, and treated Coco like she was her own. Coco absolutely loves her, which says everything! We’re only parting ways because Emily received an amazing full-time opportunity, otherwise we would happily have kept her as Coco’s walker for years to come. Anyone who has the opportunity to have Emily care for their pet will be incredibly lucky. We’re going to miss her so much and can’t recommend her highly enough. ❤️🐾
Chase was awesome! He was so great with our dog and cat - they loved him. He stopped by our apartment a few times to feed, walk and play with them while we’re were away for a long day. Was always responsive and sent thorough check-ins, would highly recommend and book in the future!
Kiana was fantastic with my dogs! She was super flexible on short notice, set up a meet and greet right away, and asked all the right questions. One of my pups is a senior who requires several medications twice a day, and she handled his care seamlessly. She is trustworthy, kind, and took wonderful care of my dogs. Her communication was great throughout the entire stay. I highly recommend her and will definitely book her again!
Taylor was absolutely incredible with my nervous rescue! I booked her last minute when I had a medical emergency and was able to help by the next day. She provided so many updates on how she was doing during their visits and took the best pics! Taylor even stayed with her extra time to hang out and let her get used to her. They were best girlies by the end of their visits! 15/10 recommend Taylor especially if you have a nervous pup!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Middle Village stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Middle Village 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.

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

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.
