“Jennifer was amazing, incredibly patient and met with us before we boarded our son with her. She provided so many updates and addressed all of our needs and special requests with Ludo, and we would not hesitate to book her again. She truly worked to get to know Ludo to give him the best care possible.”
“So responsive to our texts and communication was great. She treated Ranger like a part of the family and send us lots of photos. Ranger got along with her dog and cat and we plan to have Ranger stay here again in the future”
“This is the first time I used Denise and was very happy with her watching my dogs. They seemed happy in the pictures she sent me. They came home fine. I would definitely recommend her and use her again.”
“Lu is so attentive and caring towards our dog. He takes her everywhere, sends pictures every day, and it is so wonderful to know that our dog is in great hands while we are away.”
“Thank you for taking such great care of my big guy! It is always easier leaving knowing he’s in good hands. I appreciated the regular updates and photos. Will be requesting to stay with Nick again in the future.”
“We trusted Rafaelina with our Shih Tzu Skoshi for a week while traveling quite far away. Communication was great, everything went smoothly, and Skoshi was in good spirits. Even cleaned all the bowls--great attention to detail. Thank you very much!”
“What a lovely family. They took such wonderful care of my Blossom. Diana sent me photos throughout Blossom’s stay that left me feeling like I made a good decision leaving her with them. Thank you so much. I know who to call for my next vacation.”
“We had such a wonderful experience! Dior felt right at home from the moment she arrived and was so well cared for during her stay. We loved getting updates and could tell she was receiving lots of attention, love, and even some extra treats. Especially because Dior was in heat we were so happy she was comfortable. The thoughtful gift keychain was such a sweet surprise and really showed how much they care about both pets and their owners. We came home to a happy pup and couldn't ask for more. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog!”
“Kevin did such a great job taking care of our Ruby girl, sending daily pics and updates that made us feel at ease. He was super attentive in listening to us about Ruby’s quirks and (craziness) and made her feel comfortable under his care. Ruby was so happy and looked like she had a great time with Kevin! Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Blanca. She kept us updated with photos. Our dog stayed with Blanca for 9 days. I would definitely leave my dog again with her.”
“Danielle was amazing and I'd highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. I was extremely nervous leaving my German shepherd for a week (the most she'd been away from me was 2 days) knowing that she'd have separation anxiety. Danielle sent me pictures everyday of my pup playing with her own dog and I felt better knowing they were having fun. When I went to pick up my dog, it was as if she didn't want to leave! She was so comfortable and happy, and I could tell by the way she interacted with Danielle and her family. I will definitely use Danielle again next time I'm going on vacation!”
“Shirley is the best! She is responsible, kind, and very communicative. We appreciated all the photos she shared and took comfort knowing that our puppy was in great hands with Shirley. You can tell that she is a true animal lover. Highly recommended!!”
“Our puppy Luna had the most amazing time! Jocelyn made sure that she had her daily exercise and playtime. We also received videos, pictures, and updates during the 3 days she spent at Jocelyn’s home which made us so happy and reassured. Best puppy stay for sure, highly recommended!”
“Julia was terrific! She and Bailey hit it off right away. Got a bunch of pics with Bailey out for a walk, playing with toys and a restful night sleep. Will use Julia again!”
About: I genuinely love for animals of all sizes and personalities. My experience goes beyond dogs and cats—I’ve also cared for smaller pets, including bunnies and guinea pigs, so I understand that every animal has unique needs and deserves gentle, attentive care. Growing up in Ukraine, I had a cat who was a special part of my life and helped me develop a lifelong appreciation for the companionship animals bring. After moving to New York, I also had a dog with my partner, which gave me firsthand experience with the daily responsibilities of dog ownership and the importance of keeping a pet happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Since my schedule is flexible, I can offer plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, whether they’re playful and energetic, shy and cautious, or happiest relaxing in a cozy spot. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to adapt to their routines so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Some days I work from the office and some days I work from home, and sometimes I have flexible schedule where I have to leave the house for a few hours and then come back (I work in real estate and have flexible schedule). Also my mom works from home and she will be helping me with pet care. We live together so this way we have the flexibility to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day - and someone is always around. I can easily accommodate their usual schedules, from regular walks and mealtimes to play sessions and cozy breaks. I want every pet in my care to feel relaxed, secure, and loved, just as they would at home. Every pet has a unique personality, and I believe the best care starts with understanding what makes them happy and comfortable. Before a stay, I like to learn about your pet’s age, breed, temperament, daily routine, feeding schedule, and favorite activities. It’s also important for me to know about any medical needs, medications, fears, or triggers so I can provide attentive, individualized care. My goal is to make the transition as smooth as possible and ensure your pet feels safe, understood, and at ease.
“I was so fortunate to have found Anastasiia to watch our dog Axel when we traveled to Europe. We had booked a sitter who cancelled - leaving us with very little time to find another over the holiday season. We had Anastasiia was reasonably priced compared to some of the other sitters available (watch out for price gouging during the holidays). I had booked someone who was less expensive but when we did the meet and great, I saw that they were using Rover to run a kennel: 10 dogs kept in an 8x6 garage - with no one home! I took a chance on Anastasiia because she is new to Rover. When I met her in her home, I could tell right away that Axel would be in good hands! The home is charming and so was Anastasiia's partner :-). During Axel's stay he got to go to the park and play and even got to go on a hike. Anastasiia asked me if it was ok to take him and how he was in the car. The pictures of their adventure made me smile :-). I was sent lots of pictures during Axel's stay - most either playing or lounging lol Axel was in good spirits when we picked him up. I felt comfortable and confident that my family member was being given good care while we were overseas. I highly recommend.”
“This was the first time being away from our dog and Nicole did a great job at making him and my family feel at ease! She regularly kept me updated with messages and pictures and took very good care of him. Will definitely use her again!”
“Valentina is simply the best! She took care of our girls like they were little princesses. They absolutely adore her! She is incredibly kind, loving, and caring, and it’s clear how much love she puts into what she does. We couldn’t recommend her more! ❤️”
“The best dog sitter I have met. Daisy was so happy with them. They were so attentive to her and always sending me pictures of all the fun and activities they had with daisy. I will gladly have her as my dog sitter for daisy whenever I need and would definitely recommend to anybody who needs a dog sitter. Thank you so much Veronique you are the best. ☺️😬”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mill Neck
We used Samantha K. while visiting from out of town for a wedding, and we could not have been happier! It is always stressful leaving your pup in an unfamiliar city, but Samantha K gave us total peace of mind. We received regular updates and photos, which allowed us to fully relax and enjoy the wedding celebrations knowing our dog was in great hands. They were incredibly professional, flexible with our shifting schedule, and truly loved our dog like their own. We highly recommend Samantha K to anyone—local or traveling!"

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.
94% of sitters in Mill Neck 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 Mill Neck 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 Mill Neck.
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.

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.

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.
