“My furbaby was comfortable with Keirstin. He spent a day with her before his 3 nights of boarding. He was quite excited to see her again to start his boarding for which I was pleased to see. While we were away, Keirstin sent us photos and updates and she was very responsive when I asked questions about his settling in her home. Thank you Keirstin.”

I would leave my dog in her care again and would definitely recommend her to other pet parents. 😊 Thanks, Jiaxu!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our pup Gomi this week! Vera was very caring and attentive to Gomi’s needs. Communication was fantastic — frequent photos and videos gave us comfort knowing he was in great hands, and she kept us updated on everything from his eating to his bathroom habits. Gomi came home happy and relaxed, and we’d happily consider booking with her again. Highly recommend!”

Sarah was an excellent person to work with for my 6 day trip. From my first message asking about availability to drop off messaging, she had been a great communicator, fast and on time for pick up and drop off. I can tell by the pictures that my dog had the best time and felt very comfortable and from the moment she walked in and greeted a stranger with a happiness when can sometimes be discerning of new people 10/10 book her ! You won’t regret it
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Suhani! She made a world of difference for my pup, Chuy, while we were traveling and he was getting used to life in a new city. She immediately offered to jump on a call with me on my tight timeline to help talk through Chuy’s needs and how she could help. She took the best care of him, and made sure he felt comfortable in every way possible. She very clearly had a passion and love for all animals, and I’m grateful Chuy had a chance to meet her!
Christina is the best! She loves our dog Kody like he's her own and he adores her. It is so obvious when we get back that he is happy, calm and feeling completely comfortable, like he's home when he's with her. She is so attentive, engaged and loving with him, a real pro as a care giver and just a wonderful person. This is his third stay with her and I can't imagine using anyone else.
Maria was an excellent and attentive dog sitter! Her warm personality immediately put us at ease, and our two little dogs had a blast and warmed up to her and her place in record time. She sent us lots of updates and photos, which we really appreciated. She even picked up our dogs on a rainy day, which made everything so much easier for us. And somehow, she managed to make our crazy little Zuzu feel completely seen and understood (which is no small accomplishment! 😂). We felt very comfortable knowing our babies were in such good hands and would definitely recommend Maria!
Lynn was great. We met before Koa’s sleep over they could get acquainted. The pictures, videos and updates were just the right amount and made my business trip so much easier because I know Koa was in good hands/company. He looked like he had fun, was stimulated and got time to play. I will be booking with Lynn again.
Nicole is such an attentive sitter with my senior dog. It was the first time he had boarded with her for consecutive days, and she kept me updated along the way with thoughtful messages. I came back to a dog that was clearly well-loved. He was calm, not a lick of anxiety, happy and wagging his tail every time he looked at her. They've become best friends! I appreciate how much she cares about my little old man and his needs. The peace of mind is everything as you know with our babies!!
Erin is a magnificent dog sitter, she was very accommodating as I had to make arrangements on short notice for my Miniature Schnauzer Scout. I had total peace of mind while away knowing Scout was getting long walks through the park and lots of cuddles from Erin. Erin does a great job sending updates throughout the stay and is always prompt in responses, and was gracious in her willingness to work around some of Scout’s odd habits. Scout looks forward to her next visit with Erin and I’m thrilled to have found a reliable sitter in the neighborhood!
Rachel was amazing! She was very responsive and sent me lots of pictures and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands. He was so happy with Rachel and I knew he had an amazing time. I would definitely recommend Rachel and would happily book with her again!

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.
