“Mckenzie was fantastic to work with and Chief enjoyed his stay and company of her pups. Mckenzie had great communication and kept me updated on Chief’s activity throughout the day, leaving me rest assured that he was doing just fine! I received several updates, photos, and even video of him enjoying his time. She offered my pup (who is older) the perfect amount of play, and rest. I hope to use her again!”
About: Hi, I’m Courtney! Your dog’s new dependable best friend. With 15 years of experience working with animals, I bring a calm, confident, and caring approach to every visit. I’m comfortable with all breeds, all sizes, and all personalities — from shy seniors to energetic puppies. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have dogs and guinea pigs at home, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and understood while keeping you updated every step of the way. Pet care is naturally built into my weekly routine. I plan my schedule around my drop-ins and walks to make sure every pet gets consistent, on-time care. I check in throughout the day, send updates, and make sure each visit has my full attention. On my days off, I’m even more flexible and can offer extra visit times. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine, make sure their needs are met, keep their space clean, and give them plenty of attention. I provide calm, consistent care and always send updates each visit.
About: I own and care for a 3 year-old medium goldendoodle. He is energetic and always ready to play with any dog or human around. I have 2 years of dog training experience, including basic obedience training, and basic trick training. I grew up with a Brittany, so I am very familiar with the personalities and instincts of hunting breeds as well. I stay at home with my one year old son, so I am available during the week days, and for extended stays/overnight boarding. We would love to care for your dog! I have a fenced in yard for the dogs to run. I will provide your dog’s food and any medicines or care routines on your provided schedule, to maintain your dog’s familiar routine while in a new environment. I am flexible with your dog’s preferred sleeping arrangements— I have a large crate and a medium sized crate available if your dog is a crate sleeper, but my dog is allowed on furniture, so I will provide whatever your dog prefers. Family-friendly, non-aggressive, fairly sociable dogs are preferred, no age preferences or restrictions. My toddler LOVES dogs and will certainly run up to hug or pet the dog.
“Janice looked after our dog for a few hours during which she even took a dog for a walk. This was dog's first stay with Janice and we will definitely reach out again. We appreciate you!”
About: I am just returning to this app. I used to full time dog walk and sit through my community in Hinesville, Georgia and I am now living back in Ohio, where I am originally from. I have been caring for cats and dogs my entire life. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs, especially as my dog has had heart disease, a collapsing trachea, and arthritis for years and requires every day medication and has to eat a special diet and help going up and down stairs. I know how to properly gently lift a dog that can not fully jump or climb on their own. My eldest and most loved passed last year at 13 years old. I got her when she was a puppy and I was 16 years old and fully trained her myself and helped her through her senior years. I am self employed and only work part time and I make my own schedule. I love spending time with animals and would love to spend time with yours weekly. I walk dogs to help them release energy or anxiety etc. unless the owner prefers drop ins where I let the dogs in the yard to play. I play with their favorite toys with them to help them use their energy. I feed them the correct amount they need and give them lots of pets, cuddles and affection. I make cats feel as comfortable and happy as possible
“My Cavapoo Tino enjoyed daycare with Beka and Ryan. Beka quickly responded to my request to book. And when I messaged her during the day, Beka was also quick to respond. . Beka sent me a photo. Drop off and pick up were easy. Tino was happy when we picked him up. There were no sign of stress. We would use Beka and Ryan again.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a child. I am always the first person friends and family call to take care of their dog’s because of how much I love animals and they know they can trust me to treat them the same as I would my own dogs. I have two dogs at home one is a Labrador retriever and the other is a Yorkshire terrier. I don’t currently have any other work so I am available throughout the day. I can come take care of your pet/pets during the school day while my 8-year-old son is at school. I've had dogs and cats my entire life. I can’t imagine a life without a pet. I will treat your fur babies as if they are my own. Our pets are our family and they should be treated that way!
About: I have loved animals ever since I was born. They are my favorite thing in life. I will treat your animal with the most love I can offer. I’m more of a stay-at-home person, so when I am committed to watching your pet, they will be well taken care of while in my care. I have a fenced in yard and lots of space for a dog to play in! I have 2 cats but they are very antisocial and won’t be a problem. I’m also a quick learner and a natural when it comes to pet care!
“Parisa took great care of my German Shepard. She provided plenty of exercise for him in her shaded backyard. He came home worn out every day which tells me that he had a great day with her. She also provided daily photos and updates via text. She is friendly and loved our dog while he was in her care.”
About: When I was about 8 years old my family got our first dog and helped my parents with basic training because it was fun, as a kid, to teach a dog how to shake and roll over. That's when my deep love for dogs began. Growing up I had a female Cocker Spaniel named Emily and a male Beagle named Fortitude. As I got older, I knew I wanted a dog of my own and when I was 20, I got a female lab mix and named her Tayla. She went EVERYWHERE with me and I trained her off leash unless we went on walks. She unfortunately passed in August 2024 due to a tumor. In February 2024, my beautiful dog Lenna crossed the rainbow bridge at the young age of 6, due to kidney disease. Loss is hard, but the memories we had and her heart lives within mine. I currently have a 2 year old female red Doberman named Maisie who is my service dog. Since I got her at 8 weeks old, she was also trained off leash unless on walks. She is a true Doberman being a Velcro dog which has made her become a wonderful service dog. I also have a soon to be 3 year old Belgian Malinois/Dutch Shepard named Reigny. She is high energy and loves to play, but also great during the day time to just hang out and sleep while I work. She is off leash and e-collar trained. She is friendly and loves snuggles, just needs to get to know someone first as she may bark a lot when you first meet her, especially in my home. I work remote full time for a therapy company, therefore I can generally adjust my schedule to be available for morning and afternoon appointments during the weekdays. Weekends I am generally open, especially in the summer months. Daycare can be in your home, I would just need access to Internet to be able to still work during the daytime. Leash manners are important, however I am more than willing to add that into walking/caring for your beloved dog. In home manners are also appreciated with not an excessive amount of barking or jumping, yet again, this is something I would be happy to assist with. Lots of attention, fresh water and meal times being met are important, especially when an outside caretaker comes in while the family is away. In my home or yours, I guarantee they will be care for like I care for my own girls! I will be certain to make sure your pet is not alone for too long when caring for them in your home and will always respect their responses upon my return.
About: My name is Emily. I am a very outgoing pet owner and lover! I have 2 sweet dogs and 2 Guinea pigs of my own! I work at a pet hospital and also love all animals and will care for/watch any caged animals or cats/dogs. I do offer some boarding so I can be home with my kids too and give your pet lots of attention. My schedule is very open and flexible. I live in Carlisle/Franklin Ohio. If you are in the area and looking for someone to be your pet sitter I may be the perfect girl for the job! I also will do house visits if needed. I will always keep communication open and can even send pics of your animal throughout the day too. Hope to hear from you soon!! At the moment my schedule is open every day. When I am working it is remote from home. I do weekends and any week day. Just let me know what dates you need. I am highly experienced with all breeds and their many different individual needs. I will do a meet and greet to make sure all needs will be met.
About: I’ve grown up on farms with many animals to include dogs and have raised them since I was young. Can’t wait to introduce myself to your fur baby’s and give them the love that they show us every day 😄 I’m currently in between jobs so my hours are flexible for your needs, always up for the exercise for a run or walk with your animals 😁 Currently only have a cat in a studio apartment so no space for a dog. My dog is back home in Ohio with my parents as I have no space here for him right now.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Astoria commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 OH 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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 619 sitters in Astoria, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
