“Rene was terrific with my dog King. He had never been anywhere overnight before except with family members so I was a little nervous because he doesn’t do well with strangers. Rene won his confidence and mine. Thanks Rene.”
“Kay and her family were excellent to work with and took really good care of Lucy. I felt like we were leaving her with a trusted family member. I also appreciated the regular updates and photos. I never felt at all worried, and will absolutely book with her again. Thank you!!!”
“Shiloh was crying with anticipation when we were 2 blocks away...He runs in the house and paces by the door waiting to see Aspen and Koda....He couldnt have cared less whether i stayed or left...which actually is a great feeling and an indicator of how comfortable he is at Sara's house. we get pictures and updates which is wonderful and we pick up a happy well cared for dog.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Kelsey and her family watching Charlee for us! We got updates and was always quick to respond. Charlee will definitely be visiting them again!”
“Sophia was absolutely wonderful. She took my two dogs boarding them on short notice for a week because of a family tragedy and two more emergency days without a problem. She completely understood and was flexible with me. My health isn't the best and I am on Chemotherapy...She was able to help me with the dogs as I am unable to do some things on my own. When I was out of town not only was I able to see my girls through the web cam. She sent pictures and updates on how and what they were doing which was amazing and took that anxiety off immediately. I will be using Sophia again and I just couldn't thank her enough for helping during this time where I needed help and she was there for myself and my two girls!”
“Ramanda and her daughters were wonderful and took great care of my 4mo old puppy! They walked him, played with him and made him feel at home just like he was their dog. We will definitely ask them for care in the future!”
“Laura rocks! Immediately upon arrival Moxie was comfortable and excited, and I was 100% sure that she'd be well cared for. I received lots of updates and photos that showed one happy pup! Looking forward to our next opportunity for sitting by Laura!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Tracy. I was genuinely so nervous boarding my dogs for the first time, and from the very beginning she made me feel completely at ease. She was warm, patient, reassuring, and so communicative the entire time. What really stood out to me is how naturally comfortable my dogs were with her. You can tell she truly understands animals and cares about them like they’re her own. She sent updates and photos, answered my anxious first-time-boarder questions with so much kindness, and made the whole experience feel safe and personal. Finding someone you can actually trust with your dogs is huge, and Tracy is absolutely that person. I’m so grateful we found her and would recommend her in a heartbeat.”
“Kristi went above and beyond for our little guy, Bear! We received many updates with pictures and videos during his weekend stay that made us feel comforted. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Dayjah and her family were great. I got pictures of my dog Colby and updates on how he was doing with his stay. He got to play with other pups in the fenced in yard.”
“Mayumi provided the utmost best care for my senior dog, Moose. He stayed in her home while I spent 12 days abroad, a healthy and clean environment for any pet’s care. I received daily photos and updates of my dog and she even ran out to the store get more dog food when the food I left with her ran out. I would recommend anyone to Mayumi. 10/10 Service.”
“Meghann and her family took great care of our 6 month old puppy while we were on vacation. We received daily pic updates and communication. We’ll definitely book with Meghann again in the future!”
“Amazing, Andrea treats Monty like he’s one of her own dogs. She gives us updates promptly about how Monty is enjoying his time with her and her family! He absolutely loves going there!”
“What a wonderful sitter! My partner and I loved all the pictures and messages sent throughout the day, it really put us at ease. I will absolutely be contacting Yuli again for any future doggie day care needs. Our dogs loved her and you could tell she and her family really loved them back too.”
“Mochi has the best time at Alicia and Simon's! They send us daily pictures/videos/ and updates. When Mochi comes home he is always exhausted and sleeps for 2 days!!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Buffalo on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,166 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Buffalo. 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.
97% of Buffalo 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 Buffalo 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 Buffalo 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 Buffalo.
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 Buffalo 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 MN 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.
