“Ocean had such a great stay while I was away! I got tons of videos, photos, and updates throughout my trip, and she looked so happy and comfortable the entire time. She ate well, slept well, and clearly had an absolute blast. She came home completely exhausted from all the fun, which is always a great sign! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well taken care of while I was gone. Would absolutely recommend!”
“April and her husband are amazing! Great communication and I received quality pictures and videos! The updates made me feel at ease. I could see that Mei Mei was enjoying herself and learned that she’s a natural guard for babies?! I appreciated the attentiveness and care they gave to her. Thank you for being flexible and patient with me as I adjusted the drop off time and ended up experiencing a delay en route. 🙏🏽 I would definitely book again and have peace of mind knowing she was well taken cared of. Good energy and dog lovers for sure. Definitely worth 🐾 - pawsing and considering. 😆 Thank you again! 🌼”

“Armando did an amazing job taking care of our 3 dogs. He was very responsive from the beginning and kept us updated throughout the entire stay with messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind. You can tell he genuinely cares about the dogs and makes them feel comfortable. When we picked them up, they were happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. We would definitely trust him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
“Heather is excellent. She is responsive and communicative, and she cares about keeping your dog safe, comfortable and happy. She sent notes and photos about their days, and I could see that my boy was relaxed and enjoying his stay. I highly recommend Heather.”
“My cat is always skittish at the beginning of boarding or any routine changes, but I could see how content and playful she looked in the photos and videos Cayley sent. I think she enjoyed the small family environment and was given everything she needed. Thank you for taking in Smoke when other plans didn't work out! We're glad to expand her circle of caregivers.”
“Dawn & her family were incredible! She was able to accommodate a last minute schedule change & saved our weekend getaway. Emmett had so much fun with her dog as well & came home ready to sleep the rest of the day away. I would highly recommend her to any pet owners who need a sitter.”
“Erika is a wonderful dog sitter! We have left our pup with her several times and do not plan to go to anyone else. She is clearly great with dogs, sends pictures and updates daily, and my shy little dog is always excited to go back.”
“Ryan & Abbey are great!! They are very responsive and they keep me updated with videos and pictures through out the day. I also love how flexible in schedule they are. This is my 2nd time booking with them and plan on doing any future bookings with them. They have a spacious backyard and I’ve been lucky they have had other playful dogs that get along with my pup which makes it a great time for my puppy.”
“Ziggy had a great time with Arthur & Hayley! We received lots of updates throughout the stay, and they were very communicative during the entire process. Easy decision!”

It really gave me peace of mind knowing they were safe, happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Wow. If we could rate Stanislava and Mario 10 stars, we would! We boarded our Husky for a couple days and they took great care of her. They took her on walks and shared photos and videos of our Husky having a great time with the other doggies. Their backyard is big and provides plenty of space for the pups to run around and have fun together. Plenty of toys, good doggie company, and great communication from Stanislava and Mario. We picked up one happy dog, that’s for sure! I would definitely recommend!”
“Amorn and Adam are great with our dog Leo. Leo seems to be right at home with them, and we really appreciate all the adorable photos they send! We are very grateful to have found people we can our trust with our dog and look forward to his next visit!”
“We could not be happier that we found Dodi. She provided us numerous pictures and information on how our Molly was doing. It was evident how happy Molly was there and we felt she was being cared for very well. When we arrived to pick up Molly, Molly gave us a great welcome but also went back to Dodi wagging her tail and wasn't in a rush a leave. Wonderful experience! We will definitely use Dodi again.”
“Lizet was wonderful with bear. She gives you updates and photos/ videos on your pet which it really appreciative of. She treats your pets like they were her own. Bear felt comfortable with lizet and you can tell she enjoyed her stay with lizet. Bear found her forever sitter and new friends 😁💙”

I also really appreciated her flexibility when I needed to extend the stay by a few hours. She’s an amazing sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Silvana and her family are amazing. My little pup, Ayla, is a rescue and she gets very skiddish around new people. I was nervous to leave her overnight, in fear that Ayla would be stressed and have separation anxiety...but she absolutely love staying there. Silvana sent pictures of her playing and having a great time! Ayla was so happy! Thank you for being so kind and flexible! ❤️❤️”
“Renata is amazing. This was my first rover experience and I was cared to drop off my anxious dog. Once I met Renata I felt super comfortable to leave my Lily. I highly recommend and will definitely come when needed. Thank you Renata!”

First of all Ayni and Alfonsus are such a welcoming, friendly and kind couple. They were so sweet with my dog and treated him like his own child from the moment they met him. He was pampered beyond imagination which I am eternally grateful. Nervous, anxious dog no more after such a wonderful time with them! ❤️ truly appreciate them and the care and consistent communication throughout our time away! I can’t recommend them enough 🙌🏾🥰 I now need to find a way to make my dog understand he has to come back home 🤣❤️ thank you again for everything!!!
Our experience with Zenia was great from start to finish. She is responsive and a good communicator. My 6-year-old puppy has always stayed at my daughter's when I go out of town and I needed a sitter who could make him feel at home. I could see from the photos, (which Zenia sends daily,) that he relaxed right away and enjoyed snuggling, walking, and being with her dog Misty. Highly recommend!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
94% of sitters in Cornell 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 Cornell 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 Cornell.
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 Cornell. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Cornell 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 CA 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.
