“I have used Rover for many years now and Polina has been the best. Between the fast responses, last minute confirmed bookings for my pup and the amount of love and attention he gets while in her care goes unmatched. I would recommend her to everyone and I will continue to use her for all my bookings moving forward!”
“Christine & Matthew were great! Easy to book with and sent pictures of our girl enjoying her time with their kid! Bonnie left happy and it was a relief not having to worry about her on our quick trip.”
“Yakelin took such good care of Moose. Moose came out of her house with a big smile on his face. Yakelin is very friendly and easy to work with. We’ll be sure to be booking again next time we head out of town. Much appreciated!”
“Sam is an incredible sitter! She was welcoming during the meet and greet in her back yard and allotted ample time for Carmella to become familiar with the outdoor space and one of her dogs. Carmella was set up with her own cozy room but preferred to be more social. Sam also created a photo album where she uploaded videos and pictures daily so I could see how Carmella was getting along. Sam knew Carmella had a recent birthday and let her pick out a new toy, which is so kind and thoughtful. She creates an environment where dogs can relax independently or with other dogs/people as the dog chooses. She caters to the dogs in a way that would make any human jealous in the best way. I'm definitely happy to have found Sam and will absolutely be reaching out to her for future stays.”
“Erix was so helpful in allowing a last minute stay for our dog. Our dog can be energetic and Erix was confident in his abilities to care for him, which was so appreciated. We'd certainly trust Erix services in the future! Thank you again, Erix!”
“Jose was absolutely amazing with Spoons! Spoons clearly loved him and had the best time going on runs and adventures with him. Jose even went above and beyond, and took Spoons to the pet store when I forgot his favorite toy. He sent me tons of pictures and videos and checked in every day, which gave me so much peace of mind. It made me so happy to see how comfortable, happy, and well-cared for Spoons was. I’ll definitely be booking with Jose again in the future! Highly recommend!”
“Jocelyn ha been amazing! She is very responsive and keeps me informed all the way thru each pet- sitting experience with photos and texts throughout the day. She is so loving with my girl and always takes such good care of her! Highly recommend!!”
“Staci took good care of my Bella while I was away for two weeks. She always responded promptly to my messages, and sent photos every few days to update me with Bella’s activities. Thanks Staci!”
“Jenna and her husband were great. They worked around my crazy schedule to get my pup out there, and we're more than accommodating when I asked to pick him up early because I missed him! The house was a nice space and well kept, and the yard was a super nice large space for the boys to rhomp. They were both really friendly and great with my pup, making my feel as ease to leave him with them. And their pup and mine got along really well, so that was a bonus that he had a buddy for the week! It was also really nice that I got pictures all week of the boys playing and chilling together. All around excellent experience, I can't say enough good things to say how pleased I was with everything. I would certainly look Jenna up again to sit for my pup! Thank you!!”
“We feel quite fortunate to have met Chelsea and Sam. They took wonderful care of Maizy and made sure to send us daily updates to let us know how well she was doing. Our dog is small and she had a great time playing with their 2 small dogs. Thank you so much!!”
“Angela was so wonderful with our dog. Angela went out of her way to make sure our dog was well cared for and that all her needs were met. I would absolutely recommend Angela!”
“My dogs stayed with Bonnie for 2 nights. She was extremely responsive and took good care of my pups! She was also flexible with my changing itinerary. So grateful to have found her!”
“Booked last minute and was very accommodating. I needed a day sitter for my 2 labs and received pictures/ updates thought the day. My dogs had a great day and were well cared for. Would definitely recommend and book again in the future.”
“Cassidy saved my life with a last minute booking for a 6 day boarding for my 2 year old Dutch Shepherd, Maple! I received pictures and videos daily, which my family and I enjoyed throughly. I was so relieved to find a trustworthy person and facility that did more than just feed and walk my dog twice each day. Cassidy’s expertise and experience with Dutch Shepherds was also a huge plus, given how high energy Dutch Shepherds are known to be. I will definitely be booking again in the future! Thanks Cassidy!”
“This was my first time boarding Coda with Ellen and John and I am so happy I did! I was nervous leaving her in an unfamiliar environment but with daily photo and message updates, I knew she was in good hands. Communication was excellent and I would not hesitate to book again.”
About: I am from a very rural town so I've been around animals all my life. Growing up we had 2 cats and a large dog that were primarily my responsibility as my siblings are much younger than me. I worked at an office that had 2 dogs and MANY foster cats amd kittens that I helped take of. I have also pet sit my friend's large dog whenever she goes away for the weekend or for a vacation. I have previous experience here on Rover caring for an elderly large breed dog with limited mobility. I have also taken a veterinary science course and am very comfortable having to administer medications or treatments that are needed. I'm currently working part time in Binghamton. I'm in town Sunday-Wednesday every week and am willing to be flexible on the weekends. I work in an office downtown near Court St Mondays and Tuesdays 9-5 with an hour break where I can do checkins or short walks. I can also adjust the schedule slightly if needed. Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays I am typically out of town, but that's not always the case. I'm always open to talk through my schedule on a case by case basis! I'm very open to instruction. I think owners know their pets and their routine best, so just let me know how you want the visit to look and I will make it happen!
“Eden is amazing! She took great care for our puppy over Christmas. I didn’t even have to ask for photos or updates, Eden was quick to provide them. She made us feel at ease while away knowing our pup was in good hands.”
“Amanda was amazing! She came to the rescue when our sitter had to cancel, last minute. Amanda provided updates, with pictures, which was great. We immediately felt comfortable and knew our dog was in great hands. We joked that he probably didn’t want to come home. We will absolutely be using Amanda again. She was a joy to work with!”

Ashley was amazing with Coal! She went above and beyond from the moment of drop-off, taking plenty of time to learn his mannerisms and make him feel comfortable. She kept me updated throughout his stay, which gave me great peace of mind. I would highly recommend Ashley to anyone!
Felt very comfortable sending my dog to them for the weekend. They were very easy to communicate with and sent photos each day. My dog got plenty of time to play with others and a comfy place to rest. They also were very flexible and accommodating when I needed to change the time!
As always, Elsie had a wonderful overnight visit with Duncan and Joan. But this time was unique, as we needed to book at the last minute. The family was flexible regarding drop-off and pick-up times despite preparing to leave for vacation on that same morning after the overnight. We appreciated so much your kind assistance in working with us on the scheduling. Thank you, Joan, Duncan (and sister Anna). Elsie is looking forward to future belly rubs from you! We appreciated so much

The average cost of Dog Boarding in East Syracuse is $55 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $72 per night.

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.
98% of sitters in East Syracuse 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 East Syracuse 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 East Syracuse.
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 East Syracuse 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.
