“This was my first experience with a dog sitter, and I must admit I was a little nervous. However, Elissa was incredibly reliable; she sent updates and photos, which really brightened my day and helped ease my worries. I appreciate her taking such good care of my dog, especially on such short notice. I will definitely hire her again and recommend her to my family and friends.”

“Exceptional Dog Sitter! Reached out to Taylor with a last-minute request and she was kind enough to accommodated us and eased my worries about leaving my dog for the first time by arranging an advance meeting. Taylor provided outstanding care, going above and beyond to ensure my pup was treated like her own. I genuinely appreciate her attentiveness and dedication to my very attached pup. I only regret not finding her sooner. She is undoubtedly the best dog sitter I have come across on this app. As someone who frequently travels for work and relies on dog boarding services, I have dealt with the challenge of finding a responsible and proactive one. So grateful for her regular updates throughout the day, including an abundance of videos, which put my mind at ease.I will definitely book her again. Thank you, Taylor, for taking such wonderful care of Zuri!”

Shane sent us daily updates with pictures of him living his best life lounging in the yard and snuggling on the couch. Beans didn't want to leave!”

“Karen was the perfect choice for our senior dog, Cody. She replied quickly to our request for a meet and greet, and Cody took to her immediately! We dropped Cody off as we headed out to town for a week and he was happy to be with her. She gave him his daily meds, supplemented his food with the treats we requested, and sent us multiple photos and updates daily. We knew he was in good hands so we were able to enjoy our trip without any concerns for his care. We will use Karen again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Jordyn took wonderful care of our senior dog while we were away. She sent frequent updates with photos throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog has mobility challenges and needs a little extra help, and Jordyn was incredibly patient, attentive, and caring. It was obvious she treated her with kindness and affection. Our favorite update was that she was “cuddling Mr. Wolf!” When we picked her up, she came home happy, calm, and relaxed, which is the best indication of the care she received. We would absolutely trust Jordyn with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate, dependable sitter.”

“Malvi & Andrej G. will be our go-to for our boarding needs. We are already planning out next adventure. My Ace enjoyed his stay and is still catching up on his sleep from all the fun! When we dropped off, Mal asked how often we would like our updates. The updates captured the essence of Ace's stay. We never worried while we were away, and felt like we were flies on the wall. Thank you for caring for our baby. Cheryl and AJ B.”

Madalyn and her family went above and beyond for our little guy. They took exceptional care of our dog who has history of separation anxiety and used their knowledge and skills to make sure that our boy felt like safe and free of anxiety and boy, did it work! I am so overjoyed that I found an individual who I can rely on to make my pup feel safe and happy!

Stephanie and Robert are AMAZING !!! We were nervous to drop our doggie off because he is a pound dog with severe anxiety but they took care of him like he was their own!. We got pics and updates throughout his stay. We were afraid he may not want to come home . We will definitely be using them every-time we leave town .

There are 6,100 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Dunkirk. About 92% of Dunkirk sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

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.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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 .

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 MD ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
