“Maddie was very responsive and proactive about helping us update the care schedule when we were out of the country and couldn’t login. She took great pictures and provided thoughtful updates. We’re happy that she’s a local resource and feel assured that when we travel, our cat is well loved and taken care of.”
“Becky was absolutely lovely to our cats and guinea pigs and we could tell from photos they warmed up to her very quickly. She’s incredibly thoughtful, kind and went above and beyond taking care of our crew. I highly recommend her for all your pet sitting needs, your babies will be in safe hands!”
“Marta is very reliable and responsive. We had her to take care of our cat during our family trips. She was great with updating us and I’m sure we will ask her to take care of our cat again!”
About: I was a vet tech at the clinic I grew up by until recently, when I changed career fields. As a former vet tech, I am comfortable giving oral and injectable medications, working with special care animals (kidney disease/renal failure, epilepsy, diabetes, Cushings/Addisons, etc) and have wellbeing expertise beyond that of a typical sitter; if something goes wrong, I know protocol and when to get a vet involved. If you happen to have animals beyond just dogs and cats, I have large and small animal experience (livestock, especially horses, chickens, dogs of all sizes, cats, exotics) and pet sat for friends and family for years until I moved. I love animals and am looking forward to get to know yours! I'm working full time M-F but work nearby and have a lunch break in the middle of the day. I'm an active person and am happy to exercise your baby and give them lots of love. I care for your pets as if they were my own. I believe in not just doing what's necessary (feeding, potty breaks/cleaning the litter box) but also in giving mental and physical exercise. I'm happy to live on your pet or let them keep their distance according to their personality and needs.
“Wow. I can’t say enough about the quality of care Brandon provided to our active dog Coco (who needed medicine administered and extra TLC during his visit) and our kitty Cora. His communication with us and the animals was wonderful, he updated us in real time, and everyone was in great shape when we arrived home. We’ll definitely be rebooking with Brandon!”
“Corrine is meticulous and adhered to all the instructions that I left for my cat. All the photos that she took showed how happy my cat was. I would 100% recommend her to other people. Thank you so much Corrine!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since we first got our family dog when I was 15. I take care of my neighbors dogs/cats when they go on vacation as well as family members pets when needed. I currently have no pets in my home but would love to help you care for yours. I do work full time but definitely have time to take care of your pups. I am available for boarding Thursday nights to Monday nights or stop by your home when needed for a walk or just to hang out with them! I live in a complex with plenty of outdoor space and close by a walking path. My husband and I love dogs of all sizes and would love to take care of them!
“What a lovely cat sitter 💜💜💜 we had a last minute PANIC because our original cat sitter e for sick and couldn’t do it. Hansol swooped in at the last minute and was a massive help! Took great care of the cats and garden. Highly recommend.”
“This is the second time using her services. I hope my feedback will provide her with even more clients. Yasmeen is super sweet, patient and gentle. Sometimes, I checked the pictures, and feedback. Sometimes, I didnt because I knew they were in safe hands! Top tier service and peace of mind while we were away. Of course we will use her again!”
About: Hi! I'm Brittany. Nice to meet you! I have around 9+ combined years of experience petsitting and a lifetime of experience around animals. I have always loved animals and started dogwalking as a small side job in 2012 in highschool. I got my real start in 2018 working full-time for a small pet-sitting business, where I learned the ropes and built the skills I still use every day. Since about 2020 I have branched off independently and have continued to be a loved local petsitter for many clients in my area. Other than petsitting I work at a local pet store, if you know me please say hello! I value myself as trusted petsitter in my community, with many of my clients existing through referrals, past pet sitting connections, and from the pet store where I work. Several of my independent clients have also been kind enough to leave me Rover reviews during my initial arrival here. Most of my business actively continues through those channels, but I decided to keep Rover as a way to add a little extra outreach and connect with new families. Please let me know if you would like any extra references for your comfort. I am excited for the chance to meet more furry and non furry friends. I have experience caring for all kinds of pets including super seniors, puppies and kittens, and dogs and cats with a wide variety of medical conditions requiring administration of regular meds, treatments, or insulin. I am familar with pets with strict dietary requirements or regimens (dont worry its not too complicated!). I am comfortable handling strong pullers, leash aggressive/reactive dogs and have a gentle touch to be able to bond with fearful feral cats. I also have experience with aquatic pets, small animals like chinchillas, guinea pigs, hamsters, and rabbits and some experience with lizards and birds. I can also do water parameter testing on your aquariums if equipment is provided to me. Pets are truly my life! And I know your pets are Your life so I will always do everything to ensure your pets are loved, safe, and cared for while you are away and make sure we have lots of fun too! I work at a pet store 6 days a week from 10–6 with a midday break I use for visits. For pets needing 1 or 2 visits a day, they will happen before and/or after those hours. For overnight or 3x visit a day clients I will provide one of the visits during my lunch break. Since I work at a pet store, I can easily grab many forgotten or necessary items for your pet anytime. My schedule ensures I am usually only ever away for ~5 hours at a time. Pets I care for must be okay with some time by themselves, since my bookings are not considered 24/7 care (non -constant). If you need something more full-time, please feel free to message me and I may be able to work something out depending on the request. The schedule I keep generally works well for my clients and the majority of pet owners, but for special circumstances I can make adjustments for specific days if necessary Overnights typically include Dinner care through Breakfast care and a single return visit midday. I require all of my clients to provide up to date preferred vet information, emergency contact info and provide me prior authorization to seek emergency care for their pets. To this date I have never had to use that information for any emergencies, but I always ask for it. Other than that I will strictly follow rules requested of me, I never do any off leash without being explicitly instructed to, and will only ever provide pets snacks and food that are indicated to me to use for them. I will never take any unnecessary risks with your pet or with your home. I am always respectful with homes and try to leave them as close to how it was before or cleaner than when I arrived as possible. I will make sure plants are watered, mail is inside and check in regularly with images. I am also open to some video or voice calling with your pets if requested. I am unable to provide full home cleaning services, however, I will within reason wash requested items (such as bedding or towels), clean up after myself, and make sure pet areas and bowls are kept tidy.
“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.”
About: Hello there! I am a 34 year old teacher who provides animal care all year long, part time during the year and full time during the summer 😊 I have pets of my own, a dog and cat, as well as experience volunteering at animal shelters. I was previously an assistant manager at a doggy day care where I did everything from basic care and cleaning of the facilities as well as bathing and drying dogs, feeding, administering medications, enrichment play, walks and of course…cuddles! I care for my own pets, 1 dog and 1 cat everyday by feeding, providing love and treats as well as walks and enrichment activities. For clients, it is summer time which means my schedule is very flexible to help you out as best as I can! I treat every animal with love and it is their space so they choose the pace! I make sure to let them approach me and read their body language for what they are comfortable with.
“This was our first time using Rover and Danny was awesome! He was super communicative and always giving updates on when he’d be at our place. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience as we all know it’s hard to leave your fur babies! Thank you Danny!!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I take care of dog for friends and family or even neighbors. I tech them tricks or basic training things like drop, paw, leave it, seat etc. I have plenty of time to play with your dog and make it run outside or inside. I am a stay home mom and even weekends I work with my teenage daughter who is a pet lover too. I have a fence yard and two friendly dogs to keep your baby company. I also have crate in case if need it. they have plenty of toys to play and treats when they behave.
About: I have had always had pets growing up! I took care of my dogs throughout my life, and since leaving home, I have dog sat for many others. I am happy to walk, play with, feed, and bathe your dog! I am currently working part time and will soon be transitioning between jobs, at which point I am excited to spend more time dog sitting. I will ensure I know how to best care for each dog before walking them, so I can make sure to keep them safe and healthy.

Sofia is absolutely wonderful! She was a lifesaver for us when our flight home from vacation was cancelled due to weather and we couldn’t return for several days. She was very communicative, very loving to our cats, and even helped clean up a few out-of-litter box accidents. We completely trust her and could not recommend her more highly! Thanks so much Sofia, you’re the best!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Ossining on Rover is $26.14 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 10,938 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 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 Ossining. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
