“Marisa was wonderful! She spent the weekend expertly caring for our 6 cats and dogs as if they were her own.

About: I've cared for a variety of pets over the years—including my own cat for 10 years, a guinea pig for 2, a parakeet, and a hamster. I've also looked after my parents' fish and my brother's Husky, and have completed house sits for both cats and dogs during my travels. I have a flexible schedule and live nearby, so I can easily accommodate your pet’s daily routine and provide reliable, attentive, loving care every day. Hi, I’m Betty, a native New Yorker and lifelong animal lover. I’m clean, friendly, and dependable, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets—whether that’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. As a homeowner and former pet owner who had relied on house sitters for my own pets, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your home and animals. I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away, and I’m always happy to send regular updates and photos for peace of mind. I’ll treat your pets with patience and kindness and respect your home as if it were my own.
“I seriously couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! My event was delayed and she ended up staying with my boy for an extra hour. She also took him on a long walk and sent lots of pictures. I didn’t worry at all about him and was able to enjoy my night. I’ll definitely be booking her to watch my baby in the future!”
“Kevin was great and a huge help watching Sora for an extended period of time (10+ nights). I returned to a healthy dog and a clean apartment, so happy with the service he provided! Would book again!”
“Andrea took amazing care of our dog when we were away for 2 weeks. She gave her long walks, all the treats, and followed all care instructions. She’s attentive and loves our dog, even though our doggy can be a little nervous and timid at first. We love that we now can have a caring dog walker and sitter for our little Mia. Thanks Andrea!!”
“Iggy was amazing with Darby, as well as being a house guest. Very understanding and communicative, both respectful of my home, as well as my dog--couldn't have asked for a better experience! Will definitely be rebooking and highly recommend!”
“Maddieson was absolutely fantastic. She communicated throughout her entire stay with our pets and made us feel calm and at ease. She went above and beyond to ensure they were exercised and given attention. Would 100% hire her again and recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter.”

“Daniel did an excellent job taking care of my two senior pups on such short notice for 9 days during the Thanksgiving holiday after i had an unexpected last minute cancellation from my other pet sitter. Daniel came to the rescue and was diligent about the medications needed to be administered for my pup Ray who has 4 eye medications to do on a daily basis. Daniel sent pictures and videos and kept me updated along the way. He also left the home spotless on my arrival and with happy pups! Will definitely be reaching out to him for the next time. Thank you Daniel!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rego Park
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.
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.
Charlie was fantastic. I needed a last minute pet sitter and am so glad I found him. He had great communication, fast response time, and my dog loved him and I was able to enjoy my trip knowing she was being well cared for. I've used Rover before and it has been an up and down experience due to people initially agreeing and then not responding or cancelling days later. I'm really happy to have found Charlie and can't tell you how much I appreciated his quick and reliable communication.
Vanessa did an absolute amazing job staying with Onyx. She was with him for two days and a night and did everything that I asked her to do the exact way I asked her to. She kept in touch with me the whole time and dealt with my paranoia as I never left him before.. She left the house, nice and clean and took out the garbage. I will definitely be booking her again. Thank you Vanessa.
Kaylee is amazing. Our 1 year old pitbull loved her from the first minute. She is truly a "dog person". Our dog Cannoli had surgery earlier in the week. Kaylee followed all our instructions with medication and sent videos. We could see our baby snuggled up with Kaylee sleeping. I will Absolutely be booking again.
Nouni took great care of my two pups at our home while we were away. She was very responsive to our texts and had no issues administering my boy Lino’s daily eye medication. They enjoyed their walks, and even though there was snow everywhere, they were walked daily, fed properly, and had a great time with her👏🏽 Definitely recommend her!
Rachael put my timid senior rescue girly at ease right away. It was such a relief to know she'd be well-cared for. Rachael even got on the floor and tried to handfeed her, when she wasn't interested in her breakfast! Lots of pics and updates, too. Will definitely be using Rachael again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Rego Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Rego Park on Rover is $52.27 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 18,991 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rego 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 Rego 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 Rego 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 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!
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rego Park. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
