“Jessica and her family were so great with my little girl I’d use them again and again! Great communication. Super understanding. Felt so safe and comfortable. I can’t thank them enough!”
“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!”
“Alena is great with our 2 pups. In all their pictures they look happy and are enjoying their stay. We wounder if they like it there so well that they might not want to come home. But no worries, they were very happy to see us. We recommend Alena & Regina to any one who needs to board a dog.”
“Our 12 yr old dog, Otis, just spent 13 days with Jessie and seemed to do fine. The setup (large fenced-in yard and Jessie working from home) gave Otis the blend of care, attention and freedom he needs.”
“Kiara & Yves, did such an amazing job with my little kitty. She was so well cared for and the sitter was super responsive sending many nice updates and photos of Lottie. I would recommend their services to anyone who was looking for a sitter!”
“I enjoyed working with Annalisa and my dog liked staying in her place. A large backyard is the right fit for my big pitbull. My pet was treated with love and attention. Will definitely leave my pop with them again and recommend to others.”
“My puppy was so happy at Courtney space! And I appreciate Courtney was doing a wonderful job sending me photos of my puppy. I will definitely reach out to Courtney for taking care of my baby doggie again. 100% recommend her!”
“Anthony did a great job taking care of my pup. She can be shy and fearful in new situations and Anthony did a great job to keep her calm and comfortable. She enjoyed playing with his dogs, Yoki and Canelo. I enjoyed receiving updates and pictures of my pup while I was away which helped me feel at ease. Anthony is calm, reliable and welcoming. I plan to use his services again when I need them.”
“Dana and Jeremy were great! They are so good to my dog and he loves them. He gets excited when we pull in their driveway. I feel relaxed because I know he is in good hands!”
“Courtney is fantastic. She is clearly extraordinarily knowledgeable and is extremely adept at making dogs feel comfortable in her home. This was Chauncey's first extended boarding stay and she ensured that he was very comfortable and happy the entire time. Courtney is quick to respond to messages and was very flexible when it came to drop off/pick up times. I cannot recommend Courtney enough to anyone looking for a reliable, dependable, and courteous sitter!”
About: Hi! I am here to make your life easier with taking care of the needs of your pets. I love animals and you can count on me to take care of them like they are my own. I am happy to care for your animals on evenings and weekends. They are always welcome to stay with me at my place as well. I live in a community where there is a dog park, plenty of walking areas and lots of other dogs. I will treat your home and pets like they are my own.
“Deanna communicated great with us throughout our booking. Her dog and Roxey loved playing together. We really enjoyed getting the photos and updates as well. Would definitely recommend!”
“It was the 1st time, and I'm very happy with Leah. When I was dropping off my dog, I knew that my dog would love her. Leah kept giving me updates constantly. I definitely trust Leah with my dog and will rebook with her again.”
“We entrusted Cuddles to Miranda for a few hours. She kept us updated with adorable photos, which put our minds at ease and made us feel so relieved to leave our precious Yorkie in her hands.”
About: Hi, I'm Sam and I've had dogs in my life since childhood. I have two rescues that I adopted at ten weeks. They both have big, incredibly different personalities that have given me plenty of experience, especially after my son was born in 2019. I have always loved animals, and decided to use Rover after a friend was out of town and had a client she asked me to assist. She raved about pet sitting and I really enjoyed it. I love meeting new pets & people, & look forward to helping you have stress free time away wether that’s for an overnight vacation, or drop ins or walks to give you peace of mind when you can’t be with them. I treat all of my animal clients as if they were my own, and am highly accommodating to pet parents. If you have any questions or concerns, please ask! I am willing to work with your situation as best I can 😊 I currently have very flexible availability and can be with your pet as much or as little as you need! I have care arrangements for my pets & son, so it can just be me and your pup! I am happy to follow whatever routine you currently do to keep the disruptions to your pet minimal including crating, walks, or any requests you may have.
“I was very nervous at first leaving our Lucy with anyone again since she had a bad experience with another boarding place but with meeting Alexis, she made me feel immediately comfortable. Throughout the boarding process she was very communicative and even sent pictures and videos of Lucy having a good time with her kids and family. If I ever need another sitter I absolutely will be using her again!”
“First time my young dog stayed at a private home, and so there were an issue or two. Vidya dealt with them like a pro. She kept me informed and sent photos so I knew my dog was smiling and having fun.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always brought me a great deal of joy. Now that I’m retired, I have the time and flexibility to give your dog the attention, companionship, and care they deserve. My home is a calm, welcoming place where your dog can feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family. I understand that every dog is different, with their own personality, routines, and little quirks. I’m happy to follow your instructions and keep your dog’s normal routine as much as possible. Whether your dog loves a good walk, a cozy nap, a little playtime, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll be there to give them plenty of affection and companionship. Most of all, I want you to feel comfortable knowing your furry family is being cared for with patience, kindness, and genuine love. I know how much our dogs meant to us—they truly are family. I would be honored to welcome your dog into my home and treat them as one of my own while you’re away. As a retired caregiver, I’m home all day and can give your pet plenty of attention and companionship. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent care, regular walks and playtime, and plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I enjoy having pets as part of my daily life and take pride in making sure they feel happy, safe, and comfortable. I offer care in your home or at my quiet, dog-free home. For dogs, the day can include daily walks, playtime, fetch, cuddles, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I’m happy to care for puppies through senior dogs and will follow your pet’s normal routine, including meals, medications, and rest time. There are no children or other pets in my home, making it a calm and peaceful environment. My goal is for your pet to feel like part of the family while you’re away!
About: Recently lost my 14 year old corgi named Penny. The house feels very empty and since I’m not looking into getting a new dog I thought dog sitting would be a nice option to try. Fenced yard, hardwood floors, easily divided up rooms if needed. I work Monday - Thursday 7:30-5 but if needed would be able to come let a dog out during lunch. I love dogs and would treat any animal as if it was my own. I work Monday - Thursday 7:30-5. Able to come home during lunch to let a dog out if needed. My evenings are very open and can be dedicated to the dog I am watching. Fenced yard, no children or dogs in the home. There is an inground pool but dogs will be monitored. No neighbor dogs on either side to cause dog stress or barking

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 .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
