About: My Labrador Retriever, Blossom, was my companion for six amazing years. We’ve gone everywhere from Times Square to camping by the Appalachian Trail. These days, Blossom is living her best life with my family in Washington State, where she has plenty of space to run around. I missed the daily adventures and connection that came with living with a dog, so I started pet sitting on Rover and have been for the past year. Since then, I’ve met dozens of new dogs and had the pleasure of creating memorable bonds with so many pets. I take pet sitting seriously and always treat them like my own fur babies. With my experience as highly rated pet sitter, I’m excited to bring my care and attention to the pets I look after through Rover. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my priority! I'm available all days of the week! Morning, afternoon, and evening for whatever your pet's needs may be. I have recently added boarding as an option as well. Currently my Thursday and Friday schedule is especially open. I treat every pet like my own, taking time to get to know their personality and making sure they feel comfortable and safe. While being a pet sitter, I’ve met countless dogs and they’re all different. Some are more shy and quiet and some can be jumpy and restless. I can handle any type of dog since I always go at their pace and adjust my care to meet their needs.
“I enlisted assistance of Bianca when I needed to board my pets over the holiday due to last minute work reassignment and Bianca made herself available on short notice. I also placed my babies in her daycare and she was more than helpful in rearranging her schedule to meet our needs.She has been more than kind, attentive and accommodating to my babies, Autumn and Pumpkin, from the moment they met. She took the time to bring her baby, Bb, to meet my pups I and ensured that everyone got along. She's focused on assuring me that my babies needs are met with contact continuously while they're in her care - with pictures videos and text updates. If you're looking for a dedicated, responsible, caring individual to care for your babies, then have found the one in Bianca. I am so grateful for the care she has provided my babies and will continue to enlist her help in the future.”
“We dropped off our pup for a doggy daycare at the sitters home and it was a great fit. My pup laid on Matthew’s lap all day with small walks here and there. Matthew was attentive and very communicative.”
“Stephanie and Corey were so lovely. Kept me updated throughout the day and immediately greeted my pup with the love that reassured me I was leaving her in good hands. Will be seeing them again soon!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 2 years, I also do dog walking. I treats dogs like my own, I have a 3 year old male Pomeranian/King Charles spaniel dog. I’ve trained him to be able to be free at the park and being able to come back to me without running away. He knows not to eat food from the floor. He’s a very obedient dog, I make sure the dogs that I board feel comfortable with me and my dog, I like to walk them at least 3 times a day and for long period of time, I have a park near by where I like to take them to sniff around and run around in the dog park. I also give them treats when at home, dogs are allowed to be on the bed, I provide access to water 24/7. I’m working full time, as I am a stay at home mom of a 4 month old baby. I’m able to play with the dogs, and walk them outside 3-4 times a day. I have a 3 years old male Pomeranian/ King Charles spaniel dog, 20 pounds he's very anxious at first but warms up perfectly fine after. I live in an apartment, I don’t keep my dog in a crate but he’s crate trained. I’m able to keep your dog in crate if you prefer. I don’t provide crates, if I see my dog is very anxious with the dog I’m boarding to keep both dogs safe I will leave my dog with my mom. Other than that I usually don’t have any problems with dogs being on the bed etc.. My dog doesn’t isn’t aggressive, he’s just anxious when meeting new dogs. But he likes to have company since he’s by myself. I have my living room free with plenty of space for them play around, I recently moved into a new apartment so I dont have any furniture in the living room.
“Liliana was fantastic! Charlie took to her right away and I felt comfortable leaving him. She sent me several pictures and updates. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”
“Kiky was absolutely fantastic with my 5-year-old Yorkie! She is incredibly patient and caring, which is so important for a smaller dog. I really appreciated how responsive she was throughout the booking, and the photos she sent were amazing—it was so nice to see my pup looking happy and settled. It’s clear she has a genuine love for dogs and takes great care of them. I felt totally at ease leaving him in her hands and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Lucia was great, she sent us pictures during the dog sitting and she allowed us an extra hour to come and pick up the dog on Xmas Eve day! thanks again and will book with you again”
About: Coming from Californian I’ve grown up with pets (cats, dogs). More recently I have take to short term fostering and light dog training. Happy to answer any questions! I currently work from home! So I have the time to give your pet the love and attention they need to feel comfortable while you are gone. I live in an apartment with no other pets in my home. There are other pets in the apartment building. Very close to a park and on a decently quiet street.

Luisanna was amazing with Lola and I would recommend her to anyone. We took our Lola girl on vacation with us to New York but she could not do some of the activities… Luisanna was available at short notice with quick and easy drops off/ pick ups. She was very responsive when I texted her and communicated with us during the day on how Lola was doing. Her communication is amazing, along with her sweet relaxed energy Lola warmed right up to her ! She truly took care of my baby as her own and it was easy to tell when I brought Lola the following day, Lola ran right to her. It was so reassuring to know my dog was happy, safe and well cared for. Her location is very convenient for any New York or New Jersey plans as she is right over the bridge. She was truly a life saver and I am so greatful I found her. Anytime I visit NY I will be contacting her as I’m sure Lola would love to see her !
Stephanie and Corey are the best! They've saved my life with watching my 1 year old pup with separation anxiety...he loves them so much and can't wait to spend the day with them and his new best friends Luna and Izzy! I can't begin to explain how much they've helped me with their care and accommodation. I know that my puppy is safe and happy when he's at their house! 💞
Kaitlin has been doing a great job with my senior dog Jackson. Jackson warmed up to Kaitlin very quickly. Jackson is pretty much blind and deaf and Kaitlin has been providing him with support to make him feel comfortable, such as letting him explore her apartment, pick him up to take him up and down stairs, use doggie stairs in her home, etc. Upon short notice she has agreed to adjust the drop off/pick up schedule, feed him meals, and board him overnight. Further Kaitlin gives me updates to let me know what’s going on with my dog, such as pictures, notifying me if he’s sleeping a lot. I’m greatful that Kaitlin is in the neighborhood and plan to use her services regularly.
We are new in the neighborhood and reached out to Lili about boarding and day care for our senior pups. Since our dog has become more finicky about things we wanted to take the process a bit slowly before boarding for multiple days. Lili was completely open to a meet and greet and dry run right away, and the first meeting went great. For our first day care day, our dog was being stubborn about walking down the street to her building. I was able to text Lili and she met us outside to help get our dog inside. This patience and flexibility, along with her warmth and ease in interactions with our dog, immediately impressed us. Lilis reassuring updates and pics from the session, and our dog's content demeanor after pickup, has been so great to see. How fantastic to have a good sitter as a neighbor. Thank you Lili!
Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my dog for the day. You were extremely professional, attentive, and reliable, and it was clear from the start that my dog was in excellent hands. I truly appreciated the care, patience, and kindness you showed, and you did an outstanding job. It gave me great peace of mind knowing everything was handled so well. I would gladly recommend you to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring with animals.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Inwood commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 11,367 sitters in Inwood, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
