Very helpful at last minute and very diligent with a dog that needs more monitoring for behavioral issues. She was familiar with the breed and knew exactly what our girl needed

I had a short notice request and Gregory was so accommodating. He was great with my three goofy dogs and they were so happy after the drop in visits.

Ashlyn was reliable and prompt as a pet sitter. Our dog, Lando, was well taken care of and loved his time with Ashlyn while we were away. Will definitely use Ashlyn in the future.

Vicki is a regular with my cats and I always feel 100% safe and secure when my fur babies are in her care. She is the best pet sitter because her photos are so cute and characteristic. She brings out each cat’s personality and plays to what they like doing — love having her around!! :)

About: For a year, I walked my neighbor's Cavalier King Charles spaniel while she was recovering from a hip injury, until she could walk better. She and her daughter greatly appreciated my help and have said to me that their dog Cooper has been so much happier ever since he met me. I am a college student that goes to school 5 days a week from 7am to 2 pm. I can do early morning walks before 7am since I am a morning person, and I can do walks or come over after class. I am free on most weekends. I am free most of the time in the summer from June to August. I cannot bring pets into my home since I have two cats that are not very pet-friendly. But I can do all the care you need me to do at your house.

Sophia did an amazing job watching my 2 dogs! She sent detailed updates, lots of photos, and went above and beyond to make sure they felt comfortable while I was gone for 10 days. She maintained a high level of communication and I never had to worry. I highly recommend her for taking care of any pet you need!

About: I have plenty of references and experience with pet care. Growing up, I always had a dog and cat in the home. Currently, I live in an apartment and can’t get a dog. My boyfriend is allergic to cats, so I can’t get a cat either 😢 But I have plenty of friends and family who I have given pet care to. I can read animals pretty well and always prioritize their needs. I currently work full time but would love to use any extra time I have to help out your family. I work 3pm-11pm Sunday-Thursday. I am available all weekends unless my calendar says otherwise. When it comes to caring for pets, I prioritize their needs and make sure they have everything needed. I like to keep the parents in the know of how they are doing and update with pictures as often as possible 😊

About: I’ve had animals throughout my entire life. When I was younger, my parents ran a boarding kennel and my father bred dogs. I grew up on a farm with about five horses, 35 dogs, several cats, a bird, lizards, fish, hermit crabs, etc. My father trained my brother and I to race sled dogs at a young age and we did that for several years along with horseback riding. With that being said, I have extensive experience with different types of animals, and I am confident that you’re fur baby will be in good hands and have the time of their life while under my supervision. Please feel free to reach out with any questions and I hope to hear from you soon! I am currently working at a private residence where I make my own hours , so I have plenty of time to take care of your baby! I can accommodate you and your pet(s)in whichever way you desire! I usually bring my little tuxedo cat with me on trips if it’s an overnight, but if you would rather me not, we can always work something out and discuss our options! (:

About: I have taken care of my own and all of my family members pets for many, many years. Not only dogs and cats but also snakes, birds, mice, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, fish, lizards and chinchillas. My family was always saving animals and had a great love for all animals. I am pretty open and retired and looking to spend time with animals. I prefer a smaller breed of dogs if needing to walk for safety reasons. If a fenced in yard is provided, I would be open to larger dogs as well. I will not be caring for other pets in my home. I will be available to do drop in visits for most animals and walks.

About: I am an experienced and dedicated pet caregiver with a lifelong love of animals. I have previously owned both a Beagle and a Greyhound and am currently a proud cat parent to seven cats. In addition, I have successfully fostered and cared for eight litters of kittens, providing attentive care from infancy through adoption readiness. My experience extends beyond my own pets, as I regularly help care for my family's pets, including two dogs and a cat. I have also provided reliable pet-sitting services for close friends, caring for multiple dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles while they were away on vacation or at work. I understand that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and routines, and I am committed to providing compassionate, dependable care that helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. My goal is to treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply maintaining their regular routine, I am dedicated to ensuring they receive the attention and care they deserve. As a full-time college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care, including walks, feeding, and in-home visits. Pet care is a great fit for me because it complements my studies while giving me the opportunity to spend time with animals I love. Your fur babies will receive plenty of attention and companionship, and they'll make wonderful study buddies while I ensure they are happy, safe, and well cared for. Pets are family to me. My own animals are spoiled with love, affection, and attention, and I treat every pet I care for as if they were my own. I understand that being away from their owners can be stressful, so I make it a priority to give them plenty of love, comfort, playtime, and companionship to help them feel happy and secure until their family returns.

About: Dogs and Cats are basically my life, I have always loved and worked with animals growing up. I currently have a 9 year old Blue Nose Pittie at home as well as 5 year old Domestic Cat and 1 year old Domestic Cat! I love all breeds and sizes! I worked at East Greenbush Animal hospital for 3 years and although I have a new job, through working there I have gained experience not only through my animals but others as well. I love going on walks with dogs and letting them have the most fun they can! Whether your pet is down to earth, hyper off the walls or in the middle, I’d love to be able to visit and help out! I can not stay over night with your pets, but can let them out in the morning and evenings! I am looking forward to seeing all the dogs and cats Thanks! I can go before my work in the mornings, during the late afternoon once I am off work, and later at night to help with your pets. I always make sure your pets are comfortable in the environment they are in, keeping them safe and at peace is a huge roll while sitting.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Castleton-on-Hudson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 576 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Castleton-on-Hudson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Castleton-on-Hudson. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% can help with daily exercise

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 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.
