“Guy was wonderful in taking special care of our elderly dog Oli. We would recommend Guy for dog care, he was very tentative to Oli’s special needs. Guy kept us updated on how Oli was doing and even sent a picture. Thanks again for taking care of him while we were on vacation! Lorraine and Rich”
“Wonderful experience! Emmy is a warm and friendly person who took great care of our Collie. She was patient and flexible about drop off and pick up and is great with communication - sent us lovely pictures of our pooch. Highly recommended and we will definitely be coming back. Thanks Emmy!”
“Erica was an amazing sitter for our Ellie. We had a longer trip out of town and we were nervous to leave her for that length of time. Erica was so kind and loving to Ellie! She made our trip bearable. We received daily photos and videos along with text updates. We could tell how much fun Ellie was having with Erica and her dogs. This was an amazing experience and we look forward to booking with Erica again. She will be our first call from now on!”
“Maggie took great care of Rocky and kept us updated throughout our trip. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their precious pet!”
“Tatyjana was honestly amazing l, I have never left my pup with anyone outside of my family and was so anxious hoing out of town for two weeks, but he had the absolute best time and recieved the best care! I was updated daily with pictures and my questions before and during his stay were met with quick and detailed responses. I am happy to find a new sitter for my baby and will continue to book with her!”
“Jackie was excellent. This is the first time I’ve ever used any type of boarding school for my little guy George. She had asked me every procedure that I do to take care of him and was able to do it with no problem at all. I will be using Jackie in the future. That’s for sure! Thank you so much Jackie.”
“Sarah was great with our dog Belle! She was super sweet and easy to communicate with. She wanted to know every detail so that Belle could be as comfortable as possible. She also sent pictures daily which made me feel better. You can tell that Sarah has a love for animals and is very passionate about watching yours. I would recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“This was our first time using Rover.com and it was a great experience. Dan and Claryssa and their two small friendly dogs welcomed our big dog Dixey into their home. The dogs shared their toys and cozy couches with her. Dan played Dixies favorite rawhide game with her and Claryssa regularly sent us pictures of her adventures. During the two cold weeks we were gone it was a real comfort to know our dog was warm and well cared for.”
About: I do not have a pet on my own due to my frequent travel schedule but that only means that your pet will get that extra love I have to share. I am caring and attentive, I notice the little things—each pet’s quirks, moods, and routines—and respond with patience. Your little or big friend will not get bored while in my care. I am a drafter working for an architectural company in Cheektowaga, my schedule is 8-5 every weekday. I love long walks after work in the evening, so don’t hesitate to shoot me a message even if the walk is needed within an hour! I will do my best to comfort your pet while you are away, I can play and train them, go on long walks, also if needed I can take a dog to a dog park or to vet appontments.
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received. Toktam was incredibly kind and attentive, making sure my dog felt comfortable and happy the entire time. I received regular updates, which showed how well my dog was doing and how much care she put into every detail. I highly recommend Toktam to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter.”
“Jaddua was amazing! He sent me regular updates and pictures of my dog who stayed at their place for 6 days! My dog came back happy and well loved 🥰 would definitely recommend for anyone looking for dog sitters 😊”
About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember and have been pet-sitting since age 10 for family, friends, and neighbors. I have almost always lived with at least one cat or dog (or both!) throughout my life. I also have experience caring for rabbits, ferrets, gerbils, fish, parakeets, bearded dragons, and cockatiels. I currently live with two indoor tortoiseshell cats who are comfortable with dogs, and one of my cats is leash-trained. I have raised and trained at least 11 dogs from puppies to adulthood (3 as my own and the others for my parents). Most of my cats I adopted as teenagers, but I have raised a few kittens from a young age. I have done extensive dog training with the 3 dogs I raised as my own in the past, and I am familiar with both dog and cat training techniques. I live in a cabin the woods in Boston, NY, on a power line gravel road. Although I do not have a fenced in back yard, your dog will enjoy going on leashed walks down the power line road multiple times per day! I earn a living through a mix of substitute teaching (summer starts June 25th!), remote research and writing gigs, tutoring, child care, and pet care. I have a flexible schedule and incorporate pet care into the mix as much as possible because I love animals. If I am boarding a dog at my home, I will not be house sitting at that time (and vice versa). While boarding or house sitting, I will consider dog walking and drop-ins depending on the needs of the client and driving distance. If you board your dog at my home, my cats and I wake up early (about 6am) and I like to go outside for a walk down the power line road right away, and then eat breakfast. Your dog will be able to spend time with me all day (on a leash when we are outside), and if I need to leave my house, they will be in their crate for no more than 4 hours (2 is my strong preference). We will go for at least one more walk before dinner, too. I will be sure to give them plenty of play time and exercise throughout the day (depending on their level of activity and how hot it is outside). No matter what, they will get a lot of love and attention! I live in a cabin in the woods in the Town of Boston, NY, so although I do not have a fenced-in yard, there is very little traffic or people around. I will be able to go on long leashed walks with your dog down the power line for exercise, and there are a few friendly neighbor dogs that would love to say hello if your dog is up for that. I do live with two cats: one of them will hide a lot while your dog is here, but the other is very dog-friendly and will want to interact with your dog. I will monitor and separate them as needed (I have a spare room). I have always crate-trained my dogs and so long as your dog is comfortable in their crate, I will use it as a safe place for them to be while they are staying with me.
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life since before I can remember! I have been trained by the local humane society for dog walking and care. I currently do not have any animals in my house but always am open to have a friend stay over! I always grew up with animals and live with my two best friends who are just as animal loving as I am! I work 8-4 Monday through Friday but am only in the office Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday. I am available really whenever and can always stop in throughout the day if neededtkk. I am up early almost everyday and am super flexible with whatever! I have a fence at my house that is closed off from any road area. I’m super active and love being outside. I love walking and am comfortable with most accommodations.
“I’m so happy that I found Melinda! She took great care of Genie. Lots of updates everyday and always very responsive! Definitely would love to have her sitting Genie if there are needs in the future!”
About: Hi there! My name is Kayla and I have been a dog lover since I got my first dog at 7 years old. I grew up with a Golden Retriever (Jeter), when he passed I was devastated, but knew I could not live without a dog in my life. I got a mini golden doodle (Rylee) who is currently 4 years old. I also ended up adopting a heeler/dachshund mix (Mavis) who is 7 months old. I have experience working with all different sized animals of all ages. I took care of my senior dog, assisting him with a broken leg and have experience with puppies and training. Pets are family and I know how important it is to find a caring and loving individual to be with your pet, let me be that person for you! I am currently a school counselor with many days off during the summer and breaks. I am able to board your furry friend on weekends and during days off! I am available every day for dog walks after 3:30pm. With my love for animals, I will ensure endless cuddles and playtime for your pet. I live on 3 acres of land with enough space for your pet to run and play. Right up the road is my mother’s house who lives on 60 acres of land and a pond if your dog likes to swim where I can take them to anytime! If your dog is crate training or trained, I would love to set that up for you.
“We needed a place for Sam to stay on the spur of the moment and we found Monique on Rover. We were updated frequently during her stay with pics and creative captions. Sam was so well cared for and enjoyed the company of the two resident canines immensely ! Thank you so much for providing such great care Monique!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was young, helping neighbours, friends, and family by walking, feeding, bathing, and giving lots of love and attention. Pet care is naturally part of my routine. I can set aside time each day for feeding, walks, and play to ensure pets stay healthy, active, and well cared for. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I follow their usual routines with feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I also provide plenty of attention, keep their space clean, and ensure they feel safe and happy while their owners are away.
About: I’ve always taken care of pets when I was younger, I’ve walked and watched my family,friends and even my neighbors pets! I have always been good with animals. Your dogs will enjoy their daily walks with me I’ll take care of your pets and home like it was my own. When your puppy stays with me they will feel love, safe, and care while you are away. I currently work a small part time job but only work three days out of the week, would like to do this full time! On my days off I would love to help walk or pet sit your pet. Feel free to message me! I promise to keep your pet safe and they are in good hands with me. I’ll treat them like my very own! And with your permission will give them treats.

Our Sugar loved staying with Alexis and her family. I was worried as we never been separated before. She was dumped in a box next to a dumpster prior to our adopting her so I was concerned she will feel abandoned again. But she felt loved and thr fact they also had a dog and 2 cats helped her feel at home as we also have two cats. Wonderful experience for Sugar. Thank you.

There are 335 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lancaster. About 94% of Lancaster sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
