“Adria was a great sitter for my cranky old boy Beetle! She let us meet at her home before the booking so that Beetle could get comfortable and she could understand his needs. She communicated great, sent pictures, and was kind and helpful. I would feel comfortable booking again with her any time!”
“William at his dog Piper were great host for my two dogs. Very nice place for the dogs to stay in a nice big safe backyard for the dogs to play in. Highly recommend.”
“Brittany is amazing! So sweet and gentle and calm... My Cairo loved her right away. It's the first time I have left her where she didn't pout upon my return. She was just so well cared for... More like doggy camp than like being boarded or kept anywhere before. She's definitely my new go to!”
“This was my first long trip away from my dog, Beetle, and Linda made it easy to be away without worry. She was responsive and communicative from start to finish, and sent excellent photos and updates throughout the days. She allowed us to meet up before the trip so that Beetle could be familiar with Linda and with the surroundings, which definitely helped put myself and Beetle at ease. Beetle came back relaxed and happy after his almost-week "vacation camp" at Linda's.”
About: What sets me apart is my hands on animal care experience and the amount of love I put into every pet I care for! 🐾 I have experience working in animal welfare and veterinary care, fostering animals, bottle-feeding babies, administering medications, and caring for pets with different personalities and needs. From energetic puppies who need patience and consistency to senior pets who need a little extra TLC, I’m comfortable adjusting my care to what each animal needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I never take that responsibility lightly. I focus on keeping their routines consistent, making them feel safe and comfortable, and keeping you updated while you’re away. As a pet parent myself, I understand that your pets aren’t just animals, they’re family! ❤️ Animals are already a huge part of my everyday life! Between caring for my own pets, my experience in animal welfare, and pet sitting, taking care of animals is something that comes naturally to me. I plan my schedule around my responsibilities to make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, love, exercise, and care. I’m big on keeping pets on their normal routines as much as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. 🐾❤️ I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs and their owner’s instructions. In a client’s home, I do my best to keep their pets on their normal routines, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and plenty of affection. I also make sure they have a clean, comfortable environment and send updates and pictures so you can feel at ease while you’re away! When caring for pets in my own home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and supervision while making sure introductions and interactions are handled appropriately. I have experience with dogs of different sizes and personalities, cats, puppies, senior pets, and animals who need a little extra patience or medical care. My goal is always to make your pets feel loved, safe, and right at home! 🐾❤️
“Kaitlin is a wonderful fur baby carer. She stepped & helped us in a last minute need we had. She had us over for a meet & greet so our pup could get used to her new surroundings. Our little girl ran back in the next day & was very relaxed there. Kaitlin sent photos & updates to make us at ease. She even had roommates who loved on her. I’d highly recommend Kaitlin.”
“Always a great experience with Say. She always gives daily pictures and videos of our dogs while they stay with her. She treats them like her own and they always come back to us happy and energetic and looking like they loved their stay and never wanting to leave.”

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.
97% of sitters in Cooperstown 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 Cooperstown 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 Cooperstown.
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 Cooperstown. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 Cooperstown 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 KY 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.
