“Excellent sitter! We're thoroughly impressed and will definitely be in touch again. Lauren was wonderfully kind to our cat and gave us daily updates with pictures. Never felt so much peace of mind while out of town!”
“Angela graciously accepted our last-minute boarding request for our cat and was incredibly accommodating, even when our we were delayed due to traffic and weather. From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease—she is warm, caring, and clearly loves animals. She thoughtfully kept our cat separate from her dogs, which we really appreciated. Throughout the stay, our cat seemed comfortable, relaxed, and happy. Angela provided timely updates and was always quick to respond to our questions. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter.”
“People say they love animals, but not everyone truly does! I believe Kimberly truly loves animals. I feel she treated my puppies like they were hers. I am fairly new to leaving my girls with a sitter, Kimberly put my mind at ease. She sent a lot of updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. I will have Kimberly watch Thelma and Louise anytime I need a sitter again.”
“Annmarie did a fantastic job taking care of our 3 month old fur baby!. Her communication while watching our fur baby was great and we appreciated receiving pictures of her playing and getting all the cuddles. We will absolutly book Annmarie for any future dog sitter needs and highly recomend her!!.”
“This is my second year in a row, leaving Wednesday with Michael for my holiday travels. He takes extremely good care of her and, honestly, I am pretty sure she considers his house a second home.”
“Our two pups just completed their first stay with Deidre and we couldn’t be happier on the care they received and the communication she had with us. We hope that she will have the availability to care from them in the near future but anticipate that she will grow in popularity due to her 1st class service!”
“My lab had such a great time at Dog Camp! I got lots of updates and communication and I felt very comfortable leaving my furbaby in Holden’s care. I’ll be happy to bring Linus there any time we need daycare or overnight stays.”
“Momo was relaxed when we picked him up, which is not his normal mode outside of our family. Andrew and Mariah were very communicative and professional. Very much appreciate them!”
“What a wonderful experience we had using Rover for the 1st time. Scott was an absolute pleasure to work with. He is very caring and took exceptional care with our 2 dogs. He provided frequent updates on how are pets were doing exploring his property and settling down for the evening. We couldn't have asked anything else he could have done to make sure our dogs were comfortable for their stay. Thanks again Scott!”
“Alison was absolutely incredible with our dog, Woody! She watched him for 11 days while we were away on our honeymoon. She provided daily updates with photos and videos, so we knew Woody was having a great time! She was great with communication, and very flexible with us as well. Highly recommend! ☺️”
“We boarded our two Bernese Mountain Dogs and they had an absolute blast playing with the other pups in her large yard. She was confident, experienced, and clearly knew how to manage a group of dogs safely. We really appreciated the consistent photo and video updates. We’ll definitely be bringing them back next time we need boarding!”
“Jerrie is the best!! She is loving and kind. She maintains communication with text messages and photos of the dog while in her care. Our dog, Hazel, loves to be with her and enjoys the atmosphere. We felt at peace while on vacation knowing Jerrie was caring for Hazel as if her own.”
“Kristin was great! She sent me pics of my dog everyday and kept me updated with everything. I can tell that she took great care of my dog because she was so happy when I picked her up. Definitely want to book again :) thank you again, Kristin!”
“Keep was excellent. From the first meeting and thru daily updates we had total confidence that Chili was happy, had plenty of exercise and being really well looked after. Thanks!”
“This was our first time boarding with Amanda but it won't be the last. Griffy seemed comfortable and happy with their crew. We appreciated the daily updates and pictures! Thanks so much, Amanda!”
“Daisy was well taken care of, had lots of play time, and adventures! Marianne was a fantastic communicator - we appreciated all the pictures and videos of Daisy during her extended stay. She had a little ear infection and they administered all her medications. We would definitely rebook!”

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
98% of Rochester sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Rochester landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Rochester 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 Rochester.
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.
You and your Rochester 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 WA 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.
