“My trip was very last minute. Had to fly out that day and Grace & Wu took my fur baby cat in. They updated me daily with pictures and texts! My kitty is a very shy one but he slowly adjusted. He was in good hands and I was at ease! Will definitely book again ! 💜”
“Krystal took wonderful care of our dog, Joules, while we were away for two weeks. We were initially nervous about leaving our older dog for that long, but Krystal made the experience completely stress-free. She kept us updated regularly, gave Joules plenty of attention and long walks, and clearly cared about his well-being. We came home to a happy dog and couldn't be more pleased. We highly recommend Krystal!”
“I needed to find a last minute sitter as my usual one is unavailable. She is local to me which is great. We arranged for a meet and greet with our dogs and all went well (her dogs are so sweet!). She is very accommodating to my dog's needs and after picking her up the next day, she was so exhausted from a great time with Lauren and her family (humans and pets). We will definitely be booking with Lauren again!”
“Kecia is a very caring person . She took very good care of my 2 years and 2month old fur Baby. Send me pics everyday to let me know he was good and I loved that .”
“Kiersten and Casey were absolutely incredible! We got photos every day of our trip and constant updates. Shep got plenty of walks and he even met other dogs in their building, completely put our mind at ease on our trip. Can’t recommend them enough!”
“I have to say, this is my first experience with Rover. I was leary at first leaving my Cat with anyone, but Robin made me feel so comfortable. Robin answers quickly and provides pics and updates all along. When I contacted Robin, she came over for a meet and greet and Callie was paying no mind to her. It was nice to see in the pic that Callie allowed her to get close. Callie is very shy and doesn't like to come out of hiding. Seeing pics of Callie checking out the premises gave me such a sigh of relief. I definitely recommend Robin for your fur babies.”
“I was nervous since it was my first time using Rover and my dog was still adjusting to the move to NYC, but we did a meet and greet with Sara and a short visit My pup was happy and relaxed on our walk home, so it seems like he had a good”
“Great dog sitter , was able to accommodate my two dogs on short notice for a 4 day stay during the Christmas holiday . She kept my mind at ease with updates regularly and was very informative and was able to respond fast . Will definitely use her services again in the future .”
“Qin En took good care of my cat Echo while I was out of town. She sent me multiple pictures/videos a day so I can enjoy my vacation while making sure my cat is doing well. She genuinely loves cats and actually any animals! 😂 highly recommend 😊”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Shirley for the weekend. He has separation anxiety and she was accommodating towards his needs to ensure he had a stress free stay with her. I appreciate how she was flexible with my drop off and pick up times. Would definitely hire her again!”
“Renzo was fantastic! This was the first time that I used Rover and I was a little bit of a nervous mom, but Renzo was awesome and out my mind at ease. He made the drop off and pick up very ease and was immediately a natural with Chico. He sent so many pictures and updates to put our minds at ease. He spoiled Chico and even took him on field trips during his stay! Thanks again for a great stay!”
“I am so thankful Charlie was available for a last minute booking/ boarding for our dog, Bibi. After communicating our needs, we knew Charlie was a great fit. Our dog felt right at home, and Charlie communicated frequently throughout her time there, including sending picture and video updates unprompted. We would love the opportunity to re-book with Charlie in the future.”
“This was my first time booking with Vanessa, and it went great! We met beforehand so Maverick could get to know her and her home, which have me peace of mind. Maverick loved playing with Oreo and Moreno, and had access to the backyard all the time. Vanessa kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout his stay. I could tell he was happy and well cared for. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Tara is an amazing sitter. She very clearly puts my pup at ease—she got dog to wear clothes which I could barely do! She is super attentive to your dog’s behaviors and needs, and knows how to keep your comfortable. She’s become my go-to sitter in Brooklyn!”
“Sophie’s second time with Dane. As always very grateful to have found Dane. Feel’s great to know my pup is on vacation while I’m on vacation. Highly Highly recommend! Thank you guys for everything!”
“If we can give more stars we would. Gaby and her husband were so accommodating on the day of check-in and out. Our flight back home was delayed due to the weather causing for us to arrive late night to pick up our baby, Loki but they encouraged us to take our time as they were willing to wait. Our Loki came back to us so happy, clean and smelling good. We were so delighted to receive cute pics and videos of our little guy while away on vacation, reassuring us that he was in great hands. I highly recommend Gaby for anyone looking for a sitter.”
“John was great - Extremely responsive and kept me updated while my dog Ollie stayed with him. I gave so many instructions because Ollie has separation anxiety and John took them all very well. When I got Ollie back he was so calm and relaxed because John took such good care of him!”

Mehnaz was the absolute best. We had to be out of town and with only a couple days notice, Mehnaz was available and took excellent care of Chi-Chi. Chi-Chi was very nervous to be away from the family and Mehnaz was able to calm her down and relate to her very fast. We were also late picking her up due to the long distance we were driving and unforeseen traffic conditions, Mehnaz was very accommodating and understanding. We really appreciate how well Mehnaz took care of Chi Chi.
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!
I left my two dogs with Ma and her family for a 10-day trip, and they took excellent care of them. They not only fed and cared for my dogs, but also spent quality time playing with them and regularly sent me photos and videos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. What impressed me most was how attentive Ma was to my dogs' behavior. It was clear that she spent a lot of time with them and genuinely cared about their well-being. During their stay, both of my dogs developed diarrhea. Ma notified me promptly, kept me updated on their condition, and worked closely with me on how to treat them. When I became concerned that one of my dogs might need veterinary care, she was ready to take him to my veterinarian immediately. She also carefully administered his medication, and he recovered well. Knowing that my dogs were in such caring and capable hands allowed me to enjoy my trip with much less worry. I highly recommend Ma and her family, and I will definitely book with them again in the future.
This was Timmy’s third stay with Denis and his wife, and at this point, they’ve truly become his home away from home. The moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in the best hands. What stands out most is the genuine love and care they show him. The daily photos and videos always make us smile because you can clearly see how comfortable, happy, and loved Timmy is. The cuddles, attention, and affection they give him are so heartfelt—it’s obvious they treat him like one of their own. Knowing Timmy is with people who care for him so deeply allows us to fully relax and enjoy our trip without any stress or worry. Denis and his wife are repeat sitters for life, and we’re incredibly grateful to have found them. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, trustworthy, and truly exceptional pet sitters.
Judith is one of the most reliable sitter i have met. My baby Ace was safe, comfortable, and well cared for while i was away. I really enjoyed the consistency and reliability in communication along with the daily updates/videos. I am in awe! I really can’t say enough about how great Judith and her family was to Ace. This was my first time leaving Ace alone and i was hesitant, but her warmth and love of animals was apparent from our first meet. Phenomenal job taking care of Ace Judith 🤎🐩🙏🏾 I will absolutel be booking again!!!
We needed to find a new Rover sitter and decided to reach out to Janie. After a quick meet and greet, we were confident Momo would be in good hands. We were only gone for the weekend, but we received plenty of photo and video updates from Janie. Momo got lots of love and plenty of playtime. Janie treated Momo like she was her own pup and we greatly appreciated her care and attention!
I can’t say enough great things about this dog boarding experience! From the moment we arrived, it was clear my dog was in caring, capable hands. What really stood out was how she took the time to care for my dog at her own pace, making sure she felt comfortable and safe the entire stay. I came back to a happy, pooped out pup, which says everything. Highly recommend!
Megan and Brian are the absolute best! They took amazing care of our beagle Benji for five days and treated him like one of their own. We received regular updates and pictures. We could tell he was happy, comfortable, and well-loved the entire time. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We’re so grateful for the excellent care and would absolutely trust them again in the future. Highly recommend!

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
