“Responded quickly, pleasant and did well with doggies (I have one large dog and one small), they took to her immediately and I was very happy about this.”
“Erica does an amazing job taking care of my cat! My cat has medical issues and requires oral medication (swallows pill whole) and has many supplements that have to be added to her food. Erica handled it all with care and confidence. Erica is also extremely responsive and didn't bat an eye when I handed her my crazy cat lady binder full of detailed instructions, which immediately put me at ease. It gave me so much peace of mind to know my cat was in such capable hands while away. I highly recommend Erica!”
“Gregg was fantastic. He’s knowledgeable about animal care, he’s super nice, and worked well with all of the instructions we left. We were just grateful to find someone to help us when our regular sitter was out, but Gregg turned out to be 10x better than we could’ve hoped for.”
“I cannot recommend Iris highly enough! She was so kind and patient with my timid pup. She took extra time to make sure my dog was comfortable and cared for. My dog really enjoyed her visit with Iris and I loved working with her. I look forward to booking her again!”
“Megan took care of our two cats while we were on a two-week vacation. They were a bit scared at first but she coaxed them out with treats and made sure they were eating two meals a day. I appreciated the time she took to get to know the cats and make them feel comfortable. After a few days, they warmed up to her and loved to be patted and cuddled. Megan also watered my plants and took in my mail/packages which I hugely appreciated. I would definitely book her again.”
“Your fur baby will be well looked after of with Daniela. She is very caring, thoughtful and has excellent communication and follow through. My dog fell in love with her. I was able to go out of town and feel confident that my girl was in good hands!”
“Nicole was absolutely amazing. So kind, thoughtful and attentive. We had to worry about nothing while she was caring for our babies. I would highly recommend to anyone and we will definitely be booking in the future”
“Amy was great!! Her knowledge about and love for animals was evident and she gave us great updates on our cat while we were away so we felt very comfortable. She went above and beyond leaving the cat areas even tidier than we left them. Thanks Amy!”
“Kristina, was above and beyond with Max! This was our first time leaving Max with someone else and I loved the great communication, pictures, and I felt at ease with her work! Thank you for everything!!”
“Alexandra was great for our stop-in visits with the catboys while we were out of the country. She communicated well and took great care of them. Will reach out to her again in the future when we are out of town.”
“Ashley is lovely! She braved bad weather and protestors to check in on my Minnie every day, always giving her lots of attention and keeping me well supplied with pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Sharmily is an excellent sitter! She is very reliable and doesn’t skimp on the updates and photos. Communication and handing off keys was also super easy both times I booked with her! My cat likes her a lot and she is a huge comfort to both of us when I am out of town. I will continue to book Sharmily when I need kitty coverage in the future, and would recommend her services to any cat mom/dad!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Riverdale Park
Our experience with Izcali was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we met, it was clear that she was dedicated to providing the highest level of care for our cats. Her ability to understand and cater to our pet's unique needs and personality traits was impressive, and her regular updates through photos kept us informed and connected throughout our time apart. Izcali's kindness, compassion, and dedication to her work are qualities that make her truly stand out. We are deeply grateful for the love and care she showed our cats, and we look forward to the opportunity to work with her again in the future. Thank you for providing a reliable and excellent service. Izcali is a true gem, and we feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with her.
So many great things to say about Natalie!! She took my booking the same day even though she was not feeling well earlier in the morning she still showed up to care for my Mocha! I had some internet issues right before she was do to leave out and she helped out even more by trying to assist me in fixing the issues with my internet so the tvs would be left on for Mocha while Noone is there. She is truly very caring and communicates very well during her visits! I can't praise her enough! Thank you for everything Natalie!
Emma is amazing with Santino! She takes such great care of him whenever we’re away. She sends photos after every visit, which gives us so much peace of mind, and it’s clear that Santino absolutely loves her. She even opened his Chewy box with him, which was such a thoughtful touch. We always know he’s in great hands with Emma, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly.
Lindsay was great with Mocha today. I'm one of those pet owners that enjoy detailed updates along with photos. She handled Mocha's lil accident in the kitchen without any hesitation was very thoughtful and kind about the situation which is a major plus in my book along with being on time she was even arrived a few mins early!! Highly recommend her services!! Thank you so much Lindsay!!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Riverdale Park on Rover is $24.98 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 August 2026, there are 17,822 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Riverdale Park. 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 Riverdale Park 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 Riverdale Park. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
