“Jessica and her family watched our pup Clementine for a long weekend. She was a little nervous since it was her first time away with new friends but Jess made her feel so welcome and she got comfortable right away! We touched base daily and she was great at communicating. She was also flexible and easy going which helped make everything easier! Would be happy to recommend to anyone and would gladly have them watch our furbabe again! ??”
“Bev and her husband Bob are such good people. they’ve become our dogs second home when we’re away. we’re retired now and just wouldn’t be able to go and leave Lilly so having them to take care of her allows us to not worry and enjoy time away. they’re the best😘🐶”
“Michael was great! Our one dog has anxiety issues and is VERY wary of men. He made up to Michael in just a few minutes! Both dogs were relaxed and made themselves at home quickly. If we are ever in the area again, we will definitely bring them back to Michael's. Stress free for us AND our pups and none of the guilt of a kennel!”
“our Boxer Rudy had just had a procedure and needed special care and is still being house trained. Mindy was awesome. She sent us pics, video and updates of him as well as gave him his medication. She gave us tips for socializing him and was very patient with him. I can tell he had an amazing time and will definitely let Rudy board with her again.”
“Naomi and Sam are wonderful! My 90lbs dog spent the Christmas holidays with them. I couldn’t have hoped for a better family for him. They took him in and treated him as part of their family. My dog hang out with their Labrador and their kids. And, from that picture Naomi sent, we can tell that they formed a special bond. My dog even got gifts from Santa ☺️. We thank Naomi and Sam for everything they did for our 🐶.”
“Nichole took such good care of our dog, Juniper! She was so well cared for and enjoyed playing with Nichole's dog. Nichole sent lots of pictures and updates and even went as far as to clean her ears when she saw they were irritated. We could not recommend her more!”
“Carrie was beyond amazing! We rd can't describe how grateful I felt about Richard's experience with Carrie! First off, running into an emergency needing last minute accommodations had me in panic mode, she was able to take him the very next day. All my hesitation I had leaving my baby with someone I didn't know went away immediately after dropping Richard off. He was spoiled, loved, got a bath for getting a little to dirty playing, got snuggles and she even asked me for permission to take him to petco as they had ice cream day for dogs. Received photos, videos and Richard has 2 new buddies for life with Chester and Charlie! You won't be disappointed with Carrie, I won't vouch for many, but you and your baby will feel safe with Carrie while you are away! Thanks Carrie! I appreciate you so much!”
“This was my first time ever boarding Winnie and Monica put me so at ease with leaving him in her care. She even spent extra time to make sure my dog was comfortable with hers before I booked an overnight and she kept me informed on how he was doing with texts, photos and video. I would not hesitate to book a stay with her again!”
“Siobhan was awesome with Beanz! She had a great yard and nice dog. Beanz cried a bit at night and she went the extra mile to get up and stay on the couch with him. You can tell she is a dog lover, Beanz seemed to have an awesome time. Thanks Siobhan!”
“This is my first time using Rover and Erica took care of my 7monthold puppy so well and giving me pics and videos everyday! She is super experienced in dog care and I definitely recommend her!”
“Couldn't be happier with the care Connor gave to Atlas. He also sent amazing updates and so many great pictures. It was clear that Atlas was super well cared for and we're so grateful.”
“Our dog Astro has stayed with Courtney twice now. I could tell from the start that he was very comfortable in Courtney's home. She knows so much about dogs and animals, its very reassuring. She is super accommodating for drop-offs and pickups. The first time we picked-up Astro, he didn't want to leave! After this past stay he was very tired and sleepy. We could tell he had a great time playing! We will 100% use Courtney again!”
“Richard and his family were absolutely lovely. Lucky was so happy when we picked him up, which made us feel reassured that he had a wonderful time. Thank you so much for accommodating our last-minute request. We truly appreciate it and would happily recommend Richard and his family to others!”
About: As a fellow pet parent, I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone new. That’s why I treat every pet like part of my own little furry family—warm cuddles, silly moments, and all. Your pet’s happiness and comfort mean everything to me. I’m available for boarding pet care on the weekends mainly. Also, open to be flexible and accommodate special requests. Please message me with your questions. I have a smaller fenced yard for quick potty breaks throughout the day and take my own two doggies for regular walks in the neighborhood as well. A minimum of 2x per day, rain or snow.
“Camila and Santiago were so amazing with our little dog. She gets very anxious and depressed the first couple of days we are gone and they both were very patient with her and provided so much love to her! We were gone for 10 days and were updated every other day with photos and stories of how she was doing. It was so appreciated! I would highly recommend them for caring for your pet 💕”
“Sarah took great care of our baby fur Moka. She sent photos and update us regularly. It made our trip so much better knowing that Moka was being well taken care of. Thank you Sarah for your love and care of our Moka!”

“Melissa and Gregory were incredible! This was our first time using Rover and they put us immediately at ease. They welcomed our rambunctious puppy into their home with open arms, making us feel confident that he would be well taken care of. He had some tummy troubles going on when we had to leave and they were so understanding, telling us not to worry. He made a mess in his crate one night because of this and they were so understanding, not bothered at all. They cooked up his brat diet (ground beef and rice) for several days until his stomach was working better. Leo came back to us healthy and happy. I highly recommend Melissa and Greg - they are just super!”

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.
95% of sitters in Olcott 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 Olcott 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 Olcott.
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 Olcott. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Olcott 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.
