âPolina is a nice intelligent person. I highly recommend her. I left my puppy for 9 nights and Polina kept in touch all the time about how my puppy is and what my puppy is doing. She really takes good care of my puppy, by walking him every 3 hours and feeding him as I asked her to. When I came to pick the puppy up, I found that the puppy was very happy, vitally joyful, and very active.â

âMeghan was awesome, she took great care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay, she's also a great photographer so you'd get nice shots of your pets, a 100% recommended.â

âAngela watched our almost one year-old golden retriever Brady for Memorial Day weekend. I received updates and pictures throughout the weekend. Brady had a great time and was loved and cared for. I would definitely recommend Angela and will be using her in the future.â

âAbsolutely awesome!! My two babies never had a sleepover before. She sent pictures throughout the two night stay and met videos of my boys being as happy and comfy as they are with us at home. When we picked them us, they were all relaxed just like we had family watch them. I recommend her 1000 times over again! Her little boy is the cutest bonus to their visit. Thank you!!â


âCassidy saved my life with a last minute booking for a 6 day boarding for my 2 year old Dutch Shepherd, Maple! I received pictures and videos daily, which my family and I enjoyed throughly. I was so relieved to find a trustworthy person and facility that did more than just feed and walk my dog twice each day. Cassidyâs expertise and experience with Dutch Shepherds was also a huge plus, given how high energy Dutch Shepherds are known to be. I will definitely be booking again in the future! Thanks Cassidy!â


âTia was great! So communicative, friendly, and most importantly kind and caring to our needy lil dachshund lol. Heâs got a touch of separation anxiety, and she knew just how to help him through it. Weâll definitely be back!â


âI left my almost 16 year old pug with Carrie and her husband while I traveled for 10 days to visit family. I know she was in great hands, sheâs usually a little nervous at first but ran right up her steps when I got there as sheâs been there before short term. Carrie sent me messages and pictures often enough. She got lots of outdoor time, was tended to her older age needs, and even got to sleep next to them as sheâs used to it at home. I feel very lucky to have found her through Rover and Iâd highly recommend her and her husband!â

âMargaret was Sooo amazing! Last minute bookingand a new to being boarded kitty. It was great I got to learn how my kitty would respond in such a healthy environment.â

âI canât say enough wonderful things about Becky and her sweet family. This was my first time using Rover, I was very nervous but right off the bat Becky made me feel super comfortable about everything. I left my Emma with them for almost an entire week and it seemed like she had a blast. Becky sent updates and pictures throughout the week and my girl got all the love and snuggles that we would have given her at home! They definitely treated her like their own âĄĚ I could go on and on but bottom line would ABSOLUTELY recommend booking with Becky, we definitely will be!â

âBooked last minute and was very accommodating. I needed a day sitter for my 2 labs and received pictures/ updates thought the day. My dogs had a great day and were well cared for. Would definitely recommend and book again in the future.â

âThis was our first experience using Rover and Irina. She is a sweetheart and clearly loves dogs! She was very accomodating and I think my dog was very comfortable there. I got pictures and updates to make me feel better about being gone and having my dog at a sitter. There was other dogs there as well and they all got along just fine! I would definitely use her again!â
âPaige did a great job caring for our 2 girls!!! She communicated with us daily, sending great pictures! They returned home very happy!! Thank you Paige! We will be return customers!â

âHuck loves his stays with Tracy and we are grateful that she takes such great care of our boy. This was the second time he has stayed with her and he will be visiting again soon :) Thank you, Tracy!â

âStaci took good care of my Bella while I was away for two weeks. She always responded promptly to my messages, and sent photos every few days to update me with Bellaâs activities. Thanks Staci!â

About: My background in early childhood education has taught me to be patient, observant, gentle, and attentive to individual needs. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I grew up with dogs my whole life and I rescued Blue who is very shy with people but loves other dogs and respects space if needed (especially seniors). He grew up with small dogs and is not pushy but rather wants to be chased. After having small dogs over and seeing how Blue interacts with them, I feel more confident and more than ready to register as a sitter. Im a bit of a high maintenance mom with Blue and I've experienced the thought of leaving him with someone while traveling, so I would love to help my fellow dog owners who are going through the same situation. Whether your dog needs play time, a calm companion, longer walks, or simply someone to keep them company, I want to make their time with me as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Most importantly, I treat every dog like one of my own. Pet care is a very important part of my daily routine, and I structure my day around the needs of the dogs in my care. I am flexible and able to adjust my schedule for walks, feeding times, playtime, and any special care instructions. I am home most of the day, which allows me to provide consistent attention, supervision, and companionship. Your dogâs safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions and keep you updated throughout their stay. The premises in where I live has a large area of grass and mini trails. So your pup can easily enjoy walks and fresh air. Thereâs also a dog park within the premises if your dog enjoys off leash. It is generally empty and I would not go in unless it is private and no other dogs in it.

âI am so grateful for the care that Ninja revived! Chelsea did a great job and Ninja felt right at home. I really appreciated the photos that were shared during his stay. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was well cared for. Highly recommended!â


âGinnie and I communicated almost every day about how the dogs were doing. When I arrived to pick them up, they appeared very calm and well cared for. I would definitely recommend Ginnie.â

âAmber was lovely and super attentive to Rizzo's needs before and during their time together! She sent plenty of pictures and updates and he seemed very happy to play with Kegan the whole weekend. Will definitely look to send Rizzo her way again!â

âAmanda did a wonderful job watching our two pups while we were out of town. She met all their needs and gave them their pills while we were away. They were able to get plenty of exercise and love. She kept us updated and we felt comfortable the whole time that they were in great hands and getting lots of love and attention. 10/10 recommend and we will absolutely use her again!â

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 dogâs regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
97% of sitters in Bernhards Bay can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dogâs 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 dogâs 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 Bernhards Bay 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 Bernhards Bay.
Tip: You can upload your dogâs 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 Bernhards Bay. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% 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 Bernhards Bay sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of youâand 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 dogâs vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitterâs 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, youâre 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. Youâll 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.
