“Erica was amazing with my girl Sweet Potato! She was super responsive when I needed a sitter in a pinch, and was communicative throughout her week-long boarding, putting me at ease throughout. I will definitely request Erica to take great care of my kid in the future.”
“Abbas was really friendly with our dog and sent great updates. They walked a lot and the dog enjoyed it! Their apartment is great and looks like they were able to use their patio.”
About: I’ve taken care of small to medium sized dogs for over 10 years. From neighbours to family members pets, I’ve made sure that they’ve been well taken care of. Not only that, I’ve helped train/raise young puppies. I work full-time. I’m remote Thursdays and Fridays, so I’m free for walks and drop-ins those days. Evenings are open too. Weekends are wide open for boarding or longer visits I live in an apartment with a grassy rooftop enclosure. Great for potty breaks and playtime. My dog Bijou is friendly and social. She loves company, so your pup won’t be alone.
“David and his partner were amazing with my Tater :) They know so much about rescue dogs and helped with his anxiety while I was away. This is the longest I’ve been away from Tater and they helped me too by sending lots of pictures and updates on him! Highest of recommendations! Thank you again!!! Such a wonderful experience!”
“We've left our dog with John & Madeline multiple times now - including while on vacation for 8 days. They take amazing care of him - making sure he gets his meds (including a twice a day injection) and that his feeding schedule/plan is followed just right. They also take him on multiple walks a day and lots of trips to the park. Plus, they take great photos of our buddy, which they send to us along with an update each day. Highly recommend trusting your pup to John & Madeline!”
“Ben was great and send lots of photos with our guy looking happy and healthy. Ben was also really flexible when our travel plans changed and changed again. Was great to work with and our dog was happy and well cared for!”
“Lenford was incredibly communicative and caring for my anxious girl. I was very nervous to leave her, but he took excellent care of my baby and will be my go-to going forward!”
“Tallin was a truly wonderful dogsitter! I've left my dog with very few sitters before, so I was a bit anxious about leaving him with a stranger, but Tallin put me right at ease with twice-daily updates and lots of photos. I will absolutely try to book with her again next time I need a sitter!”
“Megan is such a great sitter! She took her time with helping my dog feel safe since my dog is a rescue. She sent me picture updates, and contacted me if she had any issues. She is very responsive. Will use her services again in the future.”
“Pamela and her lovely family were perfect hosts for our pup! He got plenty of walks and cuddles, and she sent regular updates. Chester had a great time, and didn't even realize we were gone, ha!”
“Doris is a soft-spoken, sweet and genuine person who relates very well to dogs. My dog, who has a lot of anxiety, went and leaned against Doris' legs almost immediately at our meet-and-greet, and was put at ease by her calmness and gentle manner. She's a natural!”
“Sam was absolutely wonderful with Kulfi! She paid attention to all of our instructions and made sure to give her tons of affection and play time. Sam sent lots of cute pics too so I knew Kulfi was doing well! Sam was also very accommodating and actually came to pick Kulfi up since she lives close by. I can’t wait to book with Sam again soon!”
“Alicia was great! Our Maltipoo felt right at home with Alicia during our stay oversees. She’s great with communication and sends frequent updates. She also was able to keep our doggie for an extra day when our flight was delayed. Would def recommend again!”
“Syd’s care and attention to detail with Oliver is unmatched. You can tell she truly loves and cares for every pet she watches. Her detailed daily updates & photos allow us to fully relax and enjoy our time away knowing Oliver is in such great care. 100% recommend Syd!!!”
“Krystal took wonderful care of our dog, Joules, while we were away for two weeks. We were initially nervous about leaving our older dog for that long, but Krystal made the experience completely stress-free. She kept us updated regularly, gave Joules plenty of attention and long walks, and clearly cared about his well-being. We came home to a happy dog and couldn't be more pleased. We highly recommend Krystal!”
“Steven was a great dog sitter for my two dogs! I have a pitbull and chihuahua and I could tell they had so much fun with him. He was really helpful taking care of them last minute and was very understanding when I had to change the pick up time to later.”
“Michael watched our doggo, Hastings, while we were away on an anniversary trip. While we were away, Michael was communicative and flexible when we had some travel issues. We felt confident that Hastings was in great hands! We would absolutely book with Michael again!”
“I highly recommend Tanner for any dog Rover service. She did such a great job watching my pup! She was very flexible as far as picking up/dropping off my dog. I loved the daily updates and pics that she provided :)”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Brooklyn
We can’t say enough positive things about Akiko, George and Emi. It was like a second home for our boy. Their communication was faultless throughout, and as previous loving dog-owners of their own, they were always one step ahead with what our dog needed. Bruce has found a second home!
Dillon was amazing! He made drop-off and pick-up so easy. He has a really warm and kind energy, and it’s obvious how much he loves and cares about dogs. Beanie can definitely be a little grouchy and particular, but I could tell by the photos he was feeling comfortable and right at home right away. I will definitely be using Dillon again!
Ilse was great! She took such good care of our co-dependent, Velcro Frenchie, demonstrating great patience as she was adjusting to her new environment, all the while Ilse was providing us with updates and photos. We’d definitely book Ilse again (if she’d be agreeable :))!
This was the best experience, we were so nervous but her attentive care really put us at ease.Doris kept us informed at all times about our dog. She sent updates and photos many times per day on Caramels day. We are so grateful and would definitely book her service again. many Thanks from our family.
Maria was an excellent and attentive dog sitter! Her warm personality immediately put us at ease, and our two little dogs had a blast and warmed up to her and her place in record time. She sent us lots of updates and photos, which we really appreciated. She even picked up our dogs on a rainy day, which made everything so much easier for us. And somehow, she managed to make our crazy little Zuzu feel completely seen and understood (which is no small accomplishment! 😂). We felt very comfortable knowing our babies were in such good hands and would definitely recommend Maria!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Brooklyn on Rover is $60 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $89 per night. 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.

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 Brooklyn 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 Brooklyn 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 Brooklyn.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Brooklyn 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.
