“Elli was awesome with our dog, Matilda. She sent us pictures and kept us updated on her well-being. I felt very comfortable leaving our pup with Elli as I knew she was getting excellent care and lots of love. Five stars!”
“Nicole and Michael took wonderful care of our boy Murphy and communicated with us regularly with texts and photos to keep us updated on how he was doing. We are very comfortable using them again and recommending them to others.👍”
“Mikkal’s place was perfect for our energetic pup. She had plenty of space to play and came home happy and tired out. Mikkal was very responsive and gave frequent updates. We will definitely be booking with him again in the future!”
“I see why Jude is a star sitter, she was amazing with Remy, always keeping me updated with photos. Remy liked it so much he was whining when it was time to go home, he didn't want to go!! I will definitely keep her for a long time hopefully!!”
“Definitely recommend Chris & Lindsey. This was my 1st time using Rover and I was nervous. They communicated with me frequently throughout the day and kept my mind at ease! If the need arises again I will absolutely book again with them”
“Carolyn was so amazing with our 3 year old golden, Ellie. She sent photos every day that we were away and updated us on walks or playtime. Ellie looked so happy in every picture and that made me feel confident that she was in good hands while we were on vacation. Carolyn is funny and so sweet. She’s a dog lover at heart and it shows in how she cared for Ellie. Ellie can’t wait to go back!”
“As usual, Jen is the ultimate pet sitter. Her attention to detail from sending daily pictures and updates to flexibility in her schedule keeps her at the top of my list for Wolfie. Thank you again!”
“It was my first time using Rover but Laurie made me feel totally comfortable with the process and I’m so glad that I didn’t go with the traditional boarding option. Asher got to run around the yard and socialize with the other pups and the daily updates and pictures were great! The whole experience was excellent and I couldn’t have asked for a better peace of mind while on vacation knowing that he was in good hands.”
“Desiree was amazing with my dog Ellie! She kept me updated with texts and pictures and even gave her a bath! I would 100 percent recommend her to care for your pet!! I’ll definitely be booking with her again !”
“Alex and her family took such great care of my Harley who has a lot of separation anxiety. Plenty of update pics to ease the mind! Will definitely be continuing to put Harley in their care for the future. Thank you!!”
“Mary is the perfect Rover for us. We left Corby, our yorkie-mix with Mary and never worried once. We knew she missed her two little dogs and would spoil Corby. He had a great time in her fenced in yard and made himself right at home on the sofa and checking out the activity outside. A quiet country setting Corby will be visiting every time we go away. She sent us picture updates and notes.”
“Richelle was amazing with my puppy Kairo while I was away on my trip! She kept me updated every single day with pictures and videos, which made me feel so comfortable and reassured the whole time. Kairo had such a great time with her, and that means everything to me because I do not just leave him with anyone. She was caring, trustworthy, and made the whole experience stress-free. I would absolutely recommend Richelle to anyone looking for a great pet sitter, and Kairo will definitely be welcomed back into her hands again!”
“Mikaela was really great! She was gracious to watch our pup while we attended a wedding nearby and was extremely communicative leading up and throughout his stay! We would absolutely book with Mikaela again.”
“A Big Shout Out to Brittney for taking care of our Finley for his first weekend away from home. We were a little nervous since our dog has some separation issues. But she kept us updated through text and photos and he looked like he had a great time with her and her cutie dog Pierre. Dogs got along well and our boy looked relaxed which in turn let us know we made the right choice when picking Brittney. We will definitely call her again for future help.. Thanks Brittney!!!”
About: I have had a love for animals for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I was always surrounded by dogs and loved helping take care of them. I currently have my own dog, who I absolutely adore, and we love going on walks, playing, and exploring new places together! I also have experience caring for cats, including feeding them, giving them medication, and making sure they receive plenty of love and attention. I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities, and I always make it my priority to keep them happy, safe, and comfortable. I would love the opportunity to care for your fur babies and treat them like my own! 🐾❤️ I currently work in Saratoga hospital 3 times a week, Sunday Wednesday and Friday! I am in school for nursing but my schedule is extremely flexible with that and most of my classes are online! I will follow the directions my client gives me on how to handle their pets in their home. Where I let them out, how much I feed them, if I can take them on a walk ect!
“Ginger took excellent care of Millie during our vacation. I was very nervous as this was her first time away from home. We were looking for someone who would love Millie as much as we do, Ginger is that perfect person! She is kind and loving and treated Millie like her own. We had a meet & greet with Ginger and Ranger (Ginger's sweet dog) prior to our boarding. This helped put my mind at ease that our pup would be well cared for. During the boarding Ginger provided me with daily updates and pictures. Millie was very happy during her stay and well cared for. I will definitely be using Ginger again in the future, she is just wonderful.”

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 Shushan 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 Shushan 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 Shushan.
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 Shushan. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 Shushan 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.
