“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!!”

“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: I am a just starting at Pace Law and missing my animals deeply. I have made a summer job the past few years dog sitting. I have a wide variety of experience, from caring for three 60lbs+ lap dogs for a week to three cats I would barely see. I love every animal like it is my own (smothered in love) and I make sure to take lots of pictures (I can’t help it!). I am starting my law school journey and I am looking to schedule in some animal time. I am completely free after 4 most days for walks or dinner time and have open weekends. I have lots of experience with animals of many different needs and can easily adapt to instruction. I will be sure to love your baby and provide care above and beyond.

About: Canine caretaker and walker with over a decade of experience caring for dogs, large dogs, small dogs, puppies, elderly dogs, and special-needs dogs. I'm reliable, punctual, mature, and dogs respond well to me - I was given the title “dog whisperer” by a long-term client. I don’t just walk or feed dogs; I genuinely love interacting with them and making sure they have a great experience each time we meet. As a result, their trust in me grows quickly, which benefits both of us. I have experience giving medication, and have even administered subcutaneous fluids on a regular basis for one special needs dog. I am not someone who walks multiple dogs at once. I prefer to focus entirely on your pet while I am doing a visit. Obviously, if you have 2 or 3 dogs that is fine. I just want to underscore that I am not like some of the dog walkers you see in the city with 10 dogs on leashes at once. I live in Harrison, New York, and I am available within a 10 mile radius. I can do a free meet and greet with your pet before booking. What a value most is my ability to give full attention to the pets I contract to care for. This includes plenty of outdoor exercise as well as playtime inside. I have a small side yard and live near two parks. This is a good area for walking dogs. Quiet streets, trees and parks nearby.

About: I have always had a soft spot for all animals. Growing up with a dog, I’ve always wanted one by my side and I can’t wait to help you all out and give your dog love and care! I dog sit a lot, for neighbors and friends of friends, and have plenty of experience with animals of all ages. I am currently a first year doctor of physical therapy student, so my life currently operates around school. That being said, I always have time for a mental break, or any stress relieveing tactic, so I try my hardest to make time for those things as well! I believe a pet fits into yhT. I follow any and all precautions the homeowner wants me to. It is your home and you know the safest way to do things. I would never make you or your pet feel uncomfortable, or scared, and I hope I can be an outlet of trust and love!

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly enjoy providing a safe, structured, and loving environment while you're away. I offer in-home boarding, daycare, and training. I have two dogs of my own, including my sport dog, with whom I've earned a PSA PDC. Training & handling dogs isn't just my passion, it's my lifestyle. I'm comfortable working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Whether your dog needs an active day of play, a calm place to relax, or help reinforcing good manners, I'm happy to meet their individual needs. With my background in dog training and handling, safety is always my highest priority, creating a structured environment where every dog can feel confident and secure. I know how important it is to stay connected while you're away, so you'll receive frequent updates, photos, and videos throughout your dog's stay. Whether your dog is staying for daycare, overnight boarding, or training, you can feel confident knowing they'll receive plenty of attention, exercise, enrichment, and affection in a caring home environment. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! My schedule is flexible, working mostly from home, which allows me to also provide pick-ups and drop-offs. I have 3 Ruffland crates in my car to ensure your pet is safe during travel. I have a fenced in yard in my home. All dogs are kept safe in Ruffland Kennels inside the house until their scheduled / designated potty and playtime. I also take daily outings

About: Hi! I’m Kelly, a lifelong animal lover, professional treat-giver, and former dog mom to my sweet girl, Princess, for 13.5 amazing years. From daily walks to medication routines, I’ve handled it all with love and care. Whether your fur baby needs a snuggle buddy, a midday walk, or someone to keep an eye on them while you’re away, I’ve got you covered! I live in a pet-friendly community with plenty of green space and have my own vehicle, so I’m reliable and flexible when it comes to pick-ups, drop-offs, or emergency needs. I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet, and I treat every animal like my own. Let’s connect! I’d love to meet your pup and become their new favorite human! Pet care fits into my routine pretty seamlessly. Honestly, hanging out with animals is one of the best parts of my week! I have a flexible schedule, my own car, and I live in a pet-friendly community with lots of green space, so walks and visits are easy to work into my day. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a walk around the block, or a weekend stay, I make the time because I truly love being around animals. After 13.5 years with my own dog, it just feels natural to keep giving that kind of love and care to other pets. I live in a pet-friendly community with lots of green space, so walks and visits are easy to work into my day. I'm also more than happy to pet sit in your own home if that's what you prefer.

About: I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with all of the patience and love to give both humans and animals. I have much more of a flexible schedule in the summer months so I can provide more services, including drop-in visits and walks. I I have had pets, both dogs and cats, my whole life and will treat your furry friend as I would my own. I understand that it is difficult to trust another person to take care of your pet and I can only assure you that I will keep your fur baby safe and sound while having fun at the same time. I promise to give your pet whatever it needs to be the happy and loved animal that I am sure you already make it. I can be available for walks and drop-ins from June to the end of August on most weekday mornings and afternoons, as well as weekends with some advanced notice.

About: Your fur baby deserves more than just a pet sitter — they deserve a loving, safe, and comfortable home where they’re treated like family! 🐾❤️Animals have always held a special place in my heart! Throughout my life, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for many dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs and pets with special needs. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family member. I offer a warm, welcoming home with private yard space where your pup can enjoy fresh air, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m big on keeping dogs happy, active, and comfortable, with morning, afternoon, and evening walks, lots of love, cuddles, and individualized care. I can also provide baths, feeding, and help maintain your pet’s regular routine so they feel right at home! 🐾 My Availability: this can change I have a very flexible job * Monday–Friday: 4 PM until the end of the day * Saturday & Sunday: Available all day! I know leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, which is why communication, safety, and trust are so important to me. I’m happy to send pictures and updates so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your baby is in loving hands.

I work Monday/Tuesday/Friday 9am-6pm Wednesday/thursday 7am-4pm and some saturdays. If you tell me in advance I can switch my schedule around to help you out ( my job is pretty flexible) Got a pretty big place , I just let them be dogs and hang out .

Again if you have a different schedule or instructions I can deff accommodate. When in YOUR home I will follow all info provided

We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Leigh! She was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. She was consistently punctual, made sure Cocoa and Kiwi were well-fed and had clean litter boxes, and went above and beyond to ensure they were happy and comfortable while we were away. We especially appreciated her attentiveness and initiative in noticing and cleaning some discharge from Kiwi’s eyes. She also took great care to make sure our apartment was comfortable for both cats. We came home to two very happy kitties! We will absolutely book Leigh again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional cat sitter!

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.

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 of Pet Sitting in Rye on Rover is $33 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $48 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 26,526 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Rye. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 .

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 , 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:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
