“Krystal took wonderful care of our dog, Joules, while we were away for two weeks. We were initially nervous about leaving our older dog for that long, but Krystal made the experience completely stress-free. She kept us updated regularly, gave Joules plenty of attention and long walks, and clearly cared about his well-being. We came home to a happy dog and couldn't be more pleased. We highly recommend Krystal!”
“Just picked up Winston from his second time doing daycare with Abbas, and we couldn’t be happier! Abbas takes care of our dog like he is his own & is super communicative the entire time we’re gone. We are so happy to have found a consistent sitter for Winston and would recommend his services to anyone!”
“Thanks so much for taking such good care of Millos. I finally found someone who really loves dogs and enjoy taking care of them. I truthfully recommend Peggy as a sitter. Thanks again!!!! I”
“I can’t say enough good things about Grace. She took such great care of my Loona for the week we were away. She has never been away from my home but Loona looked so comfortable and having such a great time with all the videos Grace sent to me. I felt like I left my puppy with family and I would recommend her to everyone. Wish I could leave more than 5 stars.”
“Kenya was amazing with my dog Pepper. We had an out of town family reunion and Kenya was very accommodating. She has a spirit of an animal lover we felt very comfortable with her. Pepper was very warm to get and she kept me informed of how he was doing. Everything we extremely well and we are happy we chose her. We will most certainly use her services again!”
“Tiffany and Joel were my best experience on rover yet - they were very communicative about my dog, ensured he stayed active, shared tons of pictures, and kept a close eye on how he was doing at every point during his stay. Will definitely be requesting another stay with them!”
“Jonisha and her family always take such wonderful care of our Nene and Scrappy. We drop them off with complete peace of mind, knowing they’ll be well looked after—and maybe a little spoiled! They always come back happy, and we have no doubt they’ve been given the best care. Jonisha has become our go-to sitter, and we can’t imagine leaving our dogs with anyone else.”
“Dayanara was so helpful and was able to watch our dog, Ginger, for a last minute booking. She sent updates, included photos, throughout each day. It was good to know that Ginger was being cared for while we were away. This was our second booking with her and we hope to use her services again in the future.”
“Megan and Brian took great care of an our little senior dog. They sent updates and clearly made him feel at home. We will definitely use them again in the future! ❤️”
“Chris communicated well, was flexible with time, and gave timely updates with videos. Wonderful caretaker and my pup came back very happy. Thanks so much Chris!”
“Kristen was amazing to work with! She sent daily updates with adorable pictures of my little old lady, which totally eased my nerves since it was my first time leaving her in someone else's care. I'd happily leave my dog with her again.”
“This was our first experience with both Rover and Ariella L. We had an excellent experience with both. Ariella was very attentive to both our dogs and followed up virtually everyday with updates and pictures. Both dogs were also very comfortable with her and her dog. The environment was spacious and clean. We plan to use her to watch our dogs again in the near future. Mary”
“Jasmil once again was amazing with Papa! She and her family cared for him as if he was their own :) she is so patient with him and sends the best updates throughout his stay. I will always recommend Jasmil!!”
“My dog is like my furry kid. He’s very special to me so whenever I have to leave him I get super anxious. Lenford eased that anxiety. He was very warm and welcoming to me and my dog. He made me feel like I had nothing to worry about and that my dog was in caring hands. He’s also really communicative. He sent me lots of pictures and video to keep my updated on how my dog was doing in his care. Lenford is amazing and will be my go to from now on,”
“We had such a wonderful experience! Dior felt right at home from the moment she arrived and was so well cared for during her stay. We loved getting updates and could tell she was receiving lots of attention, love, and even some extra treats. Especially because Dior was in heat we were so happy she was comfortable. The thoughtful gift keychain was such a sweet surprise and really showed how much they care about both pets and their owners. We came home to a happy pup and couldn't ask for more. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog!”
“First time using Rover and very worried about choosing someone to take care of Luna for the first time. I met Narly and her family and they welcomed Luna with open arms. Luna is usually cautious with strangers but right away she warmed up to Narly and her Shih Tzu Princess. Narly always updated me with pictures how Luna was doing which gave me a piece of mind for the days I was gone. I will definitely use Narly again in the future. I highly recommend.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Rachel! She took great care of our Amy, sending us photos every day and giving us a full report on how Amy was doing. She took Amy for nice walks and gave her outside time in the back yard. Amy was clearly happy and comfortable, we couldn't have asked for a better boarding situation for our dog.”
“If I could give 10 stars 🌟 I would. Lissette & Danny were AMAZING!!! They treated my 3 pups as if they were their own. Both Cocoa and Brooklyn were so spoiled and pampered, they almost didn't want to come home. Lissette and Danny paid attention to every detail. They even got Cocoa to eat when she decided she didn't want the food I packed for her to eat. Everything was perfect. I am definitely going to use them again. 🩵🩵🩵”
“I used Janine for the first time, and she exceeded every expectation. She was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring, providing regular updates that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter.”
“We had great communication with Shirley throughout the entire process. We did a meet and greet before the stay, and she asked thoughtful questions beforehand to really get to know our dog. During the stay, she shared lots of photos and videos, which we truly appreciated. She was also very flexible and accommodating when we had to change our plans due to the snowstorm. Highly recommend!”

I couldn't be happier with the care my dog received! She was kind, reliable, and treated him like one of her own. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly appreciate the love and attention she gave him, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my boy!

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 Meet & Greet .
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.
