About: I grew up taking care of dogs, both my own and those of friends and family. I work from home full time and will give your pup all my love and attention. I am sensitive to the needs of different pups and will cater to the needs of your pup accordingly! I will treat your pup as if they were my own. I work from home full time and set my own hours so I would be very flexible to work around the needs of your pup. I can provide walks and pee breaks for your pup every few hours. I live in a townhome with plenty of space indoors and lots of greenery outside.

“Michelle has been fantastic. My dog is a rescue and often takes a bit of time to warm up to new people. Michelle was so patient with him and continues to provide the highest level of care for him. Michelle is very responsive and always communicates before and after the visit. I’d highly recommend Michelle to help care for your pets!”

About: Hey there! My wife (Sam) and I (Jen) are an animal-loving couple, and looking for a new way to spend our afternoons with some furry friends. Our days can be pretty flexible as Sam and I both work from home, and we thought what better way to earn a little extra cash while doing something we're both passionate about! We both have a decent amount of experience caring for both dogs and cats! Pablo (9 years) and Boots (8 years) are our two ever-loving boy cats that we adore a little too much. Sam and I grew up with dogs, and also frequently dog sit for our neighbors and friends. We'd love to have the opportunity to meet your fur baby and care for them! :) Sam and I work from home, so our schedules are pretty flexible! We’re able to take multiple breaks for playtime, walks, cuddles, feeding, etc. We love having furry company while we work - it’s a win/win! We are very attentive and to our boys’ needs at home and we’ll always bring that level of attention and care to every pet we look after. Whether it comes to strategically placing a sunny perch for their lazy afternoon lounging, to buying them a new set of toys because they get ruined every couple of months, their comfort, happiness and safety is our priority. We’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, routines, and individual needs so they feel as comfortable and at home as possible. Your fur babies will be met with plenty of love, care, attention, and of course, lots of cuddles <3
About: I have been caring for dogs since 2020, with experience providing dog sitting, overnight care, and boarding for friends, family, neighbors, and Rover clients.

“My dog was nervous about hanging out with a new person but Sean was so patient with her and she warmed up beautifully. His experience as a trainer showed. He communicated well. I will happily have him back next time I need.”

“As a first-time Rover user I was incredibly anxious about leaving my sweet girl, Holly, for the first time. Finding someone who truly understands rabbits is hard, but Baris was absolutely amazing! From the very first visit, his professionalism and calm energy completely put my mind at ease. He provided detailed updates and wonderful photos that allowed me to actually be at ease instead of worrying. He clearly knows his way around small mammals and treated Holly with such kindness and care. Holly is naturally very shy, but she felt so happy and comfortable with Baris that she was even doing 'binkies' around him! Seeing her so joyful in the updates he sent was the highlight of my trip. I can’t recommend him highly enough and will definitely be booking with him again! Thank you for taking such great care of my fur baby🐇”

About: Passionate animal enthusiast with 12 years of veterinary experience, beginning in doggy daycare and advancing to veterinary care. I offer safe, compassionate, and dependable pet services. I typically work 40-hour weeks, but I always have plenty of available time to spend with any pet in need. I cherish the love of all furry friends! * I offer daytime house-sitting which allows me to spend as much time as needed with your pet without overnight stay for personal reasons. My Shih Tzu has always received compliments on her friendly behavior and obedience training. She's allowed to roam freely in the home b/c there are no perishable items accessible to her. It’s important to ensure that all fur babies are respected and their needs are met.
About: Growing up, my childhood home was affectionately known as "The Zoo"—and for good reason! From dogs and cats to bunnies, hamsters, hermit crabs, and fish, I’ve spent my life surrounded by a diverse cast of creatures. With over 20 years of hands-on experience, I’ve transitioned from a kid who loved animals to a seasoned caregiver who understands the nuances of pet behavior and health. I’m particularly well-versed in specialized care; I can confidently administer medications and manage complex health routines and I’m a dedicated "cat parent" to my own senior kitty who has CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease), so I truly understand the patience, vigilance, and extra TLC required for pets with chronic conditions. Whether your pet is high-energy or requires more care, they’ll be in experienced, loving hands. I am home all day with open availability and would love to fit your special furry loved one into my schedule and keep them company! I believe that every interaction should be rooted in building a genuine foundation of trust; when an animal feels secure, they can truly thrive. This bond is especially vital for pets requiring special care or medications—I take the time to move at their pace so that even during medical routines, they feel safe, happy, and relaxed rather than stressed.
About: While I am new to Rover, I have a lifetime of experience loving and taking care of dogs. Whether I am stopping in, taking them on a walk, or boarding — I guarantee your pet will be loved, exercised, fed, happy and safe. I am also happy to set up a meet and greet to ensure the perfect fit. I’m currently a graduate student looking for part time work. My schedule is flexible. Please message me with any of your scheduling requests and needs. I am happy to care for your pet right in your home where they are comfortable or in my apartment with a small outdoor patio, if needed.
“Alexandra was great all around!! She did multiple drop-ins a day and took great care of my senior dog and cat. She was prompt, reliable, friendly and communicated very well & always took a lot of pictures which I really appreciated. Highly recommend Alexandra!”
About: I am a puppy mom in Astoria/LIC, close to many scenic walks and dog parks. I know how important it is (especially with puppies) that you re-enforce positive behaviors and training so your pup comes back behaving how you want them! I have been caring for others dogs (friends, neighbors, coworkers) for the past 10 years and have now successfully raised and train my own dog over the past year. I am also very active and love to run! I am happy to take your pup out with me. My dog Bailey is very friendly, she is already looking forward to play dates with your pup! She is very well socialized and adapts to any level of play that your dog can throw at us!
About: I have 4 years of experience caring for dogs and understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after your pet. Since I work remotely, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting. I’m located in the Rochelle Park/Paramus area and already spend a lot of my day caring for and walking my own dog. I’m comfortable adjusting to each dog’s routine, personality, and energy level. I may also be available for boarding depending on your dog’s comfort level and whether it’s a good fit with my home environment. I work remotely, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pet throughout the day. My schedule mainly revolves around occasional work meetings, and outside of those I can adjust my day for walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and other needs. I’m available throughout the week and can work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s normal routine. Every pet is different, so my goal is to follow the routine and instructions you provide as closely as possible. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, comfort level, habits, and needs while building trust with them over time. Whether I’m walking your dog, checking in, or pet sitting, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, cared for, and treated like I would want someone to treat my own dog.

I have a really nervous and picky dog, and he warmed up to Chris within minutes!! I’ve had several pet sitters over the years and the only one he loves is his grandpa (husband’s dad). However, Chris has met him three times now and based on pictures alone I can tell my little guy is feeling more and more comfortable each visit. I am definitely a repeat customer! I have another trip in the next couple weeks and am SO glad I can go away without worrying about the stress levels of my pup. Thanks so much Chris + Jack!!

We had such a wonderful experience with Christina! 🥰 She was so sweet, reliable, and attentive with our puppy Chloe, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. Chloe absolutely loved spending time with her, and Christina was always great about keeping us updated. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. We’re so grateful we found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their fur baby! 🐶💕

Michelle was great with my corgi. Communication while arranging the meet and greet could have been better but overall I’m very happy with the care she gave him for the drop-in visits. She listened exactly to what he needed and gave him lots of outside time. I would not hesitate to book with Michelle again.

Pete is amazing. I was gone for a business trip last week and Pete came over every morning to watch Oscar and see him off to daycare every day. Oscar was thrilled, as was Sandy, to spend so much time with his best friend. It gave me such peace of mind knowing that Pete was taking care of Oscar, and it was amazing to have one less thing to worry about. I literally cannot put a price on that!! Thank you, Pete!!
We had a great experience with the pet care service for our dog, Cola! Jinghong was very patient and caring with her, especially since Cola is an older dog and needs extra attention. We really appreciated the regular visits, feeding support, walks, and overall communication. It gave us peace of mind while we were away. Thank you for taking such good care of Cola — we truly appreciate it!
I can’t say enough great things about Ashley ! From the very first meet-and-greet, it was clear how kind, reliable, and genuinely passionate she is about animals. She took the time to understand my dog’s personality, routine, and needs, which immediately put me at ease. While at work I received photos, and little notes that reassured me my dog was not only safe, but happy and well cared for. It truly felt like my dog was being treated like family, not just a booking. When I come home from work, my dog is relaxed, content, and clearly has formed a bond with Ashley - which says everything. It’s not easy trusting someone with your pet ! If you’re looking for someone dependable, communicative, and full of love for your pet, I highly recommend Ashley !

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Wallington is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $38 per visit. 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.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
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 Wallington 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.
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 .
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
