“Victoria was super attentive and sent tons of pictures of our cats while they stayed with her. They had a great time in her super cat friendly apartment and even discovered a new toy they love (just ordered it for them at home). Would definitely recommend Victoria and will be rebooking with her in the future if we need to board the cats again!”

About: I’ve taken care of many pets in my life as I used to live on a farm growing up. I treat them all as if they’re my kids. I have a part time job as a nurse at a nursing home and I have two children in the home but over the ages of 15, other than that I have no young kids or other pets. I have a fenced yard with plenty of room to play! As well I have a park 2 mins from my home that I can take any pet I’m caring for.

About: Active, reliable, and always happy to get outside! My own dog is my companion, and I understand how much your pup means to your family. I offer flexible drop-in visits and walks. Whether it’s a quick midday break or coverage while you travel. You can count on regular updates and genuine care of your best friend 🐶 Avid traveler who is currently working on my own professional freelance projects while I am home for the summer. I have the flexibility to drop by or host based on your pups needs. I prioritize your dog’s safety above all else. During walks, I keep dogs on a secure leash and collar at all times - no exceptions. We stick to familiar neighborhood routes, and I’m constantly aware of traffic, other dogs, and any signs of stress or discomfort. Trust is built through communication 🤝 You’ll get photo and text updates during every visit so you can see exactly what your pup is up to. I respond quickly to messages and always follow your specific instructions about routes, bathroom breaks, and your dog’s individual needs. Before our first meeting, I’ll do a quick meet and greet to make sure we’re a good fit and to learn about your dog’s personality, quirks, and preferences. That way, nothing surprises either of us!

Kimberly was absolutely wonderful with Rocky! She took such great care of him for 21 days, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Rocky was in such good hands. She was caring, attentive, and made sure he was well taken care of the entire time. We truly appreciate everything she did and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter. Thank you, Kimberly, for taking such great care of our Rocky! ❤️🐶

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 406 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Watervliet. About 92% of Watervliet sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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 .

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
