About: Through hands-on rescue work, I’ve cared for dogs with every temperament—puppies, seniors, anxious rescues, and large breeds—teaching me how to read body language, build trust, and provide calm, confident care. I’m highly experienced with puppies and basic training, including leash manners, crate training, and foundational commands like sit, stay, and recall, using positive reinforcement and consistency. I believe structure and patience help dogs feel safe and thrive. I live in a dog-friendly apartment community with a secure, fenced-in animal area where pups can safely run, play, and enjoy fresh air. We’re also surrounded by parks and beautiful walking paths, perfect for enrichment, exercise, and relaxed strolls. My love for animals is unmatched, and dogs are not just part of my life—they are my priority. I care for every dog as if they were my own, tailoring attention to their individual needs so they feel safe, happy, and truly at home. I value transparent, open communication and will always keep you updated for total peace of mind. I can’t wait to meet your beautiful fur baby! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, and playtime, so pets receive consistent attention, structure, and plenty of one-on-one care. My rescue experience has taught me the importance of structure, safety, and trust. I maintain a clean, secure environment, supervise pets closely, follow routines, and communicate clearly to ensure pets feel safe and cared for at all times.

About: I’ve had dogs and taken care of dogs for as long as I could remember. My friends always call and recommend me when they’re away! I’m home often and if I run out it’s not for long, so I’d be home with your dog most if not all day. I’m very active and love walking so I’d take your dogs on multiple walks a day… as long as that’s what they like :) I will send lots of photos and updates of your dog through out the day! I’m home often, and I love walking so I can take your dog on long walks! Or i cuddle with your dog on the couch. I treat every dog like they are my own.

“Kali has been dropping in on my 2month old puppy, Panther, for 30 minutes visits while I am at work. In the past week, she has been consistent and dependable. I was quite apprehensive about having someone in my home but our meet and greet went well and Panther was immediately attracted to her. She communicates effectively and offers solutions for dealing with puppy issues that may arise. I will continue to use Kali for as long as she is willing to drop in on Panther.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and other animals for over 18 years all around my town as well as from families and friends. I’ve had the privilege of taking care of many different breeds and ages. Also, I’ve done plenty of play time, training, walking, feeding, bathing, etc. with them all. I take care of animals as if they are my own! My sister and I currently own a small business in my hometown with flexibility throughout the day to care for whatever your pets may need. I have a nice size home and backyard. I live in a nice quiet neighborhood and am close to many parks to visit with your animals. They would get to spend time with my sweet dog who loves to have company over!

About: I’ve had my two cats for about three years now, and we’ve built a routine together around feeding, playing, sleeping, and everything in between. Every day when I walk through the door, they’re the first two to greet me. I make sure they’re always fed, clean, hydrated, well cared for, and most importantly, safe. I work full time during the week, so I’m generally unavailable during the day, but I’m usually free in the evenings after work and have full availability on weekends. I live in a two-bedroom, ground-floor apartment with a private, enclosed patio where my cats can safely explore outdoors without the risk of escaping. We also have an extra bedroom set up so they have their own space and time when they want it.

“Brandon is an exceptional sitter! He got back to me in a timely manner even when i requested his services a bit last minute. My German Shepherd pup loves him and I feel comfortable leaving him in his care. He kept us updated if anything happened and even took some cute photos of our kitty at home. If you’re looking for a trustworthy sitter, Brandon is your guy!”

About: My 3 kids and I run a small business caring for animals mostly dogs. All 3 are in their 20’s. My son, Adam does most of the walks and house sitting, I handle the boarding. My reviews are not only for me but for my boys as well. I come from a long line of animal lovers and grew up with many dogs, cats, birds, hamsters. Animals are my life! They offer unconditional love and rely on us to give them love, affection and to meet all of their basic needs. I own my own home on a private dead end street. When your fur babies are here, they are part of our family and are never left alone. There is always someone at home. My mission is to make sure all pups in my care, feel safe, loved and happy. I recently left my job in the medical field. I’m spending my time now with my adult children and my dogs. Life is too short to not do what you love everyday Safety is a priority in my home and I live on a private street with only two houses so there is absolutely zero traffic here

“Jennalynn was awesome with Pepper. She is very knowledgeable and has a lot of experience with rescue dogs which is hard to find. I have a fearful reactive dog I recently adopted, so I had to give her 100 details about her background. Her communication to come up with an intro plan made things so much easier. I highly recommend Jennalynn for all dog needs!”

About: He’ll there! My name is Jessica— an active, dependable pet caregiver currently working toward my credentials because your animals deserve someone who takes this seriously. I’m available middays, evenings, and weekends, and I happily offer home stays for pets who do best in a cozy, familiar environment. I’m based in the Co-Op city and love prioritizing neighborhood clients — there’s something special about being the trusted sitter on your block. I also serve the Southeast Bronx along the 5 and 6 train corridors, making me accessible to a wide range of families across the area. For home visits and trial walks, due to cancellations I need to charge a flat rate of 20$ . I’m strong and experienced handling larger dogs, and I welcome medically complex care — whether that means administering medication, managing special diets, or keeping a close eye on a senior or post-op pup. My community roots run deep, and that means you’ll always get honest communication, photo updates, and a sitter who truly cares. 🌻 Is important to me that a space is kept clean, and habits are the overtime to maintain a space and animal health. Forgetting to do a litter box, one day happens, but forgetting to do it constantly can lead to your pet killing a fungal infection, and having a lot of pain in the limbs they walk on. I like to take a systems thinking approach, and things like a few times a week and cleaning your space everyday and securing unsafe spaces is super important . I work in retail and the service industry so I would love to transition out of that soon as hour can be short or sparse this time of year and build my photography business. Taking care of pets and having pet models for my portfolio would be great as well as the time to be active and have fun as I focus on building these foundational skills. I’ve already done the hectic schedule of chasing shifts downtown for the last 2 years so if I could have slower days and have clients closer to me that would be great. To me a very successful play session involves observing the pet where they are,and how they interact because I am a guest in their space firstly, and giving them attention and love is my first priority. I don’t care that I may start out at a Lower rate or XYNZ is out of my pay grade. I’m not leaving a fecal mess or putting my headphones on, and turning Netflix and putting my feet up during a session because I can . The TV will always be there but the emotions and potential reactive response of a pet that might start biting plants or getting into stuff they shouldn’t —can lead to a permanent result. I want the pets I care to stay interested or at least rest and feel comfortable in their space and know that some one is there to feed them and respond to their needs or at least be willing to figure out what they need and not dismiss them. I have been trained by another company called Big City Wolf on proper dog handling and plan to get my animal CPR training this March and apply to work at the new ACS center in Coop city .

“I would give Hadley 10 stars! This is the first time we had someone who wasn't a close friend care for our kitties. I was nervous, especially because Twinkle's diet and medication are a little complicated, and she doesn't like everyone, she's picky. But I could see when we met Hadley that they had a calm and loving temperament, and took the best care possible of our babies. Hadley's communication skills both with us and the kitts were great, and allowed us to enjoy our time away without worries. Also, great pictures and comments every day!”

About: There hasn’t been a time in my life when I DIDN’T have a pet. Except for right now, that is. As any dog owner/lover will tell you, your dog is an important member of your immediate family. Losing a pet is comparable to losing a family member. Jake, my pit bull, passed away a little over a year ago. The grief and loss was/is hard to get over, and I’m not ready right now for another dog of my own. But I am and always will be an animal lover, and I will take very good care of YOURS! Due to COVID, I’m currently working part-time. And since I’m able to set my own hours and work schedule in this part-time job, I have the luxury and good fortune right now of a flexible and open schedule that can be adjusted at any time. I’m not currently able to care for pets out of my own home here in Yonkers, but I have a car and I am happy to travel to care for your pet at YOUR home or wherever you need me to be.

About: I just have an intense love for all animals and think they are all angels. If I had more self-control, I'd be vegan. I am open to taking care of any animals but mainly have experience with dogs and cats. I'm still looking for full-time work so currently, I have an open schedule. I would prefer to work Mon-Fri. I am open to discussing weekend availability. I would prefer to take care of the pet in the client's home, because I have pets of my own. My pets are both pretty unique, so it would be more efficient to do it in a space that's familiar to the pet.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for many years family pets, friends’ dogs, and neighbors’ pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and giving medication if needed. As a parent myself, I’m patient, responsible, and always at home to give your pets the attention and security they need while you’re away. I treat every pet like my own and send regular updates with photos so you have peace of mind. Pet care is a natural fit for my daily routine. As a parent, I’m home most of the day and already structured around caring for others. I handle meals, potty breaks/litter scooping, playtime, and any medication on a consistent schedule that matches your pet’s needs. I can easily adjust around school drop-offs, pickups, or family activities while still giving your pets plenty of attention and companionship. Overnight house sitting works especially well because I’m already at home in the evenings and nights. I’m reliable with communication and always make sure pets’ needs come first while fitting everything smoothly into my day. When you book house sitting with me, your pets stay in the comfort of their own home and receive consistent, attentive care. I’m home most of the day, so your pets get plenty of companionship and won’t be left alone for long stretches. You’ll receive daily photo updates and short messages so you know how everyone is doing. I follow your exact routines for feeding, potty breaks/litter scooping, medication (if needed), and playtime. I keep the house tidy, bring in the mail, water plants if requested, and leave everything just as I found it. I’m a parent myself, so I’m patient, calm, and used to managing a household. Your pets will be treated with the same care and affection I give my own family. Feel free to request a Meet & Greet so we can go over everything in person and make sure it’s a perfect fit!

I look forward to looking after your fluffy loved one 🐶🐈‍⬛ I primarily work from home, so pet care fits seamlessly into my everyday schedule. As someone who has had pets throughout my life, I appreciate the importance of checking in on them throughout the day and attending to their needs. I live in a quiet, three-bedroom apartment, which provides ample space for sitting and boarding—my boyfriend, who also has significant experience with cats, lives with me and works from home.

About: I have provided care for everyone. I’ve taken care of babies, children, elders, cats and now dogs. I had my first sitting job for a friend last summer and I am ready to take on the challenge again. I am self employed, working from home daily. I spend most of my time with Violet and Blue, two very high energy and affectionate Maltese. We go for long walks around the greenway and practice new commands regularly. I adhere to the schedule the client has enforced and implement lots of play to support coping with not having their human companion at home.

About: My experience with animals goes beyond just having pets of my own! I’ve raised my cat, Khloe, since she was a newborn, cared for my boyfriend’s senior dog Gizmo (RIP), and even helped care for a family member’s puppy (Romeo) who was sick with a UTI. That meant keeping up with more frequent walks and giving the puppy extra attention throughout the week. I’ve also managed to keep three carnival goldfish (Darwin, Sayuri, and Mohawk) happy and healthy for over two years! From young pets who need supervision to senior pets who may need a gentler hand, I’ve learned every animal has different needs, but deserve the same patience consistency and love. I’m also a photographer and artist, so I LOVE catching those goofy moments that fill every pet owners phone gallery. If your pet becomes my buddy, don’t be surprised if you get an entire complimentary photo shoot! I will also be happy to clean your fur baby afterwards (yuck nyc floors) and provide poop bags, toys, treats, etc if needed! OVERNIGHT PET SITTING HOURS ARE: 7PM-8AM. If you require constant care during extended stays, (I can’t leave your home for any period of time) please let me know. I’m currently in college full time. We can work together to find the best schedule 🐾 Whether it is in my home or yours, my priority is making sure the fur baby is safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow the usual feeding, walking, playtime, and rest routines as closely as possible. In your home, I’ll respect your space, keep your pet areas cleaner than you left them, and make sure they have fresh food and water.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We are so happy and grateful to have found Mariana! She is incredibly responsible, punctual, caring, and genuinely sweet with our dog. What impressed us the most was that, even before we booked her services, she took the time to come to our home, meet us and our little one, and make sure we would all be a good fit. That thoughtful gesture showed us right away how much she truly cares about the dogs she looks after. It gives us such peace of mind knowing our little one is in such loving and trustworthy hands. Thank you, Mariana, for taking such wonderful care of our little one! We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a reliable and caring person 😀

FAQs for Dog Sitting - New Rochelle

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in New Rochelle is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $46 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 October 2026, there are 25,935 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across New Rochelle. 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.

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 New Rochelle 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.

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 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in New Rochelle with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 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.
