“Yaina was AMAZING! She took care of our dog like it was own. We got plenty of pictures while we were away which made us smile. We will definitely use her again. Rosie our dog had the best time!”
“I had to make a last-minute trip and urgently needed an overnight stay for my pup. I quickly found Daniel through the app, and he was incredibly responsive and accommodating. Upon meeting him, I was impressed by his friendliness and the thorough walk-through of his backyard, which resembled a gated mini-farm. My dog was absolutely fascinated by the chickens and rabbits; we could barely pull him away! Daniel kept me updated with photos throughout the day, making me feel reassured. By the end of the day, it was clear that Kylo had become part of Daniel's family. I can’t recommend him enough! Kylo has truly found his second home with Daniel.”
“We could not have been happier with the care and attentiveness from Vanessa and her family. We left our dog with them for almost a week and received updates pictures, and videos each day. We would definitely rebook with Vanessa in the future!”
About: My dog Winnie is 17, so I’ve had lots of experience as a pet carer! Even though Winnie is a small dog, I have experience pet sitting and walking large dogs. I also love cats and have welcomed them into my home to cat sit over the last several years. I work as an independent artist and bartender, so I have a flexible schedule that gives me availability to take care of your furry friend or feline when you’re working! I am available morning, evening and night on weekdays and morning and afternoons on the weekends. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet by following their routine closely and giving them plenty of attention, care, and supervision. I understand how important trust is when caring for someone’s pet, and I treat every animal with patience, responsibility, and love.
“Caroline was amazing with our pup! Not only was she able to fit us in last minute when we were in a pinch, but she made my pup feel so at home in her home while we were out of town. Not having to worry about your pup while you’re out of town because you know they are being cared for and loved by someone makes it so much easier to go away.”
“Heeyoung was a wonderful and caring sitter. This was the first time leaving our dog and she made us feel very comfortable and provided great updates so we can enjoy our vacation.”
“Consuelo and family take such great care - we booked for 3 different times in the week. and yes, our puppy keeps asking, "When are we going back?" Highly recommend!!!”
“Amazing! Rafaelina was extremely accommodating last minute. Her love and support was incredible and the space provided for our pup is superb. She treats your pet like her own and your pet will have a blast.”

“Anner did an amazing job with my dog Leo. Updates and responses were quick and consistent. The enviroment is loving and nuturing. My dog Leo loved playing in the fenced in backyard. I would definitely use Anner again as well as recommend Anner to other friends and colleagues.”
“Tina and Jon went above and beyond to ensure we felt completely at ease leaving our 5-year-old Italian Greyhound in their care while we traveled to Canada. They provided consistent updates throughout our entire trip, sending a plethora of videos and photos that kept us connected to our pup. The fenced-in backyard was a fantastic perk, and we loved seeing all the adventures she went on with them. If you are looking for a five-star pet sitter, Tina and Jon are the ones for you!”
“Margaret took excellent care of our senior dog while we were traveling. She was very attentive to his needs and made him feel very comfortable while we were away. She even graciously agreed to extend his stay for a couple of days when our flight home was canceled. I highly recommend her services!”
“Diane did an amazing job looking after our two cavalier king Charles spaniels. The day she picked them up, one of our dogs had gotten into something the night before and was sick. She generously offered to make him rice and chicken from scratch until his appetite for his normal food returned. She frequently updated me throughout their stay and took amazing care of them. Highly recommend!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Centre Island home-away-from-home, 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 Centre Island.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Centre Island 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 , 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 .
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.
