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.

Tamette and Ahn were wonderful with Daisy when they stopped by to meet her for the first time before we were going to be away. They were gentle and patient with her and she warmed up to them quickly. Tamette let me know how it went in detail when I asked, which I really appreciated. We would definitely use her again, and hope to leave Daisy with Tamette and Ahn at their home when we go away for a week in January.

About: I offer dog walking and pet sitting. I currently own a 90-pound Sheepadoodle and a 50-pound Labradoodle, so I am very comfortable handling large dogs. I raised both of mine from when they were puppies, so I am great with energetic dogs and training routines. I also have experience with elderly dogs, as my previous two dogs were Goldendoodles who both lived to be 16. I generally work Monday through Friday from around 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, so I am fully available for morning and evening care. I am also free on weekends, as well as for overnight sitting in your home. I focus entirely on routine and comfort for your dog when sitting in your home. I make sure to strictly follow your feeding and walking schedules. I also am diligent with the daily photo updates so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and doing great. Additionally, I always do a quick pre-screen chat first to talk about your routine, rules, and wishes for your pet.

About: I’m a huge fan of both cats and dogs and will happily provide the walks, playtime, cuddles, belly rubs, and attention they demand. I love getting to know each pet’s personality—whether they’re a zoomie champion, a professional napper, or a little shy. My work is flexible and can host your pets for long term care. I would be honored to give your fur babies plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I work full-time, but only live two minutes away. I will be able to attend to your pets practically anytime of the day. I currently don't have any other pets staying with me so your babies will have my undivided attention. I live on a large private property with lots of land and space for needed outside time. I live in a small apartment but still plenty of space to comfortable moving.

About: I use to work at a Doggie Hotel. I worked in the kennel area and use to manage the cleaning as well as the food distribution for every dog in the facility. I love taking care of my neighbors pets while they are away for vacation. I'm very hands on when it comes to puppies and training, I've done similar things at my last job as a kennel worker/day care dog counselor. I own 2 bearded dragon and take care of my parents dog from time to time! I make sure to give them special attention everyday. I make sure that each animal gets love and attention every hour of the day! I make sure that they have eaten, and if not I try to encourage, and make sure they are mentally stimulated with some play time! I also like to incorporate exercise when playing!

About: Hi! I’m Kelly, a lifelong animal lover, professional treat-giver, and former dog mom to my sweet girl, Princess, for 13.5 amazing years. From daily walks to medication routines, I’ve handled it all with love and care. Whether your fur baby needs a snuggle buddy, a midday walk, or someone to keep an eye on them while you’re away, I’ve got you covered! I live in a pet-friendly community with plenty of green space and have my own vehicle, so I’m reliable and flexible when it comes to pick-ups, drop-offs, or emergency needs. I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet, and I treat every animal like my own. Let’s connect! I’d love to meet your pup and become their new favorite human! Pet care fits into my routine pretty seamlessly. Honestly, hanging out with animals is one of the best parts of my week! I have a flexible schedule, my own car, and I live in a pet-friendly community with lots of green space, so walks and visits are easy to work into my day. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a walk around the block, or a weekend stay, I make the time because I truly love being around animals. After 13.5 years with my own dog, it just feels natural to keep giving that kind of love and care to other pets. I live in a pet-friendly community with lots of green space, so walks and visits are easy to work into my day. I'm also more than happy to pet sit in your own home if that's what you prefer.

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: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I currently have two cats of my own, including one with a heart condition, so I’m very comfortable administering medications and following detailed care routines. Giving medication twice a day is already part of my daily life, and I understand how important consistency and attention to detail are. I also regularly care for my neighbor’s dog, who requires medication, as well as my sister’s cats, dogs, and rabbits. Through this experience, I’ve become confident handling pets with a wide range of needs, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your pet needs extra patience, playtime, or specialized care, I’m someone who will treat them like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away! I am available anytime before 7:00 am and anytime after 4:00 M-F. I am flexible during the weekends and can be available all day. I have an apartment in walkable Sleepy Hollow that is scattered with parks for you pets to explore. Additionally, I have friendly cats to help exercise and engaged your pets during the day.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have always been very involved in their care, from daily walks and feeding to grooming and play. I’ve also taken an active role in training my dogs, helping them build good habits and feel comfortable and secure in their environment. Being around animals comes very naturally to me, and I genuinely enjoy making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal with the same attention and kindness I would give my own. I work full-time during the day, but I make time in my routine for pet care because it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I’m available on weeknights and weekends, and I love using that time to stay active—whether that’s going on walks, spending time outdoors, or giving pets the attention and care they need! Pet care fits naturally into my schedule, and I’m committed to being reliable, present, and attentive whenever I’m with your pet. I provide care in my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. I do my best to follow their usual routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, whether that means being active and engaging or calm and patient. I also treat your home with the same respect and care as I would my own—keeping things clean, secure, and organized. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while giving you peace of mind while you’re away!

About: I have experience with petsitting very anxious dogs, pets with special needs, and pets who need more attention than most. Just let me know ahead of time if your dog barks at everything so I can be prepared to soothe them. I'm pretty flexible with most pets! I'm available 24/7 in Westchester, NY. I need something to do to keep me busy since I don't have much of a schedule at the moment. Let me know if your pet has any special needs or preferences. Please bring toys or anything else your pet uses daily. I'm pretty flexible and I can sort out the rest of anything.

I’ve only had one experience with Janelle so far but I know/hope there will be more. I reached out very last minute (two days before needing help) and she responded right away, was able to make a FaceTime meet & greet and my puppy loved her. She was lovely to work with and I felt like my little 3 month old guy was in great loving hands.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Elmsford on Rover is $31.08 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 25,202 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.
