“The best sitter to book with! Xiaoying and her family are excellent and truly the sweetest! I had an overnight cat sitting service with them for a 7 nights and they sent me daily photos and videos and made sure to keep me updated! They also brought so many toys, a cat tree, and cat hideaway spots for my cat. My cat Lucki didn’t want to leave he really liked it there and it’s like his second home now😊 will definitely be rebooking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a pet sitter or boarding service! ❤️”
“Just an incredible experience. Michelle was a pleasure to have dog sit Hero. She sent tons of pictures and videos and also gave Hero a bath! I would recommend her to anyone. 10/10.”
“Vanessa and her family were very caring and accommodating toward my dog. She was immediately comfortable and treated like a queen the entire stay. Would absolutely recommend and, if I were not moving, would make her my first choice for dog boarding.”
“My dog literally came back home so tired from having fun. He received excellent treatment he had another dog to play with (which was great to wear him out) I was sent multiple pics throughout the day letting me know that Ac was in excellent care. I will use them again and again 🙏🏽”

“Yessenia was absolutely lovely to work with. She answered any questions we had as first time Rover customers in order to put us at ease. We could see from the first interaction that she would be kind to our dog, as she immediately got down and gave her hand to the dog to sniff and then pet her. She has a daughter with a sweet and gentle personality, who kindly shared her own blanket with the dog to make the dog feel more comfortable. Yessenia‘s husband was friendly and pleasant as well. Yessenia sent us multiple pictures and updates over the weekend while she watched the dog. Though we brought some supplies, she was also prepared with her own if necessary. Furthermore, since Yesenia had already experienced life with a senior dog, she offered us some suggestions that might help with our pup. Our Rusty had never been cared for by a stranger up to this point. It was hard for us to leave her. That said, we would not only highly recommend Yessenia and her family to other dog owners, we will definitely reach out to Yessenia again if we need someone to board the dog. She even included a lovely note about the experience. Her thoughts were genuine, and it was nice for us to be reminded about the beauty of our dog whom we see every day.”
“Michael was great with our 4 month old French bulldog. He Helped to keep the pup on our feeding and potty habits/schedule. Updated with daily photos and texts. Was kind and patient as was obvious in our dogs behavior. She was playful and eating. Her environment was clean and safe. Would definitely use again.”
“It was our first time ever leaving our dog with a sitter. We were very nervous about it, but Sonia and her family made sure to send us videos and photos of her every day and constantly kept us updated on the well being of our Ginger! They welcomed her with open arms and made her feel right at home immediately . Thank you so much for taking such great care of our baby!”
“Tanu is so wonderful. She took excellent care of Clover and he didn’t want to leave her until she walked him to the car to say goodbye. Thank you for spoiling my baby!”
“Alba is fantastic and very caring! CC really enjoyed her time with her and Tony. She sent over several pictures and videos of CC playing and relaxing at her house, which made the whole experience of having to leave her so much less stressful!! Thank you and CC is looking forward to her next visit!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every dog I look after. I treat them like my own—with love, patience, and respect for their routines. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, and I’m comfortable with both puppies and senior dogs. I understand that each dog has its own personality and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe and happy in my care. Since I’m not currently a dog owner, I pour all my energy and affection into the dogs I sit for. I also have a fenced yard, which gives dogs a secure place to play and relax. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always keep pet parents updated so they can feel confident while they’re away. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, and I make time for it on weekends and some weekday evenings. I’m usually available on weekends for boarding and daycare, and with advance notice, I can provide walks or care after 5:00 PM during the week. Since I don’t currently have a dog of my own, spending time with pets through Rover gives me the chance to enjoy their company and provide the attention they deserve. It’s something I look forward to fitting into my weekly routine, and I always plan my schedule carefully to give each dog quality care and attention. When caring for dogs in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I live in a house with a fenced yard, so dogs have a secure space to play and get fresh air. I stick to their usual routines as closely as possible—feeding, walking, playtime, and rest—based on their owner’s instructions. I keep a calm, clean environment and always give plenty of love and attention. For walks and weekend daycare, I focus on making the experience fun and stress-free. I tailor walks to each dog’s energy level and needs, whether it’s a quick potty break or a longer walk for exercise. I also pay close attention to leash safety, weather conditions, and staying in familiar areas unless otherwise requested. Whether in my home or out and about, your dog’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority.
“Ollie had a great stay with Alissa! She was very communicative and Ollie seemed to have a great time. Very conveniently located near the Hicksville train station. Would happily book with her again.”
“I had a great experience with Tina! She took the time to meet Summer on short notice before taking care of her. She sent pictures and updates twice a day and I could tell Summer had a great time. She also has a fenced backyard where Summer enjoyed playing fetch and getting her zoomies out. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“When I left Hartley at Karina's she was definitely nervous, but I felt confident she would be okay. Over the next few days Harley had a really rough time, but Karina kept me appraised about everything that was going on, and worked with me to find solutions for her anxiety. I felt a thousand times better knowing even though she was super stressed, Karina spent every second keeping her as calm as possible and making the situation as good for her as possible. I would highly recommend leaving an animal in her loving care with no reservations. She was amazing for my dog and for me.”
“Nachay was so amazing! She took such good care of my petunia while I was away on vacation! She even had her friends bring doggies over to play with petunia!! She stayed in constant contact with me sending updates, pics and videos. From the moment we met at the meet and greet I knew Nachay would be amazing and take amazing care of my baby. Thank you so much for caring for my little girl and taking such amazing care of her like she was your own! I will definitely ask her to watch petunia anytime I need!!”
“We had a unique situation that lead us to Eric and he was incredibly accommodating. I forgot my dog's bed and he was able to provide one. He took great care of our shepherd and sent us several photos to show us our dog was doing just fine. Eric is a super nice guy to boot! Would highly recommend!”
“Kortney it's accommodated us last minute and took exceptional care of CoCo & Max. Updated us with pictures and kept us in the loop with any questions or concerns. Thanks again!”

I approach pet care with a quiet, steady energy.

About: I've cared for cats of all kinds since I was 10. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to check in on their cats, feed them, clean litter boxes, play with them, and give them plenty of attention. I understand that every cat has a different personality—some want to play and interact, while others prefer a little space and quiet companionship. I take the time to learn what makes each cat comfortable, happy, and well cared for.

“Samantha was so great with Ofelia. I have a moody cat and she was so patient and sweet to her. She would be on time every visit and send me pictures every single time. Quick to respond and super responsable. She even went above and beyond on many other things. Can’t recommend her enough 🫶🏼🐱”

“Ozzy was an amazing sitter for my four cats! My girlfriend and I felt at ease while away visiting family knowing that he was checking in on our cats, and even giving my diabetic cat his meds. All the cats loved Ozzy and I would highly recommend booking with him!”
About: I have had (and loved) cats ever since I can remember. I currently have two cats in my home, one tabby and one black cat. I would consider myself to be as much of a cat person as I am a dog person. I have played with cats, fed them (both wet and dry food), and have cleaned litter boxes as well! I hope you can trust me to watch your kitty :)
About: I looked at cats like I looked at the cool kids at school; I desperately wanted the approval but I didn't want them to know that. How could such aloof creatures be so cool?! Someone at work brought in kittens from a litter nearby, and I instantly bonded with the tiny one that crawled into my lap named Bear. Suddenly I loved all cats, and have had the pleasure to share my time on Earth with 3 amazing little spirits. My calm demeanor seems to help me be recognized as "cat trustworthy" as a friend once pointed out. I think sometimes that - and a love of all animals - is all you need.
About: Hello, my name is Matt. I have owned two cats so far, Pretty Kitty a Calico when I was under Ten Years Old, and Waffle a Russian Blue since Sixteen to Twenty Six. I enjoy cats the most with how calm and quiet they are, and how warm they can be once they trust you and feel comfortable enough to be around.
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and have cared for pets of all kinds throughout my life. From daily walks to playtime and cuddles, I’m dedicated to making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while in my care. Your furry friends will get the attention and care they deserve! I am a full time college student, with a part time job. But have plenty of time throughout my day/morning and nighttime where I would love to have some furry friend time! I respect the home of the pet just as much as the furry friend! It is important to have someone you can rely on when trusting them alone in your home with your furry family members! I am responsible and able to maintain boundaries to respect my clients!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Hempstead
“Michele was very accommodating as we needed a last last minute sitter and the pick up time wasn’t finalized. She was flexible and very easy to work with I’ll definitely work with her again when I’m in the area!”
“Vanessa was so kind to take in Teddy on a last minute notice for the day. She was super responsive and flexible, and Teddy looked like he had a great time! We will for sure be booking with Vanessa again. Thank you!!!”
“Django is always happy to go to Joanna. She takes great care of him and receiving pictures throughout the day showing what Django is doing makes me feel great knowing that he is being well cared for. I highly recommend Joanna to care for your bestie.”

“Karina took great of our Cali so we could enjoy a day in the City. She sent regular pictures and updates throughout the day. It was a great experience for Cali and us.”
About: I have been living with a dog (at one time with 3) since 2010. We recently said goodbye to our lab/retriever mix and are not quite yet ready to adopt a dog again but we miss having a dog around. As a pet parent I understand how stressful it can be finding reliable care and finding someone who will love your dog as much you do. It can also be tough when you find out you have to work late and will need someone to come to your rescue to let your baby out and feed them. When I’m not walking dogs, I’m taking care of my human children (who also love dogs) which means I have a somewhat flexible schedule, and I spend a lot of time outdoors. We have always found lots of fun outdoor bonding opportunities everywhere we have lived with our dog. We both love being outside and being active and I would love to share this hobby with your dog too! I am a full time mom to two school aged children. I have reliable blocks of availability for the most part. I am in and out during the day and my husband works from home a lot of the time as qell. We’re very big on walks, dog parks, fetch (our sweet pup was inexhaustible and could play fetch for hours), and my kids practically live in our yard so I’m outdoors a lot when I’m home. When caring for a pet in a client’s home, I follow the care instructions given by the pet parent.
About: For quite a few years I’ve taken care of dogs for family members, families all over Long Island and never disappointed! I’ve loved dogs all my life and still do. They’re honestly like family to me and I always treat my family with care, respect and love which is what a dog needs. I also have 2 dogs of my own and they is just the best thing that happened to me honestly and that’s why I’m working for this company because I’ve found something that I could work for and love doing what I do at the same time. I treat every dog like they’re mine! Every dog that has been to my house they are treated like our family, care for every one of them. I am home full time! Sometimes I go out to run a few errands which means I put the dogs in a crate but my mother works from home 2 days out of the week so if she’s there, she’ll keep them out and moving around on their own! Other than that, I am very free! Other than that, they will be taken great care of by me. In my home I have a huge clean yard that runs through the back, side and front it is fenced so the dogs could run freely around for daily exercise. I also love to walk so if your dog also loves to, we will definitely be a great match! I have two dogs of my own that’ll keep your lovely dog(s) company. They are very playful and welcoming, one is 6 years old and the other one is 5 years old, with all their shots and up to date with all doctor appointments. This is a smoke free house also. Your baby will be happy & safe here!
About: Hi, I’m Kim! I’m a longtime dog mom with 10 years of pet care experience, and I know how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your dog. I specialize in caring for small to medium dogs up to 40 lbs in my home, where they’ll receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and personalized care. I’m a proud dog mom myself, so I understand that every pup has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. After years of traveling for work and searching for reliable pet care for my own dogs, I decided to provide the kind of experience I always wanted to find: a safe, loving, home-away-from-home where pet parents can feel completely comfortable while they’re away. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, routines, medications or special instructions, and I’m happy to send regular photos and updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pup is happy and well cared for. Your dog won’t just be a booking — they’ll be treated like part of the family. 🐶❤️ I have a very flexible schedule and spend much of my time at home, which allows me to give your pup plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, daycare, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of one-on-one care. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods, and I’m happy to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. Every day is tailored to your dog’s personality and routine. We’ll start with a morning potty break or walk, followed by breakfast and some time to relax. Throughout the day, your pup can enjoy supervised yard time, walks, playtime, cuddles, enrichment, and plenty of attention. There’s also lots of downtime for naps and lounging around the house. Dinner, an evening walk or outdoor break, and some relaxing time round out the day before bedtime.
About: My family and I all love animals, so we applied to be pet's sitters at home care. We have a independent house with a yard, and there will always be someone at home 24 hours a day. The pets can move freely at home without too many restrictions. We have regularly clean to the house to ensure the clean and hygiene environment for all pets. I have over a year of experience in taking care of cats and over six years of experience in taking care of dogs. The longest time I took care of a cat was for two months. At the beginning, the cat would hide under the sofa for a week, but lately he became completely unrestrained and would lie on the bed together, play hide-and-seek with me, and explore every corner of the house. When the weather was good, the dogs could play freely in the yard. Welcome all cats and dogsto my home, we are the best friends of your pets! We can keep daily routine for all pet's. I am working part-time on weekends and I will come back at 4PM , but my family members are off on weekends. And my family members and I take care of all pets together. We have a independent house with a yard, and there will always be someone at home 24 hours a day. The pets can move freely at home without too many restrictions. We have regularly cleaning to the house to ensure the clean and hygiene environment for all pets. When the weather was good, the dogs could play freely in the yard.
“We really appreciated and not being able to take our Sofie so last minute. She was very pleasant and friendly. Her accommodations were clean and orderly. Sofie took to her right away. I know that if I’m in the area, she is the person I will call!”
“I will start off by stating Pamela truly a magnetic bubbly human being, her energy alone made me feel safe leaving Keanu in her care. Keanu he felt right at home immediately, and there was an instantaneous connection. Her home is immaculate, a great dog setting which in turn is 100% inviting for all pups. She is a gem and so is her animal loving hubby Jose. The countless videos, pictures are perfect and just makes me feel comfortable throughout his stay with Pamela. She shares her nutritious food and treats and he actually ate well (mini poodle picky eater). You will not be disappointed she is a true animal lover....her vibrant energy begins at her door and just elevates the owner and doggie like magic. Keanu is now a repeat daycare client and would have zero concerns when I need boarding. Thank you PAMELA”
“Cynthia was great with my senior dog Lulu. Finding someone trustworthy and experienced to watch a senior dog can be stressful, but Cynthia gave me complete peace of mind. She was attentive, patient, and communicative. Highly recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter!”
“It’s always a good sign when Charlie pulls on his lead to get into the sitter’s house. He seems to have enjoyed himself which makes us feel good leaving him with Kristie.”
“I am new to the area and needed someone to watch my puppy as I was moving. Gloria was amazing. She kept me updated and my puppy came back so happy and also so excited to see Gloria. Definitely will be back! Thank you Gloria and Jose!”

“Eric took such wonderful care of my 7 lb dog, Shelby! Shelby is a small pup who needs a lot of extra love and attention, and Eric made sure she felt safe, cozy, and completely showered with affection the entire time. I was updated regularly and had total peace of mind knowing Shelby was in such gentle, caring hands. It can be so hard to find someone you trust, but Eric went above and beyond. We will definitely be rebooking!”
“Tina was so awesome to work with! She watched our super high energy 2 year old lab mix (Kenzie) for daycare at her home.

About: I’ve had pets since I was little! I have experience with a variety of temperaments and needs in dogs and cats. My dog at home is a rescue who has some fear and anxiety-related issues, and I have become very comfortable with dogs who need a little bit extra attention and care to be able to come out of their shells. I work late afternoon to evening most days, so I have daytime availability. Before going to work, I love to take walks on my own! I have a fenced-in yard with plenty of space for dogs to run around. I have two cats and one dog who get along well with other animals.
About: Experience with over 7 dogs from puppy to adulthood and numerous cats. I have trained 5 dogs. Over the years I have cared for many cats. Feeding, walking, home care, and giving medicine.

“Stella is always so happy to see Michael ! Always on time and able to handle her puppy energy. He even took her out on Thanksgiving in the rain since I am out of town. I am so glad to have him around when I have to go away for a while, it is always a pleasure working with him!”
“Xaria was wonderful with our dog Bones. She communicated everything from the start, met for a meet and greet, was very prompt. We will be booking her in the future. Very happy with her service. Thank you Xaria!”
“Alexis was amazing with our new puppy who is still learning how to walk, not jump, etc. She was always patient and willing to be flexible if our pup wouldn’t walk, playing with him in the yard instead. She is reliable and on time. We highly recommend Alexis!”
About: I have had pet cats and dogs for most of my life, have been focused on taking care of them as soon as I became 12. I have had cats, dogs, fish, all with varying health conditions. I know how to feed a pet pills, when to, how to keep a schedule for them, to care for them with love, spend time with them, and just to be around to help them. My Chocolate Labrador I had suffered from an enlarged esophagus, she had to eat in a specific way or she wouldn't keep down her food. She lived long and happy, even though most vets said to put her down when she was a puppy. I do not give up on a pet that wants to live, and will work happily to care and recuperate it. My current pet, a Russian Blue cat, has a problem with his thyroid, where he has to be given a pill every dinner and breakfast. I am able to sneak the pill easily into his food so he can eat it easily. I keep a tight schedule in feeding him that doesn't intrude on my other work or chores. I have driven my cat from veterinarians office to my home on several occasions, including my dog, and always drive easy and comfortable so that my pets won't get worried on the trip, or get tossed around. I even go on test drives for my cat so he gets comfortable in a moving car and doesn't worry about where he is going. I treat my pets with care, love and respect, and I treat my job entirely important and work as if I was working for myself. I will follow any and every rule you set for your pet, and treat them as my own. If you need me to drive them, walk them, care for them with medicine, their is nothing I won't be able to do for you and your pet.
About: I’ve had my dog for 6 years now. Since getting her I have taken care of her by feeding her, taking her on walks, spending time with her in general, and being the sole care taker when my family is away. I also worked at a pet supplies store for 9 months, only leaving to go to college. There I learned about what dogs and cats need in general as well as got experience interacting with the many different types of dogs when they entered the store. There I met a dog, Neo, who I got to know when I became there dog walker. It gave me experience in walking a dog and getting to know a dog that wasn’t my own. I’m excited at the prospect of working for you and your dog or cat. Animals are truly some of the best things the world has to offer and I promise to do my absolute best to take care of them! I am a full time student. I have availability on Thursday evenings, Fridays, and the weekend! I will have Monday and Wednesday availability starting on November 3rd. The most important part is making sure the dog is safe, for me this means making sure the dog doesn’t have access to anything that could be harmful, as well as when taking the dog on walks having the harness fully on in the correct manner and being on the lookout for other dogs/cars/and anything else that could potentially cause danger. That being said it is also important that I care for the dog by spending time with them, giving them treats(based on the owner’s preference), and petting them.
“I am very thankful for Karina’s availability to walk my dog twice a day on New Years’ Eve. She was very communicative throughout the whole day and fed my dog per my request. My doggy was very calm for the rest of the night and I think he really enjoyed the walks and time with Karina. She even brought in my package inside since it was raining! Thank you so much! I look forward to requesting Karina in the future when I have long events!”
About: I have been taking care of my own dog since the year he was born, six years ago. I was 12 at that time and helped with walking my dog, and feeding him, also playing with him and keeping him entertained and feel loved. I am currently unemployed so I have plenty of time to take care of my dog and play with him every day. I walk my dog in the morning, afternoon, and evening. I do more of walking dogs but I could care for the dogs in the clients home. I play with the dogs, walk them whenever needed, and pay attention to them so they feel loved.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats for as long as I can remember!!!! My family and I absolutely adore animals. I have two cats who are my babies, and I’ll care for your pets just like they’re part of my family too! I’m currently in grad school going once a week to campus, so I have so much time to play and take care of your babies! I’m available weekday morning and weekends. I live in a small but cozy apartment , I have a really nice fenced park near me to take your babies out to play!
About: I've always loved dogs since I was little but never actually had one. On a drive up to my dad's job, is when my birthday wishes had finally come true. My dad and I had rescued my dog, Ebby, from a busy nearby highway and since that day my love for dogs has grown even more. All I've ever wanted to do was make them as happy as they made me. I've owned my dog for nearly 10 years now and our bond is still strong, even after my four years spent up at college. I look forward to walking a bunch of dogs using this Rover app and I am also willing to take them on little runs if it's okay with the owners!

“When I left Hartley at Karina's she was definitely nervous, but I felt confident she would be okay. Over the next few days Harley had a really rough time, but Karina kept me appraised about everything that was going on, and worked with me to find solutions for her anxiety. I felt a thousand times better knowing even though she was super stressed, Karina spent every second keeping her as calm as possible and making the situation as good for her as possible. I would highly recommend leaving an animal in her loving care with no reservations. She was amazing for my dog and for me.”

If you need someone to take care of your dog, call Judy. Thanks Judy for taking good care of duke.”
