“Jocelyn is a wonderful dog sitter! She shared pictures and videos of our dog every day we were away. She is very responsive to texts. We would definitely leave our dog with her again when we are away 😊”
“Mike was absolutely wonderful\! He picked up Judge right on time and delivered him safely and on schedule\. He was incredibly caring and attentive, taking Judge for walks and making sure he was comfortable and well cared for throughout the entire trip\. Judge is a big boy—about five times the size of most dogs—and he slobbers quite a bit\! Despite that, Mike made him feel completely comfortable, safe, and loved\. I truly appreciate the exceptional care Mike gave Judge\. I highly recommend him to any dog owner looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable\. Thank you, Mike\!”
“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.”
“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.”
“I trust Irene and ken with my pup, Reggie, entirely. We have used them many times, weekly recently, and even go far out of our way to use them (they're about 40 minutes from our house but close to work). Their whole family treats Reggie great. We're so happy to have found them and I recommend them to many colleagues and friends.”
“Jessica and her husband were clearly so patient and understanding about sitting for a senior dog. Salto came back happy and excited! They sent regular photos and updates. I would absolutely have Salto stay with them again if we are in the area.”
“I had such a wonderful experience with my first-time dog sitter Kiara! 🐾❤️ I immediately knew she was the one I wanted to care for my twin boys, and she did an amazing job taking care of them for 5 days. I would usually text her to check in, and she was always quick to respond with updates and photos of the boys. It was so reassuring to know they were in good hands. The twins seemed to really like her and gradually became comfortable with her, which made me so happy! I would absolutely rebook with her again, if she’ll have us back! 😊 Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my fur babies. I truly appreciate you, and I’m sending a little tip as a token of my appreciation. Highly recommend! ❤️🐶”
“Priscilla was fantastic. Our dog, Scotty, looked very comfortable in all the pictures. She sent us pictures daily and kept us informed. We were very happy with Priscilla”
“Elizaveta did a fantastic job watching our Boston Terrier for almost 3 weeks. Our little guy is often afraid of new people and being away from our family, but with her he was super comfortable right away - I think her dog helped with the process. Definitely recommend and would use again.”
“Stephanie was fantastic! Super easy to work with and was very communicative. She was kind enough to bathe our dog sunny after they went outside and had some tics. Sunny seemed to have a very good time and loved Stephanie 😊”
“We couldn't ask for a better dog sitter! Jax is treated like part of the family every time he stays, and it gives us complete peace of mind whenever we're away. We never have to worry because we know he's in the best hands. The biggest sign of all is how excited and happy he is every time we drop him off. We highly recommend Kevin and he wonderful family to anyone looking for someone who will truly love and care for their dog!”
“Soni seemed very attentive and hands-on, providing Beau with lots of outdoor and play time. She also sent me many photos and videos throughout each day, so I always felt in the loop with how he was doing. Overall Beau looked like he had a fantastic time and I would definitely trust Soni to watch him again in the future!”
“What a great experience. I love getting updates, and being reassured that my pup is having a good time and also getting what he needs. Valerie is conscientious, for example, she walked my dog before I came to make sure that he had his needs met before a long drive with me. Got an along well with her dog, in a family setting with a backyard — really appreciate her care.”
“Riti was amazing with Maggie! Riti's dog Sky is adorable and very friendly. We loved hearing about Maggie and Sky's adventures. They became quick buddies. Riti sent lots of a pics and was always quick to respond to any texts. Maggie came home happy and looking great. Thanks Riti!”
“Tammy watched Oakley and Tucker on our Wedding day and totally put us at ease. Oakley and Tucker were well taken care of and were very reluctant to leave! Tammy was responsive, welcoming, and always available to talk and/or meet. We will most definitely use Tammy again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sparkill
We were very nervous about leaving our 3 year old mini-Golden, Cane, for the first time ever for such an extended period of time, however, Matt and Christianna made us feel very comfortable when we met them. While on vacation we received numerous photos and for a while we wondered if Cane would want to come home. It was obvious that he was having a great time and was being treated like he was a member of their family. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants their dog to be loved and cared for while you are away.
Sunny was absolutely wonderful! She is incredibly sweet, kind, and always has such a positive attitude. Communication was excellent from start to finish—she responded quickly to every message and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was also very thoughtful and accommodating when my plans changed, and I truly appreciated her flexibility and understanding. Everything went smoothly, and I had zero issues throughout the entire booking. I could tell she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Sunny again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Joanne goes above and beyond for boarding! We did a meet and greet beforehand, she helped communicate what to expect when leaving our pup for the first time and communicated a lot while we were gone which helped calm our nerves. Marshall was in great hands and couldn’t have asked for a better person to leave him with. We would highly 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.
94% of sitters in Sparkill 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 Sparkill 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 Sparkill.
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 Sparkill. On Rover:
- 85% 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 Sparkill 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.
