About: I’ve had dogs and cats throughout my life and genuinely love caring for animals. I’m experienced with pets of different personalities and enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and keeping them happy and comfortable. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and will treat your pets like my own! I work remote on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays so I can be home all day/night to keep them company. I’m able to take dogs on walks every two hours if needed and make sure cats are at peace (whatever that looks like for them). I’ll treat your home and pets with care and respect, follow their normal routines, and closely follow your instructions. I’ll prioritize their safety and comfort while keeping you updated with photos and messages.

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.

About: Dear fur parents—my name is Jane, and I have extensive experience with both cats and dogs. I’ve had pets my whole life, so I’m well-acquainted with the joys and difficulties of caring for animals. Having worked with a variety of temperaments—from playful and outgoing to more reserved and cautious—I feel equipped for the job. I look forward to looking after your fluffy loved one 🐶🐈‍⬛ I primarily work from home, so pet care fits seamlessly into my everyday schedule. As someone who has had pets throughout my life, I appreciate the importance of checking in on them throughout the day and attending to their needs. I live in a quiet, three-bedroom apartment, which provides ample space for sitting and boarding—my boyfriend, who also has significant experience with cats, lives with me and works from home.

About: Since a very young age taking care of animals have been a passion of mine. Always trying to rescue and adopt all the doggies and kitties off the streets and helping them with anything I could. I currently work in an animal hospital as a veterinary nurse and I take care and treat pets on a daily basis. I can handle pets of various sizes and temperaments, is all about making them feel safe and comfortable. Making sure they get the respect love and care they deserve is my priority. I’m very passionate about pets and love them and care for them as if they were my own. I currently work full time at an animal hospital. When it comes to boarding doggies I’ll take them to work with me during the day and during the night they will be at my home. My days off they will be free around the house under supervision. At work they will be in a room or cage according to their size but they get to go out at least 3 times a day while I do my work shift. We have a yard in the animal hospital and they get to run and play. Once I’m home I have a semi fenced yard and they get to play and run some more under supervision. I have cats in my home so during the night the doggies will have to sleep in a crate for safety reasons.

About: I grew up in a big family with lots of pets including dogs, cats, rodents, and birds. I have been successful in self-taught basic training of dogs. I am a graduate student who plans to have pet care be a source of income that fits around my schedule. I have classes during the week and currently live on campus which is why I cannot provide care in my home. I have owned many pets in my life and have cared for different ages from puppies and kittens to seniors. I enjoy promoting enrichment activities and physical exercise.

About: Hi! I'm Jenn, an animal lover based offering attentive, reliable care for your dogs and cats. As a cat owner myself, I understand the patience, routines, and little details that keep pets happy and comfortable. I've cared for dogs of all sizes: feeding, walking, playtime, and plenty of affection and I'm comfortable administering medications, so pets with special needs are always welcome. Whether your pup needs a midday walk, drop-in visits while you're away, or a cozy overnight stay in my apartment, I'll treat them with love and patience. You'll get timely updates, photos, and real peace of mind while you're away. I'm also fully bilingual in English and Spanish. ¡Hablo español, así que también atiendo con gusto a familias hispanohablantes! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priority. I'd love to meet you and your furry family member! I have a full time job during weekdays. With 3 on site office days and 2 remote days. I'm available weekdays after 5pm and weekends. In my home (boarding): I keep a clean, calm, secure apartment with no other resident pets, so your dog or cat has a quiet space and my full attention. I keep doors and windows secured, never leave a pet unattended in unfamiliar surroundings, and follow the feeding, walking, and medication schedule you provide. Leashes always go on before we step outside. In your home (drop-in visits & walks): I follow your instructions exactly — feeding, fresh water, litter or potty breaks, playtime, and any medications. I respect your home, lock up carefully, and leave everything as I found it. On walks, I keep dogs leashed and stick to safe, familiar routes. For every service: I send photo and video updates so you always know your pet is happy and safe, I stay reachable throughout the booking, and I always do a free meet-and-greet first. If anything ever seems off with your pet's health or behavior, I'll contact you right away and follow your emergency plan.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life! I grew up with two dogs, three cats, and five hamsters, so there’s never been a dull moment! My Beagle, Argos, was my first best friend. He was full of energy, and we were practically inseparable! I also cared for him through his senior years, which taught me so much about patience and understanding older pets. Then came Sumo, our Chow Chow, who was the complete opposite! He acted more like a cat, loved his independence, and enjoyed long walks. I’ve also cared for my neighbor’s Pit Bull and a family member’s Australian Shepherd. I’ve even traveled all the way to Amsterdam to dog sit for family! I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters with both cats and dogs, where I gained experience working with stressed and nervous animals and learned how important patience and a gentle approach can be. From energetic pups to laid-back seniors, I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Big or small, I’ll treat your furry friend like my own, and I can’t wait to meet them! 🐾 I work remotely part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your furry friends! I’m available Monday through Thursday after 4 PM and have completely open availability on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or some extra love and attention while you’re away, I’m happy to work around their routine! I have a large, fully fenced backyard where your furry friends can safely run around, play, and get plenty of exercise! Outdoor playtime is always supervised, so your pet will never be left outside alone. I love spending time with animals, whether it’s playing fetch, going for walks, or just relaxing and giving them lots of cuddles! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. I’ll follow their usual feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions you provide. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll treat your space with respect and make sure your furry friend feels just as loved and cared for as they would with you. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates throughout the day so you know they’re in good hands!

I treat every pet like they’re my own whether that’s going on fun walks, giving belly rubs, or just being a comforting presence. I know how much pets mean to their people, so I’m all about keeping them happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently a student in college but I still make time for pet care because it’s something I genuinely enjoy.

If they stay with me, I provide a cozy, friendly environment where they can feel right at home. Every pet is different, so I always take the time to understand their personality and needs.

“Shawn is awesome. He came for a meet and greet and our two cats were comfortable with him right away. Our boys have a special diet & one needs insulin and Shawn handled all of it with no issues - he even made his visits earlier than requested to keep the boys on their schedule. He’s very communicative and gives detailed notes on the visits - and lots of pictures. It was all very reassuring and our boys were happy and relaxed upon our return. Will continue to use Shawn as long as he’s available. Highly recommended! Thanks, Shawn!”

Araxie took wonderful care of Ella and Ira while I was away for a week. She was reliable, communicative, and sent updates and photos that put my mind at ease the whole trip. Both cats were clearly relaxed and well looked after when I got home, and she left everything tidy. I'd happily book her again and recommend her to any cat owner.

Danae was great! A friend and I were both out of the country and live close to each other, so she was checking in on both of our pets. She was really good about coordinating everything and communicating with us while we were away (even when I was terrible at responding lol). She’s super friendly and I felt totally comfortable having her take care of my cats. Would definitely book her again!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Dobbs Ferry

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Dobbs Ferry is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $32 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 October 2026, there are 12,309 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Dobbs Ferry. 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 .

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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dobbs Ferry. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 , 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.
