“Melony took care of my cat for two days. She went above and beyond what I asked of her. My cat is extremely friendly and loves people. She spent the whole time playing with him and giving him love. She even cleaned up the litter he kicked out of the box which I had told her she didn’t have to do. Melony was wonderful, kind and caring.”
About: I have petsit and watched over a multitude of animals my entire adolescence. From dogs to cats to even ferrets, I made sure they were loved and well cared for the whole time ❤️ I am fully available every day of week the during the daytime. On weekends I work part time, however, that will not interfere as I can make sure to care for your pets both before and after my shift! I prefer to keep the animal in the house that they reside in, as it is less stress than changing their entire environment. I will make sure to abide by any house rules and make sure your baby stays safe while you’re away!
“Where do I begin? Mary exceeded all of our expectations. She is extremely sweet, professional, courteous, genuine and responsible. We received txts with updates and photos at every visit to our fur baby. She without a doubt goes above and beyond. Typically, our Shelby takes a day or two to readjust upon our returning with the exception of this time. It was like we had never left! Shelby was so happy and relaxed. We can’t recommend Mary enough and she is definitely our go to from here on out!”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life. Much of my experience is with dogs and horses. I have taken care of all age ranges starting with puppies and foals to senior animals. I also have experience with cats, goats, pigs, and chickens having grown up in the country. I was an active 4H member and completed their Veterinary Science courses at Cornell, so I feel comfortable giving medications and any wound care your pet may require. I am a Library Director in the Hudson Valley. I set my own schedule so my hours to provide pet services are flexible. I can work with the client to provide what their pets need. I am a responsible professional who owns their own home. I will treat your pets and home like my own and understand the importance of having a reliable, responsible pet sitter.
“I was in California for 5 days, far away from my sweet cat. I did not worry about her at all though, because Jenna showed up on time, fed my kitty, and made sure she had water and a clean litter box. She sent me lots of photos and a video every day so I knew she was being well cared for. It was obvious from the photos that Emmie loved Jenna’s visits. When we arrived home, Emmie was calm and happy. I would definitely hire Jenna again to care for my cat when I am away.”
“Jenna has been taking care of my pups for the past month or so and I couldn’t be happier. I work in NYC, 3 days a week and am gone about 12 hours an each day. It’s so nice to have found someone I can rely on to show up and take good care of my Benji and Bailey! Thanks so much Jenna!”
“I can’t recommend Iliana enough! Her communication is impeccable, keeping me updated throughout the day with messages and adorable photos of my pups and chickens. It was such a relief to know my dogs were in good hands.”
About: Hi, I’m Amanda! I’m a certified animal lover who wants to help keep your fur babies happy when life keeps you busy. I’ve owned dogs my whole life, from tiny chihuahuas to large mastiffs, I’m well versed with all sizes and breeds. I currently have a 2yo Pomeranian who loves playing, learning tricks, and meeting new friends. I also have a 1yo tuxedo cat who loves cuddles and catnip. You can depend on me to take great care of your pets. I can take them on walks, engage in play, keep them company and/or fill their bellies for mealtime. Please just let me know your pets specific needs and preferences and I’ll make sure they are comfy and happy! I just relocated and have a lot of free time to care and play with your fur babies! From the work week to the weekend, I’m available to walk, watch, feed, play, or entertain I have a friendly, playful Pomeranian who loves dogs over people. He would be happy to keep your pup company and play the day away! But if your fur baby prefers their own space, I can easily separate using my baby gates.
“Thank you Mario for meeting with Buster. He absolutely loved you!!! He cannot wait to see you next week. Mario has a very calm demeanor and listened attentively to all of our instructions. We have already booked several dog visits with him.”
About: In the past six years, I have gained both knowledge and experience through pet-sitting not just my own pets, but for the pets of friends and family members! I am absolutely an animal lover, and I promise to treat your pets just like my own with play, love, and affection. My number one priority will always be to ensure the safety and well-being of animals, especially the ones within my care. I’m a college student home for summer break, so I am available every day of the week to care for pets! Whether you need someone to quickly check in on your pets while you’re at work, or if you need someone to care for them during a long trip, I will always be there! I can ensure that your pets will be in good hands, so you (and they!) can enjoy a great summer! 🐾 I have experience in handling animals through both regular and electric fences so they will always be ensured to have their outdoor time! Alongside that, I also have experience in crating dogs. I’m also a very active person, so I will always be down to run around and get your pet’s exercise in. But, if they’re more into chilling, I would also love to keep them company!
About: Through my life, I have been a pet parent for several dogs of different ages. Family, friends, and clients have trusted me with their pets since a young age. Dogs from all ages are welcome including those with dietary and medical needs. I’ve made the decision to leave the banking industry after several years to pursue happiness and focus on my passions. Having a flexible schedule allows me to give your pet the care it needs from potty breaks to overnight stays. I love going for walks and hikes and would love for your pet to attend. As a house sitter, I provide specialized care for each pet, ensuring their happiness and safety at all times. My experience includes administering medication as well, if needed.
“Willy loved Having Donna come to take care of him! He was well cared for and I appreciated the daily photos and communication . Meds administered with no issues . Really kind and trustworthy to come into my home daily. Will definitely request Donna for future pet sitting needs ! Thanks so much”
“Stephanie was fantastic! Kept in constant communication with pictures. Was punctual for all visits. Gave my senior dogs all his medications. Stephanie took very good care of my 2 dogs. Would highly recommend!”

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 Wappingers Falls 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.

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.
