“This was my first time using rover, and I acknowledge my puppy can be a lot, but from the first 30 minutes I drove off and got a picture (of Winnifred having zoomies in the backyard) I knew my pup was in amazing hands! Honestly they took all my fear and anxiety away and made the weekend stress free! Thank you again for everything!!”

“Kim was fantastic, and my dog was so happy at her house. Kim sent lots of photos, and communicated well. I am so happy with Kim’s services, and will be returning again soon. Thank you!”

“Marie took great care of Duncan. She welcomed us into her home for a meet and greet the week before his stay. She has great experience with dogs, big and small. Duncan settled in quickly. He got lots and lots of exercise and slept comfortably in her bed. Marie sent pictures and updates every day. Duncan loved his time at “camp”. Thank you so much for helping us and taking such good care of Duncan.”
“This is a great family home for my dog -- she loved boarding here. Aaron take all your special needs and indulgences into consideration and provides plenty of play opportunities. Just what my little doodle needs!”

“Lesley was great with Layah and took the time to make her comfortable. Would ten out of ten recommend. She was very responsive and sent updates.”

“My dog has never been happier besides me the pics I’ve seen made me feel so confident and comfortable with Rachel taking care of my baby boy he stayed active and she gave him the same level of care that I would have and khai her fur baby added the love to all the fun he had and in the pics she sent we will be seeing her again thanks for the love and care it is appreciated!!!”

“We could not have asked for a better sitter for our dog while we were out of town! Thomas took him on many adventures and sent photos every day showing us how he was doing and what they were up to. Highly recommend!!”

“Hollis was fantastic! This was our second stay and Scout had tons of fun and cuddles❤️ Traffic was bad to pick Scout up and Hollis was incredibly kind and understanding. Scout looks forward to staying with Hollis again!”

“She was amazing with max. Took him for rides, he played with other dogs and enjoyed being there alot. I will definitely be having her watch him again. She would send updates, videos, and pictures of max too.”
“This was the first time Sunny was cared for outside his own surroundings and his first time meeting a dog. Maria was very thoughtful about Sunny’s firsts. Sunny is an investigator and enjoyed all the opportunities for adventure with Maria and her family. Maria sent photos and messages throughout the week, which we appreciated. When we need another boarding opportunity we will absolutely contact Maria.”

“This was the first time I have ever left my dog with another person, and safe to say I wasn’t disappointed. Megan was an amazing sitter for my 60lbs pit-bull, Polar. He enjoyed my walks and cuddles during his stay. Megan sent many pictures and updates, and followed all the guidelines that we gave. Honestly, we could not have asked for better. Polar will indeed be back!!!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have cared for several family dogs over the years, including American Akitas and a Husky and Australian Shepherd mix. I’m comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I enjoy walks, playtime, and making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I recently graduated and am currently looking for a job, which gives me a flexible schedule during the week and on weekends. I have plenty of time to provide pets with attention, playtime, walks, and companionship. I enjoy making sure pets stay active, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I have a comfortable home with plenty of trees, nearby walking trails, and a river area where dogs can enjoy outdoor time. Since my yard is not fenced, I always use a leash and supervise dogs during potty breaks and walks to make sure they stay safe. I also have my own cat, Eartha, who is friendly and enjoys meeting people. I understand that every pet has their own personality, so I take the time to help them feel comfortable and follow each owner’s instructions to provide the best care possible.
About: Hello! My name is Ajani and I am senior here at Howard University. I am a caring, passionate and responsible person. Your Dog will be in safe hands as I will treat them with the love and caution as if they were my own. I will be careful to follow any instructions left behind. I enjoy walks or runs and I don't mind sticking to specific trails. I have experience with sitting both cats and dogs as I have had a cat for 10 years now and back home I used to walk my neighbors dog. Please let me know any information you think will be helpful to best make sure your pet and I will have the best time. Any triggers and anxieties will be helpful
“Lauren & Justin were wonderful with our dog! We received updates and pictures regularly and didn’t worry about him for a second! Overall, we felt he was being very well taken care of and we’ll definitely call them again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Clarkson
Mac is always spoiled when he goes to Jamie and Brian’s house. He has extreme separation anxiety and Jamie and Brian are there to make sure he is comfortable. I receive regular photos showing how happy and content Mac is. Thank you again for taking such good care of our boy.

Mac and Scout both had a great stay with Jamie and Brian. This was Scout’s first stay and he was settled in and comfortable after just a few hours. Jamie and Brian’s home is set up for dogs comfort and care. Mac and Scout enjoyed running around the fenced backyard and making friends with another dog who was staying there. Jamie and Brian are our preferred Rover sitters. It’s evident how much they love caring for dogs.

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 Clarkson 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 Clarkson.
<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 Clarkson 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.
