“Gerri is the complete caretaker for my doggie buddies. Her caretaking, kindness, and willness to be accommodating raises the bar of excellence. Her striving for the most excellent care of my dogs is amazing and so is she. Thank you Gerri, Charles”
About: I have babysat and pet-sat since I was 16! I would feed the neighbors animals and take them on walks. When sitting I took care of the kids and the pets. I have taken care of bunnies, cats, and dogs of all sizes!! Pets feed off of your energy and can feel your emotions and that is why we connect so well!! I have fed, walked, groomed, and cuddled with our furry friends and love to spend time with them. I've owned four dogs, including my English Mastiff, Moose, and have experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need medication or extra support. Whether your pet needs exercise, engagement, or companionship, I'm ready for the job! I am currently going to school for my masters and have breaks throughout the day to talk walks and care for your pet! I have evenings free and can board most nights of the week when planned! I have plenty of time to play, cuddle, and love on your furry friend. I have a fenced yard and no pets, so can easily adapt to your pets style and needs. I live in a walkable, quiet, pet friendly, family neighborhood. I live with 2 girls, also college graduates who both work as EMTs! We do not keep anything out that would be a danger to a furry friend and have an open floor space comfortable for lounging and whatever needs your pet has! :))) I'm able to step away from my responsibilities to ensure your pets receive consistent attention and care. I always follow your instructions and respect your home and your pet's routines. I focus on creating a calm, positive environment, whether that means adhering to feeding schedules, administering medication, or keeping your pet engaged through walks and play. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and well cared for.

“Sophia is the best! Prompt communication, timely arrival, no confusion. She gave Rizzo the best possible care and made me feel at ease. 10/10, would definitely recommend.”

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will always follow their routine and owner’s instructions carefully. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available for pet sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walks throughout the week and on weekends. I always do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine and needs. Once school begins, my availability may change slightly on certain days, but I will keep my calendar updated so pet owners always know when I’m available. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs. I understand that every pet is different and deserves individualized care. While caring for pets in your home, I will make sure they feel comfortable in their familiar environment and receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision.
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. Growing up, I lived with two tuxedo cats who completely stole my heart. As I got older, I took on many of their daily care responsibilities, including feeding them, cleaning their litter boxes, playing with them, and making sure they felt loved and comfortable. Today, my wife and I are proud pet parents to two black cats. In addition to caring for cats, I have experience watching a toy poodle puppy under one year old. My responsibilities have included taking her outside for regular bathroom breaks, supervising walks, engaging her in play and exercise, teaching basic tricks and commands, reinforcing good behavior, and helping her work through separation anxiety. Caring for a young puppy taught me the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, patience, and attentiveness to a pet's individual needs. Whether caring for cats or dogs, I am committed to providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment where pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, and I strive to give each pet the same level of attention and affection that I would want for my own. i work part time in the mornings and am available most days after 1pm. I am a doctoral student at Stony Brook University, so I am flexible to watch your pup or kitty any time in the afternoons/evenings. If needed, I can do an early morning stop by at 6:30AM prior to heading to work. in my clients home, I will be respectful of property, taking off shoes before entering the house, cleaning up any messes that the animal/myself may create, ensuring the animal has food, water, litter box, toys, etc. accessible, and to lock up the house, windows, and any gates prior to leaving the home. I will always accommodate the clients requests. In my home, I have multiple floors to separate my animals from the animal(s) coming into my home. I also have a fully fenced in, large backyard for a dog to run around in. We have a home security system as well to ensure safety.
“D’Andre was a big help, came through last minute for me to take care of Rex while I was away for a trip. He was very nice to Rex, attentive and even took care of doggy spill Rex had. Super communicative during the visit and I’m glad I hired him and will hire him more in the future.”

Enjoy true peace of mind knowing your pets are in caring hands with Renee’s Reliable Pet Care! I can be part of a positive routine that your pet can look forward to! Contact me to schedule a meet and greet and check out my amazing reviews! 🐾 I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. I truly believe each animal has its own individual personality and quirks. My experience in pet care comes from having my own pets, caring for family, friends, clients, and neighbors. I started this journey because I had a difficult time finding reliable sitter’s for my own dog who has suffered from several seizures and has some separation anxiety. I would get canceled on when I was at the office and not have the care for him when I needed it most. These struggles helped me realize that I can easily be that reliable, compassionate person for individuals and their pets! I am punctual, great at showering pets with love and attention, and patient. I am reliable, caring and always happy to go out of my way to help others! I am all about details so please tell me everything your pet likes so my visits can be exciting and happy for your pet!

“Can’t say enough good things about Kim! She is amazing with our puppy and our puppy is considerably more well behaved on days when Kim stops by for drop in visits. Kim is an amazing communicator and amazing with dogs. Our puppy loves seeing her and I know she is well taken care of by Kim. Kim also takes great care of our apartment too - we always come back to a tidy apartment after her visits.”
“Bella was a pleasure to work with. She stays in touch leading up to the visit and afterward. She also did a great job of calming one of our more skittish kitties during our interview. We love the picture updates from the visit - thank you for those. Will definitely book again!”
About: I've always been an animal lover and grew up in Suffolk county caring dogs, chickens, quail and rodents! I'm the go-to pet care person for my friends and family and would love the opportunity to care for your pets! I'm a former volunteer of Save-A-Pet in Port Jeff Station where I cared for dozens of cats every weekend. I have experience with animals of all ages. I am comfortable dispensing medication for aging or ill pets. I've also cared for puppies and have even assisted in delivering a litter of goldendoodles! My pets are always a part of the family and I'd treat yours the same way! I'm currently a contractor worker for animation and advertising. Because my work is project and delivery based my schedule is flexible. I care for pets during the day and do my contract work in the late evenings so I'll have plenty of time to devote to your pets. I treat all animals with the care I would show to my own pets. I take care instructions seriously and respect each animals needs and preferences to ensure their comfort and safety.
About: Since I was 4 years old we had dogs at home, a boxer mix and a poodle. Later on when I was 15 my mom got a pug, and then another one while my sister got a big pit mix with special needs. And 7 years ago I adopted a dog of my own, a 60lb hound mix, who's the light of my day. I've walked all the dogs in my family, and taken care of them when needed. With my own dog, I do everything for him, from baths, playtime, walks, roadtrips, cuddle and I love him, his medical care is up to date and I always make sure he's happy and healthy. I've also watched over friends dogs and cats, and follow all the rules I've been given, every dog ans cat is different and unique and deserves the same respect and care. I am available weekdays after 5:30pm (except for Tuesdays) Weekends I'm usually available, I can be flexible with my plans. I do update my schedule regularly. I cannot dog sit in my home. But I will love to walk your dog(s) in your neighborhood, take them on a hike, take them on drives, as well as staying over for a few hours. I'll follow your rules with no problem and I'll give my outmust attention, respect and love to your dog(s). Meet and greets would be preferable. As well as letting me know of any health or behavioral concerns your dog(s) might have so I can give individualized care.
“Sharon was great!! She came for a meet and greet with very short notice a few days before our planned visit and was very flexible with timing. On the day of her drop in, she let me know when she arrived at the house and sent me a picture of Audrey right away. Very very happy!!”
About: Hi! I'm Bri ☺️ I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I've lived with animals since before I could talk, and caring for them has always been something I genuinely enjoy. Over the years I've had the opportunity to care for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I love getting to know what makes each of them unique. 🐶🐈 I'm currently offering walking and drop in visits. I know every fur baby is different. Some want to play the entire visit, while others are happiest taking a slow, sniffy walk or getting belly rubs on the couch. I'm happy to meet them where they're comfortable and give them the kind of care that helps them feel relaxed and happy. 🐾 As a dog mom myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your fur baby. I treat each and every one as if they were my own and always make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and patience. I'll also send lots of photos and updates during every visit so you can relax knowing your baby is happy and in good hands. 📸 I'm comfortable caring for baby, adult, and senior pets and I can administer oral medications if needed. My goal is to make every visit a positive experience for both you and your fur baby. I can't wait to meet you guys! 🩷 I work from home, which gives me some flexibility throughout the week. My availability can vary depending on my work schedule, so let me know what you're looking for and I'll do my best to make it work! 😊 Your baby's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I'll follow your care instructions closely, whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, giving medication, playing with a specific toy, or reinforcing your training routines. I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own and make sure your fur baby gets plenty of love, attention, and care while you're away. 🩷

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Selden
Janelle was amazing. I went away to Japan for 2 weeks and literally on short notice I was able to book her for late evening drop-ins for the entire duration. I met with her prior and went over everything and left her notes and emergency contacts. Everything went well and she kept me in the loop through the app with photos and notes. I will definitely be booking her again in the future!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kathy is truly amazing, and we feel so lucky to have found her! We have four dogs, which is definitely a lot to take on, but Kathy handles them all with so much patience, care, and love. From the very beginning, we felt completely comfortable trusting her with not only our dogs, but our home as well. She consistently goes above and beyond what we could ever expect from a pet sitter. She is incredibly reliable, attentive, and genuinely cares about each of our dogs like they are her own. Having four dogs means four different personalities and needs, and Kathy takes the time to make sure every one of them is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. One of the best parts is the peace of mind she gives us when we’re away. We never have to worry about whether the dogs are okay or being taken care of — we know they are in wonderful hands with Kathy. That kind of trust is priceless when it comes to your pets. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, caring, trustworthy, and willing to go the extra mile, Kathy is absolutely the person you want. We cannot recommend her enough! ❤️🐾
Amanda was excellent. Extremely responsive, punctual, and and provided us with frequent updates/photos. She took care of our pup while we were away via pop in visits. Everything went well. I’d highly recommend and will definitely be requesting her services in the future.

She was able to bond immediately with Champ and you could tell how much h she loved dogs and throughly enjoyed Taking care of him. She is absolutely the best!!
Bella was a pleasure to work with. She stays in touch leading up to the visit and afterward. She also did a great job of calming one of our more skittish kitties during our interview. We love the picture updates from the visit - thank you for those. Will definitely book again!
Morgan has been absolutely amazing helping me care for my foster puppies. She is always on time, dependable, and incredibly helpful with every aspect of their care. She is patient, attentive, and truly treats the puppies like her own. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares about animals, and her support has made such a huge difference for me during this hectic time. I can always count on her to be reliable, responsible, and compassionate. I highly recommend Morgan to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!
Kelly came by ahead of time to go over Cookie’s care instructions, even in the rain, which I really appreciated. She was punctual, attentive, and took the time to understand everything thoroughly. That level of commitment gave me a lot of confidence going into the booking.
D’Andre was a big help, came through last minute for me to take care of Rex while I was away for a trip. He was very nice to Rex, attentive and even took care of doggy spill Rex had. Super communicative during the visit and I’m glad I hired him and will hire him more in the future.

- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;

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 Selden 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.

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 .
