About: While I may not have a dog of my own just yet, I’m a devoted cat mom and lifelong dog lover! I’ve grown up around dogs and have plenty of experience caring for the pups of friends and family, whether that means going on walks, keeping them company, or making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their humans are away. I decided to turn my love for animals into something meaningful by connecting with pet parents in my community and lending a helping hand! I understand that your pets are family, and I’ll treat your pup with the same love, patience, and care I give my own cat. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply some extra company and cuddles, I’d love to be there for them! My schedule is pretty flexible! I work part-time at Starbucks just three days a week, and spend most of my remaining time at home balancing schoolwork and fitness. This gives me plenty of availability for last minute dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. Don’t hesitate to reach out with the dates and times you need, and I’ll get back to you asap! Every home and pet has its own routines, and I’m happy to work with yours! Just let me know your house rules, your pet’s needs, and any specific instructions you’d like me to follow beforehand
“Absolutely. I’d make it a little warmer and more polished while keeping it natural: Emily did an amazing job taking care of my two pups while I was away for two weeks. She was very communicative whenever something needed my attention, but was also incredibly independent and trustworthy in caring for them. It was clear from the start that she genuinely loves animals, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in her care. I would absolutely recommend Emily!”

I work each day of the week, but would be available early mornings and/ or evenings. I am pretty flexible Just let me know : ) Flexible to the owners needs to care for their pets in a way they prefer. With some extra TLC free of charge of course !!
About: I grew up with cats and dogs my whole life and have a deep love and compassion for them, and other animals of all shapes and sizes. I prioritize custom care to fit your pet’s unique personality and boundaries to ensure that not only they are happy & safe, but you are at ease and comfortable with me caring for your precious baby! Small to medium dogs only please ❤️🐾 I am highly available throughout the week, Wednesday through Sunday. I can come by as early as 7am and as late as 10pm to make sure your furry friend has their food, water, and necessary medication at the time they need it, so you don’t have to stress! I have one indoor-only cat who is the love of my life! I work part time as a receptionist at an animal hospital so my cat is up to date on all of his vaccines and exams. He has a sensitive tummy and feline asthma as well as a heart condition, so I am highly familiar and flexible with cats with any kind of conditions requiring medication administration, special diets or processes.
About: With more than 15 years of hands-on experience in the canine industry, I bring far more than a love for dogs to every service I provide. I’m the owner and founder of The Canine Legacy LLC, a professional canine care and education business, as well as the founder and owner of Dog Moms of the South Shore, a community of over 5,000 local dog owners. I’ve invested thousands of dollars into my professional education, certifications and continuing development because I believe exceptional canine care begins with knowledge, experience and an understanding of each dog’s individual needs. My professional background includes formal education through CATCH Canine Trainers Academy, Pet CPR and First Aid certification, and ongoing studies in canine behavior, training and nutrition. I’ve successfully completed my CATCH coursework and examinations and am currently completing the final hands-on mentorship requirements. I specialize in positive reinforcement-based training, canine body language, enrichment, socialization, confidence building, leash reactivity and individualized care. I’m experienced with dogs of various breeds, ages, temperaments and behavioral needs, including puppies, senior dogs and those requiring additional patience or specialized handling. Through The Canine Legacy, I provide professional dog walking, structured walks, enrichment sessions, drop-in visits, training, and individualized canine services. My business is registered and insured, and I’m committed to maintaining high standards of safety, professionalism and communication. I understand that trusting someone with your dog and access to your home is a significant decision. My goal is to provide dependable, knowledgeable and compassionate care while giving you complete confidence that your dog is in capable hands. Every dog deserves care tailored to their individual personality, needs and lifestyle. I look forward to getting to know yours! As the owner and operator of The Canine Legacy LLC, professional pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Unlike someone offering pet sitting as a side job, I’ve built my career around providing dependable, individualized care to pets and their families. I manage my own schedule, allowing me to accommodate a variety of needs, including regularly scheduled walks, drop-in visits, puppy care, enrichment sessions and occasional last-minute requests when availability permits. I understand the importance of consistency, particularly for pets who thrive on established routines. I work closely with each client to develop a schedule that accommodates their pet’s individual needs while prioritizing reliability, flexibility and quality care. Whether you need ongoing services or occasional assistance, I’m happy to discuss your needs and determine how I can best accommodate your pet and your schedule. Your pet’s safety, comfort and well-being are always my highest priorities. With over 15 years of professional experience, formal education in canine behavior and training, and Pet CPR and First Aid certification, I bring a knowledgeable, proactive approach to every visit. As the owner of a registered and insured pet care business, I take my responsibilities seriously and maintain high standards of professionalism, safety and communication. I provide care in my clients’ homes, where pets can remain comfortable in their familiar surroundings and maintain their established routines. I carefully follow all feeding instructions, exercise requirements, medication directions and household preferences provided by each owner. I believe in positive reinforcement, enrichment and individualized care. I’m experienced in recognizing canine body language and adjusting my approach to accommodate different personalities, temperaments and behavioral needs. For cats, I prioritize respecting their boundaries, minimizing stress and allowing interactions to happen at their comfort level. I take additional precautions during walks, outdoor activities and home visits, including checking equipment, securing doors and gates, and remaining attentive to environmental hazards. I also understand the trust involved in allowing someone into your home. I treat every client’s property with the utmost respect and provide consistent communication, updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable and receiving exceptional care. My goal is simple: to provide the same level of care, attention and respect that I would expect for my own pets.
“Laura did a great job checking in on our 4 cats while we were out of town for our wedding. Having her excellent communication, report cards and photos really put us at ease knowing our kitties were happy and well taken care of. Thank you so much Laura!!”
“Christina helped us with a drop-in visit on very short notice, leaving us three very happy dogs. She showed a quick understanding of their unique personalities, and gave us a nice summary of all their activities, including photos.”
About: I have been around dogs and other pets my whole life! I grew up with Rottweilers and my family currently has Bernese mountain dogs and boxers so I understand the energy that fuels these big babies. I have experience with cats along with other animals ranging from farm to reptile. I have changed dog diapers, administered medications, and have provided care from puppy to senior. My current life does not allow for a dog and I just have a lot of love to give! I’m a teacher on summer break who also does not have much of a social life. I am very flexible currently and can fit with your schedule! I’m comfortable with what you are comfortable with! I have administered meds, changed dog diapers, and understand the importance of a watchful eye (my family dog will eat poop if she could).
About: I have 1-2 years of experience of caring for dogs and pets throughout college! I have specifically cared for medium to large sized puppies and seniors! I am great at dealing with energetic dogs who love to play as well as chiller dogs who love to lounge. I am currently a full time graduate student at Boston University, but I am largely available on weekends and nights! I can house sit on Friday and Saturday nights, and can go on walks everyday at night! My apartment building has its own fenced dog park with room to run and play. I can bring my own pee pads, treats, and toys!
“Micky was great at communicating while I was away and took great care of Lulu when she was stressed or anxious. Even bathed her when she ended up peeing on herself! Will be rebooking for boarding if traveling again :)”

“Breanna is amazing, very caring knowledgeable of dogs. She is very trustworthy,And caring. She did drop in for my two dogs while I was on vacation. I would definitely use her again.”
“Catelyn was very conscientious. She admitted that she was new to sitting for cats, mostly has taken care of dogs, but my cats got on with her well. One is 20 and basically sleeps. Catelyn had her playing with a felt ball. The other is usually very shy and gets snarky with strangers, but Catelyn got her to play as well. She contacted me if she had concerns. She sent pictures frequently. She offered extra assistance if needed. The house was clean when we returned home. Overall a good experience and I would recommend her.”
“Jordan was truly wonderful! She took excellent care of our kitty and we completely trusted her with a complicated feeding schedule. She also went above and beyond keeping our home and the food area clean and tidy. Would highly recommend!”
“Anna took excellent care of our two cats and home! She followed all instructions exactly as we left them, sent lots of updates and photos, and left our home in absolutely perfect shape. We're thankful for not being worried at all about our cats and home while we were away on a short trip and would love to book with Anna again in the future!”
About: I personally walk or hike my dog every day despite inclement weather. I own a high energy power breed. Ensuring he is given a high quality of life and general enrichment daily. I would love to give your dog the same. Through walks, hikes, or adventures letting them fulfill their needs so they come home tired in the best way possible. I understand dogs on a deeper level through body language and “why do they do that” I want to be a support or an aid in your life to help you with your fur baby. Thus creating a higher quality of life and care. My focus is respect, communication, and creating a relationship with your dog so they feel safe and can enjoy their time to the fullest. I strive to give high quality care. I would do this through play, training, walking, and enrichment. I own a German shepherd named Zeus and I love my life with him. Together we have traveled 11 states just the 2 of us. I focus on creating a safe, welcoming, fulfilling, enriching, time. To our dogs, we are their entire world. I want to support you in giving your dog the best quality of life. Safety and respect are my priorities. Along with communication through the app, and photos.

I trust her with my dog and two kitties - that says it all! I can see in all the photos she sends that they love to see her when she cares for them! She even made sure to clean up messes the kitties made on the rug while I was traveling. Her honest and timely communication is very appreciated. Highly recommend Madeline!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Rockland is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $28 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 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 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 Meet & Greet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rockland. On Rover:
- 81% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 87% 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
