About: I have a 13 year old shitzu yorkie who has been with me since I was 9 and I trained him myself. I have a roomy place with lots of places for individual areas. I currently am taking a break from work and have plenty of time to care for your furry friend as needed! Full time availability and plants of room in my schedule for any hour care. I have a dog who can keep your furry friend company but have enough room to separate them if your dog or cat likes their own space!
“Our dogs love Dino! Dino was able to help us with 2 dropins on short notice and as always took fantastic care of our dogs. We are happily repeat customers and will gladly continue to reach out to Dino as needed. Happy, well cared for pups and a sitter they love”
“Nicole made it so easy for us to leave for our trip and leave our 3 dogs in her care, we never worried once about them! They had a great time adventuring and playing w her pup, as seen by the many awesome pictures she provided us with which was so nice to see! She’s definitely an expert in the field of caring for dogs & we’re so glad to have found someone local to trust with the care of our beloved girls!”
“Tiassa was fantastic, always arrived on time and took phenomenal care of my two cats. She went above and beyond and my cats immediately felt comfortable around her. Definitely will be using her services again next time I need a pet sitter. Thank you!”
About: Taylor and I are lifelong animal lovers with experience caring for pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments, including those with special needs. We both grew up with lots of pets and truly can’t imagine a home without them. We have hands-on experience working with a wide range of behaviors, which helps us provide structure, consistency, and a calm environment for every dog in our care. Through my time pet sitting, volunteering at shelters and fostering dogs, I’ve gained practical experience with pet first aid, administering medications, and bathing. We keep a small, carefully managed group so each pet receives individualized attention, plenty of supervision, and a safe, comfortable, home-like experience. While we both work full time, we can still meet your needs. Weekdays or weekends, we’ve got you covered! Rest assured, your pets will be on a consistent schedule, just like ours! We have a full acre of land with plenty of space for dogs to run, play, and explore. Our property is set far back from the road, with an electric fence and a secure run for pups who can’t be off leash. There’s even a doggie pool for hot summer days, outdoor dog beds for lounging, and lots of toys for playtime. Our own dogs are friendly, trained, and social — they love meeting new furry friends and joining us on adventures. Whether it’s a hike, trip to the creek, or a visit to a dog-friendly store, we make sure our pets (and yours!) enjoy life to the fullest. We understand how important it is for your pets to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. We take introductions slowly and carefully, provide separate spaces when needed (including a calm, cat-only room), and can accommodate crate-trained dogs with our double crate setup and baby gates for added security. You can feel confident that your pets will be treated with the same love, attention, and care that we give our own.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fort Drum stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Fort Drum choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Fort Drum with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
