“Amazing! So appreciative of the quick visit, prompt replies, and the photo updates. The cats came to say hi which is a good sign, they usually hide the whole time. Thanks, will definitely reach out again.”
“Jalyne has provided fantastic support of our cat Mindy across several vacations. Very reliable and a great communicator. We will definitely be working with her again during future vacations.”
“Huidan, is very professional. She communicatea well, came on time and try to comfort my dog as much as she could given it was first time my dog met her. She fed him refreshed his water and played. I would use her again. Thank you for your work!”
“Becky is amazing! You can tell immediately she is an “animal person” by her energy, and I knew our girls would be in fantastic hands. I was extra nervous since one of our kitties has anxiety and is on medication - it’s a lot to ask of someone else to care for her - but Becky was completely unfazed and didn’t hesitate for a minute. I was totally reassured every minute we were gone and was actually able to enjoy my vacation knowing Becky had everything handled. Thank you, Becky!”
“Lori was extremely reliable and thorough while caring for my two cats. She is also very communicative and quick to respond to messages. I’d trust her with my cats any day!”
About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of pets—dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, reptiles, and more! From walking and feeding to bathing and overnight sitting, I’ve been the trusted go-to for family, friends, and neighbors. I truly believe animals bring a special kind of peace, and in return, I give them all the love, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet will be in safe, loving hands while you’re away, so you can relax knowing they’re well cared for. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week, including weekends. I make sure each pet receives consistent care, playtime, exercise, and companionship while following their normal routine as closely as possible. I approach caring for pets with love, patience, and a deep understanding of their individual needs. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize creating a comfortable and stress-free environment. I make sure to stick to their usual routines—feeding, walking, and playtime—so they feel secure and at ease. If I’m in your home, I ensure everything remains as you left it, with added attention to your pet’s safety and well-being. In my home, I provide a cozy, safe space where your pet will get plenty of affection and care. My goal is for your pet to feel like they’re with family, wherever they are.
“Andrea is a cat lover who took excellent care of my kitties while I was away! I would definitely use her again. My cats seemed to like her and they were very happy when we returned”
“Emily dropped in once a day to check on our two cats for several days while we were away. She is EXCELLENT with communication. We never had a doubt that our cats werent getting enough love with Emily. 10/10 would ask Emily to cat-sit again! Thanks Emily!”
“Drew took amazing care of my cat Lola while I was away on vacation. This was my first time using rover and he immediately put my mind at ease! He had great communication and sent daily updates.”
“Valerie was great! She came for a meet and greet as this was my first time using Rover. I felt way more comfortable than boarding her. Will definitely use Valerie again!”

About: I’m reviving my Rover profile from pre covid! I have over 10 years of animal care experience and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I work full-time in property management, but my flexible schedule often allows me to bring dogs with me throughout the day. I love walks, playtime, and giving dogs plenty of attention and care. I’ll treat your pets like my own! 🐶❤️ I work full-time doing property management in New Rochelle. My schedule is super flexible, so I can still keep some company, like your fur baby. I live with my grandparents, who have a large private yard. My workplace has a pet park on the roof and a pet-friendly cafe on the street. Perfect place for pup cups!
“Annabel did a great job for my 2 cats while I was away for a week. She sent great pictures and even cleaned up when they got into a treat bag one day. Highly recommend!”
“I’ve only had one experience with Janelle so far but I know/hope there will be more. I reached out very last minute (two days before needing help) and she responded right away, was able to make a FaceTime meet & greet and my puppy loved her. She was lovely to work with and I felt like my little 3 month old guy was in great loving hands.”
“Patrícia was great! It was our first time having a rover sitter in our new house so our cat was a little scared but Patrícia handled it well. We absolutely trust her with our pet and property! Thanks!”
“Outstanding sitter! Great communication and lots of updates! We can tell our sweet kitty was in great hands while we were away and will use Michelle again in the future!!”
About: I bring attentive, knowledgeable care tailored to your specific creature and their specific personality. I've been pet parent to dogs of all sizes, from Chihuahuas to Great Danes to my current Sheepadoodle — there's no dog size or personality that's too much or too little, IMHO. And my experience extends well beyond dogs — cats, snakes, farm animals 🐐, and more. I also happen to share my home with a ball python named Fettuccine Alfredo 🐍, who is a distinguished, low-drama fellow. As a plant parent, I will watch after yours indoor jungles, outdoor gardens, that one fiddle leaf fig you're nervous about. If you need someone who will actually look at your monstera and not just splash water in its general direction, that's me. (My avocado tree, grown from a pit, is thriving. I'm not taking questions.) Housesitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, basic training — I've got you. And if you're going away and need the whole ecosystem looked after, pets, plants, and all, I'd love to meet you. Pet care fits naturally into the rhythm of my week. My mornings are consistently free, which works well for walks and drop-in visits, and I have flexibility on Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends for longer stays or housesitting. On days when I'm teaching in the afternoons and evenings, I'm still available in the mornings — and I keep my schedule intentionally manageable so I'm never stretched too thin across clients. This isn't something I'm squeezing in around a packed schedule — it's something I've made genuine room for. When I'm in your home for drop-in visits or housesitting, I treat it with the same care and attention I'd give my own. That means following your routines exactly as you've set them, keeping things tidy, and making sure your pets are comfortable and unstressed in their own environment. I take detailed notes at meet-and-greets so nothing gets missed while you're away. On walks, I keep dogs leashed and attentive to their individual energy and needs — a reactive dog gets a very different walk than a social butterfly, and I know the difference. I bring over thirty years of animal experience to reading body language and behavior, so I'm not caught off guard by much. My own home includes a ball python and two cats, so I'm well practiced in managing a multi-species household safely and calmly. I don't offer boarding, which means your dog's visit to my home would only ever be for a meet-and-greet in a low-key, relaxed setting. In any situation that feels off — health, behavior, anything — I err on the side of contacting you immediately and getting to a vet if needed. You'll never be left guessing.
“MaryAnn was wonderful! She took great care of our older cat while we were on vacation and sent regular updates on how he was doing. We’d definitely recommend MaryAnn!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Port Chester
This was Jason's first drop-in visit with our two Great Pyrenees dogs and our Maine Coon cat. The boys met Jason at his meet-and-greet visit about a week in advance and the boys loved him from the moment he walked through the door. He's very comfortable with our big boys (115 pounds and 140 pounds!). Jason, overall, is fantastic-- professional, thoughtful, conscientious, and just a great guy. He followed all of our instructions to the last detail. We already have more days booked with him. It's such an enormous relief to find him so the boys can stay home together rather than staying at the kennel while we go out of town. Highly recommend him!

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

- 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.
