“Brigid was amazing with my little Peach. She took great care of her and gave her lots of affection. Knowing Peach was with Brigid gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her!”
“We are so fortunate to have met Kyle. It is clear how much she loves dogs and goes to great lengths to be sure that they are comfortable. She sends lots of updates, pictures and videos, so the parents are put at ease as well. Our anxious pup was immediately at home, and came back happy and tired from all of the play. Thank you to our new friend Kyle for spoiling our fur baby!”
“Once again Gillian and family went above and beyond taking care of Cooper. He was there for almost 2 weeks, with eye medication and a limited appetite; Gillian didn’t hesitate to say yes to watching Cooper, making him his own meals some days, rinsing his eyes and figuring out the best way to put the eye drops in. I always know that Coop is getting the best care and being treated just like part of the family. Thank you so much Gillian, Mitch and all the pups that make him feel at home. 🩷”
“Kimberly was so kind to take Toby my 19-lb Havenese dog very last minute! I have a bad wrist fracture and was not able to take care of him properly. She took such great care of him with only hours’ notice. I will definitely use her services again!”
“Anthony and Jane were fantastic. Great communicators, really nice setup on their property with tons of space and a fenced yard. My dog got along well with theirs. Will definitely book again.”
“My dogs have stayed with Marisa multiple times. My male dog has a great time playing with her dog. My timid female dog usually takes a while to adjust, but has gotten more comfortable and follows Marisa around. Marisa is very accommodating and has always been available when I've needed a sitter.”
“Dan was fabulous! He welcomed our pup who was very nervous to be away from home and also kept us updated with pictures and status throughout the day. Will definitely use Dan again!”
“Jasper seemed very happy and well cared for when we picked him up. He needed a bit of extra care in the beginning of his stay. Deanne followed all of the instructions perfectly. Deanne sent lots of updates and pictures during his stay.”
“I’m very satisfied with Kathleen's service. She cared for my puppy excellently. This was my first experience, and I am glad my Simba found a caring home while I’m away. I travel for work and feel confident I can rely on her in the future. Thank you! Roya Ross”
“Excellent, excellent, excellent! Vera where were you when my children were in daycare??! Your professionalism is outstanding! My family and I truly appreciate you and the care you give our fur baby! Thank you again. We will see you soon.”
“Jack did a great job taking care of our dog during our week long vacation. He kept us updated by sending pictures and videos. He picked up and dropped off our dog which was very convenient. He also administered his medication. We highly recommend Jack.”
“Teddy stayed with Pamela while we were on vacation, she sent us photos and updates about teddies stay. We were very pleased and thank ful for the way Pamela took care of teddy. This is the first time for teddy to stay with anyone except a family member. When we picked teddy up, he was very happy and content. Thank you Pamela, I hope we will be able to have teddy stay with you next time we go on vacation..”
“This was our first time leaving our dog with anyone else that wasn’t my parents nor my husband’s parents. We were a little nervous but Bob and his wife reassured us that everything will be just fine and they were right! They took great care of our dog and even sent us photos! It was our wedding weekend. We got married at Windham manor and they even brought our dog to the venue so she can be part of the wedding day and picked her up. They were fantastic!”
“Jessica is a great pet sitter! She has watched my dog twice now, and our dog was so excited to come back after the first visit. She is an excellent communicator and sends pictures each day, which I love! I highly recommend her.”
“Candice was amazing and we could tell our dog Zoey had a great time with their family! Very responsive and punctual with both pick up and drop off. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a sitter!”
About: I have been taking care of all sorts of pets for over 30 years. I am very familiar with puppy, senior and all stages in between. Currently I have been given the responsibility of let outs for 2 adorable pups and mid day walks for another great pup when his family is on vacation. I am currently a stay at home mom . I am looking to fill my time with some pups who need cheering up while their family is away! I have a fenced in yard to keep dogs safe. Our family includes 3 dogs and 4 cats. The cats and dogs coexist well without any issues. 2 of our dogs are seniors who are very quiet. Our younger pup is 5 years old and loves everyone. He would be a great playmate for your pup. I am very hands on and will not take my eyes off your pup. They will be treated just like my fur babies!

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.
96% of sitters in New Salem 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 New Salem 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 New Salem.
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 New Salem. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 New Salem 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.
