“Lauren was wonderful! She had really good vibes from the beginning and did a great job with my cats. The cute pictures she took of them and the comments she left each time made my separation from my cats a little easier for me. Definitely recommend!”

“Miss Genevieve was great. She arrived every day that we booked, sent me photos and communicated with me to update how the kitties were doing. It was extremely comforting having her drop in while we were away. She also retrieved an Amazon package that contained Feliway plug-in for the cats and set that up for them. Truly thankful for her services.”

“Alexis was kind enough to check in on our kitties while we were out of town for a little over a week. We have a hard time leaving our cats as they’re used to someone being home with them all the time, but Alexis gave us all the reassurance we needed. She played with them using their favorite toys and provided us detailed updates. It’s clear from the pictures that our kitties adore her 🥰. It’s important to mention that Alexis took time out of a very special day for her to tend to our kitties, which I cannot thank her enough for. She is highly reliable! Alexis goes above and beyond, as she also cleaned up some broken pots outside that fell due to storm winds. I would highly recommend Alexis to watch any pet and will certainly be reaching out to her in the future when we go out of town.”

About: I love animals, have grown up with dogs and cats, and have been fostering cats for the last 5 years, I including administering all sorts of medicine to cats and kittens. I work from home and go on daily walks, so why not take your pup for a walk as well! I also love to travel and am happy to help other people travel by helping take care of their fur family. I’ve been fostering cats and kittens for over 5 years, and have absolutely loved helping these animals find loving homes. I don’t currently have any animals of my own, which can help make your animal feel comfortable in my home if necessary. I understand a lot of animals require patience and space to warm up, and am happy to work with their comfort level.

About: I have experience rescuing cats and dogs and administering medication. I’ve also done house sitting and pet sitting for several homes. I enjoy running and playing with dogs to keep them active and happy, and I can also help them stay calm when needed. I offer walks up to 1 hour and can safely handle up to 3 dogs at a time. I’m comfortable cleaning up after pets, changing diapers if needed, and giving medication. I work Mondays and Wednesday–Friday from 7 to 3, and Saturdays from 3 to 11pm. I’m free all day on Tuesdays and Sundays 😊 I adapt to each home and follow the owner’s preferences and routine for their pets. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for, whether that includes walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or keeping their space clean. I always adjust to each pet’s personality and needs.

About: I’ve been around cats and dogs since I was barely tall enough to see over a food bowl, and that lifelong hands-on experience shaped me into someone who naturally understands animal behavior, routines, and training. I’ve personally trained my own dogs and have always been deeply involved in their care, from daily structure to behavior shaping and enrichment. Right now I share my home with a cat who keeps life interesting, and I’m very attentive to creating a happy, stable environment for pets. Animals have always been a constant part of my life, and caring for them feels less like a task and more like second nature. 🐾 My schedule is pretty structured around my work hours: I work 4pm–12am, and outside of that I’m home and available for the rest of the day. I keep my routine simple and steady, and I’m usually around in the mornings and early afternoons before heading into work. I’m not someone who’s constantly on the go or juggling a million commitments—my life is more grounded in work, home, and taking care of my pets. That balance gives me a lot of consistency and time to focus on what matters day to day. I take safety and trust seriously when it comes to animals and their environment. In the past, I’ve crate-trained my dogs and learned how to create calm, structured routines that help them feel secure and well-behaved. I’m comfortable setting boundaries in a gentle but consistent way, depending on the needs of each pet. My home is also very pet-safe, especially because my current cat is extremely curious and determined to investigate everything. I’ve adapted my space to keep hazards out of reach and ensure it’s a safe, enriched environment where pets can explore without getting into trouble. I pay close attention to what they can access and how they interact with their surroundings, so safety is always built into the way I live with animals. 🐾

About: I’ve had pets for most of my life. I’ve had two cats and three dogs. My three dogs all weigh over 120 pounds and I am able and used to taking care of big dogs. Well experienced in taking care of multiple animals in a home. I’m well also used to talking care of cats needs, including their needs for space, litter, and playtime. I also enjoy spending time with any animal. I am flexible and free to help whenever needed. When I return to college I’ll balance helping out with your fluffy friends and my academics I will customise my service based on client needs. At home I feed my cat in the morning and early evening, cleaning litter daily and frequent water changes. For my dogs who are maremmas they require specific dietary needs so I cook for them as well as feed them regular kibble. One of my dogs had also specific medical needs.

About: I've had both cats and dogs of all ages and really love spending time with animals. As someone who has frequently had walkers for my own dog I understand how important it is to know your pet is being watched by someone who can give them ample exercise and show them lots of love when owners are away. I'd love to be the one to give it to them! I'm good with dogs of any level of energy and size and love to play! I'm a hiker and would be happy to take your pet along with me if they need extra exercise! I can't wait to get to take care of your pet!

About: I have several years of experience caring for a wide range of animals, from beloved furry companions to fish and even large reptiles. My passion for animals began at a young age, inspired in part by countless hours watching Animal Planet, which helped spark my curiosity and deepen my understanding of animal behavior. Over the years, I’ve developed a natural ability to connect with animals, especially those that may feel anxious or unsure. I take pride in creating a calm, reassuring environment that helps pets feel safe and loved. For me, pet care isn’t just a responsibility. It’s a heartfelt commitment. After all, our pets are family, and I treat them as such. At this moment, I currently have no pets. But I am open and available to assist with others who do. I’m pretty flexible. My classwork is self paced. It’s all about what the client needs. Believe it or not but some animals do have allergies. So there are a lot of does and don’ts. Other than that, I assure any mess is cleaned up, pets are fed properly and on schedule, and bathroom breaks are given. And of course play time and walks if needed.

About: I offer pet sitting, dog walking, baths, to give your pets the love, care, and attention they deserve. I have dogs of my own who are treated like royalty, so I understand that our pets aren’t just animals — they’re family! I have 7 years of pet-sitting experience and have also completed an internship at a veterinary hospital. Your pets’ comfort, happiness, and well-being are always my priority. During each visit, I typically spend at least 30 minutes with your pets, with multiple visits available as needed. I’ll make sure they’re fed, get plenty of playtime, enjoy walks if requested, and receive lots of love, attention, and companionship while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your furry friends to see how I can help make your time away a little easier and give you peace of mind! 🐾❤️ During week days I do walks / feeding in the morning , have a potty break 12-1 and then come back 5-6 for a walk & dinner & another let out around 9ish. Typically it’s how the owners have their yards set up but I do multiple walks a day with the pups and lots of play time!

About: Hi, I’m Sandra! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for pets is something I love. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog is full of energy and ready for long walks and playtime, or your senior pet prefers a slower pace with extra patience and gentle care, I adapt to their individual needs. You can count on me to provide dependable care, regular updates, and plenty of love while you’re away. I’m a stay at home mom and have all the time in the world to spend with the pets in my care. I also enjoy gardening, baking, pottery, walks and spending time with my family. We have a doggie gate and big fenced backyard for your dog to run and play outside. Pets are welcome on the couch so we can all watch movies together. We don’t crate unless specifically requested by clients and we typically go on 2/3 walks a day.

Alex was an amazing, caring and considerate drop-in sitter for Willow during the time we were away. Willow looked fantastic upon return, and it was evident that she was well cared for. The photos and comments were appreciated and made us know that we had made the correct decision in choosing Alex as Willow's drop-in sitter. She is a kind, devoted animal loving individual, and it was a pleasure meeting her.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - York Terrace

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

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.

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.
