About: I provide reliable, loving care tailored to each pet's needs. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, basic training reinforcement, and medication administration. My goal is to keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you're away. I’m currently a university student looking to earn some extra income while pursuing my studies. Dog walking fits well into my schedule, and I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals. I’m available throughout the week and committed to providing safe, reliable, and attentive care for every dog I walk. When caring for pets in a client's home, I always follow the owner's instructions and maintain the pet's routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. During walks, I prioritize safety by using secure leashes, staying aware of my surroundings, and ensuring pets get appropriate exercise, attention, and care. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect as if they were my own.
“My dog, Roo, had a phenomenal stay with Leticia!! Leticia was very kind and friendly, and had a lovely and cozy home that I felt very comfortable with Roo staying at. Roo is a very finicky chihuahua with high anxiety and is an extreme velcro dog, and she bonded with Leticia without a problem! Roo also tends to go on hunger strikes while I’m away, but to my surprise and delight, she had no problems eating while at Leticia’s! Leticia sent lots of pictures and videos of Roo, which really helped my own anxiety with leaving Roo with a sitter from Rover for the first time. Overall, Roo was happy and healthy and I couldn’t have been more pleased! I would definitely recommend Leticia to anyone!!”
“Kamil did a great job taking care of Cooper for a week. She kept me updated with photos and videos. I would definitely use Kamil the next time I go away on vacation and need a dog sitter.”
“Mariana was so communicative and took such great care of my dog. Agnes clearly enjoyed her time with Mariana. Thank you so much. I will definitely contact you, again.”
“Madison was absolutely great with my cat while she was sitting for 8 days. She was easy to communicate with, super sweet, and updated me with photos of my cat. I would totally ask her to sit my cat again during my next vacation!”
“We’re so grateful for the amazing care Sujaya gave our dog, Bosston, over the weekend. They were incredibly attentive, especially when Bosston’s belly wasn’t feeling the best and during the fireworks, which usually make him nervous. She went the extra mile to comfort him and kept us updated the whole time, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell Bosston was in loving hands. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!!”
“Brandi was great with Enzo! She watched him for a few nights, and I felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands. She was wonderful to work with, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I would definitely book with Brandi again”
“I We had a great experience with Yesenia and Manny while Cody stayed with them for 4 days during our trip. It was Cody’s first time boarding at someone else's house, and everything went smoothly. Yesenia and Manny were very attentive and caring, which made us feel completely at ease. They also sent us regular pictures and videos of Cody, so we could see how well he was doing while we were away. We highly recommend them and would definitely trust them again!”
“John and his family are absolutely amazing. I left Iroh with him for a full week and didn’t worry once! He sent pics and kept me updated throughout my trip, which really put my mind at ease! 100000/10 would recommend!!!”
“Bridget was great. Took excellent care of Bella. We were very nervous and worried, but things worked out great. Process was smooth and no complaints.”
“Nicole was very caring for Pickles and her pup had patience putting up with Pickles teenager tactics. We really appreciate them caring for our boy while we were away.”
“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.”
“I don’t have enough words in my vocabulary to describe how amazing Anna has been with my dog. She took her for a week while I was away and sent pictures and descriptions everyday of all the fun they were having. She honestly gave her a better time than I’m able to give her when I’m home - my dog was a spoiled girl! I recommend a million times over.”
“Eva is such a warm, thoughtful dog sitter. She texts with any questions and my dogs felt right at home with her. She is great about taking them for walks in Central Park and sending great pics. She truly loves dogs and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Joseph was great with my cat. He took her in on short notice, just one day before I had to leave for vacation, and during the holidays. He was so attentive to her needs, and he was quick to respond to the messages I would send him. Highly recommend!!!”
“Eric was wonderful! He provided boarding services for our dog Benji last minute. We had vacation plans that were made months in advance and could not bring Benji. Given that I was a first time dog parent and had recently adopted Benji, I was nervous about boarding him so early on during Benji’s decompression period. Eric was great with communication - he agreed to meet Benji prior to the boarding date so Benji could be familiar with him. He also provided my husband and I photos/videos of Benji daily. When we got Benji back, we could tell that he had a blast with Eric. Thank you again Eric for helping us out! I would definitely recommend him!”
About: I have taken care of animals since i was in middle school. I have a dog and cat of my own and i love them so much.

I enjoy animals! My house if full of love having 3 siblings that all adore animals as we already have 2. And we all walk our dog and feed them whenever is needed- No arguments there- we make sure our dog is full!!
“Ryan watched both our dogs for a couple of days while we were gone. Initially it was only supposed to be one but we had some plans change and had a last minute request which he kindly accommodated. He kept us updated everyday while watching the boys. One of them got an upset stomach which he helped tend to. Thank you for taking good care of the boys!”
“We are very happy to ask Maureen for our Chamonix. Maureen was waiting for us in front of her house to do a first meeting before sitting. She’s very reliable and responsible. She kindly updated how Chamonix’s doing through her stay. We will definitely return to her if we needs someone next time.”

Everything went very well for my first pet sitting experience for my cat Timothy. Katherine was very personable and polite during the whole process., upon p/u cat was bright and purring and was not surprised he had made himself at home with a new person. Will definitely ask Katherine to take care of him again in future!
Your beloved pet is in great care with Pachara and Steven. We had peace of mind on our trip while our Timmy was in their care. Pachara listened intently to Timmy’s routine and preferences and gave him a comfortable and loving environment until we returned. We are very thankful and would trust them again and recommend them to others.
Jenette was terrific with our baby girl. It was our first time to leave her with anyone so we were nervous, but Jenette put us at ease. She stayed in constant communication and always responded very quickly. She well organized and detailed. We will definitely be leaving our dog with Jenette again!
Janis was wonderful with Benita! She was super responsive, kept me updated, and sent videos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Benita is a shy puppy, but she looked happy and comfortable with Janis. I really appreciated her care and would definitely recommend her!
Brayhana is the best. I rely on my dog to tell me how a sitter does, and Rosie makes it very clear that she adores her. Rosie gets excited as soon as we turn onto the block and bounds toward the front door. I know she’s is treated with love and care, and I appreciate how Brayhana checks in each day.
We left our doggy again with this lovely family - who now have a baby who is also so sweet with Wilbur. We love them so much and love knowing Wilbur is being taken care. During the heat wave, they made sure to take special care (walking in the morning, ensuring AC is on) as our dog gets super hot outside.
I cannot say enough amazing things about Lakeema! From the moment Winter arrived, I knew she was in great hands, but Lakeema exceeded every expectation. She treated Winter like one of her own, and it was clear that Winter absolutely fell in love with her and her family. Throughout the stay, I received updates that gave me so much peace of mind, and when I picked Winter up, she came home happy, relaxed, and literally smiling. It was obvious she had been showered with love, attention, and care the entire time. What truly touched my heart was the kindness Lakeema showed me as well. She even surprised me with a birthday cake, which was such a thoughtful gesture and completely unexpected. That level of care and generosity speaks volumes about the kind of person she is. As a dog mom, finding someone you trust with your fur baby is priceless, and I can confidently say Winter has found her sitter for life. We are so grateful for Lakeema and her wonderful family, and I know Winter is already looking forward to her next visit! Thank you, Lakeema, for loving Winter like your own. ❤️🐾🎂
Monica was great with my two shih-poos! She was loving, extra attentive, and took care of several details, including insulin shots and careful walks with my older dog who is diabetic and blind. She sent videos and photos, and was lovely to deal with. I recommend!
Beatriz and her family genuinely care about our fur babies as if they were their own! My dogs are older, one has arthritis and separation anxiety, yet Beatriz gave him the love and attention he required. She was extraordinarily accommodating. Her home is spacious and very pet friendly. She sends daily pictures and updates. When I am making travel arrangements, I check her availability first because I wouldn’t want anyone else to care for my pets during my absence. Thank you Beatriz!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Boarding in Yonkers is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $72 per night. 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.
There are 14,304 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Yonkers. About 88% of Yonkers sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NY ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
