About: Ever since I was born I have lived with a dog in the house. Savannah then Dusty then Chloe, and now Kylo. I wake up and feed Kylo, get him fresh water, take him for walks, and play with him. When my dad goes away, I stay at his house and watch his dogs, Winston and Guinness. I also used to work for a dog groomer watching, bathing, drying, and brushing dogs. As of right now, I am unemployed so I am able to work my schedule around yours. This may change in the future, but if a job comes along I will try to uphold any agreement made. I will ensure that the time your pet spends with me, they will feel loved and cared for. As I love almost every animal I meet. I know how to take care of them and will make it my responsibility they get the care they need.
About: I have loved every dog since the moment I saw one and am proud to be a dog mom since the age of 7! I am here to provide your fur baby with the utmost care and love❤️I have provided services for friends and neighbors that includes multiple walks, feeding, medicine administering, and hugs! I have grooming experience as well. I will provide updates frequently and am always available if you need to reach out! I am available mornings and early afternoons Monday - Fridays. Depending on the date, I am able to make myself available on the weekends. :) I live on a beautiful walkway on the Hudson River with an amazing and spacious park attached. It is the perfect pet haven with stunning city views! At home, we have a cozy dog bed, lots of toys, a fence, and plenty of snacks and water.
About: Hi there! I'm Montana, an animal-lover located in Washington Heights. I know that our sweet animals are part of our families, and I treat them as such: lots of eye contact, love, cuddles, and attention. I'm a pet-whisperer, and can not only converse with dogs and cats when they're in a good mood, but can also calm them down in moments of stress or anxiety. I've raised two dogs from puppies and three cats from kittens throughout my life, as well as taken care of multiple friends' pets while they were away. I have experience taking care of elderly dogs and cats as well as young rapscallions. I love walking, and look forward to adventures with your pal. I'm very aware of how much an animal's mental state affects their life and happiness, and I make sure to never be on my phone or distracted when I'm with a furry friend. They need and deserve all the love in the world, and I'm here to give it! I'm a writer, artist, and musician, and am currently on a very flexible work-from-home schedule. For dogs: I love walking, and look forward to incorporating adventures with your pup into my day. For cats: If you need someone to come check on your friend during the day, I'd be happy to do so. Weekdays will be my bread and butter, but I can make select weekends available if need be. I enter every animal's environment with respect, knowing it's theirs, not mine. I adapt easily to each animal's spirit, vibe, and wishes, and play with them when they want to play, sit with them when they want to sit, and treat their (and your) space with genuine care while I am a guest there.
About: I am a pet lover, I’ve owned cats and dogs my whole life. I am empathetic and hard working, so your pets would be in thoughtful hands with me! I fully remote every weekday so I am around for every moment. I hope to be honest with you and build a great schedule based on your pet’s needs. I live in an apartment alone with my cat. I have an elevator in case your pups prefer it. I live around several parks great for taking dogs on walks.
About: I’ve cared for lot of different dogs from anxious dogs, to the happy high spirited ones. In most cases I’ve found dogs away from home just need a little more attention & a little more patience. I like to set up their routine per owner instructions of course, and keep there life like business as usually if not better. Since I’m on a work from home Flexible schedule, I can dedicate a lot more time to tend to their needs through each day. I have very structured, and tend to be an early riser. I like to run or workout in the morning so typically would bring the dog with me to the park In the am with walks through out the day as I tend to run most errands walking distance. Etc All I ask is your informed me of any allergies, health or non health related problems so I can prepare for their stay. Communication is key.
“Jenny was absolute perfection, following every single detail of our care instructions without missing a beat. She kept us constantly in the loop with helpful updates and pictures so we always knew how our cats were doing. When unexpected changes arose with our cats' needs, she accommodated our last-minute extra requests. Knowing they were in such attentive hands made being away completely stress-free!”
About: I have experience pet sitting and dog walking, and I have a Black Lab and a Catahoula mix of my own. I love animals and would be happy to help care for your furry friends, whether they need walks, playtime, or extra attention while you’re away! My rates are flexible, and I’m happy to discuss pricing to find a rate that works well for both of us :) My schedule is open and flexible for the moment. I am available for pet sitting, dog walking, or drop in visits to make sure your pets get the attention they need throughout the week. As a dog owner myself, I have experience with crating, feeding on a consistent schedule, and making sure dogs always have access to fresh water. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they receive lots of love, attention, and care.
“I found that Chloe communicates well, follows instructions, has a good demeanor with my dog and seems sincerely interested in providing him with the best possible care.”
About: Hello! I’m Virginia, a passionate animal lover offering attentive pet sitting and house sitting services. Having been a devoted pet parent to my beloved Mini pincher Cookie for many years, I deeply understand the bond between pets and their families. I know firsthand how important it is to leave your home and companion in hands you can trust completely. While I am building my professional sitting roster, my hands-on experience raising and caring for my own dog daily—from puppyhood through senior care—has equipped me with strong skills in routine management, feeding, gentle handling, and monitoring pet well-being. Each day includes scheduled feedings, fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, and monitoring stress signals. Evenings involve play and potty breaks, while weekly duties include home maintenance like mail collection and homeowner updates. I will prioritize safety by maintaining familiar routines, and creating secure areas so your pets feel completely at ease and your home is well-cared for.
About: Hello there! Thank you for checking my profile. I basically grew up around dogs my whole life and individually owned (survived) a Siberian Husky for 15 years. Siberian Huskies are my favorites, so if you have a rebellious Husky, I got you 😉 I am an expert when it comes to animal behavior and can assure that I am able to anticipate their needs, and understand them deeply so your pets will, GUARANTEED, love me! Can’t find a trustworthy person to take care of your pets during holidays? I am ideal to book if you’re looking for somebody responsible, clean, and that can stay with your pets during long trips/vacations. A meet and greet is required prior to booking to ensure we are a good match. Feel free to text me if you have any questions! 🐾 We can negotiate regarding hours. Please feel free to inquire. If you are going away due to the holidays, I can stay for multiple weeks with your pet until you are back. I do not only provide great care, but also can read your dog body language and provide exactly what they need and when they need it. I am organized and LOVE a clean space, so if you like your place immaculate clean, we will get along GREATLY!
“Anna-Laurie was a blessing, through and through. She took GREAT care of our two lil feline furballs— with excellent report cards that were so personal, thorough, and full of photos. She has an excellent personality to boot 👢Will 110% rebook with her in the future (and you should too).”
About: I grew up with dogs and took care of the dogs in the neighborhood for extra cash in high school. I love animals and I even found a way to incorporate that love into my undergrad psychology education at Oswego with courses in canine behavior. I'm currently a work from home graduate student working towards my MA in psychology so I have plenty of felxibility to help you fill in the gaps for your pet care needs. I live in a quiet building across the street from a park for routine exercise if your fur baby happens to be staying with me. There's always time for a good walk and a nap.
About: Growing up in a rural area, animals were always a big part of my life. Some of my favorite memories are of growing up alongside my dogs—playing with them outdoors, watching them explore, and learning from a young age that caring for a pet means much more than simply feeding them. Over the years, I’ve helped raise several dogs, taking responsibility for their feeding, exercise, routines, and overall well-being. My experience eventually extended beyond my own pets, as neighbors trusted me to care for their animals while they were away on vacation. These experiences have made me comfortable with different pets and personalities and taught me how important patience, attentiveness, and genuine care are when someone entrusts you with an animal they love. I currently model and work part-time, and my days are pretty much free, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I’m available any day of the week and can work around your pet’s normal routine, whether that means morning walks, afternoon playtime, feeding schedules, or evening check-ins. I want your pet to feel comfortable, cared for, and never rushed while they’re with me. I understand that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big responsibility. I am always respectful of your space, boundaries, and household rules. I will follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide closely, while making sure they are safe, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention. I want you to feel confident knowing your pet is being treated with the same care I would give my own.
About: I have fostered a 4 month old poodle for 2 months. I’d say I personally have more experience babysitting than pet sitting but that being said, I have a huge heart for nurturing and caring I am currently working a part time job but my schedule is pretty flexible so I have a lot of time on my hands! My daily/weekly routine just consists of working and hanging out with friends! Unfortunately I can not host pet sitting at my home for my land owner doesn’t allow pets inside, but if I were to work at your home, I would act accordingly with respect!
“Elisandro did a great job and made friends with Willow. Willow was well groomed when I got back. This is evidence he was very much at ease and well taken care of. Thank you Elisandro!!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Edgewater
Elena was amazing! She not only kept Juni entertained but also went over his commands and rewarded him. She listened to our details and rotated his toys so he wouldn't eat them. Juni is so energetic and Elena left him so tired, he was able to rest for the remainder of his time alone.
Ryan was great with Bandit and Nico! He was able to accommodate a last-minute booking, which I really appreciated. He was reliable, communicative, and took good care of the pups during his drop-in visits. I’d definitely recommend him and would happily book with him again!
Zoe went above and beyond caring for both our 90-pound adult dog and our high-energy puppy! I’ve always been the type of person who is extremely nervous about leaving my dogs in someone else’s care, to the point that I’ve never hired a dog walker or pet sitter before. However, after getting our puppy and having a prior commitment that meant we’d be away from home for an extended period, we decided to take the leap and reach out to Zoe. We couldn’t be happier that we did! Zoe didn’t just meet our expectations; she completely exceeded them. She even arrived a little early to make sure she had all the information she needed for a successful visit. Throughout the entire time, she kept us updated and maintained great communication, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we returned home, both dogs were happy, well cared for, and properly exercised. As someone who is very particular about who I trust with my dogs, I cannot recommend Zoe enough! I would absolutely rebook with her in a heartbeat, and we’ve already started discussing our future dog-walking needs with her. Thank you so much, Zoe! We’re so grateful to have found you! ❤️
Neil did a wonderful job with my two Yorkies , Jasper and Jasmine. Prior to officially caring for my dogs he asked me very important questions regarding their habits and their personalities. He also met with me twice to meet them in person and took them on a “trial” walk to further get to know them. He followed all of my instructions and asked for clarity where warranted; which I more than appreciated. His status updates pre and post each visit were thorough. I also loved the pictures of them on their walks and when he would play catch with them. My dogs bonded with Neil as he treated my two babies like they were his. I will definitely be using Neil’s dog walking services again and have already recommended him to my bestie.
Vanessa has watched Frankie, our 3-month old mini-Aussie with boatloads of energy, twice now, and both times have been absolutely amazing. Frankie loves getting to play and run around with Vanessa, and has even learned new tricks! We really appreciate Vanessa's time and patience and would recommend her to anyone in need of a caring petsitter!
Melissa was amazing and we will definitely book her again. She was so sweet with our new pup Stella and really helped us out in a pinch when our previous dog walker couldn’t make it. She sent great photos and detailed recaps of their walks and play time every day. Communication was quick and easy. She even sent pics and interacted with our cat whom she was not looking in on. Thank you so much Melissa!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Edgewater is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $44 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 November 2026, there are 26,731 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Edgewater. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Edgewater 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!
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Edgewater with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 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.
