“Lori updated me every day and provided photos of each visit. My cat is anxious and Lori was patient with her and made sure to feed her a treat on visits to make sure Mittens was coming out of her hiding spot. Thanks Lori!”
“Victoria took care of my cat, Big Ace. She was extremely communicative with lots of photos and updates. My guy seemed very happy with his care. Victoria was very thorough in cleaning too since he can be quite messy:) I highly recommend her to watch your pet!”
“Katheryn was amazing! She took care of all of our cats and gave them insulin. She was attentive and played with our cats and our cats really enjoyed her. She is now #1 on our VERY short list of people we trust.”
About: I've had animals since I was born: dogs, cats, a bird, a snake, rabbit, hamsters, fish and some other reptiles. While I was born and raised in LA, I just spent the last 3 years living on a ranch in rural Florida with a horse, chickens, emus, dogs and cats. So I'm a big animal lover! I have a cattle dog of my own (very hyperactive) that I recently adopted. She was a stray and has some reactive tendencies. I am very comfortable around dogs with high energy (puppies are great - mine is 9 months old) or dogs with trauma. Dogs are so sensitive to human energy and so I make sure to be supportive and make them feel comfortable around me. I'll make sure to give your pup tons of TLC and ensure they stay properly hydrated and fed. For house sits, I'm happy to water plants, collect mail, and ensure the house stays clean. I'm currently freely available and happy to accommodate your schedule. I will clearly communicate when I will arrive (I hate lateness) and will give you an update of our walk with photos and text! I'm happy to do other things as needed, such as feeding them or administering medication. I don't feel comfortable doing injections though! If your dog is high energy, reactive or aggressive, I would be happy to accommodate his or her tendencies! I love playing with animals and studying them psychologically to create the most comfortable environment for their needs. Please let me know if your pet requires any particular medication, potty break schedules, oral medication or requires feeding in a particular way. I would be happy to accommodate.
“Kathryn is a dream!m pet sitter! She has been so lovely to us and our cats from the beginning. She is communicative, detail oriented, and most importantly so caring and thoughtful towards our kitties. She sent us lots of updates with pictures and gave us peace of mind throughout our trip. We will 100% be using her again and would highly recommend to others.”
“Ruth has been one of the few people to be able to crack the code to Logan. She has been so patient with him, and allows him to dictate the terms of the relationship. Her patience and gentleness, balanced with the ability to be firm with him when he needs to get his medicine done is exactly what we need. Having Ruth, someone we can trust, has allowed us to get back to some normalcy. We thank our lucky stars every day that Ruth has come into our lives.”

About: Hello! I’ve been in the pet care industry for 3 years professionally, and almost my whole life personally through friends and family. I’m an animal lover, and I’m ready to meet some new friends! I used to service dogs in East Midtown and have experience with many breeds and temperaments. I also own cats and have worked professionally as a cat sitter in Chelsea/Downtown. I recently moved to the area and can offer walks, sittings, and boarding. We can set up a free meet and greet to see how we can work together to help your companion thrive. I work 10am through 6pm Monday-Friday for walks, extra charge for anything outside of that time frame and weekends/holidays. Inquire about sittings/boardings. Safety is always my priority when it comes to any sort of service. I follow any given instructions and communicate with the parents if I have any questions/concerns. I’m also CPR certified.
“Elisa did a great job. She was very respectful of our home and our pets. It is very evident that she cares about animals. We will absolutely use her anytime we are in need of a pet sitter. Thank you.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I grew up with a family dog and have experience with daily responsibilities such as feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. I currently care for my cat as well as two lizards and two turtles, so I’m comfortable managing different types of pets and their unique needs. I also helped care for my aunt’s Chihuahua for several months, walking and feeding him twice a day and making sure he was happy and comfortable. Being around animals has always been a big part of my life, and I treat every pet with the same attention and care I give my own. My schedule is currently open on Fridays and Saturdays. I am generally available starting around 11 AM and prefer midday visits, but I’m happy to stay flexible and can keep my afternoons open later if needed to accommodate your pet’s schedule. For safety and comfort, I currently provide care in clients’ homes rather than boarding pets in my own home. I believe pets feel most relaxed in their familiar environment, so I focus on maintaining their usual routine with feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely and prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“This was our first time having Jorge take care of our two cats. Jorge was wonderful communicating before we left and giving us updates when we were away. When we returned home the cats were both happy and everything was clean and calm. We’d definitely ask Jorge back again!”
“Caleb is all around amazing! Very reliable, responsible, thoughtful and was extremely kind to our pets. It really made our life much easier while we were away to have Caleb caring for our animals. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’m Lupe! I am an EMT who loves animals. I am constantly around animals. I have a tuxedo cat named Luna. Shes the cutest and most wild cat ever. I am comfortable around all animals and I am willing to adapt to the needs of your pet! When I come to take care or walk your pet, I will also dedicate to showing them some love. I’m currently working part-time, so I will have much time to spend time with your pets. I have time during the end of week and weekend! I have a medium sized yard, that could be excellent for running and playing catch! I also love to walk around the neighborhood and explore new places!
“Michelle took care of my kitties as if they were her own! She went above and beyond their needs and even helped with some household tasks (taking out trash when it got stinky/bringing in packages). I can’t recommend Michelle enough, my kitties were well cared for and very happy when we got home. 100/10 will be rebooking in the future!”
About: I have taken care of Senior dogs, high energy dogs, oral medicine administration, training experience and have done Puppy care. Practice leash walking if I see it's needed. I'm currently volunteering part time at the Animal Shelter and walk dogs part time. My schedule is pretty flexible and can help out whenever needed. I provide a warm, loving, calm and peaceful environment in my home. There are no pets living in my home which is helpful for pets whenever they come in my home. Creates a comfortable and stress-free atmosphere for them.
“Ana did a great job taking care of our kitties, even though they are super shy and hid most of the time. She went above and beyond looking for them and making sure they were safe! Absolutely will ask for her help again in the future.”
“Valentina was such an incredible sitter who not only shared constant photos and videos but you could tell the cat was being cared and loved in her temporary home! Definitely one of the best out there!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - New Rochelle
Lori really helped us out at the very last minute while we were already away on vacation and our other sitter stopped showing up without any notice. She took great care of our 2 cats and was able to give them both their medications with no problems. We are so grateful for her help!
All of my cats love Michelle! Not only does she feed them and empty their litter boxes… she plays with them, brushes them, gives them treats, sends updates and great pictures, and keeps everything neat and clean… She also spends quiet time with my senior cat who just loves her company… Michelle always goes above and beyond…
We couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter than Kathryn! Lucy and Pixie adored her right from the start. She’s thoughtful, communicative, and pays attention to every little detail. Receiving frequent photo updates gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely be using her services again and recommend her 100%!
I appreciate that Lucas was available on short notice to care for my cats for a couple of days… and they were all happy to have a visitor for these days… Lucas provided timely communication, and made sure the cats were all comfortable with his presence (since this was their 1st time meeting one another)…
This was our first time using Rover, and Ana made it an excellent experience! She took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away for a week, making sure they were well-fed, comfortable, and happy. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats and would absolutely book with Ana again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!
Susan is wonderful! She was so kind and patient with our sweet but anxious 14-year-old cat that we felt comfortable going away. Susan was such a pleasure to deal with, and she was very responsive and dependable. She kept us in the loop after each drop-in, giving us all the details about her visit. We can’t thank Susan enough and would definitely ask her to cat sit again without any hesitation!
Julia was a great cat sitter for my cat, Nutmeg! I was away 11 days and Julia sent me photos and a daily update on Nutmeg’s visits. I arrived home with a very calm, relaxed & happy cat (never left her that long before)! I highly recommend Julia and Will book her again if I need to!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in New Rochelle on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 12,400 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across New Rochelle. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in New Rochelle. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
