“Megan was wonderful. She kept me updated throughout Ace whole stay. She updated me everyday with pictures. I would definitely use her services again if need. Thanks again!!”
“Cansu watched our puppy Winston for a week while we were out of town and made him feel right at home! It was our first time leaving him and she made me feel very comfortable sending us videos and pictures daily! He got along well with their dogs and loves running around in their huge fenced in yard! Thank you again Cansu!”
“Mike is a great sitter. I feel at ease knowing my dog is well cared for while I’m away. Mike is very responsive! We look forward to our next booking in the near future!”
“Waldo had a great time staying with Jack. I felt confident leaving him. Jack was always responsive and sent regular updates to us. We plan to take another trip soon and Waldo will be in great hands.”
“Very pleasant experience. Maegan was very patient and accommodating with my hectic travel schedule. I really appreciated the short-term notice and great, fast communication. My dog seemed to have a great time at her place, and I'm glad we visited her.”
“Kathleen took excellent care of my chihuahua, Cody. Over the course of a month, I boarded him with her a few times each week, and I always felt confident he was in great hands. She was responsive, kind, and incredibly patient, not just with my (very energetic!) chihuahua 🙃, but with me as well. I’m so grateful for the care she provided and would highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
“Jeannie was a great sitter! She took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated with some fantastic photos. In fact, one of the pictures she took was so good that we’re going to use it on our Christmas card this year! I would definitely trust Jeannie with my dog again and will happily use her in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Natthinee is a fantastic Dog Sitter. This was my dog’s third stay with her. My dog requires several medications twice a day and she was very thorough and sent me pictures and updates of the medication she administered as well as several pictures throughout Lulu’s day. Lulu was curled up on her husband‘s lap numerous times so I know that they were treating her as one of their own! I knew she was in very good hands and completely trust her to take care of my baby who has a lot of needs!”
“Kassandra and Johnathan were great with our Puppy Leo! He is a big ball of energy and they were great with him and he loved playing with their dog Charlie. I would recommend to anyone in the area and will definitely bring Leo back when we need boarding again!”
“Jude was wonderful! Very caring and loving! Great backyard for our chocolate to run in! She sent updates and pics and videos daily which was great! I would give her 10 stars!”
“Taylor is a true animal lover which was evident the moment we met her. She kept our 5 month old morkie busy and provided rest as needed. Taylor kept us informed with pictures throughout the trip. Her flexibility made for a stress free drop off and pick up. I am thrilled we found her and know Finnegan will be happy to visit her again. All this and 10 minutes from our home! What a find!!!”
About: I just lost my 13.5 year old shepherd, I have been skilled in taking care of him and his old age and needs, I spent his whole life training him in German and English. I spend all day with dogs and know dog behavior very well, I have worked in boarding facility’s giving meds and food and walking dogs and learning their specific personalities. I groom dogs during the week when I’m done working I am free and certain days i have free time to care for others loved babies Care for your pets in your home where they are safe and happy, teach me how you and they like to be loved and cared for and I will always follow every direction given.
“Ginger took excellent care of Millie during our vacation. I was very nervous as this was her first time away from home. We were looking for someone who would love Millie as much as we do, Ginger is that perfect person! She is kind and loving and treated Millie like her own. We had a meet & greet with Ginger and Ranger (Ginger's sweet dog) prior to our boarding. This helped put my mind at ease that our pup would be well cared for. During the boarding Ginger provided me with daily updates and pictures. Millie was very happy during her stay and well cared for. I will definitely be using Ginger again in the future, she is just wonderful.”
“The best pet sitters we’ve had. It is very clear how much they love animals. We never have to worry about our boys while we are away. Reliable, trustworthy, and excellent communications!”
“Took great care of my pup! Was willing to accommodate his special needs. Received lots of updates and pictures. My pup had a great time and was well loved. Will be booking again in the future.”
“Tiffany was wonderful with our dog Wyatt. We could see how much he loved being at her home and she took excellent care of him. She was frequently communicating with us as how he was doing which we greatly appreciated. I think Wyatt really enjoyed the big fenced in back at her house. We will definitely be using her again. We highly recommend Tiffany!”
“Peg is great, very responsive to texts and gives you updates a couple times a day. I trusted her right away. She has a big fenced backyard for the dogs to run around and she threw the ball for mine until her arm hurt, Love that!! Toga came home after 5 days happy and exhausted so he’s giving 5 stars as well.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Vail Mills
We needed someone to watch our pups for a couple of days, and since it was our first time doing this, we were nervous. Megan put us at ease right away. She was flexible with our specific needs and sent us frequent updates, so we always knew how the dogs were doing. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pups. We'd definitely book her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring for their dogs.

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 Vail Mills 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 Vail Mills.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Vail Mills 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.
