“Chialing was friendly, communicative, and professional. She had our timid dog high fives within the hour. It was comforting knowing our dog was in good hands with the regular walls, a clean home, and of course a great host. Thank you so much!”
“Maria was absolutely incredible! I have a timid elderly dog and she thrived under Maria's care. I got lots of pictures and in each one Didi looked like she was having a great time. You can tell that Maria truly loves what she does and has genuine care and love for animals. I will absolutely be using Maria every time we need a dog sitter, which is perfect because I think Didi misses her already.”
“I had a fantastic experience with this dog boarding provider! From the moment I dropped my pup off, I felt completely at ease. William was kind, patient, and clearly passionate about animals. He provided regular updates, photos, and videos, which truly gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would book him again.”
“I’m a first time Rover user and Omar went above and beyond to make everything super easy. I had to head out of town kind of last minute and needed boarding for my Pitbull Border Collie mix, Sage. We met up beforehand so he could meet her and I could meet him, and I really can’t say enough good things. Omar made me feel at ease right away and was great with Sage. She was instantly comfortable around him. When I dropped her off she didn’t even look back at me, which honestly says it all. He sent daily updates with pictures and videos, and was always on time for drop off and pickup. Definitely a 10/10 experience. I’ll absolutely be booking with Omar again. 🐐”
“Rafaelina and her family have created a dog utopia! Their large backyard is basically an obstacle course for pets. They are very kind people and know what they are doing, how to treat dogs with unique personalities, and how to make all pets comfortable. Our pet had his first 'staycation' with Rafaelina over the weekend and it seems he had a great time.”
“I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Binta! She was wonderful, incredibly attentive, and overly accommodating throughout Laila’s entire stay. I absolutely loved the picture updates she sent me—it was such a relief to see Laila so happy and well cared for. Binta made sure Laila was comfortable and treated like family. It’s amazing to find someone so trustworthy and flexible. I’ll definitely be booking with Binta again!”
“Charmaine is great!! Friendly, professional, great communication. Our 10-yr old chihuahua mix was in good hands and we received daily updates and photos, which were much appreciated!!! Thanks Charmaine!!!”
“Auredy came through when I needed it the most. I had a last-minute cancellation, and I was stressing about finding someone to watch Romeo. They bonded well; Romeo spent a weekend with other pups and made friends. I am very happy with the service.”
“Stephanie and Corey were wonderful with our puppy, Max. They responded quickly to our inquiry and all was settled literally within minutes. Max took to them, and their dogs, quickly! They regularly sent photos and updates while we were away. Each time we were glad to see how happy and well taken care of Max was ☺️. We hope to book them again and again!”
“Mayra was truly a life saver for being so flexible in taking care of Charlie last minute for us. I could tell that Charlie was in good hands as soon as I met Mayra,she’s so caring and loving. I couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for Charlie while we were away. Thank you so much Mayra!”
“5 STARS!!!! Victor is a loving and talented pet person. He saved me in a last minute travel situation! I have a big & powerful dog who is doing her best to be good & calm, but does not always nail it! He was AMAZING with her!! I could tell that she felt totally comfortable and loved the whole 2 weeks I was gone. He walked her a lot and was very understanding about her special attributes & need to destroy toys. She slept in bed with him & was allowed on the couch, which was really comforting for her. I booked him the day before I left town and he was professional, pleasant & flexible with timing. He obviously has a great connection with animals & is an overall lovely person to communicate with on the daily (he sent pics & videos everyday). This is the first time I have picked her up after being away that she is genuinely happy & chill. Def book him!! I have recommended him to my whole family & all of my loved ones who own dogs. He lives on a quiet street with really wide sidewalks, good if your dog has dog reactivity. Perfect experience from start to finish.”
“Yanet was awesome! Very professional and made me feel comfortable from the beginning. My dog can be anxious especially going somewhere for the first time but she was just so great. She sent me lots of pics and updates. Her whole family was very loving towards Allie and treated her as part of their family. Will definitely be using her again. Great experience overall!”
“Destiny is wonderful! She responded promptly to my request and was very accommodating and flexible around my time needs for drop-off and pick-up. She offered a FaceTime call before booking so I could feel confident and answer any questions I needed. My dog is a senior dog and can have separation anxiety, but I could tell she got along quickly with her. She was kind, courteous, and very friendly. I’ll definitely be continuing to book with Destiny!”
“Two Two had a great 4-day stay with Joanna, and I even see improvements in his walking. Joanna sent pics and videos to me everyday to keep me updated on daily acitivities. Highly recommend!”
“Priyanka and her husband showed great care for Sage during his 4 day 3 night stay. They are stellar animal lovers and will be my go to whenever Sage has boarding needs.”
“Leaving Benito for the first time was much easier thanks to Adela. She is such a warm, flexible, and communicative sitter. Benito was clearly very comfortable in her home, which gave me such peace of mind. I’ll definitely book her again!”
“Elizaveta took such good care of Storm! She sent me pictures and videos throughout Storm’s stay and she along so well with Elizaveta’s puppy. Having just moved to the area, I’m so happy I found someone I feel comfortable leaving my baby with.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my PASSION! I’m a 32 year old Taurus who has been on CLOUD NINE since welcoming my first pet in May of last year, since then, as a dog mom myself… I decided that I want to be that home away from home for other dog owners who may be apprehensive about leaving their pet in the care of someone else. What I can assure you is that your dog will be loved, cared for, and attended to as if he or she was my very own! I have a career in life insurance, and I’m home all the time, and my dog does get lonely I think! It would be great for him to have a fur friend as a play date sometimes, so I thought of ROVER!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩 I hope to see all of your doggies soon!! I work full time as a life insurance agent, and spend most of my work days with the exception of Monday, at my computer, on the phone, or at the occasional in person event where I would definitely adjust my schedule here to reflect those dates. I live in an apartment with three flights to walk up. I can carry your dog up and down if needed, but my little Yorkieton skips right up and down! Lol Pets are allowed on the furniture, and Blue has a guest bed for visitors that will be washed frequently as well, and an extra blanket. Blue eats Instinct Raw, but also has Wholehearted brand dry food if your pet doesn’t bring any of their own, we are willing to share! Fresh spring water only and no tap water!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I highly recommend Shaun as pet sitter! He was very caring, responsible, and attentive to my pet’s needs. He kept me updated, made sure my pet was comfortable and well cared for, and showed genuine love and patience. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my pet was in such good hands. I truly appreciate his dedication and professionalism, and I would absolutely trust him with my fur bany again. Thank you for providing such excellent care!
I had to travel for work right after my dog had a scary medical crisis. She wasn't fully recovered, she had some complicated medication instructions, and I was a nervous wreck. Not the best conditions for a stay with a new dog sitter! But Nathalie was wonderful. She is very kind and knowledgeable about dogs. She kept me updated on how Maple was doing, figured out creative ways to get her to take her meds, and checked in with me to make sure I was ok with everything. I came home to a recovered and happy (though sad to leave Nathalie's house) dog.
Maria was excellent with my 8 month old Georgina. She pays attention to detail and treated my pup as if it were her own. Took her to the dog parks and Maria sent me so many photos/videos. Plus their resident dog got along so well with my pup and they had such a great time, together . Definitely will be coming back and using her services.
I couldn’t have asked for better sitters for Milo! Miryam and her husband are such kind, humble, and genuinely caring people. They made sure Milo felt right at home, showered him with love, and spoiled him as if he were their own. 🥹❤️ What impressed me the most was how quickly they got to know his personality, little quirks, and habits in just a couple of days. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. I’m beyond grateful for the care and affection they gave my baby. I would absolutely trust them with Milo again and highly recommend them! 🐾❤️
Stephanie and Corey were absolutely amazing with my baby! 🐾❤️ They were so playful and loving with her, sent tons of updates, photos, and videos, and truly treated her like their own. Their dogs were also the sweetest playmates for Piper! I usually get nervous leaving her, but they made me feel completely at ease knowing she was happy, loved, and well cared for. I couldn’t recommend them enough and would absolutely trust them with my baby again! 🥰🐶
Wilbur seemed happy during his visit with Nikki. Easy arrangement and communication with Nikki - would’ve loved more photos and updates each day - but just happy to see Wilbur was in good shape after the 6 days :) Their dog Scout was super happy to play with Wilbur so it was good companionship at Nikki’s house.
Brayhana is the best. I rely on my dog to tell me how a sitter does, and Rosie makes it very clear that she adores her. Rosie gets excited as soon as we turn onto the block and bounds toward the front door. I know she’s is treated with love and care, and I appreciate how Brayhana checks in each day.
We left our doggy again with this lovely family - who now have a baby who is also so sweet with Wilbur. We love them so much and love knowing Wilbur is being taken care. During the heat wave, they made sure to take special care (walking in the morning, ensuring AC is on) as our dog gets super hot outside.
Alyssa was absolutely amazing! From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely loves animals, and she took care of Peanut and Sprout as if they were her own. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. When I picked them up, they were happy, well cared for, and clearly received so much love and attention. It’s such a relief to find someone I can completely trust with my babies. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Alyssa to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter. Peanut and Sprout can’t wait to see her again, and neither can I! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

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 West Mount Vernon home-away-from-home, 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 West Mount Vernon.
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.
You and your West Mount Vernon 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 , 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 .
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.
