“Jeff provided an amazing experience for our dog, Vinnie. We received pictures each day , allowing us to feel comfortable and know Vinnie was in good hands. He is nurturing, kind, and very experienced. The accommodations for the pups were top notch and we are happy to have this option for Vinnie going forward. Thank you Jeff!”
“Mildred was a wonderful sitter to work with. Great communication and prompt responses. My boy had a blast in the beautiful big fenced in yard. I definitely would book again in the future”
“Bruno had such a good stay with Donna and we felt completely comfortable leaving him somewhere new because of our previous visit and her great communication! He keeps running to the car wagging his tail since returning home- I think he is hoping to return for a visit!”
“Amruta was great, she is super caring, professional, communicated regularly to make us comfortable. Rufus clearly had a great time and came home happy and well cared for. We could tell he had fun and felt right at home. If you're looking for boarding your pet, look no further. I highly recommend!”
“Mario (and his sweet family) were amazing! Our dog is a bit anxious and specific about who she feels comfortable with, but they were all so attentive and loving that they had her opening up in no time. I would highly recommend Mario to anyone for top-notch pet care.”
“Maria (and family) were lifesavers and saved our trip by having availability last minute when another sitter canceled on us. Our dogs looked so happy and loved while we were gone. Definetly recommend and look forward to using her again!”
“Cherissa and Ricardo were great with my 4yr old pup. They took very good care of him and sent pictures of him and let me know he was doing great. I would recommend them to anyone to watch their dog! Great job thank you!”
“Cory was a great host for Henny. Her dogs were friendly and she was super communicative! She sent lots of photos and videos which helped soothe my pet parent anxiety. Would definitely book with her again”
“Chelsea is a wonderful dog sitter!! She is prompt, responsive to texts and emails and is an absolute delight. She treated my dog like one of her own. Couldn’t ask for a better dog watcher. Will DEFINITELY call her again!!”
“I would definitely recommend Brittany to anyone that needs boarding for their pets. She treated our puppy Storm like she was one of her own. She sent us pictures of Storm having a great time and assured us that she was playing the entire time she was there. When we picked her up she was clearly happy and exhausted. We will definitely be using Brittany again in the future.”
“Nayeli was great! Excellent communications and expectations. We did a meet and greet to make sure Rosie and her pups got along. She was attentive to Rosie's needs and personality quirks, and sent lovely updates that were very reassuring. Will definitely book again!”
“Thalya was great and really looked after my dog Duke really well! We were gone for over 20 days and Thalya really went above and beyond to make Duke feel at home! Would recommend to all!”
“Absolute peace of mind through the entire experience. This was only the third time with a sitter and second boarding my Whiskey dog overnight; but never have I felt as content as when he was with Judy, her wonderful family & beautiful home. Was able to completely enjoy my vacation knowing he was cared for as one of her own. I really can’t thank her enough for what that contentment was worth to me. To top it off she’s so nice!! Had pushed the date forward a day at the last minute, she was totally understanding and went with the flow. Just thank you!!!! I know Whiskey dog misses his new friends already =^_^=”
“Lyanne took amazing care of my dog Milo which isn’t an easy thing to do. He is a chihuahua who suffers from anxiety. She was very patient with him and made him comfortable. She also sent lots of pics and video. Would definitely work with her again.”
“Maryline was excellent. She really treated Ariel as one of her own. Ariel fell in love with her and her family and felt like home. She kept us continually updated with photos twice a day. I would definitely use her again. I would highly recommend her.”

Judy and Steven took great care of Sandy for us. They sent multiple pics and vids of her playing and having a grand 'ol time there. It really helps put your mind at ease and we were very grateful to get those while we were away. They were a pleasure to deal with. They are both great communicators up to and during Sandy's stay with them. That will definitely be our go to folks when we need a place for Sandy to stay. Thank you very much much, Judy and Steven and Ginger!
Matthew was a great dog sitter. He was friendly and accommodating. My airplane coming home ran very late and at the last minute, Matthew agreed to keep my dog for an extra night. He sent multiple pictures everyday and took my dog on long walks with his dogs. I couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter or pet sitting experience.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Spackenkill 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 Spackenkill.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Spackenkill 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.
