“This was the first time being away from our dog and Nicole did a great job at making him and my family feel at ease! She regularly kept me updated with messages and pictures and took very good care of him. Will definitely use her again!”
“Athena took great care of my dogs. She kept me updated on how they were doing and sent pictures as well. She followed all my instructions and when I picked them up, they were happy. I will definitely book her again for Prince and Princess!”
“Ilona and Will were AMAZING. We booked last minute over Christmas weekend and she was very responsive and available on short notice which was great! Very accommodating with drop off and pick up times, we got updates daily and the cutest pictures! She watched all three of our dogs, and they came home happy, healthy, and tired!!! We will definitely use and recommend them again!”
“James & his family were great! They gave Austin lots of attention & took him on walks, to the park & even the beach. He was super patient with Austin’s leash reactivity which I greatly appreciated. I knew Austin was in good hands while I was away.”
“I would give Katherine, Odin, and the whole family 10/5 stars if I could! I’ve never seen my dog open up so quickly in a new environment—or have so much fun. Katherine sent a steady stream of photos and videos while I was away, which completely put my mind at ease. It was clear he was having the time of his life—honestly, it felt like a vacation for him too! I’ve already booked his next stay and couldn’t recommend them more. You won’t find a more loving or joyful home for your pet!”
“Dominique is wonderful, kind, communicative, super responsive, and a joy to work with. We have a nervous, 95 lb pup and I’m a nervous dog mom - Dominique took so much time to make us both feel comfortable for Saint’s first boarding - sending tons of pictures and always staying in touch. Dominique also walks Saint once a week (so we could make sure our nervous pup was prepared for this boarding) and Saint absolutely adores them. Saint almost never gets excited to see “strangers”, but when Dominique comes to pick her up, Saint thinks she’s hanging out with her best friends. There’s days Saint knows Dominique will be coming for her walk, and she’ll sit by the door waiting, given how Saint is super shy, seeing her look forward to a friend coming over like this makes me so happy. Dominique knows dogs, with a background in dog training, they knew exactly how to make Saint feel comfortable in no time at all (Dominique was “friends” with Saint within five minutes of her first walk!!). We would recommend Dominique without hesitation to anyone in the area.”
“Hands down, one of the best dog sitters you could ever ask for! If you’re looking for someone you can genuinely trust with your furry family member, he’s absolutely the right person. He took such wonderful care of Zia, was incredibly attentive, present, and caring throughout her stay, and his communication was exceptional. He truly goes above and beyond to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Zia was in such good hands. You don’t come across people like him very often. I couldn’t recommend him more highly! 🐾”
“Kristen was amazing to work with! She sent daily updates with adorable pictures of my little old lady, which totally eased my nerves since it was my first time leaving her in someone else's care. I'd happily leave my dog with her again.”
“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.”
“Jatna is amazing and sweet. She took care of my cat very well with patience. And sent me text and pics regularly How my cat was doing. I sent a lot of items so my cat felt like He’s in home. Jatna packed all things clean and neat in a bag on the last day. I was very impressed!”
“Sabrina is our trusted go to person for watching Magnolia while we are out of town. She’s was super accommodating when I had a miscommunication about drop off and always shares the best updates. We’re so glad to have found a trustworthy and caring person like her.”
“I had an amazing experience with our pet sitter and couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. From the very beginning, she was reliable, professional, and genuinely caring. She kept me updated throughout each day with regular texts and plenty of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Thank again so much!!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my Sheltie received. She was accepted at the very last minute, and he was incredibly open, kind, and accommodating. He truly pampered her and made sure she felt comfortable and loved the entire time. I received plenty of daily photos and videos, always following every instruction exactly as given. It’s clear he cares deeply about the pets he looks after. Highly recommended.”
“Eleanor was amazing! She treated Mango like her own and was incredibly easy to communicate with. He had a wonderful stay at her apartment. Would absolutely recommend.”
“Kam was an absolute dream. Responsive, professional, and with a big heart for our furry loved one. We knew our baby was in good hands when we got pictures while we were away. She didn’t simply watch our dog, she played with it, took care of it, brushed it, and showed it love. It’s one thing to get a job done well, it’s another level entirely when it’s done well with such love and care. All this for an amazing price. Kam is going on our Christmas card list for sure.”
“She was very considerate and open to communication. She cared for my dog with great love and kept him active. She stayed very vigilant on caring for his diet which made me so relieved about his stay, knowing someone exceptional was watching over him while I was away”

This was my first time leaving my Rusty with anyone other than family members. And when I tell you from the moment I met Taylor she definitely gave me that feeling of family and she made me feel so welcome in her home. I went on vacation for 7 days and she never missed not one day without sending pictures or videos. She will definitely be my forever sitter. Thank you Taylor for welcoming my baby and treating him like he was yours. We love you ❤️
Dan is terrific! She took Benji to multiple walks throughout the day and gave him plenty of time to play. She followed his feeding schedule carefully and kept me regularly updated with photos and videos of each meal and walk. I could rest assured that Benji was in great hands and having a wonderful time at her place! We’ll definitely be coming back to Dan for future stays. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring and reliable to look after their fur babies!
We boarded our two pups with Lynn for our wedding weekend and she was fantastic! Drop off and pick up were seamless, and Lynn provided regular updates although we were a bit slow to respond at times. Would definitely recommend Lynn to anyone and would book her again in the future!
Jasper had a great time with Nari, Ryan and Jiyu! We did a meet & greet and 1 day boarding prior to our vacation. Our dog seemed happy during his time away. Nari and Ryan sent daily videos / photos ensuring we felt comfortable while away. They accommodated the time difference well, were flexible with pickup and drop off, and were super great with our instructions. They walked Jasper several times a day and even brushed his fur. We will use them again, great sitters!
I had great communication with Janet throughout the entire process. We did a meet and greet before the stay, and she asked thoughtful questions beforehand to really get to know Isabella. During the stay, she shared lots of photos and videos, which appreciated. Isabella adjusted quickly to the environment and became buddies with her dogs.
We booked Anny for ann overnight stay and from the start she made us feel extremely comfortable. We dropped are dog off and immediately we had pictures of the dog. Anny treated our dog just like it was here own she has a beautiful home extremely clean with all the necessities a dog could use. We picked up are dog and she was happy you could see the care that Anny and her family gave. This was a great experience I highly recommend Anny to watch you dog extremely professional and caring you will not find anyone better.
I had to find a last-minute sitter for Romeo while I was away. He was initially staying with family, but due to some unexpected medical emergencies, we had to make other arrangements. I was so lucky to find Jun T., who took care of Romeo for 15 days. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Jun took wonderful care of Romeo, took him out for walks, and sent me pictures and videos every day along with regular updates. Knowing that Romeo was happy, safe, and well cared for gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I’ll admit I was a little nervous because of a previous bad experience with a Rover sitter, but I trusted Rover enough to give it another try. This time, I decided to look for someone a little farther from home and try a new environment for Romeo—and I’m so glad I did! I’m truly happy I found Jun T. He clearly has a genuine love for pets and treated Romeo with care and affection. I would absolutely use him again. Now I know that whenever I travel, Romeo has someone I can trust who will love and care for him as if he were his own. ❤️🐾
Second stay with Annie and once again, exceptional service! Communication was excellent, all instructions were followed perfectly, and our dog was extremely well cared for. Having a reliable, trustworthy sitter gives us complete peace of mind while away. Highly recommend!
Liming was wonderful! She took such great care of our dog and kept us updated with lots of pictures throughout the entire stay. She was incredibly responsive and always quick to reply whenever we had questions. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such caring and capable hands. We would highly recommend Liming to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter!
Veronica and her family are the best. I know my fur baby is safe and happy when she is being doggie sat by them. She treats them like she’s her own child with so much love, affection and hugs and kisses. Rosie loves Veronica and her family very much and they love her. She’s the only person I would ever trust my fur baby with while I go on vacation or have an event. Thank you Veronica for all you do. The pictures and videos assured me she was happy and when your babies are happy-you’re happy! We love Veronica!!!
Sabrina was a great pet Sitter. First and foremost, you can tell that she loves animals and takes great care of them. She provides excellent communication and sends lots of pictures and videos so you know that your pet is comfortable and well taken care of. She followed my pet’s routine and went above and beyond to make sure my pet was comfortable. Overall she’s a very friendly person and was super accommodating with scheduling for drop off and pickup. I highly recommend her our experience (my dog and I) was great I would definitely book with Sabrina again.

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 Whitestone 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 Whitestone 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 Whitestone.
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 Whitestone. 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 Whitestone 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.
