“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Shirley for the weekend. He has separation anxiety and she was accommodating towards his needs to ensure he had a stress free stay with her. I appreciate how she was flexible with my drop off and pick up times. Would definitely hire her again!”
“Britany was great! She boarded Judy for 5 days and she did a great job. Judy was a pup without all her shots and she was very accommodating to her specific needs.”
“Michelle is amazing! We are new to the area and had a negative experience with a different sitter previously. I was so nervous to try someone new. We found Michelle and I am SO grateful!! I honestly think our dog didn’t want to leave her house. She sent tons of photos and updates. Our Great Dane is sensitive to new situations and will refuse to eat. Michelle waited with her during each meal so she would eat. She truly went above and beyond and I can not recommend her enough.”
“Wendy was absolutely wonderful. This was the first time we left Phoebe alone and she bonded so well to Wendy. Got updates constantly with adorable pictures. Going forward Wendy will be our only petsitter”
“The best sitter to book with! Xiaoying and her family are excellent and truly the sweetest! I had an overnight cat sitting service with them for a 7 nights and they sent me daily photos and videos and made sure to keep me updated! They also brought so many toys, a cat tree, and cat hideaway spots for my cat. My cat Lucki didn’t want to leave he really liked it there and it’s like his second home now😊 will definitely be rebooking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a pet sitter or boarding service! ❤️”
“Lorena is an amazing sitter!!! 1000% recommend!! My dog did not want to leave her home after staying there one night! She sent lots of pictures and read all the directions for him! Please do yourself a favor and book her now!!”
“Vanessa and her family are the best! She made me feel very comfortable with leaving my puppy for the very first time, since birth, with her. She suggested a meet and greet so that I can see where he will be staying and he was able to sniff around so he wouldn't be in a shock when I drop him off. She's very friendly and she sent me videos and pictures throughout his entire stay with her. She loved my Blue as if he was her own pet. She has a repeat customer in me! Thank you again Vanessa!”
“I have to thank Evan and Iris for taking such good care of my cat this weekend. I can't say enough about them. From the moment I dropped him off, they sent pictures and videos to ease my mind. This is the first time I have even left my 19 year old cat with anyone for boarding. I was reassured upon meeting them and within 15 minutes of leaving, I was able to see him exploring his surroudings calmly. I received many more pictures and videos which gave me piece of mind that my baby was safe and happy. I would wirthout a doubt recommend them to my friends with confidence. They are wonderful people and I will definatley book with them again.”
“Jennifer was amazing, incredibly patient and met with us before we boarded our son with her. She provided so many updates and addressed all of our needs and special requests with Ludo, and we would not hesitate to book her again. She truly worked to get to know Ludo to give him the best care possible.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was ten years old, and I have seventeen years of hands-on experience as a dog owner and caregiver in my adulthood. Family, friends, and neighbors have also trusted me to care for their dogs. I have experience with puppies through senior dogs, including puppy training and reinforcing established routines. I am comfortable administering medications and caring for senior dogs and dogs with medical needs, and I am CPR certified. My own dog was my baby and truly like a son to me. We spent seventeen years together before he recently passed away in April. He traveled with me, went everywhere with me, and was a huge part of my life. Being a devoted dog owner myself taught me how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else's care. I will treat your dog with the same love, patience, attention, and respect I gave my own. I work full-time during the week, so I am primarily available for boarding and daycare on weekends and holidays, when I can devote plenty of time and attention to the dogs in my care. If your dog is comfortable being home alone during my workday, weekday care may also be possible, and we can discuss your dog's individual routine and needs beforehand. When I am caring for your dog, I want their normal routine to remain as consistent as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications, bathroom breaks, and bedtime routines. I live in a quiet home with a securely fenced backyard where your dog can safely spend time outside. I will only host 3 small or 2 medium dogs at a time. Dogs are welcome on my couches and beds, and if your dog normally sleeps with you, they are welcome to sleep with me too. I want my home to feel like their home while they are staying with me. I believe you know your dog better than anyone, so I will follow your care instructions closely. That includes feeding schedules, medications, walks, sleeping arrangements, training routines, house rules, and any special needs or preferences. I also pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and overall comfort. My priority is making sure your dog is safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while giving you peace of mind while you're away.
“This was the 3rd time Willow stayed with Narly and it was like she was home. She was excited to see Narly again and play with the other dogs. She LOVES staying here!”
“They truly do an amazing job at making my cat feel at home! I really feel like she’s in good hands and as comfortable as possible not being at home. 10 out of 10 would recommend”
“I can’t recommend Samantha enough! From the moment we met, I knew my dog was in amazing hands. She treated my pup like family — giving them tons of love, attention, and care. While I was away, she kept me updated with regular messages and adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog came home happy, calm, and clearly well taken care of. It’s such a relief knowing there’s someone I can fully trust with my fur baby. I’ll absolutely be booking with Samantha again. Thank you for everything!”
“Dayanara took wonderful care of our dog over the holidays! She kept us up to date each day and gave us a lot of comfort knowing our pup was in good hands. She even made a DIY dog coat for our pup when it snowed, which was very thoughtful and adorable.”
“Kristin did an amazing job taking care of my Baby girl Noelle! She was gentle, caring, and patient with her! And I! She communicated clearly and I truly appreciate it! Highly recommend! 🐕”
“Clean house, secure backyard, and updated photos of my wonderful pet!! What else could I ask for? Michelle was a wonderful host who made my pet (and me) feel safe and calm. From the photos, my Mila felt right at home. To end Mila's visit, she was given a "to go" gift bag from this super host. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Keri and her husband took care of our cavalier like he was their own dog. Updated us with pictures every day! We felt like we didn’t have to worry about him at all!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Herricks
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!!
We boarded Tank with Steven and Vee for a weekend, and it was the most relaxed we've felt leaving him. Since they already do his drop-ins, they know his routine and quirks, and they handled his eye drops and meds, so we could actually enjoy our trip. Tank is a rescue with separation anxiety, and it meant a lot that he was with people he already knows and trusts. They kept us updated with photos. We'll definitely book them again.
Tanu was wonderful with Yogi! 🐾 She was so accommodating, caring, and attentive, and Yogi clearly had such a great time with her. I also really appreciated all the pictures and videos she sent, it was so reassuring to see him happy and having fun. We would definitely book with Tanu again! ❤️
She is the best. My dog loves her so much, and he was very happy. Within a few hours, he had a bond with her and with the other dog that was in the house at that time. I have never seen my dog as happy as he is at this time with Marcelina. She always communicates, and she always sends pictures and videos. This makes me comfortable, and everybody in the family actually is happy about that. I will use her again and again, and it's a pleasure knowing her. Thank you very much for taking care of Rusty .I really appreciate it.
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!

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 Herricks home-away-from-home, 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 Herricks.
<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 Herricks 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 , 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 .
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.
