“Veronique and her husband were excellent. They honored our same day request for a meet and greet so that we could feel comfortable booking quickly. During my trip they proactively sent pictures and videos daily and gave daily updates on my dog’s comfort level and activities. They were wonderful to partner with and I’d happily leave my dog in their care again because they made me rest easy on my time away. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Delmy was great! My dog loved spending time at her house and he got lots of belly rubs! She sent multiple pictures throughout the day and he seemed comfortable and happy. Would definitely recommend.”
“John was an amazing sitter for our dog Lucy! From the start, he was kind, affectionate, and genuinely seemed to enjoy spending time with her, treating her as if she were his own. Lucy also enjoyed playing with his sweet dog, Dallas! Johns communication was outstanding—he sent thoughtful updates and photos and always responded quickly, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Lucy came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We highly recommend John and will absolutely be booking with him again!”
“I can’t say enough about Vanessa and her family! We left our labradoodle with her for the weekend and received tons of videos, pictures and text messages about how Brandy was doing. The care she received from everyone in the family was top notch. I could see every day that she was playing, eating well and getting lots of love and attention! I am truly grateful.”
“Eliana made my Velcro dog at ease. She was the only dog that night so she got to feel very special. Eliana made us feel very much at ease leaving her there. She sent us so many pictures throughout the evening to make us feel even more at ease. We live out of state but if we visit again, we would definitely let Snickelfritz stay there again.❤️”
“I was happy with Thomasina watch my dog Scout. She was amazing and kept me updated and sent many pictures. I will definitely be using her again. It was nice to have someone I trusted to watch my dog.”
“Kerri was a fantastic sitter for my active lab. She kept me updated and sent tons of pictures daily of him having the time of his life. They cared for him as if he was their own and I couldn’t be more grateful. Macallan cannot wait to stay with Kerri and her family again!”
“Joanne did her usual great job boarding our dog at her home. He was happy and healthy when we picked him up. Joanne kept us informed of his condition with pictures each day reassuring he was ok. Absolutely a good value and experience. Thanks again Joanne”
“Theresa and her family were so good with Baxter that I now think he prefers them to us! She shared plenty of updates and photos and provided a safe and engaging home for Baxter while we were away. We would definitely repeat.”
“I had an amazing experience with Wenxu taking care of my cats. Everything was absolutely wonderful! The care and attention given to my little ones were exceptional. I truly appreciated receiving photos and updates of my girls, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. The service was excellent, and the love and care they provided were beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Wenxu to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and caring with their pets. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my little ones! ❤️”
“Erin boarded our dog and followed all of the same routines.We did every day.My dog acted and seemed to feel like it was a second home at aaron's house.We were so grateful and happy with her service and would only feel comfortable boarding at this house again”
“Already after the meet and greet I felt beyond comfortable leaving my dog with Lisamarie. Her 2 dogs and my dog got along great, I’m pretty sure my pup hasn’t been bored one minute, since he “crashed” when we picked him up. Thanks again Lisamarie and when needed will definitely ask you again”
About: I absolutely love dogs! I would have 100 of them if I could, but that’s not realistic, so instead I get to watch other people‘s dogs. My own older dog, Milo is my whole world, and I treat every pet in my care like they’re my own. I know how much your fur baby means to you, so I make sure they get plenty of love, attention and patience. I love this job and would love to watch your pup 🐕💗 Services 🐶 Dog Walks: A stroll around your neighborhood that gives your pup the exercise, fresh air, and mental stimulation they need. Drop-Ins: A visit at your home that can include: Potty break Feeding and fresh water Playtime and exercise Snuggles and companionship Whatever else your pup needs House Sitting / Overnight Boarding: I stay overnight with your pup so they have company and comfort in their own home (or mine), along with attentive daytime care every 0-2 hours depending on your dog’s needs, including: Potty breaks and walks Meals Playtime Cuddles Medication, if needed Doggy Daycare: Time spent with your pup while you’re away, giving them whatever they need: Hydration, food, and treats Cuddles and playtime Walks About Me✨ I’ve cared for family dogs my whole life, and I’m usually the person family and friends call when they need a reliable pet sitter. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and gentle care, and I’m comfortable with all personalities. I’ve also administered medication to my own dog, Milo, so I understand the importance of consistency, routines, and paying close attention to a pet’s needs. With Milo, I handle everything from bathing and daily care to teaching basic tricks and maintaining a structured routine. I truly enjoy building trust with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention I give my own. What Makes Me Stand Out 🐕🐕🦺 Time and attention: I have a flexible job, which means I’m available for drop-ins and house sitting with flexible scheduling, frequent potty breaks, companionship, and attentive care throughout the day. Walks that go beyond the block: I make walks fun and mentally stimulating, not just a quick loop. Depending on your dog’s personality and energy level, walks can include: Sniff breaks New routes to explore I am self employed so I have tons of flexibility in my schedule and can absolutely make time for your pup! Pet care is already a huge part of my daily routine so caring for animals comes naturally and I would love to add your own 🐶🐕💗 I have a large fenced backyard with tons of grass space and areas to sniff and run around. I also have my own dog, Milo, who is sociable and can keep your dog company and help them feel more comfortable. Milo loves to play and is well trained.
“I wish I could leave more than 5 stars Jinay made me feel so comfortable drop my dog off it was my first time experiencing this so I was a little bit nervous Jinay made it so easy her and her husband are amazing I will definitely be booking in the near future thank you again !”
“Jennifer was so lovely and very accommodating. I know Lexi loved all the love and attention she was receiving (as she is a spoiled brat). She had the house all to herself and all the humans lol. Would definitely rebook when the time comes for my next adventure.”
“Highly recommend Yaina for dog boarding. We had a very positive experience with the whole process from start to finish. Our dogs came home happy and healthy after boarding for over a week, and we received daily updates and pictures. It was a pleasure dealing with Yaina, and we will absolutely look to board our dogs with her again in the future. I would give more than 5 stars if possible.”
“Great experience with Jen from beginning to end! Our pup Blu stayed with her for 6 days and we felt very comfortable knowing she was in good hands. We received updates while away with pics showing our pup comfy cozy in her care. We'll definitely be booking with Jen next time we travel.”
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up in a ranch-style home, we had dogs of many different breeds, sizes, and personalities, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve also had dogs of my own since I was around 14 and have cared for them through every stage of life, from playful younger years to their senior years. Because of that, I’m comfortable with different temperaments, routines, energy levels, and the extra patience older dogs may need. I truly enjoy being around dogs and would care for your pet with the same attention and affection I give my own. I work during the week, but I’m available before and after work, in the evenings, and on weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine for walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and safe, and I’m attentive to their individual routines, personalities, and needs. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos while they’re in my care.

Your search is over - Jillian is wonderful!! Not t only s she affectionate and loving with all of the dogs she is also a wonderful trainer ! My dear g had the time of his life the 4 days he spent there , playing and cuddling with everyone !!I am SO happy that I met her and I’m sure you will be too!!
Estefany was great with our pup.! We have used her for a weekend trip as well as a 2 week trip and received daily pictures and updates. We weren't sure our dog would want to come back home with all the fun she was having. She was definitely well taken care of and loved. We will absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to others.
We had a wonderful experience boarding Chloe with John and his wife. They are lovely people, their home is immaculate, and it is obvious they love dogs and enjoy caring for them. Their own dog is very well behaved and got along well with ours. We highly recommend John and would certainly board Chloe with him again in the future.
Joanne was caring, conscientious and professional. This was our first booking with her, and she thoughtfully sent many photos with updates on how our boy was adapting to this new environment. He had previously been boarded only with his breeder. He was fine, happy and well taken care of. We would gladly book with her again.
I am so happy to have found Eliana! Leaving my fur baby for a few days made me very anxious. But Bruno was in great hands! She took care of him like he was her own. I received many pictures that made me relax seeing him so comfortable! I will always contact her whenever I need her services again!
Stephanie was an amazing sitter, I will be rebooking for many times to come. She is communicative and cared for my dog so well. My dog was with her for two whole weeks and I couldn’t believe how clean she still was when I picked her up! Everything I left her with was returned in the same condition.
Pam and her staff were absolutely wonderful! I could tell immediately that she was a true animal lover who knew how to ensure that our dog was both comfortable and safe. The twice daily updates and photos made us feel like we never left and we knew he was having a good time and we could relax. We will definitely be using her services again!
Gerald was absolutely wonderful with our rescue dog, Harley, who can often be nervous and anxious with a sitter but seemed to feel right at home with him. Gerald was kind, patient, and attentive to Harley’s needs and was excellent about communicating with us throughout her stay. We would most certainly use him again and highly recommend him!
Freedom was a huge help when we had to book at the last minute due to a family emergency. They were very nice to Cleo and accommodated her food needs and energy level. They also made a very cute portrait of Cleo and gifted her a bandana, which she is still wearing and loving. I highly recommend Freedom to others looking for a sitter.
Jamie is absolutely amazing!! She was an excellent care taker for our dog.. making sure to keep his meds on schedule... getting him to eat on a schedule when he normally doesnt (he's a grazer!) and allowing him priority position with her on the couch during the few moments of rest they both had. I got a regular stream of photos and check ins about my dog and never had a doubt he was in great hands. The only doubt I had was whether my dog was going to want to come home. She is so great with dogs and I know for sure we will be using her again in the future. Thank you for everything Jamie!!
Matt was extremely professional and accommodating. My flight was canceled on the return flight and was not able to pick my dog up. Matt was able to care for him while I made arrangements. Highly recommend using Matt for anyone in need of a dog sitter and will be using Matt's service in the future
We left our pup with Debra for his first boarding experience, and I could not be more relieved. I was super anxious, especially since he was dealing with an ear infection, and we were in town for a wedding with no other option. Debra immediately put my mind at ease. She and her family were so kind and kept me in the loop with updates and photos. It was clear she understood his special needs and made sure he was comfy and safe the whole time. I loved getting the regular updates—felt like he was in great hands. By the time we got home, he seemed happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, warm, and communicative person to care for your dog, Debra is awesome. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Bay Shore is $72 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $43 and $89 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 9,828 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Bay Shore. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
95% of sitters in Bay Shore 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 Bay Shore 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 Bay Shore.
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 Bay Shore 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.
