About: I’ve been around dogs all my life! I grew up in the country side of Ireland and had many sheep dogs through my childhood. My love for animals started at a young age and quickly learned how smart and special they truly are. Through out the years I’ve developed an intuitive approach to caring for each animals individual personality and needs. This is my full time job Monday through Friday. Rates are listed but please note ! (Anything over 8hrs is an additional $20/hr) for daycare. I have a fenced yard for your dog to play and would never have more than 5/6 dogs at a time.I also live in a very walkable neighborhood with sidewalks and I’m close to , parks, farms, and nature hikes. Sadly I no longer have a pup of my own as he recently passed away.
“Matthew and Mackenzie were awesome! They cared for our great dane mix puppy for a week and on short notice. Our one yr old dog Buddy is a big mush ball but is cautious when meeting new people. He immediately took to them and their dog charlie. They sent us updates and pictures every day which really gave us a lot of comfort knowing he was in good hands and enjoying himself, getting walks everyday, playing with charlie and sleeping on the sofa or his bed. We highly recommend Matt and kenzie if you are looking for someone to care for your dog in a home/family environment .”


About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Starting with dogs, cats, pigs, cows, goats and fish. Caring for a pet builds patience, empathy, and unconditional love. In addition to caring for my personal pets I also help take care of dogs with our neighbors before and at work with one dog and two cats. I’m currently working part time after school hours Monday to Thursday so basically free during the day and can work all day Friday plus weekend if needed but it really depends on the time or day you need I will accommodate. I have a small backyard and extra room which we normally call sunroom for now with one of my dogs that can accompany your dog. I can easily crate your dog as well if needed. I have one in my house that my dog stopped using for a while.
About: I’ve taken care of animals for over 15 years. I pet sat many times as a child and continued through adulthood including, walking, feeding, administering medicine, baths & snuggles! I also volunteered at a local animal shelter as a dog walker. Currently 3 cats and a rambunctious German Shepard/Siberian Husky 3 years old. I have cared for all kinds of pets including but not limited to goats, chickens, horses, pigs, donkeys etc I’m currently working full time but have a very flexible schedule and can move my hours around to meet your needs especially for early morning and later evening check ins or during work hours! I have worked with leash trained and non leash trained dogs if you have a fenced in yard. I prefer leash trained dogs for public walks with a standard leash. I love animals, their snuggles & kisses too! I have kids & animals so drool & slobber don’t bother me!
“Daniela took exceptional care of my fur-baby, keeping me up to date with beautiful pictures and messages. I recommend her 100% 😀 Thank you Daniela, you are the pet sitter I always needed.”

“Amazing! Gave us the total peace of mind during our vacation! Was communicative throughout the trip with photos and videos to reassure he was doing well. We recommend her and will have her be his caretaker again for sure. Thank you”

“Hila was a phenomenal sitter for our dog! We needed a sitter very last minute for our wedding weekend since our original sitter canceled. She really helped us out in a pinch and even stood in as a handler for him at our wedding! Without her, we wouldn’t have been able to have our dog (son) be a part of our wedding and we will never be able to thank her enough! She sent plenty of updates along the way and I knew the whole time he was in great hands! 11/10 service and highly recommend!”


About: As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. I’ll take time to learn your dog’s routine, follow your instructions, and give them plenty of attention during our walks and visits. My goal is to help your pup feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I balance pet care with my work and school schedule, offering walks and drop-in visits during my available hours. Please message me to discuss your pet’s routine and confirm availability before booking. I’ll follow your instructions closely to keep your pet safe and comfortable. During walks and visits, I’ll check that leashes and doors are secure, respect your home, and send photos and updates so you know how your pet is doing.
“We had a need to board our pet for overnight stay. I contacted Ciara and can say it was the best thing that happened. From the moment our doggie saw her her till he came back, it felt like he had known her for a long time. Ciara clearly loves pets, she was very responsive and took care of our dog very well. When we got our dog back it seemed like he wanted to go again with Ciara! We now know that anytime we will need to board our dog, we’re going to contact Ciara. Thank you Ciara for taking care of our dog!”

“Phalisity was a great sitter for my dog Prince. She was ready to receive him on time. She sent pictures of him which reassured me that he was well taken care of and comfortable. She had him prepared for pick up in a timely manner. I will definitely reach out to Rover again to request Phalisity’s service. I am grateful of your service. Mrs. Harris”

About: I've taken care of animals for what feels like my entire life. I have raised two gorgeous dachshunds and have two crazy hot dogs currently. Love both cats and dogs, and I enjoy taking the dogs for walks. I have taken care of both puppies and seniors, and both need lots of care. I take care of my friends pets when they are away, and groom my own dogs. I work full-time and am generally able to do walks or visits anytime on the weekends. I cannot block out specific times on this site, and leave things mostly as available, HOWEVER, I am free after 4pm on Monday’s and Tuesday’s. Wednesday thru Friday I am only free before 10:30am or after 7:30pm. So please keep that in mind when requesting services. Friends have either lent me keys or smart access to go in and care for their pets and plants. I will usually go in, play, walk and feed (or just walk and play depending on needs). I have taken care of their pets overnight while they're away and have stayed at their homes for extended vacations, if need be. My pets are friendly, playful and curious. They do well with both senior and puppies. All three of my pets are crate trained. The puppy is currently in the process of crate training now. I do not like to leave pets unattended for too long. Dogs that have not been socialized, are not cat friendly, or are aggressive may be problematic to board, as I do have pets in the home. I will work doggy dayplay and stays around any dog walks that are prearranged. Occasionally, I can do last minute appointments, but typically like to schedule out the week ahead. I take care of my two dogs daily, so adding another to the mix is typically no problem. I treat all pets like they are my own. I love animals and I will try to work with them as much as possible while ensuring everyone’s safety. I follow the owners requests when going into client homes and will ensure any requests or dietary concerns are addressed if they are dropped off.

“Alexa was a wonderful sitter! Our dog is a puppy who is several months old and we were worried about leaving him with a stranger for but she treated him like her own dog and was super sweet. She was also very responsive and flexible around drop-off/pick-up. I look forward with booking with Alexa again!”

“I cannot say enough great things about Wanda. She treated my Mini Schnauzer Gotham like her own. He loved all the walks she took him on and her great big yard. He also loved her mini poodle Romeo that kept him company. Wanda kept in touch throughout his stay with pics and updates. I am so happy we found Wanda and already booked Gotham's next visit.”

“Dawn was absolutely amazing. She sent photos and videos and made me feel like she really cared about Zuki very much. we can’t wait to have zuki with dawn again. thank you so much!”

“Jillian was great with our dog Rufus! He loved the freedom of the large fenced in backyard that he could freely roam and run around in with Jillian's two dogs! Rufus made new friends! We highly recommend Jillian and will definitely book with Jillan again soon!”


“Highly recommended!! Lauren took great care of my pup while I was away for the weekend. She sent me pictures and regular updates throughout the day to keep my mind at ease. I will definitely use her again!”

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 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
