“Boy. Where do I begin. Jennifer is amazing!! Very reliable and intuitive and really helped me out during an emergency while on a work trip. She was able to accommodate some extra visits on the fly. And my little cat man was very well cared for. Pics with each visit. Play time. He really took to her and was so happy and stress free when I got home. Thank you again Jennifer!! Highly recommended. A++++. Star sitter indeed”
“So Thankful for Brooke! She did everything that Milo and I needed her to do. It is clear to me from the photos that my dog to an immediate liking to her. I’ll most certainly be taking advantage of her assistance while she is home from school”
“Carol played with my puppy for an hour and it was really cold outside. I offered to let her take a warmup inside but she chose to keep going since they were staying warm being active. My puppy enjoyed the playtime and had a good nap afterwards!”
“Terrific and super reliable sitter! Arrived at all of my requested times and sent nice photos as updates. My cat even stayed out and met her a couple of times which is rare for him! I felt comfortable and very happy with Tara’s services, will definitely use again and would absolutely recommend to others”
“Amandine has a great sense for animals and their behavior. She was very patient with my stand-offish kitty and with my approach to introducing new folks to my cat. A true Gem! Highly Recommend!”
“Well, today is Shawn’s last day with; I don’t know who is going to miss him more… me or Max! It was such a relief to know that Max was being well cared for while I worked late these past few weeks. Shawn is amazing and a truly conscientious individual. I know Max appreciated having him care for him. I am going on vacation in June and will have Shawn care for Max if he is available on my date. Thank you Shawn, for being the wonderful man you are! See you soon! Max and Diane”
“Holly was amazing making sire my cats, Luna and Milo were well taken care of. She wqs always in touch and sent me plenty of photos every day. Will definitely ask for Holly again!”
About: Hi, I'm Sarah! For the past 10+ years I've cared for animals of all shapes and sizes — from horses and exotics to the cats and dogs I grew up with. I currently share my home with my two cats, Myska and Oreo. I'm good at reading animal body language, and I'm patient with pets who need time to warm up — shy cats and nervous pups are my specialty. During every visit or walk, I send plenty of photo updates so you always know exactly how your pet is doing. I work part-time, so I'm reliably available weekdays 11am–3pm for dog walks and drop-in visits. I'd love to meet your pet — send me a message and let's set up a Meet & Greet! I work part-time and keep my schedule open for pet care weekdays Monday–Friday, 11am–3pm — perfect for midday walks and check-ins. I can do up to 4 walks per day. I have 10+ years working around horses and dogs, so I'm very good at reading body language and spotting when an animal is uncomfortable. I'm patient with pets who need time to get used to a new person — we go at their pace, not mine.
“To say Leigh went above and beyond would be an understatement. She was excellent with my cat. Leigh is patient, accommodating, and was able to interact with my shy cat almost immediately. She pointed out some potential issues and gave suggestions on what to do. She was great, and I very highly recommend her!”

About: Love dogs all kind. First I pet seat my friend’s dogs when they were away. Then I got my own dog. Alaska is a 34 lbs pomsky. She is very playful and would like a company. I can take your dog to a dog park or the dog beach. Both of those amenities are next to my house. Moreover I have small fenced yard for playing with bunch of balls.I work from home , so have a lot free time to pet sit fur babies and take them for plenty of walks. If you are away for a short trip, book your pet a bed and breakfast inn in my house. I will take care of your furry friend either at my house or yours. Currently work from home. Very flexible. However prefer drop offs and pick ups in mornings. If pick up after 3 pm addition charge may apply I have fenced yard where. I can let dogs out for quick pee and play if needed. However I take them on walks at least 2 times a day. If good weather, I may take them to the dog park or rye beach
About: I’ve always been surrounded by furry friends! I grew up with two small Yorkshire Terriers, and for the past 7 years, my family has had a sweet terrier mix who I absolutely adore. Over the years, I’ve also helped care for neighbors’ pets and loved every minute of it. Now that I work remotely and spend most of my day at home, I’d love the chance to take a walking break with your dog or stop by to check on your cat. If needed, I’m happy to bring my laptop and work from your place for a while to keep your pet company while still getting things done. I’d love to help make your pet feel loved and cared for! Since starting a remote job, I'm able to leave my desk at home for a bit and drive to wherever I need to go to care for your pet. I'm available M-F during the day to check in, and I'm pretty flexible with time as I have minimal meetings throughout the day. I will treat your home with the utmost respect. I want everything to stay exactly the same as how you left it that morning. I realize it's a big ask to let a stranger in your home while you are not there, but you can have your trust in me that I will put all of my focus on your pet, and make my way back home as soon as my job is done.
“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!”
About: Dogs have been my world for 15 years. I've worked in daycares, training facilities, grooming, shelters, and now I focus on providing reliable walks and personalized care. I offer neighborhood walks during the week, and on weekends I also offer 90 to 120 minute off-leash adventure hikes for the weekend warrior dogs that love to explore and need to burn off some energy! Every visit includes photos, updates, gps and plenty of attention! Dogs are what i do! And because this is what I do professionally, I’m able to provide consistent scheduling and care, building relationships with your pup! Almost any given day you can find me working with dogs of all sizes and energy levels! I primarily provide care through structured outdoor hikes rather than in-home services. When working in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a calm, controlled environment.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Port Chester is $25
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Port Chester
Leigh saved the day for us when we needed someone to drop in on extremely short notice to check on one of our cats. Not only did she give us complete peace of mind, but she also went above and beyond by cleaning up some unexpected furball messes around the house. We are so grateful for her prompt help, reliability, and genuine care for our felines. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and dependable sitter!
Sarah was amazing with Zookie!! She came over a day before to meet him and get oriented since my husband and I wouldn’t be home on her first day. Zook immediately loved her! She has been communicative, responsive, and reliable! Would definitely recommend and continue to have walking/checking in on our pup:)
Shawn was great! He kept us updated with pictures and notes, all instructions were followed to a tee, and he was very gentle with our two cats and they formed a bond, waiting for him at the window. We returned to happy kitties! So grateful for Shawn’s care and attention to our fur bbs!
Christie is simply the best! My kitty had an eye problem while I was away and Christie expertly troubleshooted it with such care and compassion. She truly loves animals and is very knowledgable. We are so fortunate to be in touch with her - we’ve used other sitters when Christie is not available but there is no comparison. 100% recommend!
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!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 26,056 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Port Chester. 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 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Port Chester. 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
