“Brenda was absolutely amazing with my dog! From the moment I dropped her off, I felt completely at ease. She constantly kept me updated with messages, pictures, and videos, which meant so much and really helped me relax while I was away. It was so clear that my dog was being well cared for. Brenda was always taking her on walks and spending time playing with her. When I picked her up, of course my baby missed me, but I could truly tell she had formed such a loving bond with Brenda. It was obvious that my dog adored her, and that Brenda genuinely loved her right back. Finding someone you trust with your dog isn’t easy, but Brenda exceeded every expectation. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and loving sitter!”

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!”
“As someone who based their choice on reviews, I had to share one too. Jodie was terrific from the 1st communication which was so fast. We are very protective puppy parents and this wasn’t easy for us to leave our Sonny Boy. Jodie sent us pictures throughout Sonny’s stay and it was so great to see him happy with her. He loved his stay and will definitely be back! Thank you Jodie for your wonderful care! 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Dan & Denise were great with my dog, Fred. I could see that he was happy for the entire weekend at their house. It really was like his own vacation! They were nice enough to send me pictures and updates of my dog while I was away which definitely alleviated any concerns I had. Fred had a great time in a safe environment with other friendly dogs! They were also accommodating enough to do a meet-n-greet before I booked my dog's stay. I would not hesitate for a second to ask Dan & Denise to watch Fred again!”
“Eliana was wonderful with our dog! Frankie was with them for 8 nights and it couldn’t have been better! They have a terrific and large fenced backyard with a big patio where Frankie loved to hang out, play and sleep in the sun. She took her out on very frequent walks and sent us pictures of Frankie’s activities every day. We would definitely recommend her, as well as use her again in the future!”
“Gerald watched our dog in his home for 10 days, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Our dog can get anxious when he's away from home, but he was calm, comfortable, and clearly well cared for throughout his stay. Gerald took him on walks in the nearby park and provided excellent care. He was also a fantastic communicator, sending regular updates, photos, and videos that gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. I would absolutely recommend Gerald to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. We'll definitely be booking with him again in the future!”

My Aussie needed some extra TLC having recovered from surgery and she gave him exactly the care that he needed. It's clear she genuinely loves the animals she cares for. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for put and total peace of mind. I'd trust her and recommend her without hesitation to anyone in need of a sitter who goes above and beyond. Thank you Jill!
Natalia went above and beyond, and I could not ask for a more caring and generous home to place my dog in while I was away. She sent near-daily updates with photos and videos and embraced every one of my loud but sweet corgi's quirks with care. Natalia, her dog and her household took care of my dog Athena and loved her truly as if she were their own. I think Athena might have even had a better vacation than me with all the snuggles, toys and fun she had! I cannot recommend or thank Natalia enough for the experiences and care she gave my dog.
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
My fur baby was well taken care of. I cant thank Daniel enough for the awesome service that has been provided. It was top notch! Very professional and kept me updated every day about my fur baby. I felt comfortable and will definitely use his services again. Thank you 😊
Jillian was absolutely wonderful with our 7-month-old puppy! This was his first time being watched by someone outside our family, and she made the experience so easy and reassuring. She kept him active, happy, and well cared for, and communicated with us daily with pictures and videos, which we really appreciated. It was clear our pup was in great hands. We will definitely be asking Jillian to watch him again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dogsitter!
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 for Dog Boarding in Brightwaters on Rover is $48.15 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 10,962 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Brightwaters. 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.
96% of Brightwaters 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 Brightwaters 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 Brightwaters 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 Brightwaters.
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 Brightwaters 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.
