“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.”
“Maryline’s great! She was very communicative and attentive to our cats needs. She came by for a meet-&-greet, followed the instructions we left, sent us lots of pictures of Clive and updates. We felt Clive was in good hands which means a lot when leaving our furr baby in someone else’s care. Highly recommend Maryline!”
“Really appreciated Kasey’s flexibility when I needed someone to drop in on my dog Amber. Amber warmed up to her immediately at the meet and greet! I felt very reassured knowing someone responsible and dog-savvy was checking in on her on the day I was called into the city unexpectedly for work. Would absolutely book Kasey again for any future drop ins!”
“Melony is incredibly patient and did a great job watching our senior Shiba, who is a rescue and hates new people. She was able to win him over (no small feat!) and dealt with his eccentricities in stride, and gave constant updates. We were able to travel with little stress knowing he was in great hands!”
About: Hi! I'm so glad you're here! I know how important it is to find someone you can completely trust with your pet and that's exactly the kind of care I strive to provide. Whether your pup needs a fun walk to burn off energy or they just want a friendly face while you're away, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for every step of the way. I treat every pet as if they were my own, following their routine closely so they stay comfortable and stress-free. I have five years of experience with both my own and family members' dogs, giving me hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and providing lots of love and attention. You can expect dependable communication, plenty of photo updates, and personalized care based on your pet's unique personality and needs. I know every animal is different, and I take the time to earn their trust while making sure you have complete peace of mind. I currently work part-time, giving me flexibility for dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! Your pet's safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I'll take the time to follow your care instructions carefully and make sure they feel comfortable during every visit. Whether we're out for a walk or spending time together at home, I'll provide a calm, caring, and dependable environment while treating your pet and your home with the utmost respect. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is in safe and caring hands. Here are the Services I offer and What to Expect: 30 Minute Dog Walks include a fun stroll around your neighborhood or a nearby trail to give your pup the exercise, fresh air, and mental stimulation they need during the day. 30 Minute Drop-Ins include potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and of course plenty of snuggles to keep your pet happy and comfortable while you’re away.

“Barbara was very kind and sweet to my Daisy. She even bought her a new toy and played with her and send pictures everyday. My house was clean and her litter box was clean she was very well taken care of and I recommend her highly!”
About: I’ve had animals my whole life and have always genuinely enjoyed caring for them and treating them as if they were my own. I am gentle, loving, trustworthy and dependable. I adapt quickly and comfortably to each pet’s individual needs and routine. I’m happy to provide walks, feedings, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I’ve also worked for the past six years caring for children and adults with autism and other intellectual and physical disabilities. My experience as a caregiver has taught me patience, attentiveness, responsibility, and, most importantly, how important it is to have someone you can truly trust caring for someone you love. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my #1 priority. I also want to build a relationship with them so they feel safe, comfortable, and just as loved while in my care as they do with their family. ❤️ I currently have open availability, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for & play with your pets! I’m available throughout the week and on weekends and can easily accommodate different schedules. I provide a safe, clean, comfortable and loving environment where your pet will receive plenty of attention and supervision. I’ll follow any routines and instructions you provide. I live in an apartment with no animals currently so your pet will always be close by and well supervised. ❤️
“Mario is awesome! He was very thoughtful and patient with our pets and did a great job of communicating with us while we were away. He really put us at ease. Would highly recommend 👍”
“Jenna was incredible! She went above and beyond to make sure we and our dog were comfortable and well cared for. She even brought in our mail! Jenna was prompt, kept us updated, was a great communicator, and sent pictures and videos with each visit. I 100% recommend her and will reach out again, when needed.”
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.

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wappingers Falls. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
