“This was our second time using Sarah, and will definitely be using her again! I loved seeing the photos and daily updates she gave for our boy Ozzy, and I was at ease knowing he was getting so much love, walks, and play time.”
“I had a fantastic experience with Carol. She took excellent care of my two dogs, providing constant updates that kept me at ease throughout. Her attentiveness and communication made the entire experience comfortable and worry-free.Highly recommend! A wonderful setter.”
“Sierra was so sweet with my baby! She sent me pictures and updates every day and she even helped me out in a pinch and let me extend my reservation! I would absolutely book with her again and encourage anyone else too!!🥰”
“Erica was wonderful with our puppy bleu! She took amazing care of him and updated us with photos of him everyday. She even taught him a new trick!! Bleu was happy as could be when we picked him up. I would highly recommend her.”
“Took excellent care of our dog. Was very accommodating with the time. Great outdoor space and very friendly well behaved dog also there. Would definitely recommend and use again!”
“Dan and his family were excellent dog sitters for our pup who stayed with them for 3 nights. She is 7 months old and this was our first time leaving her with anyone so I was very nervous. We did a meet and greet and Dan and his family made us feel comfortable right away. During her stay, he was very responsive to texts and gave multiple updates about what they did and even sent pics! They have a nice background where our girl was able to run around and play and their house is very spacious and clean. They took her on multiple long walks during her stay and when we picked her up on Sunday and brought her home I could not believe how exhausted she was! She’s a puppy with lots of energy so to see her passed out means she must’ve had a great time getting lots of attention and exercise! I definitely would not hesitate to have Dan dog sit again for us and I’m grateful to know I now have someone that she & I both trust & feel comfortable with. Thanks again to Dan & his wonderful family!”
“Erica was the best! My dog is a rescue and a bit timid and Erica was able to bond with her and she had a great stay. Also, Erica put me at ease sending many photos and videos of our Tilly while we were on vacation. Definitely will rebook with Erica again.”
“Anthony did a great job taking care of my pup. She can be shy and fearful in new situations and Anthony did a great job to keep her calm and comfortable. She enjoyed playing with his dogs, Yoki and Canelo. I enjoyed receiving updates and pictures of my pup while I was away which helped me feel at ease. Anthony is calm, reliable and welcoming. I plan to use his services again when I need them.”
“Finn had a great time and was treated like a king. It was our first time using Rover and our experience was great. Danielle made us feel comfortable at our meet and greet and leaving our Finn in her care. We look forward to booking with Danielle again!”
“Kiara & Yves, did such an amazing job with my little kitty. She was so well cared for and the sitter was super responsive sending many nice updates and photos of Lottie. I would recommend their services to anyone who was looking for a sitter!”
“This was our first time leaving our puppy. We were a little nervous. When we meet Courtney she made us feel very comfortable. Our dog loved her dogs immediately. They got along great. Courtney sent daily updates, pictures and videos. We definitely would recommend her and will have her watch Myles anytime we need someone.”
“I’m so grateful she accepted my dog last minute on the same day. She took amazing care of him and treated him like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving, reliable hands. We’ll be back!! Highly recommend!”
“We left our 2 dogs with Annalisa for 2 and a half weeks while away overseas. It was our first time having to leave them with someone other than family or friends and we were definitely nervous. No need to worry though. The dogs had a great time at her house. Our bigger dog especially had a blast playing with her dog. We have a smaller dog that doesn’t play quite the same as someone his size so he loves to get the chance to play with a dog that can match his energy. Our little dog (Cavalier) was taken excellent care of, being kept clean and tangle free. I especially appreciate that since I was exhausted from our trip and didn’t have the energy to spend half the day grooming her when we got back. She kept us updated on them during our trip which was also appreciated since keeping up with a busy schedule and time changes made it a little harder to keep messaging her for updates. We would definitely recommend her for boarding and would use her services again!”
“What a great experience. We have never used the over night service before but will definitely be doing it again. Jordan and Nathan were wonderful and were so great to our Winnie. I am pretty sure she didn’t want to come home bc she had doggie friends at there house. They will be our only family we use for as long as they let us. Highly recommend. Thanks again.”
“Becky was very warm and inviting to Nacho into her home. Becky’s space is cute. Her dogs and 2 cats were just as nice to Nacho. I enjoyed the updated and prompt responses to my inquiries. I would highly recommend Becky to watch your dogs or cats”
“Emmy was awesome and super caring with Brownie. She immediarely welcomed him and made him feel at home. Her home has a really nice backyard with plenty of space for dogs. I know Brownie had a great time with Emmy and her family!”
“No non-sense pet sitting. My dog was very well taken care of, got to play with other dogs and run around the yard. I got updates, pictures, and videos on a regular basis. Would highly recommend!”
“Mindy and her family were wonderful with my Livi! I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing she was loved and cared for. I highly recommend Mindy and will definitely use her again!”

Stacey was super easy to communicate with and even allowed us to do a meet and greet with her dogs before we booked! Delilah was in great hands and we really appreciated Stacey being so flexible with drop off/pick up given our travel changes because of the weather! We would definitely recommend Stacey and wouldn’t hesitate to leave Delilah with her again!
Melissa and Gregory were incredible! This was our first time using Rover and they put us immediately at ease. They welcomed our rambunctious puppy into their home with open arms, making us feel confident that he would be well taken care of. He had some tummy troubles going on when we had to leave and they were so understanding, telling us not to worry. He made a mess in his crate one night because of this and they were so understanding, not bothered at all. They cooked up his brat diet (ground beef and rice) for several days until his stomach was working better. Leo came back to us healthy and happy. I highly recommend Melissa and Greg - they are just super!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in East Amherst on Rover is $43.05 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 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 339 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in East Amherst. About 90% of East Amherst 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 NY 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.
