“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!”
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.
“Jennifer was amazing. She took extra steps to make Basher and Sneezy feel comfortable. She was also very mindful of the house ensuring packages outside where protected (greatly appreciated!!!) thanks Jennifer. You rock.”
“Christie is absolutely wonderful! She always goes above and beyond during her check-ins and walks, making sure my dog is happy and well cared for. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my pup is in such loving and reliable hands when we’re at work. Love the picture updates!”
“Tara really came through at the last minute & is so wonderful with my grumpy boy Thor. She is so kind & great to him & very responsive with me. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“To say Leigh went above and beyond would be an understatement. She was excellent with my cat. Leigh is patient, accommodating, and was able to interact with my shy cat almost immediately. She pointed out some potential issues and gave suggestions on what to do. She was great, and I very highly recommend her!”
“Alyssa saved the day when our flight was cancelled and we were away an extra night! She’s such a gem and so easy to work with!! We can home to a very happy bunny who was clearly well taken care of.”
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.
“Rachael was prompt in responding, helpful during the booking process, reliable and communicative during visits! Really appreciate the time and effort, will definitely be reaching out again for future cat sitting needs!”
“Ruth is absolutely fantastic! Ruth was incredibly patient and gentle with our adorable yet anxious 13-year-old kitty. Her communication with us was prompt and excellent, even though we were in different time zones. Initially, we were uncertain about working with a cat sitter, but we are thrilled that we found Ruth and would ask her to cat sit again without any hesitation.”
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
“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.”
“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:)”
“Maggie is so professional and helpful. We always feel at ease traveling knowing that she is a great caretaker of our kitty and also helps with packages and keeps an eye out”
“Huidan, is very professional. She communicatea well, came on time and try to comfort my dog as much as she could given it was first time my dog met her. She fed him refreshed his water and played. I would use her again. Thank you for your work!”
“We’re so grateful to Claudia for taking such great care of Luna and Beanie while we were away! She did an amazing job not only spending time with them but also keeping everything clean and tidy. One of the cats had an accident outside the litter box, which I was a bit worried about, but Claudia took care of it right away and reassured us that everything was fine. It really gave us peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Thank you, Claudia, for treating our cats and our home with such care!”
About: Dogs have been my world for 15 years. I've worked in daycares, training facilities, grooming, shelters, and now I focus on providing reliable walks and personalized care. I offer neighborhood walks during the week, and on weekends I also offer 90 to 120 minute off-leash adventure hikes for the weekend warrior dogs that love to explore and need to burn off some energy! Every visit includes photos, updates, gps and plenty of attention! Dogs are what i do! And because this is what I do professionally, I’m able to provide consistent scheduling and care, building relationships with your pup! Almost any given day you can find me working with dogs of all sizes and energy levels! I primarily provide care through structured outdoor hikes rather than in-home services. When working in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a calm, controlled environment.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Rye is $25
Pet 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!
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:)
She was fantastic- kind, organized, and communicative from start to finish. What really stood out was how comfortable my anxious dog was with her; that’s not easy to earn, and she clearly has a gift for putting nervous pups at ease. She sent regular updates and photos, and it was obvious she genuinely cared about my dog’s wellbeing throughout the walk. Couldn’t recommend her more. She’s a model dog walker and we’ll definitely be booking with her again.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Rye on Rover is $33.3 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 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 September 2026, there are 26,603 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Rye. 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 Rye 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 Rye. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
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.
