“We left our two older dogs with Joseph, worrying that a regular kennel may not be a good idea (they’re about 14). Even with occasional anxiety, both dogs appeared to acclimate well. Joseph sent daily updates with photos, which was great since we always worry about how they handle being away. Joseph was flexible about pickup and drop off, and was always great with communication. We absolutely feel comfortable leaving our two old boys with him again in the future.”
“I needed last-minute dogsitting so that I could race in the Head of the Charles, and Emily was wonderful — she sent a few adorable photos (but not so many that it was overwhelming), and the dogs were clearly happy when I picked them up!”
“Susan & John are wonderful and took great care of our older schipperke Grimm when we have to out of town for a week. They sent video and picture updates that was a great comfort to us. We can't wait to book with them again n thank you Susan and John for your warm hospitality!”
“Jessica was fantastic, watching with our 8yo pup while we were at a celebration in Vermont for the weekend! She was even able to take him out for a long walk/hike and sent pics—he had a great time. We will definitely seek her out next time we are in the area and need overnight care.”
About: I've taken care of food, play, walks, and medicines for dogs. I love spending time with them and giving them the attention they deserve. I've also spent time at shelters to be with the dogs. I've helped with dogs of all breeds and I'm excited to get to know the personality of your dog! I've done day-boarding via Rover and dog walks + house sitting for dogs in general. I have work Mon-Fri till 4:30pm and would be available 5pm onwards for your dog on weekdays. However I do have some flexibility during the week so feel free to check as per your requirement. I live in decent sized studio apartment alone. I have enough room to play, feed, and keep the dog company. The apartment building is pet-friendly, safe, and has a dog park along with walking paths around it so there is enough area for me to take the dog for a nice walk. There is also a shorter path where I can take the dog for relieving themselves immediately right outside the apartment. The building also has a nice outdoor and indoor chilling space within it where I can take the dog for some engagement.
“I felt very comfortable, safe, and secure with my dog Tubbs in Abbie’s care. She has great communication, is kind and caring, and Tubbs was in the best mood when I picked him up (I’m not certain he wanted to leave!). Highly recommend, will definitely rebook!”
About: I've loved caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. I love that every dog has its own unique personality. I would love to meet yours! Very flexible at the moment. I can maintain a consistent week-to-week schedule with your pup. I am also free for one-time drop-ins! Happy to help wherever is needed. I can walk, feed, play with, or take your dog on adventures. I am also happy to socialize your dog if they are friendly! Any service you may need for your pup!
About: I have owned dogs my whole life and am a PhD student looking to use my exercise/break time taking care of your dog! Mondays to Wednesday I have open availability and Thursday to Sundays I am open from about 10AM to 2PM. I am super flexible and happy to follow your doggie rules. I have done formal training for rescue pups and understand dog behaviour/warning signs/signs of stress etc as well as any human can. I like to take my own dog with me most places, hiking, camping, you name it. I have owned dogs from 30lb to 90lb and ones who are super loving and those who are more shy. I am used to dealing with a more shy dog on a regular basis. Hope to hear from you!
“Christine was absolutely wonderful with Bean! Bean is a very shy and anxious pup and I've never left her with a stranger before. Christine made sure to have a few meet and greets to ease Bean's anxiety and get to know her prior to my weekend away. She has wonderful calming energy and was very patient and caring with Bean. I was completely comfortable leaving Bean in Christine and Lilly's hands. While away, I got regular photos and updates. Overall it was a great experience with Christine and I would highly recommend her!”

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 Perkinsville 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 Perkinsville.
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 Perkinsville 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.
