“We felt very comfortable and confident knowing our cats were cared for well by Abhilash. He sent great updates and photos while we were away, and our pets seemed to really enjoy his company. Everything was in excellent condition when we returned home. We would definitely use his services again!”
About: I am a just starting at Pace Law and missing my animals deeply. I have made a summer job the past few years dog sitting. I have a wide variety of experience, from caring for three 60lbs+ lap dogs for a week to three cats I would barely see. I love every animal like it is my own (smothered in love) and I make sure to take lots of pictures (I can’t help it!). I am starting my law school journey and I am looking to schedule in some animal time. I am completely free after 4 most days for walks or dinner time and have open weekends. I have lots of experience with animals of many different needs and can easily adapt to instruction. I will be sure to love your baby and provide care above and beyond.
“Vivian did such a wonderful job taking care of our cat, Gordon. She took great photos for the report cards, gave him lots of attention, and was on time for the visits. She clearly loves cats and is very responsible. We would book her services again!”
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.
“Margaret was on time, paid great attention to my two lovies, along with have me updates and pictures on how they were while away. She was also there the entire time she said she was, which meant a lot to me.”
“Rene did an excellent job watching my cats and making sure my one shy cat, Majesty, got his insulin. She was attention detailed and made sure they were fed, had water, and the litter was clean. I would highly recommend Rene to watch your pets.”
“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.”
“Brandon F. was FANTASTIC! He gave regular updates and sent photos of our Lucy to us. It was so great to be able to relax and know that our beloved pet was in good hands with Brandon. Would absolutely book him again!”
“Maggie took care of my cats as if they were my own, and that is the highest praise I could possibly give anyone. Tira in particular is normally super cautious of new people and very slow to come out of hiding and eat/play, but Maggie was able to make Tira feel at ease and bring her out of her shell very quickly, and got her flopping around and exposing her belly on day 2 which is unheard of for new humans! Will absolutely use Maggie again.”
“Sarah looked after my three cats at very short notice when I had to go out of town unexpectedly and she was wonderful! Incredibly diligent and kind, she went out of her way to make sure my three fur babies were taken care of, even making sure Gertie (who loves her food!) didn’t steal the other two’s food. She checked in with me twice a day with photos and updates, which gave me huge piece of mind while I was away. I can’t recommend Sarah highly enough! Will be booking her again, that’s for sure!”
“Catie has taken care of my cats on several occasions and they are always well cared for and happy. I have been able to count on Catie for planned trips as well as last minute requests. She is kind, responsible, and a pleasure to interact with. I have a senior cat who requires insulin 2xs per day. It is a wonderful feeling to know that he is in good hands while I am away.”
About: I dog sat for the same family for 2 years during their family vacations. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats I love all animals and would love to care for yours ! I work part time during the week and I am also a student, my weekends are usually free or mornings before 12 during the week. I live in a spacious townhouse with six other girls who are all animal lovers, so your pet will get lots of love, attention, and company during their stay! There are stairs throughout the townhouse, but I’m happy to accommodate your pet based on their individual needs. We don’t have a fenced-in yard, but there is plenty of space nearby for walks, outdoor time, and bathroom breaks. I don’t currently have a crate in my home, so if your pet is crate-trained or requires one, you would need to provide their crate for their stay. My main priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me!
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.
“Christian watched our cat and stayed at our place for 5 days and he was so awesome. He was always keeping us posted on how things were going and sending us pictures and videos, and just really made us feel at ease that all was going well. Has a very calm and friendly approach with animals, our cat loved him! Very trustworthy guy and we will absolutely book with him again :)”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life! I love playing and walking with dogs, but also love the downtime and chill attitudes cats have. Taking care of pets brings me a lot of joy and excited to care for your fur babies! I’m currently working a fully remote job. I live an active lifestyle so rest assured your dog will be walked! If you have a cat, I can also come by during the workday to check in on them. I live in a two bedroom apartment with my partner with wonderful natural light and non-smoking environment. Your pets will have peace of mind that the place is just for them.
“Jennalynn was awesome with Pepper. She is very knowledgeable and has a lot of experience with rescue dogs which is hard to find. I have a fearful reactive dog I recently adopted, so I had to give her 100 details about her background. Her communication to come up with an intro plan made things so much easier. I highly recommend Jennalynn for all dog needs!”
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

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Elmsford
She was absolutely exceptional! Communication was excellent throughout the weekend, and most importantly, it was clear that she genuinely cared about my cats. That’s something I value tremendously when trusting someone to look after them. She was attentive, thoughtful, and reliable, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. I would absolutely book with her again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to friends, family, and neighbors. Highly recommend!
Michael was absolutely fantastic taking care of my 3 cats. He took great pictures and made sure my babies got love, as well as playtime. He was patient with my shy girl as well, very understanding of timid cat personalities. He let me know that my litter needed to be changed and took care of everything. I would absolutely rebook! Thank you!!
When I was away for a few days, Alex came help taking care of my kitties, and did a wonderful job. From the time our booking was confirmed, through the days I was traveling, she provided great communications, and sent updates after every visit. Alex took great care of my kitties and I am very appreciative of her. I highly recommend her services!
Marilyn took great care of our cat, Louie, and we felt very comfortable knowing he was in her care. She visited once a day, spent time playing with him, and always sent photo updates, which we really appreciated. Her communication was excellent throughout, and she was consistently reliable and trustworthy. It was clear she genuinely cared about Louie. We would absolutely book Marilyn again and highly recommend her to other pet parents.
absolutely loved having catie as our cat sitter! She was amazing with our cat Charlotte — patient, gentle, and very caring. She sent us daily updates, which truly gave us peace of mind during our trip. Charlotte can be shy, but she slowly warmed up to her, and that meant the world to us. We felt completely confident and happy knowing Charlotte was in such good hands. Thank you so much for everything — we would definitely book with you again!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Elmsford is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $33 per visit.

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
