“Jen was amazing. Took my boy on the shortest of notice and sent pictures the whole time. My boy had a health concern that wasn’t bad enough for her to call me while I was away but was worth mentioning when I picked him up which I can’t even say how much I appreciate. I’ve had bad experiences leaving him before so I get very nervous but 10/10 I’d trust Jen with my dogs any day and would go out of my way to book with her again.”

“Ginger is a fantastic human, Sheba seemed very content to cohabitate with. Ginger went above and beyond in her care for my girl. She sent texts, pictures and videos to keep me posted on how my husky was doing throughout her stay. If I go out of town again I know the exact person I will contact through Rover. Thanks again Ginger”

“Jack took our dog for boarding on short notice and sent us pictures periodically showing that he was having a good time. I would definitely bring him for a stay again.”

“If you want your pet to be given the love and care they deserve while you are away, bring them to Brad and Mery. I could not be happier with how Otis was taken care of and I will absolutely be returning.”

“Gillian is a really sweet lady who seems to know how to handle and treat dogs. She helped us exactly the way we needed, quick drop off, and quick pickup. Would definitely recommend.”


“Kyle has care for my pup overnight, for anything from 1 night to 9 nights. She is amazing. My dog clearly loves her and is very comfortable each time I bring him. Kyle is extra communicative and shows my dog love in ways that go above and beyond. My pup and I find Kyle to be very trustworthy and safe. We really appreciate her.”

“This trip away for work was less stressful for me because I knew Buddie was getting lots of love and attention all week from Mike and Amy and having so much fun playing with his friend Bear.”


“Kassandra and Johnathan were great with our Puppy Leo! He is a big ball of energy and they were great with him and he loved playing with their dog Charlie. I would recommend to anyone in the area and will definitely bring Leo back when we need boarding again!”

“Amazing as always! My doggie didn't want to leave her house. He has so much fun when he is at Peg's. She takes really good care of him and he loves her. She is very flexible when we are running behind to pick him up or if we need to drop him off earlier.”

“I'm thrilled that I found Maegan to care for my dog Finnigan when I go away. Finnigan's first overnight with Maegan was a complete success and I didn't have to worry about a thing! Finn loved her and he loved being with other dogs. I most definitely recommend Maegan as a caregiver for your fur baby!”

“Rebecca and her sweet little family are delightful. She is so thoughtful and loving. She sent lots of pictures for me and assured me Duke was in great hands. I will absolutely use her again!”

“Kevinh was a phenomenal dog sitter. He was available last minute to watch our small dog. He took Kona on several long walks, send many pictures and regular updates. Great communication. Kona was extremely comfy and cared for ! I would 100% recommend Kevinh!”

“We don’t let anyone else watch our French bulldog. David takes her for plenty of walks, gives her lots of attention, and makes sure she gets her medication. She’s very happy with David, as are we!”

“Tatiana was wonderful. I felt so safe with Lola there and I could tell by the pictures I was being sent that Lola herself was very comfortable there as well. She clicked right away with everyone there (dogs and people), and snuggled into her own little spot. All of the positive messages and pics helped a lot, but I could tell that Tatiana and her daughter were dog lovers and that they had been doing this for a while. Thanks, guys, for making Lola feel so comfortable and cared for there, which made me feel a thousand percent better about that during what I had to do while she was away (a funeral). And I was able to add another day because we were all too exhausted and sick to pick her up at the normal time, which was a lifesaver. Tatiana was so gracious and helpful! We hope to see you again sometime soon. ?”


“John was amazing! Super responsive, even to a last-minute/ day-of booking! He took wonderful care of our lil Roxy, and sent lots of updates and photos throughout the days, which we so appreciated :) She’s 15 years old and can sometimes be a little skiddish, but she took right to him and he made her feel right at home. He’s a great dog sitter and was very kind and caring, will definitely be booking with him again!”

“It is such a relief to find a sitter for your dog and have peace of mind. This couple are a gem. We received a bunch of videos and pictures to show how much fun our dogs were having while we were attending an event. Highly recommend!”

“Kayla is a fantastic Rover. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Will continue to seek her services in future and would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and safe dog watcher without question. Thanks Kayla and Brandon!”

“Lauren was great to work with. Our dog stayed with her for a few days while we traveled out of town and he looked great in his pictures. You could tell he was right at home.”

“Katie was wonderful! My family just got a new puppy on Monday and had to go away that weekend for my husbands work, so it was awful timing. She was very responsive, super sweet to my puppy, and her son was great as well. She even sent me a few pictures to keep me updated. I felt very comfortable with her watching our dog. And went ahead and booked ger for another weekend as well. I’d definitely reccomend Katie, and plan to use her again in the future for anytime we need a dog sitter,”

“I booked with Natt for a last minute thanksgiving trip and I’m glad I was able to have her watch my dog Coco for me while I was gone. The communication from start to end was great all the daily updates on my dog and the picture mail was amazing my dog was well taken care of I appreciate and thank you for everything. I will be booking again in the future.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Ballston Lake on Rover is $53.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 394 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ballston Lake. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
98% of Ballston Lake sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Ballston Lake landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ballston Lake 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 Ballston Lake.
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 Ballston Lake 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.
