About: I am a just starting at Pace Law and missing my animals deeply. I have made a summer job the past few years dog sitting. I have a wide variety of experience, from caring for three 60lbs+ lap dogs for a week to three cats I would barely see. I love every animal like it is my own (smothered in love) and I make sure to take lots of pictures (I can’t help it!). I am starting my law school journey and I am looking to schedule in some animal time. I am completely free after 4 most days for walks or dinner time and have open weekends. I have lots of experience with animals of many different needs and can easily adapt to instruction. I will be sure to love your baby and provide care above and beyond.
“Vivian did such a wonderful job taking care of our cat, Gordon. She took great photos for the report cards, gave him lots of attention, and was on time for the visits. She clearly loves cats and is very responsible. We would book her services again!”
“Angie was great. She understands cat well. We left our kitten to her place, she took care of her and we didn’t have to worry about her. She was also flexible with the timings which I really appreciate as we were running late from our trip. She shared with us pictures of our cat and we felt relieved.”
“Becky was absolutely lovely to our cats and guinea pigs and we could tell from photos they warmed up to her very quickly. She’s incredibly thoughtful, kind and went above and beyond taking care of our crew. I highly recommend her for all your pet sitting needs, your babies will be in safe hands!”
About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover, especially when it comes to dogs! I’ve had dogs throughout my life, including my soul dog, Hazel, who will always have a special place in my heart. Having been a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can genuinely trust to care for your pets. I have experience caring for dogs and truly enjoy being around animals. I’m also a proud turtle mom to River! Having different pets has taught me that every animal has its own personality and needs, and I love getting to know what makes each one special. A little fun fact about me! The sweet senior dog in my profile photo is actually a Sato rescue from Puerto Rico. I had the opportunity to be a Flight Angel and help transport her from Puerto Rico to NYC so she could start her new life! It was such a special experience, and I’m so happy I got to be a small part of her journey. Something else about me is that I’d love to foster animals someday! I’ve always had a soft spot for rescue animals, and I hope to be able to help more of them find their forever homes in the future. I’m a responsible, trustworthy, and caring person who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company, I’ll always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know our pets are family, and I would treat yours with the same love and care I’d want for my own! I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in good hands while you’re away! Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and would love to make a regular part of my routine! I currently work during the week, but I have flexibility in my schedule and am happy to coordinate walks and drop-in visits around my availability. I’m also available on weekends! I love spending time with animals, so getting to incorporate that into my week is something I really look forward to. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and that’s something I take seriously! I always do my best to make sure pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, so I make sure to follow any instructions you leave, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medications, or just their favorite way to play! I’m also very respectful of people’s homes and will always make sure everything is left just as I found it. I’m happy to send pictures and updates during visits so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is doing well and getting plenty of love and attention!
About: I have experience with petsitting very anxious dogs, pets with special needs, and pets who need more attention than most. Just let me know ahead of time if your dog barks at everything so I can be prepared to soothe them. I'm pretty flexible with most pets! I'm available 24/7 in Westchester, NY. I need something to do to keep me busy since I don't have much of a schedule at the moment. Let me know if your pet has any special needs or preferences. Please bring toys or anything else your pet uses daily. I'm pretty flexible and I can sort out the rest of anything.
“Hanaya was absolutely wonderful! From start to finish she was incredibly communicative…keeping me updated and completely at ease while I was away. It is always a bit stressful leaving your pets home but I felt entirely confident having her look after them. She treated my fur babies with so much kindness and care truly treating them as if they were her own. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and highly recommend her!”
“Cassidy was amazing with our little Macho and very professional and lovely to work with! Thank you Cassidy for giving us the peace of mind in our vacation and for all the detailed updates while we were gone ❤️”
About: I grew up in a big family with lots of pets including dogs, cats, rodents, and birds. I have been successful in self-taught basic training of dogs. I am a graduate student who plans to have pet care be a source of income that fits around my schedule. I have classes during the week and currently live on campus which is why I cannot provide care in my home. I have owned many pets in my life and have cared for different ages from puppies and kittens to seniors. I enjoy promoting enrichment activities and physical exercise.
“Christian watched our cat and stayed at our place for 5 days and he was so awesome. He was always keeping us posted on how things were going and sending us pictures and videos, and just really made us feel at ease that all was going well. Has a very calm and friendly approach with animals, our cat loved him! Very trustworthy guy and we will absolutely book with him again :)”
About: I bring a unique blend of professional canine experience and true passion. As a K9 coordinator, I’ve worked with puppies, adults, seniors, and dogs with different temperaments. I offer foundational training for puppies, behavioral understanding, and specialized senior support. I treat every dog like family while still maintaining structure, safety, and trust. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I work with dogs every day as part of my K9 coordinator role. I’m already on a consistent schedule of training, enrichment, feeding, and structured play, so adding petsitting visits fits smoothly into my day. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, on the weekends and I plan my schedule to make sure each pet gets reliable, unrushed attention. I provide a secure, structured, and loving environment for every pet. Safety is always first doors are secured, hazards are removed, and pets are never left unattended in unsafe situations. I follow routines closely, provide appropriate care for age or health needs, and keep owners informed with regular updates. Pets under my care feel safe, comfortable, and wellloved.
“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!”
About: I am a law school student with lots of time to spend with your pets! I enjoy being outdoors and going for long walks which i’m sure your pup will enjoy. I have owned three dogs as well as volunteered at the Humane Society walking dogs. I have pet sitting experience from family members as well as neighbors and absolutely loved the time spent with all of these animals. I will be sure to give your pet the love and attention you would provide yourself, whether it be resting watching shows or running around in a dog park. Please let me provide you the comfort and reassurance of quality pet care your dog deserves! I do work a full time job M-F but have availability Friday - Sunday for full day needs and week nights and I am open to many different situations. Look forward to taking care of your pets! I am currently a student so there will be times i am unavailable and cannot do all day stays unless it is the weekend. I do have classes so at most i will be away for 2 hours maximum. I will be absolutely respectful of your home and your pets needs. I am comfortable in a variety of situations and can cater directly to your needs and expectations
About: I’ve been caring for pets for as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs of my own and a cat for 12 years, giving me over 25 years of hands-on experience providing daily care, companionship, and love. Over the years, I’ve also cared for pets belonging to friends, family, and neighbors, gaining experience with animals of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I genuinely love animals and enjoy building trust with them, whether that means active playtime, long walks, or simply keeping them company. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone reliable, attentive, and kind, and I take that responsibility seriously. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM, but I’m available for evening walks and drop-in visits after work. I’m also available for overnight house sitting during the week and on weekends, as long as your pet is comfortable being home while I’m at work. My weekends are generally flexible, and I’m always happy to coordinate a schedule that works best for you and your furry family members! I provide pet care in the owner’s home and follow each pet’s established routine and preferences to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Caring for pets in their own home helps reduce stress and allows them to stay in a familiar environment while you’re away.
“Hannah took care of our old man kitty for a week and she did such a wonderful job. She followed our instructions, gave Riley lots of love and care, and took care of our place while we were away. We will be hiring her again and recommend her highly! Thx Hannah !!”
“Susan is wonderful! She was so kind and patient with our sweet but anxious 14-year-old cat that we felt comfortable going away. Susan was such a pleasure to deal with, and she was very responsive and dependable. She kept us in the loop after each drop-in, giving us all the details about her visit. We can’t thank Susan enough and would definitely ask her to cat sit again without any hesitation!”
About: For almost all of my life I have had either beloved cats or dogs. I can do long walks or cat playtime. I am also an animal advocate. My small dog with a big friendly personality, who recently passed at age 14, was epileptic and I kept her close. We were besties. I got to spend a lot of time with other dogs with her. Before that I always had cats, I get them, and I find them all cute and hilarious. I have a flexible schedule, mornings are best, right now Mon-wed.. Can take a long walk or just hang out with your animal. Weekends are great. I live in Somers and work part time in Pleasantville. So anywhere in between is great. Will not be caring for dogs in my home at this time, unless very small/tiny and quiet. I can come to your house happy to travel if for a longer stay.
About: I've taken care of my parents labradors and Great Danes for years, had dogs throughout my entire childhood, and just absolutely love dogs. I am a recently separated military veteran & currently work remote. I can dogsit throughout the week and weekends - including overnights & can housesit or watch pets at my apartment. Your dogs will get plenty of outside time whether it is a walk around the neighborhood, at a dog park (if acceptable), or playing in your yard. Looking forward to caring for your pets as though they were my own. I can provide care for your pet as part of my daily routine throughout the day and overnight! Your pets are cared for like they are my own. I can only provide care at my apartment for dogs <50 lbs or cats. I am more than willing to come to your home and check on your animals throughout the day, work remote & care for your pets within your home, and even housesit/stay overnight as requested. I am flexible to your needs.
About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember since my family members and I have always had pets (my family in Colombia also has a farm so I’m used to being around all types of animals all the time)! I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, rodents, birds, reptiles, horses, etc...I’ve also worked at pet hotels in the past so I am very familiar with following instructions for both feeding and medication administration. I am also very familiar with pet supplies since I’ve worked at pet stores in the past as well! I am a very active person so if your pet enjoys running around, going on hikes, or anything of that nature, they’ll have lots of fun with me! I also DO allow fur friends on my bed and couch for cuddles and naps :) Walks: Saturday - Tuesday: 5:30 am - Any time Wednesday - Friday: 5:30am - 8am, 3:30pm - Any time Pet Sitting: Please message me so that we can further discuss options keeping in mind that I work in an office 9:00 am - 2:00pm Wednesday - Friday, however there is usually someone always home. Boarding: Message me so that we can further discuss options keeping in mind that I work in an office 9:00 am - 2:00pm Wednesday - Friday, however there is usually someone always home. I have two locations in Stamford where me and my team (my family) pet sit. The first location is right next to a dog park and near Cove Beach if that’s something your pet enjoys! I also currently own a cat, his name is Binx, however, if your pet is boarding with us, Binx will go stay with his aunt who he loves very much (and gets lots of treats from). The second location is conveniently located in downtown Stamford where your pups could go for walks and get puppuccinos and where your kitties can happily watch from the windows. If you have a feathered friend, they're free to roam within the apartment safely and if you have a friend with scales they can also roam freely and safely if you'd like.

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!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Purchase is $30 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $41 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
