We’ve raised them since they were just 2 months old, and they’ve grown into playful, gentle companions. Our love for dogs runs deep, and we’d be thrilled to welcome your furry friend into our home. As a courtesy, we offer a gentle shower at the end of each boarding to keep your pup fresh and happy. I am currently working from home and I have time to play with them all day in the backyard. Training can be provided upon request I have a fenced backyard and two friendly dogs to have your fur baby company. We also share your baby’s daily activities via videos and photos.

I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my 2 dogs, Ender and Petra. From the very start, communication was excellent. Maria was responsive, attentive, and made sure to keep me up to date. I reviewed photos and saw how happy and relaxed both pups were. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and professional. Will certainly book again! 🐾

About: I have raised my two cats Ginger and Marble since they were a few weeks old, and they are 8 now. While I’m away at school (Babson College in Wellesley), I miss my cats and would love to take care of your pets. I often take care of my cousins’ dogs, and my girlfriend’s dogs as well. I schedule my life around the needs of your pets. My classes are from Monday - Thursday in the afternoon, so I can walk pets in the morning or evening every day. Walking is one of my favorite pastimes so I can spend a lot of time outdoors with your pets if they like that. I feed my cats a variety of cat foods and real natural foods, and will care for yours however you prefer. Also, I refill the water for pets often so they have fresh water, and my cats like to drink straight from the sink. Also, I am very tidy, and will make sure your house stays very clean.

About: I love animals, grew up with them since I was a baby, Cats, Dogs, Lizards, Fish, and Birds. I think to me they are people with fur. I love meeting new animals and getting to know them and play with and taking care of them. If I had tell you once thing that makes me who I am, is my heart. I always give 110 percent and I am very upbeat and caring. I am an award-winning filmmaker, writer, and actress, and this is the puurfect side hustle for me! I don’t have a typical 9-to-5 schedule, and my hours are always changing depending on which project I’m working on. This gives me the flexibility to provide loving care and attention to your kitty or dog when you need it most. I would prefer to come to your home so your pet can stay in their own familiar environment, where they feel safe, secure, and comfortable. I would always follow the instructions and routines you provide first. If you don’t have any specific instructions, I like to let the pet set the pace. With cats, I’ll give them space and let them come to me when they’re ready. I’ll feed them according to the schedule you recommend, and I’ll spend time getting to know their personality and seeing what they enjoy. If they want to play, I’ll play with them! If they prefer to relax, I’ll let them do their thing while keeping a watchful eye on them and making sure they’re happy and comfortable. For dogs, I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. I’ll take them for walks and, when appropriate, we can visit a nearby park to help them burn off some energy. I’ll make sure they have fresh water and food, and I also enjoy working on fun training exercises and basic commands such as sit, down, and paw. This gives them a chance to exercise both their body and their mind. After some play and training, we’ll go for another walk to help them wind down and get ready for bedtime. And if you have me stay over to the next day I will work on a schedule you set forward. Depending on what type of dog breeds need different type of support.

About: I have experience caring for dogs through regularly dog sitting for my friends and their pets. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, giving lots of attention, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I genuinely love spending time with animals and treat every pet I care for like my own! I am currently working full time but I have weekends off, and sometimes a day or two during the week so weekends are best but feel free to reach out about weekday availability! I have a fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time and play. I also have a cat at home, so I’m comfortable caring for pets and making sure everyone has a safe, calm, and comfortable environment. I always follow each pet’s individual routine and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and love.

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.

She took the initiative to call the vet and bring him in for care. She went above and beyond to ensure he was OK, and kept us informed of how he was doing until we got back home the next day. We highly recommend Alice - she is kind, responsible and communicative!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - 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 September 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 September 2026, there are 25,175 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
  • 96% 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.
