“Denis and Margo have been fantastic cat sitters. Our cat Oscar is clearly very happy staying with them. They're great communicators and give us lots of updates on our little guy when we're away”
“Juliana was really wonderful, and treated our dog like a member of the family! She was very professional and always quick to reply and gave us updates during our dog's stay.”
“Kristin was so wonderful with my cat Maia! Kristin accepted my request quickly, was really friendly and sent me video and photo updates of Maia throughout the week. Maia looked really happy too! So grateful to Kristin and will be requesting her again in the future to watch Maia. Thank you Kristin!”
“Anna was absolutely amazing! She watched our Goldendoodle, Zoie, for a full week and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly reliable, communicative, and caring, and it was clear from the start that Zoie was in great hands. We had complete peace of mind while we were away, and came home to a very happy and well cared for dog. Zoie absolutely loved her, and we’ll definitely be using Anna again.”
“The experience with Ruth U was dynamic for our fur baby Buddy. I truly appreciated getting videos of his ventures in a warm and loving environment. We will utilize their wonderful services in the future. We gave our tip in person yesterday at drop-off.”
“Gaby and her husband have been so nice with my dog Rocco. They have been keeping me posted all the time with pictures and messages, took good care of Rocco and even gave him a perfect grooming. I will be for sure a constant client. Thankful!❤️”
“Iwona took wonderful care of our dog while we were away and gave us real peace of mind. She kept us updated throughout the weekend and sent photos, which we always appreciate. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog sitter!”
“Amy was such an amazing caretaker for Apollo! We needed someone to watch him during a long trip, and since he had never stayed with her before, she generously offered not one, but two meet-and-greets. The first was to meet us and Apollo, and the second allowed him to get comfortable in her home before his stay. From the very beginning, Amy was incredibly sweet, kind, and welcoming. Her family was just as excited to have Apollo and made him feel right at home. She took the time to listen to all of our instructions and learn about Apollo’s preferences, and she truly embraced having him as part of her family while we were away. Throughout his stay, she kept me updated with pictures and messages about how he was eating, sleeping, adjusting, and whether he seemed anxious. Her communication was excellent, and she was always so accommodating and thoughtful. Apollo was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for, which gave me so much peace of mind while traveling. I trusted Amy completely and would absolutely have Apollo stay with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, reliable, and communicative sitter!”
“Amazing. Reliable. Genuine. Just a few words that describe Catalina. Rosco adores her and her family. Rosco is going on his 3rd visit to Catalina's home and he absolutely loves being there. The photos she sends to me don't do any justice on the fun he has with her. I highly recommend her!!”
“Christina is truly the sweetest dog sitter we have had. She was so caring and kind to my senior pug who has plenty of health issues. She sent plenty of adorable photos. Her husky is just as kind and gentle. Can't wait to book with her again!”
“Hands down, one of the best dog sitters you could ever ask for! If you’re looking for someone you can genuinely trust with your furry family member, he’s absolutely the right person. He took such wonderful care of Zia, was incredibly attentive, present, and caring throughout her stay, and his communication was exceptional. He truly goes above and beyond to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Zia was in such good hands. You don’t come across people like him very often. I couldn’t recommend him more highly! 🐾”
“Laura and Luzia are super awesome! They took care of our puppy Luca for the second time and it was a wonderful experience. We loved all the photos and videos we received of Luca. We could tell he was very well cared for and loved. I highly recommend them.”
“Bruno and Victoria took excellent care of our dog. They are reliable and is clear that they have a genuine passion for animals. We received daily updates from photos and videos, and it made us happy knowing our dog was having a good time while we were outside the country. Overall very communicative and went above and beyond to make sure to meet all of our dog's needs were met. They’re truly probably the best dog sitters we’ve encountered yet, and hoping to use their services again in the future!”
“Eleanor treated my recently adopted rescue pup with all the attention and support she needs to continue adjusting to NYC life. She was incredibly communicative, immediately understood my dog’s temperament and asked for detailed information about my dog’s daily routine to ensure a comfortable stay. Very grateful for having connected with such a dog sitting pro!”
“Bridget was great. Took excellent care of Bella. We were very nervous and worried, but things worked out great. Process was smooth and no complaints.”
“Our dog Augie had a great stay! We received lots of pictures and updates throughout his stay, and it looked like he had so much fun. He would definitely love to stay again.”
“Emerald was sooo great with Autumn. She sent so many pictures and updates without me even having to ask. I knew Autumn was in good hands with her and Minty. 10/10 reccomend!”
About: I've grown up with dogs and cats, I absolutely love them. I've walked dogs professionally since a young age. I also exclusively walked 3 beautiful dogs for 5 days a week for about 2 years. I will watch big dogs if they are very well behaved and or trained. Starting in November my schedule is wide open, I'm happy and willing to help with all of your dog and cat needs! If your pet doesn't match my willing to take, reach out anyway and I may make it work. I'm very comfortable with doing whatever your dog or cat needs. I've had lots of different dogs and cats that have all needed different types of care.
“Renald is so polite, caring, and attentive. Renald really enjoys boarding dogs it’s in his genes. My dog looked in great shape when I picked him up, and he even said good-bye to Renald with a wagging tail..it was so sweet! I will definitely be booking Renald services for boarding in the future.”

Adriana is wonderful and took great care of Winston for 4 days while I was away with my family. She made me and Winston feel immediately comfortable with her door wide open and dealt exceptionally well with his first-visit anxiety. I got to see lots of pictures and updates of Winston enjoying his day and had no worries while I was away. Thank you for taking the best care of Winston! Adriana promptly answered all of my questions and assuaged all of my concerns. On the day I dropped off Winston, he immediately immersed himself in her warm home. I couldn't have been happier with how everything went and would gladly trust Adriana to watch my fur baby again in the very near future. Thank you! Adriana made sure everything went as smoothly as possible. What a great experience!! I had a 4-day visit with family and wanted personal care for my Winnie. Adriana was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and clearly loves dogs/animals. Her warmth when meeting Winnie for the first time immediately put me at ease as a brand new resident of Queens, NY, and I knew I made the right decision. I was impressed by Adriana's professionalism throughout the entire process. She requested detailed information about Winnie, and it was evident that she took the time to really understand Winnie's individual requirements, which made me feel confident in her ability to provide proper care. Most importantly, the quality of care provided by Adriana was outstanding. Winnie seemed genuinely happy and well-cared-for when I returned. It was evident that Adriana had spent quality time with him, engaging in playtime and providing the attention and affection that Winnie needed. I wholeheartedly recommend Adriana's dog boarding service. Her passion for animals, consistent communication, reliability, professionalism, and high-quality care make her an exceptional choice for anyone seeking a trustworthy and dedicated dog sitter. Without reservation, I will not hesitate to hire Adriana again in the future, knowing that my beloved Winston/Winnie will be in the best hands possible!
I had a wonderful experience with Shania as always! She took care of my dog for almost two weeks, and I couldn’t have been happier with the care she provided. My dog absolutely loves her, and she consistently kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. I would highly recommend her and would happily book with her again!
Leaving your dog with anyone is super nerve-racking and can give you a lot of anxiety, but when I tell you that all of my anxiety and nervousness went away instantly when me and my dog Tyson met Michelle and Michael. Tyson immediately fell in love with them you can tell he was so happy to meet them, it’s almost as if he already knew them. It’s something about their energy and presence. It’ll be a blessing for your dog to stay with them. Tyson is a 75 pound mostly pitbull/Labrador, so of course with our size dogs we’re always a little more nervous and worried if dog sitters are going to take care of your dog the way you want them to and I can say that Michael and Michelle went above and beyond, they sent me pictures and updated me how he was doing daily. And when I picked up Tyson, he was at peace, He didn’t have any anxiety. He was really calm and happy. You can tell that he had a great stay and was well taken care of. I will highly recommend Michelle and Michael. Also their home is super clean ! Thank you again for the awesome service and for showing all the love to my boy while I was away. Tyson will be back.
Kristi took such wonderful care of my dogs while I was away on my trip! When I returned, both of my dogs were happy, clean, well-fed, and clearly very well cared for. She went above and beyond by taking them on daily walks, bringing them to the park, and even taking my Chihuahua on a little adventure to Brooklyn! She also kept me updated with photos throughout my trip, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that my dogs were comfortable, happy, and genuinely loved while in her care. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! You can absolutely trust Kristi with your fur babies. I’m so grateful for the love and attention she gave my dogs and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!
We boarded our two pups with Lynn for our wedding weekend and she was fantastic! Drop off and pick up were seamless, and Lynn provided regular updates although we were a bit slow to respond at times. Would definitely recommend Lynn to anyone and would book her again in the future!
Jessica was INCREDIBLE with our senior dog Frida! We had more than a few unexpected changes before boarding and she was super flexible and helpful through it all. She also went out of her way to accommodate Frida while she was there, arranging and providing everything she might need, and giving Frida her medication daily. Jessica also sent multiple pictures throughout the week, which was great and kept us relaxed and happy knowing she was in loving hands. We’ll definitely book with her again!
Not sure where to begin.. Irina is AMAZING! She was so caring of my dog, so attentive and kind. Provided me with constant updates throughout each day with lots of fun photos and videos. Genuinely went above and beyond from every aspect. When I got my dog back he was super clean, healthy, happy and smiling which even moreso tells me he really enjoyed his stay with her. I can go on and on about how great our experience was, but you should definitely try it for yourselves and see. Thank you again so much for all the love and care you provided us! 💕
I’m very happy to have found Juliana to watch our dog Benji while my husband and I went on our overdue honeymoon trip. We got updates and photos of him during his stay and he looked like he didn’t even miss us! We will definitely continue booking with her in the future!
Anna was absolutely amazing! She watched our Goldendoodle, Zoie, for a full week and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly reliable, communicative, and caring, and it was clear from the start that Zoie was in great hands. We had complete peace of mind while we were away, and came home to a very happy and well cared for dog. Zoie absolutely loved her, and we’ll definitely be using Anna again.
Vanessa was open honest and personable. She shared how Max did each day and what he ate and did not eat. Max was happy to see me when I returned but he continued to show his affection for Vanessa. This showed me that he liked her as well. Thank you Vanessa for taking such good care of me and Max

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
94% of sitters in Queens 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 Queens 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 Queens.
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 Queens. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Queens 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.
