“Donna was available at the last minute to care for my pups, a mini-Bernedoodle and my 11 week old Italian greyhound. I was scared to leave the puppy with a stranger, but Donna went out of her way to communicate and reassure me that both pups would be safely cared for. I'm very appreciative that I was able to leave them in her capable care. Thank you, Donna”

“I was traveling to Long Island from out of state last minute, and the people we were visiting did not allow dogs in their house. I admit, I was extremely nervous to leave Mambo with someone I didn’t know. At the end of Mambo’s stay, I was extremely jealous that my dog was not paying attention to me and just wanted to be with Eliana, haha. His reaction speaks to how well he was treated and all the attention he was given. Eliana and her husband were extremely flexible with our schedule (we drove 6 hrs from Virginia and arrived super late), constantly shared pictures of mambo and were ok with us picking him up for a few hrs in the middle of the day and then dropping him off. They have a HUGE and FENCED backyard, in which Mambo loves to run. You can tell Eliana loves dogs and that she cares about them. I’m already referring her to friends in the area, and will definitely reach out to her the next time Mambo and I visit Long Island.”

“We went to meet Jodie, and her dog, Charlie, a few days before our trip. Bowie instantly felt at home and was entirely happy playing with Charlie. While we were away, Jodie sent daily pictures of our happy puppy and kept us informed of his antics! He had so much fun and can't wait to go back when we go on vacation again! Thank you Jodie!”

“We had a wonderful experience boarding Chloe with John and his wife. They are lovely people, their home is immaculate, and it is obvious they love dogs and enjoy caring for them. Their own dog is very well behaved and got along well with ours. We highly recommend John and would certainly board Chloe with him again in the future.”

Our puppy also got along great with her dog. Overall very happy with the care she provided. We will definitely book her again.”

“Dan and Denise are absolutely amazing. I'm on the east coast for 6 weeks and during that time have several business trips lined up. Dan picked me up at the airport and brought me to his place for a meet and greet and then dropped me off at my destination. The dogs got along very well, their house is impeccable and the yard is enormous! Dan and Denise said they'd be able to take the pup for all of my trips which makes everything easier on the fur baby and makes me more relaxed. She *loved* her weekend with them and is already set up for some more time later this week! It's wonderful to know that my pup has wonderful people looking out for her while I'm gone. Dan thinks about absolutely every detail and makes my life easier. He even knows my favorite drink and makes sure to have one for me when he picks me and the pup up for our trips. Not sure how I'd manage all my work travel without him.”

“I am so grateful I found Alev! She took amazing care of my Havanese Chloe while I was away for a weekend wedding. Alev sent me photos, videos and many updates on her walks and her feeding schedule that confirmed my little girl was getting lots of love and attention. Alev completely put my mind at ease which allowed me to enjoy my time away. I could not recommend her services enough and look forward to booking time with her again!”

“This was my first time using Rover as well as my first time having anyone watch my Dog. Needless to say, I was very nervous about the whole thing. I had brought Olga to a kennel (which was very clean/good/clear dogs were well taken care of as much as possible) but I just couldn’t bring myself to not have Olga be in a place where she could interact with people/have a yard to run around. Not only did Lenny do a great job watching my little Olga, she also kept me updated with detailed texts and photos throughout Olga’s stay. This eased my mind greatly and also showed me that Lenny truly cared about Olga’s wellbeing. Lenny also gave me a good overview of Olga’s visit when I picked her up. She made me feel good about Olga and together we discussed future visits and ways to optimize further Olga’s future visits/development in general. It is clear that Lenny cares about Olga’s wellbeing going forward. I will definitely work with Lenny again and I highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much Lenny. I have such piece of mind now knowing I have such a good option for Olga to stay when I am out of town. I am very excited for Olga’s next visit. Thank you again very much for being so kind and opening up your home/heart to Olga.”

Joanne was caring, conscientious and professional. This was our first booking with her, and she thoughtfully sent many photos with updates on how our boy was adapting to this new environment. He had previously been boarded only with his breeder. He was fine, happy and well taken care of. We would gladly book with her again.

Gerald was absolutely wonderful with our rescue dog, Harley, who can often be nervous and anxious with a sitter but seemed to feel right at home with him. Gerald was kind, patient, and attentive to Harley’s needs and was excellent about communicating with us throughout her stay. We would most certainly use him again and highly recommend him!

I couldn’t be happier with the incredible care my dog received! From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in the hands of someone who truly loves animals. She’s adamant about maintaining your pets’ normal schedule. To say she is accommodating would be an understatement. The daily updates, photos, and genuine attention made all the difference. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly adored. This was above and beyond anything I expected. If you’re looking for someone who treats your dog like family, look no further.

Freedom was a huge help when we had to book at the last minute due to a family emergency. They were very nice to Cleo and accommodated her food needs and energy level. They also made a very cute portrait of Cleo and gifted her a bandana, which she is still wearing and loving. I highly recommend Freedom to others looking for a sitter.

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.

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.
