“Alina was great! Both of my fur babies were super excited to meet her, which shocked me since my girl is usually the one that you have to bribe with treats to be social. My boy has never met a stranger and was happy to have the extra attention. Alina communicated after each visit and took photos of my babies while she was there. She was available during the holiday weekend and kind enough to not jack up her prices. I would recommend her to anyone that needs their furbabies to be properly cared for. I will most certainly request her assistance again if I have to leave town.”
About: I’ve cared for animals since I was a child. I’ll run with, walk, feed, play with, or care for your pet. I’m a mom to my son, one dog, four cats, and a hedgehog. I’m responsible and really love animals. I don’t have a long professional pet-sitting history, but I’ve cared for animals for decades. I’m a very active, busy person, but I have plenty of time for pet care. I can do early mornings Sunday-Thursday, evenings Monday-Thursday, and pretty much any time on Friday or Saturday. I can care for your pets in your home, but have to go home to my own at night. Mostly, I’m available to visit your pet in your home or take them out for walks or exercise.
“I was very happy with my overall experience with Rover. It was easy to set up and choose someone to care for my 2 cats when I was out of town. Nancy was great! She came when she said she would and gave me updates at each visit. When I came home, the house was so calm and peaceful. The cats were safe, fed and happy. I would definitely recommend Nancy and will use her again in the future. Thanks! :) Rose G.”
“We are so grateful for Marta, thank you so much! We were able to go on a family vacation out of the country and know that she was taking excellent care of our shy and nervous senior kitty and following all of our instructions about his special diet and medication! She always made an effort to connect with him and make him feel comfortable which we really appreciated. We will definitely hire her again!”
About: I have been pet sitting since the age of 14. I have looked after animals of all kinds, such as dogs, cats, chickens, reptiles, and amphibians. I am comfortable giving medication (outside of injection) and am willing to work with animals of all ages. As we enter the school year I am unavailable for midday drop ins but am available for house sitting or walks after 4pm. This is not my full time position so I will be unavailable from 8am to 4pm. My availability will open up during holiday breaks so keep an eye out for when my availability opens up. I always schedule a meet-and-greet before any care to get to know you and your pets. It helps me ensure I am providing the best care.
About: I have had dogs since I was young. I have experience ranging from small to large. I just adopted a lab mix and I honestly love walking dogs so much that I would love to walk yours as well. I would not walk the dogs at the same time unless we talk about it prior. I love dogs and walking and would love to help be a part of your pets life! I’m currently working part time and am available weekdays during the day for walks or at home visits! I currently work part time, normally in the mornings. I am available Monday-Wednesday, after 11 am and Thursday, Friday after 3 pm. Dog walking would help fill out my weekly schedule. Going slowly. I know dogs get scared when approached too fast. I would treat all dogs with patience, giving them the time to trust me. I would introduce treats and toys.
About: I’ve always had such a big love for animals and truly enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I’ve taken care of animals since I was 9 years old when I got my own dog. I have experience caring for my neighbors’ and friends’ cats, making sure they’re fed, have fresh water, plenty of playtime, and of course, some treats! I’ve also cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs, including French Bulldogs, a Rottweiler-Lab mix, Goldendoodles, and Dachshunds. I also have a Lhasapoo of my own who is now 14 years old, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your furry family member! I know every animal has their own personality, and I always make it a priority to respect their space and give them time to warm up to me at their own pace. My goal is to make every pet feel just as safe, happy, and loved as they would with their own family! 🩷 I’m currently pursuing my Master’s degree in School Psychology at Marist University! While balancing my classes and school responsibilities, I love making time to care for animals and would be happy to fit drop-in visits into my weekly routine! 🐾❤️ My current availability is: * Mondays: 7 AM – 12 PM * Tuesdays: 5 PM – 9 PM * Wednesdays: 8 AM – 2 PM * Fridays: 9 AM – 6 PM * Saturdays & Sundays: 9 AM – 4 PM I do my best to be flexible and accommodate your pet’s routine whenever possible. I know how important consistency is for animals, and I want to make sure they receive the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away I offer drop-in visits in your home, where your pets can feel safe and comfortable in their own space.😌 During each visit, I make sure they have fresh food and water, playtime, potty breaks or litter box cleaning, and of course, plenty of love and attention! I understand every pet has their own personality, so I’m always patient and respectful of their boundaries. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates so you can feel at ease knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for!!
“Erica took great care of my 3 cats, including one with cancer, when I was away. She went above and beyond by offering to go back and take care of something when I left confusing instructions, which gave me great peace of mind. All looked the way I left it when I returned, too. I highly recommend Erica for your animals’ needs!”

About: Animals are basically part of my DNA. I’ve been walking dogs and pet sitting since I was a child, and I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other animals. I’ve also been riding and caring for horses my entire life, which means I’m very comfortable with responsibility, routines, and understanding animal behavior. I have hands-on experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic dogs who love long walks and playtime to seniors who need a calmer pace and extra TLC. I’m great at reading animal cues, keeping routines consistent, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I truly treat every pet as if they were my own. I work from home, so pets are never left alone and are part of my daily routine. My home sits on 3 acres of private property surrounded by a state park, which means lots of space for play and long walks or hikes. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I care for pets by treating them like part of the family, whether they’re in my home or theirs. I stick closely to each pet’s usual routine—including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest—so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure dogs get plenty of supervised exercise, enrichment, and attention throughout the day. I’m attentive to individual needs, whether that means extra activity for high-energy dogs, gentle care for seniors, or patience and consistency with puppies. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Jared, was on time and stayed and hung out with our pup for the full hour! It was super helpful while we’re at work to know he was with someone who loves dogs and taking time to give them some exercise. Moose seemed so happy and was well taken care of.”
About: I’m a dedicated animal lover with two dogs and a cat of my own who are truly my children—so I will treat your pets with the same love, care, and attention I give mine. I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining their normal routines. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feedings, medications, or plenty of cuddles, I make sure every pet feels at home and well cared for. I follow all instructions closely and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind and ensure your pets feel loved every step of the way. I’d love to meet you and your furry family members! I am very active and love going for walks so if it includes your fur baby that’s a plus! I am here to fit your fur babies needs. I love bonding with ALL animals. I have a horse, a cat and two dogs of my own who I love and care for daily. I love giving treats, baths and lots of play time.
About: Growing up with dogs taught me something early: pets are family. Outside of my full-time remote tech consulting gig, I provide high-touch based pet care for families throughout Westchester and Manhattan. My goal is simple: create a calm, trusted second home where your dog feels genuinely safe and loved. I intentionally keep bookings limited so every dog receives individualized attention, consistency, and companionship. Whether your pup is energetic and playful, senior, recovering from surgery, or simply loves a calm environment, I tailor care around their exact routine and personality. What makes Kristine different: ✓ 100% work-from-home flexibility ✓ Fenced backyard + Hudson River walks ✓ Real-time photo/video updates ✓ Pick-up/drop-off assistance available ✓ Medication administration experience ✓ Senior & post-surgery support ✓ Calm, low-volume household ✓ Overnight house sitting with light home care included For pet parents who home-cook meals, I’m also happy to prepare fresh dog meals in my home using your provided ingredients. For house sitting clients, I believe premium service should feel complete. In addition to caring for your pet, I help maintain peace of mind by bringing in packages/mail, taking out trash, watering plants, and keeping your home tidy. I’m building long-term relationships with both dogs and their owners. Many of my clients become repeat families, and that trust means everything to me. Let’s schedule a meet & greet and see if we’re a great fit for each other. 🤍 My work-from-home schedule provides complete flexibility for boarding, house sitting, walks, feeding, and bathing. I have my own vehicle to help with pick-ups and drop-offs. My home has a fenced backyard, and located close to the Hudson River, offering safe outdoor access and scenic trail walks. For house sitting, I maintain your pet's exact routine in their familiar environment while also helping collect mail/packages, watering plants, and light cleaning to ensure you return to a tidy home.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Highland Falls is $25

I highly recommend working with Crystal! We had three week-long trips in the past two months and Crystal was able to watch our two cats for all of them. She is communicative, flexible, and takes her time during visits so each of our kitties get what they need!
She was so wonderful with our fur babies. Cared for them with so much kindness and love. She was attentive and maintained their schedule while we were away. So grateful to have found her on the site and hope to use her in the future of available. Highly recommend

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Highland Falls is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $3 and $28 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 8,168 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Highland Falls. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Highland Falls. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
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.
