“Mikayla was wonderful with my 2 dogs! She watched them for a few days while we were out of town. It was our first time using someone other than family to watch our dogs. She communicated with me daily, providing updates, photos and videos. She had no problem feeding them their raw food diet and was careful with my 7 yr old frenchie who has a few food allergies. She even made sure my 11 month old cane corso had a chance to run around the yard and get out all her puppy energy.”
“From the first day I.took my female Jack Russell to Gilligan's, i saw Maya change from shy girl to a social girl.I felt at ease and my wife loved the change also. I recommend this couple to anybody. ThK You Greg & Gillian....Richard and Isilma”
“My Daisy Mae had so much fun. A large, fenced in yard to run around. I loved all the pictures and videos that were sent. I knew she was well cared for and given lots of love. I will definitely book again.”
“Jack was fantastic. Our pup Mugi stayed with him for a week while we were on vacation and it seemed like he had a great time with the other dogs and Jack took great care of him. Jack's place is a little far from where we live, but we will definitely contact him again on our next family trip.”
“Excellent care for our dog as usual from Dan! Thanks as always for all the updates and pics of her over the week. We’ve always been very pleased with your services :)”
“Tiffany took a really good care of our puppy; I was happy to hear that she is home all day since he was not left alone. I was nervous to leave our puppy in somebody's else home for 10 days but there were no issues. He had a blast with his new friends and we had a great communication. I recommend Tiffany!”
“We don’t let anyone else watch our French bulldog. David takes her for plenty of walks, gives her lots of attention, and makes sure she gets her medication. She’s very happy with David, as are we!”
“Vanessa went above and beyond caring for my dog. He was well cared for including feeding, socialization, and exercise. He got to experience new surroundings and settings that included an exercise arena that he thoroughly enjoyed. I appreciate the time and attention given to him and would highly recommend anyone to trust their dog with Vanessa and her family. Thank You!”
“Tatiana took good care of our puppy. He had walks allong other dogs, she sent us pictures and made him feel comfortable away from home. She is a great groomer also; we were happy to find our energic puppy with a clean hair cut and cutted nails.”
“Marianne provided the perfect home away from home for my pup, who was very well cared over the couple of days she spent under her roof. I received lots of pics and videos and pupdates, and I know my dog would go back in a heartbeat! Can’t recommend Marianne highly enough.”
About: Had 3 jack russell terriers growing up, now I have a black lab/terrier puppy. I have a lot of experience with dogs. I have plenty of dog toys to play with and a nice grass yard out back. I work full time but come home for an hour in the middle of the day for lunch. I am free weekends and take my pup on walks on the nearby canal frequently I have a fenced yard out back of my house and a very dog friendly living space. My dog gets along great with others and loves to play.
“Brian is an awesome pet sitter and we appreciate that he was able to take our 3 dogs into his home. He was very accommodating to our quick travel needs to head out of town for a family funeral. Communication and updates were appreciated as well as his flexibility. Our 2 Chihuahuas are very anxious and uncomfortable with anyone other than family. After communicating with Brian I felt comfortable leaving them in his care and felt he would be able to handle their quirkiness. He also administered their medications. We will definitely be calling on Brian again for his services.”
“I can’t say enough good things about the experience we had leaving our pup with Candace. I was so nervous leaving my dog with a stranger because I know she can definitely be a handful and has an endless amount of energy. Candace was so amazing with her and consistently sent me pictures and updates on how she was doing. It was also great that my dog had other dogs to play with and get energy out. The entire experience allowed us to have a great vacation without worrying if our pup was taken care of!”
“Kim is AMAZING. I literally cannot understate how great she was with Bernie and I will be returning next time we go on vacation. Tons of pictures and it truly made us happy to see that he was having a great time while we were away.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and am comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to seniors who need a slower pace and extra attention. I take a calm, reliable approach and focus on each dog’s individual routine, safety, and comfort. What sets me apart is my peaceful, low-stress home in a quiet country setting in the town of Bleecker inside of the Adirondack Park, where dogs receive one-on-one attention, consistent care, and plenty of space to relax. Your dog will be treated like family and cared for as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m always home and structure my days around consistent feeding times, walks, play, and downtime, so dogs always have attention and companionship. Living in a quiet country setting allows for a calm, low-stress environment with plenty of space to relax and enjoy fresh air. I keep a predictable routine while adjusting to each dog’s individual needs, energy level, and comfort. Whether it’s daily walks, enrichment, or quiet companionship, caring for dogs is something I truly enjoy and prioritize. I live in a quiet country home with plenty of outdoor space. While I don’t have a fenced yard, dogs are always supervised and taken outside on a leash so they can safely explore and enjoy the fresh air. Safety is always my top priority. Please let me know if your pup is off-leashed trained, so I may work with them after they are comfortable on the property. Dogs in my care will also have the companionship of my friendly corgi, Ginger, who is well-socialized and enjoys being around other dogs. The newest addition to my household is Nori, a corgi puppy. She currently has a lot of energy and is in training, doing very well. I follow each dog’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs, and I provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for. Your dogs and my dogs are allowed on the couch and the bed. We love to snuggle up!

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.
96% of sitters in Lykers 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 Lykers 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 Lykers.
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 Lykers. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Lykers 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 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.
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.
