“This was Alyssa's third time watching our cat, Medi! I really appreciated Alyssa's detailed updates, photos, and patience with Medi as she gradually warmed up to Alyssa.”
“Tara was very punctual and arrived on time for all the visits. She has a great rapport with cats! Communication was very good and I was glad to see photos of my kitty while I was away.”
“Shawn was wonderful with Max. He took great care with his feeding and insulin injection; he kept to the schedule Max is on… arrived on time and had some playtime with Max. This was my first experience with Rover and was very pleased. I highly recommend Shawn to care for your little furballs! Thank you Shawn!”
About: Hi! I'm Jenn, an animal lover based offering attentive, reliable care for your dogs and cats. As a cat owner myself, I understand the patience, routines, and little details that keep pets happy and comfortable. I've cared for dogs of all sizes: feeding, walking, playtime, and plenty of affection and I'm comfortable administering medications, so pets with special needs are always welcome. Whether your pup needs a midday walk, drop-in visits while you're away, or a cozy overnight stay in my apartment, I'll treat them with love and patience. You'll get timely updates, photos, and real peace of mind while you're away. I'm also fully bilingual in English and Spanish. ¡Hablo español, así que también atiendo con gusto a familias hispanohablantes! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priority. I'd love to meet you and your furry family member! I have a full time job during weekdays. With 3 on site office days and 2 remote days. I'm available weekdays after 5pm and weekends. In my home (boarding): I keep a clean, calm, secure apartment with no other resident pets, so your dog or cat has a quiet space and my full attention. I keep doors and windows secured, never leave a pet unattended in unfamiliar surroundings, and follow the feeding, walking, and medication schedule you provide. Leashes always go on before we step outside. In your home (drop-in visits & walks): I follow your instructions exactly — feeding, fresh water, litter or potty breaks, playtime, and any medications. I respect your home, lock up carefully, and leave everything as I found it. On walks, I keep dogs leashed and stick to safe, familiar routes. For every service: I send photo and video updates so you always know your pet is happy and safe, I stay reachable throughout the booking, and I always do a free meet-and-greet first. If anything ever seems off with your pet's health or behavior, I'll contact you right away and follow your emergency plan.
“Angie was great. She understands cat well. We left our kitten to her place, she took care of her and we didn’t have to worry about her. She was also flexible with the timings which I really appreciate as we were running late from our trip. She shared with us pictures of our cat and we felt relieved.”
“Catie did an amazing job house sitting for us and administering oral meds for our senior cat while we were away for 10 days. We felt very comfortable with her and knew our Lily was in caring hands—came back to a happy, healthy cat and spotless home! Thank you Catie!”

I especially love working and specialize with high energy dogs that need their daily zoomies. Additionally, as a former dog owner myself, I am familiar with what’s needed to keep your pup happy!

Whether it’s just around the block or entire neighborhood, I will have no issues keeping up with your pet!
About: I have experience with petsitting very anxious dogs, pets with special needs, and pets who need more attention than most. Just let me know ahead of time if your dog barks at everything so I can be prepared to soothe them. I'm pretty flexible with most pets! I'm available 24/7 in Westchester, NY. I need something to do to keep me busy since I don't have much of a schedule at the moment. Let me know if your pet has any special needs or preferences. Please bring toys or anything else your pet uses daily. I'm pretty flexible and I can sort out the rest of anything.
“Kalliope was quick with responding to my request. Showed up on time for the visit and took care of my dogs very well on a hot summer day. My dogs looked happy and tired at the end of the visit”
“Brooke cheerfully agreed to do last minute drop ins for me over the Christmas holiday. She was prompt, reliable and sent me pics of my cat every time she came. I am very happy to recommend Brooke’s services, and will certainly ask for her again myself.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life! I love playing and walking with dogs, but also love the downtime and chill attitudes cats have. Taking care of pets brings me a lot of joy and excited to care for your fur babies! I’m currently working a fully remote job. I live an active lifestyle so rest assured your dog will be walked! If you have a cat, I can also come by during the workday to check in on them. I live in a two bedroom apartment with my partner with wonderful natural light and non-smoking environment. Your pets will have peace of mind that the place is just for them.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life! I grew up with two dogs, three cats, and five hamsters, so there’s never been a dull moment! My Beagle, Argos, was my first best friend. He was full of energy, and we were practically inseparable! I also cared for him through his senior years, which taught me so much about patience and understanding older pets. Then came Sumo, our Chow Chow, who was the complete opposite! He acted more like a cat, loved his independence, and enjoyed long walks. I’ve also cared for my neighbor’s Pit Bull and a family member’s Australian Shepherd. I’ve even traveled all the way to Amsterdam to dog sit for family! I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters with both cats and dogs, where I gained experience working with stressed and nervous animals and learned how important patience and a gentle approach can be. From energetic pups to laid-back seniors, I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Big or small, I’ll treat your furry friend like my own, and I can’t wait to meet them! 🐾 I work remotely part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your furry friends! I’m available Monday through Thursday after 4 PM and have completely open availability on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or some extra love and attention while you’re away, I’m happy to work around their routine! I have a large, fully fenced backyard where your furry friends can safely run around, play, and get plenty of exercise! Outdoor playtime is always supervised, so your pet will never be left outside alone. I love spending time with animals, whether it’s playing fetch, going for walks, or just relaxing and giving them lots of cuddles! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. I’ll follow their usual feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions you provide. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll treat your space with respect and make sure your furry friend feels just as loved and cared for as they would with you. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates throughout the day so you know they’re in good hands!
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my whole life. Friends, family, and peers trust me to take care of their pets while they’re away. I made sure that they returned home better than ever like they went on a vacation too! I have experience with high-energy pups to senior dogs and can adapt to their personality and pace. I enjoy caring for animals from walking, playing, administering medication, grooming, and providing a calm space. What find most important is being patient and attentive to what your pet specifically needs. My top priority is always keeping pets happy and healthy. I’m currently on a break from school and not working on anything else. My dog, cat, and turtle keep me company in the house. I enjoy daily walks, visiting the park, and sunset outings. Rain or shine I’m available to go on walks, have playtime, visit parks, or give cozy cuddles. I’d be happy to take dogs out to walk wherever they’re most comfortable. I can also assist with grooming, clean up, take in mail, water plants, or any other tasks. I’m currently not taking pets into my home but I am willing to travel.
“Susan is wonderful! She was so kind and patient with our sweet but anxious 14-year-old cat that we felt comfortable going away. Susan was such a pleasure to deal with, and she was very responsive and dependable. She kept us in the loop after each drop-in, giving us all the details about her visit. We can’t thank Susan enough and would definitely ask her to cat sit again without any hesitation!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - West Harrison
Cynthia is fantastic. She’s taken care of my cats several times now, and is very responsible and communicative. My older cat needs medication daily, and sometimes is not as cooperative about taking it as he should be. Cynthia knows how to handle him and get him to take it regardless of his mood. I love getting the photos after she finishes up each visit so I know they are well. If you are going away and need someone to look after your furballs, I highly recommend Cynthia.
I cannot speak highly enough of Brandon. My shy boys have really warmed to him over 4 engagements across a couple of years. He is very attentive, takes good care of the boys, and respectful of my house (very important to me when someone is in my house when I'm away). On this trip I had to extend my travels by a couple of days and fortunately Brandon was flexible and stayed on an extra 2 days which helped massively in a very stressful situation. I feel lucky to have found Brandon and know I can safely go away knowing my cats are in such safe hands
Heather was so caring and responsive! As a new and slightly anxious fur mom, I really appreciated the pics and updates. She took great care of my baby while I was out of town, and it made it so much easier to relax and enjoy my time away knowing Princess was eating, getting some playtime, and in such good hands. I definitely recommend Heather!
Amy did an incredible job taking care of our cat Ash! He was well taken care of and enjoyed spending time with her – Amy was incredibly communicative in letting us know constant updates on how Ash was doing. She even made time to get to know us, Ash, and our home better before our trip. We're incredibly thankful for her help over the holidays!
absolutely loved having catie as our cat sitter! She was amazing with our cat Charlotte — patient, gentle, and very caring. She sent us daily updates, which truly gave us peace of mind during our trip. Charlotte can be shy, but she slowly warmed up to her, and that meant the world to us. We felt completely confident and happy knowing Charlotte was in such good hands. Thank you so much for everything — we would definitely book with you again!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
