About: What I think truly sets me apart is my tailored approach to each dog's needs, ranging from feeding medicine, to early walks or even just lovey extra attention, I’m always here for it. I like combining enthusiastic play with disciplined training techniques. Whether your furry friend is a playful pup needing playbite training and endless games of fetch, or a cherished senior who thrives on gentle care, medication reminders, and comforting companionship, I really try to provide a safe, loving, and happy environment. My experience includes puppy socialization and specialized senior dog care, ensuring every dog in my charge receives the individual attention and expert care they deserve, making their time with me feel just like your home. At the moment now, I am unemployed so that gives me more then enough time (even every day) to help take care of your pup when you need it! With every pet is different, I like to converse with the owner about the character of the dog and habits as well as any other important health information that I should keep in mind before sitting, and if it is in your home, I’m very well mannered and have respect for not just the home but pups safety too
“Alex was great! He was on time and took care of everything with no issues! He also took tons of great pictures and checked in as well. Will definitely be using him more in the future!”
About: Always feel the warmth of dogs of my family & friends . Usually they run to me right away! Love to play games & take long walks with your dog. Since I’m not currently not employed, I’m available full time & on short notice. It’s so important to keep a consistent routine with your pet so they feel comfortable. I prefer taking care of pets in their home environment. I can drive long distance if needed. Looking forward to getting to know your pet & starting a strong companionship right away.
“Great sitter. Always came on time and went above and beyond what was asked. Kept me up to date with what my cat was doing, sent pictures and played with him. The questions she asked during our meet and greet solidified her for me. Really felt she was knowledgeable and experienced. Will definitely book again when needed!”
About: I enjoy cats and dogs as I have had my own, currently pet sit for my roommates cats while she’s on vacation. Cuddle puddles are my favorite pastime Evenings and weekends are preferred, can be flexible. I can do drop ins anytime past 6pm on the weekdays and anytime on the weekends. Emergency calls can also be arranged. I care for pets by slowly introducing myself, first by smell then when comfortable, by touch. I give treats when warranted, but ensure no over feeding/snacking. Lastly I cuddle with pets who are most comfortable.
About: I’ve taken care of my calico cutie for almost 10 years, as well as having dogs durring my childhood. Also, I’ve dog sat for a family friend for nearly 4 years. Currently I am working part-time as a barista a few days a week, my availability reflects the days i am off, or what time before/after work i am available so there shouldn’t ever be any time issues! I will treat your animal as my own, but I understand that I’m coming into your space and their space. I will be very courteous of my surroundings & work efficiently with you to create a positive experience.
“Paulina was amazing! She was able to accommodate for a last minute request and she did such a great job! I would recommend her 100%, definitely going to be booking again!”
“Jennifer did a great job caring for my cat Loni and I would not hesitate to engage her again. She was very understanding of my cat’s temperament and treated her with care and consideration. She even visited during a horrible snowstorm to make sure Loni was taken care of!”
About: Being around animals brings me joy and I want them to feel at ease because I know they are missing their pet parents. My calm, patient and kind personality will be comforting to your pet. I’ve given medications and have cared for many types of dogs and cats as well as chickens, birds and a duck! I am also very conscientious about safety, being on time and keeping your home tidy. When you return home it will be as you left it and to happy pets! I am recently retired, therefore my schedule is flexible daily, including weekends and overnights. Let me know what your needs are and I will do my best to accommodate. I can pet sit in your home. I do not have my own pets but family members I live with have 2 cats that I often help care for. Safety and caring for your home and pets are important to me. You will return to a tidy home. I am happy to discuss how to accommodate your needs.
About: Dogs are my personality. I’m someone who grew up with multiple dogs at a time in my home. Right now, I have a 100 pound black lab, Kobe!! He is my life but I have room for more to care for like my own. I’m young, active and most importantly have a passion for dogs. I have experience in both large to small dogs and walking up to 2 dogs at a time. I’d love to be your next choice. I’m pretty much free. I am available mornings to 4pm Monday to Thursday. Fridays I’m booked. Weekends really depend but I am normally free and around. When I go to a clients home, I care for their pets as they tell me to do, following the rules and respect their home completely!!
“Nadine is absolutely wonderful with my two senior dachshunds and the senior conure. Before we went away for a few days, Nadine came to the house four times to get to know the dogs and the conure and to spend time with them. The “kids” love her and respond to Nadine as if she were an old friend. Our oldest doxie is a 30 lb standard who no longer does stairs, so he needs to be lifted up and down from the back stoop every time he goes out. The catch is that although the old boy won’t climb stairs, he suddenly thinks he’s Superman and can jump! Nadine quickly mastered the correct lift and block to get him up and down safely. Nadine kept in touch and checked in and out and sent extra pictures each of the three times she visited each day which was very reassuring. I know the dogs were in great hands, and so do they; and I know that because When I got home, they did not rush to see me to complain. They were welcoming and happy and totally at ease. We will absolutely use Nadine the next time we have to leave the dogs(and the bird).”
“Trevor took excellent care of our lab Daisy while we were away. He kept us informed and sent pictures of everything they did. It made us feel at ease knowing she was in good hands.”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in North Babylon is $25
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - North Babylon
Great sitter. Always came on time and went above and beyond what was asked. Kept me up to date with what my cat was doing, sent pictures and played with him. The questions she asked during our meet and greet solidified her for me. Really felt she was knowledgeable and experienced. Will definitely book again when needed!
Kristin is professional, reliable & a very obvious pet lover. My pet takes a long time to warm up to people, and Kristin gained her trust by being consistent, loving and caring. She gave me peace of mind with helpful updates, pictures and consistency. She also treated my home with immense respect, by keeping things tidy, taking out the trash and even helping with some daily house chores. I absolutely trust her and would book with her again!
Tori is truly exceptional and I am so happy to have found her here on Rover; after many interviews with people recommended by acquaintances etc., I was losing hope in finding the right person to watch Izzy, my 3 month old Golden Retriever. Tori is thoughtful, reliable, and deeply attuned to both pets and people. From the start, I felt an immediate sense of trust; Tori is communicative, calm, and incredibly conscientious. She went above and beyond to ensure my routines were followed carefully and that Izzy felt safe, loved, and understood. So grateful to have found her and cannot recommend her highly enough.
Lilian was an absolute joy to work with. My anxious staffy warmed up real quick and ended up having the least amount of stress ever while I was traveling. Lilian went above and beyond for my pup; reading stories, plenty of attention, and giving lots of love to make sure my pup was loved and cared for. Your furry friend will be in great hands!
Simone was so helpful and reliable! Our cats loved her from the start. She sent great pictures of our cats and we could tell they were in great hands. So grateful for her excellent ability with animals!! We hope she will be available for future drop in visits for our cats. Thank you so much!
Krysta took such good care of my 8 month old mini dachshund Butter. I was in need of a sitter last minute and she answered me right away and took on the request which I really appreciated! Butter absolutely loved her and she always kept me updated. I will definitely book with her again.

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 North Babylon 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
