“I had a wonderful experience with Lori and would absolutely recommend her as a pet sitter! I booked her for the first time to take care of my 1yo kitten over a long weekend. Lori was very communicative and set up a meet-and-greet before the booking, which immediately made me feel comfortable. She is friendly, personable, and clearly cares about the pets she looks after. She was punctual for every visit and did her best to send pictures and updates, even though my very shy boy spent most of the time hiding. My cat is not good with strangers (still being socialized), but Lori was patient and understanding, respected his boundaries, and followed all of my care instructions carefully. She truly went above and beyond by vacuuming his litter area and washing all of his dishes & serving spoons at the end of the weekend! I would definitely recommend Lori and will be coming to her the next time I need a sitter.”

“Jorge took excellent care of our cat while we were out of town, and was able to fit her into his schedule without much advance notice. He was very communicative and helpful (he even vacuumed up some litter!) and I knew our cat was in good hands while we were away.”

About: As a full-time teacher and lifelong dog lover, I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Friends, family, and coworkers often rely on me to board their pets, knowing they’ll be loved and well cared for while they’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and passionate about making sure each dog feels safe, happy, and at home. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, or cuddles, I’ll treat them like part of my family. I work full-time as a teacher, but I’m available for boarding on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I dedicate my free time to caring for pets and make sure every dog gets plenty of love, attention, and outdoor time when staying with me. As a full-time teacher and lifelong animal lover, I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life. Friends, family, and coworkers often trust me to board their dogs or check in on their pets when they’re away. I recently rescued two kittens, adding to my experience caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I’m patient, responsible, and truly enjoy giving every pet the love and attention they deserve. Whether your pup needs playtime and long walks or your cat just needs a friendly visit, I’ll treat them like family. I offer a calm, loving home environment where your dog can feel safe and relaxed. I follow each pet’s normal routine and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. While I can’t board cats, I’m happy to care for them in their own home—making sure they’re fed, comfortable, and given plenty of affection. Your pets’ happiness and safety are always my top priorities
About: Hi my name is Wayne Smith I'm 20 years old and i love pets ! Especially dogs and cats. I was raised with a cat who is part of my family for 13 years and sometime i play with her and carry her like if she a baby because that how she usually be with me and then she had a babies but she had 4 so we gave 2 away and kept one so we stay with Jolie and Melo and i play with both of them. They are really sweet cats and i once try to take my cat out for a walk but that did not happen because she did not want to go so i left her alone. I also feed them and give them water
“Shadow and I got lucky with this young woman! She is a great fit for shadow. He’s a big sweet boy with separation anxiety. She knew how to take charge and keep herself and him safe. We are very happy with the service she provided. And we get to see her again”

“Elisa was a wonderful sitter for our two kitties. I greatly appreciated the extra effort she took to work with us when our schedule changed due to bad weather. And I know Jack enjoyed getting a little play time!”

About: I’ve had my two cats for about three years now, and we’ve built a routine together around feeding, playing, sleeping, and everything in between. Every day when I walk through the door, they’re the first two to greet me. I make sure they’re always fed, clean, hydrated, well cared for, and most importantly, safe. I work full time during the week, so I’m generally unavailable during the day, but I’m usually free in the evenings after work and have full availability on weekends. I live in a two-bedroom, ground-floor apartment with a private, enclosed patio where my cats can safely explore outdoors without the risk of escaping. We also have an extra bedroom set up so they have their own space and time when they want it.

About: I provide daily updates with pictures and videos, so pet owners feel comfortable and connected with me while I care for their pets and have a peace of mind while separated I currently work part time for an after school program from 1:30-5:30pm. I’m available to do walks/drop in visits with your pets in the mornings and evenings during the week. As for the weekends I have open availability. I care for every pet based on their individual routine, with a focus on safety, comfort, and building trust. For dogs, I follow their walking schedule, exercise needs, and any specific instructions, always providing water and breaks when needed. For cats, I respect their comfort level, keep their food, water, and litter box clean, and provide playtime or quiet companionship based on their personality. I always follow the owner's care instructions and provide updates for peace of mind.

About: Hello! I’ve been in the pet care industry for 3 years professionally, and almost my whole life personally through friends and family. I’m an animal lover, and I’m ready to meet some new friends! I used to service dogs in East Midtown and have experience with many breeds and temperaments. I also own cats and have worked professionally as a cat sitter in Chelsea/Downtown. I recently moved to the area and can offer walks, sittings, and boarding. We can set up a free meet and greet to see how we can work together to help your companion thrive. I work 10am through 6pm Monday-Friday for walks, extra charge for anything outside of that time frame and weekends/holidays. Inquire about sittings/boardings. Safety is always my priority when it comes to any sort of service. I follow any given instructions and communicate with the parents if I have any questions/concerns. I’m also CPR certified.

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life! I was raised with cats and two dobermans, and I began regularly pet sitting locally in my early teens. I’m comfortable with administering medicine, and I love getting to know pets and taking care of their needs! I am knowledgeable about training and am detail oriented to make sure your pet is comfortable and following their daily routine as closely as possible. I currently have two kitties at home and appreciate how important it is to find an attentive pet sitter for your beloved pets! Thank you in advance for trusting me with your sweet animal(s)! I’m currently working part time, and I am able to comfortably arrange my schedule to fit your pets’ needs! While I do not board, I am regularly available to stay overnight to house/pet sit! I understand how important it is to build trust between pet owners and sitters as well as between the pets themselves and their sitters! I am detail oriented and will check with you to make sure I understand your pet and their needs, and I love to send updates and photos to check in with owners!
“Jennifer did a great job with my two senior kitties who, while social, are not used to being taken care of by strangers. My shyer cat immediately took a liking to her, and I came home to two calm cats simply happy to see me -- no cat-grudges to be had. Jennifer was quick with communication, and reached out to let me know when my dry-food auto feeders were being wonky, even though I told her she didn't have to worry about the dry food. Overall, a great experience!”
“Ana did a great job taking care of our kitties, even though they are super shy and hid most of the time. She went above and beyond looking for them and making sure they were safe! Absolutely will ask for her help again in the future.”

About: He’ll there! My name is Jessica— an active, dependable pet caregiver currently working toward my credentials because your animals deserve someone who takes this seriously. I’m available middays, evenings, and weekends, and I happily offer home stays for pets who do best in a cozy, familiar environment. I’m based in the Co-Op city and love prioritizing neighborhood clients — there’s something special about being the trusted sitter on your block. I also serve the Southeast Bronx along the 5 and 6 train corridors, making me accessible to a wide range of families across the area. I’m strong and experienced handling larger dogs, and I welcome medically complex care — whether that means administering medication, managing special diets, or keeping a close eye on a senior or post-op pup. My community roots run deep, and that means you’ll always get honest communication, photo updates, and a sitter who truly cares. 🌻 Is important to me that a space is kept clean, and habits are the overtime to maintain a space and animal health. Forgetting to do a litter box, one day happens, but forgetting to do it constantly can lead to your pet killing a fungal infection, and having a lot of pain in the limbs they walk on. I like to take a systems thinking approach, and things like a few times a week and cleaning your space everyday and securing unsafe spaces is super important . I work in retail and the service industry so I would love to transition out of that soon as hour can be short or sparse this time of year and build my photography business. Taking care of pets and having pet models for my portfolio would be great as well as the time to be active and have fun as I focus on building these foundational skills. I’ve already done the hectic schedule of chasing shifts downtown for the last 2 years so if I could have slower days and have clients closer to me that would be great. To me a very successful play session involves observing the pet where they are,and how they interact because I am a guest in their space firstly, and giving them attention and love is my first priority. I don’t care that I may start out at a Lower rate or XYNZ is out of my pay grade. I’m not leaving a fecal mess or putting my headphones on, and turning Netflix and putting my feet up during a session because I can . The TV will always be there but the emotions and potential reactive response of a pet that might start biting plants or getting into stuff they shouldn’t —can lead to a permanent result. I want the pets I care to stay interested or at least rest and feel comfortable in their space and know that some one is there to feed them and respond to their needs or at least be willing to figure out what they need and not dismiss them. I have been trained by another company called Big City Wolf on proper dog handling and plan to get my animal CPR training this March and apply to work at the new ACS center in Coop city .

About: We’re Justin and Esther—animal lovers with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Justin has had pets his whole life, starting with a sweet cat named China, who had a litter of kittens he raised until their passing. Today, we care for Lunae Lux, our energetic Siberian Husky, and Fayth, Justin’s affectionate cat. For Esther, being surrounded by animals was always a dream—and marrying Justin made it a reality. It’s allowed her to bond deeply with both Lunae and Fayth, fulfilling her lifelong wish to share her days with furry companions. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or training, we’re passionate about giving every pet the care and love they deserve. Animals are the first and most important priority of the day, afternoon and night. They are like children in that aspect, or fur children as people say. My cat and dog get along very well. I have trained my Siberian Husky to be more understanding and caring to smaller animals such as cats.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Eastchester
Kathryn is a dream!m pet sitter! She has been so lovely to us and our cats from the beginning. She is communicative, detail oriented, and most importantly so caring and thoughtful towards our kitties. She sent us lots of updates with pictures and gave us peace of mind throughout our trip. We will 100% be using her again and would highly recommend to others.

This was our first time using Rover, and Ana made it an excellent experience! She took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away for a week, making sure they were well-fed, comfortable, and happy. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats and would absolutely book with Ana again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!
Lori took great care of our cat Pablo while we were away for over a week. She followed all the instructions we left for her so well and even managed to give Pablo his liquid oral medication with no issues which is a challenge! We really appreciate Lori’s help and plan to definitely reach out to her again in the future.

We had a great experience with [Name] caring for our cats. She took the time to play with our very antsy cat and gave our shy, scaredy cat the space she needed, exactly as we requested. It was clear that she paid attention to each cat’s personality and needs. She was also very thoughtful about the little details, including rinsing out their food bowls so there were no lingering smells and making sure their medication was given with their food. We appreciated how attentive and caring she was while looking after our cats. We would definitely feel comfortable having her care for them again!

She was amazing! She did everything exactly as requested, including changing the pee pads, refreshing Oreo’s water, cleaning up after him, giving him his lick mat, and spending time playing with him. She also kept everything clean and followed all of my instructions perfectly. I really appreciated the care and attention she gave Oreo, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. I would definitely book her again and highly recommend her!

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

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 .

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.
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.
