“Maytte is a gem! We have two very shy dogs and weren’t sure how they would do staying with a new person. They loved her and warmed up to her at the meet and greet we set up. It made going away much easier. Maytte sent updates every day, with pictures and videos of the dogs. We could tell they were loved and well cared for. Maytte went above and beyond, buying them each a harness for walks and new toys. We’ve already booked her for our next trip.”

“Nina was a lifesaver! She was able to schedule a meet and greet, and book our dog for the weekend with short notice. She was very communicative. We received updates, and pictures, which was so appreciated. Our dog seemed very content during his stay with Nina. We are looking forward to using her again!”

“Staci was absolutely wonderful - we will definitely be using her again!  Before we left Ozzie in her care, she was happy to meet over facetime and then in person to make sure we were comfortable.  She was calm and warm, and sent us plenty of pictures so we could see how happy our little guy was!  She is reliable, kind, and clearly a dog lover, and she took excellent care of Ozzie! Five stars!!”

When we picked him up, they sent me home with a handwritten note, dog treats, and a new chew toy. A very thoughtful finishing touch!”

About: Hi Neighbors, I am a Natural World Enthusiast looking to provide support to pets and their owners in the community. My heart is geared towards animals. I have decades worth of experience caring for dogs, cats and other small pets, from my own to friends and clients in the professional setting. My goal is to provide a sense of physical, mental, and emotional well being for your pet. I am here to help fill in the gaps in your busy schedules and be there. So whether your pal needs a hike, walk around the neighborhood, a feeding, medication dose (dogs and cats) or just a visit, I have your back. We all need movement, attention and praise, pets included. I use positive reinforcement as training method, for all pets at every stage. So whether you have a puppy with some aggression issues, a husky that needs a run, a diabetic cat, fish to be fed and admired, or an stinky old man dog that just needs to be sung to and told he's a good boy I am here to serve. I have two cats personally, they run the household and tell me what to do. They eat twice a day, get their boxes cleaned daily, and petted and played when they decide. Monday- Thursday I am available for pet visits from 10:30-2:30 and again from 5-9 pm Fridays - I am available from 10:30-1:00 for visits Weekends-vary During daycare hours I will always be in the home with your pet unless we are going on an outing together. Play, snacks, walks, songs, and naps will be provided daily. I do have two cats, who will probably stay out of the way, but cat friendly creatures are always preferred.

About: I’ve always loved dogs and truly enjoy spending time with them! I have a 4-year-old dog of my own who is friendly, playful, and gets along great with other dogs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different personalities and love giving them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. When your pup is in my care, I’ll treat them like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet, and I’ll do my best to give you peace of mind with regular updates and lots of love for your furry friend! 🐶❤️ I’m available most weekends and have more flexibility to spend time with your pup. Monday through Friday, I work from 6:30 AM to 3:00 PM. Before work, I always make sure my own dog gets outside for some morning exercise and attention. When I get home, we spend time playing and relaxing together in our fenced-in yard. Your pup will be welcomed into our routine and given plenty of love, attention, and playtime! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and get some exercise, and I’ll always supervise outdoor time. I have a friendly 4-year-old dog who gets along great with other dogs and can provide a companion for your pup. I’ll make sure every dog in my care feels comfortable, secure, and treated like part of the family. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any special instructions.

“Jaclyn took such good care of my dog Lily while I attended Biscoland music festival. She sent me frequent photos and updates about how Lily was doing. She understood my dog has some food aggression and she accommodated her by feeding her separately and supervising her during meals. She also helped care for an eye injury that Lily had sustained a few days prior. I highly recommend Jaclyn’s dog sitting services to anyone looking for peace of mind. Thank you for all your help and clear communication, Jaclyn! I will definitely call you next time I am in the area and need dog sitting!”

About: I am from a very rural town so I've been around animals all my life. Growing up we had 2 cats and a large dog that were primarily my responsibility as my siblings are much younger than me. I worked at an office that had 2 dogs and MANY foster cats amd kittens that I helped take of. I have also pet sit my friend's large dog whenever she goes away for the weekend or for a vacation. I have previous experience here on Rover caring for an elderly large breed dog with limited mobility. I have also taken a veterinary science course and am very comfortable having to administer medications or treatments that are needed. I'm currently working part time in Binghamton. I'm in town Sunday-Wednesday every week and am willing to be flexible on the weekends. I work in an office downtown near Court St Mondays and Tuesdays 9-5 with an hour break where I can do checkins or short walks. I can also adjust the schedule slightly if needed. Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays I am typically out of town, but that's not always the case. I'm always open to talk through my schedule on a case by case basis! I'm very open to instruction. I think owners know their pets and their routine best, so just let me know how you want the visit to look and I will make it happen!

“Daylin is a life saver. I was so worried about my dog while we were away for our wedding and honeymoon. She was so understanding. We did a few test nights to ensure Shadow was at ease. He did great. She sent pictures everyday and gave him fun enrichment toys. I trust her 100% with my furry son. Highly recommend.”

Amanda was amazing with our boys Murphy and Moose. She really allowed us to be able to relax on our vacation with knowing they were well taken care of! She sent us updates and pictures daily and you could tell they were having a blast! She gave them plenty of exercise and we could tell she was loving them as if they were her own!

Elizabeth was able to board my dog Manzie while I went out of town for a couple days during Thanksgiving. She was warm and welcoming, and Manzie felt at home right away. He made fast friends with Elizabeth's dog Louie and I received several photos of Manzie and a video of him and Louie running and playing in the backyard. I would definitely use Elizabeth again, and recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, secure, friendly, professional and worry-free boarding situation for your beloved pet.

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 Fairmount 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 Fairmount.

Tip: 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 Fairmount 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.
