“Melissa did a great job taking care of my precious dog. She sends up pictures and videos updates more than I expected. I highly recommend her and will book again.”
“Lieb and his family were friendly and a dog loving family. They kept me updated all day long with videos and pics. It felt as if I was not even away from my Daisy. Will definitely book with Lieb again.”
“Ken and Irene made me feel reassured that my furbaby would be in great hands while I was away. They cared for my dog like he was one of their own and sent pictures & updates to ease my mind. I'm very grateful.”
“I just got a new puppy so looking for someone to trust to watch her for my first vacation was so important! Kelly was one of the first people I had come across when I first downloaded Rover. Great reviews, so I thought I’d give this a try. She allowed my dog and I to meet before. She is very nice, professional, and sticks to your routine. My dog was socialized very well daily with dogs of all ages/sizes, played A LOT, and she looked so happy in all the pics and videos. Kelly has a great big fenced in yard they can run around all day. She kept me in the loop every day throughout the day. Highly recommend!”
“Molly did a great job watching my dog Scooby. She kept Scooby active with hikes and visits to the dog park, she regularly sent photos, and when I picked Scooby up he was in a good mood. I’m also very appreciative she accepted Scooby for a long multiple-week stay on short notice, after our original sitter fell through. Thanks Molly!”
“Rhinesca made my first dog sitting experience wonderful. She had excellent communication & sent pictures daily. My Kobe fell in love with her on the first visit. I would definitely recommend her & I attended to use her again.”
“Cheryl is amazing!!! My dog, who is usually wary of new people, feel in love with her right away. Cheryl was so great about sending me pics and videos, which made me feel like I didn’t have to worry at all about my doggie. I will definitely be using her again in the future and suggest you do as well!”
“Jenna was great with my pup! She was patient with my dog's anxiety over being somewhere new and checked in with pictures. Her dog, Kylie, is super sweet and docile. Pippa came home exhausted and calm, so I know she had a great time playing with Kylie and Alice while I was away. Thanks Jenna for taking such good care of her!”
“Demetra was amazing!! We loved their family and our pug was so happy! He had such a great time with them and they took such good care of him! I am looking forward to bringing him over again!”
“We had such a great experience with Kun and family! He is extremely responsive and accomodating. We needed a sitter last minute, and Kun was able to take our dog without any problems. We also appreciated the updates throughout the day. I felt at ease knowing that our dog was basically on his own vacation with Kun and family”
“Beata was wonderful!! I genuinely felt that she really cared for my dog while she was staying with Beata for 2 days. I got so many updates with pictures and videos ant it made me feel at ease. Thanks Beata!!”
“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”
“We had a very positive experience from start to finish, beginning with scheduling and completing the meet and greet, as well as the smooth drop-off and pick-up process. Lucy truly enjoyed her stay with Kimberly and Tom, and she came back happy and clearly well cared for. We will definitely return for our future boarding needs. Thank you for making the entire process so pleasant!”
“Maureen and her family were amazing! Mocha was well taken care of, we got daily updates and pictures, and she was so responsive to anything we'd needed! When I arrived to pick Mocha up, he jumped on me to say hi, and then immediately sprinted to the back of the house (not the front door) cause he'd had such a good time there!”
“Lola returned for her 2nd stay with Aeli. Again was a terrific experience from drop off to pick up. There is no doubt Lola enjoyed her stay and was very well taken care of. Thank you Aeli for caring for our Lola!!! Would definitely book another stay with Aeli.”
“This was Phoebe’s second stay with Kevin. He took great care of her, and I can tell she’s always happy to see him. Kevin was careful to keep to Phoebe’s schedule, which I appreciate!”
“Paola was great with Marshie. She provided photos and updates regularly. She's very responsive. We had last minute changes and she accommodated our requests and we're so thankful for that. Marshie looks well taken care of. I highly recommend Paola and will contact her in the future.”
“Lucy took excellent care of our 1 year-old golden doodle! She requires lots of activity which she got at the park daily. Lucy provided great daily updates including videos of their adventures and snaps of her enjoying the day at home playing with toys or just watching people go by out the window. We will definitely book again with her!”

Molly took such great care of Milo! She kept me updated with pictures throughout his stay, and he always looked so happy. She was also super accommodating and flexible with my last-minute request. I’m so happy to have found someone nearby who I feel comfortable leaving Milo with. I would absolutely book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 13,051 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Viola. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
94% of sitters in Viola 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 Viola 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 Viola.
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 Viola. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Viola 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.
