“Oli did a great job while house sitting and taking care of our little min-pin. Our dog loved her and she was very responsive to our requests for pictures and updates. She also left the house very clean and the dog well fed. We would love to have her back.”


“Bianca housesat for my two dogs, and she was an absolute gem. Friendly, communicative, and my dogs loved her. She followed all of the instructions that I left, sent great pictures, and kept me updated all along the way. 10/10.”


“Sarah was absolutely amazing. I have never been able to go away without worrying who would be around to feed and let out my dogs let alone worrying about them being alone all night. She kept me updated on how they were doing and sent pictures. My babies absolutely love her! She did not disappoint!”

“Samantha was so kind, gentle and caring with my Noelle, I could not have asked for a better “babysitter”! I am so grateful to have met her and look forward to working with her again!”

About: Hello! My name is Abigail. I am a calm, observant, and deeply reliable pet and house sitter specializing in providing a peaceful, structured environment for your animals and complete peace of mind for your home. While I am a dedicated beginner on this platform, my life has been rooted in a deep love and respect for animals. I grew up in a household where we lovingly cared for both a family dog and a family cat. Through that personal experience, I understand firsthand that pets are not just animals—they are family members who thrive on consistent routines, clear boundaries, and nurturing, empathetic care. I approach pet care with a quiet, steady energy. I have always been naturally drawn to animals, and I excel at reading their non-verbal cues to ensure they feel entirely safe, secure, and comfortable while you are away. Whether your pet requires high-energy tracking on daily walks or simply a quiet, gentle presence to sit with them in their space, I adapt my approach entirely to match their unique personality and baseline needs. What I Bring to Your Home and Pets: * Meticulous Attention to Detail: I take your specific, daily care instructions seriously. From precise feeding schedules to maintaining your pet's exact exercise routines, I ensure everything is executed exactly as requested. * Home Security & Grounded Reliability: As a clean, quiet, and highly respectful independent professional, I maintain your property lines with absolute care. I keep your living space immaculate, respect your privacy, and ensure your home remains secure and peaceful. * Empathetic & Attentive Communication: I know how deeply you miss your animals when you are away. I provide clear, steady, and consistent updates and photos according to your preferences so you always know your pets are thriving. I am looking forward to connecting with you, honoring your household boundaries, and treating your beloved pets with the highest standard of quiet respect and care. I’m committed to having pet care be a big part of my weekly routine. I’m eager to dive into house/pet sitting, so my daily/weekly routines definitely have space for bookings. I provide clear, steady, and consistent updates and photos according to your preferences so you always know your pets are thriving. I am looking forward to connecting with you, honoring your household boundaries, and treating your beloved pets with the highest standard of quiet respect and care.
About: I have 20+ years of experience taking care of dogs from puppies to seniors. I had four dogs of my own growing up which I took a hands on role in caring for and playing with. I currently have 2 dogs whom I love! I have looked after dogs for both friends and family. I am reliable, trustworthy, playful and will look after your fur babies as if they were my own. I'm currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pups & cats. I am able to make myself available on weekdays and weekends. I offer drop in visits for both dogs and/or cats, dog walking and overnight stays at the client's home when needed. I have experience with puppies & kittens up to seniors. I have had both dogs and cats of my own. I love animals and it would be a privilege to care for your dogs and cats.

About: I have had experience with dogs since I was young, but I started looking after them for others three years ago. I currently care for the same dogs every day; I know how to prevent fights and avoid dangerous situations, and above all, I have a great deal of respect and love for these furry friends. I work as a dog sitter; my available time is only on Sundays and Mondays I'm looking to just walk dogs, but over time I could do you a favor with something else.

I treat all animals as if they were my own and will do anything in my power to make sure your angel babies are safe, happy and loved at all times. I send pictures of your pets when you’re away and updates. As of now, I only work part time so I’m available to watch and care for animals around my schedule easily! I always work around my schedule with my clients. I follow directions very carefully with what my client expects. I always go above and beyond especially for animals. I’m very open and always have good communication with my clients.

About: Hello, I’m Raymonii or Ray. I’m a Toy Designer and Illustrator, and dog lover! I have always had a love for dogs and have watched some of my family and friends dogs for about 2 years and now have my own! I am ambivert. I love the outdoors, playing, and having energy to run and have a great time with mine and your pets. I have a backyard ready to play in and I also live 5 minutes from a trail. I value your pet’s safety and happiness like they are my children too! I work remotely at my house which is near a dog friendly trail and I have a spacious backyard. I am available currently seven days a week. I am very active and love walks as much as dogs do. I make lists for organization and I love playing with my dog to keep her tail wagging and put a smile on her face! I would love to do the same for another. As a dog owner myself I understand the value in having a safe, comfortable, and fun space for your beloved pet. I get it, leaving your pet with someone new can be daunting but I’m here to make sure to give you a peace of mind. I handle everything from food, water, and play time with caution as if it were my own baby (dog).
“Samantha was wonderful. My dogs just took to her, they were comfortable and relaxed. She was attentive to my dogs while house sitting. She was also very communicative, and proactive. She reached out to see if she could give my dog medication due to thunder storms coming. She sent daily photos, reach out if anything didn't seem right with one of my dogs.”
About: Growing up we always had dogs in the house, from Chihuahuas to Labradors and I am the current proud parent to two cats! I have been a pet sitter for friends and family many times and I’m happy to give your pets the love and attention they need. I am working full-time Monday to Friday but I have relatively flexible hours and I am usually free on weekends. Evenings I am generally available. I’m committed to caring for your pet’s needs and will give them the same loving care I give all the animals in my life! I want your pets to be comfortable, happy, and safe. I am comfortable picking up your routine so you can be worry free.
About: I have experience caring for pets through both professional work and personal ownership. I currently provide dog walking and pet care through Wag!, where I’ve worked with dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, including senior dogs and more active breeds. I’ve also had the opportunity to build trust with repeat clients by providing dependable, compassionate care. As a proud cat mom to two cats, I understand the importance of patience, routine, and recognizing each pet’s unique personality. In addition, I’ve volunteered with a cat rescue, where I cared for cats with a wide range of temperaments, cleaned enclosures, socialized cats, and administered oral and topical medications when needed. I also spent a year working at a family-owned pet store that specialized in dogs, cats, and exotic animals, giving me hands-on experience with daily animal care and pet wellness. My goal is to provide every pet with a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while giving pet parents peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. Since I also drive, I’m able to reliably travel to visits, walks, and drop-ins. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to each week. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I believe pets feel happiest in their own home, so I take the time to learn their schedule, feeding routine, exercise needs, and any special instructions before each visit. I always ensure doors, gates, and harnesses are secure, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and playtime, and treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Jane was so amazing, caring and meticulous with caring for our 2 dogs (one of which is a senior dog). She sent us detailed updates, photos and videos which giving us peace of mind when we were away on vacation. She left our house cleaner than the way we left it. I am so happy we found a great caretaker for our pups after many failed attempts. Jane was our saving grace and we look forward to using her again! If you would like to hear more about our sit I'm happy to be a referral, she was that good!”

“Brigette did an amazing job watching my two dogs while I was away for a few days. We first met in person to assure she and my dogs were a good fit and along the way her communication was excellent. She watched my dogs in my home for 2 days/nights and from all the pictures and updates I could see my dogs were doing well and having a good time as well. Brigette put me at ease while I was away, knowing that my dogs were being taken care of by someone who truly took care of them like they were hers. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for someone for your pet care needs.”

“VANESSA is amazing! Thank you so much for taking care of Chase! She was very friendly, loves dogs, went above and beyond to make sure Chase was comfortable and taken care of while I was away. I appreciate you so much Vanessa!”


About: I have volunteered at 3 separate animal shelters for 10 years now and have always had pets in the home. I have 2 cats of my own. I’m a teacher in Freeport and live in Wantagh, so I have a flexible schedule outside of the school day. I’m available on weekends and school breaks, and I can often stop by before or after work (my workday is 9 AM–4 PM). I’m happy to work with your schedule to help keep your pet’s routine consistent and make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. I have a fenced-in yard and two sweet, friendly cats of my own. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. I always prioritize their safety, follow their owner’s instructions, and respect their individual needs and personalities. I also have a separate room in my home which can make sure your pet(s) will not interact with my cats unnecessarily.

Kerry is the absolute best. I have three large dogs and Kerry stays with them in my home for multiple days and nights. I never ever worry when I am away I know my dogs are in the best of care. She will send me pictures of my dogs cuddling with her. They all love her.

Victoria was wonderful with Pam! She sent sweet photos and updates throughout the stay, and it was clear Pam was comfortable and happy with her. She also went above and beyond with the house. When the upstairs toilet started running, she figured out the problem and fixed it herself. She was thoughtful, communicative, and honest about everything, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I'd absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone!

I cannot say enough about my experience with Kristen .. my anxious 6 year dog has never been left alone overnight . Three day wedding event ,Kristen was punctual, as Attentive as we are with Fletcher and followed all Instructions to the letter .. A diamond in the rough !!! Ty ty will definitely be using her again !

Amazing! Jenny jumped in for an overnight in a pinch and it proved to be the best thing for my pup. She was super engaged (walking him and playing fetch), very warm and sent frequent updates and pics. My pup was very happy and he's looking forward to seeing her again!

We’re very thankful for Gianna taking care of our girl on a last minute request. She was very accommodating! We have a dog who has some separation anxiety and Gianna followed our requests for her care well! She also came to meet us before our trip and we were thankful she was able to swing a home visit prior (and again so last minute!!). Thank you Gianna!!

Jessica did a great job taking care of our large, goofy dog and cats. She was a great communicator and kept us in the loop with photos and videos throughout her stay. We felt confident in leaving our pets and house under her care. We highly recommend her and will rebook with her when needed next time.

Amazing experience Allanis was great. We treat our dog like family and Allanis made us feel very comfortable. We feel great knowing we can count on her for when we don’t want to leave our pup alone. We are looking forward to booking her in the future. She is very friendly and a good caring person.

Howard is an extremely conscientious pet and house sitter. I was away for two weeks and came home to a well taken care of house and dog. Howard even cleaned up my plants and they look better under his care than mine. He is very communicative with lots of photos and responsive to any request I made of him. I highly recommend him and certainly he will be my go to sitter in the future. My thanks to Howard for taking such good care of my precious Oliver.

Nidia has been one of the best decision I could have made as a first time pet owner. My family and I went on vacation for 5 days and our King was treated as such!! A KING!! Nidia was very attentive. Gave great updates with pics and videos..and was very responsive. She is now a part of our family!! Nidia, my family and I are forever indebted to you! ❤️Thank you for loving him like we do!!
I can’t describe how grateful I am to Nicole. My husband and I went away for our wedding in Mexico and we had the best person we could’ve asked for to watch our boy Buddy Bear. She made it feel like we weren’t even gone and kept us updated all the time with photos. He absolutely loved her as much as we did. Thank you so much Nicole for everything!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Uniondale is $54 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $78 per night. 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 18,289 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Uniondale. 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 Uniondale 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 Uniondale 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 Uniondale 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
