“Cindy is always reliable, and we really appreciate her picture/video updates! She takes great care of our Chester, and he loves going to her house. She makes him feel comfortable, and we appreciate the care she provides to our beloved fur baby.”
“Michelle was so lovely, she looked after my two pups for the day and it looked like they had the best time. She sent lots of pictures too! Would absolutely trust her with my dogs in the future.”
“Sarah and her lovely family took care of our little Yorkie for five days while my husband and I were visiting in New York City. We were staying out on Long Island, and had event tickets each day in the city, so we needed flexible doggie day care hours to accommodate our needs. We felt so very blessed to find Sarah! She welcomed Violet into her home and treated her like family. She is very well equipped to care for any pets and has plenty of equipment and facilities thoughtfully laid out in her home and yard. She has thought of everything her guests could possible need! She kept us very well informed throughout the visit so I didn’t have to worry and wonder about our baby one bit. She obviously loves animals and treated our sweet girl like her very own. Violet was so happy to get there each day and loved playing with all the people and pets in Sarah’s household. I have only ever used day care services on Rover and really couldn’t imagine boarding our fur baby with someone other than a family member, but I wouldn’t hesitate to leave her at Sarah’s! I know I would get professional care, steady communication, and the most loving environment! I cannot recommend her more highly!”

We also have double gates for extra safety in the yard.

About: Hello! I am a young active working professional. I work from home during the week and am home weekends. I love my Siberian Husky, Pi, and my shorthair Border Collie, Jinx. We like to play catch and go to the dog parks together. Both of my dogs are up to date on vaccines. They love medium to big dogs and not as good with small dogs. Pi loves to cuddle and Jinx can play all day! They are really friendly and sweet. We have pillows and couches laying around and a fenced yard with lots of fetching balls that they can play in. Our house is spacious and we have people home around most of the day. We would love to host other dogs for companionship. I'm working full time from home and control my own working schedule so I will have plenty of time to play with your dog! My two dogs and I typically go outside and play three times during the day. I have a big fenced yard for my dogs (and yours!) with a garden where they can roam around. I also have a little doggie pool in the summer. Our two dogs really like to play outside! We have a small kid who loves dogs and so are looking to host dogs that are friendly with kids.
About: Hi, I’m Mindy — I run MindySits 🐾 I treat every pet like my own, simple as that. I’m patient, reliable, and pay attention to what each dog actually needs. Beyond pet sitting, I’m deeply involved in the rescue community and serve as a Foster Manager with BARRK Rescue, where I help oversee placements, guide fosters, and support dogs coming from difficult or uncertain backgrounds. This experience has given me a strong understanding of behavior, decompression, and how to meet each dog exactly where they are. Whether it’s walks or overnight care, I keep things calm, consistent, and make sure your pet is comfortable and well cared for. I’ll also keep you updated so you’re never wondering how things are going. Dependable care and a happy dog that’s always the goal 💛🐶 Hi! I work a hybrid schedule, home 2 days a week. My husband is home so your pup will rarely be alone. I have always been happiest with a dog close by. I live with my husband, daughter, and our dog Willie 🐾 We’re a calm, dog-loving home and I just really enjoy having animals around.

“Alba is wonderful! She takes such good care of peaches :) We trust her with both day boarding & overnight stays. She always sends pictures & videos & we are always at peace knowing our baby is in good hands.”
“Jennifer was awesome with my dog Toffee! Toffee has anxiety and Jennifer took great care of her! She listened to all of her needs and updated me throughout the day with pics and I picked up Toffee happy and tired out! I 100% recommend Jennifer!!”
“I fear words pale in describing how fantastic Kayla and her family are! Todd simply did not want to leave, and she is wonderfully communicative, thoughtful, and patient. In short, she and her family are magnificent!”
“Wenxu took excellent care of my puppy, Fluffy! We found her on very short notice, and she responded within minutes, which was incredibly helpful. From the start, she was friendly, reliable, and communicative. She made sure Fluffy was happy, safe, and well cared for, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. I highly recommend Wenxu to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of Fluffy!”
“Alissa was a pleasure to work with. She is very sweet, friendly and kind. She readily meet my dog Mollie and me for a Meet and Greet before the actual stay.

About: Hi there! Dogs have been a part of my entire life & I understand that they are so much more than pets - they are our family! What sets me apart is the personal attention I give to each dog in my care. I want them to feel comfortable, secure & genuinely loved while they are away from their family. Throughout my life of having dogs, I've experienced & learned about their many different needs. I've cared for an epileptic dog, administered prescription eye drops & been there for my dogs through illnesses, surgeries, recovery & all the different stages of their lives. These experiences have taught me to be observant, patient & attentive to changes in their behavior & well-being. I do my best to learn & understand what may be happening with them and, as much as possible, what they might be feeling so I can give them the care, comfort & attention they need. My own dogs have taught me how much trust is involved when someone cares for your beloved pet. My late little girl, Faith, holds a HUGE piece of my HEART & her memory is a part of what inspires me to care for & give other people's dogs the same compassion I would want for my girl. My goal is for your dog to feel like they're spending the day in a second home, surrounded by love, attention & care. At this point in my life, I'm fortunate to have the flexibility be home for most of the day, which allows me to dedicate my time & attention to caring for dogs - something I truly love! I'm available for both doggy daycare & overnight boarding throughout the week. I do occasionally step out for errands & such, but your dog will have plenty of attention & care throughout the day. For daycare, I offer convenient morning drop-off & afternoon/evening pick-up times. Boarding drop-offs & pick-ups can be arranged during the day to best accommodate your schedule. I'm happy to discuss specific timing when making a reservation, with times generally arranged between 8 AM & 7 PM. Of course, I offer some flexibility when needed. I also offer a convenient pick-up/drop-off service for an additional fee. If possible, before every first booking, I’d love to schedule a meet-and-greet to make sure I’m the perfect fit for you and your pup. Your pet's overall happiness is my top priority. I take the time to learn each dog's personality, routine, likes & needs so I can make sure their stay is as happy & stress-free as possible! Whether your pet is here for the day or a longer stay, we will fully take advantage of my large, fully fenced-in yard. I have plenty of space for dogs to run, play & enjoy some fresh air safely. I'm happy to step out with them & enjoy some of the same! I have no pets of my own, no more small children & my home is smoke-free, providing a calm & peaceful environment. I'm happy to follow your pet's normal routine & can crate them if that's what they are comfortable with or whatever it is you prefer. I will provide you with updated photos and messages throughout their day(s) - I remember how excited I was to receive mine! I offer a safe, loving, comfortable home where your dog will receive plenty of attention, affection, companionship and care throughout their stay.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Plainedge
Sarah is an exceptional caregiver for our pup Leela! She was so thorough when we dropped Leela off and made sure every single area that Leela would be in was shown to us. There is tremendous care and intention that Sarah puts into her services and it shows. Leela was at ease being with her, and we will be dropping Leela off to hang out with Sarah, her children, and her pup every time we are in Long Island. Her daughter also drew leela two beautiful drawings and one can tell your pup will be treated like family. She is also very attentive and well versed in caring for a puppy’s needs.
It usually takes our chihuahua, Louie, a while to warm up to new people. However, he warmed up to Patricia right away! He was so comfortable in her home that he sat on her lap during the first doggie day care session. Patricia is very attentive, extremely knowledgeable, and treated Louie like her own pet. We are very fortunate to have found Patricia!

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 Plainedge 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 .
