“Kevinh was fantastic! He gave adequate updates on Zula and sent lots of cute pictures. Drop off and pick up was a breeze and he responds to messages quickly. He’s also very flexible if you have travel delays. I could tell that Zula was very comfortable around him. I would highly recommend.”
“Peter and Monique were so attentive to our dog for a whole week. Peter was very thorough in asking all about Sooty’s needs and preferences. We really appreciated the updates and photos, our dog had a lovely time and was very well cared for. I booked Peter based on reading the reviews and would say exactly the same as others have. Definitely recommend and will be booking again in future.”
“Saskia watched our two dogs at her home, and we had a great experience! They were both very well taken care of, and Saskia sent us several photos throughout their stay, which we really appreciated. Our dogs seemed to have a great time and got along really well with her dogs. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were away. We will definitely be booking with Saskia again!”
“Brooke took excellent care of my dog. When I picked her up from Brooke's house, she was relaxed and calm, not anxious and pulling like she usually is when I return from a trip. Leah really enjoyed her stay with Brooke and she came home tired and happy. I appreciated Brooke's notes and pictures while we were away. I would not hesitate to recommend her and would love to use her services again.”
“I felt great leaving our dog with Jennifer. She is so kind and clearly loves animals. She already had a number of pet supplies and toys which made things even easier since I was traveling at the time I had booked for boarding. She sent updates and was flexible with drop off and pick up times. I would definitely book with her again.”
“It is always so comforting to know that Bailey is in good hands when we go visit our family. She keeps us informed and sends pictures. This is the fourth time we have used Brigid and Bailey seems to feel just as comfortable there as he does at home. Thank you Bridgit!”
“I cannot recommend Maggie enough! She is incredibly responsive and really makes you feel at ease while you are away from your pet. We continue to utilize Maggie’s services over and over again because of her passion and professionalism. Our dog doesn’t even hesitate when we pull up to Maggie’s, he loves her and being there so much. I really cannot say enough good things. Our dog comes home happy, healthy and exhausted from the great time he had while at Maggie’s.”
“First time leaving our dog with John, and he's a keeper. Excellent communications. Quick responses and regularly sent pictures and updates. Large fenced backyard for dogs to run and he has a playful dog that ours enjoyed. John is also friendly and seems very responsible. Highly recommend and we plan on turning to again.”
“Amanda was great with our dogs. She listened carefully to each of their needs and made sure to accommodate particular requests. Amanda was prompt in getting back to us anytime we reached out and sent us occasional photos of the dogs playing or resting. She has a lovely home and large fenced-in backyard where the dogs could run free and get plenty of exercise. We felt at ease knowing our precious pups were kept safe and warm while we were away!”
“Vera was nothing short of amazing. Her professionalism is outstanding! She has definitely found her calling. Vera immediately became family. We are excited for this new relationship!”

“This is the second time we entrust Penny to Christopher and his lovely wife, and they continue to provide wonderful care for my elderly pup, all while sending me pics and videos of her, which is always wonderful. Penny requires attentive care with meds and some ear cleaning, and Christopher did both. They are great dog sitters!”
“Lauren is great with our dogs. They have very different personalities and she's great with both. In addition, when our plans were crazy because of the snow storm and we weren't sure when we'd get home, she was super flexible.”
“Margie was all I could ask for and more! Our dog, Blaze, had a wonderful time. I got pictures and updates for the entire stay and they made Blaze feel right at home. Thanks so much, Margie! We will definitely be visiting again.”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Canaan on Rover is $72.15 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 267 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Canaan. 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.
100% of Canaan 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 Canaan 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 Canaan 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 Canaan.
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 Canaan 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.
