“John was a life saver and amazing to our senior dog Frida! We had a same-day emergency booking and a flight that made us get to him very late, and John was still super accommodating and kind. I’m sure Frida had lots of fun staying with him for the weekend, and we’ll definitely book with him again whenever we’re near him.”
“Jinay was awesome and her family couldn’t have been sweeter and more welcoming to Zeke. She was flexible and communicative and kept me feeling reassured that he was in the best hands while I was away. Highly recommend!”
“Jennifer was amazing! She took such great care of my dog Dunkin’. She kept me updated throughout his stay with messages, pictures and videos. She went above and beyond my expectations. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“This is the second time my dog has stayed with Antonia, and she absolutely loves it there! I always get lots of pictures and updates, and I know she’s being well cared for. Every time I pick her up, she never wants to leave. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️”
“Great family. Hard working and very reliable. Plus has no problem working with whatever situation you might get stuck on during a vacation. Great job we will book again.”
“Alex took care of Causi and Simba for a week even when we contacted him at the last minute. We received videos and photos of our dogs everyday. They played with other dogs and always had fun with them. Alex made them feel at home and he took care of them like his own dogs. We recommend Alex and hope he always has availability for our dogs.”
“Petunia ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️‘S Carlos Andrés. I wish you all could see how she runs to him when we drop her off. It is so sweet. They have a genuine love for each other. Best sitter EVER!”
“Catherine was so sweet with my dog. She kept up with her energy and gave her lots of swims/walks on the beach. There was such a calm energy in the house. Daisy felt right at home 🩷”
“Christine was amazing to our pup while we stayed at a house that does not allow dogs. She is super friendly and caring. A true dog lover. We dropped off our dog on her Birthday and Christine sent special photos helping her celebrate it. Thanks again!”
“Ariel watched our dog for the first time. He came home happy and very relaxed. Charlie has a fear of thunder and some anxiety. Ariel understood this and let us know how he did when the weather was bad. She sent us pictures and information about how he was doing. We would definitely leave Charlie with her again.”
“Sandy is the most caring dog sitter. It is nice to be able to go on vacation and not worry about my dog. Also, Sandy’s dog Lacy is a great companion for my dog Nora. Nora is always so happy to see Sandy and Lacy. Sandy responds instantly to text, sends pictures, and treats Nora as her own. Her house is dog friendly and Nora is welcome on the couch to snuggle. I feel blessed to have found such a loving sitter. Respectfully, Jennifer Pena Proce”
“Amazing caregiving to our two babies (Tiger and Georgia) by Laura and her family! We left them with Laura for about 2 weeks. We loved it! We will recommend them to anyone. -Navarun and Michael”
“I’m so grateful for the wonderful care. Hazard not only kept him safe and loved, but also really took the time to get to know him. The thoughtful updates she sent gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear she paid close attention to all the little details, which reassured me that my kitty was in the best hands. She truly made me feel at ease. 💕”
“I highly recommend Lorena! Not only does she communicate with updates daily but she goes above and beyond to make sure your dog is taken care of and comfortable during the stay.”
About: For the comfort and safety of every pup, I only host one family’s dog at a time. This allows me to give your dog my full attention and maintain a calm, low stress environment. My care goes beyond the basics. it’s rooted in genuine love and experience. My journey caring for Kayne, our special needs dog, taught me how to handle medical routines, provide comfort, and stay attentive to every detail. That experience shaped my approach to every pet I welcome. I understand that each animal deserves patience, respect, and love. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs a little extra care, they’ll always be treated like family in our home. We’re CPR and First Aid certified, giving you extra peace of mind while your pup is in our care. Pet care is woven into my daily life and something I genuinely love. As a stay at home mom, I’m home full time to give every furry friend constant love and attention. Our days revolve around walks, playtime, and snuggles. Caring for our late dog, Kayne, who developed a spinal injury and heart condition, taught me that true care takes patience, compassion, and adaptability qualities I bring to every pet I meet. In our home, every animal is treated like family. I provide a clean, safe, and active space with multiple walks, a fenced yard for play, and individualized routines. Through my experience caring for Kayne, who required special medical attention, I learned how to adapt to any level of care whether it’s energetic puppies or older companions needing extra comfort. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in loving, capable hands that treat them as one of our own.
“Patrycja was great! She walked Oshie frequently and sent photos daily. When I arrived, Oshie was glad to see me, but also acted like he would have gladly gone back inside her house if I had let him 😂. I highly recommend Patrycja and will use her again if needed!”
“Colleen truly put me at ease immediately with my 14 year old small dog! She sent pictures of his wonderful adventures in her fenced in lawn, going for walks, playing with his toys and even let him snuggle in bed at night where he is used to sleeping! Colleen was a true professional, inviting to tour her house and did not rush one moment, making sure I felt 100% comfortable. I will absolutely use Colleen again in the future when I’m traveling to Long Island. Thanks Colleen!”
“Hank had another lovely stay with Matthew and Kristin. We really appreciate the frequent updates and pix. Also, a big thank you for keeping Hank’s meds on schedule for his itchy foot. He’s all better now! Thank you!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Yaphank
This was our first time using Rover. It was so easy! We had a variety of dog sitters to choose from within a short distance. Something told us to look into Jocelha. She is THE BEST!! Sophie had a great time. Jocelha sent us lots of pictures and had detailed and funny stories about Sophie’s days & evenings. We were starting to think that she was having so much fun, she might not want to come back home with us!! lol
Ariel watched our dog for the first time. He came home happy and very relaxed. Charlie has a fear of thunder and some anxiety. Ariel understood this and let us know how he did when the weather was bad. She sent us pictures and information about how he was doing. We would definitely leave Charlie with her again.
We booked Lorena for our senior dog Onnie somewhat last minute as our regular pet sitter had a medical emergency only a couple of weeks prior to a two week vacation. Lorena was lovely to chat with via the Rover app and was flexible with scheduling a meet and greet. Onnie needs extra care as she takes an oral medication, topical medication and wears dog-diapers. Lorena handled it all in stride. We were left at ease knowing the Onnie was receiving amazing care and lots of love. We loved receiving lots of pictures and video updates. Lorena’s house and large backyard are clean and pet friendly. Lorena will be our go-to sitter from now on. Do not hesitate to schedule with her:)

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 Yaphank 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 Yaphank.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Yaphank 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.
