“Outstanding service. Jeff was very communicative and accommodating for us, and clearly took great care of our pooch. They provided very regular updates with photos and status reports. The property has a well-sized fenced-in outdoor space, and generous indoor pet-friendly zones. It was clear that Jeff took care in ensuring that each dog had the space and safety they required. And our dog came back happy, healthy, and cleaned up.”
“We are so grateful for the amazing care you gave Cloud while we were away! You went above and beyond—keeping us updated the whole time and sending the sweetest pictures that truly put our mind at ease. It was clear he was in great hands. Til next time!”
“Brittany was wonderful with Cody. He is not used to be separated from us so we knew that he would be a challenge. I am happy with the treatment that Cody received and if the occasion occurs we will book with Brittany again.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. Mildred and her family treated my dog as one of their own for the few days that he was there and when I picked him up, I felt like I was part of the family as well. I got photos regularly and I knew that everything went perfect. I will 100% book again. I can tell that my dog made new friends so even if I don't need to board him overnight again, I know that I can drop him off to hang out with his new friends. I prefer this option over boarding/daycare at a facility where your pets may not get the same level of attention and care. 10/10 Recommend!”
“Stephen is a super care taker, for sure. Great and timely communications, friendly and very accommodating for a last minute request. Made the whole experience of looking after my Gracie seamless and easy.”
“Donna was great. She treated my dog like he was her own. I felt extremely confident that Guinness was being very well taken care of. Guinness came home very happy but tired from all the fun he had playing with Donna's dogs. I will definitely use Donna and her services again. I'm very happy. I found her thank you so much.”
“Matthew and his family are excellent dog caregivers! They have a very large fenced yard for the dogs to play. They are very attentive and sent many photos! I have an older newly adopted dog, they were so sweet and gentle with her. I highly recommend them!!!”
“My dogs always enjoy going to Maria’s house. It’s not a kennel but a house where my dogs get the same love and affection as at home. Been there three times and will use Maria again for our next trip”
“I was so lucky to have found Volha! She is super sweet and has a great understand of dogs. Her and her family welcomed my large dog into their home as if it were there own family pet. She was quick to ask me about his routine and sent me pictures of my dog and let me know how he was doing - he looked extremely happy! I love that she offers pickup and drop offs it’s such a bonus. Will definitely be rebooking when I need a sitter again.”
“Absolute peace of mind through the entire experience. This was only the third time with a sitter and second boarding my Whiskey dog overnight; but never have I felt as content as when he was with Judy, her wonderful family & beautiful home. Was able to completely enjoy my vacation knowing he was cared for as one of her own. I really can’t thank her enough for what that contentment was worth to me. To top it off she’s so nice!! Had pushed the date forward a day at the last minute, she was totally understanding and went with the flow. Just thank you!!!! I know Whiskey dog misses his new friends already =^_^=”
“Loretta was very responsive. A great communicator. She managed the crazy hot temperatures and other dogs with professionalism and competence. I feel confident in her ability to manage any issues that might come up since we have have a high energy boarder who is very much still a pup.”
“My two dogs loved their visit with Cynthia and Eli and their dog Max.They were very gracious hosts, kind and attentive, kept me informed, and shared photos. True dog lovers. I was able to relax and enjoy my visit with family knowing my "kids" were in good hands.Highly recommended. I also feel fortunate to have met two very good people, and do intend to remain in touch. Dawn D.”
“Great stay with Annette! We enjoyed all of the daily pictures and check - ins. Bella the pug had a great stay and was happy as well. Won't hesitate to use Annette again and highly recommend.”
About: I just got out of the Army after 8 years and had my best friend with me the whole way, a German Shepard named Mac. Sadly he passed about a year ago and I would love to have a new companion but I'm going back to school in the fall and need to focus on that. However, in the mean time I have the whole summer free to care for other's dogs. I live in a house with a large, fenced in yard and all the free time in the world. I'd love to have a dog to play with a d go on walks with. I currently have no obligations until September so I can devote 100% of my time and energy to your pup. Their care will be my full-time job. I have a large, fenced in yard and no other pets or children. I live on a large street perfect for walks and near the rail trail too.
“Stephanie took amazing care of my two older pups. Her home was welcoming, and her pets had a blast with their new playmates while we were out of town, Stephanie provided consistent updates and photos, we were able to relax and enjoy our getaway knowing they were in good hands. I will definitely be returning!”

“It was such a great decision to have Gladys and Liani take care of our cats! They proved to be extremely responsive, reliable, and punctual. When there was a car accident along the way, Gladys even checked in to let us know they would be a few minutes late. What really made Gladys and Liani stand apart from other sitters was their enthusiasm. It didn't seem like taking care of pets is just a job -- it seems that they genuinely love animals. Separately, while others made the initial scheduling process overly complicated, it was really easy to arrange everything with Gladys. Gladys and Liani earned our highest recommendation!”
“Needed someone for a last-minute drop in for the next day and Margaret willingly accepted. She was timely and send photos while there. Will definitely contact her again.”
“Barbara was very kind and sweet to my Daisy. She even bought her a new toy and played with her and send pictures everyday. My house was clean and her litter box was clean she was very well taken care of and I recommend her highly!”
About: Hi my name is Cory! I love dogs and they seem to know it right away. I have been around dogs since I was 4 years old. I have owned 2 akitas and an English bulldog . My latest Akita Diablo passed away 5 years ago and I haven't gotten another dog since his passing so currently I have no dogs. I only have chinchillas and a hamster as of now. I have a lot of experience working with dogs and they seem to feel relaxed and comfortable when in my care, making this the perfect job for me. I know how to approach these animals in a way that is non-threatening to reduce their anxiety and to help them relax. I can help to maintain the routine they are used to, so they will not get anxious or feel so alone while their owners are away. I have extensive knowledge concerning the different breeds of dogs and I know how to take care of them properly. I understand that some breeds have special needs and that the age of the dog will play a major role in how to take care of them. You can depend on me to provide excellent service and to take great care of your dog/dogs. I know what questions to ask to make sure I understand their specific needs. I will be full time dedicated to your furry child, providing walks and play time as much as needed! There is nothing I wouldn't do to make your dog feel comfortable and keep their schedule to your liking. Please provide a list with your dog's habits so I can make sure they feel at home. Don't hesitate to contact me, I am very flexible with my time, and I will love and care for your dog as my own. I'm currently off from work during the summer and during the school year I only work part time at an elementary school down the road from me (2 1/2 hrs) , So I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I will do anything to make your pup feel comfortable and at home away from home during his stay with me. I love detailed instructions so please feel free to let me know everything about your pet! I have a fenced in yard and 2 children who are huge dog lovers who would love to keep your dog(s) busy and keep them company!
“Donna took such great care of my two kitties, taking time to play and brush them. I felt confident that they were in safe hands while I was away - thank you Donna!”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life. Much of my experience is with dogs and horses. I have taken care of all age ranges starting with puppies and foals to senior animals. I also have experience with cats, goats, pigs, and chickens having grown up in the country. I was an active 4H member and completed their Veterinary Science courses at Cornell, so I feel comfortable giving medications and any wound care your pet may require. I am a Library Director in the Hudson Valley. I set my own schedule so my hours to provide pet services are flexible. I can work with the client to provide what their pets need. I am a responsible professional who owns their own home. I will treat your pets and home like my own and understand the importance of having a reliable, responsible pet sitter.

“Stefanie is wonderful. She's a smart, reliable, respectful, and easygoing person. She is trustworthy, gentle and loving with our slightly skittish cats, and made real friends with them. Stefanie was so accommodating, sent us lots of updates and photos and truly set our minds at ease. We will ask her to kitty sit again without hesitation! If you want to relax on your getaway, hire her!!! She's a true gem!!”
“I was in California for 5 days, far away from my sweet cat. I did not worry about her at all though, because Jenna showed up on time, fed my kitty, and made sure she had water and a clean litter box. She sent me lots of photos and a video every day so I knew she was being well cared for. It was obvious from the photos that Emmie loved Jenna’s visits. When we arrived home, Emmie was calm and happy. I would definitely hire Jenna again to care for my cat when I am away.”
“This was the first time we used Rover and we had such a great experience with Megan! She was so patient with our anxious kitty and everything went perfect. We will definitely ask her to sit for us again in the future!”
“Stephen is amazing! He’s well-versed with large breeds, and we were so happy to find someone experienced who Bowser absolutely loves walking with. He’s always punctual, and after just two walks, Bowser is already so excited to see him! It’s hard to find someone you can truly trust with your dog, and Stephen is definitely that person. Highly recommend!”
About: I adore cats & kittens! I’ve been around many w/ all types of personalities! I have experience w/ medication administration, cleaning of a litter box, and feeding. I’d love to care for your kitty! 🐈⬛
“Nichole was amazing! We’ve had a several drop-ins with her to feed/check on our 4 year old calico cat. She always follows instructions perfectly and is very responsible. Our cat is usually shy around strangers, but has come out a few times for Nichole. She was so nice to snap a few pics for us. I highly recommend Nichole for any of your pet care needs!”
“Natalie is the best! She is kind, on-time, and sent photos throughout the entire process. I felt confident leaving my pets & home in Natalie's care. Will definitely book her for my next vacation, and you should too!”
About: As a college student who truly loves animals, I bring a calm, patient, and attentive approach to caring for cats. I understand that cats can have very different personalities, so I always take the time to make them feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I have experience with daily care routines such as feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and giving lots of attention (or space, depending on the cat’s preference). What sets me apart is my ability to read animal behavior and adjust my care to each cat’s needs. I’m comfortable caring for both playful kittens and more independent or senior cats who may need a gentler approach. I am also very reliable and detail-oriented, ensuring routines are followed exactly as instructed. I will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your cat is well cared for while you’re away. I have 3 cats of my own as well.

“Excellent care and attentiveness. My dog was comfortable right away, during a rough week of meeting lots of new people and lots of change. But my dog loves Matthew’s son, which is the secret sauce 🤣”
“My dog loves to go to Stephen’s for doggie daycare and comes home tired from her day there. I feel comfortable having her there and I will be using Stephen again to watch my pup.”
About: I've loved caring for dogs since I was young and have experience looking after pets for family, friends, and neighbors. Caring for my own dog through a diagnosis of kidney failure gave me firsthand experience with senior pet care, including administering medication, monitoring health, and providing the extra patience and attention older dogs need. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I strive to provide loving, reliable care so owners can feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. I'm a recent college graduate currently searching for a full-time position, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide your pets with the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I'm available on both weekdays and weekends and am committed to making sure every pup feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. My home is dog-friendly and designed to help your pup feel comfortable and at ease. Dogs are welcome on the couches and beds, just like they're part of the family! I also live near several walking paths and scenic trails, so your dog will enjoy plenty of exercise, enrichment, and outdoor adventures during their stay.

We also have a built in pool that we allow to swim in if owner is on board with that. All play activities are supervised at all times. Dogs are never left outside without myself or husband being present. All dogs that stay at least 7 days get a complimentary bath. We have always had dogs in our life. In addition to the rates. If your dog is picked up by noon the next day there will be no charge. Half day charge will be applied after that until 6:30 PM. After 6:30 PM next night charge will apply. Dogs can be dropped off between 8am-8pm.
“Alison and Jason are the best! Meeko gets so much attention and excercise while in their care and is always excited when we get to their door. They also put special care into his sting habits (he doesn’t always want to eat) and send lots of cute pics of him throughout the dayt. We are so glad to have them nearby.”
“This was my first experience using Rover. I needed to find a last minute sitter for my pup while traveling and Mario came through. He was responsive and a good communicator and I could tell my dog would be comfortable with him the moment he answered the door due to his kind and happy energy. Definitely would recommend Mario as a pet sitter.”

“Wanda welcomes my pups warmly each time. They really enjoy all the play time including with her super sweet pup. No matter how much energy they come with she always tires them out. She has made them feel comfortable. They anxiously jump out of the car to greet her each time. We are really happy and will continue to use Wanda.”
“Today was Bernie’s first time with Nayeli, and I was honestly pretty anxious about leaving him with someone new. He’s such a huge part of my life, and dropping him off at someone else’s home made me nervous. But from the moment we met Nayeli, I felt completely reassured. She is kind, warm, and professional, creating an environment where dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments feel safe, seen, and cared for. Nayeli is a true dog whisperer who intuitively understands each dog's needs and integrates them into a peaceful, balanced pack. She took the time to get to know Bernie and ensured he was comfortable, happy, and having a great experience. Throughout the day, she sent the most beautiful photos of Bernie playing and relaxing, giving me much peace of mind. When I picked him up, he was calm and content and clearly had a wonderful time. I’m so grateful we found Nayeli and truly hope my schedule eases up so I can bring Bernie back to her again soon. She made what felt like a big leap of trust feel entirely natural. I could not recommend her more!”
“Krystal was so kind and accommodating and took great care of my puppy Eva, with a great mix of play and relaxation time. Eva enjoyed her hike and lounging time and looks forward to staying with Krystal again.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was about 10 years old. I currently volunteer at our local animal shelter and have a dog of my own I rescued in college. I also rescued a cat when I was a bit younger and working in the foster system with cats. I genuinely love pets so much and have experience with older pets, administering medication, puppies, and even aggressive dogs. I’m currently working full-time for the leasing office at the property I live at. I love my job because my own furry companion comes to work with me everyday. I have completely free time on weekends to care for your furry friends and am free most weekday afternoons and can make windows of time throughout the week. My dog and I live in an apartment building and he was crate trained when he was a puppy. I would walk your dog using whatever harness/leash you prefer making sure their paws are safe and are well taken care of. I can give them enrichment time from doing training, playing with toys, or running around outside if there is a place they can do so safely.
“Kimmie is so sweet, and she's a wonderful, calm presence around my dog! He had a great time at her house. We can't wait to be her regular client. She's extremely communicative, welcoming, and listened to all of our needs. Thanks Kimmie!”
“Maryline is amazing! It was my first time leaving my puppy all day, and she made it way easier than i thought. She is so sweet and caring and my pup felt comfortable right away. She sent so many pictures that made me feel as ease and her you could tell my puppy loved her sons, and they kept him playing and busy which tuckered him out. Highly recommend her for any of your fur babies needs. I know that she is now my #1 go to person for my little Theo!”
“I contacted Loretta last minute asking if she could watch my dog Basil. She responded quickly and was able to accommodate an all day dog sit. Loretta sent me lots of pictures and updates of Basil and her sweet dog Paprika hanging out. I would highly recommend Loretta for your next dog sit!”

“Amanda was great with Ana, my high-energy rescue, and managed to tire her out during a long school day for me! Very caring and kind!

I would use her services again. Thanks Stefanie!”

His communication was outstanding — he consistently provided updates, photos, and detailed feedback after each walk. Despite some initial challenges during the first walk, he remained composed and committed to ensuring my dog’s comfort and safety.

“Outstanding service. Jeff was very communicative and accommodating for us, and clearly took great care of our pooch. They provided very regular updates with photos and status reports. The property has a well-sized fenced-in outdoor space, and generous indoor pet-friendly zones. It was clear that Jeff took care in ensuring that each dog had the space and safety they required. And our dog came back happy, healthy, and cleaned up.”
“Brittany was wonderful with Cody. He is not used to be separated from us so we knew that he would be a challenge. I am happy with the treatment that Cody received and if the occasion occurs we will book with Brittany again.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. Mildred and her family treated my dog as one of their own for the few days that he was there and when I picked him up, I felt like I was part of the family as well. I got photos regularly and I knew that everything went perfect. I will 100% book again. I can tell that my dog made new friends so even if I don't need to board him overnight again, I know that I can drop him off to hang out with his new friends. I prefer this option over boarding/daycare at a facility where your pets may not get the same level of attention and care. 10/10 Recommend!”
“Stephen is a super care taker, for sure. Great and timely communications, friendly and very accommodating for a last minute request. Made the whole experience of looking after my Gracie seamless and easy.”
“Matthew and his family are excellent dog caregivers! They have a very large fenced yard for the dogs to play. They are very attentive and sent many photos! I have an older newly adopted dog, they were so sweet and gentle with her. I highly recommend them!!!”
“I was so lucky to have found Volha! She is super sweet and has a great understand of dogs. Her and her family welcomed my large dog into their home as if it were there own family pet. She was quick to ask me about his routine and sent me pictures of my dog and let me know how he was doing - he looked extremely happy! I love that she offers pickup and drop offs it’s such a bonus. Will definitely be rebooking when I need a sitter again.”
“Absolute peace of mind through the entire experience. This was only the third time with a sitter and second boarding my Whiskey dog overnight; but never have I felt as content as when he was with Judy, her wonderful family & beautiful home. Was able to completely enjoy my vacation knowing he was cared for as one of her own. I really can’t thank her enough for what that contentment was worth to me. To top it off she’s so nice!! Had pushed the date forward a day at the last minute, she was totally understanding and went with the flow. Just thank you!!!! I know Whiskey dog misses his new friends already =^_^=”
“Loretta was very responsive. A great communicator. She managed the crazy hot temperatures and other dogs with professionalism and competence. I feel confident in her ability to manage any issues that might come up since we have have a high energy boarder who is very much still a pup.”
“My two dogs loved their visit with Cynthia and Eli and their dog Max.They were very gracious hosts, kind and attentive, kept me informed, and shared photos. True dog lovers. I was able to relax and enjoy my visit with family knowing my "kids" were in good hands.Highly recommended. I also feel fortunate to have met two very good people, and do intend to remain in touch.

About: I just got out of the Army after 8 years and had my best friend with me the whole way, a German Shepard named Mac. Sadly he passed about a year ago and I would love to have a new companion but I'm going back to school in the fall and need to focus on that. However, in the mean time I have the whole summer free to care for other's dogs. I live in a house with a large, fenced in yard and all the free time in the world. I'd love to have a dog to play with a d go on walks with. I currently have no obligations until September so I can devote 100% of my time and energy to your pup. Their care will be my full-time job. I have a large, fenced in yard and no other pets or children. I live on a large street perfect for walks and near the rail trail too.
“Gretchen took excellent care of my dog while I was away. He seemed very happy during his stay. I also received daily photos and updates about how he was doing. I'll definitely use Gretchen's services again.”
About: I've taken care of animals for what feels like my entire life. I have raised two gorgeous dachshunds and have two crazy hot dogs currently. Love both cats and dogs, and I enjoy taking the dogs for walks. I have taken care of both puppies and seniors, and both need lots of care. I take care of my friends pets when they are away, and groom my own dogs. I work full-time and am generally able to do walks or visits anytime on the weekends. I cannot block out specific times on this site, and leave things mostly as available, HOWEVER, I am free after 4pm on Monday’s and Tuesday’s. Wednesday thru Friday I am only free before 10:30am or after 7:30pm. So please keep that in mind when requesting services. Friends have either lent me keys or smart access to go in and care for their pets and plants. I will usually go in, play, walk and feed (or just walk and play depending on needs). I have taken care of their pets overnight while they're away and have stayed at their homes for extended vacations, if need be. My pets are friendly, playful and curious. They do well with both senior and puppies. All three of my pets are crate trained. The puppy is currently in the process of crate training now. I do not like to leave pets unattended for too long. Dogs that have not been socialized, are not cat friendly, or are aggressive may be problematic to board, as I do have pets in the home. I will work doggy dayplay and stays around any dog walks that are prearranged. Occasionally, I can do last minute appointments, but typically like to schedule out the week ahead. I take care of my two dogs daily, so adding another to the mix is typically no problem. I treat all pets like they are my own. I love animals and I will try to work with them as much as possible while ensuring everyone’s safety. I follow the owners requests when going into client homes and will ensure any requests or dietary concerns are addressed if they are dropped off.
“Amruta took excellent care of Happy. Happy is 3yr old, we have never left him alone. He has lot of separation anxiety. This is the first time I left Happy for boarding. I was very worried about how he would stay for 3 nights. Amruta went above and beyond to take care of Happy. She sent me constant updates. Happy became very comfortable and was playing well in no time. I could relax and enjoy my vacation knowing that he is in good hands. Happy also had a mini vacation and enjoyed time at Amruta place. We will definitely contact her for boarding happy again. I highly recommend Amruta and thank her for pampering my little pup.”
“Erika was the best. I am so happy I found her. i have been looking for a new dog sitter close to where I live to make it easier. Max seemed to fit right in and did well. He looked happy and content. There were a few other dogs there, but they seem to all have gotten along quite well. Very pleased and highly recommend her. I will be using Erika again in the near future.”
“Nayeli filled in at short notice to provide boarding and care for my senior shepherd/husky (shepsky). She took care of his food and medications and provided excellent communication and updates during the stay. He had a great visit with her.”
