“Kristen was so wonderful to our 14-year old Yorkie. She treated him as her own and he got to spend time running with her fur babies. Tripper was loving all the space to run and explore. We were traveling from out of town and I was so nervous to leave him but she was so reassuring, kind, considerate and sent pics all weekend which allowed us to enjoy watching our son play in Cooperstown knowing out Tripper was in the best hands. Highly recommend her and Mark.”
“Thank you very much to Stephanie and her family for taking good care of Ozzy and for keeping us updated with photos during his stay. He has come back to us happy and healthy!”
“Mikayla offered me peace of mind while on vacation knowing my senior girl was in good hands! Daily pics, great communication, and when I picked up my dog it was very clear she was comfortable and at ease with Mikayla. 10/10 recommend and will be using her in the future! Thank you!”
About: I grew up with all different types of animals my whole life. I have been a dog mom for 13 years. I am great at walking dogs who have aggression towards other dogs, I know how to find a calm route to take and distract them before conflict arises! I recently lost my 90 lb alapaha blue blood bulldog mix to a terminal illness and am looking forward to spending time with other people's dogs. I am a self employed artist, volunteer, and executive director of a free store that I physically staff on Saturdays, so I have a very flexible schedule. I will care for pets in your home with so much attentiveness and love! Just give me a set of instructions and I am happy to hang out :)
“Sue was the absolute best! We had a very unique situation where we really wanted our dog, Maui, to be a part of our wedding day and weren’t from the area so we were unsure how to find someone that could pick him up from the venue while we were getting married and board him overnight. Sue went above and beyond to pick him up and board him. Sue also kept us updated with how Maui was doing and he had a great time playing with her cockapoo Ninny! Highly recommend Sue to anyone in need of dog boarding!”
“I know my dog had a wonderful stay at Whitney’s because she was so relaxed when I picked her up. Great people, sweet dog and a peaceful environment for my pup, and I loved getting daily pictures! I highly recommend this household if you want to feel relaxed about leaving your dog!”
“Nicole was awesome. She has a very positive upbeat energy about her.. She came to my house to meet my dog Sadie before my booking started, and I immediately got a good vibe from her - and so did my dog. I felt reassured leaving Sadie with her knowing she is a vet tech. I will definitely be booking my dog’s care with her again.”
“Jenny was great! She was very easy to communicate with and flexible about the times and last minute booking. She sends a lot of pictures so you can see that your dog is having a nice trip. I would definitely recommend her!”
About: I have been around animals my entire life and have cared for my own pets since I was young. Over the years, I have owned and cared for many different types of animals, including Pit Bulls, Yorkshire Terriers, German Shepherds, Bulldogs, Shar-Peis, mixed-breed dogs, cats and kittens, turtles, rabbits, and chickens. Through this experience, I have learned how to understand different temperaments, provide daily care, maintain feeding schedules, exercise pets, and ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I am patient, responsible, and genuinely love animals. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I am committed to treating them with the same care and attention that I give my own pets. I currently have a very flexible schedule because I am on summer break from university. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and I can often accommodate different schedules, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I understand the importance of consistency in a pet's routine and will do my best to meet their specific needs. I live in a pet-friendly home with no other pets, which allows me to provide focused attention and a calm environment. My home has a living area, kitchen, bathroom, and multiple rooms, giving pets space to relax and feel comfortable. While there is not a fenced yard, there is plenty of outdoor space nearby for leashed walks, and a park is located close to my home for additional exercise and enrichment. When caring for pets, I prioritize safety, follow the owner's instructions carefully, maintain regular feeding and potty schedules, and make sure pets always feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Megan is an attentive, communicable host, with a spotless home and a beautiful large safe property! She reads directions closely and offers detailed check-ins when our dogs are away. She also has an excellent creek behind her house which I didn’t realize at first! Her dog is friendly and I would definitely book again with her”
“Nova and Frank had a blast at Sarah and Aaron's! We met for a meet and greet the week before, and it went great! They have a huge unfenced yard for our e-collar trained pups to run around in. We got plenty of photos of their fetch sessions. We would absolutely have them back there again.”

“I am so sorry this is so delayed! I had a lot of life catch up after our vacaction, which was completely relaxing becasue I had zero concerns with the well being of my dog because Melissa was AMAZING. She was super welcoming and understanding that it was our first time leaving our pup and using Rover! She is super professional and caring and took care of everything (she had a crate for us!) She has love for dogs and I would absolutely recommend her and have our pup stay again! The best.”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Stamford 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 Stamford.

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.

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.
