“Kylo had a great stay with Anner! He was really accommodating of some hectic scheduling for the meet and greet, and we were able to see that Kylo would be comfortable for his stay ahead of time. Anner sent videos and some photos while we were away of Ky enjoying the yard and playing with other pups. When we picked Kylo up, he seemed like he had a great time! Thanks, Anner, for taking great care of our slightly older, very goofy boy!”
“Dew is a great communicator and a pleasure to work with. She clearly cares about the dogs in her care. Juno had a great time and we have already booked another overnight.”
“My two Huskies had a blast with Rich and friends! I had zero worries as he is clearly very knowledgable and sent lots of pics! We will be sure to send our pups with him again in the future.”
“I am always appreciative that I can leave my dog Ginger with Andrea when I need to. It feels very reassuring to know that Ginger will be well taken care of and cared for. This was another great and successful boarding. Andrea sends me pictures of Ginger which is great. Thanks for all that you do Andrea!”
“Hi Rachael, I just wanted to say thank you so much for watching April. It meant the world to me to see the photos of the hikes and know she was in such good hands. It’s clear she had a wonderful time and was well loved while I was away. We’ll definitely be reaching out next time we need a sitter. Thank you so much!”
“Another great visit with Lily and her family! She continues to take great care of our senior pup, making him feel like part of the family and meeting him at his level. So communicative and helpful!”
“Nicole is great and once again gave my dog Lulu a mini vacation at her place. Lulu had fun with her and other guest dogs and chilled at baby pool with sprinklers. She had a great time as usual at Nicole’s. Thx so much!”
“Sue was great. Really patient and accommodating. My pup was returned to me happy and healthy. Her husband was also very nice and they both seemed very confident and comfortable with my pup who’s a 48lb pittie. Thank you Sue and Franky. We appreciated your care and attention to our fur baby. Sue also sent regular selfies of the pup and was quick to reply to messages.”
“We were extremely happy with our experience! Ryan was knowledgeable and attentive to our dog. We received many updates and pictures while we were away which we really appreciated. He was even willing to bathe him after a run in with a mud puddle. 😅 We’ll definitely be repeat customers.”
“Joy responded quickly when I inquired about her availability and kept in touch with me during my pet Luna’s stay. She sent pictures and I could see Luna seemed happy and comfortable. It was Luna’s first time with Joy and hoping it won’t be her last. I highly recommend Joy.”
“They accomdated us last minute when a previous booking didn't work out. 3 small dogs including a very senior dog with strong seperation anxiety. Managed it all so well; very patient, gentle and kind with all of them. Very grateful!”
“Jessica and her husband were clearly so patient and understanding about sitting for a senior dog. Salto came back happy and excited! They sent regular photos and updates. I would absolutely have Salto stay with them again if we are in the area.”
“This was our second time boarding Billie with Sonia and her family, and we are so glad to have found someone local who takes such good care of Billie! Thank you to Sonia, Brian, and Vivian!”
“I’m so grateful for the wonderful care. Hazard not only kept him safe and loved, but also really took the time to get to know him. The thoughtful updates she sent gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear she paid close attention to all the little details, which reassured me that my kitty was in the best hands. She truly made me feel at ease. 💕”

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.
95% of sitters in Cross River 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 Cross River 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 Cross River.
<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 Cross River 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.
