“Jasmine is such a dog lover and so caring. She looked after our Rocky for an entire week and treated him like he was one of her own. Sent us photos and updates while overseas can’t thank her enough for doing so. Will surely book her again as we finally found our dog watcher. Thanks Jadyn for everything”

“Cindy was great and really put my mind at ease when she looked after my dog, Roxi. We had never boarded her before and were nervous to leave her alone with someone she didn't know. Cindy first did a meet & greet beforehand to make sure Roxi would be comfortable around her & her pets. Then after I booked her, she sent me multiple pics and updates daily and assured me Roxi was doing fine which I so appreciated. I will definitely be using her next time I need a sitter! Great experience!”

“This was our second time boarding Billie with Sonia and her family, and we are so glad to have found someone local who takes such good care of Billie! Thank you to Sonia, Brian, and Vivian!”

“Kelly was absolutely amazing with my pups Joey and Jax! I could tell she took such great care of them and that they were extremely happy and comfortable there. They can't wait to come back!”

“Lyanne really helped us out. We needed a sitter for one night while we attended a wedding in the area. We received several photos and a video of our boy, and knew he was in good hands for the night.”

“This was our first time leaving Pete with Monica & Kelvin. I was assured he was being well cared for, and was updated with photos of him being snuggled and playing in the yard.”

“Caliber had the best caregivers in the world. I have so much respect for Siram and Rekha. Caliber is a fussy pet, they took the care to make sure he ate, take him for walks etc., They are Caliber forever caregiver as long as they are available.”

“Let me start by saying, Nina is amazing. From first contact on Rover, to me just picking up my pup, it was professional and seamless. Stayed in contact with me consistently and made me feel extremely comfortable. She was also very thorough and asking me any pertinent information about my dog that could be important. Now we can talk about the actual visit. She has an amazing yard fenced in with all the amenities a pet would ever need. Her personal interaction with my dog was as if it was her own. You can tell she loves what she does. The end result, I think my dog came home happier than when I left him. Lol. All kidding aside, I would recommend Nina to the entire Rover community. If you’re ever in the tri-state area, and you need a pet babysitter, look no further than Nina. Trust me you won’t be disappointed. I will definitely use them again. 👍👍👍”

“I was feeling anxious about leaving my furbabies with strangers but Karen & Richard agreed to meet with me and the babies right before my trip. They assured me they would take great care of them and made me feel very comfortable leaving them. We texted on a daily basis and they also sent me pics and videos every day. I think they spoiled them more than I do!?? I would definitely recommend Karen & Richard, they were terrific!”

“It was my first time boarding Leo and can’t be thankful enough to Alexis. She was super easygoing and reassuring that Leo was ok. I’ll certainly recommend Alexis! Her yard is great for dogs to run and play freely.”
“Jill was great to work with! She is very attentive and loving towards our dog, Rufus! Jill sent lots of photos and updates. Rufus had a great time during our meet and greet and during his stay with Jill! We highly recommend!”


“I absolutely ADORE Cathy! She was the a savior when I needed a sitter for my 2 Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing they were in her very capable hands. I will not hesitate to have her take care of my "boys" in the future, and I highly recommend her!”

“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”

“Loida was very attentive and patient with my dogs needs as she is a senior dog. She had no problem giving her all her meds and was very considerate of her needs. She sent me multiple pictures throughout her stay and made me very comfortable with her being there. I highly recommend Loida if you want someone loving, reliable, and professional to take care of your 4 legged loved one. I will definitely be using her again in the near future.”

“Mike is amazing. I needed to board my 10 1/2 year old beagle , Kobe on short notice. Within minutes , Mike responded to my request and he was flexible in his schedule . Throughout Kobe’s stay, I received numerous updates from Mike showing how well my fur baby was doing. I was fully at ease knowing my dog was in great hands. Mike is not only friendly but highly knowledgeable when it comes to caring for your pet. He took the time to fully understand my dog’s needs and temperament which in turn, helped Kobe to acclimate well to a different environment. I know I will always rely on Mike to care for Kobe.”

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 Sugar Loaf 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 Sugar Loaf.
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.
You and your Sugar Loaf 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.
