“Iris w/her husband took care of my two pups Mia & Milo the last 5 days. They took such great care of them. Milo still a puppy at 13 months & Mia a 10.5. They handled them both with such care. With special instructions for Mia’s medicine to my hyper playful puppy seeking attention often. Iris sent pictures & videos showing me how happy & content they were! They’ll be back with Iris in just a few short days again! I’m so happy that I feel 💯 at ease knowing they’re in great hands!! Highly recommend Iris taking care of your fur babies too.”
“Sara and her family are wonderful! Our dog Ember has stayed with her many times over the last few years and always has a great time. Sara sends frequent updates and I always feel comfortable knowing that Ember is getting amazing care. Thank you Sara :)”
“Kathi and company were great sitters on a short notice, they took great care of my dog, provided me with pics and updates twice a day. I will absolutely consider her to look after my dog for my next trip.”
“Anthony was so great with my fur baby! We needed a sitter last minute and he was able to accommodate quickly and he made sure to send us updates with pics and videos daily. Definitely recommend :)”
“Joanne and her family where absolutely perfect to care for Carmelo. He seemed to adjust so well into there family and made it comfortable for me to take a peaceful vacation without the worry of how Carmelo was doing. I would recommend using Joanne as I will again.”
“Kerri and her family took great care of our big Newfoundland mix. Her dogs were friendly and played well with my dog all week. I appreciated getting photos every day which let me know my dog Juneau was happy and safe! Looking forward to booking with her again in the future. Thanks again!!!”
About: I have a deep passion for animals and years of hands-on experience caring for pets of various breeds and sizes. Growing up around pets has given me a strong understanding of canine behavior, body language, and specific care needs. Whether it is managing high-energy pups, maintaining strict feeding routines, or just providing endless belly rubs, I treat every furry guest like a member of my own family. I am highly attentive and dedicated to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you are away. I work from home full-time, which gives me incredible flexibility and allows me to provide around-the-clock supervision and companionship for your pet. Your dog will never feel lonely, as I am around throughout the day to offer frequent potty breaks, backyard playtime, and regular walks. My flexible remote work schedule ensures that I can easily adapt to your pet's established routine, meaning their feeding, medicine, and nap times will remain perfectly on track. Safety is my absolute top priority. My home provides a secure, pet-friendly environment where your dog can relax comfortably. I am extremely proactive about monitoring behavior and ensuring all areas are completely pet-proofed. When welcoming guest pets, I am very careful about proper introductions to ensure everyone coexists happily and safely. I strictly follow all owner instructions regarding specific house rules, crate training preferences, and safety boundaries, ensuring you have total peace of mind and receive plenty of photo updates.
“Beautiful, spacious and completely pup design home. Lots of other furry friends made fluffy stay easier. Thank you Christine for your attentive care. We are coming back!!!”
“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.”
“Kimberly took great care of my golden retriever Jake while we were away for a long weekend. She sent tons of pictures of him having a blast with her two adorable Goldens and kept us updated the whole time. We will definitely be bringing Jake back!! Cannot recommend enough!”
“We left our 5 month old kitten with Amber and he had the time of his life. Amber is so caring and wonderful. She kept us updated every day on how he was doing, sent us lots of photos and videos. If you want a great pet sitter, Amber is definitely it!!”
“Kristen was great with Hudson the English Mastiff. Kept us updated on him settling in to his new surroundings for the week and she made us feel at ease. Would definitely rebook with this Rover in the future. Keep up the great work and thanks again.”
“Roxy always enjoys her stay with Melissa! She is super communicative and sends a lot of pics. The best part is since Melissa only takes smaller dogs, Roxy gets lots of playtime with other pups her size! We know Roxy is in great care while we’re away with Melissa.”
“Gerald did a great job with my senior foster, Pam. She deals with significant anxiety and back-leg pain, so I was nervous about leaving her in a new space with a stranger, but I had nothing to worry about. She settled in quickly and even felt comfortable enough to trick Gerald into getting off the couch so she could steal his spot. Although she’s usually reluctant to be active, she went on several walks with him. Gerald was also great about sending regular photos and updates, and very flexible when I ran late for pickup. Highly recommended for anyone with a senior or high-needs dog.”
“We left our family Dog, Luna, with Alex for 9 nights and he did a great job! Alex sent a short video and photo every morning to keep us assured that Luna was having a great time and was doing well! I would highly recommend Alex and wouldn't hesitate to use him again!”
“Troy was an absolute godsend. We had a last minute 5 day trip come up and I was nervous handing off our Newfoundland to someone new, especially on short notice, but Troy put me at ease from the first message. He asked all the right questions upfront, was flexible with our chaotic schedule, and clearly knows how to handle a big, gentle giant breed. He sent photos and updates without me even having to ask, and I could tell our dog was genuinely comfortable and happy with him the whole time. We came home to a relaxed, well loved pup and zero stress on our end. Troy is reliable, communicative, and just a genuinely good person to trust with your dog. Can’t recommend him enough, we’ll absolutely be booking him again.”
“I would highly recommend Catherine for her pet sitting service. She watched my dog for 2 weeks and he was very well taken care of. She was very loving and attentive to him while I was away and I knew he was in good hands. She sent me pics during his stay and he looked like he was having a great time which made me very happy. I would definitely use her again.”
“First time using the app and couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my fur baby. Christina’s communication was stellar and the entire experience was spot on. Enjoyed receiving the tons of photos she sent of my pup smiling from ear to ear every day during the entire duration of his stay. Layla the family Husky is an absolute gem. Will definitely use Christina again in the future. Thank you!!”
“Karishma did an excellent job taking care of our puppy. This was the first time we had left our dog alone overnight, and Karishma put us at ease with her demeanor and was great about sending photos, videos and texts about how she was doing. When I came to pick her up, she had everything packed up for us and ready to go.”

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!
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.❤️
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!!
We are thrilled with our experience with John! This was our first time using this site, and he was amazing with our Benny. He kept us updated with pictures and videos, which made us feel at ease. Having his dog Dallas around was a definitely bonus. Thank you, John! We would love to work with you again and highly recommend you!
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 Pet Boarding in Brightwaters on Rover is $48.15 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 11,258 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Brightwaters. About 88% of Brightwaters sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
