She assured me and all my worries were over by the middle of the day before he was to be dropped off to her place of care. Pictures were sent throughout the day. My Little fur baby looked well taken care of and like he may not want to leave. 😊 awesome couple. I will utilize there stay again if needed. Or just for Stitch to have a play date. 😊 Ty. Guys.”

Go ahead and make that reservation.”

About: For the comfort and safety of every pup, I only host one family’s dog at a time. This allows me to give your dog my full attention and maintain a calm, low stress environment. My care goes beyond the basics. it’s rooted in genuine love and experience. My journey caring for Kayne, our special needs dog, taught me how to handle medical routines, provide comfort, and stay attentive to every detail. That experience shaped my approach to every pet I welcome. I understand that each animal deserves patience, respect, and love. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs a little extra care, they’ll always be treated like family in our home. We’re CPR and First Aid certified, giving you extra peace of mind while your pup is in our care. Pet care is woven into my daily life and something I genuinely love. As a stay at home mom, I’m home full time to give every furry friend constant love and attention. Our days revolve around walks, playtime, and snuggles. Caring for our late dog, Kayne, who developed a spinal injury and heart condition, taught me that true care takes patience, compassion, and adaptability qualities I bring to every pet I meet. In our home, every animal is treated like family. I provide a clean, safe, and active space with multiple walks, a fenced yard for play, and individualized routines. Through my experience caring for Kayne, who required special medical attention, I learned how to adapt to any level of care whether it’s energetic puppies or older companions needing extra comfort. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in loving, capable hands that treat them as one of our own.
“Toni and her husband took such good care of my dog Millie. Very reliable and flexible. She gave me updates every day with a picture and treated her as one of her family! Thank you and thanks for being so accomodating!”
“We only used family in the past to watch Milo, so we were a bit nervous. Cindy was by far excellent. She took good care of him, gave him love as if he was her own. We recommend her highly.”
“Bear was very comfortable with Yi and his family, which, puts me at ease. I will definitely recommend Yi AND I have every intention on using him again when my family head out of town.”
“Maria was wonderful and very caring with Molly and sent us videos, which made us feel at ease. Molly was so happy after spending time with Maria and their pup, she came back content and slept the rest of the day. We’ll definitely be reaching out to Maria again next time!”
“Jinay and her husband are the A-Team. We called them at the last moment and they were able to assist us in taking care of Cooper as always. He had a wonderful time and they kept us informed and he had a wonderful time! Very thankful for them!”
“Kathy was an amazing pet sitter. My dog stayed for three nights and had the best time playing with her sweet dog Ollie. Kathy was incredibly attentive and kind. My dog had hurt her leg prior to going over there and she even took the time to gently massage her leg ( after checking with me) It really meant a lot knowing my dog was so cared for uncomfortable. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kathy again and highly recommend her!”
“I had a great experience with Jeff watching my lab. He genuinely cares for your pet and is concerned with their well being. My dog is a senior and Jeff made sure he got the attention he deserved and went out of his way to make sure he was comfortable. Definitely recommend his service. Thank you!”

Cat caregivers near you - Ridge
About: Hey, I’m Janelle. Some people call me Nelly. I’ve grown up around all types of animals and just want to be an extra hand for anyone who needs someone reliable to watch their pets. I have a lot of experience with senior pets. I took care of my own cat who lived to be 20, and I still regularly help my sister out with her 18 yr old diabetic old lady cat, so I’m totally comfortable with daily medicine or specialized routines. I also really love being active and getting outside, so I'm always down to take your dogs out to get their energy out. Or even walking your cat if you are that type! I'll treat your pets like they're my own. Let me know if you need any help!
About: What sets me apart is that I'm a cat person through and through, with hands-on experience across different life stages — from raising my own cat over the past 7 years to caring for kittens, so I'm comfortable with the extra attention young cats need, like frequent feeding schedules, litter training, and kitten-proofing a space so curious little troublemakers stay safe. I understand feline routines and body language on a daily basis, not just during the occasional booking, and I can read subtle cues like changes in appetite, litter box habits, or hiding behavior that can signal something's off. I'm patient and low-key with cats who are shy or take time to warm up, and I stick closely to each cat's existing routine so they feel as little disruption as possible while their owner is away.
“Lisa and Michael are awesome! Even though our cat Sammi was always hiding when they came by, they assured us that she was eating and using the litter box by sending us photos of her food bowls and litter box. They are truly wonderful people and will definitely be using them again! Highly recommend! ❤️”
“Amanda was great with our kitties while we were away on vacation! She sent lots of updates with photos/videos and was very respectful of our space. Amanda went above and beyond during meal times as our kitties need to be separated and can be picky eaters. I would highly recommend Amanda for any of your pet care needs!”
“Stephanie is a reliable and super responsible dog sitter. We had to leave our dog for a week and knowing our dog was in the care of Stephanie really put us to ease. We are so grateful to her!”
About: I've always been such a huge animal lover and always took care of my own cats, dogs, guinea pigs and birds. I used to watch my family members pets when they would go away and feed them per special instructions and stayed with them as long as I could so they were never lonely. I work full time now but I make my own schedule! I'll be able to be reliable and work around the needs of anyone's babies! In my clients home I always have respect and take care of not only the pets but the home and property when I'm there always.
“Gerri took very good care of my cats during the week we were traveling. She is very friendly and love animals and my 2 cats liked her, too. I'll ask her again next time. Thank you for your support. And see you later. Thank you again!”
“Giana was fantastic! This was my first time using Rover and it was a last minute request, but she made the whole process smooth and easy. She even offered a meet and greet, and Malvin took to her immediately. Giana was incredibly attentive to Malvin, sent regular picture updates, and responded to my messages quickly. I highly recommend her to watch your fur baby and will definitely reach out to her again the next time I go away!”
About: I have my own home with a fenced in backyard, I love hiking and running the trails. I have 5 fur-nephews and nieces and haven’t met a dog that I haven’t befriended. I work a steady full time job at a bakery in the Holbrook costco so I am always home before dinner and I always smell delicious. I have a fully fenced in backyard with a back door access, I have also had my friends and family dogs in my household for extended periods with great success.
“Ashley is the most amazing and sweetest sitter. So thankful to meet her because she helped me very timely and with so much grace. Thor loves her so much. We can’t wait to work with her again.”
“Emily is a great petsitter. She did everything I need with patience. My two cats are not kind of cats that get close to strangers. But I can tell they love Emily. Will definitely contact Emily whenever I need a petsitter.”
“Samantha is the best! Sunny absolutely loved her! She also made sure to keep me updated with how sunny was doing with very send detailed updates of each visit everyday which kept me very much a”
About: Ever since I could remember, I have been caring for pets. Growing up in a farm-like home, with every anymore you could think of, from horses to ferrets, I have been in love with animals. They have been my life since I could remember. As a little girl my dream was to become a Veterinarian but the cards simply did not pan out. My schedule allows for some flexibility, but I do have a full time job that MAY sometimes interfere, hence the reason for the 3 day advanced notice, to allow me to coordinate or allow potential clients to find alternative sitter options. Our dogs run the house, we have a fenced in back yard as well as a half an acre fenced in horse coral that is currently not being utilized for its primary purpose, but being used so the fur babies have even more room to get some energy out.
About: I've taken care of multiple dogs and cats in my neighborhood. I watch dogs for my family and friends when they go away. I walk, feed, and play with their pets. I work part time, three days a week until 4 pm. I can walk dogs after work or any other day. I am available on the weekends. I currently do not accept boarding requests. When I am caring for dogs in their home I give them lots of love and attention and play. I take them on walks as needed or determined by their physical abilities. I am attentive and here to give your pet companionship!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Ridge
About: Animals have been a part of my life since childhood, and I'm surrounded by them every day. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, goats, rats and more. Every dog I've owned has been personally trained by me, giving me hands-on experience with behavior, structure, and individualized care.

Caring for horses, dogs, and cats is already a part of my daily routine, making pet care a natural part of my lifestyle.

I'm experienced in safely managing separate spaces if a dog prefers to be alone of is not dog-friendly, ensuring every pet gets plenty of personalized care, attention, and outdoor time.

“Jeff is more than a dog walker….he’s a dog whisperer. Henry learned so much in a matter of hours. If you are willing to be open to Jeff’s suggestions, even the most experienced dog owners will learn something new…getting a fresh perspective on handling our 150lb Great Dane pup was well worth the time! Thank you Jeff!”

About: Amo los animales con mi alma, los cuido como si fueran míos, les dedico tiempo, amor y respeto. Cada mascota es tan única como los seres humanos. Son mi pasatiempo favorito, mi escape a la felicidad. Me acomodo a sus gustos con respeto y tolerancia. Con paciencia, disciplina y amor siempre los haremos felices. Ellos nos aportan más de lo que nosotros podemos aportarle a ellos. Cada mascota es única, gustos, travesuras, costumbres, es por eso que acomodo a su tiempo y condición de espacio. Hora de comidas, horas de juego, caminatas y necesidades.
About: I am a professional dog walker and pet sitter with over twenty years of hands on experience caring for animals. I recently moved to Suffolk County, New York from the Upper West Side of Manhattan after closing my small business in the city. Long Island has been an amazing change for us and we truly love being here. Animals have always been a huge part of my life and have shaped my career for more than two decades. Now that I work from home, I find myself really missing the daily connection with pets. I am certified in pet grooming and have experience in animal behavior as well as light training. I love teaching dogs fun tricks like giving kisses and building trust with them through patience and consistency. I also have experience working as a veterinary technician and receptionist, which has given me a strong understanding of animal health and communication with pet owners. I still maintain several wonderful clients from my time in Manhattan and I am excited to grow my services here in Suffolk County and meet new dogs and their families. About This Sitter Animals have always been my passion for as long as I can remember. I never imagined how far this path would take me, but I truly cannot picture myself doing anything else. Caring for pets feels natural and rewarding to me, and I am grateful every day to be part of their lives. Why I Love Dog Sitting I have loved dogs since the first time I was able to have one of my own. The more I learn about different breeds and personalities, the more my appreciation grows. Every dog has its own temperament and charm, and getting to know them is one of my favorite parts of this work. Meet My Pets In loving memory of Miah. Jenna is currently my active little companion. They are two beautiful Chihuahuas who have filled my life with joy and laughter. About My Home We live in a small four bedroom house in Coram with a backyard that offers space for fresh air and outdoor time. My Experience Administering Medication Yes. I am comfortable giving oral medications only. Pet care fits into my routine very naturally because I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I am available most weekdays and weekends, especially afternoons and evenings. Since I am home often, I can provide consistent attention, walks, feeding schedules, and check ins without rushing. I live in a small four bedroom home in Coram with a backyard where dogs can safely get fresh air and supervised outdoor time. Inside the home, pets are never left unattended for long periods and I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I have over twenty years of experience working with animals, including veterinary office experience, so I am very observant of behavior changes and health concerns. I also have one senior toothless small house dog who is gentle and used to other pets, but I always introduce animals slowly and respectfully based on their comfort level.
“Jennifer is amazing!! It’s my first time using Rover for my puppy and she put all my nerves at ease. She sent daily pictures and updates which I really appreciated. Noodle can’t wait to go back! Thank you again Jennifer!”
About: I have hands-on experience working with animals through both therapy dog work and my previous experience as an assistant to a veterinary technician. This has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and how to handle pets with care, patience, and confidence. I’m comfortable supporting pets with different needs and always focus on making them feel safe, calm, and well cared for. Working from home allows me to be a consistent, calming presence for your pet throughout the day whether at my home or yours. I truly enjoy spending that time with them—whether it’s going on walks, giving them attention, or just being nearby so they don’t feel alone. I know every pet is different, so I follow their lead and make sure they feel comfortable and secure, whether they’re full of energy or prefer a more relaxed, quiet routine. I keep your pet’s routine consistent while providing attentive care, companionship, and a calm presence. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet time, I adapt to their needs and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I am also a photographer which could lead to getting some great photos while you are away!

About: Hi! I'm Cat, and it is my literal pleasure to care for your dog, cat, lizard, bunny, or parrot! What you can expect from me: -Fast, clear, and concise executive-level communication. -Deep breed-specific knowledge of behavior underpinned by my time as a vet receptionist -High quality photos -Easy, flexible scheduling -Complete focus and attention to detail -Genuine joy and enthusiasm to care for your pet In my previous life, I was a design program manager within corporate tech (Meta, Comcast, Pinterest), and I'm thrilled and privileged to pivot into pet care. I have cared for dogs of every size, flavor, and temperament. I have extensive experience training dogs, and quite frankly, I've watched a whole lot of Westminster dog show. In particular, I have specialized experience with shy or nervous dogs and will provide them the space and understanding needed to relax and feel comfortable. I am happy to walk or jog to help burn canine energy. Not afraid to get down in the dirt and play! I have been deeply involved in cat rescue since 2020, when I began working remotely. I have fostered dozens of cats over the years. This includes kittens with complex medical issues. I am very capable at medicating cats and kittens as well as identifying when a cat may be feeling unwell. When you board with me, your pet will not be left alone for more than 1 hour. I only board pets from one household at a time and provide dedicated personal care. When your baby is at my house, they are family. Feel free to reach out with any additional questions. I'm currently working remotely doing project-based contract work, so I have plenty of availability and scheduling flexibility. If boarding or house-sitting, I will be fully available and no pet will be left alone longer than an hour. I have a friendly chihuahua mix (8 lbs) and 2 cats, but if needed, I have plenty of room to give everyone their own space. I have an unfenced backyard with plenty of room to romp. Dogs will always be leashed or tethered in yard.
“Cindy was absolutely wonderful! We stayed over Fourth of July weekend while we were in town for a wedding, and she made our experience so welcoming from start to finish. She was incredibly friendly, responsive, and genuinely cared about making sure our pup was well cared for. Traveling with a dog can sometimes be stressful, but Cindy made us feel completely at ease and was so kind and accommodating. If you’re looking for someone who goes above and beyond, communicates well, and truly cares about your dog, I can’t recommend Cindy enough.”

About: Hey, I’m Janelle. Some people call me Nelly. I’ve grown up around all types of dogs my whole life and love being around them. I just want to be an extra hand for anyone who needs someone reliable to watch or walk their pups.I really love being active and getting outside, so I'm always down to take your dogs out for a good walk or run to keep them entertained and get their energy out. I'm also totally happy to just hang out on the couch, brush them out, or give them some good belly rubs if they're more of a couch potato.I'll treat your dogs like they're my own. Let me know if you need any help! I’m currently working part-time and from home, so I have a flexible schedule that can work around yours if needed.

Whether you need a midday check-in, a quick walk, or someone to hang out with them while you're at work, I have plenty of open windows to make it happen. I only watch pets at the client’s house, I don’t do any boarding at my own place.

“Unfortunately with my job they’ve been making me work 12 hour days… I am so thankful for the help that you have given me! Lola is my baby and has been by my side for nine years! Thank you for making this process so much easier!!!”
“Julia went above and beyond to accommodate our very socially anxious dog. He’s always extremely excited to see her again, she stayed with him to calm him down when he was howling out of loneliness, she always replies quickly, and she’ll even bake cookies for the owners. Best experience we’ve had on this app”
“Kurt walked Henry and Hudson every day for 6 weeks and was amazing with them. They are farm dogs most of the year and not perfect on a leash. But within a day or two with Kurt they became model citizens ! They looked forward to their time with him every day. Kurt was 100% reliable and really a pleasure to see every day. 5 stars!”
“James was a great fit for Ivy. She like him immediately. He is prompt, goes above and beyond and my pup truly enjoyed the midday walks which worked well for my schedule that week. Would highly recommend!”

“Amanda is absolutely conscientious and dependable, but what REALLY shines is the calm demeanor and gentle nature that won over our old but still a bit rambunctious Mac immediately. Dogs always seem to know who to trust and he wasn't wrong. Sad to see her go, but we'll most definitely hire her again!”
About: Hi there! I’m Adrianna (or Adi for short), and I believe that pets aren't just animals—they are family. I know how stressful it can be to leave your best friend behind, which is why my goal is to provide a nurturing environment filled with belly rubs, long walks, and endless love. Whether we are playing fetch or cuddling up for an afternoon nap, your pet’s happiness, safety, and comfort will always be my top priority. I am always open to discussing any additional support that your pet may need. I am currently employed but mostly work from home, so my schedule is flexible and can work around any pet’s needs—provide an extra walk, an extra cuddle session: you name it! I have a large fenced in yard that provides my animals with safe spaces for exercise. I also have a pet water fountain inside the home to promote hydration especially during the summer months. My pets always get a breakfast and dinner, though each is tailored to their specific dietary needs. Playtime is a must in my household, and my pets always receive interactive stimulation to keep their minds and bodies healthy.

About: As a lifelong animal lover and pet parent to four rescue dogs, I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every animal as if they were my own. I have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs, including my 14-year-old blind Boston Terrier, which has given me patience, compassion, and an understanding of the extra care some pets require. I am also comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to help pets stay happy, healthy, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves playtime, long walks, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their usual routine, my goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I work full-time at a local high school as the Principal’s Secretary, with regular hours ending at 1:30 PM during the school year and 1:00 PM during the summer, which allows me plenty of time for afternoon, evening, and overnight pet care. I am available for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, medication administration, and companionship before and after work, and I am happy to provide overnight stays when needed so your pets can maintain their routine and have company for longer periods of time. Weekends are generally wide open, allowing me to dedicate even more time and attention to your pets. My goal is always to provide dependable, loving care that gives both you and your pets peace of mind while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, administer medications if needed, and make sure pets get the exercise, playtime, and attention they’re used to receiving. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I adjust my care to fit their individual needs and personality. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special instructions you provide. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, while also giving you peace of mind through dependable and attentive care.
About: Hello, I’m Hailey! I’m currently earning my post graduate hours as a mental health counselor. The field can be pretty heavy and demanding, so doing things that bring genuine joy and rejuvenate you is so important. I love animals and I love spending time outside, so walking dogs is like the best of both worlds. It gives me the opportunity to be present, grounded, and be involved in my community. It is also rough out here being pre licensed, so anything extra helps. I’ve owned dogs all of life; I’ve had 6 dachshunds this far, so I have experience with dogs of all ages. Additionally, I’ve also been dog sitting for my relatives throughout the years. While my dogs are teenie tiny, I’ve walked medium and larger dogs before. Breed experience is as follows: dachshunds, Irish terrier, border collies, a husky, and a mastiff. Behaviors I’ve dealt with include anxiety, reactivity, and resource guarding. My most recent edition to my family guards and is very much a “my way or the highway” kind of dog. That being said, I’ve done a lot of research on dog behaviors and try to be mindful of their needs and body language. I have a background in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and learned a lot about conditioning and reinforcement in my years of education. I’m in no way a dog trainer, but I know when to reward desired behaviors and when not to reward. I prefer to stick to dog walking since my schedule outside of Rover is pretty demanding. I’d still be more than happy to help feed and give medications if needed. Thank you for taking the time to view my profile. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your best furry friends! While my schedule is fairly demanding outside of River, my days off from my other job are very open. I’d be open to providing services on Thursdays and Sundays :) I will ensure that any gates are closed and that I keep a watchful eye on your pet when they’re in your backyard. Please let me know if there are any areas that are off limits or if they are reactive to sounds/neighbors/rodents. I’m very careful with my own dogs and will give the same respect and care towards your pets.
About: I have been an animal lover all my life! I enjoy caring for other people’s animals which I have been doing for over five years, along with four years working in a doggy day care and six years as a vet assistant. I have been with one specific dog family for the past 9 years and even helped the dog give birth! I am also well versed in and enjoy reptiles as well as aquatic animals! Nothing is more special to me than the joy animals bring into my life and the way they can make you see the brighter side of things while still being able to have fun. I am also able and certified to administer medication and give injections if needed. I have the experience, knowledge, and the heart to give your animal the best care they need. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet, even just for a little while. I want to make it easier for all the pet owners to focus on their vacation or outings without the added stress. You will never be disappointed with my services. My goal is to keep you and your animal happy at all times! I am available all day at any time and would love to help out with any needs you require! Hope to hear from you soon! I am always careful when it comes to your pets. I make sure they are as comfortable as possible with me when you’re not home!
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and have rescued and cared for several over the years. Caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy and take seriously. I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, large breeds, anxious dogs, and pets with medical needs, including administering oral medications and injections. My wife is a great support and shares the same passion for animals. She’s a marine biologist and she's worked in animal hospitals, farms, and wildlife rehabilitation centers, adding another layer of knowledge and experience to the care we provide. I believe every dog is unique, so I take the time to understand their personality, routine, preferences, and any special needs to help them feel comfortable and at home. I’m an Athletic Trainer and have Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays off. My wife has a flexible work schedule and is home most of the time. Between the two of us, someone is almost always home, so dogs are rarely left alone for more than two hours. Because I only accept a limited number of dogs at a time, each guest receives plenty of individualized attention, playtime, affection, and care throughout the day. My home is quiet, fully fenced, and designed to help dogs feel safe and comfortable. There are no children or resident pets, allowing me to provide a calm environment and plenty of one-on-one attention. Dogs are welcome on the furniture, have clean dog beds throughout the house, and can even sleep with us if that’s what they’re used to at home. I send daily photo and video updates, and you’re always welcome to message me anytime. Several veterinary hospitals and clinics are within a 5-minute drive if veterinary care is ever needed.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was very little, I have grown up around animals from having my own dogs and cat to being the neighborhood's trusty petsitter. I have had my own clients since I was 10 years old and have been building trust and my love for animals since then. I also have experience in two different kennels and boarding centers so I am aware of communication patterns especially in scared and nervous pets. I am very familiar with pets of all ages from puppies to senior care and administering medication. I am here to make everyone feel comfortable with their pet care! To bring love to the animals and comfort to the owners! My life revolves around animals, I cannot live without them. I see my kitten daily and she is the light of my life.

I believe pets feel most comfortable in their own environment where they can fully be themselves. I love caring for pets in their own space, that way I can maintain their safety and stress.

About: For the comfort and safety of every pup, I only host one family’s dog at a time. This allows me to give your dog my full attention and maintain a calm, low stress environment. My care goes beyond the basics. it’s rooted in genuine love and experience. My journey caring for Kayne, our special needs dog, taught me how to handle medical routines, provide comfort, and stay attentive to every detail. That experience shaped my approach to every pet I welcome. I understand that each animal deserves patience, respect, and love. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs a little extra care, they’ll always be treated like family in our home. We’re CPR and First Aid certified, giving you extra peace of mind while your pup is in our care. Pet care is woven into my daily life and something I genuinely love. As a stay at home mom, I’m home full time to give every furry friend constant love and attention. Our days revolve around walks, playtime, and snuggles. Caring for our late dog, Kayne, who developed a spinal injury and heart condition, taught me that true care takes patience, compassion, and adaptability qualities I bring to every pet I meet. In our home, every animal is treated like family. I provide a clean, safe, and active space with multiple walks, a fenced yard for play, and individualized routines. Through my experience caring for Kayne, who required special medical attention, I learned how to adapt to any level of care whether it’s energetic puppies or older companions needing extra comfort. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in loving, capable hands that treat them as one of our own.
