“By far the best option on here! I’ve now taken my little Pomeranian Woody back to back vacations I’ve been on and it’s been great. Plenty of updates are provided and my dog was truly treated like one of the family all week long! Definitely recommend and will be returning!”
“These guys were great! Received a few photos every day so I could relax knowing he was in good hands. When I picked him up, he went back into their house and back to them which told me he was super comfortable there and really enjoyed his stay! Thank you so much for the wonderful treats and care that you gave to our little Ollie!”
“Loved booking with Brittni, very easy process. She was available any time I had a question or just wanted to check in on Max. He loved it there snd I’m happy I found someone that he is comfortable with so that I don’t have to be anxious while away.”
“Ronda is an amazing dog sitter!! She was friendly with us as well as the dog. I felt confident after the play meet because she let our good dog kairi run around in every room and outside. The house was very clean, freshly scented and safe for dogs. We were sent pictures everyday without asking or bothering her. We had no complaints for a whole 9 days on vacation to California. We will always contact her for future dog sitting no matter the duration. We trust her and she’s a good, nice, modern, casual, and sweet person. Easy to talk with and recommend her for sure upon being strangers. Ronda watched our pitbull with confidence with all the true information about Kairi. It worked out. Thank you so much!!”
“Jeanne is the best! I left my two Dalmatians with Jeanne over the holidays while my husband and I traveled to California. She sent us photos everyday of our doggies and responds very quickly through text! Highly recommend Jeanne! This is the second time we have left them with her and will continue in the future! Thank you for taking care of my babies so well Jeanne!❤️”
“Maya took the very best care of our pups. She helped us out last minute and treated our dogs like they were her own. They had a great time and we got lots of updates and pictures throughout their stay. Highly recommend.”
“Amanda always does an amazing job with our Sophie. Sophie loves Amanda and her children! Thank you for the wonderful care and attention to details to make stay comfortable and loving! We are extremely lucky have you care for our Sophie!”
“Jennifer is top notch! My dogs were picked up happy and healthy! She took them on several walks and kept us updated with pictures. She is definitely dependable and trustworthy and I wouldn't hesitate to leave them there again! Thanks Jennifer!”
“Kash had a wonderful time staying with Briana, her family and his new friend Duke! Briana sent several pictures daily and kept up updated on his eating, playing and sleeping routine. We knew he was getting the love and attention as if he was home.”
“Katherine was an amazing sitter! She made sure to send updates on how my cat was doing as well as pictures and she responded very quickly if I had any questions. Will definitely be rebooking !”
“I am so critical of who watches my pets. This is the first time that I have ever boarded my two mastiffs. That being said, I HIGHLY recommend Arya. The quality I like the best is that our pets' welfare and comfort seem to be the first priority with him, above all else. He cares about what is best for my pets. Together with his knowledge and experience, I feel I can trust him completely. Excellent communication gave me piece of mind knowing all is well while we are away. I have every confidence in Arya and enthusiastically recommend him.”
“Christina was so good to our boy, Owen! We booked a last minute snowboarding trip and we were lucky enough to find Christina. She sent us so many photos and updates. Even gave us an info sheet about how he did while he stayed with her. We will definitely be booking again!”
“She was awesome. Very friendly and her dog was very playful and friendly. Her family is awesome with animals and my dog loved them. She sent photos while we were gone of my dog playing with the others. Would highly recommend her”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Cortland on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 143 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Cortland. 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 Cortland 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 Cortland 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 Cortland 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 Cortland.
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 Cortland 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.
