“Ryley was wonderful with Raven. Raven goes to a lot of Rover sitters because I travel for work, and I don’t think Raven has ever come home this pooped out before ! Ryley was also very flexible with my wacky schedule, and sent a ton of photos. I’d definitely book with her again.”
“Darcy was wonderful and we felt very comfortable leaving our pup with her family. Our dog was well cared for and came home happy. We will highly recommend Darcy to friends and family who also need dog sitting services. Thank you Darcy!”
“Chelsea was amazing and I would highly recommend. She administered insulin shots for my dog and accommodated my dog’s special needs. Her family was very caring and loved having my dog over for the short stay.”
“Anna was fantastic! She messaged everyday with updates on how my pups were doing, along with pictures. My 2 dogs are vastly different ages and temperaments and Anna seemed to have no trouble making sure both were happy and comfortable. They got walks each day, even with the cold weather. We even needed to extend our pups stay with her on short notice and she was extremely helpful and accommodating. Then when we picked up our dogs, Anna gave us a couple new toys, several printed pictures of the pups during their stay, and little "report cards" of how they fared during their stay with comments. We would happily have Anna watch our dogs again any future times we needed.”
“We went away for about two weeks and it was our first time leaving our dogs with someone other than family. Tiffany gave us updates and pictures to ease our minds. Our dogs have different personalities and Tiffany was able to accommodate them both. We feel very comfortable having them stay with her again”
“Vera was wonderful with our dog! She has an amazing setup with a great backyard and lots of places to walk. She played with our dog so many times and gave her so much love and attention. So grateful to have found her!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little. Right now I am a professional dog bather at Petsmart and I’ve just always had a special place for dogs in my heart. I’m working part-time as a Professional dog bather so I don’t work every single day, probably only 3/4 days out of the week, so i’m pretty open to watch dogs. I have 2 dogs myself. I have a fenced area for them to run around in as I also live next to a big field that I can let them run around in as well. I always give my doggies treats and bones because they deserve all the love and cuddles.
About: Thank you for checking out my profile! I am happy to dog sit in my home (dog and cat friendly). I love to walk, hike, & go on many adventures with my pets! I look forward to watching/walking your “fur babies” and getting to know you! I work as a full time physical therapist but work very close to home so I am able to stop for potty breaks. Walks and drop ins can also happen first thing in the morning or after work hours! I have a fully fenced in yard, pool, and a very cute mini goldendoodle your pup will get to play with! We have lots of walks and neighborhood walking trails near by!
“Everything went wonderfully! I was worried about leaving Wednesday with her medical issues but Mikkal knew what he was doing and took great care of her! She seemed very happy and healthy when I picked her up and will gladly use his services again in the future should I need them.”
“Nellie was so well cared for and gots lots of exercise with Jessica’s two dogs. Jessica sent me pictures and updates which I really enjoyed. It was a wonderful experience for Nellie”
“Jen and her kids and Mugzy were great with our Hoagie. Every picture she sent he had a smile on his face. They gave him lots of love & attention. Jen will be our #1 furbaby sitter from here on out. We highly recommend her if you ever need a sitter that you feel comfortable with. Thanks to you all. See you again soon.”
“Katherine was so great with our girl Bella! I’m always afraid to leave my girl with someone I don’t know, but Katherine made sure to reassure me while we were gone with photos and videos every day! I think Bella loved her time there as well! Thank you Katherine!”
“This trip away for work was less stressful for me because I knew Buddie was getting lots of love and attention all week from Mike and Amy and having so much fun playing with his friend Bear.”
“Anthony and Jane were fantastic. Great communicators, really nice setup on their property with tons of space and a fenced yard. My dog got along well with theirs. Will definitely book again.”
“Andre (John) took great care of Gus and Penny. I appreciated the pictures and updates during their stay. My sister recommended Andre and she was correct. Great care!”
“Lianna was amazing. This was my first time using Rover and Lianna helped relieve any anxiety I had. Great communication, pictures sent multiple times a day, and answered any questions I had in a timely fashion. I 100% recommend her for your next fur baby stay.”
“This was my first time using a dog sitter. Kimberly exceeded all my expectations! She checked in and sent pictures of our dog multiple times during his stay. I felt comfortable that our dog was safe and well taken care of. I will definitely be booking again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Watervliet
Our dog Lucy was in such great hands with Debbie! We had a fairly last minute booking and Debbie took it on with ease, assured me Lucy would get lots of outside playtime and snuggles. Lucy became Debbie’s shadow by the end of the weekend! Would absolutely recommend and will use again :)
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! ❤️🐶
Frances is amazing! We will absolutley rebook and I would reccomend her to any fur parent. She is very communicative, sends lots of photo and video updates, and showers my pup with the love she deserves. I can travel stress free knowing my baby is getting amazing care.
Richelle was amazing! She was available when we were in a bind and she was able to care for our dog while we were out of the country. She kept us informed for the whole time and our dog seemed happy and well-cared for. We will happily book her again in the future!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Watervliet is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $83 per night. 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 393 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Watervliet. About 94% 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.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Meet & Greet.
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. 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.
Emergency support 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, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
