Pet Service Licensing in New Rochelle

Westchester County Dept. of Health — Animal Control & Veterinary Licensing
(914) 813-5000|Official Website

Veterinarians must hold a NY State license issued by NYSED Office of Professions — verify at op.nysed.gov. Pet stores and breeders require a license from the NY Dept. of Agriculture & Markets at (518) 457-3502. Boarding kennels and pet daycares are licensed at the municipal level and inspected by local animal control. Dog groomers do not require a state license in New York (industry self-regulated). Dog walkers do not require licensing in Westchester County (NYC requires a license, suburban counties generally do not). Pet sitters are unregulated. Always verify any provider's credentials independently.

Frequently Asked Questions

1How much does pet sitting cost in New Rochelle?
Pet sitting in New Rochelle costs $25-$125 per visit/night. Drop-in visits (30 min) run $20-$35, and overnight stays in your home are $75-$125/night. Holiday rates are typically 1.5x standard pricing.
2What is the difference between pet sitting and boarding?
Pet sitting means a caretaker comes to your New Rochelle home to care for your pet in their familiar environment. Boarding means your pet stays at a facility. In-home sitting is ideal for anxious pets, senior animals, or multi-pet households — plus someone is checking on your house while you travel.
3How do I find a reliable pet sitter in New Rochelle?
Ask for references, check Google reviews, and verify they are insured and bonded. Professional New Rochelle pet sitters should do a free meet-and-greet to learn your pets' routine. Ask about their backup plan — the best sitters have a network of backup sitters to ensure your pet is never left without care.
4What should I include in instructions for my pet sitter?
Prepare a written sheet covering: feeding schedule and exact portions, medication names, doses, and timing, your vet's name and number, the nearest 24-hour emergency animal hospital, your cell and a backup contact, any behavioral quirks (fear of thunder, door-darting), where leashes, food, and first aid supplies are kept, and your WiFi password. Write down the ASPCA Animal Poison Control number (888-426-4435) — it is the fastest resource if your pet ingests something unknown. The more detail you provide, the more confidently your New Rochelle sitter can handle unexpected situations.
5What certifications should a pet sitter have?
Look for pet sitters certified through Pet Sitters International (PSI) or the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters (NAPPS). Both organizations require members to carry insurance, pass a pet care exam, and commit to continuing education. PSI and NAPPS sitters can also complete Pet First Aid and CPR certification — a valuable credential for anyone caring for your animals while you are away. Certification is not required in Westchester County, but it is a meaningful signal of professionalism.
