“I cannot recommend Emily enough. She took care of my Maine coon kitten when I was away for ten days. She came twice daily and took the time to write detailed updates about how my kitten was doing. She has attention to detail, and goes above and beyond by doing little vacuuming to keep litter under control and bringing in a package for me. I was so reassured knowing that she was watching my little cat!!”
“Candice was the sweetest pet sitter for our cat! She was patient with him and communicative with us throughout the time we were away. We would definitely rebook her in the future!”
“Kathleen was such a thoughtful and kind caretaker for our three cats. I was nervous to leave them for the first time in our new house, and Kathleen helped us feel at ease. She was communicative before and during her visit, and she spent special time with each kitty before leaving. We really appreciate her understanding and support and would love to work with her again.”
About: I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. I’ve been caring for animals as long as I can remember. I have years of hands on experience caring for dogs, cats, & other animals through both professional pet care and my own family. I’ve worked at a dog daycare & in dog walking, caring for dogs & cats with different personalities, needs, & energy levels. I’ve also cared for family members dogs, cats, & chickens. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including senior pets & those who need medication. Having a shy, senior cat of my own, I understand how important patience, attentiveness, & a little extra TLC can be. I truly treat every pet as a my own, & love getting to know their unique personalities. Whether your pet is energetic & playful or prefers a little extra patience & quiet companionship, I want them to feel happy, safe, & loved while in my care. I have a pretty flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around the pets in my care. I’m available for walks & drop in visits throughout the day. I always make sure every pet gets the time, attention, and affection they deserve. I always do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and make sure they feel happy, comfortable, & cared for!

I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for I’m very flexible and I can work around a lot of times and make a lot of times work. We can work together to find what works best.

About: I'll make sure your pet has the best time possible in your absence. I just love seeing happy animals, earning their sacred trust, and helping them become comfortable and confident❤️ I offer training, as well! And I'll gladly watch any pet, big or small. Both on and off of Rover, walking and training dogs is what I do most for work! So, my schedule is constantly changing to ensure every pet gets proper care. My biggest con is that I may be late because of spending extra time with client's pets, but I try to plan for it wherever possible! If a dog needs 10 more minutes, but my time is already up, I'm not just going to leave. I am very respectful of other people's homes, and always will be. I am not currently offering to pet sit in my home, as my family has allergies.
“Martin was amazing with my two dogs. He spent the time to built their trust and love and took them on long and engaging walks which left them exhausted. I 100% recommend him.”

About: I've had cats and dogs my whole life and know how to make animals feel comfortable and cared for. I offer dog walking and cat boarding from my home in Yorktown Heights. Guest cats stay in their own private room with fresh food, water, and a clean litter box. For dog walking I keep things low stress, consistent, and fun. I work from home regularly so I'm around often and take every pet's routine seriously. I treat every animal like my own. I work from home frequently which means pets in my care are never left alone for long stretches. For dog walking I'm flexible on timing and can work around your schedule for morning, afternoon, or evening walks. For cat boarding, guest cats get visits multiple times a day including morning feeding, a midday check-in, and an evening wind-down with fresh food, clean water, and a scooped litter box. Weekends I'm generally very available and weekdays I can accommodate most requests with a little advance notice. I genuinely enjoy spending time with and meeting new animals so this isn't a job to me, it's a passion. I have a dog and two cats of my own so I know firsthand what animals need to feel safe and comfortable. Guest cats are kept in their own private, dedicated room completely separate from my resident pets, giving them a quiet space to decompress and settle in at their own pace. For dog walking I keep things calm and consistent, always on leash, through the safe residential streets of Yorktown Heights or local parks where my dog frequents himself. I pay close attention to each animal's personality and adjust my approach accordingly. Whether a pet is social and energetic or shy and cautious, I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. My home is peaceful, clean, and genuinely pet friendly.
About: Besides having raised both cats and dogs all my life, I also have several years experience with volunteering at animals shelters. I can provide leash manners, socialization and provide medical care. At the moment, my availability is very flexible. I can provide service at any day and time. I’m local and can travel for clients. In addition, I’m very responsive. I like to make all animals feel at home by providing a relaxed environment. I have a fenced in yard. All animals should be loved and approached with patience.
About: I have taken care of friends and family pets over the course of this year some long-term and some short term. Frequent dog park visits and timely feedings. I can accommodate all types of diets, raw kibble, and specialty foods. I currently work full-time however I have a rotating schedule so I can often pet sit and drop in weekdays if needed and weekends. I am off in the mornings so drop and visits are easy for people who work 9 to 5 and just want their dog to have some extra time out or to just check in on the cats. There is an option of having your pet here in my space all to themselves or with my personal pets. I have different options of sleeping accommodations for your pet cage, cot and cushioned. Though I do not have a fenced in yard, I have a dog park in my complex as well as a dog park 4 minutes away by car. I can accommodate all diets, including raw diet.
About: I adore animals and like to treat everyone as if it’s my own. I have been pet sitting throughout college and post grad for about 5 years now. I am incredibly reliable and will treat your space as if it’s my own. I work a fully remote job. I am incredibly flexible and able to care to all your pets needs. Welcome all jobs short or long. I like to keep your furry friend on there set schedule and routines. Everyone operates differently like to meet with the family and see what is best for your animal while you’re away. Love sending lots of updates and pictures throughout the process.
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and making sure they feel safe and cared for. Over the years, I’ve pet-sat on the side for friends and neighbors—it’s more of a hobby than a job because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m reliable, patient, and happy to help with walks, playtime, feeding, or keeping a routine. I make sure each pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while their owner is away. I work a 9–5 job, but I’m available most mornings, evenings, and weekends to care for pets. I work from home three days a week, which allows for added flexibility to provide walks, playtime, or visits. I provide a safe, calm environment while caring for pets in their own home. I follow their routines, ensure they have food, water, and attention, and monitor their well-being. I keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pets are happy and cared for.
About: I have had dogs, cats, puppies in my life since I was born. I have had the pleasure of training all types of dogs in many different areas. When I was younger my family used to always take trips up to Marthas Vineyard, we always had to leave our dogs at a kennel which we realized later on was not the best thing to do for our dogs. Emotionally/mentally we could tell it had taken a toll on them, so we started leaving them home with Pet Sitters. That was the best decision we had made. I want to be able to provide the same love and care that our pet sitters have provided in the past, but for your pet! Im currently working privately as a Personal Trainer and a Hypnotherapist Practitioner so my schedule is quite flexible. I also offer Reiki for both people and pets (Dogs, Cats, Horses)!!! I don’t typically board pets but would be willing to work with someone if the situation was right. I am also willing and able to crate your pet if thats something you do in your home!

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 Mahopac 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.

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 .
