“Grettel was fantastic with our shy kitties. She slowly introduced herself to them and was eventually able to gain their trust. We loved getting all the updates from her and pics of them while we were away. She’s amazing and we’d highly recommend her to other pet parents!”
“TY Jen! My three cats were a handful (e.g. knocking over a vase, pulling things off of a shelf, digging dirt out of a plant, throwing up)! Jen fixed everything up and took wonderful care of them. They are all super shy, but warmed right up to her. Jen gave wonderful detailed feedback for each visit and was super quick to respond whenever we chatted. She played with them and pet them after dealing with food, cat boxes, and water. I felt very much at ease with her caring for them and I will definitely ask if she would watch them again in the future. Hopefully, they'll be more well behaved. I highly recommend her!”
“Lexi was fabulous, Walter and Bageera were both very well taken care of and we were kept up to date the whole time. We missed our kids (pets) very much while we were gone but very confident that we left them in good hands with Lexi. NO WORRIES 😉 👍🏼”
“Jamie is very detail oriented and listens to instructions very well. You can tell they love animals so much and they took such great care of our pets. They also checked in with us often and communicated well. We would definitely recommend Jamie and would 10/10 book again :-)”
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.
“Elizabeth is a perfect communicator and made me feel my cat was in great hands the week I was away. I could tell from her reports that she really understood and appreciated my cat, and that they had a really nice time together. I give Elizabeth my highest recommendation, and will definitely be reaching back out to her when I'm next out of town!”
About: I’m not here to “just stop by.” I’m here to do it properly. I notice what’s off, what’s needed, and what keeps your pet settled — and I handle it without making it a production. You get thoughtful updates, a respected home, and a pet that feels like nothing’s been disrupted. Pet care fits in cleanly — not squeezed in. I keep my schedule intentional, so when I commit to a visit, your pet gets my full attention, not whatever time is left over. I’m consistent, on time, and mindful of routines — because that’s what actually keeps pets settled. I treat your home like it’s yours — and your pet like they’re paying attention (because they are). I follow instructions closely, keep things clean and orderly, and stay aware of your pet’s behavior and environment at all times. No shortcuts, no guesswork — just attentive, reliable care so everything feels exactly as it should when you return.
“Jules was excellent! Highly recommend her. She watched our Billie Boy (cat) for several weeks. Giving us updates on him, taking great care of him! He’s a shy guy but slowly started to warm up to her. She brought in our mail, packages and even cleaned the snow off our porch!! A+++”
“My dog immediately bonded to Rose as soon as she walked into the house. She has an incredible way with dogs, and a deep knowledge of their behavior and needs. She is a true dog lover! I feel grateful that we found her, as it is such a relief to know there is someone who can take great care of our canine family member when we cannot be around.”
About: My care for animals is rooted in my nature. I have spent 28 years loving and caring for dogs, cats, and livestock like sheep and goats. I currently volunteer at the Ulster County SPCA weekly doing dog and cat socialization. I bring genuine passion, care, and patience to each pet that is in my care. I am available for pet visits and walks from 6am to 11am and 8:30pm to 10:30pm during the week. My availability on the weekends is much more flexible. Let’s chat and come up with a plan. With over two decades of animal experience, I know that trust is earned, not assumed. I take time to read each pet’s cues, honor their boundaries, and follow your established routines. Your home environment stays calm and consistent, your dog’s walk stays safe and controlled, and your cat always has the space they need to feel secure.
“Kimberly was so sweet and attentive to my old super senior kitty who’s been having health issues. She has a sweet momma like energy and was able to successfully give him his meds which he can be difficult about taking. I felt so safe knowing he was under her thoughtful care. Thank you so much for watching over Luke while i was away!”
“Such a late request to have my pup be watched, but Monica was ready and willing!! He was well taken care of and the photos prove it. Happy he was able to get some frisbee time :)”
About: I grew up in a home that always had multiple animals. Whether it was cats, dogs, fish, snakes and plenty more I was always taking care of different animals. Now as I’ve grown older the love for animals has not stopped. Dogs are really the best companions and can understand you more than some humans. The love I have for animals is truly the same love I have for family members. I’ll always make sure they are being well taken care of, fed, running freely or on walks, playing and always loved! Your dog will be treated like my own! My work schedule varies quite a bit, I may need to go into work sometimes & in that case my mother is typically home anyway. Otherwise I am home I have a fenced in area for the doggies to run freely. I have a dog of my own so I know what a dog needs and the love and attention they deserve! They can sleep wherever they’re most comfortable with at my home.
“Kacey is amazing! She was so incredibly attentive to our 6 chickens while we were away. She sent us daily updates and ensured they were happy and healthy throughout our travels. The chicks were truly in great hands! Kacey also went out of her way to water our garden since it was so hot out, which we so appreciated. We can’t recommend her enough!”
“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.”
“We cannot recommend Angelica enough. She went above and beyond in every way and made us feel so confident that our three cats had the best care while we were away. Angelica is lovely, patient, thoughtful and knowledgeable. She kept our home clean, played with each of the cats, made sure they ate, cleaned the litter boxes and eliminated the stress that comes with traveling when you leave pets behind at home. We feel so lucky to have found her.”

Paige was such a joy to work with. I felt so comfortable and at ease while I was on vacation knowing that my kitties were in the best hands with Paige! She provided reliable check-in visits and sent me recaps and photos each time, which always included a note about how much she loves my kitties 🥰 I recommend Paige to anyone who wants to feel completely at ease that their furry loved one(s) will be in the best care while being pet-sat. Thank you so much, Paige!! ♥️🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 421 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Stone Ridge. 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 Stone Ridge. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
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.
