“Tessa and Tyler did amazing with our very high energy puppy! This was his first time being away from us! We loved getting regular updates and they even sent him home with a little goodie bag! Bronco came home a very happy boy!”
“Claire did an amazing job with our dog. She was consistently sending updates and pictures. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to dogs and I know our dog was well taken care of. I will definitely be using her again!”
“I highly recommend Shay, she took such great care of my adolescent puppy! She has a very nice set up in her home to accommodate pets. She is very calm and gentle with animals and genuinely cares about their happiness!”
“This was our second time using Ying and it was fantastic! He has really bonded with our dog and made him very comfortable. Ying gives him lots of attention and exercise and the two of them have quickly become good friends. We are so happy to have found Ying!”
“Hamilton loved staying with Cecilia and her family over the holidays! I received updates and photos throughout his stay and Cecilia was very flexible with scheduling. Thank you so much for taking great care of him!”
“I would highly recommend Caleb to everyone! At our meet and greet, he asked a ton of questions about my pup, Atticus, and took notes of his needs and habits. Atticus is a very itchy boy and the fact that he came home without any hotspots is a testament to Caleb's attentiveness to care. Given the opportunity, I would not hestitate to book with Caleb again. He's also a great dog photographer, to say the least!”
About: I have experience with small Chihuahua breeds, and have grown up alongside Labs, Pitties and Rottweilers. I personally have trained our rottie on leash manners along with the many other dogs we’ve had growing up. I am an animal person through and through and through. I treat every animal to their specific needs for space, playtime, and rest time. I am currently working full time, but have evening availability 6 days per week. I have open availability two days per week and am open to last minute bookings. I am a responsible and detail oriented person who puts your pets needs first! We have a current puppy in training so I’m open to dogs of all ages. We have a fenced in yard, a nearby park and plenty of walking trails so there is the option to take your pups on walks if they are high energy. I have experience with small Chihuahua breeds, and have grown up alongside Labs, Pitties and Rottweilers. We love all shapes and sizes here!
“Journey was absolutely amazing! I will take Maverick to stay with Journey anytime we are in the area and need a safe and friendly place for him. Maverick was so content and did not appear to be stressed in anyway. 5 golden stars!!”
“Sarah and Anthony were the perfect sitters for our little dog. They also have a big dog and small dog to keep her company. Their house is very dog friendly as are they, thank you so much for taking such good care of her and sending pictures. This experience could not have been better!”
“This was our first time using rover! Sabrina was super accommodating with my schedule/change of plans and our dog was such a happy girl when we came to pick her up. I loved getting the photo updates as well. I would recommend Sabrina to anyone in need of a pet sitter. :)”
“Teresa took such great care of my mature dog while we were away for a weekend. She sent updates and pics of the fun they were having together - her love for animals is obvious. I highly recommend her for boarding or any other care you may need for your pet.”
About: I have experience cat sitting for both a young kitten and adult cats, so I understand that cats of different ages have different needs and personalities! Beyond feeding, I’m comfortable administering medications, cleaning litter boxes, playing with them, and making sure they get plenty of love and attention. I know some cats are more playful while others prefer their own space, so I always make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I love using pets as a way to relax and decompress after a long day while eing able to care for something else that has helped me so much throughout my life. I hope to include pet care throughout my day to give pets the best life that they deserve! I care for an animal based off the owners ad the pets needs, while also considering resources available to me. I am open to adapting and adjusting to whatever environment works the best for you and your pet.
About: I am an avid lover of animals and take my treatment of them to heart. I can keep your pup or kitty very happy and very healthy. My last old guy was a diabetic with a thyroid condition for the last 8 years of his life (2 insulin shots a day. 2 thyroid pills a day.) I’m very comfortable with giving medicine or shots to any animal. That includes emergency situations or routine management for the fur babies. My schedule is very flexible right now. I’m available most every day except for special occasions. I have a routine cancellation policy, but I’m pretty chill. I have a big fenced yard with beautiful grass and lots of things to smell. My house is single story with lots of open space for zoomies.
“Dominique and Josiah were amazing, they took such great care of my dog and 2 bunnies for more days then planned due to unforeseen circumstances, alleviating my stress about getting home asap. I will happily ask them again in the future, and hope they will take us, they really went above and beyond, Thank you both from the bottom of my heart!”
“Brandy was awesome! Traveling through town and needed a last minute dog sitter for our young dog. Brandy was super accommodating and completely set our minds at ease by sending us photos and updates throughout her stay (first time leaving our dog with a sitter). Brandy's dogs are super sweet and seem very comfortable with having dog guests. Overall just a fantastic experience!”
“fantastic. care. we were apprehensive leaving our baby and Tina & James were amazing! Updates with pictures were sent with great little notes attached. We highly recommend. Thank you!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 246 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Latham. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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.
98% of sitters in Latham 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 Latham 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 Latham.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Latham. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Latham 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 OR 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
