Booked Caleigh for a somewhat impromptu trip of town- appreciated her quick response and flexibility. She was communicative and a wizard with our shy cats. Thank you so much ☺️

About: Apart from having pets of my own, I've cared for several pets while their owners were away. I absolutely love befriending new animals. I walk dogs in my neighborhood quite frequently. I'm capable of handling animals of all sizes and I'm open to handling dogs who aren't so friendly. Pet care for me is a part time job so I have a lot of time to care for your furry friends! I'm very flexible with my time, so most times work for me. I have fully functioning air conditioning in all rooms in my house, so your pets will never suffer any heat detriment. I also have a friendly dog named popcorn to keep your dog company. I also have a small dog pool if your dog is a water lover as well.

Maria took excellent care of our cat for a week, 2 visits a day. She was there like clockwork - and sent us photos, which we loved. I appreciated how communicative she was, especially with a snowstorm coming. Would 100 % use her again.

Mia was terrific, and I highly recommend her services. She took excellent care of my cat and sent me fun photos from her visits. I met Mia for a walkthrough before my trip, and she was very professional and personable. She obviously cares very much about animals, and I trusted her completely with my cat. Thank you, Mia!

About: I had my very own dog when she was born until she passed. I absolutely love animals and will treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, I can make sure your furry friend feels loved, safe, and happy while you’re away. I’m patient, caring, and always follow your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable. You can count on me to give your pet lots of attention—and I’ll even send photo updates so you can see how great they’re doing Currently work a full time job weekdays to provide for my daughter and I. I’m available both Saturday and Sundays after 10:30am that way I can spend time with your fur baby and love/care for them as my own. When I care for pets, whether it’s in my home or a client’s, I can make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow their normal routine for meals, walks, and playtime so everything feels familiar to them. I love giving them lots of attention, cuddles, and play! If I’m in a client’s home, I’m always respectful and keep things tidy. I also like to send updates and cute pictures so you can see how happy your pet is while you’re away.

Marta has been fantastic with drop-ins for my cat Bieber. She makes sure to provide timely updates and photos and spends time with him in addition to giving his medication. She also makes sure to include anything notable about the visit. Would recommend!!!

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for them is truly second nature to me. I grew up managing large horse farms, where I was responsible for a wide variety of animals—from horses and livestock to, of course, dogs and cats. This hands-on experience has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, routines, and the level of care each pet deserves. I was also a competitive equestrian for 18 years, and my dogs were always right there by my side, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pets. Today, I have a 7-month-old Labrador, so I’m very familiar with puppy energy, training consistency, and lots of playtime! Whether your pet needs long walks, structured care, or just some extra love and attention, I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m happy to accommodate specific routines and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I work from home creating a flexible schedule.

Alyssa is amazing! She was very responsive and organized. She took good care of our cat and left detailed visit notes. She was our first Rover cat sitter experience and we were glad that we were able to have her taking care of our cat while we enjoyed our vacation. Will def rebook with her for our future trips.

About: Im here to care for the elderly dogs and disabled dogs who can’t be left home alone and need ample 1:1 attention. I have cared for many senior animals, and know how complex it can be to tend to their changing needs in their golden and twilight years. Have you been worried about leaving your dog home alone while you go out for appointments, errands and social commitments? Are you stressed and need a break from caregiving to tend to our own self care? I’ll stay with your beloved canine family member making sure they are cared for and comfortable when you need to be elsewhere. I currently have availability most days in my schedule as long as i know ahead of time! I’m happy to structure your dog’s need and routines into my own schedule. I offer drop in visits and daytime and evening dog sitting in your home. I am able to bring your dog outside to get fresh air and enjoy the outdoors in your yard. If your home has stairs and your dog needs to be carried, we will discuss safety. On a case by case basis I may be able to take your small dog for a short walk up and down the block, or in the stroller if they use one. My animal clients are elderly and or disabled and typically stay home. Regarding feeding, I do not handle raw meat or pork products. We will work together to meet your dog’s individual needs and customize their care! Size of dog, distance, length and number of visits per day are all on a case by case basis.

Margaret is seriously the best! From the second she walked in, Max and Romeo were obsessed with her. Max can be a little anxious at times, but she knew exactly how to approach him, calm and gently. She handled both of them with so much love and confidence. She kept me updated and made everything so easy and stress-free. Dogs love her, and it’s easy to see why. I’m definitely booking her again!

About: My name is Robert and I absolutely love dogs in every way. I have had dogs my whole life and know how to care for different breeds with wide variety of behaviors and needs. Dogs are just as much family as anyone else and deserve to be treated that way. I’m based in beautiful Hartsdale, NY, just steps away from a large park that’s perfect for walks and playtime. I have a fully fenced-in yard, providing a safe and fun space for dogs to roam freely and get plenty of fresh air. I also partner with two other experienced Rover sitters, which means your pet will always have round-the-clock care and attention — 24/7! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine — I have open availability throughout the week, so I’m always ready to provide walks, playtime, feedings, and overnight care as needed.. I live in a house with a nice big fenced in backyard and I also have a very large dog kennel that can be used if needed. Plenty of room to run around.

About: I’ve had a dog my entire life and I have worked with dogs in Animal Shelters in New York and North Carolina. I’ve worked with all types of dogs and I have had a great experience each time! I am currently working Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and I am free Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday and would love to care for dogs in my free time. As a dog owner, I understand the importance of trusting the person caring for your dog. I will keep a close eye on your dog because I know that’s what I would want if someone was watching my dog

About: I have a Scottish Terrier at home and I've had her for 5 years now. Over the years we've hosted numerous dogs, giving me hands-on experience with various breeds and temperaments. Additionally, I run a pet care brand (Modern Kindred), which has motivated me to study pet biology and behavior for the last 3 years. This combination of personal experience and professional knowledge allows me to provide informed, compassionate care tailored to each pet's unique needs. I work from home running my pet wipes brand, so I'm available throughout the day. I only make trips to the post office once a day, but otherwise I'm home with my dog (who is energetic and loves playing with other dogs). This means I can provide consistent attention and supervision for any pets in my care. I create a safe environment by removing any objects that dogs could chew on and only providing durable, indestructible toys with no loose pieces. I always supervise dogs closely and stay in the same room with them to ensure their safety and wellbeing at all times.

About: I’ve had both cats and dogs as pets growing up my whole life. I walk dogs for families all around my neighborhood as well as dog/catsit. I love surrounding myself with fur babies of all types:)) I’m a college student with no job because I go back to college first week of July for soccer (no time for a full time job). That being said, I’m home all the time to take care of your animals! I live in a neighborhood filled with dogs! Everyone is always out walking their dogs and all the dogs I’ve cared for love interacting with the other dogs. There’s loads of places for them to do their business and walk!

Alexandra is amazing! Our Izzy is weary of strangers, and Alexandra worked with us on a plan to get Izzy comfortable with Alexandra coming over when we're not home. Izzy adores her and loves having a familiar face to play with on our long work days.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Elmsford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Elmsford on Rover is $31.08 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 24,939 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Elmsford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Elmsford stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

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.

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 Elmsford 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

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 Elmsford with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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.
