“Amandine has a great sense for animals and their behavior. She was very patient with my stand-offish kitty and with my approach to introducing new folks to my cat. A true Gem! Highly Recommend!”
“Alyssa found out about our cat’s unexpected medical issue while we were traveling and in sleep in a different time zone. Alyssa and Michael used their best judgement to take our cat to the ER, made sure his situation was stable, documented everything, and helped cleaning the mess our cat made in the apartment due to his sickness. They truly treat your pets like their own fur babies and will go above and beyond when it is needed. I recommend them and will book with them again for our cat.”
“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!”
“So grateful for Leigh. She took excellent care of my senior cat for over a week. Mid-trip, my cat started refusing his medicine. Leigh was confident and able to administer his medication regardless (via oral pill, something I myself I have never had success doing - I usually get him to lick it off a spoon covered in churu). She even stayed past her contracted time to make sure that he would receive his medication. Leigh truly cares for cats. She had a very comforting effect on my Pablo, I could see from photos he looked content and relaxed. Thank you, Leigh!!”
“Jennifer is such an excellent pet sitter. Super reliable and my cat-man Jeff always looks so well cared for when I get back from work trips. Thank you Jennifer, once again :).”
“We hired Euree to care for our two cats over the holiday season, and she did a fantastic job. Not only did she handle the essentials like food and litter, but she also went above and beyond by cleaning up after our cats when they had some anxiety-related stomach issues. Most importantly, our cats truly enjoyed her company. The daily updates she provided gave us total peace of mind, allowing us to relax and enjoy our trip. Thank you, Euree!”
“My kitties were happy and well-cared for during our vacation. I loved seeing their pictures and when we arrived home they weren't starved for attention. That is a sign of a great kitty caretaker!”
“Ruth is the best with our senior boy. He can be a bit grumpy and she has won him over. We are so grateful to have our kitty in such trusty hands while we travel. Ruth always communicates and gives great updates- she even handled his vomit/ hairball mess!”
“Cristin was great! I needed a cat sitter while I was away at a work conference. She sent pictures with every visit and based on the pictures it was clear that my cat was super comfortable around her. Will definitely be reaching out to Cristin in the future.”
About: Hi, I'm Sarah! For the past 10+ years I've cared for animals of all shapes and sizes — from horses and exotics to the cats and dogs I grew up with. I currently share my home with my two cats, Myska and Oreo. I'm good at reading animal body language, and I'm patient with pets who need time to warm up — shy cats and nervous pups are my specialty. During every visit or walk, I send plenty of photo updates so you always know exactly how your pet is doing. I work part-time, so I'm reliably available weekdays 11am–3pm for dog walks and drop-in visits. I'd love to meet your pet — send me a message and let's set up a Meet & Greet! I work part-time and keep my schedule open for pet care weekdays Monday–Friday, 11am–3pm — perfect for midday walks and check-ins. I can do up to 4 walks per day. I have 10+ years working around horses and dogs, so I'm very good at reading body language and spotting when an animal is uncomfortable. I'm patient with pets who need time to get used to a new person — we go at their pace, not mine.
“This was my first time using Rover, and the experience was everything I hoped for. Rachael was great - both dependable and responsible. My one cat requires daily medication before feeding which she handled with aplomb. My other cat is very shy, but she was able to get her to warm up at least a little, which is an achievement. I loved getting the daily messages from Rachael and the pictures she took of the two cats - it set my mind at ease about how my cats were doing while I was away. Highly recommend both Rover and Rachael.”
“Jalyne is responsive and very kind! My cat took to her immediately. She goes above and beyond to pay attention to detail and follow any directions requested. I really appreciate that about her. Will be using her again. Thanks Jalyne!”
“Danielle was super great watching our kitten. She was super good with him even though he is sometimes shy he warmed up to her immediately. She was prompt with updates and responded quickly. Will definitely be using her again:)”
About: Love dogs all kind. First I pet seat my friend’s dogs when they were away. Then I got my own dog. Alaska is a 34 lbs pomsky. She is very playful and would like a company. I can take your dog to a dog park or the dog beach. Both of those amenities are next to my house. Moreover I have small fenced yard for playing with bunch of balls.I work from home , so have a lot free time to pet sit fur babies and take them for plenty of walks. If you are away for a short trip, book your pet a bed and breakfast inn in my house. I will take care of your furry friend either at my house or yours. Currently work from home. Very flexible. However prefer drop offs and pick ups in mornings. If pick up after 3 pm addition charge may apply I have fenced yard where. I can let dogs out for quick pee and play if needed. However I take them on walks at least 2 times a day. If good weather, I may take them to the dog park or rye beach
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember helping friends and family, working at boarding facilities, and fostering 21+ dogs. I'm especially experienced with basic obedience training for puppies and young dogs, and I'm comfortable with friendly dogs of all breeds and sizes. I also have some experience with basic grooming. Crates in various sizes are available, and we also have a Dog Pacer treadmill for extra exercise when needed. Interested in puppy or young dog training? Shoot me a text - I offer it independently (off rover). Let’s set your pup up for success.🐾 Currently I'm working as a groomer part-time in Rye, NY, on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays throughout the day. *Rye Area: I am available for dog walking and drop-in visit's around the afternoon. I am often available on weekends with a few days notice. (Please just reach out to discuss arrangements.) When caring for pups in my home I prioritize supervision, comfort, and positive interactions so every pup can feel at home. I have cameras to monitor the pups if I need to step out briefly. For their own safety while I'm away, I intend to crate the pups. QUESTION to provide me (For pups who aren't crate trained) Crate Training: Is pet crate trained? (If pup isn’t crate trained please inform me) Home Behavior: Is your pup comfortable being left out of their crate when alone without damaging furniture, belongings, or peeing? Please let me know so we can determine if my home is the right fit for your pup.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Rye
Leigh saved the day for us when we needed someone to drop in on extremely short notice to check on one of our cats. Not only did she give us complete peace of mind, but she also went above and beyond by cleaning up some unexpected furball messes around the house. We are so grateful for her prompt help, reliability, and genuine care for our felines. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and dependable sitter!
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!
Ruth has been a trusted carer for my pet rabbit Brownie! We felt at ease when traveling and knowing Ruth will take good care of her. She is very communicative, attention to detail, and always goes the extra mile to make sure Brownie is comfortable and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!
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 for Cat Sitting in Rye on Rover is $32.19 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 12,126 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 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 Rye. On Rover:

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.
