“Polina is a nice intelligent person. I highly recommend her. I left my puppy for 9 nights and Polina kept in touch all the time about how my puppy is and what my puppy is doing. She really takes good care of my puppy, by walking him every 3 hours and feeding him as I asked her to. When I came to pick the puppy up, I found that the puppy was very happy, vitally joyful, and very active.”
“I have found my go to sitter in Mary K! This was our 2nd time with her, she is a great match for both me and my dogs. Very loving with them, and very communicative with me. We can't wait to come back!”
“This was the 2nd time we booked with Rachel and couldn’t be happier! Based on the pictures she shared I know Tucker is with a family that adores him and he loves the attention!”
“This is our dogs second visit to Dan and Teresa’s. They are very communicative and accommodating to what our dogs need. Our dogs were very happy and welcomed as if they were a part of the family. We have been extremely satisfied and will continue to drive a little farther to have our dogs be taken care of by Dan and Teresa.”
“Christine & Matthew were great! Easy to book with and sent pictures of our girl enjoying her time with their kid! Bonnie left happy and it was a relief not having to worry about her on our quick trip.”
“Literally the best sitter we’ve ever had! I was SO nervous to leave my bestie, but Donna made me feel comfortable from the start. She took care of our girl like she was her own and communicated very frequently. Georgia came home happy and exhausted!”
“Roscoe is a rescue dog that we adopted in May this year. We were very concerned to be leaving for a vacation just 2 months later. He is such a great dog & we didn't want for him to think we were abandoning him. As soon as we met Sherri we were sure we had an answer to our prayers. We could not have found a better place for Roscoe to be. He had a wonderful week at Sherri's. We received many updates & pictures on how he was doing & never for a minute worried about him because it was obvious how much fun he was having. We enjoyed our vacation guilt free because we knew Roscoe was getting as much love & attention as we give him. Our only concern was that he might not want to come home because he had so much fun with Sherri's fur babies. ? We will be back Sherri!”
“Thank youuuu for taking such good care of our sweet Kenya!!! Thank you for all the love you gave to her, the walks and games, the photos and detailed updates. We could tell she had a blast the whole time she was with you guys 🥹💕”
“Booked last minute and was very accommodating. I needed a day sitter for my 2 labs and received pictures/ updates thought the day. My dogs had a great day and were well cared for. Would definitely recommend and book again in the future.”
“We are so grateful to have found Staci. She saved us by accepting our request two days before we were meant to leave on vacation. We have a 9 year old English bulldog and she took such wonderful care of her! She provided pick up and drop off services, sent us daily photos and updates, was prompt responding to our messages and punctual! To top it off she is so lovely, very warm, thoughtful and caring. Our Zoe even followed her back to her car to leave with her at drop off. We are so pleased with Staci’s services and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who would care for their pets as if they were their own. Thank you again Staci, you are truly wonderful! 🌟”
About: Hi Neighbors, I am a Natural World Enthusiast looking to provide support to pets and their owners in the community. My heart is geared towards animals. I have decades worth of experience caring for dogs, cats and other small pets, from my own to friends and clients in the professional setting. My goal is to provide a sense of physical, mental, and emotional well being for your pet. I am here to help fill in the gaps in your busy schedules and be there. So whether your pal needs a hike, walk around the neighborhood, a feeding, medication dose (dogs and cats) or just a visit, I have your back. We all need movement, attention and praise, pets included. I use positive reinforcement as training method, for all pets at every stage. So whether you have a puppy with some aggression issues, a husky that needs a run, a diabetic cat, fish to be fed and admired, or an stinky old man dog that just needs to be sung to and told he's a good boy I am here to serve. I have two cats personally, they run the household and tell me what to do. They eat twice a day, get their boxes cleaned daily, and petted and played when they decide. Monday- Thursday I am available for pet visits from 10:30-2:30 and again from 5-9 pm Fridays - I am available from 10:30-1:00 for visits Weekends-vary During daycare hours I will always be in the home with your pet unless we are going on an outing together. Play, snacks, walks, songs, and naps will be provided daily. I do have two cats, who will probably stay out of the way, but cat friendly creatures are always preferred.
“The girls had a great time. Ashley sent pictures daily. She let me see the yard and areas where the girls would be to make me feel better as my little one is an escape artist. Ashley was great at communicating. I will definitely use her again.”
“Ginnie and I communicated almost every day about how the dogs were doing. When I arrived to pick them up, they appeared very calm and well cared for. I would definitely recommend Ginnie.”
“Definitely a 10/10 rating for Amanda. We had her taking care of our girls for a day, she did it so great and professional and she also provides pink-up & drop-off services. We will book with her again next time!”
“Wow! I left my 6 month puppy with Jaclyn and he was FAR from angelic. She was patient and even gave him multiple baths when he ate a bottle off the counter and got an upset stomach. I highly recommend!”
“Watched our boy for about 4 days and did a great job of taking care of him while giving us frequent updates. She even helped train him off leash while we were gone. Highly recommend!”
“Kara was wonderful and outgoing and did a wonderful job taking care of my 2 dogs for labor day weekend. Especially my older guy (12) who was unexpectedly diagnosed with congestive heart failure about a week before our stay. I was worried she wouldnt want to care for them after that news, but she took it all in stride. Getting him to take his heart meds was difficult to say the least...It appears Kara found a trick he fell for and didn't have trouble getting him to take them, which I still haven't mastered...this took a huge worry and axiety off my chest & mind and allowed me to enjoy the weekend with my oldest friends. The dogs seemed to really enjoy romping around her fenced in yard so t hat waz an added bonus. Thanks Kara for taking good care of my boys!”
“Moe had a good time with Jennifer and her family. She sent pictures daily to let us see how well he was settled in. Jennifer responded quickly to correspondence and was very friendly and nice to deal with.”
“Our dog Moose was really happy and had a great stay for 3 days. Kristin was in touch the whole time and made everything smooth and easy for pick-up and drop-off. Excellent experience. Highly Recommended!”

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
98% of sitters in Van Buren can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Van Buren 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 Van Buren.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Van Buren. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Van Buren 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
