“We had a wonderful experience with our pet sitter Margaret! She took excellent care of my dog, Otto, and made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well-loved while I was traveling. I really appreciated the regular updates with pictures and great communication—it gave me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible, kind and caring pet sitter!”
“Jason was fantastic with my pups. He was aware of how to interact with them, seemed to enjoy walking them, feed them as directed and walked them as requested. I am very happy and pups seem to be also.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 15 years old! I have had many dogs myself but I also helped my friends care for their animal! I have a small dog myself and I know how important it is to provide a healthy and fun lifestyle for your furry friend! I am free most weekends and weekdays, 11am-3pm, 3pm-10 pm to walk your dog and drop in on your furry friend! I love going on nice walks especially with a furry baby to keep me company! I also love dropping in to make sure your dog is safe and well! I currently am not offering boarding. With dog walking, drop in visits and house sitting, I will make sure to be gentle and abide by how your dogs behaviors are! I would never push them more than what they can walk and I would spend time to get to know your furry friend and have your furry friend get to know me! If you ever need me to drop in on your pet just to make sure they are okay I would love to! I will play with them alot especially outside for fresh air and to go to the bathroom and make sure they are fed :) We will do a meet and greet before any official bookings are made to make sure your pet feels comfortable with me!
About: Hi- I have been a dog sitter from a young age for a family with 5 golden retrievers. Unfortunately, they have since passed on as time passes by. As an adult now in a new area I decided to check out this type of opportunity online. I am a complete animal lover and would treat your pet as my own. Showing it affection, attention, & provide with the care it needs while you are unavailable. I also have a mellow adult lab myself that I would be happy to bring for playdates as requested. Rates and availability are TBD as mentioned I am new to the site and do work full time during week. I am available mornings, evenings, & weekends! :) Look forward to seeing what opportunities are in my area. After getting laid off of my job after 13 years I have decided for now I'd rather be around animals & am happy to do so with open availability. Warm weather is coming & I would be happy to either hang out with your pet in your yard or take them for walks. Whatever suits your needs! I am an animal lover & will be excited to treat your pet as my own. I will also treat your home with complete care in your absence.
“Stephen is a phenomenal communicator, with humans and pups. He’s very friendly and professional, and is terrific at what he does! Look forward to having him sit for our brood again soon.”
“Kimmie is a lovely sitter! She was communicative, kind and caring for our girl Rue. She shared updates and checked in with us, which we love to see! We had the winter storm coming and she was even willing to stay and watch our girl, despite the not normal circumstances. We ultimately made other plans, and she was understanding, helpful and very caring. You’re in good hands with Kimmie!”
“5 stars!! Thank you Alina for taking care of our French Bulldog, Cooper. Alina provided lots of updates with photos and videos, was super flexible, and I could tell Cooper was having a great time - I think he has a new best friend. We are normally quite anxious about leaving Coops but we felt totally relaxed knowing he was in great hands. Not only this but Alina left the apartment immaculate which was lovely to return home to after travelling. We will certainly be asking Alina to look after Coopie again. Thank you!”
“Abbey was fantastic. It was clear how much she loved Booch and how happy he was with her. She gave me frequent updates with pictures and videos that were so appreciated. The house was left in great shape. We have had 4 other house sitters and none have even come close to Abbey! I’m grateful to have found her and now we can go away with much more peace of mind.”
“Phoebe was amazing! She did house sitting with Zora and even though Zora was afraid of her at first, she got her to warm up fast. She texts us almost every day with pictures and took Zora on local walks on trails. Happy to have her sit again!!”
“Maria H. provide safe and consistent care for our 12 year schnauzer mix in our home for a week. She stayed with our dog overnight and ensured she had a fun time while we were away. We returned to a happy, calm dog and a tidy home. Thank you Maria. We will hire you again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs almost my entire life. I’ve taking care of family and neighbors dogs and it’s the best part of my day! Im currently working part time and I have plenty of extra time to take care of someone dog(s) for them. I want to help others out and this is something I would really enjoy doing! I have a dog and I walk him on nice days in my neighborhood after work and I play with him out in my back yard with a few of his favorite toys so he gets exercise.
“Cotter was great with our two dogs! He helped us out in a crunch over the holiday weekend, was extremely responsive and provided a ton of updates. Our dogs were very comfortable with him, we will definitely be using him again in the future. Thank you Cotter!”
About: Hi there! My name is Kendra. I come with 12+ years of veterinary technician experience. I currently work as a CVT in a veterinary ICU. I am happy to provide care to pets who may need additional TLC, such as senior or special needs pets. Outside of work, I have two cats (Autumn & Creme Brulee) and two dogs. Violet is my mini doodle who I adopted after she was found to have a swallowing disorder, and Emmie Lou is my Australian Shepherd who loves to live her life on the wild side. We love going for walks, long hikes, and various training events like lure courses, agility and dock diving. Both of my girls have earned their CGC (Canine Good Citizens) among other ribbons and sport titles. Loving animals is my whole life and I can't wait to love your fur babies too! 💗 I am available to do drop-in visits (short walks, feeding, play time, medication administration, etc.), or longer walks/hikes for those that may need the extra exercise. I am also available for house sitting upon request. I schedule pet care on my days off from my full-time job. I can also provide house sitting upon request (availability will not routinely be posted for this so feel free to send me a message!). Unfortunately, due to renting I cannot provide pet care in my own home. I can do drop-in visits or longer term house sitting in your home, which I would prefer anyway as I feel pets are usually the most comfortable in their own homes. When walking any dogs outside of a fenced in yard, I will always implement the use of double leashes for added safety.
About: I have decades of experience around cats and dogs - in the home and with extended family pets, and then started pet care for others as a teen. Through my teens and 20s I consistently dog sat, did scheduled walks out of others’ homes, or cat play/feed visits. I’ve loved each and every pet: from Great Dane siblings to cats that rule the house and play it cool. I grew up with cats and have long term cared for a Vizsla dog beloved to me, as my own. I have experience with animals that do not get along with other animals, or take a while to get used to humans (I’ve always had an affinity for these guys and allowed them the space and time to grow comfortable with me). I live in Portland, OR but am from the Hudson Valley and back in the area to be closer to my father who is on hospice with a terminal illness. I am reactivating my Rover profile because I am working from my laptop some hours a week here and there (I choose the hours) and spending some time with my father each week. All of my days are flexible and I’d be open to arrangements based on need. An animal to hang with and care for would be really lovely at this time. My days are all flexible. I make my own hours at work and am only working 8-16 hours a week due to being on intermittent FMLA. Several days a week I would be out of the house for portions during the day to spend time with my father in Fishkill, NY. Based on directive and to minimally disrupt their routines and comforts. I adapt easily and I find I have a good energy for animals to adapt to being around me—not forcing anything and just letting them lead the way in terms of their comfort level.
“The second time Christine stayed with Suki, my kitty was totally comfortable with her. Watching the two of them upon my return home, I could see there was a real bond between them. Beyond ensuring a pet's physical needs are being met, its emotional well-being is the most important and most challenging thing a pet sitter needs to provide for. I am happy that I can be away from home knowing that Suki will be cared for and contented in her own space with someone she trusts and loves. Christine kept me well informed with updates and photos while I was away, too, which kept ME happy!”
“Courtney is great. She took great care of all of my pups and was incredibly communicative throughout the day. I would definitely recommend Courtney to anyone who wants to leave their dogs in good hands.”
About: I’ve been working with dogs for the past ten years, up to this date. Currently work at a boarding resort, and pet sit on the side. I can confidently administer any medications, including insulin. Very skilled in dog behavior. Willing to work with skittish/fearful/“difficult” dogs. Willing to bike alongside pups who need to run if interested. I currently work for a boarding and daycare facility; our lunch breaks are usually around 12-3. Looking to help walk pups in between then and again after 6:30pm if needed. I am great at following instructions, and safety is my biggest priority. I take my time gaining a dogs trust, and strive for maximum comfort in an already stressful situation.
“Angie did a great job watching our two dogs. She updated us often and sent lots of great photos. She was a great house guest and we look forward to having her watch our pups again.”
About: I've been lucky enough to have a dog in my life since I was 8 years old, and now I'm 20! My dog is 13 years old, and caring for her has taught me so much about patience and responsibility. She takes multiple medications, so I'm very comfortable with medication schedules and making sure pets receive the care they need on time. I've also looked after other pets for family and friends like my friend's 3 cats, Rocky, Pepper and Sage, during school breaks, and the cutest dog in the world, Abby. These experiences helped me become confident caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs!! I truly love spending time with animals, cuddling, playing, keeping them company, or just making sure they stay active and happy. I'm an outdoorsy person who enjoys hiking and walking, so I'd be happy to take your dog on walks and adventures if needed. I'm reliable, attentive, and comfortable with feeding and following special instructions to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for! I’m planning to have an internship, so I’ll be working full days but will be able to periodically check in on your animals!! I love to play and spend time with them, and you can trust they’re in great hands! My puppy is 13 years old, and is on many medications, has specific feeding times and diet, but she still loves to play and go on walks! I’m super organized and take very good care of her.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Stormville is $75
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Stormville
Stephen was such a pleasure! He took wonderful care of my 2 dogs walking them several times a day and staying with them overnight . He was so professional and at the same time loving and concerned for the happiness, security and care of my pups. He kept in constant contact with me with texts and pictures to make sure I knew how the pups were. I would recommend him completely!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Stormville is $94 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $79 and $117 per night. On Rover, 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 November 2026, there are 1,214 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Stormville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Stormville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Stormville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Stormville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Stormville. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
