“My pug Charlie had another wonderful time with Abbie and Peachy. Charlie feels really safe with Abbie even though she is a little anxious and Peachy is a great friend that helps Charlie to stay active and socialized especially in this cold weather. Outstanding hosts!”
“Michele was absolutely amazing with my dog! From the start, she was communicative, attentive, and genuinely caring. She kept me updated the entire time with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Her kids were completely in love with Arepa, and it was clear he felt comfortable, happy, and so well cared for. Michele truly treated him like her own. I would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter. Thank you so much, Michele!”
“This was my first time booking with Vanessa, and it went great! We met beforehand so Maverick could get to know her and her home, which have me peace of mind. Maverick loved playing with Oreo and Moreno, and had access to the backyard all the time. Vanessa kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout his stay. I could tell he was happy and well cared for. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Shirley is the best! She is responsible, kind, and very communicative. We appreciated all the photos she shared and took comfort knowing that our puppy was in great hands with Shirley. You can tell that she is a true animal lover. Highly recommended!!”
“Melissa was so great with our Rory! She sent frequent updates with pictures which showed how well taken care of (and happy) our dog was with her. Drop off and pick up were a breeze too. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Tokyo’s stay was amazing! He was cared for with so much love, and he really enjoyed spending time with Margarita & Cristian. I highly recommend their services. Thank you for everything — we’ll see you again soon!”
“I am so appreciative for the incredibly wonderful warm care Tanu gave Meli. Tanu and her two terrific sons were attentive, loving, and treated Meli like their own. Tanu made sure Meli got plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddle time. Tanu worked hard to make it seem like Meli was also on vacation! It is such a relief to know someone so responsible and kind was taking care of my dog. I will certainly use Tanu to care for Meli... (more at r.rover.com/hCMSHg )”
“Jana was an excellent caretaker for our shiba inu. When we met her we immediately had the sense that we were meeting someone highly intelligent and empathetic, which are precisely the qualities we look for when seeking out someone to take care of our favorite family member. Jana communicated with us consistently throughout the week she looked after our girl, and put an obviously high amount to effort into making our girl feel happy, safe, and loved. We always feel high degrees of stress when we leave our dog behind, but I can’t think of anyone that could have put us more at ease than Jana. Thank you Jana!”
“I can’t say enough good things about V! It’s always hard leaving Bluey behind, but they made it so much easier by sending regular updates and photos. My dog was clearly happy, well-cared for, and relaxed when I got home. Highly recommend!”
“Narly is a fantastic dog sitter who I am so thankful I recently found on Rover! She cared for my dog, Millie, while I was away on a work trip and she did a wonderful job. Throughout my dog’s stay with her, she provided me daily updates that included numerous pictures and videos. I will absolutely be using Narly again and I’m confident my dog cannot wait to go back to her house soon! :)”
“I would like to start by saying, in general I am a skeptical person who does not trust people with my dog because like others, my dog is my child. With that being said, I needed a dog sitter short notice while I went on a family vacation to Africa and prior arrangements fell through. Hesitant, I knew that a sitter would be best for me because I didn’t like the idea of boarding him at a facility. My dog weighs 4 lbs and is still a puppy, he seeks love and companionship. While scrolling through Rover I found Diane and I am happy I did. She was amazing in every aspect. She kept me posted about my dog with text, videos, and pictures several times throughout the day. She gave him sooooo much love and affection, responded fast and answered any questions I might have. She was very accommodating to me and Kobe. She treated him like he was her dog. She even sent him off with a gift. I trust her so much and will be sure to book with her over and over again. Thank you so much Diane. If you are looking a for someone who will love and provide good, safe care for your dog please book Diane.”
“I can’t recommend Samantha enough! From the moment we met, I knew my dog was in amazing hands. She treated my pup like family — giving them tons of love, attention, and care. While I was away, she kept me updated with regular messages and adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog came home happy, calm, and clearly well taken care of. It’s such a relief knowing there’s someone I can fully trust with my fur baby. I’ll absolutely be booking with Samantha again. Thank you for everything!”
“Brandon and Ruth-Ann did awesome! Just to give background I’m shipping my dogs overseas and me and my family had to leave before the dogs. They went above and beyond and made sure they got to their flight in time with everything they needed. They were very friendly and flexible 10/10!”
“We had such a wonderful experience! Dior felt right at home from the moment she arrived and was so well cared for during her stay. We loved getting updates and could tell she was receiving lots of attention, love, and even some extra treats. Especially because Dior was in heat we were so happy she was comfortable. The thoughtful gift keychain was such a sweet surprise and really showed how much they care about both pets and their owners. We came home to a happy pup and couldn't ask for more. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog!”
“Chris took excellent care of my two puppies and was prompt with his answering of questions. I will happily make use of Chris’s services in the future and I would wholeheartedly recommend him without reservations.”
“Karina took great care of our fur baby during our vacation. We received pictures and updates multiple times a day. Karina is highly recommended and we’ll definitely book her again!”
“Amazing! Tyler is super reliable and trustworthy. I booked the night before and he was very accommodating. Pluto really enjoyed his time. Tyler took him on several walks and gave him lots of love. I received photos every three hours and could see how much comfortable Pluto was. I would highly recommend you book with Tyler!”
“Juliana was amazing with my pup Dora! This was the first time I had left her with a sitter, and Juliana took care to listen to / assuage all of my concerns beforehand, in addition to keeping me posted throughout the stay with updates and photos! Dora seems to have had a lovely time with her — I wholeheartedly recommend Juliana!”

Vanessa was amazing . This was my first time leaving my pup and I was super nervous . Vanessa put my mind at ease while I was away and sent pictures and videos to help me from being apart from my dog Jax. I would 1000 percent recommend her and will be using her for future bookings .
Grace is a thoughtful sitter. I felt safe to have left my fur buddy with her for a longer stay. During that stay my pet got sick and Grace was fully involved and did everything necessary to get the care it needed. She was also proactively communicating thought the emergency. I’m glad that my pet was in her hands when this happened. I fully recommend her services. Thank you Grace!
Tanu is great! She took good care of our 6 year old Ace for a day. She loves your pet like it’s her own. Ace is picky with his eating habits and spoiled I should say, but she was very concerned when he skipped his meal. She followed all our instructions and sent us pictures of Ace more often than we expected. He was very happy at her place. I would use her services again without any hesitation and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for an excellent sitter for their furry. Thank you so much Tanu for taking care of Ace!
Elle is the best dog sitter we could ever ask for. We are so happy we found her. She loves Kiki like she was her own. Elle sends us daily pictures and communicates with us constantly. She is very good at what she does. We will be using her again in the very near future.
Narly was a fantastic host for my little furbaby. She sent multiple pictures of her daily and kept her comfortable outdoors weather permitting and inside during the heatwave. I felt completely comfortable with my pet in her care and would use her services again!
Gracie was phenomenal! She was incredibly communicative, kept us updated throughout our entire vacation, and took such great care of our Pepper. Knowing Pepper was in good hands gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared for her and treated her like one of her own. We are so grateful for everything she did and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend! 🐾💕
Another great vacation for Frodo with Britany - she’s the best! She sent daily photos and videos without me even having to ask, and I never worried about Frodo during his stay. He looked like he was having the best time, and I honestly don’t think he wanted to leave when we picked him up! We can’t wait for Frodo to stay with her again in the future.
Kara was an absolute joy to work with. From the initial meet-and-greet to the thoughtful pictures and updates she sent throughout the stay, she made the entire experience stress-free and reassuring. Knowing my pet was safe and well cared for gave me complete peace of mind. She was definitely the right choice, and I will certainly book with her again!
After almost two years of not seeing my baby, Ingrid and her family welcomed her back into their home with open arms! My girl had a few new changes to her health since they last saw her and they didn’t even miss a beat with accommodating her and caring for her just as they did before. Ingrid sent lots of pictures and videos and my baby was visibly happy staying with her and her family for the weekend. Can’t thank them enough for giving me the peace of mind that she’ll be taken care of the same way I would take care of her while I was away! Ingrid will absolutely treat your pet like her own!! Thank you again!
An excellent experience. I was comfortable on vacation knowing my baby was in great hands. I got a picture of my Stormi☔️ everyday. She looked happy romping around the huge backyard. When I went to pick her up she wanted to stay. That’s the best sign of a great time.
Once again, I was worry and stress free leaving Lucas in the care of Caitlyn and family. They are so kind and caring with Lucas. He is particular and has specific needs which they are able to accommodate. I received updates, pics and stayed informed of his care during our time away. Thank you so much for taking excellent care of my furbaby :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Elmont on Rover is $55.5 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 13,651 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Elmont. 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.
95% of Elmont 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 Elmont 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 Elmont 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 Elmont.
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 Elmont 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 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.
