About: I've cared primarily for dogs for over 25 years, frequently serving as the go-to walker and sitter for friends and family for the past decade. For the past 3 years, I've also cared for rabbits, and I have done drop-ins and overnight stays for multi-cat homes. I'm experienced and comfortable with administering oral medications and topical treatments for cooperative pets. I'm local to Babylon and available for drop-ins and walks nearby. I keep a flexible schedule and can visit at just about any time of day, seven days a week, including mid-day when most dogs need a break. I care for my own rabbit every morning and evening, so pet care is already built into my daily routine. I currently offer drop-in visits and dog walking. I follow each owner's house rules closely, including which rooms pets are allowed in, which pets can be together and which need to stay separate, and any feeding or medication routines. Dogs stay leashed any time we're outside a designated play area, and I check that doors, gates, and enclosures are secure before I leave.
About: Always feel the warmth of dogs of my family & friends . Usually they run to me right away! Love to play games & take long walks with your dog. Since I’m not currently employed, I’m available full time & on short notice. It’s so important to keep a consistent routine with your pet so they feel comfortable. I prefer taking care of pets in their home environment. I can drive long distance if needed. Looking forward to getting to know your pet & starting a strong companionship right away.
“I am super happy I found Alex. He cared for my two cats, dropping by throughout the weekend while I was away. He sent me lots of great photos of them playing and hanging out, and regular updates as he took care of their needs. Super communicative, even offered to do a couple things I hadn’t thought of. I’m always super nervous to leave my pets with someone, especially someone new, but Alex helped me feel comfortable that they were getting good care.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for years now I’ve had two of my own absolutely loved them I’m patient loving and will love your pet as if their own.

Id protect your pet as I’d protect a child and that’s a promise I work part time job and I’m a single mother and this would be for me to have some extra money. It’ll be fun and exciting They’re cuddled absolutely as much as they’d like and loved all my attention is on them and they’ll be spoiled and my child I have is well behaved and affectionate but knows her limits

About: I’ve taken responsibility of my own pets in my family for 10 years. Dog sat for my aunt for two years. Grew up with a Border Collie and two Dobermans! Trained my families new edition corgi, chow chow, and kelpie Shepard mix who’s now 2 years of age. I work part time as a college student finishing up my second semester before summer break.

They can be crated if needed. I will work according to their schedule as best as possible. They will get a lot of attention.
“Michelle was awesome!!!! She dropped in on my cat when I went away. She was reliable, communicative, and even brought my mail and packages in for me! My sweet guy gets so sick in the car so I hate to try and board him but I was so worried about leaving him alone. Michelle eased my fears and relieved my worries. I highly recommend Michelle and I’d definitely ask her to sit for me again.”
About: Hi! I’m Trinity, a teacher, and lifelong animal lover. Caring for animals has always been a meaningful part of my life, and providing a safe, calm, and loving home environment for your pet is my top priority. As an educator, I bring the same level of patience and attentiveness into pet care. I understand how important trust and communication are, especially when you’re leaving your pet in a new person’s care. My goal is for every pet to feel comfortable, well loved, and right at home so you won’t have to worry! 📅 Standard Business Hours for Dropoff/Pickup • Weekdays (Mon–Fri): 6:30pm-7:30pm • Weekends (Sat–Sun): 10:00am–7:30pm Anything earlier or later than these windows will incur an additional $20 convenience fee. If I ever need to step out briefly, there is always a trusted family member at home. My family is also actively involved in pet care and has experience helping care for visiting pets, ensuring consistent supervision at all times. In addition to caring for dogs and cats, I care for rabbits! If you’re unsure about a specific type of animal, feel free to ask me. I provide frequent photo and video updates so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I share my home with my own dogs and two cats! I also have a spacious, fully fenced secure backyard with plenty of room for play and zoomies. Whether your pet enjoys active playtime or relaxation time, they have it all here!
“Nadine was so wonderful with our senior pups. She completely respected our “slow to warm up” furbaby. He was relaxed & unfazed by her presence. We are thrilled and can’t wait to work with Nadine again soon! Highly recommend Nadine!”
About: I grew up with a white retriever named Daisy for 13 years until she passed away this past May. I currently have 2 cats for 7 years at home, and I have 3 guinea pigs with me at school in my apartment. I adore all types of animals and I love giving them hugs and kisses! I will make sure that I will always be on time and keep the house as clean as I left it! I am currently working part time so I am very available! My job is closed Sundays so I can guarantee availability then. I can come as much as you need me to :) I will always have my eye on your pet at all times. I believe that trust between a human and an animal is something that is developed over time, and I will make sure that I will be respectful of your pets boundaries and make sure that stay as safe as possible.

Vivienne is great! She was very communicative throughout the entire stay and sent lots of pictures and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s such a relief to find someone I can genuinely trust to take care of my pet while I’m away. She was reliable, caring, and made the whole experience so easy. I would definitely have her watch my pet again and highly recommend her!
Trish did an amazing job of taking care of my cat. Very kind and caring. From the start, she was reliable, communicative, and clearly experienced with cats. My cat was calm, happy, and well cared for when I returned Trish kept me updated with messages and photos which helped to alleviate any worry about my cat while we were away!
Great sitter. Always came on time and went above and beyond what was asked. Kept me up to date with what my cat was doing, sent pictures and played with him. The questions she asked during our meet and greet solidified her for me. Really felt she was knowledgeable and experienced. Will definitely book again when needed!
Kristin is professional, reliable & a very obvious pet lover. My pet takes a long time to warm up to people, and Kristin gained her trust by being consistent, loving and caring. She gave me peace of mind with helpful updates, pictures and consistency. She also treated my home with immense respect, by keeping things tidy, taking out the trash and even helping with some daily house chores. I absolutely trust her and would book with her again!
Diego has been doing a great job of taking care of my outdoor kitties for the past several months. My Kitties are a shy bunch, but Diego has been very patient and kind with them, thus helping me to travel without any worries. I would highly recommend Diego to take care of any one's pets while they are away on vacation or for daily visits. Thank again Diego for doing such a great job!
Time and time again Maya has gone above and beyond to meet her client's needs. I had an unexpected 10+ day hospital stay. I called Maya that day and she accommodated all my needs. My cats adore her. She sends videos/pics/updates. Because of Maya, my hospital stay was less stressful knowing my babies were being cared for. She's so reliable, professional and truly cares about the pets she takes on. Thank you from the bottom of my ❤️
Tori is truly exceptional and I am so happy to have found her here on Rover; after many interviews with people recommended by acquaintances etc., I was losing hope in finding the right person to watch Izzy, my 3 month old Golden Retriever. Tori is thoughtful, reliable, and deeply attuned to both pets and people. From the start, I felt an immediate sense of trust; Tori is communicative, calm, and incredibly conscientious. She went above and beyond to ensure my routines were followed carefully and that Izzy felt safe, loved, and understood. So grateful to have found her and cannot recommend her highly enough.
Lilian was an absolute joy to work with. My anxious staffy warmed up real quick and ended up having the least amount of stress ever while I was traveling. Lilian went above and beyond for my pup; reading stories, plenty of attention, and giving lots of love to make sure my pup was loved and cared for. Your furry friend will be in great hands!
I used Dillan yesterday for my 8 week old golden retriever puppy. I was very hestinant at first as an owner of two other dogs ages 11 & 4 I never used a sitter to help out with my dogs, however Dillan make the process so easy and help ease my nerves about having someone care for my dogs. He answered my messages on a timely manner and even shared pictures and a cute video of my pup Dunkin playing in the yard. I would highly recommend Dillan to care for your pets. He also followed the many rules and expectations that I’ve asked of him I Look forward to using him on a regular basis. Overall 10/10 service.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a West Babylon stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
