“I dropped Buddy off the morning of 4/9 and picked him up on the 14th. Devin sent a text with pictures to show that Buddy had setteled in and playing with the other dogs. When we got home he slept the day away so I can only assume he had a good time. I would recommend Devin in a heart beat. Next time we need somebody Devin will definitely be the one I call”
“Brooke and her family were great! I had to find boarding on a moments notice and Brooke was so good to me and Ryder. Ryder had a great time staying with Brooke and her family! Thanks so much for watching my baby!”
“Chrissy was just what our dog needed. She has a fenced in yard and friendly playmates for my Bandit who has tons of energy. She kept the slider open to the yard so the dogs could run in and out and play. Bandit is an anxious dog and I could tell from the videos that he was immediately calm and enjoying himself. We will definitely book Chrissy again in the future!”
“Sheronda was great! Communicated often with us, sent us lots of great photos of our dog, and did a great job socializing him with the other dogs (making him comfortable). She has a great back yard (fenced in), with lots of great areas to walk dogs. Overall we are super pleased, will be booking with them again!”
“I boarded my precious dog Roxy with Jennifer and I cant say enough how wonderful the experience was for both Roxy and myself, i had total peace of mind while I was away,I knew Roxy was in good hands and Jennifer provided photos daily which was a further peace of mind, upon picking her up after a week stay,my dog simply wagged her tail at me not the usual with other sitters in past that dog wanted to leave immediately, I knew right then Roxy had a good time at Jennifers, thank you for the excellent care of Roxy!”
“Debbie watched Athena for a whole weekend & I couldn’t be more pleased. She followed her feeding & potty schedule & provided tons of pictures. Athena was very happy with her stay & enjoyed playing with the other dogs there. Overall, I was very happy with Athena’s stay with Debbie.”
“Our dog had a fabulous stay with Mahayla! Since it was our first time, Mahayla offered to come to our home to get to know our pup before caring for her the next day. They hit it off immediately and Mahayla explained her background in animal/dog behavior studies and reassured us that all would go well... and it did! Our pup had a blast trail hiking and also just relaxing at Mahayla's home. Mahayla clearly understands and loves dogs, and it was clear that she was focused on our dog's enjoyment, comfort level and care. She was also focused on our needs as the owners. Leading up to care day she was extremely responsive. On care day she sent photos and updates. A perfect stay...thanks, Mahayla!”
“Irene is the best! She is very responsive and caring with our slightly neurotic dog. 🐶 He always comes home happy and calm. Irene has a great setup for playtime (fenced yard, screened porch).”
“Jialin and John watched my new senior rescue Bianca for a long weekend and were so good to her! I was a little nervous since I had her less than a month and was still figuring out her unique behaviors and preferences but she was in great hands. We did a meet and greet beforehand and Boo-boo was a great host, sharing his home and parents. Jialin even taught Bianca a new trick that we have been working on back home. Bianca was sent home with a plastic baggie of some treats she liked to keep the good times going back home. I look forward to the next time Bianca can stay with them!”
“Laura was amazing with my dog Maple. She took her on so many walks and took such good care of her. She was also great at communicating with me and sent tons of pictures. I’ll definitely leave Maple with Laura again!”
“Yenifer took excellent care of my dog. He was so happy with her! She made sure she communicated everyday with us during the stay, sent us pictures and updates. We are very happy with her services and would strongly recommend her. Thank you, Yenifer.”
“This was our first time using Peggy on Rover. Our cocker spaniel, Sadie did awesome at her home. My Sadie really took to and loved spending time with her husband. Peggy was in contact with us daily with a picture and updates. We never worried while away we knew Sadie was in good hands. Our experience was everything we had hoped for. Thank you Peggy and we will definitely use you in the future and pass your name onto our friends.”
“It was my first time leaving Mookie with Marisa for a week and I’m glad I did. She did really take care of him and even sent me some pics to keep me updated, and he seems very comfortable. That really put me at ease during my trip. Thank you so much Marisa!”
“Alex was a fantastic dog sitter for our senior dog, Zuzu! He provided lots of pictures during her stay, and in every one, Zuzu looked so happy and comfy. She received several walks per day, and lots of pets. I would book Alex again in a heartbeat!”
“Karen was so kind, and really great with Gertie. I was so happy to see her quickly be affectionate with Karen which made me so happy! She sent me sweet photos and responded to my messages very quickly which was much appreciated. She took her into her home and everyone was happy. I am hoping to back up Karen’s way more in the future and will 100% use Karen again and also highly recommend her to other dog parents!!”

“Maggie is awesome! This was our first boarding experience for our little man and Maggie made everything so easy. She is extremely attentive, easy to work with, and absolutely loves dogs. She kept us updated throughout his stay and sent photos. Murdoch was the happiest boy when we picked him up. We already have her booked for another vacation and we know our boy will have the best care!”
“Even though this was short notice, Jillian was excellent with Ezra! She sent videos, photos, and updates about what was going on during the night and day. I felt at peace knowing my boy was in great hands. If you're looking for a responsible, loving, caring sitter, look no further.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 North Pownal home-away-from-home, 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 North Pownal.
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.
You and your North Pownal 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 , 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 .
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 VT 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.
