“Thomas was awesome! My wife and I have been using Rover for a few years, and this was our first time booking with him. The experience exceeded our expectations. We have a very shy Schnauzer, but Thomas and his family treated him like one of their own. It was clear that they genuinely cared for him and made him feel comfortable while we were away. We also ran into some unexpected complications when returning from our trip, and Thomas was incredibly understanding and accommodating. His flexibility and willingness to help made a stressful situation much easier and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your fur baby with love and care, I highly recommend Thomas. We will definitely be booking with him again!”


“I can't recommend Tia enough as a dog sitter! My dog, Milo, is always so excited to see her! Tia went above and beyond to make sure I felt at ease while she was with Milo, sending lots of adorable photos and regular updates. It was clear that Milo was well cared for and happy the entire time. If you're looking for someone who genuinely loves animals and provides AMAZING care, Tia is the one!”


“Another great experience with Ellen. Can’t recommend her services enough. Always takes great care of my dog Roscoe. Will continue to use her boarding services. Have a vacation approaching and couldn’t be more confident and comfortable leaving my pet with her for a week.”

About: I grew up with both cats and dogs, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me and remains one of the most rewarding parts of my life. I currently have my own dog, who I adopted as a puppy while I was in college and is now 4 years old. Raising her has given me experience with training, building routines, and understanding different stages of a dog’s development. I’m comfortable administering medication, brushing and bathing, handling anxious behaviors, and keeping pets on their regular care schedules. I also have experience walking dogs that pull and can confidently handle strong or high-energy pups while keeping walks safe and structured. Whether your pet needs active playtime, consistent routines, or gentle care and attention, I’m patient and attentive, and I treat every pet like my own. As a current medical student, I understand the importance of flexibility and prioritizing a pet's needs. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and dependable. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I am excited to learn about your pet's unique personality and am more than happy to accommodate any specific requests. As a medical student, my schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to thoughtfully plan pet care into my daily and weekly routine. While there are periods of time when I am less available, I’m committed to clear communication about my availability and will always work to accommodate your pet’s needs as best as possible. Time management is extremely important to my academic program, and I bring that same organization, dependability, and attention to detail to pet care. I take pride in my work and practice compassionate, attentive care in everything I do. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and value the trust you place in me to care for them. In my home, I provide a safe, calm, and structured environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. I currently live in an apartment located directly across the street from a dog park with both large and small dog areas, which allows for convenient, safe, and appropriate exercise based on your dog’s size and temperament. The neighborhood is safe and very pet-friendly. I’m attentive to maintaining each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications or special care needs. I make sure pets receive both physical activity and plenty of attention and affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize consistency and respect for your space. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and maintain your pet’s usual routine to minimize stress. I’m also willing to travel or make special trips if your dog attends daycare, has a preferred park, or enjoys a specific walking route. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable and cared for as possible, wherever they are.
“Another wonderful stay for our pups with Debbie. She and her husband are wonderful with the dogs. She will be our first contact when we need someone to watch the dogs. Highly recommended!!”

“Tawni was great with our girls! She sent lots of photos which I loved to receive, and our girls seemed very happy staying with her. We will definitely ask her to keep them again!”
“We've worked with Erix several times now. He handles our high energy pup very well and send us updates so we don't worry. He also works with us with our pups varying medical conditions that require medicine.”

“I couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible care our dog received during our wedding. The sitter did a fabulous job! Not only did they provide a safe and comfortable environment for our pup, but they also kept us updated frequently with pictures and messages. It really helped ease our minds on such an important day. Highly recommend for anyone looking for trustworthy, loving care for their furry friends”

“This was our first experience using Rover and Irina. She is a sweetheart and clearly loves dogs! She was very accomodating and I think my dog was very comfortable there. I got pictures and updates to make me feel better about being gone and having my dog at a sitter. There was other dogs there as well and they all got along just fine! I would definitely use her again!”
“11/10. My dog had such a great time with Jose, it’s like she’s the one who had a vacation! Jose is extremely good about communicating and sending pictures, and it was a really nice experience to receive updates throughout my dog’s stay without needing to prompt for them. My dog had ample space to get her energy out, and with an additional bonus of having an active sitter to do activities with, there was never a doubt that she was receiving anything less than the care I’d provide her at home. I recommend Jose to anyone looking for a reliable sitter, a comfortable stay for their pet(s), and peace of mind—my dog is certainly looking forward to another stay!”

“Lindsey was amazing with my dog, Teddy! He had such a great time on her farm — it truly felt like a little vacation for him. She took wonderful care of him and kept me updated with fantastic photos and detailed messages about how he was doing. I really appreciated the communication and felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I would happily recommend Lindsey to anyone and will definitely book with her again in the future!”

“So happy we found Ashley! We needed a sitter for our two dogs over the Christmas holiday, and we couldn’t be happier. Picture and video updates, and when I picked my two up they were happy as clams! If I could give her six stars I would. Thank you Ashley!”

“After our dog boarding situation fell through for the week of Christmas, I stumbled upon Matthew and Christie (and their kids) on Rover. Not only were they able to accommodate our last minute reservation, but they were incredibly flexible when a million things went wrong on the tail end of our trip causing delay after delay. All that was awesome, but mostly it was their care and love for our dog (who’s truly the baby of our family and we are all just head over heels for) that was apparent and left us feeling completely at ease. We will absolutely be hitting them up again! We are so grateful to have stumbled upon such a caring loving family to care for our pup when we go out of town.”

“Three days before our vacation, our usual kennel had to cancel. Thank goodness for Ashley and Brian. I felt pretty comfortable on our initial discussions but have since realized that maybe this was a blessing in disguise. I really appreciated Ashley’s morning updates of pictures and how things were going. Her updates made me feel like she was getting to know my dog and he had a lot more one on one attention than he did with so many other dogs at the kennel. Nobody likes to leave their pets behind but if we have to, you want them to be well cared for. And with Ashley and Brian, he was. Thank you!!”

“Jenna was super friendly and laid back. She was cautious and had a meet and greet to see if my dog would get along with her dog before accepting my booking. She sent pictures to me while my dog was there and kept me updated on his days there. I will Definately be using Jenna again and highly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter for their dog.”

“Kara was great ! Was able to take Zoey at late notice and was more than happy to accomodate her special needs. Will be happy to use her again next time I'm out of town”

“Great experience! Was able to accommodate a last minute booking, had very fast communication, and sent lots of daily update pics of my dog! Would definitely recommend and book again!”


“Chelsea was absolutely amazing with Auggy! She took such great care of him and truly treated him like her own. We loved all the detailed updates and photos she sent — it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear she spent lots of time playing with him and making sure he felt loved and comfortable.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - East Syracuse
Felt very comfortable sending my dog to them for the weekend. They were very easy to communicate with and sent photos each day. My dog got plenty of time to play with others and a comfy place to rest. They also were very flexible and accommodating when I needed to change the time!

As always, Elsie had a wonderful overnight visit with Duncan and Joan. But this time was unique, as we needed to book at the last minute. The family was flexible regarding drop-off and pick-up times despite preparing to leave for vacation on that same morning after the overnight. We appreciated so much your kind assistance in working with us on the scheduling. Thank you, Joan, Duncan (and sister Anna). Elsie is looking forward to future belly rubs from you! We appreciated so much

There are 205 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in East Syracuse. About 94% of East Syracuse sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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. 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. 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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
