“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!”
“Korin watched Hunter our King Charles Cavalier over this weekend. We were without a sitter at the last minute. Korin was happy to save our weekend plans by accommodating us. She took great care of Hunter and kept us updated throughout the weekend. I highly recommend Korin for all your pet sitting needs.”

“Thank you Heather for taking care of my Storm for 10 days. I was given daily photo updates and general updates. Communication was great and she did an amazing job with the care of my daughter’s best friend?”
“Marla is fantastic with dogs. I could not have asked for better dogsitter. Cubbie came back calm and happy, and that’s unusual when there are other dogs and new people around him as he is generally a a nervous, timid rescue pup. Highly recommend.”
“Great family. Hard working and very reliable. Plus has no problem working with whatever situation you might get stuck on during a vacation. Great job we will book again.”
“Gabby took excellent, loving care of my puppy, Emmy, who needed attentive care for a paw injury. Gabby and family provided a warm, welcoming home, and of many caregivers that I have met so far through Rover, were most knowledgeable and experienced in dog care. I received daily updates and pictures, and was confident that Emmy was being cared for as though she were at home. I would highly recommend Gabby and will certainly be back myself.”
“Rachel and Henrik (and their two wonderful kids!) watched our two Goldendoodles for the weekend, and we couldn’t have had a better experience. From the start, it was clear this was a perfect fit—we did a meet-and-greet beforehand, and instantly felt comfortable. Their home is beautiful, clean, and has a great backyard where our dogs had plenty of space to run and play. More importantly, our dogs were treated like part of the family—they got tons of attention, snuggles, and care all weekend. We also really appreciated the frequent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. When we dropped them off, our dogs were so excited they ran right in without hesitation—that says everything. You can truly tell how much Rachel and Henrik love dogs and care for them as their own. One of the nicest families we’ve met, and we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were so well cared for. We will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional dog care.”
“"I cannot recommend our pet sitter enough! They provided exceptional care for our puppy while we attended a wedding Our pet “gigi” was happy, Marcela went above and beyond, sending us regular updates and photos to give us peace of mind. Their love and dedication to animals truly shines through in their work. We will definitely be using their services again in the future!"”
“Bo had his first sleepover at John’s and had an awesome visit ( as usual) !! John REALLY knows dogs and we always feel completely worry free that Bo is being well taken care of . And it goes without saying that he has THE BEST time there and comes home happy and tired from all the playtime….you can see it on his face from the pictures John sends us, he is actually “ smiling” the whole time..lol !!!!! We are beyond happy and grateful that we have found someone so loving, reliable, and professional to take care of our Bo when we are away”
“BEST VACAY EVER!!! This was Striker's second stay with Vanessa and her family!!! I get daily photos and updates throughout his stay with them. Truly a blessing to have you and your family taking care of our Golden Boy!!! We always know he's in good hands when we leave Striker with you!!! He'll be back! XOXO”
About: I’ve always been a dog person, and spending time with pups has always been something that brings me so much happiness. I find being around animals incredibly therapeutic, and I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I’ve had 13 years of experience caring for my own two dogs, which has taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and responsibility. I understand that pets are family, and I will always make it my priority to ensure your furry friend feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I can’t wait to meet your pets and give them the same love and attention I give my own! As a college student, I have a relatively flexible daily schedule that allows me to make plenty of time for pet care. I can plan my day around walks, feedings, playtime, and any other needs your pet may have. I’ve always been someone who wants to bring home every dog I see, and I’ve been fighting the urge to add a third dog to my own family for a while now! Since that’s not quite in the cards right now, I figured pet sitting would be the perfect way to spend more time with animals and share some extra love with other people’s furry friends. I genuinely look forward to making pet care part of my everyday routine! I’ve had two very different dogs for the past 13 years, so I’m familiar with a variety of personalities and energy levels! One of my dogs is a total couch potato who loves cuddles, relaxing, and spending time together, while my other is a Blue Heeler mix who is full of energy and absolutely obsessed with playing fetch (especially with her tennis balls!). I love both sides of having dogs, whether that means relaxing on the couch with a cuddly pup or getting outside and playing with a more energetic one. Having experience with both has taught me that every dog has different needs, and I genuinely enjoy adapting to their personalities and making sure they get the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve!
“Laura, Carolina and Enrique were very welcoming of Nora. They took really good care of her. It was her first time here and she loved their backyard. Nora is a mini aussie who loves to run and their backyard was perfect for her.”
“Maria was wonderful and very caring with Molly and sent us videos, which made us feel at ease. Molly was so happy after spending time with Maria and their pup, she came back content and slept the rest of the day. We’ll definitely be reaching out to Maria again next time!”
“Christina was extremely attentive to the dogs, their needs and welfare. She took great care of them and was very flexible as our plans changed after booking. We plan to use her again.”
About: I’ve had a dog in my life since I was 7. I’ve always had a great relationship with them. Any new environment I go to I get to know the dogs first. My friends always point out the special relationship I have with them. I’ve taken care of friends dogs throught the years too. About 3 years ago I found a puppy on the street and raised him to be the good boy you see on my profile picture. I am very comfortable with dogs and understand them very well. I hope you trust me with your little friend. I am currently away from home for a few months so for now none. Usually everyday. I take my dog most places I go with me and make sure to let him run around and let out the crazy high amounts of energy he has haha I’m living with my mother here. She loves animals and is excited of the prospect of furry friends coming over. We have a fenced yard with a pool. I’ll also be taking them for walks regularly. At the house we’ll just be hanging out together!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sound Beach
Kathryn was absolutely wonderful! From the very first meeting, I felt comfortable leaving Ares in her care. She is warm, caring, and genuinely loves dogs. Ares got along beautifully with her own pups and clearly felt right at home. It was such a relief knowing he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. Thank you, Kathryn, for treating Ares like part of your family. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! ❤️🐾
We used Natalia for the first time when we went on a Europe trip. We were very nervous since this would be Toby's first time away from us and we out of the country! We did a meet and greet one week prior so we could make sure it was a good match since our dog is very emotionally needy! The yard was secure and Toby appeared to be comfortable with the other dogs and the environment. Toby stay was ten days and Natalia was great. She sent us updates and pictures everyday. He was treated like royalty and was even allowed on the sofa and the bed! We were very happy with Natalia and highly recommend her. We will be using her services again soon.
Andrés and his wife are absolutely wonderful with our girl, Olive! They treat her with so much love, care, and attention every time she stays with them. They always keep us updated with thoughtful messages and pictures, which gives us such peace of mind while we’re away. It’s clear how much they care about Olive, and we’re so grateful to have found people who love her as much as they do. The best part is knowing that Olive loves them right back! We couldn’t ask for better people and highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving, trustworthy care for their fur baby!
Our dog Murphy was happy and healthy when we picked him up. I wasn't there to see in person but I believe that Gen (and her own pooches) brought Murphy into their home and treated him well. It is great to know that we have such a fine resource nearby for when we need to leave Murphy for whatever reason.
Megan was fantastic! She took excellent care of my fur baby. I was nervous to leave her for the first time and Megan went above and beyond keeping me in the loop and sending me periodic updates and photos. I would highly recommend her services and plan to use her again for my next work trip!

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.
97% of sitters in Sound Beach 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 Sound Beach 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 Sound Beach.
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 Sound Beach. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 Sound Beach 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.
