“Candice was terrific with both of our dogs — they have opposite personalities and they clearly both warmed up to her quickly. She was communicative, reliable, capable and loving, and we won’t hesitate to use her again!”

About: I've had dogs since I was a little girl and I love animals! I have experience walking dogs, pet sitting, babysitting, and housesitting. I love all animals no matter age or size. I'm currently working part-time so I am available most days including weekends! I am not available on Fridays. I am happy to help any other day. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I can keep your pet on a leash as well as avoid pulling on a walk. If your pet likes parks I would gladly take them!
“Crystal is always so good with my two cats! They absolutely adore her, and they’re hard to win over. She also effectively administered two daily medications for my cat. I rely on Crystal for all of my cat sitting at this point!”

“CeCe did a great job looking after and playing with my very shy cat. She was also very responsive and kept a close eye on things. As a result, I could enjoy my time away from home without stress.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since childhood, growing up in a dog-loving home with up to four pups at once ranging from 15 to 75 pounds! I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes, and I have experience with both playful pups and senior dogs. In college, I was part of the 4 Paws club, where I walked and watched service dogs in training, giving me extra skills to handle all types of dogs. I am available over the weekend to focus on the needs of your pet, whether that’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I’m flexible, reliable, and more than happy to build a routine that works best for you and your pet. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I make sure to put your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness first. I am more than happy to take your pet to local dog parks, if that’s something you’re comfortable with. If you prefer your pet stays in a fenced yard or neighborhood walks, that works too! I will always follow your preferences and your pet’s routine.
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.

About: I have taken care of dogs for the last 10 years. I am a dog owner and he is my best friend. I have helped out my neighbors and friends when they've needed me to walk, check in or sit overnight at their homes for their dogs. I really love animals, so this is the perfect job. I look forward to meeting and working with you and your doggy! I'm currently working part time now, so I have plenty of time to walk and play. Right now I'm available 7 days a week, pretty much starting from 7 AM to 9 PM. Please let me know if there's any issues or concerns you want me to be aware of before hand. Safety and trust are very important for both of us.

“Stephanie takes great care of all of our pets, is quick to respond to questions/concerns about them, and was able to accommodate our booking on a day's notice due to a family emergency that required us to travel immediately. I highly recommend her!”
“Cindy was phenomenal! I can immediately tell when my little guy is comfy and he was so happy, rolling over and showing his belly when Cindy arrived. It was so lovely having the peace of mind that he was in capable and loving hands. Thank you so much!”

About: My dog Chanel is my world so it would be a pleasure to share that same love to others. I’ve grown up around dogs between all of my family so this is a joy to experience. I currently work day shifts and very loyal to my schedule of care with my dog at home. It would be no burden or issue at all to care for others 4 legged friends. The same care I provide to my own as if she was my daughter is the same care I’d give to others pets. Any dog in my care is my family.
About: Large dogs are my specialty, I enjoy walking and playing with them. I have plenty of room to play in the back yard or go for a long walk on a nature trail. I have experience in kenneling, potty training and leash training dogs. I work full time but have every afternoon and weekend available. I would enjoy walking a pet after work and am available to do overnight care. I have a pet friendly and private apartment with a large private back yard. I am very close to the black river trail which is excellent for dog walking.

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!
“Vinny helped me ensure my pets had great care during a family emergency. I am forever grateful for his prompt help and excellent care, it was such a comfort to know my pets were taken care of and I didn’t need to worry about them at all. Thank you!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Peekskill
Corinne was absolutely amazing with our dog, Navi! She went above and beyond by meeting with us prior to the booking just to ensure Navi felt comfortable and safe with her. During the visit, she didn't just stick to the basics; she provided a perfect balance of playtime and exercise, letting our puppy burn off plenty of energy. It’s clear Corinne truly cares about the pets she watches. We couldn't be happier and highly recommend her!

Candice was great with our senior dog and shy cat. She was always responsive and communicative, and sent great pics of our pets! I felt very comfortable that our pets were being looked after and cared for, and I would definitely each out to Candice in the future. I feel lucky to have found her!

I am concerned a stellar review will reduce the availability of Kiera, but I'm leaving it any way! Keira was the perfect solution for our family, first time to leave target with a sitter. She was very attentive, left us thorough notes detailing his greeting and how they interacted. Pictures don't lie and I would definitely hire her again.

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 Peekskill 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.

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 Peekskill with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
