“Dali was fantastic! She was incredibly responsive from start to finish and kept me updated throughout the stay with lots of photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Rudy had a great time hanging out with her and was well cared for. I could tell he was happy and comfortable, which means everything. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Dali again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter!”
“Colleen is an excellent sitter & great with animals. She made sure both our cats were well looked after & sent us lots of great pictures. I would highly recommend if you need a pet sitter.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was in school—neighbors and friends would often ask for my help and thank me with small tips, which I used to buy school supplies. Over the years, my love for animals grew, and I eventually adopted my own dog, whom I’ve been caring for for the past nine years. I offer flexible availability on weekends at any time of day, which can be especially helpful in case of last-minute needs or emergencies. I kindly ask that you notify me at least three days in advance for any pet-sitting requests. I prioritize caring for pets in the comfort of their own home, as familiar surroundings can help reduce stress. I also enjoy taking them for walks in their neighborhood to keep them active and happy. I would have flexibility on weekends at any time of the day for greater comfort or if an emergency arises. 2 days before let me know about day sitting. Thank you I would care for your pet in the comforts of their space, sometimes it is easier when they recognize the space and additionally take them out for walks in their neighborhood.
“Elisa did a great job. She was very respectful of our home and our pets. It is very evident that she cares about animals. We will absolutely use her anytime we are in need of a pet sitter. Thank you.”
“Lizette was a wonderful sitter during our recent week away. It’s been very reassuring to get her detailed updates and to know someone caring and responsible is checking in on the kitties and our home when we’re away. We’re so grateful for her time and highly recommend her.”
“Kristine was fantastic with my two cats! She was able to accommodate last minute requests and she sent daily updates on how they were doing. Highly recommend using her as a sitter!”
“Our dogs had an amazing time with Bella. She was thoughtful and conscientious of all of their needs and personalities. We were touched by the home made dog treats as well!”
“Jorge took excellent care of our cat while we were out of town, and was able to fit her into his schedule without much advance notice. He was very communicative and helpful (he even vacuumed up some litter!) and I knew our cat was in good hands while we were away.”
“MaryAnn was wonderful! She took great care of our older cat while we were on vacation and sent regular updates on how he was doing. We’d definitely recommend MaryAnn!”
“Lori updated me every day and provided photos of each visit. My cat is anxious and Lori was patient with her and made sure to feed her a treat on visits to make sure Mittens was coming out of her hiding spot. Thanks Lori!”
About: Hello! I’ve been in the pet care industry for 3 years professionally, and almost my whole life personally through friends and family. I’m an animal lover, and I’m ready to meet some new friends! I used to service dogs in East Midtown and have experience with many breeds and temperaments. I also own cats and have worked professionally as a cat sitter in Chelsea/Downtown. I recently moved to the area and can offer walks, sittings, and boarding. We can set up a free meet and greet to see how we can work together to help your companion thrive. I work 10am through 6pm Monday-Friday for walks, extra charge for anything outside of that time frame and weekends/holidays. Inquire about sittings/boardings. Safety is always my priority when it comes to any sort of service. I follow any given instructions and communicate with the parents if I have any questions/concerns. I’m also CPR certified.
“Maria took excellent care of our cat for a week, 2 visits a day. She was there like clockwork - and sent us photos, which we loved. I appreciated how communicative she was, especially with a snowstorm coming. Would 100 % use her again.”
“This was our first time getting a cat sitter at first we were nervous but once we read the positive reviews on Jennifer’s profile we contacted right away. Jennifer was amazing with our cat Alejandro. He’s still a kitten and she played with him as much as he wanted to play. She’s really good at reading his body language and giving him affection. She took really good care of him and put our minds at ease while on vacation. We will definitely use her again our cat just loves her.”
“Rachael made stops during my wedding weekend to check on our cat and she was simply amazing. She gave great updates making us feel confident that our cat was safe, healthy, and getting some good company during our very busy weekend. If you need a pet sitter in Rachael’s vicinity, she is the best candidate. We are so grateful!”
“Stephanie has been absolutely amazing looking after our two cats whilst we’ve have been away on vacation - she is so reliable, trustworthy and kind. She is also amazing at keeping us updated with her detailed reports and photos. The cats have loved having her come in every day! We will definitely have Stephanie come back and look after them when we next go on vacation. We would 100% recommend her!!”
About: I have three dogs of varying ages who I help care for daily. I also have pet sitting experience as well as shelter volunteering! I generally just love dogs and I understand that they are part of the family and require love and responsible care, especially when their people are away :) I am volunteering part time at a hospital, so I have plenty of availability on both week and weekends to care for pets and house sit! I can follow whatever preferences the home owner likes to make the pet sitting experience as smooth and comfortable as possible! I just want your babies to feel safe and loved!

I can’t say enough good things about Lizette. She has gone above and beyond to make my shy cats feel happy and relaxed, which was especially appreciated during this last 2-week long trip. Thanks so much for coaxing out the kitties and giving them such good care and attention.
Lori took great care of our cat Pablo while we were away for over a week. She followed all the instructions we left for her so well and even managed to give Pablo his liquid oral medication with no issues which is a challenge! We really appreciate Lori’s help and plan to definitely reach out to her again in the future.
Vicenzza showed up on time and was reliable, communicative, and caring throughout the visit. She took great care of Tucker, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. The whole experience was easy and stress-free. I would definitely book with her again.
She was amazing! She did everything exactly as requested, including changing the pee pads, refreshing Oreo’s water, cleaning up after him, giving him his lick mat, and spending time playing with him. She also kept everything clean and followed all of my instructions perfectly. I really appreciated the care and attention she gave Oreo, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. I would definitely book her again and highly recommend her!

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 August 2026, there are 26,869 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Tuckahoe. 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 Tuckahoe 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 Tuckahoe. On Rover:
- 88% 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.
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.
