“Thank you for taking such good care of my Lily while I was on vacation for a week. The constant updates and photos put me at ease to know my little girl was happy and comfortable being away from me for the first time. I loved that she was the only dog in the home with someone always home to let her out or monitor her. She had a lot of fun! Will definitely be booking again for any future trips.”

“Bella had a great time hanging out with Erin and her family. She got lots of ball time and cuddles. Erin made up feel very comfortable and welcomed our pup. She provided lots of photos and updates for the duration of Bella’s stay. We will be returning customers!”

About: I’m 59 years old and I’ve cared for many dog breeds since I was 10, poodle, lab, mixed breeds, golden doodle, pitbull mix. I take pride in how I take care of my dog from what I feed him, clean up after him, and keep him happy and comfortable. I believe I can offer the same attention to detail for a guest dogs needs. I am a full time programmer at the Riverhead County Clerk’s Office working 7-3 Mon-Fri, I would like to try boarding on the weekends and possibly during the week as I get more comfortable with this process I have a fenced in yard 4 foot fence, and own a 5 year old mixed breed terrier that loves to play. I’d be looking to care for friendly small to medium sized dogs that have are up to date on shots from the vet. I have a spare large crate if needed but it would be best if you have your own since your pet is used to that one. I’d like to see vet records of shots and meet before hand to make sure our pets get along
“Christine is a wonderful dog sitter. We left our dog with her this weekend for the first time. The environment was awesome, my dog felt right at home and made new furry friends. I recieved updates and pictures and was completely at ease. Christine is warm and welcoming and I will use her again. Thank for the awesome care of my peanut as I call her. I would recommend her to others and already have.”

“Dan and Denise were hospitable, extremely organized, caring and really understood how to take care of an energetic young Giant Schnauzer. He was well exercised and came home happy. He also, enjoyed playing with a few compatible dogs. They even sent us videos and photos during his stay to keep us informed. We will be looking forward to future sleepovers and play dates.”

I have experience working with rescue organizations and offer foster care to animals requiring special attention. Currently in service dog training courses with my Australian Shepard. I work from home most days, so pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m only away from home for about six hours on two days each week. Outside of work, I spend much of my time with my animals, gardening, and enjoying our little homestead—especially when the weather is nice! I have a fully fenced yard plus a separate secured area for my chickens. My own dogs, cats, and chickens live here, but visiting pets are always supervised and safely separated when needed.
“This was our first time using Rover. I was very reluctant to use a person I did not know, or friends didn't know. However, I am so glad I took the chance with a 5 day/overnight in Sarah's home. It's a relief she only takes one animal at a time since our dog doesn't like other dogs. At the meet and greet, Sarah asked many questions to get a feel for Milo (eating & bathroom habits, walking, sleeping habits etc...) To start, her home is absolutely immaculate. I received a daily update with pictures on how our dog was adjusting & doing overall. Milo was displaying some quirky behaviors which Sarah reported right away & thought was cute/funny. She was very accepting, flexible in many ways, and an absolute delight to talk with. It is apparent she is a dog lover! Upon pick up, Milo was happy and all his belongings were packed & ready to go. We plan on using Sarah again for our next trip, if she's available.”

“Trisha was great, she kept us in the loop with pictures and texts the whole evening. It was the first time we left our dog Jax who’s 1-1/2 old boxer with tons of energy. Thank you Trisha and we will definitely leave Jax with again and again.”

“My two pups are my babies and leaving them with someone I didn’t know for the first time was overwhelming. Chris immediately put us at ease and my boys loved him. We were updated daily with photos which made it just a little easier to be away from them. We also have one reactive dog that Chris handled very well. We felt so comfortable leaving our dogs with Chris and will absolutely be using him again in the future. Thank you Chris!!”

“Great experience with Kristen! My pup really liked her and her home. My dog is often anxious but she was very relaxed and happy when I came to pick her up after the stay! I really liked Kristen too—very nice person. Highly recommend!!”

“Jieun and Matt were absolutely wonderful! They took great care of our Louie and sent us amazing photo and video updates throughout his stay with them. We really appreciated their communication and updates, which made us feel at ease knowing Louie was having a great time in their care. He also loved playing with their pup and we were so happy he had another furry friend to hang with! Thank you and will definitely book again!”

“Jay was awesome. He send us a picture and an update everyday. I would recommend and definitely use Jay again. Our family says: Thank you Jay for taking care of our dog-(Benny).”

“We had such a wonderful experience! She took amazing care of our dog and kept us updated throughout his stay with plenty of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that he was happy, comfortable, and having the best time. He especially loved getting to run around and play in her yard! 🐶❤️ We could tell he was very well cared for and came home happy and tired from all the fun. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Isabella took amazing care of Abby. We have never left our sweet girl with anyone before and we were anxious to say the least. But Isabella put us at ease right away and sent us photos several times a day. It looked like Abby had a better vacation than we did! I would highly recommend Isabella and trust her implicitly.”

“Our dog Remy had a wonderful time with Yi Jia and her dogs! We are new to the region and Yi Jia made us feel comfortable by walking us through her property / house where Remy would be staying and that gave us a lot of peace of mind. She sent us a lot of pics of Remy playing with her dogs and kept us informed throughout the stay. Remy had an incredible time with her and the dogs and cannot wait to go back!”

“Tammy made us feel comfortable with leaving our fur baby with her for several days. She's a true professional that obviously loves dogs! She often sent us pictures of our 7 year old morkie, allowing us to relax on our time out of state. Fantastic and highly recommend.”

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:)
