“David was amazing! He sent pictures of my dog during the day, updated me on what was going on, and even sent her home with treats! I will definitely be booking with him again.”
“Annie was great! She was super responsive and helpful. I dropped Parker off at Puppy Paws while visiting Storm King, which is conveniently about 5 minutes down the road. The shop itself is super cute and Parker was very well taken care of.”
“Weina was flexible with our drop off/pick up time for Finnegan which was much appreciated! She took our sweet pup out on three long walks over a 7+ hour period plus additional short potty and water breaks. She sent updates and photos throughout the stay. Quick to respond to our request and any additional outreach!”
About: Hi! I’m a passionate dog lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience fostering and caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. If it were up to me, every dog looking for a loving home would have a place in mine. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly love. Over the years I’ve had the privilege of looking after countless dogs, helping them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their families are away. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, and I take the time to earn their trust, learn their routines, and make them feel right at home. I’m experienced with basic training and positive reinforcement using treats, helping dogs build good habits while making learning fun. Whether it’s reinforcing routines, group feeding, administering lots of love and attention, or simply making sure they feel comfortable, I always put each dog’s needs first. I’m very active, so your pup can expect plenty of walks, playtime, trips to the park, backyard fun (including supervised pool time if appropriate), and, of course, lots of cuddles and affection at the end of the day. I treat every pet like they’re my own because I truly believe they’re family. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is safe, loved, and receiving the same care and attention they would at home. Whether you’re away for a weekend, a business trip, or need regular care, I’m here to provide a reliable, loving, and fun environment for your pup. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Since I have years of experience fostering and caring for dogs, my days already revolve around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, exercise, training, and giving each dog the love and attention they deserve. I enjoy staying active, so daily walks and trips to the park are something I genuinely look forward to. I also make time for cuddles, enrichment activities, and keeping pets on their normal routines so they feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. Caring for pets isn’t just a job for me—it’s something I truly enjoy every day of the week. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and energy level so they get the care that’s best for them. I also keep pet parents updated with regular photos and messages, so they can relax knowing their furry family member is happy and well cared for while they’re away.
About: If you enjoy working with someone, you must work with them. Again, and again and again that is how I feel when I’m around my Fur friends! I work full-time for the Department of Education, but I am available on the weekends and the entire summer to care for your Fur friend. I live in a house with a backyard and enough room for your furry friend to run and play. I will provide great services to ensure they are always happy and well-cared for

Our home is "Pooch-Proof" inside and out. I have a relationship with the rescue agencies who have approve my home for doggie care.
“We boarded our two dogs (1.5 yr old 75lbs mix and 11 year old Chihuahua) for two days, one overnighy. Leah was very accommodating, even when we added a second day last minute. She has a calm energy which helped with both our excitable puppy and small lap dog. She has a great fenced yard for the dogs to run around, she followed our instructions nicely and let us know about any concerns (even if small) when they came up. We appreciate her taking such good care of our two dogs so we didn’t have to worry about them at all!”
“Richard and Karen watched my dog Babs for 2 days while my partner and I were both at work. It was fantastic! They are such loving caretakers and each day Babs was well fed, played out and sleepy when she came back to me! Will definitely use them in the future whenever we need someone to watch Babs!”
“Daniela was really wonderful, attentive and patient and flexible. Goguma is still in his puppy phase and got to play with her dog. She checked in several times. I felt like Goguma was in great hands and look forward to future dates with Daniela.”
“Tara was amazing! She helped me out last minute and was super communicative the whole time. She sent regular updates and clearly cared about Finn—he loved being with her! So grateful to have found someone so reliable and kind. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Chloe is the best! She took care of my 10 month old puppy, Hazel, while I was at work for the day & Hazel had the best time! She loved running around with Chloe’s two sweet puppies who are so friendly and playful! Chloe sent me several updates, pictures and videos throughout the day. I could tell she made a special effort to help Hazel feel comfortable in her new environment for the day. Highly recommended, will be calling Chloe again for doggy daycare soon!”
“Maryline is amazing! It was my first time leaving my puppy all day, and she made it way easier than i thought. She is so sweet and caring and my pup felt comfortable right away. She sent so many pictures that made me feel as ease and her you could tell my puppy loved her sons, and they kept him playing and busy which tuckered him out. Highly recommend her for any of your fur babies needs. I know that she is now my #1 go to person for my little Theo!”
“Brenda saved my life! My husband had a business trip and 2 of my regular sitters were booked! She was wonderful with Grover, who can be stand offish but he warmed up to her! She took him on walks, he played in her yard and had a lovely stay. She is reliable and great with my dog!”
About: I have cared for dogs my entire life, including my own pets and those of family members. My experience ranges from energetic 8-week-old puppies to senior dogs, and from tiny teacup Yorkies to Labs, Newfoundlands, and Great Danes. I’m comfortable administering medication and adjusting care to each dog’s age, size, routine, and personality. Although I’m new to boarding through Rover, I work from home full-time, so your dog will receive plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship. Dogs are welcome to relax on the furniture, roam comfortably throughout the house, and enjoy supervised playtime in my fully fenced yard. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely at home while you’re away. I work from home full-time, so caring for your pet can easily fit into my daily routine. Dogs will have frequent opportunities for potty breaks, supervised time in the fenced yard, indoor play, rest, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Feeding, medication, walks, and bedtime routines can be adapted to match what your pet is accustomed to at home. Because I am home throughout the day, your pet will have consistent companionship and supervision rather than being left alone for long periods. I want every pet staying with me to feel safe, comfortable, and part of the household. Dogs are welcome to roam throughout the home, relax on the furniture, and enjoy supervised playtime in my fully fenced yard. I follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medication, activity, sleeping arrangements, and household rules so that the pet’s routine remains as familiar as possible. I also adjust care to each dog’s age, energy level, size, and personality—whether that means active play for a puppy, companionship for an adult dog, or a quieter and more supportive routine for a senior.
“Chris was very chill, cool, and communicative. We were only gone for a few hours at the nearby Storm King Art Center but got plenty of photos and our puppy looked happy. She was smiling.”
“Barbara is wonderful! She was open to answer any questions we may have had and we felt completely assured that our Laika was in caring and loving hands and she had great time taking walks in nearby park and spending the day in Barbara’s yard.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,410 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Cold Spring. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Cold Spring commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,410 sitters in Cold Spring, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
