About: Hi! I'm a college student working toward vet school, so caring for animals isn't just a job for me, it’s what I genuinely love doing. I've had my own cat for 5 years, so I know what it's like to be a pet parent. I've also spent plenty of time watching other people’s dogs and cats, from very high energy puppies to older dogs who just want a quiet environment. I'm comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. If something’s wrong I will reach out immediately. Since I'm on summer break, I have a pretty open schedule, but I do like to be upfront about my specific availability. I'm available Monday through Friday all day. On Saturdays, I'm available after 4:00 PM. I can also do evening visits, but I wrap things up by 10:00 PM. My schedule is pretty open until I start class the 28th of August. I will have class on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 11am to 1:45pm and Fridays from 10am to 1:45pm. I know routines are really important to pets, so I'll work around whatever schedule your pet is used to, like midday walks, afternoon play sessions, or evening check-ins before bed. Consistency is very important! I only provide care in your home because I believe that pets are more comfortable in their own environment, with their own things and smells. I'm really careful with doors or any gates and will always make sure to double check every exit to make sure your pet stays safely inside. I will treat your home the way I'd want mine treated, I will clean up after myself, wash any bowls I use, and leave things tidy. I'll also send any updates/photos at every visit so you can see how things are going. I will also save your vet's contact info, just in case of any emergency. I always like to be prepared for anything.
“Megan was a great sitter for Nyla. She was very flexible when I added additional visits and requested changes in the visits. I will definitely be scheduling her for future visits.”

About: I provide real, personalized care, not just a side hustle. I’ve got the patience for hyper puppies and a gentle touch for senior dogs who need a slower pace. Your pet will get treated like family, because that’s the only way I know how to do it. <33 I work out of my computer 4 days out of the week and in the office on Tuesdays (doesn't require full 8 hours). Therefore, very flexible/open. Your pet's safety and your trust are everything. I treat your home with respect and follow your routine to a T. I’ve got families that rely on me time after time, trust your fur baby will be in good hands, I guarantee it. :)
About: I worked 1 year in pet boarding. And bath groomer. I cared every single breed and also cared a lot cats. It’s amazing !!!I loved it I’m available to play all afternoon. I really love spent my time with them. In the morning I have a job but I’ve arrived always early to my home. I always take care to them. Hours to eat, hours to play, to go to walk, most importantly make feel the dog comfortable and also the costumer. I am currently not working but have a few errand along the day. In the morning as soon as I wake up I would take care of the cleaning pet area, feeding and walking if needed. I would repeat the process in the afternoon. I make sure to keep everything as clean as possible, separate the pets as directed by the owners, also feed and walk (of dog) twice a day or as directed for the owner
About: In the span of my life, I had 4 dogs and currently I am taking care of 1. I also have taken care of family and friends' dog by bathing, feeding and walking them. I'm currently a full-time student at Mercy university meaning I could schedule walks or pet-sitting around my classes and study sessions. It can also be a relaxing break that helps me recharge while getting some fresh air. Plus, pet care can be flexible, allowing me to pick times that fit best with my weekly schedule. When caring for pets as a dog walker, I prioritize preparation and safety, ensuring pets have everything needed for a comfortable walk. I monitor their behavior closely, adjust pace based on energy levels, and offer personalized updates post-walk. I’m flexible with scheduling, accommodating my school responsibilities and my clients’ needs.
“Daniel is very responsive and understanding Lena is a senior dog who needs a little extra care. He communicated with me regularly but also left written notes for me as well. I am working with him again and hope he will continue to care for Lena.”

“Shalyse is fantastic. She checked in our cats while we were away, and she is extremely kind, professional, responsive, communicative and thorough. She was also very flexible and accommodating when a change of plans required us to modify our booking. We will definitely request her to watch our cats again and will highly recommend her to our friends. Thank you Shalyse!”

About: I’ve always loved animals, especially cats! I have a cat of my own and have spent years caring for pets. I’ve dog-sat for many of my friends, including caring for their dogs for stays lasting several weeks or even months. I also volunteered at a cat shelter for a year, where I cared for and spent time with many different cats. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning, giving pets attention, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and would love to take care of yours! I have a flexible schedule and can work pet care into my routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and longer stays, and I’m happy to discuss specific dates and times with each pet parent. I’m also comfortable caring for pets for extended periods when needed. I prioritize making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m attentive to each pet’s routine and personality and will follow their owner’s instructions closely. I have experience caring for dogs in their homes and my own cat, as well as caring for many cats while volunteering at a shelter. I’m responsible, patient, and always make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, food, and care.
About: Years in vet care mean I know what to watch for! I provide loving, expert care for all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to wise seniors. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine. With my part-time position at a veterinary hospital, along with my extensive veterinary experience, I have flexible availability to meet pet care needs. My background allows me to provide knowledgeable and attentive care while accommodating your pet's schedule. Your fur babies will never be bored with plenty of interactive toys to keep them entertained! I offer regular brushing to keep their coats smooth and healthy, plus a cozy, quiet space to rest with comfortable bedding. I ensure they feel at home and cared for, and I’m always prepared with knowledge of local 24-hour ER hospitals for peace of mind. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, whether in my home or theirs.
About: I’ve owned, trained and cared for dogs, birds, hamsters, bunnies and even worked for a non-profit to rehabilitate wild animals such as squirrels, ducks, pigeons, geese, swans and so on. Now I own 2 cats ^_^ I have open availability anytime of the week for walks, Home visits and onboarding. I will also share photos and videos of your fur babies upon request. Since I have open availability, upon request I am more than happy to work out any concerns or speak up to you about whatever I have going on. Communication is key on my end, I want our experience to flow smoothly and to make sure everyone is happy! I am available to onboard at the place that I stay at and I am more than happy to meet your expectations when staying over your place with constant videos, pictures, phone calls and anything that will reassure you that I am not trying to ruin my reputation as a true professional. I am a simple man and all I need is to be setup to succeed wherever I am staying and the rest I can show you more than I can write out a full essay on why I can be a good fit for you. Actions speak louder than words in my book so please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. <3
About: I am a quick study and am passionate about working with all sorts of animals, dogs and cats are my favorite. I work from home and can get my work done from anywhere. I had my first cat Patches ( my calico Queen) at 10 years of age . I know that each individual animal has its own temperament preferences, and schedule. I assume nothing, but will try everything. I have the most experience with dogs and cats . . Over 18 experiences on TrustedHouseSitters. Fresh water for will always be given twice a day. It’s me and my 15 year old sweet daughter . We are usually in bed by 9 pm . As a profesional furniture mover and airbnb host & guest I have been in many homes in several cities.I have owned homes myself, and I’m well-versed in finding immediate solution and soliciting outside help if anything goes wrong inside or outside the home . Even though my outside contact will be minimal, I will ensure your home is properly sanitized upon your return. I work from home, and I am an Early Bird. Morning walks and sometimes jogs are already embedded into my morning routine along with changing water bowls and feeding my own cats at home. My pets at home are spoiled with cuddly mornings and clean litter boxes. Up until last summer I would also be up early and walking my Belgian Malinois for a good hour. Whether it’s feeding time, play time or walking time, I treat every pet with the same love and attention I give to my Airbnb guests as a Superhost.

About: Hello, neighbors! My name is Min, and I’m a technical writer and editor. For many years, I shared my life with a sweet Pomeranian who was so much more than a pet—she was my best friend and, in every sense, my little girl. Even though she’s been gone for some time, I still find a little piece of her in the eyes of every animal I meet. Some of my happiest memories are of spending time with my own little one, as well as with my friends’ dogs and cats. Those experiences are what inspired me to join Rover in the first place! 🐾 Ever since moving to NYC, one of my greatest joys has been getting to know my neighbors’ four-legged family members, saying hello, and spending a little time playing with them. I’m always happy to go the extra mile to make sure they feel loved, comfortable, and cared for. To me, every dog and cat is special, and I genuinely cherish the time I get to spend with them. So please, say hello! I’d love to meet you and your furry family members. And who knows? If they’re interested, I could even teach them a little Korean! 😂🇰🇷 Perhaps we can start with a few K-dramas on Netflix. 🐾🤗 Hello, I currently have a full-job, but hours are flexible and I usually work from home! Please, let me know if your pets have any special games that they like to play. Your dogs/cats will be my sole focus when I am with them! Please, let me know if your pets have any special games that they like to play.
“Jacquelyn was awesome and took great care of our cat Lilly! She was professional, reliable, and flexible. She kept in contact and overall was a great experience. We would highly recommend to anyone reading this. Thanks so much!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine connection I build with every dog I care for. I treat every pup like my own—full of love, patience, and attention to their unique needs and personalities.

I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter who loves making pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I have experience with dog walking, house sitting, and keeping pets on their normal routine so everything feels familiar and stress-free for them. Just a note: I may occasionally have a family member briefly check in for safety when I’m in a new or unfamiliar area. I’m also very detail-oriented and great at following instructions, whether it’s a special feeding schedule, giving medication, or keeping up with a pup’s training routine. You’ll always get consistent updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your dog is safe, happy, and in caring hands. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I’m available 24/7!

In your home, I treat the space with respect and care, making sure everything stays clean and organized. I give pets lots of attention, playtime, and snuggles while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you feel connected even when you’re away. If your pet stays in my home, they’ll have a calm, cozy environment with plenty of love and supervision. I keep the space pet-friendly, clean, and safe, whether your dog is a couch cuddler or a ball of energy who loves fetch in the yard!
“Rose took great care of my cat with drop in visits. She gave my cat plenty of attention and took time to play with him. My cat really liked her right away when he first met her, and he’s usually shy so that says a lot! I would definitely recommend Rose to anyone.”


“Selina was wonderful! I appreciated her detailed updates and cute photos and videos. My cat clearly loved her which is always a huge relief. I would definitely book again!”

About: I have experience caring for and grooming pets with patience, attention to detail and genuine love for animals. I am comfortable handling pets with different personalities and needs. I am able ti provide pet care services full-time, with flexible availability throughout the week. I can accommodate different schedules and am happy to work with pet owners to find a time that works best for them and their pets.

About: I grew up caring for both big and small dogs (and horses!), so I love dogs of all ages and sizes! I promise to treat your furry family like my own while helping to maintain your pet's daily routine, including walks, meals, play (in the home and/or at dog parks), baths, cuddles, and whatever else your pet loves. I currently work as a research assistant at Columbia University/ New York-Presbyterian, so I spend most of my day talking with people. Here, I continue to learn the value and importance of connecting with others. As your pet's sitter or walker, I prioritize communication and comfortability with you to ensure that you feel excited about your pets care. I know I am! I currently work as a research assistant at Columbia University/ New York-Presbyterian. I spend my mornings at the hospital from about 10am-2pm. On any day, I am available either early in the morning or afterwards for walks or play time with your pups. On weekends, I am available for boarding. Every third week, I work from home and would love to board and/or care for your furry family for the week. It's priority to me to maintain the routine your pup knows and loves. I hope to get to know you and your pet so I can incorporate your pet's favorite walking routes, parks, toys, food, and general activity into the care I provide. On a side note, I am a distance runner! If you would like your pet to get some extra energy out, I would love to run with them.
About: Hi! I’m a Columbia University graduate student trying to get by. I have taken care of a large range of animals including hamsters, geckos, cats, and dogs. Friends and family have both trusted me with their furry friends. I treat animals like they’re my own (I spoil my cat son Hugo) and make sure to receive the best care! I work a full time job, but I am available on all evenings after 5 and mornings before 9am. I am also available during all hours of the day on weekends. I live in an apartment, but I am happy to watch your pets at your home. If needed, my apartment has a lot of space, and I live in a walkable, dog friendly neighborhood near a park!
About: What sets me apart is the depth of love and care I bring to every animal. I’m pet CPR and First Aid certified, and I have over 9 years of hands on experience caring for my beloved bulldog Bear, my roommate’s dog Lily, and a friend’s cat and her kittens while babysitting. Bear passed away last year, and caring for other pets again feels like a meaningful way to be around the love and companionship I miss so deeply. With me, your pet isn’t just watched, they’re truly cared for like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I take my college classes 100% online, giving me a very flexible schedule. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, frequent check-ins, walks, playtime, and companionship. Whether it’s cuddles, feeding, or structured outdoor time, I’m able to fit their needs into my routine without rushing. Having pets around actually brings balance and joy to my week, so caring for them becomes a meaningful part of my day, not an interruption. I care for pets with the same love I gave my own dog, whether they’re in your home or mine. I follow routines closely, keep their space clean and safe, and provide regular updates. I believe pets need both mental and physical stimulation, so I make sure they get a balanced mix of exercise, play, affection, and calm companionship. My goal is for every pet to feel secure, engaged, and truly cared for.

Brandon is an exceptional sitter! He got back to me in a timely manner even when i requested his services a bit last minute. My German Shepherd pup loves him and I feel comfortable leaving him in his care. He kept us updated if anything happened and even took some cute photos of our kitty at home. If you’re looking for a trustworthy sitter, Brandon is your guy!

Let’s begin by saying I’ve never left my dogs for more than a few days and if so usually with just my mom. I had to go away for a family vacay and was so anxious as one of my doggies has to take his heart medication every 12hrs. Being away for 7 days while everyone I trusted was on this trip with me and thank god I came across Laudianny she was AMAZING! She was puntual and amazing with my babies. She was so good with link and his medicine and so loving with Lily 💕 all my dogs loved her. I will 100% be booking with her again!
Grace has been a tremendous help with taking care of Bianca. She is always punctual, reliable, and great at communicating. We feel very fortunate to have found someone as kind, caring, and trustworthy as Grace. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pet.

What can I say about Melanil!! She’s so amazing schlepping back and forth to take care of my sweet boy shadow. We are super appreciative of her and we would love to have her back any ti e we need help. She was able to handle and control this 98pound dog responsible and with love. We are happy and so is shadow

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Bronx is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $43 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 November 2026, there are 26,392 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Bronx. 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.
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 Bronx 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 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.
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 Meet & Greet.
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.
To find sitters in Bronx with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 cancellation policy, 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.
