“Lindsey was Amazing!!! She took excellent care of Cleo and my home, and didn’t mind helping with the odd task if we asked. Will definitely be looking to book with her again!”
“We would give Davey 8 stars if possible. He went above and beyond in caring for MILA and our home. They were perfectly matched and Davey was able to intertwine his work with providing excellent care and attention. We will choose Davey every time when available to love on our dog.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and grew up in a household with five dogs and three cats, so caring for pets has always been a part of my daily routine. Over the years, I’ve become the go-to person for friends and family whenever they need someone reliable to watch their pets while they’re away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s taking dogs on walks, playing with them, or giving cats the attention and affection they deserve. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own. I currently serve in the military, which has helped me develop strong responsibility, reliability, and attention to detail. While I work during the day, I have the flexibility to stop by during lunch breaks and am available before and after work for visits, walks, feedings, and quality time with your pets. My schedule is generally very open outside of work hours, and I do my best to accommodate each pet owner’s needs. You can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and committed to making sure your pets are well cared for while you’re away Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my goal is always to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they get plenty of attention and exercise. My apartment complex has plenty of walking areas and open space, making it a great environment for dogs who enjoy getting outside and exploring. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to stick to their normal routine so they feel relaxed and secure while their owner is away. Every pet is different, and I’m happy to adapt to their individual needs, energy levels, and personalities.

“Theresa was amazing to our puppers. We got a rescue about a week before we had to leave and he isn’t quite potty trained and needed some real love. She was not only great with him, but also our other two dogs. We came home to some very happy, healthy pups and that’s all we can ask for!”
“Elizabeth was great with my dogs and kept me informed on how they were doing. Its nice not having to worry about the dogs and the care while away. I would definitely recommend Elizabeth.”
“Scott did a great job taking care of my home and my two dogs. As a first time Rover user I was a bit nervous, but Scott's frequent communications and pictures put me at ease. I would request Scott again if I take another trip.”
About: I love dogs of all kinds. I understand the seperation anxiety a dog can experience when their owners are away and will do everything I can to make them feel comfortable. I don't have any children in the house but lots of toys for the four legged babies to play with. My house is very dog friendly with cushie pillows and dogs beds to snuggle in. I provide fleece blankets for the dogs to lay on if they're not comfortable on the pillows or dog beds. Even with a huge fenced backyard, I will always go out with the dogs to play with them and make sure they stay safe. I have two dogs of my own to keep you dog company. Your dog will feel lots of love until you return.
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including walking, feeding, and giving plenty of attention and love. I’ve also helped neighbors by dog-sitting and walking their pups when needed. I’m patient, reliable, and excited to care for your furry family member! I trained my dog Beau from puppyhood, so I’m familiar with basic commands, house training, and patience needed for young dogs. I’m also comfortable providing gentle care for senior dogs, including help with medication and slower-paced walks. Pet care fits well into my daily routine. On weekdays, I’m available early mornings (5:00–6:30 a.m.) and evenings after 4:30 p.m. I have mostly open availability on weekends and can provide flexible care then. I live in an apartment, so dogs in my care get regular walks and lots of attention. I walk my own dog, Beau, daily and often take him to the dog park for exercise and enrichment. In a client’s home, I follow their routines closely to help pets feel safe and secure. I respect their space, follow all instructions, and make sure pets are comfortable and cared for. I’m always mindful of leash safety, locked doors, and keeping a calm, pet-friendly environment. Owners can trust that I’ll treat their pets and homes with the same care I give my own.

I take care of my pets full time and I would most happy to help care for yours knowing they are not in the wrong hands I have fenced in front yard and huge backyard I also have a kennel for lab when I leave to run a errand or my two cats are in and outside all pets are vaccinated
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. For the past 10 years, I've cared for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and breeds, and I love getting to know each pet's unique personality. I'm also a pet parent to two cats, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets when you can't be there. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether that means going for walks, playing their favorite game, sticking to their routine, or simply giving them plenty of attention and cuddles. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to give pet parents peace of mind while they're away. I'm a business owner, so I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to work around my clients' needs. This flexibility gives me plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable care and accommodate a variety of pet sitting requests. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I'll do my best to follow all of your instructions, prioritize your pet's safety and well-being, and treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I also believe good communication is important, so you can count on regular updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you're away.
About: I have been taking care animals since i was 5 years old and so i became a vet tech. Now i am living a dream Pet care fits in my schedule because this is what I do every day for work. I have been a veterinary tech for 2 years I have 2 acres fenced in yard for your fur babies to run around play all day. I will care for babies just like my own
About: I am a full time and personally insured pet sitter with experience caring for senior, neonatal, disabled, medicated, and even show animals. There is no pet I can't care for, no matter how large or small! I am a full time pet sitter, so I can work my schedule around any time needs you may have. Whether it be time sensitive medications, mid-day drop ins, or something else, I can accommodate it. I offer pet sitting in your home. This can be daily walks, drop ins, or even overnight care.

About: I've been taking care of animals since i was a child. As a professional, I have over six years of animal boarding and dog training experience. I have experience in animal bathing, and administering medications for both cats and dogs. I love working with young animals, but i adore senior pets the most. I would love to take care of your baby! If you are interested in dog training just let me know. I'm experienced in balanced-dog training and have trained over a hundred dogs through housecalls and group classes. For a typical day, it's potty breaks and breakfast first thing in the morning. If I don't have any housecalls, I'll be home with your pet. Your pet will get potty breaks every 1.5 hours on minimum until their last potty break at 8 p.m. Your pet will get 2 walks a day either around your neighborhood or at a dog park. If I do have housecalls to attend to, my work day will cut short so your pet won't be alone for too long. If I'm doing a dog training housecall, the lesson is typically one hour. We will go over one or two commands at a time and we will train the dog until i feel that the client and dog have a good understanding of what's going on. I can usually cover over basic obedience in eight lessons. I try to schedule these lessons once every week, but its all based on the clients schedule. I never let your out of my sight while their are in my care. The only times I would ever leave pet would be to go to housecalls or gather supplies. I will take your pet on walks, training practice and provide them with a bath if you ask me or if they get too dirty while in my care.
“I cannot recommend Sophie enough! We were in a huge pinch with a last-minute booking for our Teddy, during our two-day wedding event. From the start, she was an absolute professional—responding quickly and even making letting us know immediately if she's available. She provided frequent photo and message updates throughout the two days, which completely eased our nerves while we were busy with wedding festivities. She followed all care instructions perfectly, and in a last minute issue she never broke professionalism. Knowing Teddy was in capable hands allowed us to actually enjoy our wedding weekend without worrying. We returned to a happy dog who clearly was well taken care of. She truly went above and beyond for a specialty booking like this. If you need someone I highly recommend Sophie!”

My dad has 2 dogs, so we like to play with them in the backyard and I have a small dog and I like to sit with her in the front yard, she’s super spoiled she thinks she’s the queen of the house.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in White Plains on Rover is $46.17 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 139 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across White Plains. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred White Plains walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in White Plains maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in White Plains choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
