“Jessica and her family watched our pup Clementine for a long weekend. She was a little nervous since it was her first time away with new friends but Jess made her feel so welcome and she got comfortable right away! We touched base daily and she was great at communicating. She was also flexible and easy going which helped make everything easier! Would be happy to recommend to anyone and would gladly have them watch our furbabe again! ??”
“Bev and her husband Bob are such good people. they’ve become our dogs second home when we’re away. we’re retired now and just wouldn’t be able to go and leave Lilly so having them to take care of her allows us to not worry and enjoy time away. they’re the best😘🐶”
“Michael was great! Our one dog has anxiety issues and is VERY wary of men. He made up to Michael in just a few minutes! Both dogs were relaxed and made themselves at home quickly. If we are ever in the area again, we will definitely bring them back to Michael's. Stress free for us AND our pups and none of the guilt of a kennel!”
“Nichole took such good care of our dog, Juniper! She was so well cared for and enjoyed playing with Nichole's dog. Nichole sent lots of pictures and updates and even went as far as to clean her ears when she saw they were irritated. We could not recommend her more!”
“Jackie made it possible to leave on a 2 week vacation. All 3 of our dogs were well taken care of. Jackie did everything we asked. We will definitely ask Jackie to take care of our family again. Thank you”
“If I could leave 100 stars I would!!! Dana and her daughter Emma and pup Tessa were awesome with my skittish Mila. They treated Mila as their own and provided exceptional care...I was afraid she wouldn't want to come back home. Dana sent pictures of Mila enjoying to put my mind at ease. Thank you for taking such good care of our baby ❤️”
“Alena was VERY accommodating. We ran into a hiccup during boarding and she was so helpful in working out a solution. I loved the pictures and videos of Kirra!”
“Ashley and Phillip always do an amazing job taking care of Westley. He’s always so excited when he goes to their house for a visit and Ashley does a great job of sending daily updates and photos. Thank you!”
“Naomi and Sam are wonderful! My 90lbs dog spent the Christmas holidays with them. I couldn’t have hoped for a better family for him. They took him in and treated him as part of their family. My dog hang out with their Labrador and their kids. And, from that picture Naomi sent, we can tell that they formed a special bond. My dog even got gifts from Santa ☺️. We thank Naomi and Sam for everything they did for our 🐶.”
About: As a fellow pet parent, I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone new. That’s why I treat every pet like part of my own little furry family—warm cuddles, silly moments, and all. Your pet’s happiness and comfort mean everything to me. I’m available for boarding pet care on the weekends mainly. Also, open to be flexible and accommodate special requests. Please message me with your questions. I have a smaller fenced yard for quick potty breaks throughout the day and take my own two doggies for regular walks in the neighborhood as well. A minimum of 2x per day, rain or snow.
“We took our two year old Westie to Jen and Brents for an overnight stay to see how she would do. Maggie loved being there. She was so well cared for that when we came to pick her up it was like a quick 'Hi!!' and kiss and she was off. We where curious to see how she would fair at betime but she snuggled in on their bed (although she is a 'bed hog!!!' or I say a 'pillow hog?'. but felt right at home. They spent time playing with her with her toys, making sure she had lots of outside time. Maggie loves to be outside. So we would highly recomend Jen and Brent to take care of your beloved pet anytime if you are looking for exceptional care. We will be using them again for sure.”
“We are very comfortable leaving our guy with Emmy. Her home is a good setting and her communication is excellent. She consistently sent pictures to keep us updated. Will definitely continue using her.”
“Charlene is a kind, calm and pleasant person. She took amazing care of Lenny for an overnight at her place. Charlene was very easy to communicate with and she sent sweet photos and videos of Lenny’s stay. I would HIGHLY recommend Charlene if you are looking for a loving place (with a fenced yard) for your dog to stay. Thanks so much!”
“Very professional, warm and friendly. Rosie and Wilbur were well cared for and came home happy and rested. We will definitely use Andreas and Rover again .”
“Donnie had so much fun thanks to Alexis! Our puppy came home excited to see us and also a little calmer after spending time with her other dogs. Myself and Donnie are excited to see Alexis again in the very near future. 10/10”
About: Hi, I’m Daniel! I’ve been caring for animals since I was a kid, and it's always been a passion of mine. I currently have 3 amazing dogs of my own, so I know just how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I also get a little extra insight into animal health and behavior thanks to my girlfriend of 6 years, who works in a veterinary clinic. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just some good old belly rubs, your pup will be treated like family with me! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to be available anytime your pet needs attention. Whether it’s a mid-day walk, playtime, feeding, or just some company throughout the day, I’m always around to give pets the care and affection they deserve. Having my own dogs, I’m already used to a routine that revolves around their needs - and I’m more than happy to include yours in that too! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own familiar environment. I follow your instructions closely - whether it’s feeding schedules, walk routines, medication, or playtime - to make sure your pet’s day goes as smoothly as possible. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family, giving them the attention, companionship, and care they need while you're away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Shooktown
Jessica was great! She allowed a home visit to make sure it was a good fit which made me feel more comfortable before booking. Her home was clean and welcoming. I was sent several pictures while I was away so I knew Sadie was happy and comfortable. Jessica is very easy to communicate with and made the whole process very smooth.
Jordan and Nathan are the best! This is the second time that our dog Millie has stayed at there home, and we are so happy with the love and care that she received. They are so no flexible with pickup and dropoff times, and send lots of pictures throughout the stay. Millie always looks so relaxed and happy. Jordan and Nathan's dogs share their space so kindly, and Millie feels right at home. I will definitely be booking again in the future. Also, I have referred two others to Jordan and Nathan, and they both loved the care their dogs received as well.
Ashley took our dog when we had a last minute event. Gracie was well loved and cared for at Ashley's house. Ashley has a good knowledge of dogs and their behaviors and boundaries and was able to help Gracie adjust quickly to a new house. Her home was clean and organized and she has a fenced in back yard. I recommend her.

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.
95% of sitters in Shooktown 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 Shooktown 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 Shooktown.
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 Shooktown. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Shooktown 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.
