Jorge was great during a recent 6-night stay with our two dogs! He was very responsive and shared helpful photos and updates throughout the visit. Our dogs loved him and we look forward to working with him again soon.

Kamryn took good care of my dog while I was away. She was reliable and easy to communicate with, and everything went smoothly. I appreciated the updates and felt comfortable knowing my dog was being looked after. I would recommend her to others looking for a dependable dog sitter.

Tenielle was reliable, warm, great with the pups, and excellent when it came to communicating any questions or concerns we had. She stayed with our two labradoodles, one of whom is rather mischievous, and we found no chewed socks, paper, etc... when we returned home. She followed our instructions to the "T". We would definitely use her again.

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!

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!

About: I just have an intense love for all animals and think they are all angels. If I had more self-control, I'd be vegan. I am open to taking care of any animals but mainly have experience with dogs and cats. I'm still looking for full-time work so currently, I have an open schedule. I would prefer to work Mon-Fri. I am open to discussing weekend availability. I would prefer to take care of the pet in the client's home, because I have pets of my own. My pets are both pretty unique, so it would be more efficient to do it in a space that's familiar to the pet.

About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs and understand the responsibility that comes with taking care of someone’s beloved pet. I’m experienced with following their regular feeding routines, providing fresh water, taking dogs on walks, giving them bathroom breaks, playing with them, and making sure they have a safe and comfortable environment. I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, and I take the time to learn their individual routines and needs. I’m also attentive to their behavior and make sure they receive plenty of exercise, companionship, affection, and supervision throughout the day. I take pride in being dependable and treating every dog in my care with patience, respect, and the same level of love and attention I would want someone to give my own pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and on weekdays after 5 PM. If that works with your schedule, I’d be happy to care for your furry family members and make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I have a fully fenced backyard with plenty of space for your pet to play, relax, and enjoy some fresh air. I also live near a local park, making it easy to take your furry friend on enjoyable walks and give them the exercise and attention they deserve. I want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, happy, and right at home.

About: I’ve had welcomed my first pet ever when I was 10 years old , then in 2012 I’ve have welcome another fur baby to the family . Being around my own personal pets made me love doing dog sitting a lot more so starting in 2013 I’ve decided to volunteer and also become employed with the services of onboarding , dog walking , etc . I love doing my job when it comes to pets because I think of them as my own. I am currently working Monday - Friday but my schedule is also very flexible. I am free on the weekends if services are needed as well. When caring for your pets in your home or my home they are well taken care of between any medications, a routine that they follow I will make sure that while your away they will be left in great hands .

Domenica stayed with my dog Kosmos for three nights. I can only recommend her services. She was very responsive, sent me updates, and took great care of him. Kosmos often gets anxious when I’m traveling, which I can see based on how he acts while I’m away and right after I’m back. But this time he was completely relaxed and happy, which is entirely Domenica’s accomplishment.

About: Hi there! I’m Grace, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with a genuine passion for caring for dogs and cats. 🐾💗 I have a background in pet care through helping family friends with their dog and cat boarding business, where I gained hands-on experience caring for pets with all different personalities, ages, sizes, and energy levels. I’ve always loved being around animals, and caring for them is something that comes naturally to me. I recently moved into a beautiful luxury apartment where I run my digital marketing company from home, which gives me the flexibility to be fully available 7 days a week. Because I work from home, I’m able to spend a lot of time with your pet throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods of time. Your pet will receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, potty breaks, walks, and cuddles depending on what they’re used to at home. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, crate routines, and any special instructions you provide. I absolutely LOVE both dogs and cats and believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Whether your dog is energetic and loves to play, your senior pup prefers relaxing on the couch, or your cat needs a little time to warm up, I’m patient and happy to give them the individualized care they need. I also know how reassuring it is as a pet parent to know your furry baby is doing well, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. 📸🐶🐱 My goal is simple: to make your pet feel like they’re on their own little vacation while you’re away. I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and care I would want for my own pets. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! 💕🐾 I work from home full-time running my digital marketing company, so I’m home a lot and have a very flexible schedule. Your dog will have constant companionship, attention, and care throughout the day rather than being left alone for long periods of time. I’m able to take them out for regular walks and potty breaks, give them plenty of playtime and cuddles, and keep them on their normal routine. I love having a furry companion around while I work, and I’m always happy to take a break from my computer for some playtime, a walk, or just some extra attention! Your dog’s comfort, happiness, and routine are my top priorities, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while they’re with me. 🐶💕 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your fur baby in someone else’s care, and I never take that responsibility lightly. I want every dog and cat staying with me to feel safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment they arrive. I take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free. I’m attentive, responsible, and always keep a close eye on the pets in my care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is happy, safe, and being well cared for while you’re away. 🐾💕

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my whole life. Friends, family, and peers trust me to take care of their pets while they’re away. I made sure that they returned home better than ever like they went on a vacation too! I have experience with high-energy pups to senior dogs and can adapt to their personality and pace. I enjoy caring for animals from walking, playing, administering medication, grooming, and providing a calm space. What find most important is being patient and attentive to what your pet specifically needs. My top priority is always keeping pets happy and healthy. I’m currently on a break from school and not working on anything else. My dog, cat, and turtle keep me company in the house. I enjoy daily walks, visiting the park, and sunset outings. Rain or shine I’m available to go on walks, have playtime, visit parks, or give cozy cuddles. I’d be happy to take dogs out to walk wherever they’re most comfortable. I can also assist with grooming, clean up, take in mail, water plants, or any other tasks. I’m currently not taking pets into my home but I am willing to travel.

FAQs for House Sitting - Bronxville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Bronxville on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 18,886 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bronxville. 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 Bronxville 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 Bronxville 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 Bronxville 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.
