“Margaret did a fantastic job checking in on our kitty while we were away for a week, making sure he got all the attention and playtime he needs. I loved receiving the detailed notes and pictures after each check-in! We will be reaching out to her again when we travel, for sure 😊”
“Megan was wonderful! She gave my super senior boy extra attention and helped him deal with his first alone time since losing his companion of 16 years. Will definitely be rebooking with her!”
“Mary took wonderful care of my Boston Terrier, Archie, for an extended period, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the level of care she provided. She arrived on time each day and shared plenty of updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. I highly recommend Mary and would absolutely use her again.”
“She was so kind and thoughtful with our sweet babies She gave off such a good energy, and I had no hesitations about leaving them with her. The care and love she has for dogs absolutely comes through. Would definitely book her again!”
“Colleen was amazing! Very friendly with our girls and great communication with us while we were out of town. Above and beyond even cleaning up after them in the yard!! Thank you!!”
“Cassandra was willing to care for my cats on extremely short notice and we did not even get to do a meet and greet in advance. Nevertheless, she was immediately able to bond with my cats and asked insightful questions and was very careful to be sure they were getting the right amounts of food and supplements. From the expression on my cats faces in the photos she sent, I can tell that the cats absolutely love her. I can recommend her highly and hope she will be willing to help us again. I think she is a cat whisperer!”
“Linda took great care of my kitty Betty, including making sure she got the daily exercise needed. During COVID, we did a video chat to meet which was perfect. I am so grateful she was available and will call her again.”
“Jeannette went above and beyond with taking care of our fur babies. We feel very grateful having her as our pet sitter especially for our pets who needed extra love and attention.”
“I W3S VERY nervous about leaving my dogs in the care of someone as well as allowing someone into my house while I was not there. My dogs immediately came up to her during our meet and greet. She took great care of my dogs while I was away. She sent tons of pictures and she responded quickly to any messages that I sent. She left my dogs and house in perfect shape. I will definitely rebook when I go out of town again! Thank you again Toni!”
“Colleen is fantastic!!! I have three cats and one dog, two of which are older and one is reluctant to eat and requires medication. I was super nervous to leave them especially since my older cat will just decide not to eat if any tiny thing changes in his routine. Colleen is an absolute star. She got right in and dealt with all of my pets’ individual needs as well as MY anxieties, lists and stickynotes. I got multiple texts with every single visit and she responded to MY texts immediately. I could tell with every photo or text she sent that my furbabes were getting excellent care. I definitely look forward to trusting Colleen with my furchildren again! ?”
“Dylan was always prompt and took such great care of our babies. I could tell by his pictures and check-ins that the cats were in great hands and upon our return home they seemed so much less stressed than they typically are when we’re away. He intuitively figured out a lot of their quirks, and we appreciate his attentiveness - we’d absolutely book with Dylan again!”
“Jordana was wonderful with my cat! She took great care of him and I felt good knowing he was in good hands while I was away. I will definitely look for Jordana the next time I go out of town!”
“Joey was communicative, reliable, and extremely caring with my cat and dog during a short weekend getaway. He sent lots of pictures with each walk/visit, which eased any worries that my babies were missing me too much. They both were happy, healthy and excited to see me upon my return, which tells me that they were well cared for and not anxious in my absence. Will request his help with my pets in the future!”
“Stephanie did a truly excellent job with my dog Odie. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top notch pet sitter. She is awesome and thoughtful and smart and Odie had a fun weekend staycation.”
About: I started dog and cat sitting this summer using TrustedHousesitters and so far have really enjoyed getting to take care of people’s pets! If you are curious to see my reviews there, I would be happy to send you a link to my profile. Before this summer, I had pet sat before via drop-in visits, starting while I was in college. During the school year, I foster cats for a local foster agency (Project Meow). While I don't have experience fostering dogs, I did grow up in a household with two dogs, and I love being around dogs as well. I often do my research from home, which means I am generally available for drop in visits and dog walking visits throughout the week. I also LOVE to walk and run, so am happy to provide LONG walks to your dogs! It’s a bonus if they can accompany me on a run! I’m a PhD student and all my research is conducted remotely. This means I have plenty of time to play with, cuddle with, and walk your pets. On Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, I do have classes which will keep me out of the house for about 4 hours. I take your pet’s health and care extremely seriously. I am dedicated to ensuring that your pets are comfortable at all times, and prefer to have a phone call/meet and greet before agreeing to a sit so I can understand just what kind of care your pet needs.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Rockland
Emily’s service was superb! She took personal time to come for a meet and greet with my cats and to pay attention to care instructions. We received many pictures and updates at every visit. We felt at ease knowing that she was taking care of our babies while on vacation. If you want a kind, trustworthy and reliable sitter, look no further!
Jeannette was fantastic! She took excellent care of our 2 fur-babies! Throughout her drop-ins, she sent photos and messages, giving us peace of mind. It was clear that Jeannette genuinely cares & made sure our kitties were happy, comfortable & well cared for. We will be booking Jeannette again & highly recommend her to take care of your pet .
Jamie is amazing! So trustworthy, readily available, genuinely caring about the pets he’s looking after & just all around great! I’ve used him a couple times now and am looking forward to using his services again going forward! He send pics and updates with every visit even without request. My cat got anxiety while I was away and he tried to do what he could to help & asked for updates about her afterwards!
We’d like to thank Cole for his amazing help! We were in a difficult situation when our dog sitter disappeared on the very day we left for vacation. I was so nervous my vacation could be ruined. We suddenly had to look for someone new while already away, fully expecting it to be a complete stranger. But thank God, Cole turned out to be an incredible person who immediately stepped in and took great care of our pets. We are beyond grateful! A million thanks!!! Highly recommended - 100%! 🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 3,933 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Rockland. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 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 cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rockland. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
