“Stephanie takes great care of all of our pets, is quick to respond to questions/concerns about them, and was able to accommodate our booking on a day's notice due to a family emergency that required us to travel immediately. I highly recommend her!”
About: I was a mama to my Olde English Bulldogge boy Lolek for 11 years. I have 3 dogs, a 2 year old Bull Terrier female named Koko, an almost 2 year old Cockapoo named Nala and a handsome boy named Zane that is a Bernedoodle Pit-Bull mix. I’m a homeschool mama with a flexible schedule. I homeschool my kids so I have a very flexible schedule. I am available during the week as well as the weekend. I only my be unavailable for services between 5pm-7pm as I may be taking my kids to extracurricular activities. I have 2 dogs at home so I welcome pets that get along with other animals. I have a 1.7 acre unfenced yard and love walks in my neighborhood and playtime in my yard. My dogs are crated during the night and when I am not home. I welcome pets that sleep in the crate during the night but also can accommodate well trained sleepers that need a bed or sofa. I can train your pup with simple commands and can give a bath as needed (for extra cost). I do have a dog kennel outside that I can use to let the pets I care for safely run around and play with each other.
About: I grew up in Oklahoma on 90 acres with cows, horses, cats, and dogs. I've always had a passion for animals and the outdoors. One of the unique experiences I offer is adventure outings for your pup. Living near the beach allows me to provide refreshing beach walks, and as an avid hiker, I also enjoy taking dogs on scenic trail adventures where they can safely explore and enjoy nature. I currently have two dogs of my own—a Miniature Dachshund and a German Shepherd mix we rescued. If your dog would benefit from a positive, supervised social outing, I’m happy to provide that as well. Growing up, I regularly cared for and walked neighbors’ and family members’ pets, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust. My goal is to give you peace of mind while your pet has a fun, enriching experience. You can rest assured that your furry family members will be cared for and loved as if they were my own. As a full-time dog dad to my two pups, I maintain a flexible schedule and am readily available to help ensure your pets receive the care and attention they deserve. Whether it’s a quick neighborhood walk for exercise or an extended stay with a pet who needs a little extra companionship, I’m here to provide dependable, attentive care. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and fully cared for. I am committed to providing a high level of personalized care and attention to every client. I ensure that when you book a walk or service with me, your pets receive my full, undivided focus. This dedicated one-on-one time allows me to tailor each visit to your pet’s individual needs, personality, and routine. I also have a spacious SUV available for safe transportation if needed. For dogs who enjoy a little extra adventure, I offer nature hikes as an additional service, giving them the opportunity to explore and exercise in a safe, supervised environment. Feel free to send me a message with what you’re looking for, and I’ll respond as soon as possible. I look forward to connecting with you and your pets!
“Vinny helped me ensure my pets had great care during a family emergency. I am forever grateful for his prompt help and excellent care, it was such a comfort to know my pets were taken care of and I didn’t need to worry about them at all. Thank you!!”
About: About Me🫶🏻 Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I work remotely so I have plenty of time to give attention and love to your baby! I grew up in a household with large dogs and was involved in their daily care from puppyhood through their senior years. I have experience caring for dogs with health issues, including administering extra attention to senior and sick dogs. I understand that every dog has unique needs, whether that’s high energy playtime, structured walks, gentle senior care, or simply companionship and reassurance while you’re away. I’m attentive, responsible, and genuinely invested in making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every dog I care for as if they were my own. I truly can’t wait to meet your pup and spend time giving them the care, attention, and affection they deserve. I’m self-employed with the ability to work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to plan my days around your pet’s needs. My husband and I are both big animal lovers. We don’t currently have pets of our own, which is one of the reasons I’m so happy to be on Rover! I have lot of time, attention, and love to give to yours. Your pet will never feel like an afterthought, they’ll be a welcomed part of our daily routine while you’re away. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs, routine, and personality. For walks and drop ins, I focus on safe outings, fresh food and water, playtime, and plenty of affection. I’m mindful of energy levels, weather conditions, or any special instructions you provide. For overnight care in your home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. This includes feeding on schedule, walks or litter care, medication if needed, companionship, and ensuring your home is left clean and secure. I’m attentive to behavior changes and always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety, making sure to communicate with you so you have live updates on your baby🫶🏻 If your pet likes to go outside, I’m happy to take them for a long hike on trails in the area, or a normal leash, walk, whatever you would typically do with them! Whether care takes place in my home or yours, your pet will receive consistent attention, supervision, and love treated as if they were my own.
About: Growing up with dogs taught me something early: pets are family. Outside of my full-time remote tech consulting gig, I provide high-touch based pet care for families throughout Westchester and Manhattan. My goal is simple: create a calm, trusted second home where your dog feels genuinely safe and loved. I intentionally keep bookings limited so every dog receives individualized attention, consistency, and companionship. Whether your pup is energetic and playful, senior, recovering from surgery, or simply loves a calm environment, I tailor care around their exact routine and personality. What makes Kristine different: ✓ 100% work-from-home flexibility ✓ Fenced backyard + Hudson River walks ✓ Real-time photo/video updates ✓ Pick-up/drop-off assistance available ✓ Medication administration experience ✓ Senior & post-surgery support ✓ Calm, low-volume household ✓ Overnight house sitting with light home care included For pet parents who home-cook meals, I’m also happy to prepare fresh dog meals in my home using your provided ingredients. For house sitting clients, I believe premium service should feel complete. In addition to caring for your pet, I help maintain peace of mind by bringing in packages/mail, taking out trash, watering plants, and keeping your home tidy. I’m building long-term relationships with both dogs and their owners. Many of my clients become repeat families, and that trust means everything to me. Let’s schedule a meet & greet and see if we’re a great fit for each other. 🤍 My work-from-home schedule provides complete flexibility for boarding, house sitting, walks, feeding, and bathing. I have my own vehicle to help with pick-ups and drop-offs. My home has a fenced backyard, and located close to the Hudson River, offering safe outdoor access and scenic trail walks. For house sitting, I maintain your pet's exact routine in their familiar environment while also helping collect mail/packages, watering plants, and light cleaning to ensure you return to a tidy home.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my personalized approach to each pet’s needs. I take the time to get to know your pet’s routine, preferences, and quirks, ensuring they feel at ease while you’re away. Whether it’s providing extra cuddles, managing special diets, or offering daily updates with photos and videos, I treat your pet like my family and make sure they receive the love and attention they deserve. Plus, I’m available for last-minute bookings and flexible with scheduling to accommodate your needs. During the week, I focus on my other commitments, but in the evenings and on weekends, I’m fully available to give your pet the care, love, and attention they deserve. Whether it’s evening walks, playtime, or weekend cuddles, I make sure to adjust my schedule to provide personalized care and peace of mind while you’re busy or away. Since I’m not able to bring pets into my home, I focus on providing top-notch care in the comfort of your pet’s familiar environment—your home. I make sure your pet feels safe and secure in their own space, maintaining their usual routine and surroundings. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or administering medications, I treat your home as my own and provide attentive care that keeps your pet happy and healthy. Plus, I ensure regular communication with updates, photos, or videos to keep you connected while you’re away.

My flexible schedule allows me to adjust to your pet’s feeding, walking, and medication times. Consistency is key, so I make sure my visits are always on time and unrushed—your pet gets my full attention every time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space and their animals with the same respect and care as I would my own. I follow the pet’s regular routines—feeding, walking, playtime, and any special instructions—to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure fresh water is always available, litter boxes are cleaned, and living areas are tidy. If medications are needed, I administer them exactly as directed. I also spend quality time giving affection and companionship, so your pet feels secure while you’re away. Before leaving, I ensure the home is secure, lights and doors are as you prefer, and you receive an update with photos so you know everything is safe and well.
“Ebony is fantastic and does not disappoint. Even though she wasn't feeling good, she still committed. She knows exactly how to warm up to your pets and took the time to spend quality time with each pet. My cats love her. I am so satisfied with her and definitely will have her again! Thank you Ebony!!!”
About: I have experience with many different dog breeds with different energy and health needs. I give all of the animals under my care the same treatment. I would take care of a super senior cat with the same dedication I would a golden retriever puppy. I'm not squeamish at all either, I'm comfortable dealing with body fluids and administering injection and medications. I have volunteered at multiple animal shelters so i've seen it all! Currently, my only commitments are helping to babysit younger family members, which is flexible schedule and only part-time. I have lots of time to not only take care of your animals, but also play with them and give them good entertainment My own dog is a runner, so I am hypervigilant about making sure animals don't dart out doors. I always make sure I physically see the animal and watch them to make sure they look healthy and happy, I don't just leave food and water and go home. I'm more than happy to give daily updates on animals i'm watching there are owners out of town and take pictures
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 6 years and have lots of experience with smaller breeds, especially female dogs. I’m patient, loving, and comfortable with all different personalities, from shy and nervous pups to more energetic or aggressive dogs. I make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and gets plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and love while they’re with me. I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and pet care throughout the week. For boarding and overnight stays, I’m available Thursday through Sunday and can give your pet lots of attention and care while they’re with me I live in a loving family home in the suburbs of Yonkers with my parents and brother, so there’s usually someone around to give your pet some extra love and attention. We have a fenced-in yard with plenty of room to play, and I can easily crate your dog if needed. There are also several nice parks and walking areas nearby, so they’ll have plenty of opportunities to get outside and explore. I keep treats and pet essentials on hand, and we’re close to veterinary care if anything unexpected ever comes up. My miniature Dachshund is very friendly with other animals, especially cats, and I always do my best to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and at home
“Sandra was very attentive and interested in learning about my kitty. She kept me posted while I was away and asked questions when she needed. She is very pleasant and clearly loves to care for animals.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Oona. She is so lovely. I came home to a very happy & healthy cat AND a clean house! She is very responsible, very engaged, very responsive and communicate - just perfect. We will be using her again and again!”
“Maria did a great job and was very communicative with me. Everything went smoothly and I greatly appreciate her help. She took photos every day and made sure that everything was squared away each day.”
“Jonathan committed to drop ins to medicate my cat while I was out of the country and he delivered. He is sociable, kind and gentle with my pets. He understands animals and that was highlighted when I observed his interactions with my pets (I also have 2 dogs). He is extremely dependable. In a few weeks I will be away for a few days and Jonathan will be my go to person. I trust him.”
About: With over 15 years of experience in the pet care industry, caring for animals isn’t just my job—it’s my passion. I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors, and I also have experience caring for cats, reptiles, rodents, and other exotic pets. As a lifelong animal lover and pet owner myself, I understand that every pet is a member of the family. I currently care for multiple animals of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to provide loving, dependable care while you’re away. In addition to my professional experience, I volunteer at a local animal shelter and have experience with dog training, allowing me to confidently work with dogs that have different temperaments and training needs. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, playtime, cuddles, medication, or extra patience, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m also bilingual, making it easy to communicate with a wider range of pet parents. My goal is to provide personalized, reliable care that gives you peace of mind and keeps your furry, feathered, or scaly family members happy and healthy. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I work remotely, which means I’m home throughout the day and can provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship for your pet. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate potty breaks, playtime, feedings, medication schedules, and plenty of one-on-one care. I’m available on weekdays, weekends, and most holidays. I also have reliable transportation and can provide pick-up and drop-off services for your convenience. For active pups, I also offer adventure hikes and structured pack walks (with compatible dogs) if that’s something you’re interested in. Whether your pet prefers an active outing or a relaxing day at home, I’m happy to tailor their care to their individual needs and routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore under supervision. My home is a spacious two-story house with a finished basement, which allows me to comfortably separate pets if needed for feeding, decompression, introductions, or if a dog simply prefers their own space. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or has special needs, I’ll provide patient, individualized care to help them feel safe and at home. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment and never leave pets unattended in the yard. Fresh water is always available, and I closely monitor all playtime and interactions. For multi-pet households, I prioritize slow introductions and only allow dogs to interact if they are comfortable and compatible. (If allowed) I’m experienced working with dogs of all sizes, as well as cats and other small animals, and I’m comfortable administering medications if needed. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in caring, capable hands.
“Melanie was an absolute gem! She made sure to update me with pictures and videos and followed instructions perfectly. She went above and beyond and played with my cat and made her feel safe. It was really wonderful to be able to trust Melanie in my home and with my pet. She is extremely respectful and an overall joy to know. I would recommend Melanie a thousand times! She will take care of your pets with the upmost love and care.”

Nicole did a great job looking after our cat, Warren! She was responsive and sent plenty of pictures. We always get nervous leaving him alone for extended periods of time. But having her visit him gave us peace of mind. Would highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for pet care in the greenwood lake area!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 523 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Central Valley. 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 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.

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.
