“This was our first time using Catie, and we couldn’t have been more pleased! She was very kind and accommodating as our plans were rather fluid…and throughout her stay in our home, she was very communicative; sending pictures and updates, with most showing just how happy and comfortable our girl Zoe was with her new friend! Our dog and our home were both in great shape upon our return. We will absolutely use Catie again, for upcoming vacations or spot visits as needed.”
“Katherine was professional, communicative, so thorough, detailed and caring when watching our pups during a family weekend out of town trip we went on. She watched 2 of our pups, gave us very timely updates, followed all of our instructions to the t, has such a kind warm personality. We highly recommend and definitely will be hiring Katherine again!”
“would 100% rebook with Calista! My babies had a great time with her and I was sent daily pictures and updates. She followed all my instructions well and I felt comfortable with her being in my apartment while I was away.”
About: Hi! My name is Jenn and I rescued Jasper 3 years ago. We love taking walks at the Kensico Dam, going to the beach and the dog park. I am a reliable dog walker and animal lover with experience caring for happy pups. I treat every dog like my own family. You get safe walks, fun playtime, and great photo updates every single time.

“Maggie is amazing! She was wonderful with my dog who was experiencing some behavioral issues. She also kept me updated throughout her stay and left the house very clean! I’ll definitely use her again!”
“First time booking Bri and have already booked her again. She’s so kind with my dog Syd and was very attentive to her needs. And Syd loved her! When Bri was leaving, my dog was ready to leave with her!”
“Kelsey was wonderful with our dogs while we escaped for a weekend away. She kept us appropriately up to date and ensured they got exercise and love. We came home to a clean house and happy, content dogs.”
“Belkys was amazing! Our first time leaving our elderly dog with a sitter for so long, so we were nervous at first. So glad we chose Belkys- she did such a great job keeping us updating and making sure our pup was well taken care of. Would definitely book again”
About: I have had my own pets since I can remember ranging from cats, dogs, iguanas, hamsters, fish, salamanders, hermit crabs, and even chicks. Growing up, I spent my summers on my grandfather's farm raising cows, horses, pigs, cats, dogs, chickens and a rooster. I don't have and human kids but I have raised many fur babies. I am the go-to person for family and friends, especially for pets with very specific care instructions. I am in NYC; I drive and have a pretty flexible schedule at this time. My career outside of pets includes Human Resources Management and Operation Director at different schools. I am currently working for myself as a treat maker so I am very flexible with time. I also have a clean license and reliable transportation. I am currently in NYC but can travel to Westchester County and northern NJ as well. I love when a client gives me detailed instructions and will follow them to a tee. I am a very organized person with a high attention to detail who often goes above and beyond in everything I do. Because I have worked with children and at schools, I have been fingerprinted by NYS/NYC, Dept of Health and the NYC Dept of Ed.
About: I’ve had many pets as a young girl and family friends who knew we loved pets would always invite us over to pet watch them. I’m currently working a full time job but available after work and Sundays. I’m looking to spend more time with furry friends and just spend my extra time with them. I love bringing dogs outside into the yard and allowing them to run around with me. I also like pets who like to be a cuddle bug too.
About: I provide a home away from home, pet sitting service. I have experience with various animals for over 25 years, which includes dogs, cats, and birds. Dog births, as well as puppy care, Your pets happiness and safety, are my top priorities. I’m currently working a part time schedule. I have plenty of time to provide tender loving care when you’re not there. I treat them as my own, and that comes from a genuine place. I don’t own any pets at this time, and I do not have any small children in the house. All my attention will be on the pet that’s in my care whether care is taking place at my home or clients home.

Caring for pets has always been a large part of my life, and I would love to help any pet owner I can!
“Yosef was a fantastic catsitter! He stayed at our house for 3 weeks with our 3 cats, sent frequent updates, provided them with a ton of attention and care, watered our plants, brought in our mail, saved a package from some intense rain, and overall took great care of our place.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Greenburgh
Gabriella was amazing when she watched our dog! We were in town visiting and got caught in a last-minute situation where we needed a dog sitter day-of. Gabriella was quick to respond, on time, and took great care of our pittie! We couldn’t have been more thankful to find such a great sitter on such short notice!
Grace did a wonderful job housesitting with our beagle, Henry, and our two cats. She's responsive, reliable, and punctual. Grace took Henry on nice walks and adventures, and he even got to meet her dog as well. As a bonus, Grace is going to school to become a veterinarian, and you can really tell how much she loves animals. Henry has been whimpering since she left, because he misses her. Additionally, my home was well taken care of; everything how I left it, and seemingly Henry didn't have a single accident in the house, which sometimes happens when I'm not around. If you want a sitter you know you can trust, you'll be in good hands with Grace.

The average cost of House Sitting in Greenburgh is $85 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $85 and $85 per night.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Greenburgh walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Greenburgh maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Greenburgh 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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
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.

- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
