“Shannon is a fantastic sitter! She's checked in on our pup multiple times a week since he came home and she is always reliable and easy to get in touch with. Our puppy Rigi was only 9 weeks when we went back to work, so naturally we were nervous, but after the first visit from Shannon we knew we had nothing to worry about! :)”
“Amanda took such great care of our cat Nyusha while we were away for the week. Amanda understands cats very well and Nyusha loved her. I felt safe leaving my cat with her and would love for Amanda to watch Nyusha again. Amanda is attentive and caring and I definitely recommend her.”

I’ve pet sat for family and friends, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and routines. I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits for both cats and dogs. I’m happy to help with feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter boxes, and giving your pet some attention while you’re away.

About: I have been caring for all kinds of fur babies since my childhood and have never stopped into my adulthood! From puppies to senior pups I have experience with animals of all ages and lifestyles. I have done this as a hobby for such a longtime, but now I am wanting to make it my #1 priority and am doing it full- time. This allows me to focus more time and commitment towards my clients and their babies for whatever the need may be. I curate my pet care depending on whatever the parents require. Whatever services are needed/wanted I am happy and willing to provide! I typically come to your pets and meet them where it’s comfortable and familiar for them wether that’s a drop in or an overnight in the comfort of their own home:)
“Sasha is Fantastic! She’s very communicative, is so good with our pup, and we enjoy having her come over weekly! This is my first time with a pet sitter and she made it so easy and we felt comfortable almost immediately. 10/10!”
About: Hello! My name is Jenna. I absolutely love being around dogs and grew up with them my entire life. My first family dog was a yellow Labrador named Lady, and later, a wonderful black Lab mix named Maddie. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I have a lifetime of experience caring for them and plenty of love to give to yours.Because of my active lifestyle, I love spending time outdoors and going on long hikes. I will ensure your dog gets plenty of fresh air, active playtime, and frequent outdoor exercise. I treat every dog with the same kindness and respect I would show a human. In addition to my love for animals, I am a professional schoolteacher who works with young children, which has given me an abundance of patience, care, and reliability. I would be thrilled to treat your dog like a member of the family!
“Skylar was absolutely incredible with our four dogs! She was available at the last minute for a family emergency. In the process, she updated me and shared some photos of some very happy babies. Our dogs warmed up to her very quickly! She was also very understanding when we came home sooner than expected. We will definitely be using her in the future! Thank you, Skylar for loving them as much as we do :)”
About: I’ve shared my home with animals since I was a little kid, including two large Rottweiler dogs, three Yorkies, and even two cats. That means I’m comfortable with every size and personality, from strong, powerful dogs who need confident handling to tiny, spirited dogs who need extra gentleness. I understand dog body language, I’m patient with nervous pets, and I’m happy to follow your routine for feeding, walks, and playing! Pet care fits well into my routine because I am mostly home during the week. I’m usually available for: • morning/evening walks • morning, midday, evening check-ins Your pet won’t be left alone during visits , and I’ll stick to the schedule you already use. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first! I’ll treat your home with respect and lock up behind me, keep doors and gates secured, and always use a leash on walks. Having raised large dogs, I know how to handle strong pullers safely, and having raised small dogs and cats, I know how to keep little ones from slipping out. I’m happy to do a meet-and-greet at your home first. I can send updates during each visit and i'll leave your home as I found it.

Allison was wonderful! She kept me posted and gave me great pictures ans updates. The animals loved her. She took the dogs for nice walks and gave the cats a lot of love. Plus cleaned the litterbox！we would definitely recommend her to anyone and will use her again!
This is the first time we have used a pet sitter, so we were a little nervous. Riley put out minds at ease with her professionalism. Our senior cat was happy and obviously well cared for when we got home. Riley sent pictures with every visit and gave us updates. The house smelled clean and fresh, not at all like it had been unused for two weeks! Little Chin and I thank you Riley!!! 🩷

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in North Salem is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $22 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 8,200 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across North Salem. 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 North Salem. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% 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.
