“Marta took great care of Misty!! (And cleaned up some unexpected messes too!) Misty was happy and well fed when we returned! Looking forward to booking with her in the future :)”
“Margaret was exceptional - she watched our two cats over this past week and was so caring and attentive to both of them. We have two cats with different personalities/needs, and she immediately tuned into both of them and was able to bond with both (not an easy feat!). We are very grateful to have had such a responsible, reliable, and caring sitter for our two fur-babies and would highly recommend her services.”
About: I have had my own pets since I can remember ranging from cats, dogs, iguanas, hamsters, fish, salamanders, hermit crabs, and even chicks. Growing up, I spent my summers on my grandfather's farm raising cows, horses, pigs, cats, dogs, chickens and a rooster. I don't have and human kids but I have raised many fur babies. I am the go-to person for family and friends, especially for pets with very specific care instructions. I am in NYC; I drive and have a pretty flexible schedule at this time. My career outside of pets includes Human Resources Management and Operation Director at different schools. I am currently working for myself as a treat maker so I am very flexible with time. I also have a clean license and reliable transportation. I am currently in NYC but can travel to Westchester County and northern NJ as well. I love when a client gives me detailed instructions and will follow them to a tee. I am a very organized person with a high attention to detail who often goes above and beyond in everything I do. Because I have worked with children and at schools, I have been fingerprinted by NYS/NYC, Dept of Health and the NYC Dept of Ed.
“Greeshma was reliable and fantastic! Our cat who is normally afraid of people, loved her. It makes leaving him so much easier knowing he’s in good hands. Thanks, Greeshma!”
“Becky was wonderful with our two cats! We recently moved to the area, and our cats are still adjusting to their new home, so it was especially reassuring to know they were in such good hands. Becky made sure they were fed, refreshed their water, cleaned their bowls and feeding areas, and kept their litter boxes clean. She was reliable and communicative, and we really appreciated the regular updates and photos while we were away. We would absolutely book with Becky again and highly recommend her!”
“Cece was fantastic taking care of our old man kitty while we were away. She gave him lots of love, sent lots of photos, and stayed in constant communication with us. We recommend her. Thank you!!”
“This was our first time booking anything concerning a sitter for our two dogs. We haven't gone on vacation in years because we were so anxious about leaving our dog with someone or some place. After reviewing different sitters we picked Yasmeen. She came over and had a trusting and pleasant energy. Had I not known my lab I would be nervous because he can be hyper initially. Yasmeen just put a treat directly into his mouth as if he was her dog! We were sold at that very moment. Our Maltese liked her immediately. She was willing to make all of us comfortable by fulfilling our requests. Keep in mind she had the keys to our entire home for a week while we were in another country! She did 3 drop ins per day. She sent cute, goofy pictures, potty info and events such as chasing bees for each visit. That relieved the little anxiety that was left while away. She even took our packages inside the house. We came home and they were happy to see us, but they also seemed to be at peace which we were thankful for. She also left us a little thank you note. We will 100% use her again!”
“So fortunate to have found Gail to help out with Boo. She very keenly & adeptly followed our instructions, kept me updated & proactively tried to engage our cranky aloof weird but needy 17 year old boy!”
“Brandon F. was FANTASTIC! He gave regular updates and sent photos of our Lucy to us. It was so great to be able to relax and know that our beloved pet was in good hands with Brandon. Would absolutely book him again!”
“We were so overjoyed with having Maddie stay with our cats for a week. She was extremely professional and took very good care of them. She was also very respectful of our home. We were able to relax on our vacation knowing that out cats and home were in such good hands. She ssnt daily updates and picture. Will be definitely be looking to book her again in the future.”
“This was our first time having Daniel and we were very pleased hoe responsible he was, and how he remembered our directions regarding how to train Luigi on The Walk. We definitely will reach out to Daniel the next time we need coverage.”
“Danny was friendly, prompt and diligent. Danny took care of our 17-year old tabby cat with care and attention. This was our first time using Rover; but hopefully will not be our last! Highly recommend Danny.”
About: Animals are a central part of my life and always have been. I’ve cared for everything from dogs and cats and more, and I truly treat every animal like my own. I understand how stressful it can feel to leave your dog with someone else, so I focus on providing attentive, loving care you can fully trust. P.S. I have a soft spot for snuggly pups and love long walks. I am currently an online college student with a very light course-load! So I have lots of flexibly and time to care for your pup! I have a fully fenced( with the exception of the driveway entrance- which can be fenced off while your pup plays outside) two acre property with 8ft deer fencing. I have two 60ish pound dogs who are very friendly and low key. Our dogs free roam the house yours can as well or can be in a crate if your prefer. We are pretty active and love to go on long sniffari walks!
“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.”
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 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!
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.

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.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Ossining
Georgina was amazing ! She took care of my cat on short notice and she communicated with me right away to confirm she was available and during the days I was away. My cat can be a little difficult with strangers but Georgina was able to feed her and spend time everyday! Thank you!
Maria is excellent! She is attentive and responsible providing love and great care our two cats. She was able to make friends with them - which is not easy. They are pretty aloof. I had lots of confidence that Winston and Shadow were well cared for the entire tie I was away. A big, big thank you!!
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!
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.

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 .

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 .

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.
