“I left my labradoodle, Ramona, with Valentina and her 4-year-old son for few hours, and honestly, she had the best time. From the start, Ramona felt completely at home — she got tons of love, playtime, and cuddles. Valentina was amazing and kept me updated with sweet pictures and little messages, which really put my mind at ease. Her son was the perfect little playmate, full of energy but so gentle and caring with Ramona. They played, ran around, and Ramona clearly loved all the extra attention. When I picked her up, she was happy, calm, and probably would’ve stayed even longer if she could! I highly recommend Valentina and her sweet son if you need someone loving and trustworthy to watch your dog. 5/5 paws from Ramona! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾”
About: Hi, I’m a dog Mom to Ruben and Teddy. I have a cozy home for dogs who love companionship, comfort, and plenty of attention. I offer a safe, peaceful space with room to relax, play, and enjoy daily walks. I have experience raising and crate-training Ruben from puppyhood and Teddu was adopted as a rescue. I understand the importance of routines, patience, consistent use of language and special treats to build trust with dogs. I work remotely, which allows me to provide supervision, personalized care, and a calm environment where dogs feel comfortable, and loved. It would be my joy to help be a part of your dog’s care team! My days usually include 2–3 walks: 10-15 min around my quite neighborhood block, playtime: fetch, belly rubs etc, potty breaks on a leash in the back yard and lots of opportunities for dogs to relax and chill independently or cuddle with me. When coming inside from walks, I wipe down their paws and faces with dog-safe wipes. I often play calming dog music and am happy to continue routines from home, including favorite treats, chews, or comfort items you send along. I keep routines as consistent as possible. I only care for a small number of dogs at a time (no more than four), which allows me to give each pup personalized care if needed. My home has plenty of space for dogs to relax and move around inside, and a semi-fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. For safety, I use leashes for all outdoor activities and always keep a close eye on the dogs in my care. I also have a crate and separate areas available if a dog needs quiet time, a break from the group, or their own comfortable space. I especially enjoy caring for small and medium-sized dogs who thrive in a relaxed home setting and would love having Ruben a and Teddy as a friendly companion during their stay.
“Maggie had the best time at daycare at Kiara’s. She and her family were so warm and welcoming, and it made me feel at ease dropping Maggie off with them. Thank you for loving my girl like your own.”
About: Through hands-on rescue work, I’ve cared for dogs with every temperament—puppies, seniors, anxious rescues, and large breeds—teaching me how to read body language, build trust, and provide calm, confident care. I’m highly experienced with puppies and basic training, including leash manners, crate training, and foundational commands like sit, stay, and recall, using positive reinforcement and consistency. I believe structure and patience help dogs feel safe and thrive. I live in a dog-friendly apartment community with a secure, fenced-in animal area where pups can safely run, play, and enjoy fresh air. We’re also surrounded by parks and beautiful walking paths, perfect for enrichment, exercise, and relaxed strolls. My love for animals is unmatched, and dogs are not just part of my life—they are my priority. I care for every dog as if they were my own, tailoring attention to their individual needs so they feel safe, happy, and truly at home. I value transparent, open communication and will always keep you updated for total peace of mind. I can’t wait to meet your beautiful fur baby! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, and playtime, so pets receive consistent attention, structure, and plenty of one-on-one care. My rescue experience has taught me the importance of structure, safety, and trust. I maintain a clean, secure environment, supervise pets closely, follow routines, and communicate clearly to ensure pets feel safe and cared for at all times.
“Jorge is friendly and Rosie warmed up to him right away. He took the dogs he was watching to the park! Easy communication and many photos. Will book with Jorge again.”
“Karen was excellent with my Oreo. It was his first time and he was very anxious she made him feel comfortable and took her time with him. Before we knew it was as if he knew her forever. She played with him and walked him. He made new friends and we will definitely be booking with Karen again.”
“Nikki was fantastic!! She took amazing care of Oscar over the past two days - she made sure he felt welcome in her home and he was having a great time with her dog Scout. Would book Nikki again, and recommend her to any dog parents in the area looking for doggy daycare / dog sitter.”
“Maria is a GODSEND! She absolutely loves and cares for your dog as much as you do. I’m a first time dog owner and I was so nervous leaving behind my pup while I went to work..but after meeting with Maria, and seeing how my pup loved going to her, I felt reassured. They play well together, go on long walks, he respects her and listens to commands..he is EXCELLENT hands. Maria’s is his second home❤️”
About: Hey my name is Diana, I absolutely love animals and would love to be given the opportunity to take care of yours! I will make your pet have an amazing and comfortable experience with me, working specifically with each pets needs. I’ve taken care of my pet rabbit for 8 years brushing, feeding and cleaning him. My pet dog for 3 years which I walk, feed and bathe mainly on my own. I’ve also cat sit for weeks at a time I currently don’t have a job, so I have plenty of time to take care of your furry friend including playing, feeding, walking and more! I use positive reinforcement to care for dogs, I will create a loving and trusting environment like I do with my own pets at home. I’m patient and determined to work with the pets till they trust me.
“My dogs always love going to Leon’s. They pulled me to his door and were so excited to see them. They had another wonderful stay. We will continue booking with Leon when we need a sitter.”
About: I have experience caring for three dogs. One was named Maia, an Australian Shepherd who belonged to my aunt. She was very energetic, and I spent a lot of time playing with her. I also cared for a German Shepherd named Rex. Although he was calmer, I played with him frequently as well. The third was Mango, a very small puppy with lots of energy. I fed all three dogs the appropriate amount of food based on their weight and at their scheduled feeding times. I also took them to the park regularly, although I took Mango less often because he was still a puppy. I am available to work on weekdays from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and I can also start as early as 8:00 AM when needed. During that time, I am happy to care for your pet by providing walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and ensuring they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for throughout the day. If the visits involve feeding, I would stay with the pets to play, keep them company, and give them a little extra affection before leaving the owner's home—naturally, always within the limits and guidelines provided to me. As for walks, I would make sure to bring everything necessary to ensure the pet feels comfortable and has a good, playful time.
About: I care for dogs with real love and intention. My energy is calm, grounded, and high-vibrational, and dogs feel that. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I pay attention to each dog’s personality. Some need to run and play, some just want to chill—and I’m good with both. I’m patient, present, and I don’t rush them or ignore what they need. I’m also active, so I can keep up with high-energy dogs, but I’m just as good at giving calm, steady companionship. Your dog won’t just be watched with me—they’ll be cared for like family. Pet care is a regular part of my weekly routine. I do this part-time, so I have the flexibility to really be present and give each dog proper attention. I’m reliable with my schedule and make sure the dogs I care for get my time, energy, and consistency. When I’m in a client’s home, I stick to the dog’s normal routine so they feel at ease. I follow any instructions given and make sure everything stays consistent for them. I’ll take them on walks, play with them, or just relax and give them attention—whatever they need in that moment. I also respect the home and keep things clean and calm.
“Our buddy Domino loves staying with Fernanda and her buddy Teddy. Fernanda is awesome with communication, sends pics and updates. She takes great care of our big guy and we highly recommend!”
About: Senior pets are my specialty. I’m a pet mom to a 16 year old diabetic senior kitty who is my world. He receives insulin twice a day so I have experience administering injections. This isn’t just a gig for me, I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m attentive, patient, and I truly take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. I keep pet parents at ease by providing updated as well as maintaining open and honest communication so you’ll never have to worry about what your pet is doing. I’m currently working part time from home and have plenty of time to dedicate. My schedule is very flexible and open to same day bookings. My cats follow the same daily routine. They eat soft food twice a day and receive medications twice a day. I have 2 friendly cats whom have grown up around dogs their whole lives. I have also fostered 2 cats for a year.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pelham
Lisa was absolutely lovely and my shy little dog was instantly comfortable with her. Lisa is very responsive given that I had a last-minute need for doggy daycare on an on a weekend day and she got back to me very quickly which I was grateful for. She has a kind, gentle demeanor, and from the videos she sent me, I got to see her adorable little poodle socializing with my pup. Maisie, my girl, clearly enjoyed it because het tail was wagging madly when they were together in the pictures and video. I’m so glad to have found Lisa and know that there’s someone really good in the New Rochelle Mamaroneck area
Melinda is amazing!! It was my first time booking with her as a new dog owner and she relieved a lot of my anxiety. She would provide me with updates and pictures of my puppy! Even provided me with feedback, which i really appreciated as a first time dog owner. She was super accommodating as well. Melinda is sweet, caring and I would definitely recommend her to others!
They were perfect! From drop-off to pick-up, I had zero issues. My one-year-old husky, who usually doesn’t like going to doggy sitters, LOVED them! She wanted to stay with them, lol! The prices were perfect, and I would definitely recommend them to ANYONE who needs a pet sitter! 10/10, will book again!
Maria is simply the best sitter and there is no comparison. We’ve used her to care for our boy for overnight trips and for daycare and he simply loves her. She is thoughtful, very communicative, shares updates and videos and most importantly she cares for your dog like she would her own. Highly recommend!!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Pelham commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
