“Jessica and her husband were clearly so patient and understanding about sitting for a senior dog. Salto came back happy and excited! They sent regular photos and updates. I would absolutely have Salto stay with them again if we are in the area.”
“Sonia is amazing!! She LOVES dogs and took great care of Moonie. She shares photos and videos for everyday updates. our dog had wonderful time with Misty (Sonia’s dog) and other dogs for day care and boarding. Will certainly back to Sonia for day care or boarding again in the future.”
“First time boarding with Randi and it was an incredibly smooth experience. Randi is extremely flexible and was a life saver for when we were away on a multi city driving trip. We were watching the weather in case we needed to abandon our plans and come back home mid trip. Randi was extremely flexible and accommodating and I am so grateful for that. Our dog is a picky eater and is also on some tricky meds…and Randi kept in touch with regular updates. She persevered with attempts to get her to eat both food and meds, until our dog did finally start to eat! Our dog came home happy and healthy! We will definitely board with Randi again!”
“Irene and her family are warm, kind, communicative and very responsible dog boarders - our dog Ollie likes being with them so much he barely registers when I drop him off and comes home happy and calm after staying with Irene. I can’t recommend her more for watching your pup!”
“Isael was so awesome! He was extremely calm with our rambunctious aussiedoodle, took her on runs daily, and sent so many pictures. She came home happy and exhausted. He was also super flexible with timing, which was very appreciated.”
“Jessica and her family were the perfect hosts for our dog. We felt comfortable that our pup was with a nice family who treated her as one of their own. We received regular updates and communication was excellent.”
“Dew was wonderful! Our sweet girl can be nervous and uneasy in new situations and Dew was endlessly patient and warm putting her at ease while she was staying with her. Dew sent pictures adn updates to keep us in the loop and was super quick in responding to any questions we had! I would absolutely recommend her and hope to have her pet sit Sankaty for us again!”
“Jomini and her family took wonderful care of our sometimes anxious little dachshund mix. She sent us pictures and updates every day. I recommend her and wound use her again to host our dog”
“Juliet was treated very well and was happy and energetic when we picked her up. Barbara is very responsive to our emerging needs for pet sitting and gave many updates while Juliet was at her home. Highly recommend Barbara for you pets vacations.”
“Tabitha and her family took care of our dog Penny for over a week and it was a fantastic experience. She was very communicative / accommodating, would send us daily pictures and videos, and we felt very comfortable with her. You could tell they enjoyed taking care of dogs and treating them as their own. Penny seemed very happy with her stay. We would definitely use them again!”

About: Hi My name is Stacy, I live in Cortlandt Manor, NY and have been keeping tails wagging and paws prancing for over 23 years in Westchester, NY. I provide pet sitting services in Cortlandt Manor, Peekskill, Mohegan Lake, Croton, Yorktown, Putnum, Montrose Jefferson Valley, and Briarcliff. I can accommodate drop-in visits for dog walks and feedings and love doing drop-in visits for cats to ensure they get enough playtime and attention. I am available for the summer and upcoming holidays for 2026. I am also accepting boarding for small to medium-size dogs.

I have experience sitting for large dogs, small dogs, puppies, older dogs and lots of cats. I am also very comfortable giving pills to dogs and some shots for diabetic cats. As an experienced pet sitter, my priority for every pet is to make sure they are safe and totally pampered. I take great pride in sending adorable pictures and notes to clients to ensure they have real time updates to see their pets are happy and comfortable with me. Pet owners can feel relaxed knowing their pet is in great care while they are away. If you would like to set up a free meet and greet, please contact me. I am available for meet and greets during weekdays after 4:00 pm and I am very flexible on weekends. I work remotely now and I am available for boarding during the week and weekends and can do drop in walks and visits both during the week and on weekends I require at least 72hrs notice for boarding. I only take in one pet at a time, so I can ensure they get my full attention and can feel comfortable and pampered in my home. I will walk dogs three times a day if needed and try to keep to their regular routines.
“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!”
“Rocky had a great time at Ken and Irene's. He had a lot of fun hanging with all of the other dogs. Irene kept us up to date with ongoing texts and photos of Rocky throughout our 5-day vacation. I would highly recommend them to others.”
“Angie was great. She understands cat well. We left our kitten to her place, she took care of her and we didn’t have to worry about her. She was also flexible with the timings which I really appreciate as we were running late from our trip. She shared with us pictures of our cat and we felt relieved.”

“What a great experience. I love getting updates, and being reassured that my pup is having a good time and also getting what he needs. Valerie is conscientious, for example, she walked my dog before I came to make sure that he had his needs met before a long drive with me. Got an along well with her dog, in a family setting with a backyard — really appreciate her care.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Millwood
Grace was excellent with our dog, Leni. He had some serious separation anxiety when we dropped him off and went on a hunger strike for several days. Not only did Grace keep us hell informed, she went above and beyond in trying to make Leni feel comfortable in her home and went as far as spoon feeding him to get him to eat. We're so thankful for all that she did to take care of Leni. I would highly recommend Grace to anyone looking for a loving and caring home in which to leave their pup while traveling. Thank you, Grace!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

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.
95% of sitters in Millwood 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 Millwood 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 Millwood.
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 Millwood. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Millwood 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.
