Priscilla was incredible with my senior pug, who has multiple health issues. She was kind, attentive, and her photo updates brought so much peace of mind while I was away. Thank you, Priscilla, for your wonderful care.

About: Worked at a pet daycare for over a year, experienced with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, plus dog walking and in-home pet care experience :) I would like to fill my weekends up with walking/sitting. I am in school currently and babysit during the week so weekends are only availability I will do everything that’s needed to keep your pet happy and healthy. I can administer medication if needed or crate dogs after I leave.

Emma was so kind and easy to work with! Shared pictures and an update of my two cats everyday. The cats seemed very calm when I got home, so I know they were well taken care of.

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.

About: Even if it's just a quick drop in for a potty break, I always make sure your pet gets some extra attention & snuggles. I am meticulous about special dietary needs & medication administration. Right now, I am available during the day mon, thurs, fri, and sun. I can also do evenings all week. Hoping to be able to add more availability to my schedule I always make sure that pets aren't able to get out if they aren't secured on a leash, or in a fenced in yard. I make sure to let other dog walkers know if a dog I'm walking isn't friendly. Temperature and terrain is always taken into account when dog walking

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was little. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I have experience with larger breeds like Pit Bulls and Cane Corsos as well as smaller dogs like Yorkies and Mini Poodles, and I’m comfortable adjusting my care style to fit each dog’s personality and needs. As a student working part-time, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care seamlessly into my routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting on weekends and weekdays. I provide care in your home to keep your pets comfortable in their familiar space. I’m attentive, respectful of your home, and make sure to follow your pets’ routines closely so they feel safe and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals over the past 10 years, including raising my own Bichon Frise for 8 years and hosting a British Shorthair cat in my home for 2 years. Friends and family often turn to me to help care for their pets—dogs, cats, and even more unusual animals—because they know I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely passionate about animals. Whether it’s walking, feeding, bathing, or just giving lots of love and playtime, I’m experienced and trustworthy. I’m currently on summer break from school, so I’m available every day to care for your dog or cat. With a flexible schedule, I can give them plenty of attention and playtime throughout the day. My home has a spacious living room where your pup can play freely and safely. I’ll be by their side to keep them company, make them feel comfortable, and ensure they’re happy and cared for at all times. Our neighborhood also has beautiful green spaces—perfect for daily walks and outdoor fun.

We went on a 10 day trip to Europe. One of our dogs is a pit/rottie mix so we were especially worried about a sitter entering the house while we were away. Helene was amazing. She got along with the dogs wonderfully. We received photos of our babies playing every day. It was such a relief. We weren't worried at all with our dogs in Helene's care. Helene helped make our vacation worry-free.

About: I’ve pet sat for neighbors’ dogs of all ages since high school, and I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and cleaning up waste. I’m also very routine-focused—I stick closely to your dog’s schedule so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I grew up with a mutt who recently passed, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy, lovin, and caring for your dog. I’ll treat your pup like my own and provide daily updates with photos, plus quick notes on meals and how their day went. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I work Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons into early evenings, and Sunday mornings into early afternoon. Outside of those hours, I’m available for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and extended visits. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide consistent care, along with daily updates and photos so you feel confident while you’re away. 🐾📸 When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walking routines, and any household rules you have in place. I make sure your pet always has fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention and comfort. For dogs, I’m careful with leash safety, door safety, and picking up waste on every walk. For cats, I keep litter boxes clean, make sure doors and windows stay secure, and respect their comfort level—whether they want playtime or quiet companionship.

About: I have been taking care of pets for over 20 years, starting with my first job as a dog walker and pet sitter. I have continued this on the side in addition to my full-time profession (teacher) and would love to provide an open door for your dog(s) as well! My schedule is very fluid and I get multiple breaks throughout the day, so there will be very little alone time for your dog, however, as a teacher and a coach I have some weekdays that are busier and your dog may be left in the home for 2.5 hour windows until I return from coaching. *currently on paternity leave and home all day* I will ask you to provide any specifics in terms of pet care for your dog prior to having me pet-sit, unless there are no special requests. If no special requests are given, I take the dogs out about 4 times per day - twice for short bathroom trips, one short walk, and one extended walk. If the dog is older or lower energy I will adjust the extended walk to another short walk.

About: If you're looking for a dog-lover and loyal caretaker, I'm here for you and your pet! I'm happy to provide a loving space for your pet while you travel, or walks when needed. I work from home mostly--I am in the office two days a week (every Tuesday and Wednesday.) All other days I am flexible with my schedule. Pets are welcome on my furniture--while they are here, they are free to make themselves comfortable! Playtime, walks and car rides (if they like them) are encouraged.

Monica had been the best dog help we could dream of. our Charli loves her so much. We booked her for 8 days of drop in visits, and every day that she was with our Charli she takes lots of pictures and write notes of what she did to Charli ( like a summary of her visit) , which me and my hubby really loved. We are booking her again june to november while im away for travel work… we love you Monica

About: As a kid, my family would often take care of our friend's dogs, but we never had one of our own. Now, I'm a dad of three young humans and one bundle of fluff named Simba. Oh and let's not forget Victoria, our rabbit. We love havinganimals, and we still love watching other people's animals too. I'm also offering to house-sit, and take other people's dogs (either solo or with my Simba) for walks. I mostly work from home and never leave a dog alone while in my care. We take several walks per day, including morning, lunch, and at least two in the evening. I have a comfortable living space, a nice yard area, nice green space and a park nearby. When dogsitting, I take very little space for myself and leave the space better than when I found it.

About: Hello! I’ve been caring for dogs since my own pup was just 8 weeks old. From fun off-leash adventures to cozy times at home, I’ve helped my dog grow into a friendly, well-socialized little buddy. I also enjoy walking g and looking after my brother’s dogs (medium and larger size). I always make sure each pet gets the attention they deserve and it makes me happy to see them happy and cared for. Thank you for reading this and I can’t wait to help you too. I’m currently taking a break from my professional career to spend some more time at home with both my children and pup. My kids are teens and at school during the day so I have time for extra dog walks and care. I have a fully fenced in large backyard and my Cockapoo pup is super friendly around both people and other dogs. I’d want to meet and greet before caring for your pup to ensure we are all comfortable and I understand how you’d like me to care for your pet in your home or around your neighborhood.

My experience with Robyn was excellent! She is extremely reliable, very good at communicating, and followed all instructions for my puppy, Potato. I received regular photo updates, and she made sure he stayed on his feeding, walking, and potty schedule. She even accommodated a last minute time change, which I really appreciated. I felt confident that he was safe and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely book again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy, pet sitter !

Fionnuala is as always, a life saver. She makes herself available, even on the shortest of notice. My dog is a high energy, jumping handful. But she's great with him! I'm so appreciative of when she's able to stop in and care for my fur baby.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Pearl River

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Pearl River on Rover is $27.75 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 Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 24,921 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Pearl River. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Pearl River stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Pearl River choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Pearl River with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.
