“Savannah was pretty thoughtful, even brought Drogo to the truck at pickup because it was raining. Drogo was in good spirits and didnt seem to be stressed at all. Good stuff. Was our first time with a sitter. She sent 2 pictures over the 3 days and the kids loved that. We dont travel too often, but if we do.... She's at the top of our list.”

“I know my dog was well taken care of when she takes the time to give a quick kiss to each of her caregivers! And…during the excitement of Mamas home! Thank you so much for the kind and loving care and the great communication and photos! Those go along way to help sooth mamas anxiety of having to leave her baby with a new person! Thank you, thank you thank you!”

“Hannah was the best! She's so understanding. I drove up to Vermont to visit family & Gizmo had to stay with her. During drop off, she thoroughly went over everything he may need during his stay & at pick up, he was prepared & ready to go for our 5 hr drive back home. She sent pictures & provided updates. I can tell she truly treated him like her own. Gizmo was so happy during his stay. Hannah even sent him home with his favorite toy that he found at her house. I am so glad I was able to find her (it was last minute too) & we will absolutely be a returning client. Gizmo made a forever friend in Vermont. Thank you so much!”

About: We recently lost our beloved golden retriever to cancer, and our house feels far too empty without him. While we're not quite ready for another dog of our own, I'd love to share some of that love and affection with yours! We live on a beautiful property with lots of land, trails, and a pond. Some of my favorite parts of having a dog were long walks in the woods, swims in the pond, and taking breaks from my computer for a game of frisbee. I work remotely and am home throughout the day, so your dog would have plenty of companionship, exercise, and attention. I know firsthand how hard it can be to find someone you trust with your pet, and I'd care for yours like a member of our family. We have two children under five who absolutely adore dogs. They're at daycare during the day, but we'd want to make sure your dog is comfortable around young children. Our golden slept in our bedroom every night, but I'm happy to accommodate your dog's usual routines and sleeping preferences. I'm also comfortable administering medications and caring for dogs with additional needs. Most of all, I'd love to give your dog a happy, loving place to stay with plenty of fresh air, activity, and affection! I currently work from home so have plenty of time for pet care. I was used to the routine of caring for our energetic golden and am feeling the void of the companionship and the responsibility. I do not have a fenced yard but have three acres that bumps up to a 50 acre field. There are miles of private trails that I can walk on (leash or no leash).

She made us feel at ease while we were on vacation by providing us with regular updates. Our dog loves to walk and she got plenty of exercise with Janessa which we know helped her be calm and happy while we were away. I highly recommend Janessa. We are looking forward to booking with her again for our next trip!”

About: I have had dogs and pets all my life growing up. I love to take care of friends and family’s pets for them. More than happy to help take care of other’s like they were my own! Currently working in a hospital so my schedule varies but can always plan around you and your pets needs to care for them. Weekends usually work the best for me. With your pets in my home, they will have plenty of space to run around and play. I also am close to a small park and beach. I am more than happy to walk them so they still get all the fun and attention they would get at home!

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 Westport 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 Westport.

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 Westport 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.
