“Lori and her son are amazing!!! You can tell they have so much love for dogs and it shows. My border collie came back happy, well loved on and tired! And Lori sends photos and updates while you are gone. Will definitely be sending Cassie back!”
“Elise was awesome with Macy! I have the hardest time trusting anyone with my best friend but the second I dropped her off I knew she was in good hands. Elise kept me updated on how Macy was doing the whole time, and I know Macy got just as much love and attention as she would with me. Thank you for taking such good care of Macy! Elise is definitely my first choice from now on!”
“Buster-Matisse loves coming to stay with Amber and play with Jasper! We love it too! We’ve had our standard poodle stay overnight here on two occasions. Each time we were met with super friendly Jasper who put our Buster right at ease. Not only does Amber respond with quickly over Rover, she’s really easy to work with and takes great care of our fur baby. A true professional! We highly recommend her! And Jasper too! 🐾”
“Clooney had the best time ever staying with Bob, Vicky and Jax. And I had a peace of mind, because their communication and photo and video updates were impeccable! I am so grateful for them. Highly recommend!!!”
“Karin and fam do a great job caring for our Doodle. I love the photos I get with the dog and the kids in them, they make me smile and I can tell by the photos Kitty is happy! Thank you Karin!”
“Oakley always has the best time with Elizabeth & Alexander. They send plenty of check ups with pictures. Oakley is so excited to go back soon.”
“Ashley is always fantastic with Lucy! She is great at sending me updates and Lucy loves her stays at there. When we arrived at her house, Lucy ran right to the front door excited to see Ashley!”
“Tina did an AMAZING job! This was our first time leaving our dog at another persons home and we were nervous, but there was no need to be nervous. They sent pictures and took such good care of our girl and treated her like one of their own. We highly recommend them!”
“Absolutely amazing! I worry about my geriatric lab who has separation anxiety. Amy sent messages multiple times a day with photos checking in with how things are going right down to potties, walks and medicine. I 100% vouch for her and highly recommend.”
“Bobbie and her husband were perfect hosts and caregivers for Sadie, our chihuahua corgi mix. She is getting old and and a little grouchy when confronted with large dogs or young energetic dogs. Being at Bobbie's place where she was the only dog and had no competition for human attention and affection was great with Sadie. She was healthy and happy when we returned to pick her up after our 10 day trip. Thanks, Bobbie!”
“Sylvia is truly a “dog whisperer”. I was so worried about leaving our dog (who thinks he’s human) and she was incredible. I received daily updates and she literally transformed this dog from a protective alpha to a charming alpha. I adore her! She was made for this.”
“It was wonderful to know my dog Bodhi was incorporated into Moya's family throughout his visit. And I truly appreciated the photos sent throughout his stay. Thank you, Moya & Family!”
“There aren't enough good things that I can say about Chad and his family! Not only was he super responsive, but I definitely felt like my dog was in good hands. Throughout my trip, I received many photo updates, usually when my dog was out and about playing with other pups. Having someone that you can depend on is paramount and I hit the jackpot with Chad. THANK YOU!!! P.S. Jovie says hello 🙂”
“Tyler was an excellent dog sitter, he took care of our elderly dog like he was his own! Very responsive and sent us photos throughout the stay. Thank you Tyler!”
“Thanks for taking such great care of Buster! Lerin was super easy to communicate with from initial contact, meet and greet, stay and pickup. She made it very easy. Her dogs were a a great match for Buster. He was in a great mood when we got him. Would highly recommend!”
“Michael, Wendy and their sweet family were amazing with our Charlie! We joked that he might be disappointed to get picked up! It was wonderful to have such peace of mind knowing our puppers was in great hands.”
“Katelyn took excellent care of Bella when she cared for her overnight at her house. Bella hasn’t stayed the night many other places and she was able to settle in. I would definitely keep Bella with Katelyn again.”
“Amanda is amazing! My two pups love staying at her house. Amanda adores her own dogs and treats them like family, and when my girls were with her they got the same attention, love, and care that she gives her own. I felt VERY comfortable leaving my dogs there for the first time. I knew they were in great hands and were living their best life while I was away. Amanda took them on lots of walks and sent many cute pictures and updates, too. She was also very willing and happy to do things the way our pups are used to at home. Thank you, Amanda! Poppy and Sunny will definitely be staying here again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Garden City
Sarah took such wonderful care of Mio! We could really tell that Mio was being looked after with lots of attention and love. Sarah sent us photo updates every day, which made us feel very comfortable while we were away, and she also provided Mio with plenty of fun activities to keep her entertained. They even set up a little pool for Mio to play in, which was her first time playing in the water! She looked like she had so much fun. We truly believe Mio had an exciting and very happy week with Sarah. We really appreciate all the care she gave her and would absolutely recommend her!
My regular sitter had an emergency arise at the last minute before a 10 day trip; I have a stubborn Frenchie, and a timid (and flight-risk) new rescued pup. Marie was able to take them in, sent updates daily that were really attentive to the dogs' personalities and needs --my rescue who was too nervous to eat and she worked to find something for her that finally coaxed her into having an appetite. Just the best.
Angela was absolutely wonderful! From the very beginning, she communicated so well and took the time to answer all of my questions, making sure I felt completely comfortable leaving my tiny baby with her. Since Phoebe is only 3.5 lbs, finding someone I could truly trust was so important. Throughout her stay, Angela sent daily updates, photos, and thoughtful messages that reassured me Phoebe was safe, happy, and getting so much love and attention. It gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Phoebe had a fantastic stay, and we’ll definitely be back for more playdates. I highly recommend Angela to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and trustworthy sitter!

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.
93% of sitters in Garden City 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 Garden City 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 Garden City.
<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 Garden City 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 ID 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.
