“We had an extended vacation and had to leave our puppy behind. Alexis, was very communicative and reached out with photos in the AM and PM. Very responsive. Khloe loves her and always happy when she sees her. I highly recommend Alexis.”
“Jillian was great with our dog Rufus! He loved the freedom of the large fenced in backyard that he could freely roam and run around in with Jillian's two dogs! Rufus made new friends! We highly recommend Jillian and will definitely book with Jillan again soon!”
“Sara was wonderful. Our first time using a dog sitter and I was anxious about the experience. Would the boys behave, or would the sitter really give them attention? Well yes and definitely yes. The experience was great for us and the doggos. Our dogs are a large breed and a giant breed. Sara didn't have any qualms about their sizes and we were able to relax and enjoy a weekend away. Would absolutely use Sara's services again. Highly recommend.”
“Gabriela took such amazing care of our dog this weekend. She kept us up to date with plenty of pictures and updates the entire time she had Hope. Can’t wait till out next visit to her and her amazing family. Highly recommended sitter. Would absolutely rebook the next time we need someone to take care of Hope. Wonderful sitter and took simply the best care of our dog while we were away.”
“Cosmo had a wonderful time with Sriram and his family. We got regular updates including photos. They were very flexible to accommodate all our requests to keep him and us at ease. We will certainly send Cosmo back to them whenever we need boarding for him. Highly recommend them.”
“Kelly was super responsive and friendly and when we met her you could truly see that she is a dog lover. We felt so comfortable leaving Riley with her and her family. She sent us updates and photos throughout the weekend and she always appeared happy. Riley came home exhausted likely from playing with her doodle companions all weekend. Would highly recommend.”
“Melvin absolutely LOVES staying at Melissa’s house. He is given so much love and attention. I trust very few people with my pup but I can tell Melissa gets him and makes sure he feels comfortable. I am so relieved I can travel and not worry about him while I’m away.”
“Lieb and his family were friendly and a dog loving family. They kept me updated all day long with videos and pics. It felt as if I was not even away from my Daisy. Will definitely book with Lieb again.”
“We had a wonderful first experience with Turin! Tilly needs to be the only dog, so finding someone who could give her individual attention and make her feel comfortable was very important to us. Turin took the time to sit with us while Tilly explored her surroundings and adjusted at her own pace. She had such a calm, kind way with Tilly, and we felt very comfortable leaving her in her care. It was obvious that Tilly enjoyed spending time with Turin, and she came home happy after having a great time. It means so much to find someone you can trust with your dog, especially when they have individual needs. We are so happy we found Turin. We would absolutely recommend her!”
“My 6-month old German Shepherd Yarra stayed with Loida for 2 weeks. It was like a dream vacation. There was a spacious area in the house for Yarra settle in, a backyard to run around, and occasionally other dogs to play with. Loida has been sending me frequent updates and pictures so I was worry-free the whole time. Loida is very thoughtful and knowlegeable about dogs, she gave me very good advice as I am a first-time dog owner. She loves dogs and takes really good care of them. I can tell my dog had a good time as she did not want to leave Loida' place when it was time to get back home! I will definitely bring Yarra back to Loida next time I need to travel.”
“Rocky loves staying with Kathryn and her family. She is very attentive, keeps me updated and also sends me pictures. I always feel at ease leaving him with her because I know he’s being very well taken care of. I’ve been taking Rocky to her for a while now and will continue to do so, I definitely recommend her :)”
“David took great care of Tully and she came home happy and tuckered out from her weekend vacation. He was very responsive with communication and took her on short notice after my previously booked sitter canceled.”
“This was our first time using Jake & Mischa and they were awesome! They communicated with us and sent us pics of our pup. They also offered to drop him off and pick up which was a nice perk! Thank you guys for taking such good care of Bowser.”
“This was our first time using a non-family member to watch our pup and honestly it was the best! We were at ease the whole time we were away thanks to Lynn and Marty. They sent pictures and I could tell my dog was so happy. We would use them again in a heartbeat.”
“Marie is absolutely amazing. She took my dog in as her own. I had to go out of town last minute for two nights and she was awesome about the whole process. She kept me updated and sent pictures. I will definitely be using her again!”
About: My name is Justin and I've been dog/pet sitting for many many years! It started out by just helping a neighbor, but the word got out and I've been pet sitting ever since. I have watched a variety of pets including dogs, cats, lizards, birds, fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, and rabbits! I have always been an animal lover and I always will be. I think hanging out with dogs and getting paid for it is a dream come true. I am currently an accountant and looking to make some extra cash to pay off student loans. I would love to watch your furry family member and their safety will always be at the top of my list!
“Couldn't have been more happier with my first Rover experience! Ann had sent me photos of my dog while I was away. Will definitely use the service again in the future!”

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 Pine Island 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 Pine Island 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 Pine Island.
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 Pine Island. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 Pine Island 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.
