“Rafaelina and her family have created a dog utopia! Their large backyard is basically an obstacle course for pets. They are very kind people and know what they are doing, how to treat dogs with unique personalities, and how to make all pets comfortable. Our pet had his first 'staycation' with Rafaelina over the weekend and it seems he had a great time.”
“Jocelyn has watched Tofu a few times now, and Tofu always comes home happy, clean, and healthy! Jocelyn is a great sitter, and I plan to book with her again! I highly recommend Jocelyn for anyone in need of a dog sitter :)”
“Karine is awesome! She is extremely organized and communicates really well. I felt confident that my pup was in good hands. He was reluctant at first but settled in nicely and enjoyed his stay there. We already have plans to return. We were very pleased with the planning, experience, knowledge, communications, thoughfulness and care they showed.”
“Scooter had the BEST holiday week with Tabitha and her family. It’s nerve-racking leaving your dog somewhere new for the first time, especially for a full week. We got so many picture updates of scooter having a blast and playing throughout the week and he even made a new doggie friend which can be hit or miss for him. We will happily send him to her family again anytime they are up for hosting. Highly recommend!!”
“Angie was great. She understands cat well. We left our kitten to her place, she took care of her and we didn’t have to worry about her. She was also flexible with the timings which I really appreciate as we were running late from our trip. She shared with us pictures of our cat and we felt relieved.”
“We were worried that our Laima would have a hard time with separation anxiety, (first time away from us in the 2 yrs since we rescued her) but Rene and her pups made her feel right at home. The pictures she posted spoke volume on how well Laima enjoyed her stay! We hope to use Rene again soon!”
“Jennifer took great care of Watson and he seemed to really enjoy playing with her dog as well. Jennifer's apartment is clean and well-kept and we felt very comfortable leaving our furry guy there for the weekend.”
“Brittany is AMAZING! She took the time to work with our nervous guy while he stayed with her over the weekend. We can’t thank her enough and Monroe can’t wait to come back!”
About: What sets me apart is my proven experience managing high-volume, multi-pet households, at one point caring for 11 dogs and cats simultaneously. This taught me to manage group dynamics, keep structured routines, and anticipate behavioral needs with ease. Along with daily care for my own two dogs, I provide gentle senior care, mobility support, and attentive, safety-focused attention tailored to your pet's needs. Taking care of pets is already a big part of my everyday life. Because my schedule is flexible, I am easily able to match your pet's normal routine. I have plenty of time during the morning, mid-day, and evening to give your pets my full attention, take them on walks, and feed them right on time. Whether in your home or mine, safety and trust come first through secure, pet-proofed environments, strict adherence to established routines, and constant supervision. In client homes, I respect your space and maintain precise feeding and exercise schedules to keep your pet's routine seamless and stress-free. In my home, I offer a controlled setting with separated feeding areas and careful supervision, keeping you updated with frequent photos and messages so you always have full peace of mind.
“Thank you Katherine for watching my little girl for the second time. I appreciate you sending me video clips on how my little lady was doing while I was away. I know she was in good hands. Thank you again! 😀”
“Laura was awesome! She clearly loves dogs and took great care of our dog! From the moment we met her for a pre-stay visit, we knew that she was very mature, loving and responsible. While we were away, she was responsive and kept us updated the whole time. We were gone over Thanksgiving, and she asked if she could include our dog in her families plans and we were thrilled that Huckie had such a warm welcome! We would definitely use Laura again!”
“Kyungwon and Henry were absolutely wonderful sitters! They were so caring with my pup and paid close attention to every detail of his schedule. Since he’s still a puppy, they took extra care to keep up with his nap times and made sure he was comfortable around their other dogs. They also sent so many photos and videos throughout the day, so I never had to wonder how he was doing. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Their communication and thoughtful care gave us complete peace of mind. We highly recommend them and would happily have our little one stay again!”
“We are very happy to ask Maureen for our Chamonix. Maureen was waiting for us in front of her house to do a first meeting before sitting. She’s very reliable and responsible. She kindly updated how Chamonix’s doing through her stay. We will definitely return to her if we needs someone next time.”
“Omar is reliable and makes it easy for us to drop and pick up. He sent pics and video everyday and my kids were very excited to see every morning. My dog is 90 plus pound Lab and seems he was very happy during his stay. Definitely come back.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Scarsdale
Robert took care of my energetic and very sweet dog, Oscar for a week while my family and I went away. Off the bat at our meet and greet I was confident Oscar was in good hands. It’s clear Rob is a dog lover who makes sure his guest dogs feel at home. Rob communicated quickly and clearly from my initial reservation request to pick up and shared pics while we were away so we knew Oscar was doing well. Before using rover we boarded Oscar and we definitely won’t be doing that again - it was great to know he was comfortable, safe and having fun while we were out of town. Thanks Rob!
Tracy was amazing when looking after our Charlie! She was super nice and welcoming, so much so Charlie felt right at home. She was very attentive with keeping us updated and of course with pictures of how good he was. This was our first time using rover and it couldn’t have gone better! Will definitely be using Tracy again in the future for our little man!
I feel that I left my dog to my family member. They took care of her as their own dog. My dog had a chance to be with other family and feels safe like vacation for her, interact with other people, not to be timid with strangers. She comes home as good as she left. When I ask for extension of day to care for her, they did not hesitate to say yes. I was traveling away , and it make you feel comfortable that somebody is watching and taking care of my dog in the way I take care of her. Great service!.
Tabitha and her family took care of our dog Penny for over a week and it was a fantastic experience. She was very communicative / accommodating, would send us daily pictures and videos, and we felt very comfortable with her. You could tell they enjoyed taking care of dogs and treating them as their own. Penny seemed very happy with her stay. We would definitely use them again!
Taylor was amazing with our little one. She took care of our Shih Tzu for over a week. She attentively listened when we explained his needs and asked well thought questions. She welcomed a meet and greet for our little one to get acquainted with her and a new place, which was very helpful. While we were away, she not only sent us daily updates, pics and videos, but went above and beyond to make him comfortable. She even bought him a toy! By the time we went to pick him up he didn’t want to leave! We will be utilizing her for a long time. Your little one will be in the best of care with her.
What does every dog ‘parent’ want if they have to leave their dog with a sitter? 100% peace of mind. For their dog to be cared for as they would be by you. To be updated regularly and feel great after each update. And to come home to find that their dog was just as happy and loved and safe as they would have been with you. Luz and Michelle tick every single box. There aren’t enough superlatives to express the gratitude I feel for their love and care of Allie!!! ❤️🐶⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️➕➕➕🐶❤️
Christina was great with tofu! We got regular updates and also tofu seemed to be having a blast with her puppy ! Would definitely pick her again if we ever need to board him, was super patient with our young 1.5 yr old highly energetic dog 🐶 . Also as an added bonus as she has her own puppy - our dog got a nice friend over the course of his stay!

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 Scarsdale 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 Scarsdale 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 Scarsdale.
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 Scarsdale. On Rover:
- 84% 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 Scarsdale 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.
