I have two huge parks and a fenced dog park to bring your fur baby to! The apartment is very spacious and dog friendly so you don't have to worry about your dog feeling stressed and claustrophobic.

About: Dear Pet Parents, I absolutely love animals — especially dogs! From tiny Pomeranians to giant Great Danes, I adore the kisses, cuddles, and happy tail wags. I share my home with several dogs of different breeds and personalities, as well as two cats, so I’m very experienced in managing different temperaments, energy levels, and routines. Because of this, I understand how important structure, supervision, and safety are when caring for pets. As a proud dog owner myself, I truly know that pets are not “just animals” — they are family. I will treat your fur baby like one of my own. Your pet will be loved, spoiled, and cared for in a safe, structured environment. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. I promise to earn that trust. I provide regular updates, photos, and open communication so you can feel completely comfortable while you’re away. Please feel free to message me with any specific instructions, routines, or special needs your pup (or kitty!) may have — I’m always happy to accommodate. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby! 😊 Pet care is already part of my daily routine since I care for multiple dogs and two cats of my own. My day is structured around feeding schedules, potty breaks, enrichment time, and supervised play. Because of this, adding your pet into my routine is seamless and intentional. I prioritize consistency, supervision, and maintaining your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible to reduce stress. I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks, and I provide frequent updates so you always feel connected while you’re away. Safety is my top priority. I have experience managing a multi-pet household with different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Pets are always supervised, especially during introductions and playtime. I can separate animals if needed and am comfortable crating when requested for rest or safety. I follow feeding instructions carefully and keep environments clean and structured. I pay close attention to body language to ensure all pets are comfortable and stress-free. Your pet will be treated like family while in my care.
“Lynsey, Made me feel comfortable from our first meeting! She knew my vet already and was familiar with the local neighborhood! She asked great questions and was so nice! When it came to taking care of my cat she did an incredible job! I, like most pet owners, am obsessed with my animal and Lynsey took care of my cat like she was just as in love as I am with my tiny animal! I can't thank her enough!!!!!!”
About: All my life I’ve had a love for animals and my fair share of pets. I treat every pet like they’re my own, not just a job to check off. I pay close attention to their routine, behavior, and personality so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m very reliable with feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and keeping their environment clean.What really sets me apart is that I don’t just ‘watch’ pets. I actively engage with them, whether that’s playtime, enrichment, or just giving them the attention and affection they need. I am currently a stay at home mom, so I have a lot of free time to walk or visit your fur babies whenever needed! I responsibly care for dogs in their home by following routines, providing food, exercise, and companionship, maintaining cleanliness, monitoring health, and ensuring a safe and comfortable environment.

About: I’ve had my two cats for about three years now, and we’ve built a routine together around feeding, playing, sleeping, and everything in between. Every day when I walk through the door, they’re the first two to greet me. I make sure they’re always fed, clean, hydrated, well cared for, and most importantly, safe. I work full time during the week, so I’m generally unavailable during the day, but I’m usually free in the evenings after work and have full availability on weekends. I live in a two-bedroom, ground-floor apartment with a private, enclosed patio where my cats can safely explore outdoors without the risk of escaping. We also have an extra bedroom set up so they have their own space and time when they want it.

I worked as a dog Walker and pet sitter for a company for about 4 years.I still board pets and walk dogs on my own. I got a new puppy, Nugget, during covid. He is a covid baby and has never been alone. Any puppy I watch will never be alone.... a family member is always home ! If I have to step out or for some reason and Cannot bring the puppies with me wherever I am going. Your dog will never be alone. I am not working right now. Waiting for the DOE to fix my paperwork. So i am free! I am a teacher but I am looking to either go part-time or just be a pet sitter. All together. I have been working in schools for about 20 years. And I love the kids, but I love puppies, then going to the park a lot. .If I have to work for a few hours, someone is always home at my house. Your dog will never be alone. My dog is named nugget.He is a rescue border collie mix. Nugget is about 4 years old. He is super kind, playful, sweet and loves to play with other dogs.

Your puppy will never be alone and hopefully likes other dogs... If your dog is not good with other dogs just let me know.... Nugget doesn't have to be there then.
About: I have had pets (dogs and cats) for all of my life and I really enjoy taking care of them. I have cared professionally animals over the past few years, and I look forward to hosting more! Currently I live alone, but I used to live with both a dog and two cats, so I thoroughly understand what is necessary for taking care of either. I live close to a couple of parks, and my neighborhood is very safe to walk around. Through this app, I want to gain more professional experience caring for pets as well as getting to know your pets’ different personalities. I do not currently have an animal of my own, so hosting your animal(s) will bring me great joy. I have flexible availability and look forward to taking care of your wonderful pets! Feel free to message me if you have any questions or comments! I currently work remotely, so I have ample time to spend taking care of your pets. Essentially, I would be able to take your dog out at least 3 times a day and more if needed. I am also completely home on the weekends, so I would absolutely have more time to spend with your beloved pets. I do daily morning, afternoon, and night walks to ensure that your dog can be relieved at a reasonable time. I dedicate time to stimulate and relax your dog as appropriate. I think mental stimulation is extremely important especially for high energy breeds.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Yonkers is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $42 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 27,179 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 .
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.

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 .
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.
