“We love David and Marcy so much! We always feel totally confident that Archie is in good hands, and they're super flexible about pickup and drop-off times. Can't recommend enough. Also their resident dog, Nuno, is a true king.”
“Vanessa was amazing ! I was away for a week for vacation and she eased my stress about leaving my Sonny. I loved that she works from home and was able to give my dog the attention he needs . She also sent me updates and pictures everyday which helped ease my anxiety. This was my first time leaving my dog with a Sitter and i am beyond pleased. I will definitely be using Vanessa's services in the future ?”
“Krystal took wonderful care of our dog, Joules, while we were away for two weeks. We were initially nervous about leaving our older dog for that long, but Krystal made the experience completely stress-free. She kept us updated regularly, gave Joules plenty of attention and long walks, and clearly cared about his well-being. We came home to a happy dog and couldn't be more pleased. We highly recommend Krystal!”
“Kecia is so wonderful and took such great care of my pup, Luna! She is communicative, kind, and attentive. Would absolutely use her again and will reco her to anyone who needs a sitter”

“I recently boarded my 5 month puppy with Juliana. This was my first time boarding my puppy so was very nervous but Juliana was very kind, professional and caring. She sent daily photo/text updates and Coco seemed to have a lot of fun with her and her family! I felt very comfortable about leaving Coco with her. Will definitely rebook in the future! 🐶😊”

“My dog is like my furry kid. He’s very special to me so whenever I have to leave him I get super anxious. Lenford eased that anxiety. He was very warm and welcoming to me and my dog. He made me feel like I had nothing to worry about and that my dog was in caring hands. He’s also really communicative. He sent me lots of pictures and video to keep my updated on how my dog was doing in his care. Lenford is amazing and will be my go to from now on,”
“I used Janine for the first time, and she exceeded every expectation. She was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring, providing regular updates that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter.”
“The best sitter to book with! Xiaoying and her family are excellent and truly the sweetest! I had an overnight cat sitting service with them for a 7 nights and they sent me daily photos and videos and made sure to keep me updated! They also brought so many toys, a cat tree, and cat hideaway spots for my cat. My cat Lucki didn’t want to leave he really liked it there and it’s like his second home now😊 will definitely be rebooking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a pet sitter or boarding service! ❤️”
“Valerie had a great time staying with Rebecca and family! They sent frequent updates with pics, took her on long walks, and spent a ton of time with her in the backyard. They even gave her a toy to take home that she’s obsessed with! Will definitely be booking again.”
“Kenya was amazing with my dog Pepper. We had an out of town family reunion and Kenya was very accommodating. She has a spirit of an animal lover we felt very comfortable with her. Pepper was very warm to get and she kept me informed of how he was doing. Everything we extremely well and we are happy we chose her. We will most certainly use her services again!”
“The absolute best sitters - thank you both for always caring for Nalu like your own and always taking the time to truly understand and accept her LOL”
“Shane was great !!!! Very calming! Rocky loved her she updated me daily, remembered my little quirks about Rocky and treated him like her own. Definitely booking her again ! 😀😀😊”
“I was really anxious about boarding my fur baby, especially since we had just recently rehomed him and were putting so much effort into his training. I came across a few profiles, but Alex stood out right away. He responded quickly, came to meet Leo on his own time, and from the moment we met him, we just knew he was the right fit for our boy. It’s not easy to find someone you can truly trust with your pet, but Alex made it easy. He was so communicative, kind, and accommodating. He even kept up with the commands we were practicing with Leo, which meant so much to us. While we were away, Alex kept us updated with photos and stories, and he gave Leo such wonderful new experiences — from trips to the beach to sitting at an outdoor restaurant. Alex didn’t just take care of Leo, he went above and beyond. He gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation and showed genuine love and care for our pup. I feel so relieved and grateful knowing we’ve found not only a safe and reliable sitter, but a friend and someone Leo is truly happy with. Don’t hesitate to book Alex. He is amazing !”
“Doris and her family always take great care of Brownie as if she was their own fur baby. I can tell from the photos that Brownie is having a great time. I would not hesitate to recommend Doris as a sitter. Brownie has stayed with Doris several times now and she always comes back happy and in great shape. Thank you so much!”

There are 13,933 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Far Rockaway. About 88% of Far Rockaway 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.

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.
