“Jennyfer was so helpful and accommodating. We had to do a last minute booking due to an emergency. She made it work with her schedule and even went out of her way to make sure we had a meet and greet. She sent pictures and ensured that our pups were very well cared for!”
“I appreciate Rosandy and Edward with all of my heart. When I see their photos of Blaze and Starlette, I see happy, content pets. I truly have no worries when I am away from my sweet fur-babies. Thank you Rosandy and Edward.”
About: What differentiates me is the love and patience I give to each pet. I have experience with puppies and older dogs that need special care and shy rescue puppies. I treat each pet as if it were mine and always keep the owners informed with photos and messages. Pet care is part of my everyday life. I enjoy spending time with animals in the mornings and evenings, and I always make sure pets receive walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, so I can adjust to the needs of each pet and provide reliable, loving care whenever it’s needed. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, pets always have a clean and cozy space, fresh water, and regular walks or playtime. I make sure the environment is safe, secure, and free of hazards. In a client’s home, I follow their routines carefully, respect their rules, and provide regular updates with photos so owners can feel at ease knowing their pets are happy and cared for
About: I’ve taken care and walked dogs of every kind since I was 21. I started off with rover and WAG! from there got to meet lots of dogs of every breed and sizes. I had amazing clients that relied on me and used to walk their dogs in every party of Manhattan, but when COVID came I had pet owners that moved out of NY and so many of my clientele fell down by a lot. Now I’m trying get on my feet on what I love the most I have dealt with lots types of dogs and experienced a lot with animal care. I also got references from previous clients on how much they can tell you about how their dogs loved me when I came in every day to walk them. Right now I’m pretty much open on my schedule it depends on the area and timing but for now my availability is open right now. Well as of now I live in home floor and I tend to watch the dogs that stay over night throughout the day so they don’t anything silly.
“Abdelkader was a great companion to Rose while I was gone. His regular check-ins with pictures gave me a lot of peace of mind. I would book with him again per his availability.”
“Excellent pet sitter! We received pictures and updates regularly. She communicated with us constantly and played with our kitties while we were away! Even brought toys to engage with them! Can’t recommend her enough!!”
About: As a teacher, patience, reliability, and communication are second nature to me. I take the time to learn each pet's personality and routine so they feel comfortable and cared for. I'll treat your pet like family and keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing they're in good hands. Currently a teacher on summer break looking forward to helping you take care of your fur babies in this summer heat. All day availability for walks, drop ins and snuggles.

I'll also send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Jose was absolutely amazing with our kitties while we were away! He always sent lots of pictures, provided us with detailed daily updates, and answered any questions we had. Will definitely be rebooking ?”
About: Your dog’s home away from home 💙🐾 I provide loving, personalized boarding in my home, with a fenced backyard, plenty of attention, playtime, and daily photo and video updates. I have over 10 years of experience as a dog walker and pet sitter, caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. My experience has taught me how to safely handle all kinds of dogs while understanding their individual needs, energy levels, and behaviors. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care they may need. While you’re away, you can relax knowing your pup is in a safe, loving, and comfortable home. I’ll keep you updated with photos and videos so you can see how they’re doing and feel close to them even when you’re away.

I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can give pets lots of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I love making sure every pet feels happy, safe, and loved while in my care. I live in a house with a fenced backyard where pets can safely play and enjoy outdoor time. I also have a nearby park for walks and extra exercise if the owner prefers. I am very adaptable and always follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s preferences, whether that means specific feeding schedules, walk routines, playtime, or special care instructions. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and at home while providing the level of care their family expects.
“Jeffrey took care of our big 15lb cat, Amor. Jefferey was fantastic and even managed to get Amor to eat treats out of his hand! I can't even get Amor to do that. He was wonderful and we would definitely have Jeffery come back when we go out of town again to take care of our Kitty. Thank you Jefferey!”
About: I am a pet rescue expert who has always had a soft spot for animals.I've volunteered for numerous animal shelters and fostered for rescue groups. My love for animals started at a young age where I found myself aiding neglected animals of all types. I've saved dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, roadants, you name it! I quickly became the “go-to” girl for animals in need. Needless to say, your pet will be in great hands as I take my responsibility of any animal serious. I am experienced with all breeds and sizes. I have a big boy of my own. A 90 lb Blue Nose Pitbull named Prince. Last fun fact - i've created a show around my love for animals and would be happy to share it with you :) I currently work from home and can take breaks during the day to walk your pet or do pop in visits. I'm also free during the evenings and weekends to sit. I will Follow a Schedule and pet proof the home. While chewing on toys or bones, your pet will be monitored. I can also distribute medicine as needed (experienced). I'm also knowledgable of poisonous foods and will watch your pet as my own.
About: I’m a friendly and energetic person who loves walking dogs, they’re are my friends while we are walking and playing having fun together. My whole life is surrounded for dogs since I was born. I decided to earn money like this and help dog parents to trust in someone who can take care of your dogs as much as their owner. My experience is based on my 3 schnauzers and some dog’s friends and neighbors on this last 3 years, I’m saving for college and focus to get a vet career.

“Faith was a great sitter for our cat Molly. Faith came every morning to feed and play with her. She sent us photos every visit, which we loved! Faith was attentive, communicative and went above and beyond during her visits. We trust her and hope to work with her in future! 10/10 would recommend.”
About: I have one dog of my own who is 4 years old. She is a husky-pit mix and if you have had either of the two breeds you'd know how challenging they can be. Yet, we manage to live a harmonious life with many complimenting us everywhere we go. I have dedicated myself to learning about training and I am dedicated to doing the best with what I know and learning more so I can do better. I bring this to every exchange I have had with clients trying to understand their dogs better and even received my certification in NEPOPO to continue learning. I can calm and handle even the most misunderstood animals and hope we can work together to give you and your loved one(s) the best life possible. A standard day includes structured potty, exercise, feed, nap, second potty, play, exercise, feed and decompression time again, final potty, then sleep. Each dog get's their attention and space. I am currently working from home (self-employed) and committing myself to bookings and working on projects from home. Trust and environment are everything for allowing a dog to feel safe and comfortable. I first like to do a walk through with my clients and their dog to understand any behaviors or needs the client or dog has and then we discuss specific expectations regarding routine, emergencies, home, care & communication.
“It has been a complete blessing being connected with Melanie and having her join our lil fur baby family! <3 This has been our second time using her services and no complaints here. Since the jump, Melanie has been curious, caring, communicative, consistent and incredibly reliable to both me and my lil bunny Honey! Honey absolutely loves her! In the past I would see behaviors after I arrived home from an extended trip but since she’s had Melanie in her life, Honey has been nothing but binkies and wiggles! I think Honey and I have found a keeper! 🥰”
About: Growing up, I had the joy of loving and caring for an 80-pound, goofy, American Pitt Bull Terrier, named Meryn. Throughout my high school years, he was my constant companion, playing catch at the East River Park on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. We would jog across the Williamsburg Bridge and run up and down the stairwell in my apartment building to burn off energy (we lived on the 11th floor). He was an incredibly curious boy, who made training fun. He was very motivated by treats and praise. Through repetition and treats he learned all the basic commands. I have petsat many times for family members over the years. Pets included are dogs (large and small breeds) cats, hamsters, and a bearded dragon once. My longest dogsitting experience lasted 3 weeks with my aunt’s pug, Coco Rico, while my aunt was on vacation. During this time, Rico had an ear infection and I had to administer his ear drops. Being a pug, I had to ensure his eyes and face folds were clean. I have catsit for my brother’s diabetic cat, Tuna Fish, on several occasions. I administered insulin injections daily. I learned how to measure the proper dosage and how to safely/comfortably give her the injections. She was diagnosed with diabetes in 2020, so it was not easy learning how to give a cat a shot via a Zoom call with the vet! But learning this and helping my brother with the insulin injections, kept Tuna going for 4 more years after diagnosis. This is by far the most medical care experience I have had with pets. Nowadays, I regularly borrow my Gen Z daughter’s dog, Espresso. He’s a Pomeranian-Chihuahua mix, and my favorite little guy. My grandpup, if you will. With this past winter being a very cold one in NYC, I ensured to dress Espresso in his sweater, coat, and boots for his walks. I do photo shoots with him while on walks, during play time, and naps. I update her with anecdotes throughout the day, such as mentioning any puppy pals we ran into while out and anything funny or adorable he’s done. She even recently said to me, “You take the most wonderful pictures of him.” That truly warmed my heart because I love capturing him in different places and poses. My pet baby now is an American short hair cat with calico patterned fur, named Basil (aka Ms. Lady Boop Boop). She’s a 16 year old, still feisty gal, who has a favorite fishy toy that dangles from a wand. Being a senior, she has developed arthritis in her old age and now makes use of cushioned stairs to get on the couch/bed. She also needs an eye ointment, the application of which has become part of our daily routine. In the past, when she has been ill, I've also given her medicine in liquid form via syringe as well as getting her to swallow a pill. Additionally, I took care of a feral cat that would visit me now and then. My family has a home in Albany, in upstate New York, and I'm happy to board dogs up there for weekends or extended stays should a pet parent allow it. The feral cat that would visit me was in Albany and would appear randomly in our backyard. I fed and watered him whenever he came by. He was deaf and the sweetest guy, who loved rubs and to hang out on our deck. He had an extra digit on each front paw, so I dubbed him Thumbs. One day, when he visited, I noticed immediately that he had fleas on him. I gave him a bath a kiddy tub in my backyard with flea shampoo. I bought the flea comb and collar and got rid of those pesky bugs. I know he was grateful because he'd been scratching so hard, his fur was missing in some places. I am a visual artist and writer, working from home, so my weekdays are flexible. I set my own schedule working on my projects so I can easily accommodate different pet types and time slots for care. I occasionally travel to my family home in Albany, upstate New York, but I always plan that ahead of time and I am happy to board pets up there if the pet parent is open to that option. I live in a 2-bedroom apartment in Brooklyn, NYC. I am located on the 3rd (and top) floor of a walk-up building. I have a senior, female cat, who is very relaxed and sleeps most of the day. There is no outdoor space here, but there are local parks nearby, including a dog run. I also have a house upstate, in Albany, NY. There is plenty of space for running around here, including a backyard. We are currently having a fence put in and I will update this when it is installed.
“Leaving another five star review to thank Dayanara for her services. She did an amazing job giving us peace of mind for our two cats while we were away for a couple weeks on vacation. She double checked our automated water and feeder were always topped up, and went out of her way to make sure our automatic vacuum was seated properly in it's dock. I haven't trusted anyone else on any platform to watch my cats for the past few years and we're beyond lucky she was still available this past month. Thanks Dayanara!”
“Isabel was absolutely wonderful. She was available in such short notice and took good care of our cat. She has a great personality and our cat loved her. Would 100% recommend her.”
About: I've cared for pets my whole life and enjoy doing so. Before losing by beloved fur son last year, I would walk him and my cousins dog when he would go out of town. Along with the dogs and cats I've encountered, I strongly prioritized providing them with mental stimulation. Walking and challenging play is essential to their wellbeing and I've encouraged friends with pets to do more on their behalf. As an afterschool tennis coach, the flexibility and active work would be best for my shift at 1:30pm and after 6pm. I also work at a food delivery company part-time Wed & Friday 9pm to 2am and Sundays from 4pm to 9pm. This kind of work keeps me engaged and on my feet and allows me to pay attention to details and slow down a bit. I love being nurturing and taking time to shell the flowers! I follow the owners strict diets and regiments for their fur babies and keep things tidy. I respect the pet as I would any adult or pet of my own by keeping a close eye on them and developing a loving and trusted relationship.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodhaven
Siyu is wonderful! She’s very thoughtful and detail-oriented, and always makes sure everything is taken care of and in order. My two senior cats love her, which means so much to me and gives me peace of mind whenever I’m away. I really appreciate how reliable and caring she is. I’m so glad I found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a great cat sitter!
Angela was wonderful with Tappi! She was very patient and seemed experienced with puppies. I also really appreciated her great communication and flexibility when I needed to change the visit times. She made the whole process easy and gave me peace of mind knowing Tappi was in good hands. I would definitely book with her again! 😊
Rachel was so kind and patient with our young puppy! Our puppy is still learning and doing all the typical puppy things, and she handled everything really well. We really appreciated her patience and understanding as our little one continues to learn and grow 🙂
My skittish shy cats were very comfortable with Kathryn, which is very unusual for them! I think this is a testament to Kathryn's patience and pet sitting skills :) Kathryn was absolutely lovely to work with and gave me thorough daily updates. She would be my first choice as a pet sitter the next time I need one.
Briana was so great!! I had a last minute family emergency come up and needed a sitter desperately for my cat and not only did she agree to take care of my cat last minute but she came to my place the same day I reached out to her before I had to leave for my flight to do a meet and greet. My cat instantly liked her energy and let her pet him/greet him. She responded quickly from the beginning all the way to the end of the visit and was also a great communicator. She went above and beyond for my cat by cleaning/refilling his bowls every day, cleaning his litter box, giving him pets/affection and sending me photos as well for my own reassurance! This was my first time leaving my cat with a stranger and I couldn’t be happier with how she handled everything! I would highly recommend her for anyone’s little fur baby!
I cannot thank Nicole enough for the extraordinary care she gave my senior cat, Ralph. Ralph can be quite fractious and relies on precise daily medication. Nicole went above and beyond: she worked with us for over a month before my trip to get accustomed to Ralph's temperament and help prep the apartment for safe dosing. Because of her thorough preparation, she was able to handle Ralph’s medication with 100% confidence while I was away. She was super communicative throughout. Nicole is patient, reliable, and exceptionally skilled with older or higher need pets.
Sin Ying is wonderful with cats! My cat is very shy and cautious around strangers, but he warmed up to her surprisingly well and was comfortable interacting with her. She was also great at administering his medication and inhaler, Really appreciated how patient and gentle she was with him. Absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable cat sitter!
We’re so grateful to Angie for looking after our little Moylan! ❤️ She took such great care of him, making sure he was fed, played with, and given plenty of attention. She kept us updated with lovely pictures and messages throughout, which gave us such peace of mind. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. We’re so thankful she was able to mind Moylan and would recommend Angie 100% to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pet!
I found out my cat had an ear infection 1 day before a 10 day international trip. I usually have my neighbor watch her, but the vet wanted me to wipe a scratch near her ear once a day and administer ear drops in her ear twice a day so I knew I needed more help. Natalia responded almost immediately to my request and she was at my apartment meeting my cat within 24hrs! She was communicative, kind, and best of all was able to wipe her scratch AND get ear drops into her ear (she’s very wriggly so this was impressive!). I was so grateful for peace of mind so last minute! She’s the best of the best!
Laura has been taking care of Flurry regularly for the past few weeks, and I couldn’t be happier with her care. She is thoughtful, organized, respectful, and compassionate, and I especially appreciate how much she adapts to Flurry’s individual preferences. He’s a very easily scared kitty, but Laura is incredibly patient and gentle, taking the time to build his trust drop-in by drop-in. I’m confident that he’ll continue to slowly open up to her, and Ill continue to book her services :)
Tedy is everything you're looking for in a cat sitter. She is attentive, warm and treated our cats as if they were her own! Her amazing care and excellent communications made us so happy while we were away, knowing our furbabies were in capable hands. Thank you so much Tedy! We are so lucky to have found you!
You could not ask for a better person to look after the dearest members of your household. On top of being timely, communicative, professional, and incredibly friendly, Fiona cares about animals and doing right by them to a degree that I could not have imagined. Anybody would be lucky to have Fiona watch their animals.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Woodhaven is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $54 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.
As of October 2026, there are 27,381 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Woodhaven. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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 .
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.

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 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.
