About: I grew up with German Shepherds but have always loved all kinds of dogs, big or small! I have my own large fur baby, a 2 year old bernedoodle, so I am used to high energy. Fully comfortable looking after all ages, puppies to seniors. I work from home and have plenty of time to play with and walk your pups! I can be available Monday, Tuesday, Friday and weekends. Whatever your pup prefers, I am comfortable with handling. Whether that be hanging out inside, walks around the neighborhood, going in their crate, or running around outside. I will make sure to stick to their routine!

“David is a true carry whisperer! My cats are extremely skittish around strangers but seem to love David! Communication has always been quick and easy and he provides lots of pictures and feedback so I can check on my boys while I'm away.”
About: Hello! I'm Devin, a passionate dog lover with over 20 years of experience caring for animals. Rest assured your furry friend will receive top-notch attention and care 💗 I work from home full time and have a flexible schedule so I can adapt easily to your schedule. I am available for daily walks, dog sitting/daily care as well as over nights. I can easily walk a dog of any size on a leash due to my experience with larger dogs and leash training. If the dog has a crate, I'm happy to use or take it or I am fully ok with sleeping with the dog, whatever is comfortable for them! I am extremely attentive to your dogs needs and emotions.
About: As a registered nurse, safety, empathy, and attentive care are second nature to me. When caring for furry family members, my priority is making sure everyone feels safe, comfortable, and well-loved. As a dog and cat owner, I know how much peace of mind matters when you’re away from your pets. When your loved one is in my care, you can rest easy knowing they are in responsible, highly experienced hands! I work full time during the day but I am available Monday through Friday anytime after 2:30 or anytime on Saturdays and Sundays. Let me know what your needs are! I have a friendly dog in my home who loves to play with other pups. My yard is not fenced in big enough for your pup to run around and play.
About: I have mostly had experience with cats since my family has had them almost my whole life. However I have been around dogs a lot! I have walked them many times and cleaned up after them as well. I would love to gain more experience with caring for dogs and am very affectionate with all animals, especially the cuddly ones :) I am currently working part-time, so I have a lot of opportunities to check up on your pets! I am open to checking on them anytime, but would prefer midday and evening checkups to very early or late ones. I am very gentle with all animals but can be assertive if necessary. I will follow all of your requirements as best as I can to make sure you and your pet are happy!
About: Due to my current employment situation, I have lots of schedule flexibility to suit the needs of your animals. I have been caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes since I was young and have done it on a more regular basis over the past 8 years. I have grown up always having dogs and cats so I am extremely familiar with caring for animals. Even the most skeptical dogs quickly trust me for my loving nature. I am always prepared to pay full attention to any animals in my care and to respond to any challenging situations that may come up. I truly love animals and am very excited at the opportunity to help others with the care and support of their furry friends! Your pet’s day will look exactly like it does when you’re with them! I pride myself on helping dogs to keep their routines. I am happy to offer whatever enrichment activities we discuss for your pet such as car rides, dog parks, play dates etc but also understand these are not for every dog so will never do anything we didn’t explicitly clear. I am very adamant about understanding the ways you keep your pet safe at home. I am extremely cautious when coming and going. I keep an eye on all pets in yards, even when they don’t typically require this. In 15 years of dogsitting, I have only had one dog slip away from me and handled it quickly and safely.
About: I have had pets my whole life and currently have a 14-year-old Havanese named Penny who I adore. I am very reliable, on time and caring. I work full time Mon-Thurs and am available Friday, Saturday and Sunday for dog walking, over night care or boarding.. also can run pet related errands. I can care for your pet either in my home or yours. I am very flexible and reliable. My home is on an acre of land.

Thank you, Olivia, for being so attentive to Charley today and alerting me to his renewed itchiness and putting his cone on him to save me from coming home to a raw itchy spot. That is next level dog sitting care from my perspective! We really appreciate you and everything you do. So glad we found you on Rover and not someone else. We would recommend you to anyone who asks!!!
Caitlin took wonderful care of my cats while I was away. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly attentive to my pets’ needs. I appreciated the regular updates and photos—it gave me real peace of mind. My pets seemed happy and well cared for when I returned. She even brought my trash cans back from the curb and brought in my mail. I would absolutely book with Caitlin again and highly recommend her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Kingston is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $36 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 4,087 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Kingston. 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 Kingston. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% 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.
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.
