“If you are looking for someone to look after your small dogs, then look no further! Claire is amazing with dogs, especially small ones. I received numerous updates per day, along with accompanying pictures. She is very patient with older dogs that are set in their ways. We also got stuck on our trip for an extra and Claire was able to handle the request easily for me.”
“Denise was so patient with our anxious little dog and her updates were so fun and cute. We felt great knowing Charlie was spoiled while we spent a night away.”
“Destiny was flexible and accommodating to my schedule. I liked the perodic update photos of Snowball eating,relaxing,going on walks, and playing with her dog Max. Her home is very dog friendly and I would definitely rebook.”
“Prince had a great time with Joel & Crystal H. They made it all happen super easy and they were very sweet. We're going to utilize these angels everytime we come to Eugen Oregon. ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗”
“Maddy is the best sitter! She was so welcoming to Milo and took such good care of him! He came back happy, healthy and clearly having had a blast with Maddy and her family. Would absolutely rebook!”
“Diane was great, very transparent about her services and asking for permission if she can watch other dogs while sitting if something came up. I really appreciated the constant photos and update she sent on my Mazzy girl, because it was a 9 day stay.”
“Brittany was an excellent sitter. My dog Nova immediately liked her for her calm and warm energy and she enjoyed a very peaceful two days. Brittany was excellent with communication throughout the stay and was understanding of my last minute booking. As a fellow Rover sitter, I would highly recommend!”
“Erin did an exceptional job of communicating with me about how Mitzi was doing during their first time together. Without my asking- Erin sent photos of Mitzi with a brief comment. I will definitely use Erin again if the need arises.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The care Tessa and her family provide is wonderful. I get updates and photos every day and my dog is always so happy and tired once he’s picked up! Will always recommend!”
“Dylan and his fam were great! Oakley came home happy and relaxed. We felt she was well cared for and we received frequent pics and updates on doggy activities.”
“Amy & Robert are great pup sitters, and Oakland is a wonderful doggie host 🐾 lots of communication, care and kindness. I think Maple is a bit sad to be home 😆 We will definitely use them again! Thank you!”
“I recently boarded my two small dogs with Ying for a long weekend. From the many pictures and videos sent to me from Ying, I could see that my dogs were well taken care of and they seemed happy. I would certainly use YING’s boarding services again.”
“We are so glad we found Amanda and Matthew, and can highly recommend them. They kept us updated with pictures and videos of our pup, Wiley. The only problem was, Wiley looked like he was having so much fun, we figured he wouldn’t ever want to leave! 😎”
“Riley had so much fun at Sabrina’s. I boarded him for 3 nights and 4 days. Sabrina sent me photos every day of Riley playing with the other dogs. Although he was happy to see me I think he is depressed that he is not playing with his buddies.”
“Angeline was amazing! She sent pictures and kept us updated with how our dog Bambi was doing. She cleaned all our stuff we packed for her too: blankets, bowls, etc. She has a really nice space and backyard, and Bambi had so much fun!”
“Rocko had an absolute blast with Katelyn and her family. I'm so grateful for her endless patience with Rocko's 1-year-old-puppy energy, for her flexibility with my last-minute trip changes, and for her consistent communication throughout Rocko's stay. Look no further for your pet's care; Katelyn is the best!”
“Susana was fabulous with Daisy! I received daily updates with a sweet photo of how she was doing including lots of walks and cuddling. Susana is well versed in dog behavior so she was able to comfortably have Daisy along with a couple of other dogs and monitor their behavior closely during her stay. Daisy was well cared for and seemed very happy during her stay. I would absolutely book Susana again!”
“We count ourselves very lucky to have stumbled upon Christina and her excellent services on Rover App! We needed dog care for a six day period to fly back east for a funeral. She was available, responded immediately, and was easy to communicate with. Our dog was pampered in her home with comfort, affection, and treats! Best of all she took our dog on adventure outings twice a day to frolic off-leash with other pups, play ball, and swim! I received multiple photos each day of our dog living her best life! It was like an unplanned summer vacation for our precious Quinn, and we’ll be using her services again. Thank you, Christina! Well worth the money for peace of mind.”
“Molly usually goes to doggy daycare when I go out of town and staff says she seems sad and prefers to be alone. For at least a day after getting her home she won't eat and obsessively follows me around. This time she was happy and excited when I got there. She's eating fine, and has been contently sleeping. I think she enjoyed hanging out with people instead of a bunch of other dogs. I greatly appreciate Cecilia making Molly part of their family while I was out of town. In a few weeks she's staying with her again and it will be nice not to have to worry about whether she's having fun or not.”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Elmira on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 296 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Elmira. 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.
97% of Elmira 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 Elmira 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 Elmira 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 Elmira.
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 Elmira 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 OR 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.
