“Molly and Nikola were wonderful! We haven’t left our fur baby Josie with anyone in over 5 years and we’re very nervous but Molly and Nikola kept us up to date often and took Josie on fun adventures. When we picked her up nearly a week later she didn’t want to leave. Highly recommend!!”
About: I have taken care of a variety of pets for a majority of my life for friends/family. In addition to having experience with pet sitting, I also have one of my very own! I have grown up around all different kinds of pets throughout my whole life and always love having them around. I have a dachshund who is so friendly with all types of dogs/people and loves the extra company and I have two little girls who are also just as obsessed with pets as I am! I currently work full-time from home while also being a stay at home mom so I am typically always home so I can ensure your pet will never be lonely in this house! I plan on treating your pets as if they were my own and will do whatever is needed to make your little one feel comfortable and loved! 💕
“Debbie is the most amazing person and the care and attention our dogs get is simply wonderful! I never worry about our fur babies when they are in Debbie’s Care! Her and her husband treat them like family. Our dogs simply love them!!”
About: Since I was young, I've always lived in a home with dogs. My experience tending to my family's pets (and farm-horses, sheep, and chickens!) gave me necessary experience and dedication to responsibility to house-sit and check in on other family friends' furry family members. I live in a home in Baldwinsville with a medium size yard that would be perfect for a short vacation for your dog (or dogs!)! I have summers mostly off, so if you're planning a summer mini-getaway or need someone to check in on or stay with your pup while you're gone for a night (or two!), I'm more than happy to help! I have experience dealing with older dogs who may need a little extra help getting outside or may need medication, so I also feel that the calm cozy environment I could offer them may be beneficial.
“Candyse and her family took great care of our little dog and cat for a week. She was very responsive, shared pictures occasionally and provided meaningful updates. Her home was comfortable and both animals came home happy and healthy. We will certainly book again when we get the chance.”

We had just adopted our cat when we had to go out of town on short notice. We were worried she would be so confused and lonely, but the photos Zuhal sent of our cat happily snoozing or hanging out made us relieved. We are very thankful to Zuhal for making sure she was safe and comfortable in such a transitional time for her.
Jeanne was amazing! We needed to go out of town for the weekend and were nervous about leaving our dog with someone since we’ve only had her for about a month. Jeanne was so kind and asked us to have our dog meet her dog first so we could see if it was a good fit. This was reassuring to us, rather than folks who accepted right away. Jeanne kept us informed and sent updates throughout the weekend. We are definitely going to reach out again if we’re in need of a sitter
This was our second time leaving our Monchichi with Kelsey, and for a longer time. He truly loves being with her and all the activities he had during his 3 night stay! We love how she takes such good care of him and you can tell she really enjoys what she does. He came back home happy and we know he enjoyed his time with her. It’s also great that she sent us regular updates and pictures and videos of him. We will definitely only have Kelsey watch him and we highly recommend her high level of service!
I’m terrible with leaving a review, today I want to take the time out my busy schedule to say how much I absolutely love you all for caring for my fur baby you’ve done such a great job over these few years, and it’s much appreciated. I never worry when my Lola is in your hands under your care. Thank you so much! She loves you all as well. 💕😁
Julie was absolutely wonderful with our golden retriever Toby! She was also very patient with us as we needed a sitter last minute and was flexible with us on dates. She went above and beyond for us and Toby while we were away, and we are so grateful. Would recommend Julie in a heartbeat and will certainly book again. Thanks Julie!!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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 .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
