“Even though this was short notice, Jillian was excellent with Ezra! She sent videos, photos, and updates about what was going on during the night and day. I felt at peace knowing my boy was in great hands. If you're looking for a responsible, loving, caring sitter, look no further.”
“Kathleen took excellent care of my chihuahua, Cody. Over the course of a month, I boarded him with her a few times each week, and I always felt confident he was in great hands. She was responsive, kind, and incredibly patient, not just with my (very energetic!) chihuahua 🙃, but with me as well. I’m so grateful for the care she provided and would highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
“Rocky clearly enjoyed his stay with his new friends, although happy to see me he clearly was upset leaving Bear, whined half way home and slept like a rock ! Thanks again to Mike and we will look forward to our next stay :)”
“We don’t let anyone else watch our French bulldog. David takes her for plenty of walks, gives her lots of attention, and makes sure she gets her medication. She’s very happy with David, as are we!”
“We used Carolyn again and she was exceptional as always. We received regular updates on the animals and lots of photos. Our furry family was very happy and well cared for while we were away.”
“It is such a relief to find a sitter for your dog and have peace of mind. This couple are a gem. We received a bunch of videos and pictures to show how much fun our dogs were having while we were attending an event. Highly recommend!”
“Natthinee is an awesome sitter! She communicates daily w an update and photos. My doodle got along w hers. Many walks. Snuggles on the couch😊 I will definitely have her watch Rudy again even though she’s a 30 minute drive away👍👍”
“I couldn't recommend Brigid enough. She was able to Cooper on EXTREMELY short notice, and he had such a great weekend. I had total peace of mind while I was away, and I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Definitely recommend Chris & Lindsey. This was my 1st time using Rover and I was nervous. They communicated with me frequently throughout the day and kept my mind at ease! If the need arises again I will absolutely book again with them”
“Brad and Mery were so great ! Cinco walked right in and relaxed. When I picked him up he was the same ! Brad and Mery were responsive during the booking process and were”
“Mary is the perfect Rover for us. We left Corby, our yorkie-mix with Mary and never worried once. We knew she missed her two little dogs and would spoil Corby. He had a great time in her fenced in yard and made himself right at home on the sofa and checking out the activity outside. A quiet country setting Corby will be visiting every time we go away. She sent us picture updates and notes.”
“I've never used Rover, Kate made it easy to understand the process. My dogs spent the day with her while we were on vacation. They went hiking and played in her yard with other dogs. They were exhausted for 2 days after. We are very grateful we were able to bring our boys camping for the week but have somewhere for them to go on the days we were not able to take them with us.”
“Lauren was very good with communication and updates throughout the stay. The pictures were a great addition. I will be using Lauren again for future vacations.”
“Samantha was wonderful to work with - sent lots of great updates on our pup throughout the visit and we felt totally at ease knowing Milo was in good hands. Definitely recommend Samantha!”
“Thanks so much for another great stay! Can always trust Tiffany to take the best care and go above and beyond. Thank you for the extra help with his nails. Appreciate you!”
“Anna was great. She accommodated a last minute booking. This was my first time leaving Louis with anyone. He really had a blast. She sent pictures and regular updates. I will definitely use Anna again- Thank You!”
“Both Julia & her husband are actively involved in taking care of the puppies. They have 2 fenced in areas for the dogs to run & play and a separate area for the dogs to sleep & play when they are not inside. Crates are provided, all the way to an extra, extra large!! After doing our meet-n-greet w/our dog & spending a long time asking TONS of questions, I had no reservations boarding our dog w/them. Boomer was excited to go there & came home happy, tired from playing & clean. Thank you for offering a a great facility. I highly recommend bringing your dog here :)”
“Addy is a wonderful sitter for my 3 yo old mini goldendoodle. She is very attentive and her home is nice with a beautiful fenced in yard. He got some treats and nice walks on nearby trails. She sent photos as requested. I would definitely book her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ballston Spa
Boarded my dog for 5 days. It was my first occasion to try leaving him. He appeared to fit in immediately. Maegan provided pics each day which helped reduce my own anxiety. I really had no idea of what to expect but she walked me through how the days would go with my dog and the other dogs being boarded. The real proof was how my dog would respond in the days after he returned. I feared he would be sad or depressed for leaving him. However, when he came back and was as happy as ever. To me that means he was cared for and enjoyed the other dogs. I would send him to Maegan for future stays.
John was the absolute BEST person we could ask for to watch our dogs. He kept us posted with daily pictures and activity updates, and went above and beyond to care for our boys. John will be our first call the next time we need someone to watch our pups. Thank you John!!
We had such a great experience with Taylor watching our dog Montie 🐾! She was kind enough to accept our request last minute for a longer stay, which we really appreciated. She sent us lots of photos and videos throughout our little guy’s stay and kept us updated -which gave us so much peace of mind. Most importantly, Montie seemed so happy when we picked him up! We would definitely have him stay with her again. ❤️🐾
We had a wonderful experience with Bailey watching Rip and Thor. She communicated well throughout their stay, kept us updated, and clearly took great care of them. She gave them good walks and played with them regularly, and it was obvious they enjoyed spending time with her. Both dogs were happy and comfortable the whole time. We would definitely book Bailey again and highly recommend her!
Samantha did an amazing job taking care of our dog penny. Samantha and her fiancée are really nice and welcoming people who communicate very well. My wife and I went out of town for vacation and we got lots of pictures and updates from Samantha on how penny was doing. Penny looked well taken care of and happy. Highly recommend

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.
