“Paula was reliable, communicative, and willing to take on administering oral medication for both of my cats, which I really appreciated since that can be hard to find. There was a bit of a learning curve at the start with the medication process, but she adapted quickly and was receptive to guidance. I would book Paula again for future visits. She did a great job and I’m grateful for her services.”

About: I've taken care of many different dogs, I am comfortable with all breeds and ages. Ive had experience with every energetic puppies, as well as low energy older dogs, small dogs that are all over the place and loud ones. I've lived in a household with pets basically my while life, aside from dogs I have experience with cats, lizards, small animals (specifically rats and hamsters), and parrots. I am very passionate with them all, love spending time with them. My house and neighborhood is great and safe for walking pets, not many cars come through and there are not that many dogs around, so accidents would not happen. And my house is large with a lot of large empty spaces so the dog wouldnt have a chance to be destructive. Most of the time I would be available, I spend most of my time at home, and I do college online. Occasionally I might leave for a day, and in October I'm going on a trip 5-17. My house is very pet friendly, I currently have rats but they have their own room to which I usually keep the door closed. A large part of the house has a lot of empty spaces and the main living room currently doesn't have much furniture, but still a lot of space to run around. It does have stairs. Our neighborhood is a great place to walk around, not that many cars or people walk around, so there would be no accidents. Unfortunately my back/front yard is not fenced, so the dog would need to stay on a leash. I will also listen and follow all the instructions provided by you in your home, I respect other people's spaces and privacy.

“Ana is easily the best cat sitter I've ever hired (and I say that, never having had a bad experience with a pet sitter). She watched our 2 nervous cats and went above and beyond to make sure they were well taken care of. She even did an extra check-in when one of our cats wasn't eating and cleaned up their vomit. Thank you very much, Ana, and we will definitely hire you again.”

About: With 6 years of experience caring for animals of all shapes and sizes, I understand that every pet has unique needs. I've worked with my own rescue dog to improve her socialization and behavior through patience and consistent training. I'm comfortable with both large and small breeds, as well as reptiles, fish, and other companions. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care while keeping your pets happy, safe, and comfortable! Currently going to school full time so my entire day is free and scheduled around my classes. I like to spend a lot of my free time with the companions. It is the daily routine and necessary as a caretaker. I wake up and feed and potty breaks. Mid day before I go to the gym, go for a walk and playtime. Repeat when I return from the gym. And then at night time feed again and last bathroom break. Make sure they are always fed, watered, and have been exercised so that they are occupied and able to relax in comfort, peace, and security

About: With four years of pet sitting experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, giving each one personalized attention, love, and reliable care. As a college student with a flexible part-time schedule, I have plenty of time to care for and play with dogs, giving them attention, walks, and love. In my home, I create a safe, comfortable space with plenty of toys, walks, and cuddles. In my clients’ homes, I follow their routines carefully, keeping pets relaxed, happy, and cared for just like they’re my own.

“Taresse was amazing! She was on time, flexible, very attentive to our dog and cat (and gecko) and very responsive. Taresse was very sweet with both our furry pets. She played ball with Loki and even got our cat to come out and get pets/attention. She also was very gracious when there were a few scheduling hiccups that we made on our side. I would highly recommend her!”

About: I absolutely love dogs and honestly think they are better than humans. I love discovering the unique personality that each dog has. I have owned dogs all my life and have taken care of countless friend's, family's, and neighbor's dogs. I have house sat many times, had dogs stay at my home for extended stays, and become the favorite person to most of my family and friend's dogs whenever I’m around them. I am home most of the time throughout the day and have the freedom to meet almost any need your dog will require. I have a 5 y.o. female golden retriever with a lot of love and energy and zero aggression. I can't think of a better way to occupy all of my free time than to spend my days entertaining your dog! I have all the time in the world to ensure that the services and quality of care that your dog deserves are met! I am available 24-7 to take care of dogs! The only commitment I have during the week is taking my kids to and from school and to their activities. Your Dog can ride shotgun! I will play with them as much as they need! I will feed your dog, go for as many walks as you need me to, take them out to go potty, and give them love and affection. I do have a crate if you would like me to crate your dog. However, I will be home the entire time and there really shouldn't ever be a need. I do have children so I do require that your dog is very good with kids. My kids are pretty calm and very nice to all animals. They love dogs almost as much as me. My Golden Retriever is high energy and very playful as well. So as long as your dog is ok with playing with other dogs then a great time will be had. I will accept any breed of dog into my home and care but I will not accept your dog if it is aggressive towards other dogs or children. I don’t care how wild and playful they are because that’s one thing I love about dogs! But if they tend to snarl and snip and assert dominance through aggression then I’m not your guy. I just want a safe environment for our pups to play.

About: As a dog mom to Freia and Howdy, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone new. Caring for my own two dogs has taught me to pay attention to each dog’s personality, respect their boundaries, and make room for both playtime and quiet time. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, favorite activities, and little quirks so I can help them feel comfortable while you’re away. You can expect thoughtful care, plenty of affection, and photo updates—because I know I’d want those, too! Pet care is already part of my daily routine with my two dogs, Freia and Howdy, from meals and potty breaks to walks, playtime, and cuddles. I plan bookings around my availability so I can give each pet the time and attention they need. Let me know your pet’s usual schedule, and we can discuss how to keep their routine consistent during their time with me. I take time to learn your pet’s routine, temperament, dietary needs, and any special care instructions. In my home, introductions to my two dogs, Freia and Howdy, will be gradual and supervised, with separate spaces for meals and rest. In your home, I’ll follow your care instructions, respect your space, and check that doors and gates are secure before leaving. On walks, I’ll use a leash and avoid unfamiliar dogs or situations that could make your pet uncomfortable. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages and make sure I have your emergency contact and vet information.

About: Hi there! i grew up with a dog in my house for the past 25 years. I moved out and unfortunately had to leave my family pup with mom. He’s my everything and I treat all dogs like my own dog! I have two dogs of my own. One is special needs so I have experience administering medicine and helping with accommodations as needed. Now that ive been working full-time from home since COVID hit, i go a little stir crazy in my house, so I thought I should take up dog walking and babysitting to fill my days. I am a trustworthy person who will give your dog the same love you give them while you’re out working, running errands or traveling! Please feel free to message me if you have any other questions or want to get to know me more :) I am looking forward to meeting your pups! I work from home and have plenty of time to give your pup love and plenty of walks! I work from home so I really have all the time to dedicate to your pup. I can take your pups to a dog park or long walks. I can play tug of war with your pup or fetch. I can even work on teaching them new tricks!

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. Dogs of all shapes and sizes. I love taking care of dogs. Playing, walking, and feeding them. They really are man’s best friend. I work full time, but telework often. I work 10 minutes from home and stop by for lunch daily. The weekends I’m home all the time. Would give full attention to all dogs. My house is the dogs house. As long as they are house trained, they have full use of the house. Nice big yard to run around. Plenty of trails to go for a walk and stretch their legs.

About: I’m a caring and responsible dog lover who enjoys making pups feel safe, comfortable and loved. I have experience caring for my neighbor and brother’s dogs while they’re away, including feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention! Due to the offseason of baseball, I have a flexible schedule and can work from home as needed. This allows me to be available throughout the day for necessary pet care. I am available weekends. I am happy to work around your pet’s routine and needs. My schedule also makes it easier to accommodate different drop-off, pick ups, and care times. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, relaxed, and at home. I provide a clean, comfortable, and welcoming environment while giving each pet plenty of attention, care, and supervision. As a owner of 4 cats and 1 dog, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry friend, and I’ll treat your pet with the same care and respect that I give my own!

About: I’ve had dogs since I was young. I grew up on a farm with lots of animals and have trained many puppies and older dogs alike. All my dogs have been rescues so I’m very familiar with dogs that have come from bad situations and dogs that are misunderstood because of their breeds. I’ve always had dogs of different sizes, breeds and temperaments. I’m always the first person my friends and family go to when they need some extra help with t dogs or just need someone to watch them while on vacation. I live on 10 acres which is perfect for those dogs that love off leash time but don’t get a lot, I love exploring new areas and have assisted in training dogs while in the military. I'm a stay at home wife who takes care of all our animals! I adore dogs and take mine on several walks a day around the farm, we have a creek that the dogs can swim in as well in the nicer weather. Pets are my passion and I love hosting others in my home and going out to other places to walk pets! I live on twelve acres and can offer a safe environment for dogs to safely play in, I have extra long leads so if your pup isn’t quite off leash trained they can still have an amazing experience with the long leads and all the land. I always follow whatever instructions are left for me as I know how important routines can be for a pet!

About: Friendly and trustworthy home. I’ve had pets since I was a kid and taken care of them since age 12, as well as family and friends pets. I am currently working full time from home with a slower work load, so I have plenty of time to spend working and playing with the pets. I do have about two acres of land which is unfenced. I live in a large quiet neighborhood which is great for long walks. Unless house trained, the dogs can be crated.

Ryan is amazing. Conscientious, attentive, caring, highly communicative. Ryan spent all summer coming to our house 1 sometimes 2x a day to let our 8 week old puppy out. With ever changing rules about puppy freedom activities with our VERY energetic older golden, she always asked what she could and couldn't let them do. I would hire Ryam 100x over she is amazing. 100/10. No notes.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Kingston

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Kingston is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $20 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 16,305 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:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
