“very thankful for Caroline to come in at the last minute with my sitter quit on me while I was out of town for the weekend. I would highly recommend Caroline for any of your pets needs”
“Brooke was super. She went above and beyond for our four cats, leaving a retailed record with plenty of pictures of each visit she made. She did more than we asked, changing the cats' water, scrubbing out the littler box, etc. She made friends with our three finicky indoor cats, and the outdoor kitty fell in love with her. We will definitely ask for Brooke's services again!”
About: While I’m new to professional pet sitting, I’m a responsible, dependable, and hardworking person who understands the importance of trusting someone with your home and pets. Growing up with a strong country and outdoor lifestyle has taught me responsibility, patience, and respect for animals. I will treat your pets and home with the same care and attention I would want someone to give mine. I’m also active and enjoy being outdoors, so I’m prepared to make sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and care they need. I pride myself on being trustworthy, communicating well, and following your specific instructions to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I’m a college student at Georgia Southern, so my day-to-day schedule is built around classes and studying. I have a fairly flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care for pets throughout the week. Availability: * Monday & Wednesday: Before 10 AM and after 5 PM * Tuesday & Thursday: Before 2 PM and after 6 PM * Friday: Very flexible — unavailable only from 10 AM to 3 PM This schedule allows me to provide reliable morning, afternoon, and evening care while staying consistent with your pet’s routine. I may be able to check in between classes depending on the situation. Your dog will be in a calm, comfortable, and caring environment where their normal routine is the priority. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide consistent attention, including feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and companionship based on your instructions. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I will work to keep them comfortable and maintain the routine they are used to while you’re away. Your home will also be treated with the same respect and care as if it were my own.
About: I have always loved animals! I have two of my own and grew up taking care of my family’s dogs and cats. I would love to take care of your fur baby like my own! I work part-time during the week and do not mind taking breaks in between for drop in visits and walks! I can accommodate my schedule to whatever the animal needs. Keeping my animals safe is of upmost importance to me! I personally am very careful with mine and would do the same for your animals.

My schedule may change depending on my classes. I take care of pets my making sure they’re well fed and attended to. I’ve also make sure they’re get enough exercise so get their energy out for the day.
“I would leave more stars if I could! Britani has watched our pups on multiple occasions and always does an amazing job. Our babies love her and my mind is at ease when she is taking care of them while we are gone. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great pet setter. :)”
About: I have grown up with pets my whole life. I’ve had Rottweiler, cane corso, and English Mastiff. I currently own a husky and pitbull. I’ve also had cats. I would rather get paid to play your animals all day than have to do another day of customer service. I currently work nights 4 days a week so I have plenty of time to help fit your needs! I love animals so much! It’s fits in my life because I have two dogs myself so it’s nothing new to me. I have my own apartment and a balcony and plenty of space for your baby to run around. I take my dogs on walks 5+ a day so I’m used to it! I can’t wait!

I am currently working at South Paws Dog Resort for 3 hours a day but I am free to watch your pups after 10 am! I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company.

“Highly recommend Timothy! I needed last minute help with my 2 pups (lab and great dane) and it was perfect! The boys were taken care of and happy! Great communication and on time for my appointment! I will be using him again for sure!!!!! 10 🌟!!!!!”
About: Hi! I have had dogs since I was born. Older, younger, smaller, larger, much larger. I have been dog watching since around age 14 or so. I currently have one chiweenie (13), my sweet baby, whom I had to leave for a bit because of schooling, though I tend to her weekly. I also volunteer at a nearby animal shelter to help out the understaffed staff with all of their animals as well! I am currently working part-time as of now, but I will be very open as soon as I begin to gain a clientele! Message me or request times, and I will be very happy to come sit your pups! I will mostly be offering client home sittings, as my home is on a non-fenced, multi-acre piece of land. Safety for your pup is very important to me, so we might take a trip to a nearby dog park if they are residing with me for an allotted time.
About: I've had a Yorkie Terrier Mix (Tico) since I was about eight years old and would consistently take care of him while home. My tasks consist of frequent walks to ensure fitness, meals twice a day, a snack or two if he's being good, and making sure he looks handsome and is clean. I would also frequently take care of local friends pets and homes while away on vacation! I grew up taking of my dog Tico since I was about 8 years old and have taken up that responsibility since then! Ever since moving away I’ve missed getting to spend time with furbabies! If hired for services, I will ensure that I will take care of your home and pet as I would mine. I know as a furry friend lover myself, I want to make sure my pet is not only safe but happy while being taken care of.

Megan visited with us before sitting with our dog, Brody. She did a wonderful job of caring for him while we were on vacation. She was punctual, sent us messages and photos at every visit, and went above and beyond during her visits with him. We will definitely be booking Megan again the next time we go out of town.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Westchester is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $35 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 November 2026, there are 150 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Westchester. 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 Westchester. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
