“Daniela was so great with our pups over a long weekend! She sent photos during every visit and even left a sweet note, with printed photos of our pups, for us to find when we got back from our trip! Would definitely book again, she was very sweet, professional and it’s clear she is an animal lover.”
“Elena was a great sitter for my cat Domino. She kept me informed of every visit and sent me pictures of Domino with every update. Poor Domino is a bit shy, so he didn’t come out much, but I know he appreciated having someone nice come over to feed him and take care of him while I was away. Elena left the apartment cleaner than when I left. Highly recommended!”
“Kelly is the cat whisperer (for dogs too!!) My 7 month of age ‘Cornish Rex” Luna loved Kelly for knowing everything about kitten/cat life. She provided play time, kitty meal time, along width affection. And during Luna rest time her liter boxes and dishes were cleaned. Kelly also advised me regarding a skin care question I had about Luna too. She is very professional, reliable and experienced with dog/puppy care too. I highly recommend her with confidence.”
“Amanda took amazing care of all of my animals. I am so grateful that she treated them as if they were her own. Nothing eased my mind better than knowing this while away in another country. Daily updates & photos were eagerly awaited by my daughter, especially. We highly recommend her for watching your fur babies.”
About: I’ve cared for animals through so many stages of life, from training puppies to caring for senior pets and helping my own pets recover after surgery. I know some pets require a little extra patience, attention, and care. I’m comfortable administering medication, following special care instructions, and keeping a close eye on pets who need extra attention. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pet like I would my own. ❤️ work from home, so pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day and can provide plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, walks, and companionship. I love having a furry friend around while I work, and your pet won’t have to spend long hours home alone. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. If your dog needs their own space, I can easily keep them separate in my home office with me while I work, so they’ll still have plenty of companionship and attention. When walking your dog, safety is always my priority. I pay close attention to my surroundings, including other dogs, traffic, people, and anything that could make your pet uncomfortable. I’m very detail-oriented and will follow any special walking instructions or routines you provide.
“Janelle was absolutely amazing with my two cats! They're on strict feeding/med schedules and she followed all of my instructions perfectly. She played with the boys and sent some adorable pictures. I just moved to the area and I think I found my new pet sitter!!”
“Jaclyn did an outstanding job watching my two cats! She made sure they were safe and well cared for. She provided updates and photos which we loved to get during our time away. I would recommend her to anyone and would love to have her visit again!”
About: I have loved dogs and animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I wasn’t allowed to have a dog, but I spent a lot of time caring for my neighbor’s Bernese Mountain Dog, Koda. I would walk, play with, and care for him, which helped me realize how much I enjoy working with animals and building connections with them. As I got older, I began volunteering with Carol’s Senior Pet Sanctuary, where I walked shelter dogs and sometimes brought them home overnight. This gave me experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, energy levels, and personalities. I understand that every dog is unique and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My love for animals has inspired me to pursue a career in dog grooming and training, with the goal of becoming a professional dog trainer. I’m patient, energetic, and happy to keep active dogs entertained while also being comfortable with shy or nervous dogs. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, bathroom breaks, companionship, or just some extra love and attention while you are away, I would be happy to help. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you are gone. I will treat every dog as if they were my own and give them the patience, attention, and care they deserve. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the week, including weekends. I’m happy to work around your schedule and provide care whenever you need it. Whether your pup needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or extra attention, I’m always happy to help and make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved! I take pet safety very seriously, both in your home and in mine. I make sure doors are securely closed and locked when needed, and I keep anything potentially harmful or unsafe out of a dog’s reach. I always keep a close eye on the dogs in my care, especially puppies who may be curious and get into things. I’ll also follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, and any areas of the home your dog is or isn’t allowed in. My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment where your pup can feel right at home.
“Ashley is the most amazing and sweetest sitter. So thankful to meet her because she helped me very timely and with so much grace. Thor loves her so much. We can’t wait to work with her again.”
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: Being around animals and making them feel happy is the best feeling to have. I have 2 dogs and cat, and they always manage to make my day. I have plenty of great places to adventure with your companion while you are busy! I have school online which makes me completely free! I am studying and practicing things that make me happy with my free time, (which there is plenty of) So, your dog/ cat will fit into my schedule perfectly! I live very close to many dog-friendly parks, and enjoy hiking, especially with a four-legged companion. I will take any opportunity to go on a long walk! It would be nice to take a dog with me sometime. I also bake, and have made dog treats for my Boston Terrier at home who might love peanut butter more than me... I'd love to share my hobbies with your pets!
“We had a short notice need for a sitter for “the girls”, Peaches & Reagan, and Emma and Trent responded promptly and were able to accommodate our schedule. It is so nice being able to count on someone and have “the girls” get so excited when they see them. Reagan for the extra attention and Peaches for an opportunity to get treats. LOL Dont hesitate if you need someone to watch your fur babies. They will be safe and and well taken care of. Thanks again Emma & Trent!”
About: I worked at a dog rescue/ groomer for 3 years! I would take the dogs to the beach and walk them occasionally, do home boarding visits and clean up cages! I have been grooming for about a year. I currently work part time. I go into work at 9 and leave at about 2:30 Tuesday through Saturday. Usually go to the gym at night but that’s only for an hour and a half. I fulfill any specific needs of dogs and will cuddle, play and hangout with them. I groom my dog at home so if grooming is needed I can also fulfill that too!
“Katlyn has been great with our two dogs! She is punctual and sends photos when the drop-in is completed. She did a great job feeding the two dogs in one of the drop-in visits and even administering medication for our puppy with allergies. Would highly recommend Katlyn!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in North Patchogue is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $36 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,904 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across North Patchogue. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Patchogue. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
