“It was our first experience boarding a dog through rover and we couldn’t be happier. We wanted our pup to feel like she was on vacation too, and every indication is that she loved her time at Laura’s! Laura sent pictures and videos throughout the week so we would know what she was up to. Glad we found a place for Emily to stay where she won’t miss us too much!”

“Brittany is very sweet; my dog liked her right away. So did my husband and I! She is extremely accommodating and flexible. When we went to meet her she showed us her yard and took us inside to see her house and meet her dog. While we were away she sent daily photos which was wonderful. From them we could tell our dog was having fun. Brittany send home a very happy pup along with gifts of a new bandanna and a bag full of treats. In all ways she went the extra mile. We were very pleased with this dog sitting experience!”

“Superb! I felt totally at ease leaving Gabby to Margaret's care. I appreciated her desire to meet Gabby beforehand, and she gave reassuring updates during Gabby's stay. Gabby got a lot of good attention that was documented in photos and messages, and I returned to find her relaxed and calm. I will definitely bring her back to Margaret next time I need dog care.”

“Our son was getting married in upstate NY so we needed a sitter for our dog Kai while we were away. We have always left Kai with either family or friends, but since everyone we knew was attending the wedding I reached out to Laura. We set up a meet and greet -I knew from the first time I met her that she was a perfect match. She was warm and kind - obviously a dog lover - and she made a connection with our normally shy dog right away. She asked a lot of questions about Kai's habits - she wanted to make sure she followed his normal daily routine so that he would be comfortable in her home.. Her house is beautiful and she has a large, fenced in back yard that allowed Kai to run free in a safe environment. Laura took him for a 3 mile daily walk, and sent many pictures and updates the whole 6 days she had him. He became a part of her family❤️ I cannot say enough about how happy we were to have found her. She gave us peace of mind that Kai was well loved and cared for so we were able to enjoy the wedding without any worries. I would HIGHLY recommend Laura to anyone looking for a sitter!!”

“Our puppy received the most loving care from Erica & Thomas (and their kids!). We went away on vacation knowing he was in the best hands possible, allowing us to feel secure knowing he was happy and healthy. We received daily updates/pictures with any issues, which we deeply appreciated. We will continue to use them for care for our puppy in the future!”

“We’ve boarded with Nadjeska and family several times now and they’ve always been nothing but wonderful with our high energy GSD. Always with updates and photos throughout to put our minds at ease. Definitely highly recommend to all!”

“Carolina and her family opened their home to Godfrey for 5 nights. This was Godfrey's first time being away from me and he was in the best of hands. Carolina stuck to his routine and gave me plenty of updates. Godfrey is a very special dog and his personality was able to shine through with Carolina! I am so happy with the experience and would recommend her to anyone!!”

“Julius and family took good care of our dog. Julius is super-responsive and sent several cute pictures of the visit. It looked like everyone got along well and were very active. Our dog came home exhausted, which is a good thing. We also needed to adjust the end time a little bit, and Julius was very accommodating of the last minute change.”
“My Golden had a great stay with Connie and family. She sent photos, gave updates, and we met before at a dog park to make sure our dogs got along. He was well cared for, and even sent him home with a goodie bad with some treats. They are much more like professional caretakers and couldn’t recommend enough.”

“Jill was amazing! We met before our booking so we could make sure my dog would be comfortable and fit in at their home. She sent me pupdates throughout the weekend and did so many adventures with our dog. I'm so happy to have found her!”

“Our puppy had a great time staying at Brittany’s house for the day. I felt he was in good hands while we were gone for the day. We will definitely use her services again. Thank you Brittany!”

“Torie was great with our two morkies, one of which has PLE and has some intense dietary restrictions. She was very communicative and quick to respond during the stay! Thank you Torie!”

“Sherry has sat for my dog a couple of times in her home and walked my dog as well. She is very clearly a dog person. Sherry is very thorough with making sure she knows your dogs schedule and care needs and sends updates while you’re gone. I will definitely use Sherry again in the future!”

“We had a great experience! My dog Jager had a wonderful time staying at Ariel’s house. She has a great fenced in yard where dogs can safely play and explore. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her!”

“Cassandra did an amazing job caring for our 4 year old English bulldog for 8 days. Our bulldog is quite stubborn with several medical conditions and she administered all medications and went above and beyond so we can travel without him for the first time in 4 years. Cassandra sent us daily updates and was very quick to respond to us and helped put our minds at ease while away.”

“They did amazing with my semi rowdy Luna. I was updated everyday with lovely photos of her and her adventures! They accepted my last minute booking along with a meet and greet. It went as good as I could have expected plus more! I highly recommend and I will be booking in the future.”


“Maria did an AMAZING job caring for my senior dog. She managed to keep up with his feeding/meds schedule, and kept him safe, and loved. I definitely recommend her care, and will rebook her services whenever I need to. Thank you so much Maria. Gustav is all healthy and perky.:-)”

“I cannot say enough about Laura. We love our kitty, Dolly, and she in turn is very attached to us. We booked a last-minute vacation and learned that our kitty-sitter had moved out of the area. The minute Laura arrived for a meet and greet I knew I had found the perfect person to care for Dolly. She did everything we asked, and did it well, graciously accepted on-the-fly schedule changes, sent photos and warm, loving messages with each visit. She is absolutely wonderful. We've already asked her to plan for our next two trips.”


About: Cats are the best! I am personally a big cat person and have lived with, trained, and loved cats since I was a child. I have grown up with multiple cats, and currently have one of my own named Creature. I am a warm, detail oriented, dedicated, and responsible problem solver. I provide the exact energy a cat seeks and we always become instant best friends! I take pride in making sure every kitty has what they need (and plenty of pets)! Special needs and requests for care are welcome. I’m happy to clean a litter box, provide needed medication, or just give a good scratch behind the ears! Many friends, family members, and coworkers have hired me to take care of their furry loved one. I would absolutely love to meet and care for your cat! :)
About: I have over ten years watching dogs, cats, and indoor pigs. I used to sail on the East Coast and watch pets at different ports. I am high energy and can run your pets or relax them, your choice. I currently own a small dog, a mid size puppy, and a pet pig. I also have cared for dogs as large a 150 lbs, including Mastiffs. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I do this because I love pets, and love to see them and their owners happy. A happy dog make a happy house. And a happy house makes a happy family. Thank you for taking the time to read my info and hope to work with you soon. Smiles.

“Frances was fantastic with our two high-energy kitties. She immediately put us at ease and was super easy and nice to work with. She took great care of our home and pets. Trustworthy and friendly, she gave them lots of playtime and made sure everything was taken care of so we could enjoy our vacation.”

“Victoria is a delightful person and amazing animal whisperer. My cat went straight to V from the first visit, where as with most people and previous sitters he will ovoid and hide even people who have been to the house many times. On one occasion Victoria had to go the emergency room with her child and I could not believe that after being there for hours - she and her family came to our home around midnight to feed and play with our cat. If that’s not a strong recommendation I don’t know what is. Thanks Victoria for everything. We really value and appreciate you.”


“We are on vacation and needed someone to let our dog out. Troy was great and got along with one dog instantly took him for a nice walk and sent some pictures which my kids loved seeing !!”

About: I am well-versed in pet nutrition, exercise needs, and I am committed to providing the highest level of care to ensure the physical and emotional well-being of every animal in my care. I'm currently in law school, so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets throughout the week. I'm available for house sittings and drop in visits. I'm very experienced with dogs and cats. I spend a lot of time with them at home and on walks. I recognize that every pet has unique needs and preferences. I excel at tailoring my approach to meet the specific requirements of each animal, ensuring they are comfortable, happy, and safe.
About: I’ve been a pet and animal owner my entire life. We have 3 young kids who love to play and one energetic 4 year old dog who also loves to play, so your pet would get a lot of play time at this house! I have lots of availability this summer, so reach out to me for specifics. Once fall hits and I’m back at school, I’ll be available for weekends. We have one friendly dog to keep yours company. Our yard is not fenced in, but we take frequent walks throughout the day. Our dog sleeps upstairs in the bedroom with us, but we do have a crate available if needed.

“Shannon did a great job taking care of my cat while I was away. She kept him entertained and gave very attentive care to him. She was prompt and reliable the entire time. And my cat loved to have her around! Will definitely book her again!”


About: Cats have a special place in my heart. I’ve had several cats since I was a child and currently own my soul-cat. His ears and name (Enzo) are currently tattooed on my arm🤭 and he gives my soul life. I’d love to give your kitties so much love that they don’t even know you’re gone!

“Brianna is incredible! She comes every Saturday morning to help with our newly diabetic cat's insulin treatment. This requires some level of training to make sure everything is done correctly, and she has been really wonderful through that process. She already knows so much about administering medicine, and she is really easy to teach and talk through any nuance specific to our kitty. She cares for all kinds of animals and has such expertise, making us even more comfortable with her care. She is also more reliable than we could have ever imagined. Always promptly on time and always prioritizing our babies healthcare needs!”


“Shannon took great care of our fur babies while we were away. Litter box was cleared and furballs picked up! Kitties were very happy to have her visits and give pets! Would absolutely use her service again! Great communication 👍🏽”

“Oban seemed to enjoy her time with Stephen, lots of great photos and videos. Mystic will require more visits to make his decision. Ours is we will be booking Stephen again quite soon.”

“This was my German shepherd, Evie's, first daycare with Laura. Evie was a bit anxious at first but Laura got her to a calm state quickly and Evie enjoyed playing with her pug, Winston. Laura kept me updated and sent several pictures. Good experience overall and will be back”

“This was my first time using Rover.com. I had picked up my German shepherd, Evie, from a shelter in North Carolina last November. Based on her recorded condition when brought in as a stray 5 weeks before she had been through a rough period. She has fully recovered now and is in good health. My wife and I wanted to find someone to board her with where she would be happy when we're away. We identified a few possibilities at the Rover website and following a positive meet and greet with Nadjeska last week, had Evie spend the day with her yesterday. It went very well. Nadjeska sent us several texts with photos during the day updating us on Evie's stay. We were looking for a home where Evie could spend time with and play with other dogs and Evie made a new friend, Sparkles, Najeska's little dog. Nadjeska has a fenced yard which provides a safe place for them to run around in the fresh air. Evie seemed to enjoy the day, Nadjeska obviously loves dogs, and we will be repeat clients in the near future.”


“My puppy had a great time with Mary Jo and her family. She was amazing and accepted our last minute booking to save the day! She kept me posted on how he was doing too which was so nice. I wish I knew lots of people in the area so I could recommend her personally. I am so grateful to her and her family for taking such good care of my guy!!”

“Erica, Thomas and the kids were great with Lenny. When I went to pick him up, he looked happy and was definitely tired from a full day of fun. Erica was very flexible with drop off time, I had to drop Lenny off really early to leave for work, and I also had to book his stay last minute, and they were able to accommodate it. I received photos and updates from Lenny all day during his stay. Lenny will definitely stay with Erica and her family again.”

About: I've lived with and taken care of dogs since I was 11 years old. Starting off in apartments where they needed to be walked. I've had my own dogs for the past 16 years. From puppies to seniors on daily medications, I've taken care of it all with my own doggos. We recently lost our doggy siblings, Tegan and Sara in May and July 2022 at 15.5 years old. We currently have a 6 month old rescue named Oswald. I love all dogs! I do not breed discriminate! I live on 3/4 of an acre with a 5' chain link fence surrounding the back yard. I also work from home, so I'm always here. With your permission, I may even take your pups on adventures while in my care! We do have a cat, but she owns the 2nd floor of our house (2 spare bedrooms), so it will not affect your pups stay as we will stay on the first floor. I work from home 9-5:30 M-F. Your baby will get to go out whenever needed in my fenced yard and I will give them love in small breaks during my own work day. They will not spend their days in a crate as I am here to keep an eye on them. I have a fenced yard. I do have a very dog and person friendly pup of my own who will be happy to play with your pup, too, as his favorite place is the dog park. We have few stairs that need to be climbed, 1-3 off our deck (we have a few entrances on the deck) that can be adjusted by closing deck doors as needed for seniors.
About: I’ve had 8 dogs over the past 30 years, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs through every stage, from energetic puppies to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable with dogs with a wide range of personalities, routines, and care needs, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and senior care. I understand that every dog is different, and I’m happy to follow the routine that works best for yours. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved and give you peace of mind while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your dog(s) plenty of attention and keep their routine as consistent as possible. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home, staying in yours, stopping by for a visit, or taking them for a walk, I’ll do my best to follow the schedule they’re already comfortable with. I’m available for weekday and weekend care and can often accommodate morning, daytime, and evening needs. For boarding and house sitting, I’ll make sure we discuss your dog’s normal routine ahead of time — including meals, walks, potty breaks, medications, bedtime, and any special needs, so their days feel as familiar as possible while you’re away. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always come first. Before caring for a new dog, I like to learn as much as I can about their personality, routine, health needs, temperament, and any behaviors or situations I should be aware of. I’m also happy to do a meet-and-greet beforehand so both you and your dog can feel comfortable. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who may need a slower pace, medication, more frequent potty breaks, or extra attention. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your dog’s environment safe and secure, and never force an interaction or activity they aren’t comfortable with. When your dog is staying with me, I want them to feel like they’re at home, not at a kennel. I also know how reassuring it is to see that your dog is happy while you’re away. I’ll stay in touch with regular updates and photos, and I’ll always reach out if I have a question or notice anything unusual. My goal is simple: you should feel completely comfortable knowing your dog is safe, cared for, and getting plenty of attention.
“We’ve been looking for an alternative to commercial daycare because our dog used to come home completely exhausted. With Janelle, we picked him up happy and relaxed, and I know he’d been well cared for all day, which made such a difference! She was very communicative and friendly, and we’d happily book with her again.”

About: Over the last few years, caring for pets has turned into a full-time job that I absolutely love. I’ve opened up more availability so you can book trips without stress. Your pet will be safe, comfortable, and have the best experience while staying with me! There will always be one adult home—Ariel, Tom, or Toby. The three of us work together to care for your pet. Ariel will be your main point of contact. Please be considerate with drop-off and pick-up times. I plan my days around these schedules, so if you’re going to be early or late, please let me know in advance. I completely understand situations like flight delays or emergencies — those are never an issue. However, I’ve been seeing more people simply forgetting their scheduled times, and it makes planning very difficult. Thank you for respecting the schedule! I have a fully fenced yard and live just steps away from a dog park and hiking trails. Each dog gets plenty of exercise based on the owner’s preference. Your pup will enjoy lots of outside time—I’m a huge advocate for fresh air and daily activity!
“Jenna was great with our anxious and jumpy pup. She took him on walks, spent good time outdoors, sent regular updates, and had a great, calming demeanor with him. She was very flexible even when we came to her last minute. Definitely recommend!”

“Truc watched our Russell terrier Ozzie for the day when we were in the area on vacation. Ozzie left happy and tired, and had a great time with her lab Calvin. Truc was very responsive and easy to communicate with, took special care to ensure Ozzie adjusted well, and even took him on a special adventure in town. Would highly recommend. Thank you Truc!”

“The whole family was so sweet and loving to our princess Zina! Zina was so excited to see her the next day, tail wagged with excitement ❤️ Well definitely use Nes the next time we need help ?”

“Steve took great care of my dog, who was happy at the end of the day when I got him back. Steve was thoughtful and caring, and my pup really seemed to like him. I would highly recommend!”

“We were in town visiting from Virginia and needed to find someone to watch our baby Jax for a day. So glad we found Elisa! She was very responsive to our request and was able to accommodate our change in pick up time. I can tell her and her family treated Jax like one of their own because he adapted so quickly! And I can tell he had a lot of fun because he instantly went to sleep. We’ll definitely book Elisa again if we need another sitter when we’re back in town!”

“This was my first time ever leaving Ange. I was a little nervous, but everything went great over all. Carolina text me through out the day and made me feel so comfortable with me leaving Ange. I will definitely use Carolina in the near future.”

“Once again, Maggie came to my rescue last minute! I thought I had booked then three days before event checked only to find out I did not book. But then…Maggie answered the call with a resounding YES, I can care for Atticus that day! Atticus was thrilled and gave his thanks with love 🧡. Mega Maggie!! Filled with love for the pets she cares for. Thank you, thank you!!”

About: My first experience was 5 y.o when I was selected to help train Fidelco search and rescue dogs. From then on, my whole life has been surrounded by animals of all sorts. From going to UCONN for large animal science, to always being the designated pet sitter for friends and family, to now- still doing that, running my own hypoallergenic cattery & working a couple horse barns! I bring years of experience with all sizes, ages, behavioral issues, illnesses and providing medications. Safety is my #1, with an obvious close 2nd, their happiness! I currently work part time at 2 barns, a few days a week, and no longer than 4 hours a day. I also run a cattery at my home, so squeezing in a quick walk or even accepting a night over, on short notice, isn't usually an issue for me! I currently do not offer for other animals to stay at my house, due to having my cattery and my elderly dog, but I'm more than happy to stay at yours and care for your fur-baby!
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was born with my first Golden Retriever “Missy”. My family has had a wide variety of animals from dogs and cats, to hamsters and bunnies, all the way to horses. I am often called on by my fiends to pet sit as I am known as the friend with a surplus of pets. I currently have a small dog named Munchie with many different health problems such as anxiety and epilepsy which gives me experience in caring for dogs with specific needs. I also currently have a large dog who is a Shepard, Boxer mix named Leo who gives me experience in caring for large dogs and their active and rambunctious needs. Along with my two dogs I have four cats who give me experience in the joy of caring for cats. As a pet owner I know the struggle of finding a good and trustworthy pet sitter. That is why I want to be able to be that pet sitter that will allow you to enjoy your vacation or go to work with the peace of mind knowing your pet is being taken care of. I am currently a student at Marist College in Poughkeepsie. Due to my class schedule I have blocks of time in which I am not in class or doing homework that I would love to be able to fill with hanging out with dogs:) Due to the fact that I am a college student I do not have the home environment to be able to care for your dog at my house. But I will give them the love and attention they need during my drop-in visits with lots of pets, playtime, walks and treats!

“It was our first experience boarding a dog through rover and we couldn’t be happier. We wanted our pup to feel like she was on vacation too, and every indication is that she loved her time at Laura’s! Laura sent pictures and videos throughout the week so we would know what she was up to. Glad we found a place for Emily to stay where she won’t miss us too much!”

“Brittany is very sweet; my dog liked her right away. So did my husband and I! She is extremely accommodating and flexible. When we went to meet her she showed us her yard and took us inside to see her house and meet her dog. While we were away she sent daily photos which was wonderful. From them we could tell our dog was having fun. Brittany send home a very happy pup along with gifts of a new bandanna and a bag full of treats. In all ways she went the extra mile. We were very pleased with this dog sitting experience!”

“Superb! I felt totally at ease leaving Gabby to Margaret's care. I appreciated her desire to meet Gabby beforehand, and she gave reassuring updates during Gabby's stay. Gabby got a lot of good attention that was documented in photos and messages, and I returned to find her relaxed and calm. I will definitely bring her back to Margaret next time I need dog care.”

“Our puppy received the most loving care from Erica & Thomas (and their kids!). We went away on vacation knowing he was in the best hands possible, allowing us to feel secure knowing he was happy and healthy. We received daily updates/pictures with any issues, which we deeply appreciated. We will continue to use them for care for our puppy in the future!”

“We’ve boarded with Nadjeska and family several times now and they’ve always been nothing but wonderful with our high energy GSD. Always with updates and photos throughout to put our minds at ease. Definitely highly recommend to all!”

“Carolina and her family opened their home to Godfrey for 5 nights. This was Godfrey's first time being away from me and he was in the best of hands. Carolina stuck to his routine and gave me plenty of updates. Godfrey is a very special dog and his personality was able to shine through with Carolina! I am so happy with the experience and would recommend her to anyone!!”

“Julius and family took good care of our dog. Julius is super-responsive and sent several cute pictures of the visit. It looked like everyone got along well and were very active. Our dog came home exhausted, which is a good thing. We also needed to adjust the end time a little bit, and Julius was very accommodating of the last minute change.”
“My Golden had a great stay with Connie and family. She sent photos, gave updates, and we met before at a dog park to make sure our dogs got along. He was well cared for, and even sent him home with a goodie bad with some treats. They are much more like professional caretakers and couldn’t recommend enough.”

“Jill was amazing! We met before our booking so we could make sure my dog would be comfortable and fit in at their home. She sent me pupdates throughout the weekend and did so many adventures with our dog. I'm so happy to have found her!”

“Our puppy had a great time staying at Brittany’s house for the day. I felt he was in good hands while we were gone for the day. We will definitely use her services again. Thank you Brittany!”

“Torie was great with our two morkies, one of which has PLE and has some intense dietary restrictions. She was very communicative and quick to respond during the stay! Thank you Torie!”

“Sherry has sat for my dog a couple of times in her home and walked my dog as well. She is very clearly a dog person. Sherry is very thorough with making sure she knows your dogs schedule and care needs and sends updates while you’re gone. I will definitely use Sherry again in the future!”

“We had a great experience! My dog Jager had a wonderful time staying at Ariel’s house. She has a great fenced in yard where dogs can safely play and explore. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her!”

“Cassandra did an amazing job caring for our 4 year old English bulldog for 8 days. Our bulldog is quite stubborn with several medical conditions and she administered all medications and went above and beyond so we can travel without him for the first time in 4 years. Cassandra sent us daily updates and was very quick to respond to us and helped put our minds at ease while away.”

“They did amazing with my semi rowdy Luna. I was updated everyday with lovely photos of her and her adventures! They accepted my last minute booking along with a meet and greet. It went as good as I could have expected plus more! I highly recommend and I will be booking in the future.”


“Mary Jo and her family are fantastic!! And her son is adorable and loves dogs:) It was a last minute booking but Mary Jo was extremely accommodating in setting up a meet and greet and then hosting my dog in her home for 4 nights I could tell from her messages that Texas, my dog, felt right at home. He was spunky and ate all his dinners. I would highly recommend Mary Jo”

“Absolute peace of mind. Leaving older dogs can be stressful, but Elisa made it completely worry-free. She took incredible care of our two dogs and treated them like family. She paid close attention to their medications, supplements, meals and senior routine. We received daily updates and photos. We highly recommend Elisa and will absolutely book her again!”


“Kathryn & Jeremy were great! Their house was cozy and friendly. Our corgi loved playing with their kids and he was definitely tired when he got home. They were great at communication and we felt our dog was safe. Will book with them again!”


“Ricky did a great job , got my boys back healthy and happy . He provided updates with pics and was really responsive. Trust that Ricky will take care of your pet . Will definitely have him look after my boys again.”

“Janelle was amazing with our Jimmy, yet again! I feel so comfortable leaving him at her house with her sweet family. I know that I do not have to worry about him at all. It's a great feeling to have, as a dog owner.”
