“Left my playful Lab/Retriever pup with Christopher for a couple days. 1st time Luca was away from us so was concerned howed he be. He was relaxed immediately and from the pictures Christopher sent while there seemed to enjoy it. Quick response and communication was terrific. Thank you Christopher”
“Cynthia was amazing with Chai! Chai felt comfortable and came back with no issues. Cynthia sent updates and pictures and answered all my messages in a timely manner. She was on time to pick up and drop off Chai. Would definitely book with Cynthia again!”
“Outstanding care. My 2 dogs were loved and spoiled from the moment I dropped them off to the time I picked them up. They enjoyed 6 days of playing and cuddling. Michelle sent daily updates and pictures. My dogs were safe and cared for. I would recommend her 100%. Thank you!”
“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!”
“Super caring and considerate. She took such good care of my pup and was very attentive and friendly. She sent regular pictures and videos and I knew my dog was happy eating and well taken care of”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every dog I look after. I treat them like my own—with love, patience, and respect for their routines. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, and I’m comfortable with both puppies and senior dogs. I understand that each dog has its own personality and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe and happy in my care. Since I’m not currently a dog owner, I pour all my energy and affection into the dogs I sit for. I also have a fenced yard, which gives dogs a secure place to play and relax. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always keep pet parents updated so they can feel confident while they’re away. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, and I make time for it on weekends and some weekday evenings. I’m usually available on weekends for boarding and daycare, and with advance notice, I can provide walks or care after 5:00 PM during the week. Since I don’t currently have a dog of my own, spending time with pets through Rover gives me the chance to enjoy their company and provide the attention they deserve. It’s something I look forward to fitting into my weekly routine, and I always plan my schedule carefully to give each dog quality care and attention. When caring for dogs in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I live in a house with a fenced yard, so dogs have a secure space to play and get fresh air. I stick to their usual routines as closely as possible—feeding, walking, playtime, and rest—based on their owner’s instructions. I keep a calm, clean environment and always give plenty of love and attention. For walks and weekend daycare, I focus on making the experience fun and stress-free. I tailor walks to each dog’s energy level and needs, whether it’s a quick potty break or a longer walk for exercise. I also pay close attention to leash safety, weather conditions, and staying in familiar areas unless otherwise requested. Whether in my home or out and about, your dog’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority.
“Diane has been a lifesaver! Prompt updates and photos, amazing response time, wonderful service & Luna was very happy! Which is what everyone ultimately needs to know while they are separated from their pet. Diane has been amazing and we will definitely be using her again in the future if needed!”
“We needed to leave our dog Chopper for more than two weeks while away. We found Duvin and Chopper had a great time at his place. Duvin was always responsive, knows how to handle dogs of different temperaments and helped Chopper socialize again in a safe environment. We will book again.”
“First time using this app and had such a good experience with her! Great at communicating and provided great care for both my dog and cat, would book again!!🫶”
“This is Bella’s second time with Michelle and we absolutely adore her. We feel so at ease to go on vacations now. Michelle always takes into consideration Bella’s personality and little quirks. We recommend her without hesitation.”

“Jennifer was amazing, incredibly patient and met with us before we boarded our son with her.

She truly worked to get to know Ludo to give him the best care possible.”
“Great sitter; accommodates your dog's needs very well, no matter how needy they can be. I had to extend the stay last minute, and they were very flexible with that too. I'd give 10 stars if I could!”

“Joey was great! His entire family are so warm and friendly and set my anxiety about dog sitting my large, spoiled, tripod, Cersei, at ease. She loved them and literally ran in the house without me which never happens with strangers. Joey sent tons of pictures and did an excellent job catering to my fur babies needs. 10 out of 10 highly recommend! ☺️”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Franklin Square
This was my first time using Rover and I was a little apprehensive to leave my Kenzo for 8 days. That was the longest I've ever had him boarded. Lorena and her family had my little Kenzo feel right at home. She sent plenty of pictures and communicated with me everyday. I would absolutely 100% board with her again and would recommend her to anyone using Rover for the first time!
Vee and Steven were amazing with our Ruby! Ruby takes some time to warm up to humans and they were so patient with her and let her set the pace. Thank you River for being a great friend and sharing your toys! I felt at ease and very comfortable leaving my girl with them. I got a very detailed update with many pictures and videos daily which I truly appreciated. They are the best!!
I trust Tanu and her family 100% with my sweet 50lb Sheepadoodle Latke. She sent me videos and photos regularly twice a day; the transition for drop off and pick up was seamless. I felt confident the whole time I was away that my pup was well cared for and attended to. I highly recommend her.
Highly Recommend Britany! Britany was absolutely wonderful with Tommy! Knowing he was in such good hands gave me so much peace of mind, especially while I was busy hosting my daughter’s Sweet 16. I was able to enjoy and focus on such a special and important night without having to worry about Tommy because I knew he was being well taken care of. Britany was reliable, caring, and made the entire experience stress-free. It means so much to have someone you can trust with your fur baby, and I’m so grateful for her help. I would absolutely recommend Britany to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter. Thank you, Britany, for taking such great care of Tommy and sending so many great pictures and videos.
I absolutely love Joanna, I highly recommend her! She is very experienced and knowledgeable when it comes to caring for senior dogs, especially those who require extra attention and medical care. She took wonderful care of my fur baby Oreo,including cleaning his wound and administering his medication as needed. She was gentle, patient, attentive, and compassionate throughout his care. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my dog was in such capable and loving hands. It’s clear how much she genuinely love animals. I truly appreciate everything she did for Oreo and would highly recommend her, especially to anyone with a senior dog or a pet requiring special care. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with Oreo again! ❤️🐾
Alexa is amazing and Jack came back home very happy. From the beginning Alexa suggested and accommodated a meet and greet day, and Jack was more then happy to stay with Alexa the day of babysitting. Alexa also was more then accepting of time extensions and I also met her Dad. When Jack was dropped off they had a small sign in the door with jacks name welcoming him. Thank you Alexa!!
A last-minute family emergency led me to Grace, and I’m so grateful it did. She happily welcomed Danny and made it a priority to ensure he would feel comfortable and happy staying with her for the weekend. She was communicative and responsive throughout, which means so much to me. Danny loved spending the weekend with Grace, and I’m simply grateful she exists!
Narly and her family is so amazing! This is our dog’s 3rd time staying with Narly for around a week and he always has the best time playing with her pups. She does a great job keeping us updated with pictures daily! Thanks for being such a lovely home away from home for our doggo and he can’t wait to visit again soon!
We had a wonderful experience with Cynthia as our dog sitter! She was caring, responsible, and attentive to our dog’s needs. She kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us great peace of mind, and our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We truly appreciated her kindness and reliability and would absolutely recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!
We had an absolutely amazing experience with Grainne! Teddy was immediately comfortable the moment they met, and it’s completely obvious that Grainne has a true passion for caring for dogs. He had a wonderful vacation of his own, and the photo updates she sent while we were away completely put our minds at ease—the kids loved seeing them! We will definitely book with Grainne again
Lisa took such amazing care of Ruffles while we were away for 3 weeks. She sent daily updates with photos and videos that really put our minds at ease while we were miles away. We will absolutely be using Lisa again for our future needs and highly recommend her for your fur babies!

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.
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.
94% of sitters in Franklin Square can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Franklin Square 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 Franklin Square.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Franklin Square. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Franklin Square 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
