“Summer was extremely amazing with loving on my fur baby while I was away! She was very responsive and kept me updated with tons of photos and videos. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Stephanie was awesome with my puppy and was very flexible with pick up times! He had the best time with her dogs and she made she he was comfortable the entire stay. I would highly recommend!”
“Wonderful pet parents- took fantastic care of my little guy. Sent great updates while he was there. They obviously have many many years of pet ownership and of pet sitting experience. And their little dog is adorable and got along extremely well with mine. I know he is looking forward to his next visit at their home!”
“Jenna was so awesome!! Very communicative and responsive with scheduling, sent lots of pics and updates throughout each day, had a beautiful and safe home for my dog to play and relax. He even came home with a new toy!! Absolutely would recommend.”
“Lynn always goes above and beyond when it comes to caring for my 16 year old chihuahuas. She doesn’t just watch them, she loves and cares for them in a way that every pet lover dreams of when it comes to their animals. Along with daily pictures and messages, Lynn even gave us a framed picture of my two pups that I will forever cherish! Could not recommend enough- I even think my dogs were sad when I picked them up because their vacay at Lynn’s was over!”
“Great experience! He watched him a little later since I was held up in traffic on the way back from Tennesse. My dog came home happy, with a bow on his collar, and a present! They had great communication and I couldn’t be happier with them! I will use them again when needed.”
“Nicole took great care of my dog, Cooper! She was very easy to coordinate pick up and drop off times and she provided updates along with pictures during the stay. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
“Christine conducted a meet and greet with us before we confirmed the stay. She is very attentive and my Louie looked so happy in the pictures. I will be booking again”
“We’re really happy with Debra and how she handled everything for our dog while we were out of town. We arranged for a meetup before the stay to ensure this would be a good match. When I dropped off our dog there was an introduction to the other pets in her home so our pup could get acclimated. While we were away we received daily updates with photos and it looked like our pup was having a great time. Thanks for taking good care and we look forward to scheduling with you again!”
About: I've cared for dogs for the past 3 years and have loved every minute of it. I also have a dog of my own, Brooklyn, so I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. I treat every dog with the same patience and attention I give him. My medical training as an oral and maxillofacial surgery resident has also taught me to stay calm, pay close attention to detail, and take responsibility seriously. I work full time as an oral and maxillofacial surgery resident, so I plan my pet care around my hospital schedule. I offer dog walking and overnight boarding, and I'm available every day from 6 PM to 7 AM. That means your dog gets my time and attention all evening and overnight. Please message me before booking so we can confirm that my schedule fits your dog's needs. I'm attentive and engaged with every dog in my care, and their safety always comes first. I keep dogs on a leash during walks, follow your feeding and treat instructions, and stick as closely as I can to their normal routine. Overnight guests stay with me in my ground-level apartment. There's no fenced yard, so outdoor time is always on a leash and supervised. I'm happy to send photo updates so you can see how your dog is doing.
“Aspen was an amazing pet sitter. She sent many pictures and updates on how my dog was doing and adapting to the stay. I had no worries leaving Jazzy with her. I will definitely have her watch my dogs in the future. I could not ask for a better dog sitter.”
“Swetha did an excellent job with our last minute booking. We will definitely use her services for our dog Pia. She sent pics and updated us with her activities daily.”
“Leslie is amazing. She takes great care of our fur babies and always does a little extra that helps us know things will be fine while we are gone (water plants, bring in mail, etc).”
“My dog loves Emma, he was well cared for and I got lots of pictures to show how he was doing during my travels, it made me feel very happy and satisfied. She really takes the time to care and it shows because my dog is very happy.”
“Olesja and her family are amazing! Our dogs had a great time and she sent through lots of pictures while they were there. Absolutely recommend her, our girls will definitely be returning!”
“Lillian was amazing! Nala was treated like her own which I loved. She instantly made me comfortable with her experience and love for dogs. She kept me informed with pictures and updates of Nala’s stay while I was away. I would definitely recommend Lillian’s services and will be booking again.”
“Our travel plans changed last minute and Marcie was amazing about it! She kept our dog an extra day no problems! Sent me pics everyday like our dog was part of the family! Amazing!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Brooklyn
Katie was a fantastic sitter!! She suggested a meet and greet prior to accepting the job, which allowed us to see her space and get to know her a bit, which made us feel so comfortable. She asked great questions and was very thoughtful and kind about our pup’s habits and quirks. During the stay, she provided great communication and regular photo updates, which gave us great peace of mind as well. Very thankful for her time and care.
We had a wonderful experience! Our two girls were so well cared for while we were away, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Everything went smoothly, and we came home to two happy girls! We’re so grateful for the care and attention they received and would absolutely recommend!
We would absolutely trust Aspen with Oyster again. She sent regular updates and photos. Oyster loved playing and sunbathing with resident dog Clifford in the grassy, fenced backyard; testing out the many cozy dog bed options inside, and chewing on bones provided by her host.
Tori and her husband were incredible! This was my first time using Rover so I was a little nervous about it but it couldn’t have been a better experience for me and my pup! They took such good care of him and sent me updates every night. My pup had a blast playing with their cutie pups. I will absolutely be booking again!! THANK YOU!!! 10/10 no notes :)
We had such a great experience. This was my first time using Rover and I was really nervous. Devon was super communicative and really made our dog feel comfortable. Our dogs got along great. Devon only hosts one family’s pets at a time, so I wasn’t worried about additional complications. 100% would book again!!!
Kara is the absolute best. I don’t worry about my Maggie for a second when she’s with Kara. She’s happy to go and enjoys her own little vacay. Kara sends photos and updates daily. Our Maggie is a bit of scaredy-cat when it comes to rain/storms and was at Kara’s house during a few at her last stay and Kara updated us and loved Maggie through it. Your pet will not be cared for better anywhere else. Kara is the right choice!!
Chelsea and her husband are always great with a watching Hank during the day for me. This time they watched him for 2 nights while I was out of town. I got photos everyday and he always has phone hanging out in the pool and playing with the other dogs. Glad I have someone I can trust to watch my little buddy for me.
Tina & Rick are my go too sitters; they are kind, compassionate and understanding towards my Husky (and her behavioral changes as a senior dog). They are always flexible, which is good because I’m a huge procrastinator!!! But definitely book well in advance don’t be like me. 😂

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Brooklyn is $32 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $39 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 November 2026, there are 789 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Brooklyn. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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.
96% 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brooklyn. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 OH 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
