“Megen is a kind animal lover who takes great care of our senior dog. She is attentive to his needs and provides little extras like straightening his bed to make him more comfortable, allowing him extra time outside, giving him approved treats from the fridge, and making sure he is happy with extra pats before bed. I am so happy that I found Megen to care for Chance!”

About: Hi there.. I have always owned a dog in my life. I have worked at an animal shelter for 2 1/2 years taking care of the dogs. I have been around most breeds and personality types. I am calm and patient around dogs and know how to read their body language. But I also love to be goofy and playful with them when the environment is right. I believe every dog is an individual and what might work for one dog won’t always work for another. I have some dog training under my belt from working with other trainers and taking classes but I’m not certified yet. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out! I am currently working part time at an animal shelter so I have plenty of time to dedicate to working with your pups! I currently only offer dog walking and stop ins but will eventually start boarding. I currently don’t offer boarding but I will eventually! At a client’s home I’ll make to gather all the details from the owner to ensure an easy transition for both them and their animals. The last thing I want is an owner to worry while they’re away! I’ll treat your animals like they’re my own.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was a teenager, and pet sitting has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I have experience with scheduled feedings, walks, playtime, bathing, and providing plenty of companionship and emotional support to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I truly love animals and believe they’re part of the family, so I treat every pet with the same patience, kindness, and care I would want for my own. I’m a loving, trustworthy, honest, and responsible sitter who will treat your pet like family, making sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. I’m currently working part time and volunteer a few days a week, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby! I’m available all day Wednesdays as of now, but can be flexible depending on your needs. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities! I’m attentive, responsible, and caring, whether I’m taking your dog for a walk, checking in for some company and playtime, or making sure they’re comfortable at home. I’ll pay close attention to their needs, follow your instructions, and keep you updated so you can feel confident knowing your furry friend is in good hands.

About: I’ve been able to train basic skills for families dogs within a day (sit, twirl, lay down). Often times just as a fun activity with the kids. I am keen on following specific directions to help keep your pet within their healthy routine! I am a graduate student, meaning I have more flexibility than most other people. Without the typical restraints of a 9-5, but the eagerness of a student, I am able to provide a wider range of services and support to your family. Families have been trusting me for years with both their children and their pets. I’ve worked in public education and have my fingerprints within the NYS database and have been carefully cleared with a background check.

About: I grew up in a household always with a pet and sometimes two. Having mostly taken care of small/medium sizes dogs and some large. Ive pet sit before for different friends and family, taking care of a variety of breeds, all the way from Chihuahuas and Jack Russel Terriers to Huskies and Golden retrievers. Currently I have no pets permanently living with me since I moved away from home for college. But on occasion I pet sit for my parents or take their dog to doggy day care. Im a part time college student and I do all my schooling online, so i'm always home. I do work in the evenings for 4-6 hours but I live with my sister who is a web designer and is often home too. I currently live in a townhouse, which has plenty of room for your furry friend. I don't mind your doggo lounging on the furniture or sleeping on the bed with me. I can feed your pet based on whatever schedule you have them on. There's plenty of grassy area in the communal living area and a near by park to take your pup on daily walks. I also love to give photos and video updates of your pets stay with me.

About: Hello, my name is Amanda and I am the loving mother to a bichon named Mollie. For the last seven years I have volunteered a lot of my time at local shelters in addition to helping walk dogs. I’m a very caring and compassionate person, and I help care for all dogs as if they are my own. Associates of mine have referred to me as trustful and reliable in helping care for their beloved members of their families. Through furthering education and professional experience, I’ve been able to fine tune what dogs need consistent with their breed(s). In addition, I am experienced in delivering dog first aid plus CPR. I provide my own transportation and my hours are flexible. I look forward to hearing from you.

About: Hi, I’m Breyalyn! Professional bellyrub giver, treat dispenser (with permission, of course), and full-time dog lover. As a proud dog mom to my spoiled girl Suzie, I know that dogs aren’t “just pets”, they’re family. Whether your pup loves his zoomies, is a professional squirrel investigator, or a couch potato who wants to nap, I’m happy to match their vibe. We’ll go on exciting walks, play their favorite games, and make sure they get all the love and attention they deserve. When your dog is with me, you can expect: 🐾 Tail-wagging walks and adventures 🎾 Playtime until someone needs a nap (probably me) 💛 Endless love, cuddles, and attention 📸 Plenty of photo updates because I know you’re going to miss them 🏡 Care that’s personalized to your dog’s routine and personality My goal is simple: make your dog feel like they’re on their own little vacation while giving you total peace of mind. So if your pup is looking for a new human friend who will love them almost as much as you do, I’d love to meet you both. Just don’t be surprised if they drag you back to my door next time.. they tend to make themselves at home! 😊😂 I work from home, so I am home ALL day. I love to exercise and we have a fenced in yard for all of the playtime needed (a larger yard for a leashed walk). I’m always open to going for additional longer walks elsewhere Your pet’s safety is always going to be my priority. They will have a separate apartment area of the house (that I spend all of my time in). They will also have a fenced in yard. Food and water (treats if allowed) will be provided all day. My doggie will be kept separate unless otherwise agreed upon!

About: I have hands on experience providing attentive, compassionate care for pets with a variety of needs. I have administered insulin injections and other basic medications, and I always prioritize safety and gentle handling. Whether it’s feeding, walks, or drop-in visits, I make sure each pet receives reliable care, attention, and plenty of affection. I treat every animal as if they were my own, ensuring they feel comfortable, secure, and loved. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet for a nice walk or drop in visit! In fact, it’s something I look forward to. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to build trust not just with your pet, but with you as well—so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away.

About: I grew up on a dairy farm with all sorts of animals around. I have had many dogs, cats, parrots, chickens, rabbits, rats, and horses over the years. I have a degree in Equestrian Science and have taken care of animals my entire adult life. I have always been an avid hiker as well and love to take the pups on walks around the area. I currently own 3 dogs, a parrot, and 2 chickens and will give your animals the same love and attention that I give my own! I'm currently working part time and so have plenty of time to play with your fur babies. I am currently available for house sitting, drop in visits and dog walking. If your dogs get along with mine I might be able to do boarding as well. I have a dog door at my house with a fenced in yard along with 5 acres of fields to walk in. When coming to your home, I use my deep knowlege of dogs, cats, and other animals to keep your animals happy in their own home where your pets are MOST comfortable. They have the comfort of knowing they are safe in a place where they can learn to trust me and we can develop a bond so I can give your pets the same level of love and care as I would give my own pets.

About: With over 6years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I’m passionate about providing the best care for your furry friends. I specialize in dog walking and sitting, ensuring your pets are happy, healthy, and well-exercised. Whether it’s a daily walk or overnight care, I’m committed to creating a safe and enjoyable experience for your pets. Let me give your pets the love and attention they deserve while you're away! I’m currently on summer vacation from being a teachers assistant at an elementary school! While working to finish my teaching degree, I figured I would help others take care of their animals! I’m free most days and nights just need a days notice. My pup Charles is older now so he does not do too many activities anymore. But before that I loved taking him on long walks and playing with his toys. As for taking care of pets in your house, your house your rules! Flexible and willing to leave what’s best for each animal.

About: Hi. My name is Kiki and I love dogs!! I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I was a manager at a cage-free dog daycare for 5 years, where I handled everything from group play supervision to administering medications and managing daily care routines. I also volunteered for 3 years at Second Chance Dog Rescue, helping with socialization, walking, and basic training. In addition, I’ve provided trusted pet sitting services in Peekskill, NY for 5 years until the family relocated. I’m trained in pet CPR, comfortable administering all types of medications, and have dogs of my own—so I truly understand how important it is to find someone reliable and compassionate to care for your pets. I have a car, am highly dependable, and treat every animal as if they were my own. Although I work full-time and attend school, I have large daily time blocks available between commitments, which I dedicate to pet sitting, walking, and drop-in visits I care for every pet like my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while following their regular routine, my skills are administering medications, and giving personalized attention. Every pet has a specific personality so I try to respect that much like people.

About: I currently own an amazing certified Good Boy Austalian Cattle Dog and two snuggly cats. I have have always owned at least one pet, both cats and dogs since I was little. I have done a decent amount of pet sitting for neighbors and friends. I have even had to give oral meds to one dog I dog sat. If you have any questions, please ask! Dogs will always get at least a 15 minutes walk because my dog usually needs a longer one. I sometimes give my cats and dog breakfast and then usually give the dog a quick 15 walk in the morning before leaving for work at 7:30 am. I get back home around 3:00 pm and usually give my dog his actual long walk between 40 and 70 minutes depending on weather. I feed the animals and then have dinner and usually just relax and snuggle on the couch with at least one of the fur kids. I fit in other cleaning and what not in there but I always make it a point to walk my doggo and make sure they get snuggles since I am gone for a good portion of the day. I have room for a crate for a crate trained dog. I have a moderately sized backyard that is well fenced in. My dog is a counter surfer so we have baby gates for both the kitchen and the extra bedroom. The extra bedroom serves as the cat room so the cats have a dedicated space. Stuff can be adjusted if you have a cat not used to dogs, so they can have that entire room or vice versa our cats can go in there for a dog that is not cat friendly. We only live five minutes from Marbletown Animal Hospital of any emergencies arise needing urgent care if your vet is not available.

Angelique is simply amazing! She is responsive, attentive and super safe with my dog who is recovering from surgery! I am a very picky person, especially with who I allow to care for my dog and she is truly great! I feel comfortable knowing that she is coming to take care of her and that my dog is safe, in good hands and with someone who genuinely cares!

Angelique did drop-in visits for Zoey from Friday through Sunday, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She sent wonderful updates and photos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious that Zoey loved her and was comfortable with her right away. We are so thankful for the love and attention she gave our girl and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Wallkill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wallkill is $27 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $43 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 1,263 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wallkill. 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 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 Wallkill. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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.
