“Amber and her family did a great job watching our dog Sawyer for 2&1/2 days. While we were out of town Amber sent some photos and a few messages with updates letting us know how Sawyer was doing.

“Mackenzie did an outstanding job caring for my dog Kobe. I was very pleased with the quality of care and found her to be reliable and trustworthy. She sent me regular updates on Kobe's situation which kept me happy knowing he was in good hands. I would go to her again in the future.”
“My pup is very attached to me and leaving him is difficult because I know he misses us but Deanna and Chris treated my pup like their own family and were wonderful, attentive, loving, and kind. They go above and beyond to make sure your fur baby is loved while you are away. They truly love animals and care for them like their own. I highly recommend them for anyone who needs to leave their fur baby for a period of time.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I’m known as the “animal whisperer”. All animals seem to love me, and everyone can see that. I do this as my actual job, so I’ll be home all day with your pets. I will treat them as if they’re my own animals. They’ll get some one on one time, long walks, play time, cuddle time, snacks (like peanut butter), and so much more. People call my home the “pet’s paradise”.
“We are are so happy with Claryssa & Dans service! Having someone comfortable with a X Large dog put our minds at ease! Our Bernese Mountain Dog Opie was safe happy and entertained in their care! We got lots of pictures of our boy relaxing and hanging with his new friends! We definitely will be using them again!!”
“Kaitlyn was incredible! She was so welcoming during our meet & greet, and her dog Tucker was so sweet with our dog! We received several updates throughout Remi’s stay and I felt so confident leaving him in her care! She made sure she knew Remi’s routine and habits during the meet & greet and verified the details before his stay. It was a great experience and Remi loved her huge fenced in yard! We would absolutely recommend Kaitlyn, and would love to use her again in the future!”
“Hannah was great with our dog! Tobi doesn’t normally eat much when we are gone away but with Hannah Tobi ate a full bowl each night! She enjoyed the large backyard and had a great time with Hannah dogs. I can tell Tobi was well loved while we were away. We also loved receiving daily updates with photos! Thanks for the amazing care you gave to Tobi!”

“Alicia was professional, friendly and sent daily updates with photos and videos of my dog. Any extra updates I requested were provided quickly. My dog has a lot of anxiety and she was very patient with him and provided him with the attention (and snuggles) he needed. He was clearly very well cared for. I will be using her again 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 Elba home-away-from-home, 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 Elba.
<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 Elba 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 , 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 .
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.
