“gabe is great! super attentive with photo updates and texts. maggie hadn’t stayed with a sitter for a couple of years, but she seemed to settle in with gabe and the pack just fine. i love that he has a nice big yard for the dogs to roam and that maggie was allowed on the furniture to snuggle after a day of play.”
“Jennifer, Thomas and their girls took such good care of our pup. They sent frequent updates and photos throughout the visit, and we could instantly tell how comfortable our dog was in their home. Cannot recommend them enough!”
“Kimberly took excellent care of my little cavalier puppy Rudy🐶. It was his first time away from me and she updated me with messages and pictures. I was able to enjoy my trip knowing he was well taken care of with kindness & love. He bonded with her & I will definitely be requesting her services in the future!”
“Donna and her husband were both great. Very thoughtful and generous with Dakota. She has three dogs of her own and they were very well behaved and welcomed Dakota in. Thank you so much!”
“Very pleased to add another glowing review: this was the first stay for our energetic young cat Bella w/ Maria, her caring family, and resident cats and canines. Maria has a particularly good arrangement and process for gradually acclimating guest cats to a residence, especially one with other felines. As the only pet in our household, Bella's very curious about other cats. The updates and photos show that she was enjoying the run of the house within the first couple days and getting along with the other cats and dogs. It says a lot about the family's skill in creating a comfortable atmosphere for their own pets and boarders alike. Highly recommended.”
“We are so grateful for the amazing care you gave Cloud while we were away! You went above and beyond—keeping us updated the whole time and sending the sweetest pictures that truly put our mind at ease. It was clear he was in great hands. Til next time!”
“Bea’s stay with Mildred and her family was all I could have hoped for and more. They took good care of Bea and loved her like she was their own. Mildred also kept in constant contact and gave me updates and pictures of Bea the entire time. I will 100% use them again knowing I can trust my baby is in the best hands. I can’t thank Mildred and her family enough! You should definitely book your dog to stay with her!”
“My two dogs had a great first stay with Jeff. Communication was excellent as were the pictures I received. Drop off and pick went smoothly. I’m happy to have found Jeff and will be a repeat customer!”
“Jacqueline is an absolutely amazing dog sitter! Took fantastic care of my dog, Koda, and took so many pictures, which I really appreciated. He was treated like her own, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I currently own an amazing certified Good Boy Austalian Cattle Dog and two snuggly cats. I have have always owned at least one pet, both cats and dogs since I was little. I have done a decent amount of pet sitting for neighbors and friends. I have even had to give oral meds to one dog I dog sat. If you have any questions, please ask! Dogs will always get at least a 15 minutes walk because my dog usually needs a longer one. I sometimes give my cats and dog breakfast and then usually give the dog a quick 15 walk in the morning before leaving for work at 7:30 am. I get back home around 3:00 pm and usually give my dog his actual long walk between 40 and 70 minutes depending on weather. I feed the animals and then have dinner and usually just relax and snuggle on the couch with at least one of the fur kids. I fit in other cleaning and what not in there but I always make it a point to walk my doggo and make sure they get snuggles since I am gone for a good portion of the day. I have room for a crate for a crate trained dog. I have a moderately sized backyard that is well fenced in. My dog is a counter surfer so we have baby gates for both the kitchen and the extra bedroom. The extra bedroom serves as the cat room so the cats have a dedicated space. Stuff can be adjusted if you have a cat not used to dogs, so they can have that entire room or vice versa our cats can go in there for a dog that is not cat friendly. We only live five minutes from Marbletown Animal Hospital of any emergencies arise needing urgent care if your vet is not available.
“Thayla was an outstanding dog sitter! She kept me updated regularly about Khloe, and was always quick to respond to messages, which gave me great peace of mind. Khloe warmed up to her immediately, and I could see how much Thayla genuinely cares for animals. She made sure to stick to Khloe’s routine. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely book her again!”
“Chaqutia looked after my pup, Ralph, for just over a week. I was nervous about leaving him for such a long period of time especially as he was unwell. Chaqutia put my mind at ease instantly and sent updates multiple times throughout the day of both photos and videos as well as a report of how he did with his food and confirming he took his meds. Any questions I had or suggestions I made, she responded to promptly. She’s a very kind and caring person and also very responsible with things like a camera set up in the room dogs sleep in to check on throughout the night. She was flexible with both pick up and drop off times and really listened to our needs Her home is beautiful, large and on a very quiet secluded road which was reassuring as less traffic. Her family are truly lovely and her eldest child played with Ralph lots (particularly loved those videos) Would definitely use Chaqutia again and recommend her to others!”
“Denis wa a godsend. I was diagnosed with cancer and needed to be in city for over 3 weeks my husband wanted to stay with me. So on short notice he was able to fill in the days that friends and family could not and stayed flexiable to add additional days for me. Bella had fun and made a new friend with his dog. We will.use him again.”
“My Fur son had a wonderful time. They kept me updated with videos from time to time with him doing well which was definitely a plus. I could see he was well care for and loved for the over two week stay and I will have to list them as one of my go to sitters for now on.”
“I highly recommend Amanda! This was my first time using Rover as well as my 5 year old dog's first time staying with anyone other than family. Amanda was great with communication from the beginning and reassuring throughout the whole process from initial contact to setting up a meet and greet to regular updates while we were away. My dog took to her right away and felt very comfortable with her throughout her stay as seen by cuddling pictures and happy outdoor time. I feel so fortunate to have found a reliable and trustworthy sitter.”
“Rosalie is fabulous and Brinkley had a wonderful time. We did one overnight and got the cutest pictures while we were away. Brinkley thrives with easygoing energy and Rosalie's space and personality were exactly that. Thank you for having Brinkley, we'll be back!”
“Volha was GREAT!! She provided daily updates and pictures while my dog was with her. She made sure my dog stayed on the same schedule while I was away, which is much appreciated! My dog had a great time with her and really loved her stay. Volha and her family are a pleasure and I definitely will leave my Missy girl with her anytime I’m away! Thanks again Volha!”
“We Love Caroline! She sent the sweetest update pics and was lovely to work with. Easy communication, good vibes all around. I’ll def be contacting her again for hangs with my pup.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cottekill
We had a great experience with Kim! She was kind, patient and accommodating from the beginning. She sent regular updates and photos during our 4-days away. Our dog gets very anxious when we leave him, but he soon warmed up to Kim and enjoyed getting to run around in the park and snuggle up while it was cold out. We would definitely trust Kim again to take care of Bear when we need it.
Kimberly took excellent care of my little cavalier puppy Rudy🐶. It was his first time away from me and she updated me with messages and pictures. I was able to enjoy my trip knowing he was well taken care of with kindness & love. He bonded with her & I will definitely be requesting her services in the future!

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 Cottekill 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 Cottekill.
<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 Cottekill 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 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.
