“This was our 2nd time using Lisa and Michael’s services. They are extremely helpful and diligent. They make us feel at ease while we are away that we don’t have to worry about our pets or who is in our home. They treat our cats like they are their own, provide photos daily, and keep everything very clean. We already have them booked for our next trip.”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since ever can I remember. I grew up with dogs, cats, horses, and ducks, allowing me to learn how to responsibly care for them from a young age. After I moved out 3 years ago, I adopted a puppy that I have been the sole caretaker for, so I’ve seen the puppy phase and worked on training. We are always going on new adventures or playing whenever I have free time. I also have 2 cats that I’ve raised since kittens, which has helped nurture my fondness for pets, and I would love to spend some of my free time with yours! :) I’m currently working full time as a research coordinator, but WFH on Fridays so I have flexible availability Fridays, and full availability on Saturdays and Sundays. I can also be available after 5pm Mondays-Thursdays! I will follow any instructions for pet care that works best for you, following routes for walks and whatever you need from me. I will communicate throughout the walks or visits as well so you can ensure your fur baby is happy and healthy!
“Madison was great! My puppy ripped up an Amazon package and she so kindly cleaned up the mess and put the item somewhere he couldn’t get to! She kept me updated the whole time and handled his puppy craziness so well! Highly recommend!”
“We have an 18 year old and a 13 year old cat. The older one is missing several teeth so can only eat shreds. The younger only eats dry food but wont touch it if its been out over an hour or two. We hadnt gone on vacation for several years because we didnt want to burden friends with multiple cat visits. Rover to the rescue! Steff's daily drop-ins gave us the peace if mind we needed. She took care of feeding, water, litter boxes, and even meds. She came every day easing the burden on friends. She sent daily updates including photos of our fur babies. We will definitely hire her again.”
“Jess took care of my pup Leia while I was away for the day at a baseball game and sent me update photos each visit and some comments on how the visit went. Leia had a lot of fun. Will definitely use Jess again!”
“Kelly is amazing! She was very quick to respond and was able to help us out when our usual sitter cancelled last minute. She took great care of our puppy and provided lots of updates!”

About: Hi there! I’m Jacob, and I’ve been passionate about dogs my whole life. Growing up, I was the go-to person for taking care of friends and family’s dogs, whether it was walking, feeding, playing, or just giving them the love and attention they deserve. Now, as a recent college graduate with a degree in Film Production from New Paltz, I’m back on Long Island and looking to combine my love for dogs with the opportunity to make some extra income. I understand that every dog has its own unique personality and needs, and I’m dedicated to making sure they feel comfortable and safe while in my care. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, cozy cuddles, or a little playtime, I’m ready to make their experience as enjoyable as possible. I also pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and detail-oriented—traits that I honed during my time managing creative projects in film production. If you’re looking for someone who treats your dog like family, I’d love to help out. Let’s make sure your dog has the best experience when you're away! I currently work part-time, but I pride myself on having a flexible schedule that can easily accommodate you and your pet's needs. With enough notice, I’m happy to adjust my availability to ensure that your dog receives the attention, care, and love they deserve, whether it’s a daily walk, overnight care, or just some extra playtime. I’m here to make sure your pup feels at ease, no matter what your schedule looks like! Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. I’m a big believer in the outdoors, so I love taking dogs for walks and letting them run off some energy in safe, controlled spaces. When caring for your dog at your home, I respect your space and routines while ensuring they feel comfortable and secure. I’m committed to your pet’s safety and well-being, and I treat them like family.

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!

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 Sayville 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.
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 Sayville 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 .

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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 Sayville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 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.
