Susan was awesome! My husband is extremely particular about the dog. I’m actually shocked he agreed to leave him with a stranger. It could not have gone any better! Susan took Jack for lots of walks and she and her husband even took him on the boat! We got lots of pictures and updates on how he was doing. We definitely hope she’s available to watch Jack next time we travel!

Julia was awesome with our two girls. It’s hard enough to leave them and it helps to know they are loved and in good hands while we were away. Thank you, Julia!

She is so kind and patient with our dog! We knew she was the right one as soon as I saw the house skies in the pictures as we have a Husky. We would highly recommend her!

All good! Thank you for taking care of Steely, our quirky and a bit anxious boy. He hung out with Danielle and a good-natured golden doodle. Sounds like it was a perfect pairing that calmed him down and brought out his playful side. Thanks for everything, Danielle!

Becca took great care of Avery. She's a very energetic terrier with "little dog" syndrome and I worry about how well she will get along with larger dogs. Becca had the foresight to have a separate room prepared for Avery's meals, so there wouldn't be any altercations over mealtime, allowed the two dogs to get acquainted under supervision so they could set their own boundaries, then kept in touch with me & sent pictures to show the two dogs playing happily together. Avery came home happy & well loved and I was able to relax and enjoy my cousin's wedding. All in all a great experience.

We were fortunate to find Shannon. We have a somewhat special needs dog (Sandy) and didn’t think we could find an appropriate sitter. But Sandy quickly accepted Shannon and her two beautiful dogs, Lex and Captain Black. We were able to enjoy a worry free trip knowing Sandy was receiving excellent care. We highly recommend Shannon and will use her service in the future.

Michele (and her family) took care of our dog really well. She gave us updates of how Rocky is doing and was very accommodating when I had to change the drop off and pick up times last minute. We highly recommend Michele.

Wonderful experience for both us and our dog. She was kind and welcoming making our girl feel right at home. She also was a wonderful communicator. Her picture updates and videos made me feel at ease while we were out of town. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Geraldene!! Her care and compassion for our Luna was top notch!! Highly recommend!

About: I have a ton of experience pet sitting and checking in on pets throughout the day as well as dog walking. I also have a lot of experience working with senior aged animals. I am very confident in my skills and would love the opportunity to help out anyone who needs it. I am super flexible with hours and always available. I am currently on summer break from school so right now I have all the time in the world. Once September starts I will have to go back to school but I only have a few classes on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday so I would only be away from, the animals for two hours at most. Caring for pets in their home is my preferred way to do it because they are familiar with the environment. I have experience watching pets in all types of and different types of outdoor access. So even if there is no screened in fence, I am able to deal with that.

Barbara and her family were wonderful. We left our elderly dog with them for just over two weeks. Barbara sent plenty of photos as well as updates on our dog's activity. She also has a nice big fenced back yard for our dog to play in. This is the first time we have used this service and we highly recommend Barbara. We will definitely use her again when we need to. Thanks Barbara for taking such great care of our dog!

Last minute trip out of town and Keith was able to watch our dog. Very professional. Discussed her routine and likes/dislikes to make sure she was as comfortable as possible. Very flexible on pickup time, which saved us a trip. We will use him again without hesitation. Thanks Keith!

FAQs for Boarding - Cortland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Cortland on Rover is $27.75 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 830 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Cortland. About 93% of Cortland sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

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.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 IL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
