About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud owner of a one-year-old French Bulldog, so I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and caring to look after your pup. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether it’s going for walks, playtime, or just giving them attention and affection. I have experience walking and caring for other dogs of different sizes and personalities, and I’m comfortable handling energetic pups as well as dogs that prefer a slower pace. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always focus on making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care. As a dog owner myself, I know how important routines, communication, and reliability are. I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, attention, and care, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry friend and help make their day fun, active, and stress-free! I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and I always make time to give dogs the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m also happy to work with your dog’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure pets are supervised, secure, and cared for in a calm and loving environment. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important trust and communication are, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages while your pup is with me. Moreover, my home is always clean and dog safe. I’m experienced with crate training, basic training, grooming, and handling dogs with different personalities, and I always treat every dog like family. I also have a friendly one-year-old girl French Bulldog who loves other dogs and can provide companionship and playtime for social pups. I always supervise interactions to make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable.

About: I have a love for animals and it shows in my level of care. I am a future veterinarian. Growing up my house always resembled a zoo, I’ve had dogs , cats, rabbits , turtles, fish , iguanas , birds, and even a crow. Yes a crow! Lol. I was always that person to bring home animals and take care of them whether I asked my mother if I can have them or not. I’m a caring soul with a caring heart and I hope to see and connect with you and your fur baby soon. A side from being a mother my other full time job would be this. I have a large amount of free time so my schedule is open. As things start to pick up availability is subject to change. I offer a safe and controlled home for your fur baby to relax comfortably. My home is clean and animal friendly. Plently of space for long walks and new scents.

About: Hi everyone, welcome to Camp Mango ⛺️🧡🌳! As a loving dog mom to my mini goldendoodle, Mango, I bring over four years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, litter changes, administering vitamins/medications, playtime, or practicing basic commands, I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely invested in every pet’s well-being. Mango and I would be more than happy to welcome your pup or kitty into our routine whenever you need support. I’m available on weekends and select evenings. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness will always be my top priorities. 🐾💛 I’m primarily available on weekends for sleepovers, daycare, and drop-in visits, and I’m happy to step in whenever you need reliable care. I do work a standard 9–5 during the week, but I occasionally have work from home days. When those come up, I can offer additional weekday availability as well. I put up any loose or hanging wires to avoid pets chewing on them. I close all doors to avoid any wandering off. I require walk-throughs, meet and greets, along with information regarding any health concerns.

About: Ive been pet sitting since I was around 12 years old, and have had a dog ever since I was a kid. I love taking care of animals and giving them as much love and attention as possible. Ive taken care of small Yorkies to large Rottweilers and everything in between. I have also been professionally walking dogs for the last 5 years. I have always had a special place in my heart for animals of all kinds, which leads me to prioritize their needs. I am currently working as a professional pet sitter/walker so your pets needs are my top priority! I am very diligent about keeping the animals safe; not only while they are outside but while they are in the home as well. While on walks I have worked with different kinds of reactive dogs and know techniques and strategies that will help keep all parties safe and secure. I also have experience in giving pets medication and making sure they don'e eat anything that could hurt them.

About: Hi everyone! I've owned dogs my entire life up until three years ago when my beloved poodle passed away after 15 years of being a part of our family. I love taking care of puppies and dogs, especially large dogs. I have personal experience (owning) and professional experience (walking and sitting) a variety of breeds from small to large. I love to enjoy the weather and make sure your pup gets adequate exercise and am available to walk your dog, house sit, or conduct drop-in visits as needed. I’m available in the mornings and evenings for walking and visits and can house sit on weekends. I'll always make sure your pup is safe, comforted, healthy, and having a great time! I can't wait to meet your pup! :) I'm looking forward to talking to you soon! I’m available every day as I’m in between jobs right now. I can fit multiple walks per day, drop ins, or dog sitting at your home at any time :) While I’m not able not able to care for pets at my home, I’ll be sure to follow your pet’s routines at home so there’s little disruption in their routine.

Bella was great. My cat recently developed a few health issues so it's been difficult nailing down the right feeding routines. Bella was very understanding even with some last minute changes in the feeding instructions. I would totally recommend her to anyone in the area.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Yonkers on Rover is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $42 per visit. 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 27,393 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Yonkers. 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 Yonkers. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
