“Christie is the best! From the moment we met, I knew my kitty would be in the best of hands with her. Christie went above and beyond taking care of my cat, providing detailed updates and pictures, and even took care of house things that came up while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“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 is super thoughtful!!! He took the time to come visit the cats ahead of sitting to make sure we all get comfortable. He also takes the time to check in with you when unsure about the cats needs or behaviors, that was hugely appreciated! I will definitely reach out and o Shawn next time.”
“Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of our cat Yiyi! She was prompt and followed our detailed instructions to a T. We had an unexpected vet visit right before leaving town and Sarah was understanding and flexible when “giving medications” was added to her cat sitting duties. We would definitely use her services in the future!”
“Katherine did an amazing job taking care of Luna. We really appreciated her updates and attentiveness throughout the visits. We felt completely comfortable knowing Luna was in such good hands!”
“Hahaha is very responsive. She was always on time for check ins and treated my cat very well. I would definitely recommend her and I would book her again any day.”
“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: Dear fur parents—my name is Jane, and I have extensive experience with both cats and dogs. I’ve had pets my whole life, so I’m well-acquainted with the joys and difficulties of caring for animals. Having worked with a variety of temperaments—from playful and outgoing to more reserved and cautious—I feel equipped for the job. I look forward to looking after your fluffy loved one 🐶🐈⬛ I primarily work from home, so pet care fits seamlessly into my everyday schedule. As someone who has had pets throughout my life, I appreciate the importance of checking in on them throughout the day and attending to their needs. I live in a quiet, three-bedroom apartment, which provides ample space for sitting and boarding—my boyfriend, who also has significant experience with cats, lives with me and works from home.
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.
“Becky is amazing! You can tell immediately she is an “animal person” by her energy, and I knew our girls would be in fantastic hands. I was extra nervous since one of our kitties has anxiety and is on medication - it’s a lot to ask of someone else to care for her - but Becky was completely unfazed and didn’t hesitate for a minute. I was totally reassured every minute we were gone and was actually able to enjoy my vacation knowing Becky had everything handled. Thank you, Becky!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter than Kathryn! Lucy and Pixie adored her right from the start. She’s thoughtful, communicative, and pays attention to every little detail. Receiving frequent photo updates gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely be using her services again and recommend her 100%!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I’m an animal lover who understands that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to following your pet’s routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or extra cuddles. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy and in good hands. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently part time working! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because animals are a big part of my life. I make time each day for feeding, playtime, walks, attention, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. Since I have two cats of my own, I understand the importance of keeping a consistent routine and providing companionship, even when owners are away. I’m able to incorporate pet care into my schedule by dedicating time for visits, walks, check-ins, and giving each pet the attention they need. I enjoy spending time with animals and love being able to provide reliable, loving care for pets and peace of mind for their owners. I care for pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while respecting their normal routines. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow their instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, playtime, walks, and any special needs their pet may have. I understand that pets feel most comfortable when their routines stay consistent, so I do my best to make the experience as stress-free as possible. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, calm space where they can feel comfortable and receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. Whether at my home or a client’s, I treat every pet like they are my own and make sure they feel safe and loved.
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my whole life. Friends, family, and peers trust me to take care of their pets while they’re away. I made sure that they returned home better than ever like they went on a vacation too! I have experience with high-energy pups to senior dogs and can adapt to their personality and pace. I enjoy caring for animals from walking, playing, administering medication, grooming, and providing a calm space. What find most important is being patient and attentive to what your pet specifically needs. My top priority is always keeping pets happy and healthy. I’m currently on a break from school and not working on anything else. My dog, cat, and turtle keep me company in the house. I enjoy daily walks, visiting the park, and sunset outings. I also like volunteering when I have the time. Rain or shine I’m available to go on walks, have playtime, visit parks, or give cozy cuddles. I’d be happy to take dogs out to walk wherever they’re most comfortable. I can also assist with grooming, clean up, take in mail, water plants, or any other tasks. I’m currently not taking pets into my home but I am willing to travel.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 6 years and have lots of experience with smaller breeds, especially female dogs. I’m patient, loving, and comfortable with all different personalities, from shy and nervous pups to more energetic or aggressive dogs. I make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and gets plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and love while they’re with me. I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and pet care throughout the week. For boarding and overnight stays, I’m available Thursday through Sunday and can give your pet lots of attention and care while they’re with me I live in a loving family home in the suburbs of Yonkers with my parents and brother, so there’s usually someone around to give your pet some extra love and attention. We have a fenced-in yard with plenty of room to play, and I can easily crate your dog if needed. There are also several nice parks and walking areas nearby, so they’ll have plenty of opportunities to get outside and explore. I keep treats and pet essentials on hand, and we’re close to veterinary care if anything unexpected ever comes up. My miniature Dachshund is very friendly with other animals, especially cats, and I always do my best to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and at home
“Sarah is the best! She’s taken care of our elderly cat several times now and is so kind and reliable. She takes care of his medications and he’s always in great shape when we get back. Highly recommended!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Rye
Euree made us feel so comfortable leaving our cat for a long trip away. She was super consistent, checked in regularly, and sent great pics and updates every time she dropped in! We are so appreciative and will definitely continue to book with her for future trips :)
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!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Rye is $32 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $44 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 3,457 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Rye. 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 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.

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.
