“Diana was amazing with my pup, Louis! He had an absolute blast — especially getting to run around outside and play with the other dogs and kids, which is such a treat for him since he doesn’t get that kind of freedom in Manhattan. I could tell he was well cared for and totally in his element. Communication was great, with tons of photos daily, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such a loving, fun environment. I’d strongly recommend Diana to anyone looking for a thoughtful and responsible sitter — we’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Sara and her family are wonderful! Our dog Ember has stayed with her many times over the last few years and always has a great time. Sara sends frequent updates and I always feel comfortable knowing that Ember is getting amazing care. Thank you Sara :)”
“Wenxu & her husband are amazing. They watched Enzo for the second time and accommodated us due to an emergency. I will continue to use them in the future & highly recommend. Enzo loves them and he love getting many pictures through the day/stay ❤️”
“Luna had a great time they took excellent care of her and we would definitely be using them again in the future. We felt at ease we received photos all the time of our pup which put our mind at ease”

“Sal’s 3rd stay with Theresa. He literally pulls me to the door when I drop him off. She is fantastic and Sal gets plenty of exercise with her. I will be back again”
“Kelly could not have been more communicative and kind. She took such good care of our pup, and he came home exhausted (which is what we hoped for since he’s so high energy). She kept us up to date on all necessary things during our pups stay, and send videos and pictures too. We will definitely consider booking again in the future!”
“Just an incredible experience. Michelle was a pleasure to have dog sit Hero. She sent tons of pictures and videos and also gave Hero a bath! I would recommend her to anyone. 10/10.”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding Chloe with John and his wife. They are lovely people, their home is immaculate, and it is obvious they love dogs and enjoy caring for them. Their own dog is very well behaved and got along well with ours. We highly recommend John and would certainly board Chloe with him again in the future.”
“Megan and her family did a fantastic job taking care of my senior dog. She sent pictures daily, was honest about when Bailey didn’t finish a meal, and didn’t mind answering any questions I had. She made Bailey feel comfortable and loved which was so important to me. Thank you Megan!”
“Jodie was wonderful! My dog Juno had a blast in her company and the other dogs in her care. Jodie was flexible about scheduling since I was traveling which I really appreciated. She also gifted us some goodies, which is so so kind :) Definitely a great place to send your cuddle bug!”
“Kristen was very accommodating to our shy rescue pup, Maizie. She got all the attention and was well looked after and I have booked Kristen to watch her for another stay.”
“Marcia was great. My dog felt totally at home and she treated my dog as if it was hers. She has plenty of running space in the backyard and doesn’t kennel the dogs. Also sends frequent photos so you can see how your dog is. Will continue to use Marcia.”
About: My dog Winnie is 17, so I’ve had lots of experience as a pet carer! Even though Winnie is a small dog, I have experience pet sitting and walking large dogs. I also love cats and have welcomed them into my home to cat sit over the last several years. I work as an independent artist and bartender, so I have a flexible schedule that gives me availability to take care of your furry friend or feline when you’re working! I am available morning, evening and night on weekdays and morning and afternoons on the weekends. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet by following their routine closely and giving them plenty of attention, care, and supervision. I understand how important trust is when caring for someone’s pet, and I treat every animal with patience, responsibility, and love.
“Karishma was amazing! We left our brand new puppy with her for 3 nights. She texted and sent videos and pictures constantly and made us feel super comfortable. She and her family adored our pup and treated him like their own. We will definitely be using Karishma again!”
“We cannot rave enough about our experience with Danielle! We used her for our Mastiff puppy while we went on vacation and we were worried because he was a puppy on how he would be with being sat for the first time. We met with Danielle prior to the stay and our first impression was terrific. We had such a great piece of mind while we were gone. She sent multiple pictures daily and likewise kept us informed on how he was doing. We could tell that he thoroughly enjoyed his stay at her home and it was a great experience for him to be with other older dogs! Danielle was also so very patient & accommodating with us getting stuck on our trip longer due to the weather! We would/will recommend her to anyone we know and if we need a sitter in the future, we know who we will ask first! Thank you to Danielle and her family for treating our Otto as one of their own. ?You can't ask for more than that!”
“Sandy was wonderful. This was my very first time using Rover and a sitter outside of my family or friends and couldn’t have gone better. Looking forward to using Sandy again! Thank you! :)”

Once I met Alexis, her son and fur babies I knew I met someone who would take care of my dog as her own. So, thank you Alexis, Trip, Max and Snoopy! Blossom had a ball and met some new friends. I would absolutely use Alexis again because her home is geared toward doing what she loves. It’s very evident that’s taking care of animals.
We had such a great experience with our dog sitter! They watched our dog overnight and did an amazing job. Our pup was well cared for, and happy the whole time. They were reliable, caring, and kept us updated throughout the stay. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their dog!
I had an amazing experience with Karishma. Leaving my pup is never easy but she made the entire process stress free, was so kind, caring and kept me updated by sending videos every hour, which gave me so much peace of mind. My puppy looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for the whole time. Her home was clean, safe, and a great environment for dogs. I truly appreciated the love and attention she gave him and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. I will definitely book with her again!
Nav is our go to pet sitter for our elderly husky. We have booked Nav so many times for when we travel that may dog gets excited when he pull up to her house. She sends many photos and videos during his stay, and our dog looks happy and relaxed. We are lucky to have found Nav !
Ms. Alicia was able to take me in on such short notice and she did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Shadow! She sent pics/videos to keep me updated on how Shadow was doing during the day, and also when I had a request, she would have no problem doing them. Her own dog, Ocean, also helped Shadow get accustomed to being around other dogs, so that was great as well! With her spacious backyard and amazing personality, I would 100% recommend and will be coming again in the future:)

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Dix Hills is $58 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $48 and $73 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 of October 2026, there are 11,338 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Dix Hills. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Dix Hills 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 Dix Hills home-away-from-home, 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 Dix Hills.
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 Dix Hills 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 , 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 .
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.
