“Daniel watched our one and a half year old cockapoo for a long weekend. Our pup had a great time. Daniel sent daily updates and took him for walks. There is a fenced in yard which was great too! We will definitely book again for future trips.”
“Pepper had a good time with Amy and her family. Amy is very easy to communicate with and she sent updates with pictures/video. We will definitely schedule a play date with Amy in the next couple of weeks.”
“Sara was wonderful. Our first time using a dog sitter and I was anxious about the experience. Would the boys behave, or would the sitter really give them attention? Well yes and definitely yes. The experience was great for us and the doggos. Our dogs are a large breed and a giant breed. Sara didn't have any qualms about their sizes and we were able to relax and enjoy a weekend away. Would absolutely use Sara's services again. Highly recommend.”
“I am very happy with the care that my Dallas received while staying with Christina. Dallas is a timid dog and I was concern that she would have problems being away from home. But she was fine, Christina took good care of her and that means a lot to me. I like to travel twice a year and I will be using Christina for all of my future travels!”
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals since I was 8. My passion for dogs will never stop growing. I have worked with dogs for 4 plus years now, from boarding, grooming and all around care. I treat and love every dog like my own. Use this link to get $20 off on your first booking! https://www.rover.com/sit/sabris67056 I’m currently in online school pursing my bachelors, so I have extra time on my hands. I will be in school for the next year. So why not do what I love, right? I have a very friendly dog who is very gentle with all dogs. If your pup stays with me they can be separated with no issue if you prefer. Or have a bestfriend to play with. I have my vet assistant certification to know if there are any abnormal issues or concerns with your pups. I also have 4 plus years of working in a dog boarding kennel so I worked with many breeds including large dog breeds.
“Cindy was wonderful! She happily accepted our 5 year old Lab for a 4 day stay with only 4 day’s notice. Just when we were feeling guilty about not bringing Sybil on our trip a pic of her looking comfy and happy would show up to make us smile and know she was being taken good care of. Sybil enjoyed her stay at Cindy’s beautiful property and enjoyed her walks in the country too! Absolutely top notch stay in every regard.”

About: Hello all! I’m Michael, and I looking forward to caring for your pup. I’m experienced with all ages and I treat every pup like part of the family. (Due to my current living situation, I am ONLY allowed to dog board/house-sit hypoallergenic dogs or dogs that shed minimally.) Let’s connect! My availability varies throughout the week but I can be more than flexible to accommodate your pets needs. Whether it’s taking your dog for a quick walk or boarding for a weekend, I’m your guy. I care for pets by trying to keep a clean environment at all times. Cleanliness is very important to me as I find it very important for general health.
About: I recently had a German shepherd that lived to 14 years old. I know how to care for senior dogs, I know what it entails. I have no problem administering medicine. He also wasn't friendly with other dogs and I know it's hard to find sitters who also don't have animals. I do not have any animals in my home which will allow me and my family to give all the time, love and attention to your fur baby. I am a stay-at-home mom so I can give your pet plenty of attention. I have a fenced-in backyard that your dog can roam and I like to go on walks. Your dog is allowed to freely roam around my home. I can also crate if needed if you provide the crate. I have a fenced backyard that the dog can access at any time and I have 3 children who would absolutely LOVE to play with and spoil your dog once home from school. If I am at a client's home, I can do whatever the client would like me to do. Feed, fill up the water bowl, administer medicine, let the dog outside and play with him/her in the backyard for a while. I just want the animal to feel comfortable, loved and taken care of.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mechanicstown
Daniel was great with Nova! I ended up booking with him for back-to-back stays, and both times he was extremely nice, understanding, accommodating, and easy to work with. Nova was very comfortable with him, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I’d definitely recommend Daniel and would absolutely book with him again!
Alexis was so great! My Rosie absolutely loves her! Alexis sent me pictures every day with updates on her. When I picked her up after 4 days she wasn’t trying to pull me out of Alexis’ home which she usually does when I’ve picked her up from other places she’s stayed. Rosie was very well cared for and I highly recommend Alexis! Thank you for the love and care you gave her!

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 Mechanicstown 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 Mechanicstown.
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.
You and your Mechanicstown 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.
