“Greshma is great and our cat gives a big shout out and paws up too ! Great, care, play time and a good dollop of affection. We had a entry door key/ lock issue and Greshma was smart to contact me , communicate the problem and let me work the problem through and be patient and wait till the door lock solution solve was implemented. With understanding and patience Greshma was able to get in and take care of our kitty. That’s the pet care you want - Than you Greshma”

About: I dog sat for the same family for 2 years during their family vacations. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats I love all animals and would love to care for yours ! I work part time during the week and I am also a student, my weekends are usually free or mornings before 12 during the week. I live in a spacious townhouse with six other girls who are all animal lovers, so your pet will get lots of love, attention, and company during their stay! There are stairs throughout the townhouse, but I’m happy to accommodate your pet based on their individual needs. We don’t have a fenced-in yard, but there is plenty of space nearby for walks, outdoor time, and bathroom breaks. I don’t currently have a crate in my home, so if your pet is crate-trained or requires one, you would need to provide their crate for their stay. My main priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me!

About: I grew up in Oklahoma on 90 acres with cows, horses, cats, and dogs. I've always had a passion for animals and the outdoors. One of the unique experiences I offer is adventure outings for your pup. Living near the beach allows me to provide refreshing beach walks, and as an avid hiker, I also enjoy taking dogs on scenic trail adventures where they can safely explore and enjoy nature. I currently have two dogs of my own—a Miniature Dachshund and a German Shepherd mix we rescued. If your dog would benefit from a positive, supervised social outing, I’m happy to provide that as well. Growing up, I regularly cared for and walked neighbors’ and family members’ pets, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust. My goal is to give you peace of mind while your pet has a fun, enriching experience. You can rest assured that your furry family members will be cared for and loved as if they were my own. As a full-time dog dad to my two pups, I maintain a flexible schedule and am readily available to help ensure your pets receive the care and attention they deserve. Whether it’s a quick neighborhood walk for exercise or an extended stay with a pet who needs a little extra companionship, I’m here to provide dependable, attentive care. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and fully cared for. I am committed to providing a high level of personalized care and attention to every client. I ensure that when you book a walk or service with me, your pets receive my full, undivided focus. This dedicated one-on-one time allows me to tailor each visit to your pet’s individual needs, personality, and routine. I also have a spacious SUV available for safe transportation if needed. For dogs who enjoy a little extra adventure, I offer nature hikes as an additional service, giving them the opportunity to explore and exercise in a safe, supervised environment. Feel free to send me a message with what you’re looking for, and I’ll respond as soon as possible. I look forward to connecting with you and your pets!

About: I grew up in a big family with lots of pets including dogs, cats, rodents, and birds. I have been successful in self-taught basic training of dogs. I am a graduate student who plans to have pet care be a source of income that fits around my schedule. I have classes during the week and currently live on campus which is why I cannot provide care in my home. I have owned many pets in my life and have cared for different ages from puppies and kittens to seniors. I enjoy promoting enrichment activities and physical exercise.

About: I am a just starting at Pace Law and missing my animals deeply. I have made a summer job the past few years dog sitting. I have a wide variety of experience, from caring for three 60lbs+ lap dogs for a week to three cats I would barely see. I love every animal like it is my own (smothered in love) and I make sure to take lots of pictures (I can’t help it!). I am starting my law school journey and I am looking to schedule in some animal time. I am completely free after 4 most days for walks or dinner time and have open weekends. I have lots of experience with animals of many different needs and can easily adapt to instruction. I will be sure to love your baby and provide care above and beyond.

“From the moment we met Diana my dog and kitten both responded to her with no hesitation- my dog loved her from first meeting. Our trip was extended and she was flexible with all the back and forth changes . Which we really appreciate and was reassuring! Not only did she add on last minute service, she also was ready to adjust payment ( credit) for scheduling changes . I am thankful to have found her, and will happily ask for continued help with Diana!”

About: I have always loved animals and helping others. I’ve cared for many different pets over the years while working as a nanny. I even volunteered at a veterinarians office where I would help care for sick or abandoned pets. I am in college, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pet. My schedule is extremely flexible so I’m available most days/times. I am there to ensure your pet stays safe and happy, so I will always ask for your pet’s individual preferences that way I can support them in the best way possible.

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’ve taken care of dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors, and multiple dogs at once, and I always treat them like my own. I’m currently working part-time, I’m available for boarding on weekends and for walks or drop-ins on weekdays after 2 p.m. I want to take care of your puppy! I have a fully fenced yard and two very friendly dogs to keep your pup company! I always ensure a safe and loving environment, and I can crate your dog if needed or follow any specific instructions to keep your pet happy and secure.

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my whole life. Friends, family, and peers trust me to take care of their pets while they’re away. I made sure that they returned home better than ever like they went on a vacation too! I have experience with high-energy pups to senior dogs and can adapt to their personality and pace. I enjoy caring for animals from walking, playing, administering medication, grooming, and providing a calm space. What find most important is being patient and attentive to what your pet specifically needs. My top priority is always keeping pets happy and healthy. I’m currently on a break from school and not working on anything else. My dog, cat, and turtle keep me company in the house. I enjoy daily walks, visiting the park, and sunset outings. Rain or shine I’m available to go on walks, have playtime, visit parks, or give cozy cuddles. I’d be happy to take dogs out to walk wherever they’re most comfortable. I can also assist with grooming, clean up, take in mail, water plants, or any other tasks. I’m currently not taking pets into my home but I am willing to travel.

About: I bring a unique blend of professional canine experience and true passion. As a K9 coordinator, I’ve worked with puppies, adults, seniors, and dogs with different temperaments. I offer foundational training for puppies, behavioral understanding, and specialized senior support. I treat every dog like family while still maintaining structure, safety, and trust. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I work with dogs every day as part of my K9 coordinator role. I’m already on a consistent schedule of training, enrichment, feeding, and structured play, so adding petsitting visits fits smoothly into my day. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, on the weekends and I plan my schedule to make sure each pet gets reliable, unrushed attention. I provide a secure, structured, and loving environment for every pet. Safety is always first doors are secured, hazards are removed, and pets are never left unattended in unsafe situations. I follow routines closely, provide appropriate care for age or health needs, and keep owners informed with regular updates. Pets under my care feel safe, comfortable, and wellloved.

About: I provide calm, attentive pet care for dogs and cats who are happiest with plenty of individual attention and a familiar routine. I grew up around animals and have cared for pets for family and clients on both sides of the Atlantic. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person looking after your pet and, for house sitting, your home. For boarding and daycare, I offer a quiet home environment in White Plains with a large fenced yard and no pets of my own. I keep bookings intentionally limited, which means your dog is not entering a busy home full of unfamiliar animals. I especially enjoy caring for dogs who are very attached to their people, a little anxious in new environments, older, or simply happiest with more personal attention. I work from home and genuinely enjoy having a dog as part of my day. Depending on their personality and routine, that might mean long walks, time in the yard, play, lounging around the house, or simply having someone nearby. I follow each pet’s normal feeding, exercise, medication, and sleep routines as closely as possible because I believe good pet care should feel familiar to them, not like their entire life has suddenly changed because their people went away. I also offer in home pet and house sitting for animals who are most comfortable staying in their own space. I treat every home with respect and keep pets on the routines they know, whether that means a 7 AM walk, medication at a specific time, or a cat who has very strong opinions about where dinner should be served. My background is in hospitality and event management, so reliability, organization, and communication are second nature to me. You can expect regular photos and updates, clear communication, and someone who takes the responsibility of caring for your pet seriously. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal as an individual. Some want adventures. Some want the yard. Some want to spend the entire afternoon attached to your hip. I’m very happy to accommodate all three. 🐾 I work from home with a flexible schedule, so pet care fits naturally into my day rather than being squeezed in around a traditional office job. I keep my bookings intentionally limited so I can give each pet plenty of individual attention and build my day around their normal routine. Depending on the pet, that might include morning and evening walks, midday yard time, play, meals, medication, or simply plenty of company throughout the day. I’m home for much of the day and can accommodate dogs who enjoy being close to their person, while still following whatever routine they are accustomed to at home. My goal is to make their time with me feel relaxed, predictable, and genuinely enjoyable. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or theirs, I take the responsibility seriously. I follow feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any household instructions carefully, while also paying attention to the individual animal in front of me. At my home in White Plains, dogs have a calm environment, a large fenced yard, and no resident pets to navigate. I keep bookings intentionally limited and make sure gates and doors are secure before any outdoor time. I also follow each owner’s instructions around walks, sleeping arrangements, feeding, crating, and how long their pet can comfortably be left alone. For house sitting, I treat your home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. I keep things tidy, maintain your pet’s familiar routine, and send regular photos and updates so you can actually enjoy your time away without wondering what is happening back home. Before a first booking, I like to learn about each pet’s routine, personality, health needs, triggers, and emergency contacts so I can provide care that feels both safe and personal.

I have owned three dogs as well as volunteered at the Humane Society walking dogs.

I do work a full time job M-F but have availability Friday - Sunday for full day needs and week nights and I am open to many different situations. Look forward to taking care of your pets!

He was incredibly responsive, always provided videos and images of her, and made us laugh with a few jokes too :) Our cat doesn’t take too well to men or new places but she seemed very affectionate with Andrew which is a testament to how great he was with her! We’ll definitely be requesting his services in the future.”

About: I’ve long been the go-to sitter for friends and family, trusted to care for pets of all sizes and personalities as if they were my own. Growing up with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, and fish, I developed a natural connection to animals and an appreciation for their unique traits. With a background in management consulting and supporting ultra-high-net-worth families, I bring a polished, organized, and reliable approach to every sit. I value calm, well-kept spaces and believe pets thrive in environments that feel intentional and nurturing. While I don’t currently have pets of my own, I tend a thriving indoor plant collection and would be delighted to care for yours—pets and plants alike. With 10+ years of experience, I was able to jump right in on another home and pet sitting platform and earn multiple repeat clients. Although I’m newer to Rover, let’s connect and I’ll make sure you’re comfortable - ask as many questions as you’d like! I work remotely in the arts which gives me the flexibility to make your pets and home my top priority. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and health and have experience administering medications. At home, I share space with a 3 year old little betta fish who swims among clippings from my thriving plants. My green thumb is well-established—I’ve worked as both a florist and a gardener, and I maintain a lush collection of houseplants. Working in corporate America prepared me well with organization skills and the ability to prepare for any circumstance. I’ve managed global projects in multiple time zones and do whatever it takes to make sure everything is done right and safely. Having been a home owner, I understand the importance of safety and triaging anything regarding the integrity of the home. I make sure I have all contacts prior to any stay and understand what you’d like me to do.

Nicole was a lifesaver for our Thanksgiving trip. We recently moved to the area and struggled to find someone to watch our cat while we were traveling. We recently lost one cat a few weeks ago, so we were nervous about leaving her alone after so many years as a two-cat household. Nicole was prompt, and we could tell that Cupboard was well cared for.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Ossining

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Ossining is $25 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $44 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 11,482 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ossining. 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 .

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 , 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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ossining. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 , 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.
