“Michelle was available last minute for us and did a fantastic job. We left our pups in a hotel in the city and she came and hung out with them so we could go see a show. Thanks Michelle!”
“Alexandra did a great job with our 17 year old cat. We were out of town for 3 days and came back to a very clean living space and a very content Isis. Would definitely recommend Alexandra for overnight sitting with your pet!”
“Christopher was great with Chloe and very attentive to her. He sent lots of pictures while he was with her. He communicated with me when he got here, during his stay with Chloe, and right after he left. I will definitely be booking with him in the future!”
“Rachel has watched our cat, Oliver, overnight for us 3 times and dropped in to feed him once. I cannot recommend her enough. I never worried about Oliver while we were gone and Rachel was thorough in asking questions about his care and communicating with us prior to and during her stay. She’s been able to gain Oliver’s trust and affection, which isn’t always easy. On our last trip, there was a chance our flight would be cancelled given how severely delayed it was and Rachel put our minds at ease that she would stay if it was cancelled to take care of Oliver.”
“ren took great care of my very energetic dog. i felt totally comfortable and received several updates throughout the day. thank you SO much for taking such good care of my girl 🌸”
“Elsie took great care of my dog as well as my apartment when I was gone for one night. I’m always a bit nervous when someone watches my dog for the first time but I felt very at ease with Elsie! She was super nice, punctual, and overall reliable. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“I was in a pinch for a work trip and had Juliana take care of my dog. He was recently injured and I was very unsure about having to leave him because of this. Juliana was great. Very responsive and understanding. I'd be happy to recommend her.”
“Jewel was quick to respond to my request and asked many good questions before agreeing to house sit. She also wanted to have a meet and greet before our appointment which I really appreciated. She is very communicative, thorough in terms of what is expected and knowing what the dogs need, and very good-humored; she even took notes during our meeting. The dogs were immediately comfortable with her and I was perfectly confident leaving them in her care. She gave me updates during the day, and everything was great when I returned. The dogs were happy and so was I. I would certainly request her to stay with them again.”
About: I’ve worked at the Brooklyn zoo and aquarium in Brooklyn as a teen. Then worked my way to volunteering at my local animal shelter. I’ve always had a love for animals. Now I foster dogs and cats till they find their forever homes. Even family and friends ask me to watch their pets on occasion. I’ve done dog walking and boarding for many years now as well and I would love to continue to provide for animals rain or shine. I currently work from home so the most I leave for are some social events here and there or groceries. I have transportation if pick up and drop off is needs as well. I have a gated yard around my apartment. There grass and all the other animals in the building run around and use the property. I provide at least three walks/potty breaks a day, take time to train and reward. I’ve giving medication and baths on request as well.
About: When I was a young boy, I was terrified of dogs due to a negative experience when one bit me in the face. However, everything changed when I met my partner, who had a large dog named Bentley. Bentley was gentle, caring, and loving. He helped me overcome my fear of dogs. In return for all the help he gave me, I took care of Bentley until his very difficult last days. I have experience in pet care, specializing in providing loving care for senior dogs and foster dogs with special needs. I have managed post-surgery care, rehabilitation, and medication administration, ensuring each pet's health and comfort. My skills include handling dogs with behavior issues, potty training, walking and crate training. I am dedicated to creating a safe and comfortable environment for all dogs, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. I work from home, your dog will be supervised 24/7 while in my care. Your dog will have plenty of space to be comfortable in my home. Your dog will be walked in a leash and supervised though the duration of the walk. Your doggo will receive plenty of play time and attention. Plenty of toys to play with and share. I always keep fresh water available. If going on walks, I always make sure leashes and harness are in good working condition. Let me know if your dog is reactive or needs any special behavioral help. I have a French Bulldog that will keep your dog company as well.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 15. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I work for myself and have a very flexible schedule so don’t be afraid to send a message. I can handle most dog breeds ranging from multiple sizes. I love all animals and can’t wait to meet your pets. I’m currently trying to explore multiple sources of income that I can work into my own schedule. And dog walking seem like the best way to experience different dogs while earning money. I’m very fit and willing to keep your pet entertained and in shape. I also have a puppy whose very friendly and wants to have other fur friends.
“Meaghan did a phenomenal job with in home sitting over a weekend away! She was very punctual, professional, and did a great job with communication and sending updates. Would be happy to have her watch our dog again!”
About: I usually work with shy, aggressive or fearful dogs or cats. It can take weeks, months or years to befriend them but when you do it's extremely rewarding, especially when an animal someone deems "dangerous" comes out to be the biggest sweetheart. I have tons of patience and I believe every species of animal deserves love and respect. As humans, it's our duty to be the voices and guardians of the animals in our care. They look to us for comfort, guidance, love and peace. That's why I do anything in my power to donate or volunteer at animal shelters because every animal should know that there's humans out there that actually care about their well being. Working with animals is a great career for me. Update; 8/2020 I’ve been volunteering and working with pets as a professional pet care provider for five years now. Through my journey I’ve learned pet CPR and gained dog training knowledge through Poochpals llc as well as worked as a dog handler at walterspetstyles. I’m currently working on becoming a certified dog trainer and furthering my knowledge on Pet care. At Poochpals we believe in being a friend for life so I’m definitely bringing our motto into the field and looking to become a furever friend for your pets. If you’re ever in need of an actual PROFESSIONAL pet care provider, look no further! I also have basic training knowledge so don’t be surprised if your pup or cat comes back knowing a few new tricks 😂 I have open availability Monday-Sunday. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! My dog, Odin, loves to make new friends of all species. Updates:4/7/2026 Hello friends! I would not be at 29 Hanford anymore due to instability, so I’m moving my business down to NYC before heading to PA. We have multiple fences in house and around the property. Pups are also supervised 24/7 and we have a designated dog room just for them. Back porch is also secured with gates. Dogs aren’t allowed on the lawn without human supervision and a 20ft leash. Lawn is fenced. We have strict safety procedures when it comes down to pets and children.
About: Being a caretaker and guardian for children & animals since I was 15 years old, allows a balance from nurture, knowledge to play that makes those I look after, feel loved. Additionally, I completed a two-year veterinary assistant certification program and held continuous care for small and large animals on a daily basis. I studied breeds and behavioral components of each, including appropriate ways to approach visible moods in dogs and cats. I also assisted our in-house Veterinarian with administering medication and procedures. Personally, I’ve loved animals all my life and started out by babysitting a few of my neighbors children and pets, and kept my elderly neighbor company and checked in on her since her son lived far and I noticed she was alone most times. I always believed animals are like small children who could never grow up to speak and advocate for themselves, which is why they need just a little more attention, awareness, understanding and anticipation of their needs. Quality of life and joy is supplemented by play, as similar to children, the more joy and engagement for their minds and activity is crucial to their life longevity and overall health. I’m currently only attending school at the moment, (Wednesday evenings and Saturday mornings) otherwise have more availability and flexibility than most. I find joy in playtime with both animals and children and feel it is crucial to their comfort and happiness, especially while their parents are away. I make sure to regularly review the instructions, prioritizing any medication they may have, as well as strict time frames their parents prefer any form of activities, such as going outside or bedtime. Other than that, it is my culture and belief since I was young, being a Girl Scout at a young age and navigating, those beliefs as an adult still: taking the upmost care of the space and things around you, this means often times leaving places better than I find it. I care for things as if they are my own as well as loved ones, as if they were my own family members (because that’s how I would want mine to be treated as well)

“Tag was very professional and responsible and showed a lot of care and attention to our senior dog. We would recommend her and will be using her again for our dog sitting needs. Thanks Tag !”
“Kristen took great care of our 18 month old labradoodle for 10 days. On our initial meeting, my wife and I loved his easy-going but responsible attitude and our girl took to him right away without any hesitation. A big bonus was Kristen's proximity to Prospect Park. We received lots of photos during her stay and Kristen was super fast replying to any questions we had. Kristen is definitely going to be our go-to sitter on our nights out and when we're out of town.”
“Em watched Buster for a few days and we could tell he was is good hands while we were away. We appreciated the updates and pictures each day. We will definitely ask Em to watch Buster again!”

Ariel was absolutely incredible! It’s been over a year since I’ve left the cats for an extended period of time while going out of the country and I was very nervous, but Ariel was incredibly conscientious and communicative. Her updates gave me great peace of mind. One of my cats is also very shy and I was amazed at how well Ariel connected with her. I cannot recommend Ariel highly enough.
This was Raksha’s second time with Olivia, and I couldn’t be happier! I was traveling for the weekend, and Olivia stayed at my place to look after her. Raksha absolutely adores her, and it’s clear that she’s in great hands. Olivia followed all her care instructions perfectly, was always responsive and communicative, and made sure Raksha was comfortable and well cared for. She’s also incredibly thoughtful and respectful of my home, leaving everything spotless and organized. It’s such a relief knowing Raksha is in such good hands whenever I’m away. I couldn’t recommend Olivia enough and would absolutely book with her again!
. We are two very neurotic dog mommies who absolutely adore our babies. Keeping that in mind, it’s very hard for us to find sitters that live up to our expectations. Well, we are very happy to say, Stephanie does. She is warm & caring, professional, and able to go the extra mile (like administering medicine and following our special desires). All in all, we’re happy to say we recommend Stephanie with absolutely no reservations.
Lexi took phenomenal care of Ollie while we were out of town for the week. She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated on how Ollie was doing each day. She treated our home with respect and left it tidy upon departure. We would love to book with her again for future trips!
Five stars all around! Madison was lovely to work with, they were thoughtful, incredibly friendly, and proactive with communication. They took amazing care of not only Sabzi, but our apartment as well--my husband and I were grateful to come back home from our travels to a happy, relaxed pup. Would absolutely book Madison again in a heartbeat. TYSM :)
I get super nervous & am very very particular with who I let into my home to care for Zeus because of a couple of previous bad experiences. From the start, I could tell Samantha was going to be amazing. And she was INCREDIBLE. She was communicative, followed alllll of my neurotic instructions, left my space in pristine condition, and really went above & beyond. I actually think my dog might have a crush on her so I cannot recommend Samantha enough. Part of me wants to gatekeeper bc she was that good, but everybody deserves to have peace of mind when they have somebody caring for their fur baby and Samantha provided that and more. Thank you SO much 🥹
Savanna is one of the sweetest pet sitters I have ever had. She is so patient and sweet with both my pups, even my rescue who is very timid. It's so valuable to have someone you trust. Whenever Savannah is sitting, I never worry about them because I know they are in good hands. She is always on time and keeps me informed on the sit. I would recommend her to anyone I know who is looking for a loving pet sitter.
Isabel did a very nice job with my dog Onyx. She was with him for two days and one night. She followed every instruction I gave, and kept in touch with me the whole time. She also kept the house very tidy as well. The cherry on top was the fact that she left her own little note to me and I really appreciated that. Would definitely book her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Ozone Park is $47 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $77 per night. 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 18,964 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ozone Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Ozone Park walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Ozone Park maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Ozone 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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ozone Park. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
