“Highly recommend Chuck! He took such good care of my Guinness! She isn’t great with strangers and can get aggressive but Chuck took it slow and let her get used to him. I think she felt comfortable and safe there. Had to cut stay short due to a family illness and Chuck was very kind and understanding. Will definitely book again! Thank you!”

“Sue and John were absolutely amazing when watching our fur baby! This was the first time we have left our pup and they eased all of our anxieties and worries. They followed what we do with our dog and gave plenty of updates. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter and we are looking forward to our next booking!”

“Amazing with Kip. Kip had a blast of a time and Michael sent plenty of updates to reassure that Kip was being properly cared for. I couldn’t recommend anyone more than Michael, genuinely the best experience I’ve ever had using Rover.”

“Our pup had a great time with Melissa! We got lots of pictures and she was extremely responsive to our questions. I loved knowing he was well cared for and having a ball with the other pups. Will definitely be booking again!”

“Where to begin? As a first time dog owner it was extremely hard to leave our amazing Moxy with just anyone until now. Heather not only treats Moxy as her own but she understands our love for her as well. Her flexibility is incredible and makes it easier to drop her off at a time that is best for Moxy. It is also heartwarming to receive pictures and messages while we have to be separated from her. I honestly will always book with Heather because her family becomes Moxy’s second family!”

“Marybeth was so sweet and you can really tell she wants to do everything in her power to make your dog feel at home/safe/and comfortable. Will use her again when traveling. Thankful for her!”

“There are not enough good words to say about Kathryn!!! My dog Brody was in the absolute best of care. From the moment I dropped him off until the moment I picked him up! She was sure to send a lot of pictures and videos. I can tell she truly has a love for animals. She made sure Brody felt right at home!!! Not only would I be using her again for my dog- I would HIGHLY recommend her services. She clearly has a lot of experience, knowledge, and love for animals!! I am so happy to have found her that I can leave my dog and have not a worry in the world - because he was in the best of hands with her. So thankful to have found the best dog sitter around!!!”

“Sailor had a wonderful time with Gen and her family! Great pictures while she was in her care! She had a safe and fun space inside and outside of her home:)”

“Laura was willing to meet with us and Archie before the stay which definitely made both my boyfriend and I feel better. She sent us pictures and videos everyday and we loved it. We got to see how happy he was and it made us feel much better having to leave him behind while we went on our trip. It was our first time leaving him for that long of a time. We would definitely recommend Laura.”

“I’ve always boarded Sadie at a kennel and this is my first time using a private sitter. I have to say the experience was great! I received daily updates with pictures and even little blurbs of what they were doing during the day. I highly recommend Chris and will definitively be calling him anytime I need someone for Sadie. I could’ve asked for a better person to watch her…”

“Dahiana is a great example of a person who loves to take care of animals ever since she was a little girl she had a passion for them. She is fun and caring about every animal she has taken care of. Dahiana is an awesome choice for your adorable pets sitter. Just count on her!! And they will have a wonderful time!”

“Very kind family who took their time to abide the schedule I had provided for my dog, as well as updated me constantly on his well being. Very kind, extroverted children who love dogs as well. Thank you greatly.”

“Patrick is an absolute gem. Our sweet Teddy was taken care of just like he was a member of Patrick’s family. Teddy was comfortable and happy throughout his stay. Patrick is an excellent communicator, easy going guy. I highly recommend Patrick’s services. Your pup will be in great hands.”

“Lori is a great sitter. She watched both of my dogs for 3 nights and both of them came back extremely happy. You can tell right away that Lori is a dog lover. I will use her again the next time I go away. Thank you Lori!!!”

“Where do I start my dog fell in love with Ellen and her family, she loves animals and took care of my baby(dog) like if it was her own. This was my first time having someone other than family take care of my dog while i went on vacation and I must say Ellen made me feel very comfortable and at ease knowing my dog was in good hands .Overall they are amazing people and I'm so glad she loved having Max there. He will definitely be back.”

“This was my first time using the app and I was a little apprehensive after some bad experiences on other sites. In a pinch, I found Gina, readily available on a holiday wknd. I had many questions given my prior experiences and she was super understanding, responsive and very familiar with high-energy, large puppies. As soon as I dropped my baby, he fell right into place! I was updated at least once a day with a lovely photo of his well-being. I could tell his was in great hands. Not only was he happy but so active that Gina volunteered to bath him before pick up. I was away for the wknd during the inclement weather and my travel plans changed and Gina was super accommodating. Nash had such a good time, I didn’t think he wanted to come home! They even taught him a few tricks. He was so pooped when we got home he fell asleep for hours!!! That’s how we like it. Thank you Gina and Dan for the prompt updates, extended playtime and wonderful care. Nash was happy and even a bit more socialized after pick up; that is saying a lot. Would highly recommend Gina to any caregiver looking for a place to bring to their four-legged family members.”

About: In addition to my own family dog growing up, I've taken care of my own two dogs for five years! Living in Port Jefferson has only increased my appreciation for neighborhood pups - it is an instant mood boost to see other dogs out and about. After an incredible year of receiving care from Rover ourselves, we are opening our home to take the best weekend care of your pup while you are away! I am an extremely organized person, ready for the details to best take care of your furball. -(Danielle, with help from partner Zach) On weekends, my partner and I are home all day to provide the best care and exercise for your pup! We walk our own dogs every 2-3 hours, and can adjust to the schedule that your pup needs for exercise and feeding. Additional availability during the week especially over winter break! With two friendly dogs of our own, we NEVER leave the dogs unattended. One or both of us will be present at all times. Dogs are happily allowed on furniture, but there are plenty of soft dog beds available for snoozing as well.

About: I've been in love with animals since before I could walk. My family has had dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, frogs, birds, etc. since before I was born. By the time I was 9 I persuaded my parents to let me get my first cat. I've been responsible for big and small dogs, sick cats, feral cats and more. I've taken puppys to puppy school. I'm no stranger to the vet. Theres not much I wouldnt do for these furry critters. I work remotely for my main job and I am not required to sit in front of a computer so I can go walk dogs, make home visits or pet sit at my home! I am only working outside the home 3 - 5 hour shifts a week! My yard is fenced in. I have cameras on the house and friendly neighbors just incase. I do have a spare room the animal can stay in if need be. I also have a cage big enough to fit anyone that needs it. Windows and doors stay locked at all times. There are also water bowls all over the home as well as toys.

“Maria was amazing! Our pup was so happy there, and we were happy to get the pictures and videos of our girl playing and snuggling. Maria's home is beautiful, and she has amenities just for her furry guests that make the stay extra special. We ended up having some travel complications, and Maria put us at ease and let us know our Rommie would be well taken care of, making the entire ordeal far less stressful.”

“Popeye my boxer had a great time with Cinthia who provided excellent care, ensuring plenty of enjoyable walks and engaging playtime. Their attention to these details surely made Popeye feel happy and well taken care of during their time together.”
