“Joe is the an excellent pet sitter. He helped us with a last minute booking and even made himself available for a meet and greet that same afternoon! He is very friendly and his communication skills are spot on. He cares very much for animals as is evidenced by his love for his own dear pup. He took wonderful care of our two frenchies, one being an old guy with mobility issues the other being an energetic 2 year old. I would not hesitate to highly recommend nor engage him in the future.”

“Krista was our very first Rover for our sweet pandemic dog Bella and we couldn’t be more happy with her drop in visits while we were at work this week. She was very responsive and prompt setting up the meet and greet, did two drop in visits, followed all of our care instructions, and left detailed rover cards afterwards. Bella trusted Krista instantly and her care expertise was very evident. We look forward to using her again!”

“Alina was so sweet with our dog Bennie! She did everything we asked for plus some good cuddles and we really appreciated the photo updates. We will definitely be using her again.”

“Xena was so happy today and another successful day of having company and NOT getting into things that aren't hers. :) Thanks so much for the short notice visit! Xena and I certainly appreciated you making some fast changes to check in on her. How caring!”


About: I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and overnight house sitting for cats or dogs, and I’m happy to provide daily exercise, playtime, feeding, and medication support as needed. Whether your pet loves long walks, quiet companionship, or consistent routines, I tailor my care to fit their needs and personality. I grew up with mid-size dogs and frequently watched smaller dogs for family friends in Pittsburgh. After moving upstate, I became a devoted cat dad to my black cat, Lola, for four years. Since then, I’ve cared for cats of all ages, including seniors with specific feeding and medication schedules. I'm attentive and responsive to every animal’s unique rhythm. I currently work remotely as a freelancer, which gives me the flexibility to drop in or house-sit for quality time with your pets during the day. I enjoy staying active and love being outdoors—so your dog will always get a good walk (and a happy walking buddy!). For overnight stays, I treat every home and pet with the respect and care I’d want for my own. I pride myself on being responsible, respectful, and kind—treating every home and animal as if my own. As a freelancer who works remotely, I have a flexible schedule that lets me give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m also available for house sitting and overnights provided there's stable wifi. I am a trustworthy house sitter/ walker who priotizes clear communication on expectations and house standards. I do not offer pet care from my own home.

“Sofia and her husband Arsen did a wonderful job looking after my 5 cats. One of them is a very high maintenance rescued Himalayan. His coat looked better than it did when I left and his eyes were well cleaned. The other four were happy and well fed.”

About: I have always had a special connection with dogs. I grew up with dogs and treated them like part of the family. I have been primarily working as a pet nanny for 5 years for someone who traveled to Europe on a monthly basis. They are staying in Europe indefinitely so I am looking to add some new clients. I can offer your dogs fun playtime and a sense of stability by caring for them in their own environment. I am also available for walks and drop in visits. I send pictures and updates daily. Your best friend will be spoiled and pampered with me. I have a very flexible schedule with plenty of availability as this is my main job. I can also do long term sitting up to 6 weeks if necessary. I am responsible and professional and respectful in your home. Besides caring for your pets, I am happy to pick up mail and water plants.
About: I've cared for many cats and dogs, from pit bulls to terriers to English bulldogs. I have experience with puppy training, senior dog care, and oral medication administration. I'm a patient and compassionate pet owner, and I promise to treat your fur babies with the same love and care I would my own. I'm also a graduate music student in case your pet might want to be serenaded by a french horn :) I'm a musician and graduate student at Bard. My schedule changes quite a bit, but I always have a good idea of what my schedule will look well in advance. In addition, I am generally free most mornings, and can often be flexible. I'm very happy to provide your dog(s) with walks, food, brushing, bathing, and medication. I love to play fetch with dogs, go on walks or hikes, visit dog parks, cuddle, practice tricks, or any other enriching activity. With cats, I love to cuddle, play, and practice or try new tricks with treats.
“Being new to the area I was concerned about finding a sitter for my 2 senior cats. Alexa was wonderful and a pleasure to work with. Updates daily. Very kind! She is now my go to person for pet care.”

“My cats love to see Isabella, especially Squeaker. He especially enjoys the treats, pets, playtime, and brushing. He would probably let Isabella take him home with her if she wanted, (he's such a Romeo!). Ariel enjoys maintaining her Princess status with Arabella, who brings her meals to her on a tray! I enjoy the fantastic photos Isabella takes every day even the funny ones of Ariel being grumpy!”
“Victoria was incredibly reliable, caring, and clearly experienced with dogs. Our dog was always excited to see her, and we felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands.”

“Shelby came through to help us with our dogs last minute and did an excellent job. The dogs got better walks with her than they're used to! So sweet and communicative and prompt. I will definitely be using her services again!”

“Savannah was so amazing with our cat Tami She is truly a special cat lover and caretaker We came home to a calm and happy kitty! We enthusiastically recommend her!!!”

“Andrea was super thorough with instructions and took great care of Daisy. There was also clear communication when she was visiting and when she was leaving. Highly recommend!”


“We were very pleased with Rose's care for Nina. She was diligent in providing information and pics on Nina. We will definitely use her services again and will recommend to others. Thank you.”
About: I grew up with multiple dogs and cats in my house. As the youngest of the family I was the defecto caregiver. As an adult I have been lucky to get to live with more animals but also watch and care for friends' pets. I currently work part time in post production so I have a pretty loose scheduling of my week to week activity. I also like to start my day pretty early so getting out and seeing pets is a great use of my downtime. I like to make sure that pets that get visits feel like they aren't all alone. I know when I travel I want my cat to feel like they aren't deserted. I personally like to make sure to have spare treats with me for any pet I get to look after but also ensure that the time spent in the home with the pet is spent as active as that pet wants to be. That can range from full on playtime to quietly sitting with them on the couch.
About: I've always loved animals and after years of convincing my parents, I got my first dog 11 years ago. He's a wonderful and healthy Pomeranian boy named Saige. Since he was my first pet I initially enrolled him in some classes to be trained where I'd of course accompany him and once the methods of training made sense, I was able to continue the training myself. I even learned to groom him after multiple negative groomer experiences which I'm sure a lot of pet owners can relate to. I actually really enjoy bathing, combing and cutting his hair to a point where I considered working as a pet groomer. I have experience caring for sick pets and providing medication as my dog has had two surgeries for the same genetic condition. I didn't have any significant interactions with cats until a year ago when I saw a stray in my backyard and decided to feed her. I thought she was a boy and named her Levi; little did I know Levi was pregnant and gave birth a couple weeks later to two kittens, Lila and Maya, who I absolutely adore and have adopted since. I knew I loved dogs but I didn't know how much I'd begin to adore cats. Their athleticism, wittiness, unending purrs, intelligence and comforting affection has fulfilled me in many ways. A woman who helped me spay the cats asked me to sit her senior cat named Tiger while she was away multiple times and I enjoyed it very much. From that experience I realized this is something I'd really enjoy doing more so I signed up for Rover. After signing up, I began walking a Great Pyrenees named Zack. I was his walker for over a year before I moved upstate. I loved walking Zack and learnt a lot about dog walking by walking such a big boy. He liked 2 hour walks in the morning and 1 hour walks in the evening so I’m used to long walks if your pet requires! I've had parakeets from the age of 7-16 so know how to provide basic care like food, water, and cage cleaning. I've also been vegan for 10 years now because of my love for all animals. I hope you can intrust me to help care for your pet and spend some great moments with them. I currently work over the weekends, including some Fridays. I'd be available on weekdays to petsit and/or provide walks for your pet! If you have any special request for Fridays you can contact me and I can let you know if I'd be available. I can provide your pet company, playtime, walks, of course meals, necessary medication and even some grooming like baths, ear cleaning, dental cleaning and am open to whatever other specifications you may have for what your pet needs.

Lilly took excellent care of our two cats for several days! I really appreciated her updates and photos, and felt completely comfortable with leaving my pets in her care. I came home to two happy and healthy cats. Will definitely book with Lilly again, thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Saugerties on Rover is $25.61 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 340 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Saugerties. 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 Saugerties. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
