“Erica is a fantastic sitter!! She made my senior pup Ruby feel comfortable and happy and sent me awesome detailed updates with adorable pics along the way :) Very grateful to have such a reliable, kind and responsible sitter in the area and can’t wait for Ruby to stay with her again soon! Thank you again!!”
“Thank you for watching my little buddy during my trip. Updated me with pictures, gave Jesse his medicine, took him for walks and played with him. Couldn't ask for more!”
“Tiffany took excellent care of Cannoli during this past long weekend! Cannoli seemed to like and trust her right away and came back happy and relaxed. Tiffany was communicative and reliable throughout the experience from meet and greet to pickup. I would definitely ask her to care for Cannoli again and recommend her services!”
“We wanted to find a sitter in our neighborhood for when we are away. Jane was amazing and took in Siuy as though she was hers. I received constant communications and photos and loved how Siuy and Fancy zoomied with each other. My hope is that Jane would be willing to look after Siuy the next time we are away. I don’t think I can trust another sitter!”
“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.”
“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 :)”
“I highly recommend Pamela. Pamela was very easy to communicate with. She regularly sent photo and video updates of my little one during the stay. I could tell my dog was spoiled and taken well care of. I would love to use Pamela again.”
“Butterscotch had such an amazing time with Sam. We got daily updates and felt really assured knowing our baby was having as much of a vacation as we were. Sam was quick to respond to our every need and was extremely accommodating. Butterscotch already got her next visit booked!”
“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!”
“Meilin is so friendly and took such amazing care of my dog! During the meet and greet I could tell she was very knowledgeable about dogs. During my dog’s stay with her she sent me daily updates and I could tell my dog felt comfortable with her. I highly recommend Meilin and would definitely trust her to watch my dog again.”
“Jasmil was AMAZING with our dog, Papa. She watched him for over a week and took the most amazing care of him. We felt Papa was so safe and cared for while with Jasmil and her family. Papa can be a high needs dog with medications and behavioral quirks but Jasmil was truly an angel with him!”
“Bogie has been going to Xiao and Rob’s for a while now, and every single visit is just as wonderful as the first. Bogie absolutely lights up when he sees them, which says everything. They know his quirks, his favorite spots, and exactly how to keep him happy. The regular updates and photos never get old, and I always feel completely at ease.”
“Doris and her family always take great care of Brownie as if she was their own fur baby. I can tell from the photos that Brownie is having a great time. I would not hesitate to recommend Doris as a sitter. Brownie has stayed with Doris several times now and she always comes back happy and in great shape. Thank you so much!”
“Sherry and Walter took great care of my dog! He can be a little nervous in new settings but he had a great time. They sent me updates during his stay which was much appreciated.”
“Tiffany and Joel were my best experience on rover yet - they were very communicative about my dog, ensured he stayed active, shared tons of pictures, and kept a close eye on how he was doing at every point during his stay. Will definitely be requesting another stay with them!”
“Vera was great! She provided updates and photos during Hunter’s stay. It really helped that her dog Gryff was around to keep Hunter company as well. We’ll definitely be using Vera again in the future :)”
“Diane was amazing! She took special noting all my care instructions, and sent lots of photos throughout the week. I can tell my pup already misses her and will definitely be booking again!!”
“Kyle was absolutely fantastic with Archie. He hosted Archie for boarding for an extended period as I got sick while away, and he was extremely flexible and always responsive within minutes. His daily photo and video updates were much appreciated, and Archie came home very healthy and happy! Will definitely book with Kyle again!”
“Reetu is so sweet and really goes the extra mile for your pet. Our dog stayed with her for the first time, and was extremely nervous and shy (our girl has anxiety due to being abused by her previous owners). Reetu was patient and kind, taking the extra time to work with her. We received consistent updates and pictures about how our dog was doing. Although Luna was a handful (we’re so sorry!) Reetu handled her with all the empathy we could ask. We highly recommend her!”

angela and jonathan are amazing! they showered cowboy with so much love and attention and sent tons of photos and video updates throughout his stay. they were extremely communicative and thoughtful, and they made sure to reach out to me with any questions that came up regarding how to make him feel most comfortable and at home. cowboy is very sensitive and shy at first and they really made sure to earn his trust and make him feel calm. i can tell that cowboy fell totally in love with them almost immediately and i’m excited for his next stay with them!
Rosa Maria and her dog Chuco were super welcoming to our dog Maple! The two dogs both became fast friends during Maple’s stay! Rosa Maria provide updates with cute photos throughout the day and was really easy to schedule drop off and pick up with! Look forward to having her help dog sit for us in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Brooklyn is $60 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 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 14,014 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Brooklyn. 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.
94% 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, 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.
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 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 , 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.
