“I’ve used Amanda several times for our Remi! She is great with our dog and tires her out well! Remi is comfortable there and loves being social with her other dogs. We will continue to use Amanda as long as she is available! We love having a familiar home our dog can go to whenever we travel.”

About: I am from a very rural town so I've been around animals all my life. Growing up we had 2 cats and a large dog that were primarily my responsibility as my siblings are much younger than me. I worked at an office that had 2 dogs and MANY foster cats amd kittens that I helped take of. I have also pet sit my friend's large dog whenever she goes away for the weekend or for a vacation. I have previous experience here on Rover caring for an elderly large breed dog with limited mobility. I have also taken a veterinary science course and am very comfortable having to administer medications or treatments that are needed. I'm currently working part time in Binghamton. I'm in town Sunday-Wednesday every week and am willing to be flexible on the weekends. I work in an office downtown near Court St Mondays and Tuesdays 9-5 with an hour break where I can do checkins or short walks. I can also adjust the schedule slightly if needed. Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays I am typically out of town, but that's not always the case. I'm always open to talk through my schedule on a case by case basis! I'm very open to instruction. I think owners know their pets and their routine best, so just let me know how you want the visit to look and I will make it happen!

About: I have taken care of a variety of pets for a majority of my life for friends/family. In addition to having experience with pet sitting, I also have one of my very own! I have grown up around all different kinds of pets throughout my whole life and always love having them around. I have a dachshund who is so friendly with all types of dogs/people and loves the extra company and I have two little girls who are also just as obsessed with pets as I am! I currently work full-time from home while also being a stay at home mom so I am typically always home so I can ensure your pet will never be lonely in this house! I plan on treating your pets as if they were my own and will do whatever is needed to make your little one feel comfortable and loved! 💕

“My pup's stay with Leane was exceptional. The communication was very much appreciated as she was very responsive. She and her husband both were attentive to my pet. He's a nervous little guy, so I know they exercised him and cared for him like he was their own. I would highly recommend and use Leane's services again!”

About: I have always had a way with animals. They seem able to feel the peace and caring in me so that aren’t afraid.I am personable and genuinely care for people and animals . I am 58 years old and have extra time to take care of your pet. I don’t work a full time job anymore so I am available mostly anytime I am needed If you need me to stay in your home to care for your pet, I am respectful of your house and everything within it. I own my house and know the anxiety of leaving someone you don’t know in your home wondering what your home will look like when you get back. Your home will look exactly the same as it did when you left. Possibly even clear than when you left.

About: I have worked with animals all my life from having them growing up to caring for them for other people. I am willing to accommodate any situation! I am currently working part time hours at my job but I have lots of availability and can accommodate pretty much anything! I’d love to get to know your fur babies! My mom and I have a fenced in backyard and a very nice neighborhood for walking if you plan on having your pets stay with me. We are occasionally doing this together since I work part time already she is also very pet friendly. I am very vigilant on making sure they get there play time in and walks.

We came in from out of town and found Daylin on Rover. It was our first time using Rover and Daylin was great with Parker. We picked Parker up and she was great and happy. We also received a few pictures while she was staying there as well. We will for sure use her again on our next trip.

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 .

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. 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.
