“Cynthia has been by far the best cat sitter we have hired. We were out of town for over 2 weeks and were anxious about what to do about our 3 cats. With our previous sitter, behavioral issues occurred and our cats decided to poop all over the house, plus they seemed visibly upset upon our return. Cynthia provided updates and photos during each visit and gave them lots of attention. They were happy when we returned and showed no signs of stress. Cynthia also did a great job with cleaning our multiple litter boxes and bringing the mail in. She went beyond our expectations!!”
“Audrina is wonderful… a true kitty lover and all around lovely lady… She is very conscientious about her business and, not only takes great care of your pet, but is careful with your home… which is much appreciated… We’re fans!”
“Jynette helped us out last minute this week by walking our dog, Kirby. It didn’t take long for him to warm up to her! She was timely and so friendly during our meet and great. Highly recommend.”
About: Pets are great blessings to our lives and therefore deserve to be treated with the utmost respect and care we can give them. I will treat your pet as if he or she is my own and ensure they are well-taken care of! I grew up owning a dog and have since added 2 more to my family. I shared the responsibilities of feeding them, playing with them, and caring for each dog with my family members. I would be grateful for the opportunity to get to know and care for your pet! I will be free to care for your pet during both weekdays and weekends. I will have more availability during the summer. Can pet-sit overnight on weekdays as well. I will send pictures of your pet for each walk or stay I do. I am also happy to meet with families to get to know the pet before care starts. I can also be reached by phone or email if anything comes up.
“Fergus (our cat) loves Virginia. He never purrs for anyone the way he purrs for her. When we got home today after being away for several days, my husband heard Fergus meowing through the door before we entered and said to me, "I pretty sure he's meowing 'Virginia! Virginia!' He's going to be so disappointed that it's us!" Virginia is great with Fergus, very kind to us, and has been just a perfect pet sitter.”
“Julia was wonderful. She responded quickly to my last-minute request and was wonderful with my kitties. I will be doing all of my bookings with her in the future.”
“I continue to book Jeffrey to cat sit because he is so thorough, communicates incredibly well, and goes above and beyond when it comes to caring for my cat! As always, I highly recommend booking Jeffrey for your pet sitting needs :)”
“Margaret went above and beyond when caring for River. My smoke detector was going out due to an apparent dead battery or something and she made every effort to help the situation. Her communication was great and I felt very comfortable knowing that my cat was in her hands ! Thank you Margaret.”
“Sidney came to my rescue last minute when my pet sitter had a family emergency. My cats immediately took to her and she gave me much needed peace of mind a day out from my trip!”
“Makenzie did an amazing job looking after our two cats! One of them is quite shy and the other was dealing with a health issue while we were away, but she handled them perfectly and gave us helpful updates and pics along the way. Will definitely book her again in the future!”
“Jules has been great on communication, time of visits and execution of meds. I have 1 senior kitty who is special needs and was very hard for me to leave. She did an excellent job of taking care of her, making sure she got her meds and ate, always leaving extra out for her to eat when she wants. My other kitty easy but she still showed her the same attention. Also managed busy concierges in my complex an even took our packages up when that wasn’t her responsibility. She made it easier for me to leave as I was having a hard time. I’ll see ask her back when she’s in town from school.”
“Amy was absolutely amazing, I had no worries about my cats when normally I freak out leaving them. She sent amazing pictures of the cats and watered my plants. Thank you again so much!”
About: I’ve been a cat mama since our family cat chose me as his favorite nap spot the day I came home from the hospital! I raised my next bestie from the day she was born until she crossed the rainbow bridge, and I’ve loved my Fiona for nearly 14 years. I have plenty of experience with cats of all ages, including administering medication, accommodating quirky needs, and navigating sassy attitudes! I also grew up with a family dog and helped care for him while living at home and during college breaks. That included feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I bring patience and attention to each pet’s personality and routine, and I’m happy to learn all the little details that help yours feel comfortable and loved. I currently work freelance and have a very flexible schedule so my days are built around what bookings I have in a given week. Let me know what your needs are and we can work something out 🙂 Each visit comes will include a food, water and liter refresh plus treats, playtime and plenty of cuddles. I have plenty of experience with cats of all temperaments and will adjust care according to your instruction.
“Farnaz was awesome! She provided detailed updates and great pics of my kitty. She really went above and beyond to make sure he was taken care of. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet care!”
“My Louie can be a bit of a challenge… and Esther was great with him! She was patient while he warmed up to her, sending me photos and information along the way. He actually looked like he was smiling! I came home to a happy, healthy pup. Thank you, Esther! We can’t wait to use you again!”

Cynthia also did a great job with cleaning our multiple litter boxes and bringing the mail in. She went beyond our expectations!!
My cat is very hesitant around new people. Ann was extremely understanding and accommodating of his quirks to make him feel comfortable with her being in his space. She gave me thorough updates and multiple pictures every day. I highly recommend her, especially if you have skittish or quirky animals.
Marina was a lifesaver! We found her when our original pet sitter bailed on us last minute. She was super personable and very friendly. My mom stayed at our house with our pets all week but we needed someone to come walk our dog and Marina was awesome. She also went above and beyond to help my mom with our cat who needed to go to the vet while we were gone. I definitely would recommend her! She treated our pets with care and love and my mom was super impressed with her all week.
Damacia was absolutely wonderful with my dog. Easy to work with, gentle, kind, and truly a dog whisperer. Bentley felt comfortable right away, and I could tell he was being cared for with real patience and warmth. I would absolutely trust Damacia again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for thoughtful, compassionate pet care.
Trinity was great! She was very flexible and able to work with me last minute over a holiday which is amazing. She communicated with me regularly and sent me pics and updates of my kitty. I came home to a happy kitty. I will definitely use her as a sitter again and highly recommend her.
I found out about Rover last minute and needed a sitter for my cat, Mr. Baby as my wife and I were leaving town for thanksgiving. Sarah replied very quickly and made sure Mr. Baby was taken care of and given lots of cuddles. Will absolutely be asking her to come take care of Mr. Baby in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Westchester is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $26 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 1,224 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Westchester. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 .

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.
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
