“Dawn and her son Adam were professional and fabulous from our very first communication with them about house- and dog-sitting for us. Adam and Finn took to each other immediately, we felt entirely comfortable leaving Finn in Adam’s capable hands, and it was obvious to us upon our return that Adam had taken immaculate care of both Finn and our home for the week we were away. We look forward to having Adam come back to stay with Finn soon. Thank you both so much!”

“We were fortunate to have Dana house sit for us on relatively short notice. She watched our 13 year old dog and 2 cats. We received updates and came home to some happy pets and a tidy house.”

“Andrea was great with Ruby! She was super communicative, on time, respectful and sweet with my puppy. She also sent a bunch of pictures which I love! Ruby is nervous meeting people at first and Andrea didn’t force anything and made Ruby feel so comfortable she was sleeping for most of their time together - a great sign she was relaxed and comfortable! Thank you again”

“Theo did an excellent job taking care of our cats. We booked him to house sit our two cats while we were away for nine days. He followed all of our instructions, and we came home to happy cats. He has a deep understanding of cat psychology, and he spent a ton of time interacting with our cats. We really appreciate him going above and beyond and will be booking him again!”

“Joyce was an absolute pleasure to stay at our house and take care of our pup! She was great at communication, taking pictures, and loving our sweet dog. We will definitely be using her again! Highly recommend.”


“Jacqueline did an excellent job house sitting for us for our dog and cat. She was responsible and communicative throughout the 5-day trip and we felt very relieved that our home and pets were in good hands. We look forward to booking with her again soon!”

“Antonio was a wonderful babysitter for my two puppies. One of my dogs has severe separation anxiety, and Antonio was incredibly attentive and patient with him. He kept me consistently updated throughout the day, was very communicative, and shared plenty of pictures, which gave me great peace of mind. At the end of the visit, he even offered helpful tips that I truly appreciated as a first-time dog owner. I would absolutely recommend him.”

“Becky was amazing as a live-in cat sitter for my elderly cat!! She was able to give him pills and inhalers easily. She sent me frequent updates and left my home spotless. Can’t recommend enough!!”

“Wonderful , I was so nervous but Julia won over our dog immediately and she was clearly very happy during Julia's stay. The house was immaculate when we returned . Very highly recommend Julia”

“Tenielle is great! Our dogs adore her, they were well cared for and our house was well looked after! I appreciated her taking the time to come and meet us before hiring her. She kept in touch with us while we were away and we loved receiving pictures during our trip. Your furry family will be taken care of with Tenielle!”

“Ellie did a fantastic job caring for our dog while we were out for the evening. She sent updates on how he was doing throughout the night to keep our minds at ease, and she was extremely understanding and patient when he had an accident before we left. We highly recommend Ellie to anyone looking for a pet sitter in the area!”

“This is the second time we had Izabela stay with our pets and she did a fantastic job once again! She is so loving towards them and is really quick with communicating with us which is a huge plus. Not to mention she leaves my home cleaner than I left it😍 You should definitely pick Izabela as your pet sitter if you want someone to treat your pets & home like their own (:”

“Lina was absolutely wonderful. We were on a vacation far away and very worried about our aging dogs. She took wonderful care of of them, sent pictures, and kept in close touch. It was very comforting to know our dogs were happy while we were away and we could see it in their faces. Lina generously provided extra TLC and the dogs seem to respond to her genuine care for them. Thank you so much, Lina. It’s wonderful to meet you and we will call you again for sure.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ardsley-on-Hudson
Grace did a wonderful job housesitting with our beagle, Henry, and our two cats. She's responsive, reliable, and punctual. Grace took Henry on nice walks and adventures, and he even got to meet her dog as well. As a bonus, Grace is going to school to become a veterinarian, and you can really tell how much she loves animals. Henry has been whimpering since she left, because he misses her. Additionally, my home was well taken care of; everything how I left it, and seemingly Henry didn't have a single accident in the house, which sometimes happens when I'm not around. If you want a sitter you know you can trust, you'll be in good hands with Grace.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Ardsley-on-Hudson on Rover is $168.38 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 18,426 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ardsley-on-Hudson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Ardsley-on-Hudson walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Ardsley-on-Hudson maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Ardsley-on-Hudson 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
