About: Your dog’s home away from home 💙🐾 I provide loving, personalized boarding in my home, with a fenced backyard, plenty of attention, playtime, and daily photo and video updates. I have over 10 years of experience as a dog walker and pet sitter, caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. My experience has taught me how to safely handle all kinds of dogs while understanding their individual needs, energy levels, and behaviors. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care they may need. While you’re away, you can relax knowing your pup is in a safe, loving, and comfortable home. I’ll keep you updated with photos and videos so you can see how they’re doing and feel close to them even when you’re away. Your dog will be treated like part of our family and cared for with the same love and attention I would want for my own! I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can give pets lots of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I love making sure every pet feels happy, safe, and loved while in my care. I live in a house with a fenced backyard where pets can safely play and enjoy outdoor time. I also have a nearby park for walks and extra exercise if the owner prefers. I am very adaptable and always follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s preferences, whether that means specific feeding schedules, walk routines, playtime, or special care instructions. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and at home while providing the level of care their family expects.

“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!”

About: Hiii animal lovers! I'm a former NYC rescue/shelter caregiver. I am GoodPup Certified(GCT) and Fear Free Shelters certified in positive reinforcement training practices. I spent the past 5 years working as a Senior Caregiver in a NYC rescue organization. Rescue/Shelter work gave me varied experience with dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. I am comfortable with both dogs and cats, small to large breeds, and from newborn to elderly. I have treated various kinds of medical conditions ranging from ear and eye infections, skin conditions, post op care, newborn care, and more. I’m also comfortable with deaf or visually impaired animals. My position taught me how to use my positive reinforcement training skills in my everyday interactions with our dogs and cats. This is the approach I take with all animals in my care because it works. Fear Free training is an approach that considers the emotional impact of our actions on the animals in our care. It teaches us how to use stress reduction techniques in all our interactions with them. A shelter is a very stressful place for any animal, so these techniques really help to reduce their anxiety. It is my job to make an animal more comfortable with me and the environment; and I absolutely love this work! Seeing an animal open up to me is the best feeling in the world, and one that I honor by treating them with respect. They are individuals and deserve to be treated as such. I read their body language and use that as a guide on how to approach or interact with them. I’d love to hear about your pets and look forward to meeting some new munchkins! I'm currently working part time. My schedule is fairly open but will change as I take on more walking and training work. I'd like to start with walking, drop ins, and boarding services. I will eventually add training services as well. Safety will always be my number one priority. We can’t walk, play or have any fun if we are not in a safe space first. I adore meeting people’s pets and hearing about the things that make them special and a member of the family. Let me know if your pet displays any reactivity. I can look out for these triggers on our walk.

About: Growing up in a household with multiple dogs, cats, turtles and the occasional chickens and turkeys, teaches you that every single animal is different, with unique personalities and needs; understanding that makes all the difference when you take care of them. I have a full time job, so I am available for early mornings and evening and night drop-ins. The weekends are free and my only concern those days is making sure I also keep my own cat's schedule. My lovely tabby is a task master, so we have a very solid routine for feeding, litter cleaning and play. This include morning and evening littler cleaning, marking sure his water fountain is running smoothly and cleaned once a week, rotating toys during play time so he doesn't lose interest, and set meal times

About: I have extensive hands-on experience in dog training, beginning with my first dog, a Jack Russell Terrier. Through agility and obedience training with her, I developed a strong understanding of canine behaviour, communication, and structure. I provide long, structured walks tailored to each dog’s individual energy level, temperament, and needs. At the owner’s request, I also incorporate basic obedience training, behaviour correction, and work on specific challenges such as leash pulling, reactivity, or lack of focus. I am attentive, patient, and consistent in my approach, always prioritising safety, mental stimulation, and the overall well-being of every dog in my care. I'm currently free on weekdays and sometimes on weekends too, early mornings and afternoons fits for me. I'm flexible for changes in my schedule and can adjust it to yours as well The safety and comfort of every pet is my top priority. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they are in a clean, secure, and calm environment. After walks, I always wipe or wash their paws, and I can bathe them if needed. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, treats, routines, and any special requirements. If medication is required, I administer it responsibly and exactly as directed. I pay close attention to each pet’s behaviour and comfort level to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for at all times.

About: I’ve looked after dogs of all shapes and sizes, you name it! I really care about animals and make sure every pet I watch feels safe, loved, and part of the family. I know how much they mean to you, and I always do my best to keep their tails wagging while you’re away. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I’m available Monday through Friday and I have full availability on Saturdays and Sundays. Whether it’s evening walks during the week or full-day care on the weekends, I love spending my free time with animals and making sure they’re happy, exercised, and cared for. When I’m taking care of pets, I treat them just like I would my own — with love, patience, and lots of playtime! I stick to their normal routine so they feel comfortable and relaxed, whether that’s keeping up with walks, meals, or cuddle time. I also love sending updates so you can see how your furry friend is doing while you’re away

Mark was fabulous with my lil girl who I have only had for a month. I appreciated he let me know she was scared at first (her first walk since I have had her with someone other than me!) He was able to coax her out and she was an absolute star in her second walk with him a few hours later. He has a very special way with her--and I fully trust him with her 🩷 He also provided a very thorough update on how many times she peed/pooped/ate/drank. I would love for him to be her regular walker.

We’re so grateful to Angie for looking after our little Moylan! ❤️ She took such great care of him, making sure he was fed, played with, and given plenty of attention. She kept us updated with lovely pictures and messages throughout, which gave us such peace of mind. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. We’re so thankful she was able to mind Moylan and would recommend Angie 100% to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after 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. ❤️🐾

Booked Charlie for a last minute 1 hour drop-in visit, due to unexpected/urgent appointments that took me out for the day. My pup is a recently adopted rescue with some reactivity and other idiosyncrasies, and I wasn’t comfortable leaving her with an unknown boarder or daycare. I was upfront about Lala’s issues-in-progress and Charlie was gracious, accommodating and communicative. During the hour-long visit, he sent plenty of photos and met my pup where she was at. Visit went smoothly and I was able to focus on my rather stressful day without having to worry too much about her. Thanks again.

I'm so glad I chose Carolina, she was absolutely fantastic - extremely professional, caring, and communicative throughout the visit, and I could tell from the first photo she sent that my pets were in great hands.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Rego Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Rego Park is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $44 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 October 2026, there are 26,379 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Rego Park. 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.

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 Rego 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!

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.

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.

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

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rego Park. On Rover:

  • 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

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.
