“Amber was a fantastic sitter! She took amazing care of our sweet girl and provided us with great updates while we were away. You can tell she knows how to take care of dogs and I truly felt our fur baby was safe with her. We will definitely be using Amber again!!”
“Alex and Bethany are trusted with my silly goose 100%. They send photos and videos and take care of my dog like she was theirs! This is the perfect spot to bring your pup!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Hannah and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, caring pet care. She was attentive, communicative, and clearly treated my Scooby with kindness and patience. It gave me real peace of mind knowing Scooby was safe, happy, and well cared for while I was away. I would absolutely book with Hannah again.”
“Debra was super kind and patient with my dog, who is anxious with new people. She kept me up to date on how he was doing and responded quickly to my texts and calls. She was flexible about drop off time and pickup time as well!”
“Tetiana is always our go to person to watch Bronco when we’re out of town. This was her third time watching him, and she always provides amazing care and updates on him. We already have her booked for another stay!”
“My girl Shayla was practically adopted into Ian's family for 4 days. They have a little son, and he turned out to be the most enthusiastic playmate of Shayla. I was so thrilled to hear about their long walks and adventures with yogurt-face-cleaning. I received several pictures and even a video while I was away. Ian was truly a wonderful caretaker, providing Shayla with family fun that is as far from the typical kennel boarding experience as one can get. Thank you, Ian!”
About: I’ve had pets since I was born. I love to take my dog on walks at the beach and play in the yard with him. I am attentive to any reactions they might have to their surroundings as well. I’ve been looking for a job during the week days and I figured why not try this out to maybe help some families live their life if they’re on vacation or super busy. I have a friendly dog who will keep any pets company. I have a big yard with sun or shade if any dogs love to be outside. I also have crates if dogs need to be crated during the night or day.
“Matt & Rachel we’re great dog sitters for us! This was our first time using Rover and having our dogs stay with strangers so we were a little nervous going into it. We had a meet and greet with them and their dogs prior to booking and it eased all our nerves! We loved the daily photos and videos from them. They were great about providing an update on our dogs daily including the status of them eating. One of our dogs gets really anxious and depressed when we leave him (even if he’s staying with our parents) and tends to skip meals. Rachel and Matt kept a close eye on him and updated us regularly. Pups came home very tired from playing - safe to say, we’ve already booked them again for a future trip!”
About: I come from a family who has always had multiple pets at a time, with anywhere from 3 to 10 foster dogs under our care at any given time! I’ve cared for a wide range of dogs from smaller poodles and Shih tzus to much larger retrievers, border collies, and German shepherds. I have experience with cats as well, but much more lengthy experience taking care of dogs of different sizes and temperaments :) I am a med student so my schedule varies in flexibility but I live in a very walkable area and typically spend a lot of time at home studying! I love taking long walks in between classes and studying and would love to bring a furry friend along with me :) As I do have to be in classes some days for a few hours (no more than 3-4 at a time), i am better boarding pets who can be left alone for a couple hours. As for my home, I have plenty of space for them to run around freely.
About: We have a secure fenced backyard for supervised play and potty breaks. Dog hangout and sleep in the living room so they are always near people and part of the home. I’ve raised my own dog from a 2-month-old fluffball into a grown German Shepherd, which has given me firsthand experience caring for dogs through different stages of life. I also trained him to be friendly with my 3 cats, so I understand the patience and socialization it takes to help dogs & cats feel safe, comfortable, and happy at home. Available to check in on pet care every 2-4h daily on weekdays and weekends. I’m able to plan my day around walks, drop-ins, playtime, and drop ins. Your fluffy friend will stay in a clean, calm house with a secure fenced backyard for safe potty breaks and supervised outdoor time. Inside, I have extra rooms that can be used to create separate space when needed. Safety and comfort come first!
“We are are so happy with Claryssa & Dans service! Having someone comfortable with a X Large dog put our minds at ease! Our Bernese Mountain Dog Opie was safe happy and entertained in their care! We got lots of pictures of our boy relaxing and hanging with his new friends! We definitely will be using them again!!”
“Quinn helped me in a pinch and took such good care of my boy, allowing me peace of mind while I was away. She was very communicative, sent me frequent videos and photos which I LOVED, and really made sure Davey felt at home. I would absolutely book with her again!”
About: I’ve been living and taking care of dogs for more than 10 years. I also have experience in taking care of rabbits, ducks, cats and fish. I love spending time with animals of all kinds! Call me! I can work probably every Weekend, Wednesday and Thursday full day or anytime during the week. Feel free to give me a schedule! I am taking care of one 1-year-old Cockapoo girl dog now at my home. I can pet sit your dog or cat or any other pet and dog walking as well
“Absolutely noone could top the care they provided for Bella. Bella is a 15 yo senior partially blind and in diapers. They provided an exceptionally great care with much love. They followed all instructions and asked if there were any questions to her behaviors. Pictures followed frequently thru the day with updates. My dog was safe and greatly cared for. I couldn't be more happy with no worries. Bella was quite happy as well.”
About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs since I was a kid. I’ve always had a big heart for dogs and love showing them care and attention. As I’ve gotten older, my love for dogs has only grown. I enjoy being around them, playing with them, and making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. Depends on my college schedule but i’ll make time for dogs to care. I’ll like to glad to make time whenever you can. I’m a dog lover I understand that trusting someone with your dog is important. I will provide a safe, comfortable, and caring environment. I also want owners to communicate with me about their dog’s needs, routines, and behaviors.
About: I have been an animal lover my whole life and have taken care of my friends and families pets for years and highly experienced. I’m the manager at Your CBD Store and I dog/cat sit for many of my regulars who love our pet CBD! Especially senior dogs. I have a very flexible schedule and would love to take care of your fur baby! I work Tuesday-Friday 11am-6pm and 11am-4pm on Saturdays so I can come anytime before and after work! I’m off on Sundays and Mondays so on those days I can come whenever. I do offer boarding services but only small dogs that are good with cats. I’m a cat owner and I care/treat her like she is my actual child. I am like that with any pet that I care for. Nothing makes me happier than caring for an animal. I have grown up with animals my whole life, we always had dogs and cats. When I moved out when I was 18, every room mate that I’ve had, has either had a dog or a cat that I’ve helped care for. One of them actually had a Pitbull and she had 10 puppies that I took care of for months before they all got adopted. Whenever I go to a clients home, I always double check everything to make sure I am providing the most excellent care.
About: I have worked with dogs as little as 10 weeks to senior pups! I make sure they always feel comfortable, happy, and right at home. I want every pup in my care to feel comfortable, loved, and right at home. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and adjust their day based on their age, energy level, and individual needs. I provide attentive, responsible care and take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, comfort level, and specific needs before their stay or visit

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 Kent 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 Kent.
<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 Kent 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.
