“Aimee was amazing with our baby Bacon! She sent updates and pictures daily and made sure he was happy and well cared for during his visit. We WILL be returning for all future boarding as long as she will have us ? absolutely incredible and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Thank you again Aimee!”
“Mackenzie did an outstanding job caring for my dog Kobe. I was very pleased with the quality of care and found her to be reliable and trustworthy. She sent me regular updates on Kobe's situation which kept me happy knowing he was in good hands. I would go to her again in the future.”
“My number 1 choice when it comes to leaving my doggo anywhere. Constant contact, pictures, funny videos. Flexibility. My dog has only stayed once but that's all I needed to decide that Alex and Bethany are the perfect people. Thank you guys!”
“David was amazing! He was super accommodating about a last minute booking, and sent lots of sweet pics of my pup having fun and getting loved on. He came back tired from all the playing and fun he had.”
“I have found a solid option for bookings for my pup Blaze. Luke, his wife and their 2 pups took great care of my guy. It looks like he had a great time staying with them and being part of the family for the day. I will be booking with them very often.”
About: I grew up around animals. I have taken care of my own dogs, cats, rabbits and fish throughout my life. I have also taken care of friends pets when they’ve gone out of town. I am comfortable with large and small dogs, cats, and caged animals. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time for your pets. I have a 4yr old who is comfortable around animals and I am available for boarding if your animal is comfortable with men, women, and children. I live on a quiet street in an apartment and look forward to walking with your dog at my home or yours. I am comfortable working with multiple kinds of collars and leashes.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life! Growing up with both Pomeranians and German Shepherds gave me experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m a nurturing, patient, and responsible person who genuinely loves animals. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, cuddling, or simply keeping your dog company, I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have two children, ages 14 and 5, and we enjoy having animals around. I don’t currently have pets of my own, so your furry family member will receive plenty of attention and affection! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make time for your furry family members. I’m available for boarding, drop-in visits, and dog walking, including weekdays and weekends. I can accommodate different routines and will make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I provide a loving, clean, and comfortable home environment where dogs can feel relaxed and welcome. I have two children, ages 14 and 5, so I welcome dogs who are comfortable around children. I believe in maintaining familiar routines, providing plenty of supervision, and keeping owners updated with pictures and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and have enjoyed caring for the dogs of family and friends over the years. I’m a full-time registered nurse, so I’m naturally attentive, responsible, and compassionate. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I enjoy providing plenty of love, playtime, and companionship. I would be honored to care for your furry family member and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m a full-time registered nurse at a hospital and work three 12-hour shifts per week, which gives me a flexible schedule with plenty of availability on my days off and weekends. I love spending my free time with animals and am happy to accommodate different schedules and pet-care needs. Whether you need weekday visits, weekend care, or overnight boarding, I’m open to working with you to find what works best! I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex that welcomes animals, and I currently don’t have any pets of my own. This allows me to provide a comfortable, calm environment with plenty of space and attention for your furry friend. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and making sure every pet feels at home. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routines, provide updates and photos, and accommodate their individual needs to help them feel safe and comfortable.
“Kelsey and her family were AMAZING with Buck! We got photo and video updates the whole weekend. She was very reassuring when I was so anxious about leaving him for the 1st time. Kelsey even slept with Buck on the couch his 1st night to help his restlessness. I really can't say enough great things about how awesome our 1st time using Rover and Kelsey was! Thanks again for being so great to our boy!”
About: I have taken care of many dogs throughout the years. I have had multiple dogs growing up, as well as fostering for a local Rescue for 9 years now. I have dealt with multiple breeds, sizes, and ages. 🐾 I work part-time and our teenage kids get home around 2:30. So on longer shift days they still have an option for midday potty breaks. We have a 6ft tall kennel area or a lot of land to explore, on leash. Also have a cable run. Will never have an unknown dog off leash.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 Carlton 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 Carlton 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 Carlton.
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 Carlton. On Rover:
- 94% 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 Carlton 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.
