“Jamie and Brian were eager to answer any questions I had and get to know Bear during our meet and greet. Jamie sent frequent updates during his stay and followed all my care instructions. Bear is usually wary of men but he did great with Brian! We will definitely be back :)”
“Haley and her fur babies were amazing hosts to my little blind guy Luca. Always sending pictures and updates. Thank you so much for the peace of mind I got while having him stay with you.”
“Marie was able to help me in more ways then one. She was an excellent boarding choice, but also she was able to help me understand my dog when it came to understanding her behavior/needs and training her. I left her home with more tools in my toolbox for my dog.”
About: I grew up around animals. I have taken care of my own dogs, cats, rabbits and fish throughout my life. I have also taken care of friends pets when they’ve gone out of town. I am comfortable with large and small dogs, cats, and caged animals. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time for your pets. I have a 4yr old who is comfortable around animals and I am available for boarding if your animal is comfortable with men, women, and children. I live on a quiet street in an apartment and look forward to walking with your dog at my home or yours. I am comfortable working with multiple kinds of collars and leashes.

“Lucy has a great stay with Serafina and Sky! She has a great backyard and Sky couldn't be friendlier. They went on walks everyday and she even sent me pictures throughout the week!”
“This was our first time using Kristine for Cooper and he loved her. He was with her for a little over a week which was stressful but, she helped me relax by sending daily updates and pics❤️ He has been home for 24 hrs and has settled in nicely. I would recommend her!! Kristine, thank you and Frankie for having our Coopie?”
“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!”
“I’m above and beyond satisfied with Kaitlyn, She showed my little guy much love during his stay. Kaitlyn was consistent with providing text and video, I was able to enjoy my time away knowing my little guy was in safe hands and environment. Thanks Kaitlyn !!! You’re the best!!!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats all my life. I am happy to walk, bathe, feed, play, and cuddle! Comfortable administering meds or any other special requests. I recently lost my soul dog, so trying to get some extra dog love <3 I work full time but have a hybrid schedule! Usually work 9-5 M-F. Happy to check on pets before/after work and on lunch break. I have a small unfenced yard that I can take a dog to on leash. Happy to provide a crate if needed. Have loads of toys
“My dog has never been happier besides me the pics I’ve seen made me feel so confident and comfortable with Rachel taking care of my baby boy he stayed active and she gave him the same level of care that I would have and khai her fur baby added the love to all the fun he had and in the pics she sent we will be seeing her again thanks for the love and care it is appreciated!!!”
“Aimee was amazing with our baby Bacon! She sent updates and pictures daily and made sure he was happy and well cared for during his visit. We WILL be returning for all future boarding as long as she will have us ? absolutely incredible and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Thank you again Aimee!”
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.
“Thomas was amazing! He sent lots of pictures of fun adventures each day, and was flexible with us when our flight got delayed and we had to change when we were picking our dog up.”
“Mackenzie did an outstanding job caring for my dog Kobe. I was very pleased with the quality of care and found her to be reliable and trustworthy. She sent me regular updates on Kobe's situation which kept me happy knowing he was in good hands. I would go to her again in the future.”

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 Linwood 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 Linwood.
<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 Linwood 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.
