“Coco had a great first stay with Cindy and her sweet family and dog Pepper. Cindy kept us up-to-date with how the stay was going by sending many photos during Coco’s stay. She was also very accommodating in terms of last-minute changes to the drop off and pick up times.”
“Great feedback and an understanding and accommodating of my dog's quirks. Traveling is made so much easier when you can feel that your dog is well taken care of in your absence. That is what I experience here.”
“This was our first time leaving Maggie at a non-family members home so we had a lot of worries. Melissa was very welcoming and explained her process of on boarding new friends. Everything went smoothly and we got pictures everyday of Maggie’s adventures. We will definitely be using Melissa in the future.”
“Christine was amazing to our pup while we stayed at a house that does not allow dogs. She is super friendly and caring. A true dog lover. We dropped off our dog on her Birthday and Christine sent special photos helping her celebrate it. Thanks again!”
“Amber was great and would definitely book with her again. She's very attentive and we appreciated the daily check-ins and videos. We were able to have peace of mind that our Rio was well taken care of while away.”
“Victoria was terrific in taking care of my dog.....she was very responsive in setting things up and was super sweet when I came to drop Loulou off and pick her up....he family was there too, and they couldn't have been nicer.”
“Julie watched our 4.5 year Poodle for a week while we were away on a family vacation. She was really passionate about caring for Parker. We would contact her to check in and she always responded immediately. Parker came home happy. We would absolutely use her again.”
“Giana took such good care of my dog - he's currently passed out and snoring, which I feel he will be doing all week! He loved her dogs and played so well with them. She also sent a ton of pictures and even did a cute photo shoot!! I am so happy we found her!”
“Nadjeska was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Ollie! We hired her for the first time recently, and she immediately made us feel at ease. She provides such a fun, loving environment for the dogs, with plenty of opportunities to socialize and play, all while being watched and cared for 24/7. Ollie had a great time playing with the other dogs, and we could tell he was so well taken care of. Nadjeska was also incredibly communicative and sent us photos every day, which meant so much to us and gave us peace of mind while we were away. She is such a sweet and kind person who genuinely loves dogs, and it truly shows in the care she provides. We are so happy we found her and would absolutely recommend her!”
“I am very particular about who I leave my dogs, Lilli and Zuzu with when I have go away. I am so happy that I found Melissa, who has made my vacation separation from my dogs seamless. She is so warm and a true animal lover. Melissa Has two amazing dogs, Fellini and saki, who treat their guests as warmly as she does. I am completely confident and relaxed to know that my dogs are at home, safe, and completely happy staying with Melissa. Linda B”
“I can not express how extraordinary Lenny was with our Max! We’ve never used Rover before, and let me just say that as soon as I met Lenny, I knew Max would be in great hands! She made a promise to my 5 year-old that she would make sure that we knew Max was okay and would send updates and pictures it was superb. Our dog was so happy, content and had absolutely zero anxiety. Lenny is highly recommended and we will be using her again. She’s 10 stars in our book! ❤️”
“We have confirmed with Jared twice, and will continue to do so! Jared is caring, mild mannered and highly communicative. We appreciate having the opportunity to leave our pup with someone reliable! Thanks, Jared!”
“Ashley went above and beyond to take care of my dog. She was flexible with pick up and drop off. She made sure he had adequate air conditioning during a heat wave. She went to great lengths to give him his medications. And she even gave him a bath before returning him to me. She is knowledgeable and caring. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Had such a wonderful experience with John. From the moment we dropped our pup off, we felt completely at ease knowing she was in caring and capable hands. Communication was great throughout and Cookie came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which says everything. It’s obvious that every dog is treated like family and in a clean and safe space. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend John to anyone looking for trustworthy care for their pet!”
“Kelly could not have been more communicative and kind. She took such good care of our pup, and he came home exhausted (which is what we hoped for since he’s so high energy). She kept us up to date on all necessary things during our pups stay, and send videos and pictures too. We will definitely consider booking again in the future!”

“Marla and Debbie were fabulous! They allowed us to stop by with Kacy to have some time with them prior to our trip (and to put me at ease). They have a great fenced yard for some exercise. They sent me videos of Kacy during our trip and she always looked happy. If you need a sitter, Marla is the one to book.”
“Nigel took to Chris when they first met. Before the scheduled boarding Chris communicated with me to arrange the details and make sure that Nigel had whatever he needed. The hand-off went smoothly and Nigel got to run around in Chris' yard off leash and was a happy, happy doggy. Chris sent daily updates with pictures and video so I could see that Nigel was happy and having a good time. I would board my dog with Chris any time.”
“Gerald watched our dog in his home for 10 days, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Our dog can get anxious when he's away from home, but he was calm, comfortable, and clearly well cared for throughout his stay. Gerald took him on walks in the nearby park and provided excellent care. He was also a fantastic communicator, sending regular updates, photos, and videos that gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. I would absolutely recommend Gerald to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. We'll definitely be booking with him again in the future!”

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 Riverside 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 Riverside.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Riverside 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 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.
