“Ellie did a fantastic job caring for our dog while we were out for the evening. She sent updates on how he was doing throughout the night to keep our minds at ease, and she was extremely understanding and patient when he had an accident before we left. We highly recommend Ellie to anyone looking for a pet sitter in the area!”

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 10 when I got my dog. I joined Rover 3 years ago and have experience walking, feeding, playing with, and caring for various types of dogs. I care for every dog as if they're my own! I just got home from college and am looking to make some money as I take a remote class this summer. That being said, my schedule is pretty open and flexible! I am very respectful of other's spaces and make sure to follow instructions carefully. I pay attention to detail and am a high energy individual. I truly love dogs so much and am happy to help take care of them when owners' lives get busy.

“CeeCee stayed with my two large dogs over Thanksgiving and was wonderful! She was very accommodating with a last minute booking. The dogs loved her, and she left everything tidier than when she got there. This was the first time my dogs had a sitter, and I felt better knowing they were in good hands.”

“I don’t think we could have possibly found a better sitter than Melissa. Our pup can be extremely shy, but Melissa worked with her through her stay and was eventually able to win her over. She was very communicative the entire time we were gone and gave us great piece of mind. Melissa definitely goes above and beyond, and we’re very grateful to have found her.”

“Dawn and her son Adam were professional and fabulous from our very first communication with them about house- and dog-sitting for us. Adam and Finn took to each other immediately, we felt entirely comfortable leaving Finn in Adam’s capable hands, and it was obvious to us upon our return that Adam had taken immaculate care of both Finn and our home for the week we were away. We look forward to having Adam come back to stay with Finn soon. Thank you both so much!”

“Tatiana was great! She took the time to meet before the day she was going nj to Dogsit. She sent lots of updates and photos and was a joy to communicate with. Thank you Tatiana!”

“Julia is amazing - not only were our dogs happy and healthy, but she left our house better than when she found it! We will definitely be working with her again.”

Allegra L.

“Pete went above and beyond! Incredible job as far as attention to detail and instructions. Very nice guy who kept us completely in the loop the entire time we were gone. Pete is easily the best dogsitter we’ve ever had and our dogs can’t wait to have him back. Whatever is above a perfect rating is what we’d rate him.”

Todd S.

“Hillary was absolutely amazing with our 17-year-old senior dog. Caring for an extremely elderly dog is not easy. It takes patience, experience, and compassion. Hillary went above and beyond to make sure my dog was comfortable, safe, and well cared for. We had total peace of mind knowing that our dog was in such loving and capable hands. I can’t recommend her enough.”

Lisa M.

“Another great experience with Amerasia, who kept us informed with regular updates of Rigby and was able to extend her time last minute after our travel plans had to change unexpectedly.”

Maya A.

“Erick always takes great care of our girl. I feel very comfortable leaving her in his care.”

About: Hello! Besides having four cats and two large dogs growing up, and being the primary pet sitter for several friends and colleagues over the past ten years, I have been the primary caregiver/parent to two dogs. One, Greta, I raised from puppyhood; the other, Honey, I adopted at 12 and cared for in the final years of her life. Both of these dogs experienced medical complications: Greta was adopted with heartworm, which was cured after a strict regimen, and Honey experienced kidney failure in her old age, for which I gave her daily IVs for nearly a year. Both dogs came to me with behavioral problems, including dog aggression and separation anxiety. I was able to care for both dogs and keep them safe, and am experienced with pets with medical needs. I am experienced as a pet owner and caregiver, and will follow your instructions carefully and check in often. I work from home and would love to do so with your beloved pet by my side, where I can give them lots of pets, walks, and cuddles. I hope I get to meet your pet soon! I work from home 4/5 days a week, though I can usually work from home an entire week if needed. I will check in with your pet’s schedule, and let you know if I am able to meet their needs. As a general rule, I never leave a pet alone for more than 6 hours, but I am flexible according to your pet’s specific needs. I always leave a home I am visiting clean, and am happy to do what I can to make sure you are comfortable with me in your home. I am a lifelong New Yorker and can navigate trains and buses to your home easily. I may have access to a car shortly, if you live somewhere inaccessible by train. In my home, I keep food unreachable to pets wherever possible and have pet beds available for their use. I do not have any pets in my home at the moment. I live right next to one of the largest parks in New York City, and am happy to take your pet for walks, or even to the dog park nearby if they are comfortable with other dogs.

About: 🐾 Lifelong Caregiver | Dog, Cat, & Exotic Expert | Detail-Oriented 🌿 About Me: Animals have always been my world. From growing up with dogs to becoming a dedicated cat parent of 6 years, I provide calm, reliable care for every personality. I’m a "routine specialist" who manages 50+ plants, so I’m wired to follow your feeding and medical instructions to the letter. Experience & Services: • Dogs: Lifelong walker experienced in everything from neighborhood strolls to vigorous hikes. • Cats: Expert in kitten care, shy cats, and multi-cat households. • Exotics: Comfortable with rabbits, fish, and even goats! • The Extras: I pride myself on punctuality, high-quality photos, and detailed report cards. Based in Tarrytown. Whether it’s a midday walk, a cat drop-in, or an overnight stay, your pets (and plants!) are in expert hands. As a Product Designer working from a home office, my schedule is incredibly flexible. Because I’m not tied to a traditional 9-to-5 commute, I can easily structure my day around your pet's specific needs rather than squeezing them into a lunch break. My typical routine includes: • Morning & Mid-Day: I use my flexible 'deep work' hours to take breaks for neighborhood walks or drop-in visits. This allows me to be available during the high-demand midday window when most owners are at work. • Weekly Consistency: Since I work from home in Tarrytown full-time, I am a reliable option for recurring weekly schedules. I don’t have to worry about office meetings or travel suddenly changing my availability. • The Designer’s Eye: My profession requires high attention to detail, a skill I bring to pet care by closely following routine instructions, monitoring health/behavior changes, and sending you well-composed photo updates! Whether it's a quick 20-minute check-in or a long walk, my 'home-base' setup ensures I’m always nearby and ready to help. With 8+ years of dog walking experience and 6+ years of being a dedicated cat parent to our cats Luna and Bubba, I’ve built my life around understanding animal behavior. My approach is rooted in the belief that a calm environment and a consistent routine are the keys to a happy pet. Safety First, Always: Safety is my non-negotiable priority. For dogs, this means double-checking harness fits, practicing 'active walking' (staying aware of surroundings/distractions), and ensuring paws are protected from Tarrytown’s winter salt. For cats, I am hyper-vigilant about 'door dashing' and ensuring all windows and entry points are secure before and after I leave. Building Trust Through Patience: I understand that trust isn't given; it’s earned. • For Dogs: I use positive reinforcement and clear communication to build a bond. • For Cats: I specialize in 'low-stress' handling. I let timid cats come to me at their own pace, utilizing my experience with shy rescues to ensure they never feel cornered or overwhelmed. A Controlled & Healthy Environment: Whether I am in your home or mine, I maintain a 'pet-proof' space. • In Your Home: I respect your space and keep it exactly as you left it. Being a parent to 50+ plants, I am also uniquely qualified to ensure your pets stay away from any non-pet-safe greenery. • Health Monitoring: My experience with medications (like Atopica) means I’m always looking for subtle shifts in behavior, appetite, or bathroom habits that might indicate a health change. I am deeply passionate about animals, and I treat every client’s pet with the same meticulous care, love, and routine-focused attention that I give my own.

About: I am a 23 year-old dogsitter and dogwalker that has been working with dogs for a third of my life (8 years). I was always surrounded by dogs growing up and would love to keep it that way :) I walk Figo every day - Labradoodle pictured in my photos :) And dogsit Jesse - Boston Terrier occasionally on weekends. Dogsitting and catsitting is extremely mixed into my schedule and I am always looking for more opportunities! When dogsitting, I am always hanging out with the dog. I walk them a little extra sometimes. And will play with them as much as their heart desires :)

About: I have had a dog for the past 14 years and have been responsibility for all aspects of my pets care from walks to baths to feeding. I also have had a cat for the past 6 years and know how to care for them. I recently moved away from home and am missing my furry friends. I would love to love and care for your furry babies. I am a medical student taking classes during the week but do have some potential time for afternoon and evening walks. My weekends are more free for walks and plenty of care and play time. I always keep a safe and clean environment for my pets and your pets to live and play in. I make sure they have sufficient water, food, and are surrounded by their favorite toys.

“Christy was an amazing dog sitter! She provided regular updates and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. One of my dogs has diabetes and needs insulin twice a day; Christy was able to administer the insulin no problem. I knew my dogs were happy and well cared for with Christy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 12. My family and friends would ask me to pet sitting sometimes. I also trained my own dogs too I’m available weekdays before 9 and after 5 pm and weekends all day from very early to late. I don’t mind staying overnight. It’s ok for me I have toys for cats, scratches, a tower and a good space to take care of your pet without any problems. I’m also open to get some dog toys.

About: I’ve been a dog owner for years and have cared for pups at every stage of life—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who needed extra patience, gentleness, and consistency. I’ve raised one dog through his puppy years and lovingly supported two others through their golden years, so I’m comfortable with training basics, routines, mobility changes, medications, and slower-paced walks when needed. Over the years, friends have trusted me with their dogs while they travel, and now that I have more space in my home—and a large, fully fenced yard—I’m excited to do this regularly. My dog, Ochosi, and I love getting outside for long walks and hikes, and I’m happy to tailor activity levels to each dog’s age, energy, and needs—whether that means an adventurous trail day or a cozy afternoon of cuddles. As a bonus, my roommate is also a longtime dog lover and former dog owner, so your pup will get extra attention and affection beyond just me and Ochosi. Between our household, your dog will be surrounded by care, play, and consistency while you’re away. As an empowerment coach, I work mostly from home, which allows me to be present with the dogs I care for throughout the day. I do have occasional workshops, classes, and client visits that take me out of the house part-time, but I always plan my schedule carefully so pups get plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and companionship. Whether caring for your dog in my home or yours, I focus on keeping routines consistent, energy balanced, and tails wagging. I tailor walks, playtime, and downtime to each pup’s age and personality—from adventurous hikes to gentle strolls and cozy evenings. With a big fenced yard for safe outdoor play, plenty of affection from me, Ochosi, and my dog-loving roommate, and regular photo updates for you, your dog will feel secure, happy, and right at home.

“Rita was fantastic with my dog—caring, reliable, and attentive. Richard delivered great communication and kept everything running smoothly.”
