“Kelly was awesome for our girls first stay away from home. She updated me throughout our 3 days away so that I had peace of mind and knew they were being well cared for. They came home happy and tired! Thank you Kelly!”
“Used Charlette again and my pup had a great time! Longest I have been away and the daily pictures and updates were great. Vacation went better knowing he was in great care!”
“Nichole took great care of our pup while my husband and I took a weeks vacation. She was very welcoming when we took Gus to meet her, and it was clear to see that she loved animals. One of the pictures she sent us was of her dog and Gus on either side of her all snuggled up in front of the fireplace. We will definitely have Nichole watch our pup again.”
“I appreciated that Jessica sent photos of our pup and even tried to dress him up for Halloween. He looked so comfy and happy in the photos. Booking with Jessica is easy and out pup is always well cared for.”
“Loki loved his stay with Erica! Erica had a thorough meet and greet with us, asked great questions to make sure all parties felt comfortable. It was great receiving picture updates while I was away. Will definitely book with Erika again!”
About: As a fellow pet parent, I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone new. That’s why I treat every pet like part of my own little furry family—warm cuddles, silly moments, and all. Your pet’s happiness and comfort mean everything to me. I’m available for boarding pet care on the weekends mainly. Also, open to be flexible and accommodate special requests. Please message me with your questions. I have a smaller fenced yard for quick potty breaks throughout the day and take my own two doggies for regular walks in the neighborhood as well. A minimum of 2x per day, rain or snow.
“Crystal was great with our dogs! It was our first time using this site and having dogs away from home but she made us feel so comfortable and reassured us that they will have above and beyond what they need. She sent us pictures and updates regularly which made us feel even better! I highly recommend Crystal!”
“Sean and I refer to Michael as "Uncle Mike," because the second we walked through the door with our boys for the meet and greet - he made all four of us feel welcome and at home. Uncle Mike is a very special man with a heart of gold. He has a true gift for making dogs feel loved and comforted, and making sure they are cared for properly. While we were on vacation, he loved and took care or our boys as if they were his own. We got picture updates that melted our hearts and were completely at ease knowing they were in his care. We will GLADLY recommend him to anyone in the area for their dog sitting needs. We consider ourselves blessed to have found him.”
“Julio kept me informed and sent pictures of mango everyday if he had any questions he called I enjoyed my trip not worrying or stressing about mango he took very good care of her. Now I'm a regular and mango loves being with him.”
“Melissa and Gregory were incredible! This was our first time using Rover and they put us immediately at ease. They welcomed our rambunctious puppy into their home with open arms, making us feel confident that he would be well taken care of. He had some tummy troubles going on when we had to leave and they were so understanding, telling us not to worry. He made a mess in his crate one night because of this and they were so understanding, not bothered at all. They cooked up his brat diet (ground beef and rice) for several days until his stomach was working better. Leo came back to us healthy and happy. I highly recommend Melissa and Greg - they are just super!”
“Kendra was wonderful! Very communicative before booking and during the stay. Sent us lots of photos and updates. Dogs had a great time, briefly acknowledged us and immediately went to bed snoring away. Would definitely book again.”
“This was our first time using Rover.com and it was a great experience. Dan and Claryssa and their two small friendly dogs welcomed our big dog Dixey into their home. The dogs shared their toys and cozy couches with her. Dan played Dixies favorite rawhide game with her and Claryssa regularly sent us pictures of her adventures. During the two cold weeks we were gone it was a real comfort to know our dog was warm and well cared for.”
“Wonderful experience! Emmy is a warm and friendly person who took great care of our Collie. She was patient and flexible about drop off and pick up and is great with communication - sent us lovely pictures of our pooch. Highly recommended and we will definitely be coming back. Thanks Emmy!”
“Alexis was amazing! We received daily updates on our Genny girl. We have a very high energy dog & Alexis would play ball with her hours a day. Genny came home happy & healthy. We would definitely recommend Alexis to anyone looking for someone to watch their dogs!”
“We are so glad that we found Mary! She worked with us on short notice and was extremely flexible with the details of our booking. While we were away she sent us daily updates and photos that put us at ease and allowed us to truly enjoy our trip. She made our dog extremely comfortable, and even took her to the park when the weather allowed. Our dog also loved the company of Mary's sweet dog Maggie. We would absolutely book with Mary again!”
About: I've been working with, caring for and training dogs since 1993 when I got my first pup (an Old English Sheepdog) and read the Brian Kilcommons book "Good Dogs Great Owners". I've worked with dogs of many breeds, energy levels and ages. Trust your dog with someone who knows what he's doing. Fully fenced with two well-socialized house dogs to play with. I currently work from home part-time computer consulting/contracting. I have two dogs of my own so daily care of dogs is part of my normal routine. I provide calm assertive leadership and supervision. I provide exercise via walks or runs with the bike. I have walked as many as six dogs at once.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Akron Junction is $45
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Akron Junction
Danielle was extremely accommodating. When plans changed near the holidays, Danielle was there to save me! She was very understanding, kind and truly a lover of animals. I felt safe knowing she was in good hands. I loved that her backyard was completely fenced in and that there were other animals there to keep her company as well. I can’t wait to book with her again :)
I was nervous about leaving my dog for the first time. He is like Velcro with me so I was not sure how he would react being left somewhere he had never been. From the moment he got to Danielle’s he was off and running. Loved being with the other dogs and looked happy and busy in all of the pictures she sent throughout my time away. She took great care of him. Even though he was excited to see me he still looked like he could have stayed another week. She was awesome. Highly recommend her. Will definitely be using her as our regular sitter in the future.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Akron Junction can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Akron Junction home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Akron Junction.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Akron Junction. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
You and your Akron Junction sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
