“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! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾”
“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: I had the privilege of growing up with dogs (and guinea pigs) all my life! I would love to care for your furry best friend and provide you with peace of mind while you’re away. I will do my best to ensure your pet is comfortable and feels right at home! I work from home, so I have flexibility to care for your pet throughout the day and take them out for frequent walks, to play outside or go to the park for a walk. We have a fenced backyard for potty breaks and playtime. Milo and I are home most of the day, so your pet will not feel lonely!
“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.”
“Yanet took really good care of Coco Puff, and sent us regular updates and photos. Loved seeing our boy enjoying playing around in their yard. Yanet made the whole process of dropping Coco off and picking him up very easy too. Will definitely book her services in the future if the need arises.”
“I had such a wonderful experience with Corey and Stephanie! They took amazing care of my dog and truly treated her like she was one of their own. They kept me updated multiple times throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was safe, happy, and being well cared for. I especially appreciated how attentive they were to her comfort around the other dogs at daycare. They made sure she felt safe and even took the time to walk her separately so she could have some one-on-one attention. That really showed me how much they genuinely care about each dog and their individual needs. Corey and Stephanie are incredibly kind, friendly, and clearly have a genuine love for dogs. I felt completely comfortable leaving my girl in their care, and I will absolutely be booking with them again. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for people who will care for your dog as if they were their own! 🐾❤️”
“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!”
“Nikki could not have been nicer and Zuko had a great stay in her home for the day. She took him on a long walk and he came back fabulously tired. Communication was excellent and it was obvious how much Nikki and her husband love dogs.”
“As soon as we pulled up to Brayhana's and my dog recognized the place, he started shaking. He couldn't contain his excitement. When Brayhana came out to get him, he immediately bolted up the stairs to her home! He didn't even stop or look back to say goodbye. He loves her!”
“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.”

“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.”

Of course! Based on her note, I’d keep it warm but simple: We had such a great experience with Valentina! She took great care of Teddy and kept us updated throughout the day. It was so nice knowing he was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. We really appreciate how attentive and sweet she was with him. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!
Omar was amazing with Benji! I could tell that Benji felt very comfortable and relaxed by looking at the pictures. I was a little worried at first cause my dog could be very moody at times but I can tell Omar treated him with love and made him feel right at home. Omar stayed in touch and gave me updates which I really appreciate!! He will definitely be watching over Benji again!!
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!

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 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 .
