“Huk & Finley LOVE staying with Jamie & Brian. They're always making new puppy friends when they are there and are so well taken care of. I love all of the pictures and updates I receive and especially love the fact that I can take a vacation and not have to worry about whether or not my pups are being taken care of or receiving enough attention. They certainly get a lot of snuggles with Jamie and Brian! Thank you so much for another great stay!”

We WILL be returning for all future boarding as long as she will have us ? absolutely incredible and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Thank you again Aimee!”

“I had a wonderful experience with Hannah and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, caring pet care.

I would absolutely book with Hannah again.”

About: I grew up around animals. I have taken care of my own dogs, cats, rabbits and fish throughout my life. I have also taken care of friends pets when they’ve gone out of town. I am comfortable with large and small dogs, cats, and caged animals. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time for your pets. I have a 4yr old who is comfortable around animals and I am available for boarding if your animal is comfortable with men, women, and children. I live on a quiet street in an apartment and look forward to walking with your dog at my home or yours. I am comfortable working with multiple kinds of collars and leashes.
“Maribeth took loving care of my four-legged girl while we took our daughter to college. She sent updates and pictures. I will leave my girl with Maribeth any time. Highly recommend!”

“She watched over my cat for a couple of hours and was amazing. Updated me with pictures and videos making sure he was okay. He loved the pets and attention from her. Definitely would recommend!!”

“Elliot and Dominique took such wonderful care of our pups! This was our first time ever boarding Gabe and Angela Basset. They loved Elliot and Dominique from the minute they met them. They took such great care of our dogs. Loved the daily texts letting us know how they were doing, including adorable pictures of them! They even sent report cards home with them. Would definitely leave our pups with them again!”

“Shawn was so helpful, calm, and caring. She put me at ease and was flexible. Belle loved being at home with Shawn and her family. I received updates, pics, and vids. I will definitely book with her again and am so grateful she was there for Belle and I in a pinch!”

“My dog Bear had an amazing experience with Hannah. He loved the environment and socialized with the other dogs. Hannah sent pictures and communicated frequently. I love the set up that he had his own space or he can have one on one time or socialize with the other dogs. I highly recommend Hannah. She has a lot of experience.”

“This was the first time I have ever left my dog with another person, and safe to say I wasn’t disappointed. Megan was an amazing sitter for my 60lbs pit-bull, Polar. He enjoyed my walks and cuddles during his stay. Megan sent many pictures and updates, and followed all the guidelines that we gave. Honestly, we could not have asked for better. Polar will indeed be back!!!”

About: Your fur babies safety and happiness are my top priority! Whether your dog prefers a brisk, high energy workout or a gentle, sniffing focused stroll, I tailor every walk to their specific routine and energy level. You can expect real time photo updates if requested On a weekly basis, I maintain a carefully managed calendar that balances core, recurring client walks with flexible windows for short notice needs or weekend check ins, guaranteeing reliable and stress free care for pet parents. I provide attentive, high quality care centered on the safety, happiness, and well being of every animal. I excel at creating a calm, structured environment where pets feel secure and comfortable. My approach combines reliable routine management such as precise feeding schedules and structured exercise with the love and individual attention each pet deserves. I am highly observant, quick to recognize shifts in animal body language or health, and dedicated to open, real time communication with pet owners to ensure complete peace of mind.
About: I have been walking dogs and taking care of cats and dogs for years. I give cats and dogs some attention and play with them. I am currently available on weekends and week nights for walking dogs. I am flexible with the times on weekends. I can take dogs for more than 20 minutes to give them more exercise and an enjoyable time. If you need your dog (s) to stay at my house overnight or during the day on weekends, I can look after them, play with them, and walk them. I have a large fenced yard.

Mac is always spoiled when he goes to Jamie and Brian’s house. He has extreme separation anxiety and Jamie and Brian are there to make sure he is comfortable. I receive regular photos showing how happy and content Mac is. Thank you again for taking such good care of our boy.

Mac and Scout both had a great stay with Jamie and Brian. This was Scout’s first stay and he was settled in and comfortable after just a few hours. Jamie and Brian’s home is set up for dogs comfort and care. Mac and Scout enjoyed running around the fenced backyard and making friends with another dog who was staying there. Jamie and Brian are our preferred Rover sitters. It’s evident how much they love caring for dogs.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Clarkson is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $49 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 293 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Clarkson. 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.
95% of sitters in Clarkson 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 Clarkson 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 Clarkson.
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 Clarkson. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Clarkson 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.
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.
