“We had great communication with Shirley throughout the entire process. We did a meet and greet before the stay, and she asked thoughtful questions beforehand to really get to know our dog. During the stay, she shared lots of photos and videos, which we truly appreciated. She was also very flexible and accommodating when we had to change our plans due to the snowstorm. Highly recommend!”
“Dayanara did a great job with my pit bull Fiona! I was desperate to find a sitter for the holidays and she came through for me big time. She sent me pictures and updates throughout their visit and I could tell my little dog had a great time. Highly recommend.”
“I have a 2 year old high energy Lab. Tanu took great care of her. Plenty of activities and great care. Posted lots of pictures and videos throughout to let us know how my dog was doing. Would use Tanu next time when i need someone to dog sit. Recommend 100%”
“Vee and Steven are the best! After reading their profile we reached out and Vee met us for a meet and greet. We felt comfortable right away and felt they would be a great fit to watch our dog Uno for a week and they exceeded our expectations! She gave us a detailed updates twice a day with pictures and videos and we can tell Uno was well loved in their house. Uno came back as if he never left our watch! We would highly recommend Vee and Steven and look forward to using them again in the future.”

“Ruth-Ann and Brandon are incredible, they took such great care of my boy, he was actually a little bit sad about leaving. They sent pictures and videos of him, so I could see how happy he was. They are also two of the nicest people you could ever meet. I cannot thank them or recommend them enough. If I ever need to board my boy again, I hope that they are available.”
“Juliana is the best sitter ever!! Her and her family took care of Shea as a last minute need of support and they kept me in the know the entire process, not to mention my dog having a blast. I look forward to partnering with her again (and so does Shea) 💖💖”
“This was Timmy’s second stay with Denis and his wife, and once again, everything was absolutely perfect. Timmy stayed with them for 12 nights, and from the moment we dropped him off, it was clear he remembered them and felt comfortable right away. He was calm, relaxed, and not nervous at all, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Denis and his wife truly treat Timmy like family. They showed him so much love, care, and attention throughout his stay, and it honestly felt like he was at his second home. We knew he was in great hands the entire time. We’re so grateful to have found sitters we completely trust, and we will absolutely continue booking with them in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for kind, reliable, and attentive pet sitters.”
“I love having Churchie stay with Mingyon and her family. They are always so nice and church Always has such a great time. Thank you so much.”
“Amy and her family were absolutely incredible. My skittish mid-size terrier mix, Sammy, was very comfortable and truly well cared for. Amy and family took time to understand him, give him space to warm up, respect his feelings, and treat him like their own. We met in advance in a park for a long walk and for a home visit, all to prepare Sam and all of us. Amy provided us with daily updates and pictures. We feel so fortunate to have connected with Amy and family. We already discussed next time 😊 Love, love, love Amy, HP, and the boys. Don’t hesitate if you need a loving home for your fur baby ❤️”
“Awesome dog sitter! Sent me pictures and gave me updates everyday. I’m not sure my dog even wanted to come home after staying with them. Will definitely use them again.”

Alexa is amazing and Jack came back home very happy. From the beginning Alexa suggested and accommodated a meet and greet day, and Jack was more then happy to stay with Alexa the day of babysitting. Alexa also was more then accepting of time extensions and I also met her Dad. When Jack was dropped off they had a small sign in the door with jacks name welcoming him. Thank you Alexa!!
Jonisha has been a pleasure. This is my second experience with her. Absolutely amazing experiences! I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. She was incredibly caring, attentive, reliable, and treated my dog like her own. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my fur baby was in such loving and capable hands. Her professionalism and genuine love for animals truly stand out. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate. I will definitely be booking with her again!
A last-minute family emergency led me to Grace, and I’m so grateful it did. She happily welcomed Danny and made it a priority to ensure he would feel comfortable and happy staying with her for the weekend. She was communicative and responsive throughout, which means so much to me. Danny loved spending the weekend with Grace, and I’m simply grateful she exists!
Narly and her family is so amazing! This is our dog’s 3rd time staying with Narly for around a week and he always has the best time playing with her pups. She does a great job keeping us updated with pictures daily! Thanks for being such a lovely home away from home for our doggo and he can’t wait to visit again soon!
Tanu was wonderful with Yogi! 🐾 She was so accommodating, caring, and attentive, and Yogi clearly had such a great time with her. I also really appreciated all the pictures and videos she sent, it was so reassuring to see him happy and having fun. We would definitely book with Tanu again! ❤️
This is my third time booking with Tyler, and I’ll continue to do so! He is incredibly responsive, keeps me updated throughout the stay with photos, and, most importantly, my dog absolutely loves spending time with him. I always feel confident knowing my pup is in great hands. Highly recommend Tyler to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter!
We had a wonderful experience with Cynthia as our dog sitter! She was caring, responsible, and attentive to our dog’s needs. She kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us great peace of mind, and our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We truly appreciated her kindness and reliability and would absolutely recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!
Our dog Sadie is a bit unpredictable in her old age, but Elle never missed a beat. Elle stayed in close contact with us about how Sadie was doing and followed our instructions. She was consistently positive and patient, which really stood out, even when Sadie was a bit more work than we expected. Sadie came home happy and her usual self, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely recommend Elle for boarding and dogsitting.
Abbie was fantastic watching our dog Mongchi overnight! She sent regular videos and pictures throughout the stay, so we always felt in the loop and could tell Mongchi was happy and comfortable in her care. He even got to play with her dog Peachy, and it was so sweet seeing them become friends — Mongchi had a blast! Drop-off and pick-up were both easy and stress-free. Abbie is communicative, caring, and it's obvious she genuinely loves the dogs she watches. We felt completely at ease leaving Mongchi with her. We'll definitely be booking with Abbie again!
Ingrid and her family are great host. They hosted Max for almost 2 weeks. They have Max lots of attention and love. She sent multiple pictures and videos every day while we were away. She communicates very well and quickly. Will continue to use Ingrid for upcoming trips and maybe check ins from time to time.
10/10 doesn’t even feel like enough! She is literally the BEST dog sitter ever. You can genuinely tell how much she cares about my dog and goes above and beyond every single time. She takes him out, gives him so much love and attention, and always makes sure he’s happy and comfortable. I never have to worry about him when he’s with her because I know he’s in the best hands. I’m so grateful I found someone I can trust with my baby. Highly, highly recommend her!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Elmont is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $43 and $67 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 13,631 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 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.
94% of sitters in Elmont 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 Elmont 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 Elmont.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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.
