“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,”
“Woody's 1st time with Grace. He was a little shy at first because he's not used to being with other dogs. He eventually got used to it. He was there for 3-4 days. He was sad leaving her. All in all I think he had a great time with her.”
“Anton came through for me with a super last-min request and was great with Alfie. He took him to the park to burn off energy, sent plenty of photos, and Alfie was happily tired when I picked him up. Highly recommend!”
“Erica was amazing with my girl Sweet Potato! She was super responsive when I needed a sitter in a pinch, and was communicative throughout her week-long boarding, putting me at ease throughout. I will definitely request Erica to take great care of my kid in the future.”
“Emerald was lovely and communicative! She sent me lots of photos of my dog and hers playing and hanging out together while I was away, and she was very flexible and understanding regarding arrival and pickup times. Stevie clearly had a wonderful time <3”
“Absolutely incredible. They took great care of our baby boy, sent many updates, and we were able to rest assured Shoresy was in good hands and having fun. When our flight home got delayed, they were extremely accommodating and went way above and beyond to help us out. We will definitely be using them again- Shoresy had an amazing time!”
“Kathleen was an AMAZING DogSitter. She made sure to check in with me multiple times a day with updates and photos. She was also really thoughtful and would ask about any dietary or allergic issues that my dog might have before giving her any treats.”
“I highly recommend Juliana and her family as your go to sitter. Juliana is extremely communicative and sends daily updates and pictures/videos. Our dog always comes back clean, happy, and sleepy! Juliana has become our go to sitter for when we travel out of town!”
“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.”
“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! ❤️”
“Robin always does such a good job with my fur babies. It’s nice having someone I can trust with no worry and keeps in close touch with me. They enjoy her company and home. She has watched my cats before prior to Rover and I use this just in case there is ever a time she is not available when I need. Which is always highly unlikely she’s so accommodating.”
“Shushma and family took excellent care of our fur baby! This was our first experience using this service through Rover and they made us feel completely comfortable. She provided daily updates, pictures and videos which we appreciated. Clean and loving environment. Book her, you won’t be disappointed!”
“I needed to find a last minute sitter as my usual one is unavailable. She is local to me which is great. We arranged for a meet and greet with our dogs and all went well (her dogs are so sweet!). She is very accommodating to my dog's needs and after picking her up the next day, she was so exhausted from a great time with Lauren and her family (humans and pets). We will definitely be booking with Lauren again!”
“Rhonda did a phenomenal job caring for my 1 year old, highly energetic Pomeranian. She sent feedback (pictures) each day to let us know how he was doing AND she took him on a little adventure to Coney Island. From the moment I met her in person, I felt confident that I made the right choice in choosing her. You will not regret leaving your furry friend with Rhonda.”
“Narly and her family were great sitters for our two pups while we went on vacation for 10 days. they have a lovely house with a fenced in yard they got to enjoy, a great dog named Princess to play with, and plenty of people to keep them company. they were having stomach issues while at her house and Narly was very understanding and caring. we were so glad to know they were in such great hands. thank you, Narly!”
“Aritra and his partner are dog lovers. They took absolutely the best care of my senior dog who has many special needs. They ensured to keep me updated on his daily progress as well which helped me while I was out of the country. I highly recommend booking with them.”

I couldn't be happier with the care my dog received! She was kind, reliable, and treated him like one of her own. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly appreciate the love and attention she gave him, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my boy!
Dayan is amazing she took care of my dog like it was hers pet every day I texts and updates of how my babe (dog) was doing and my dog is a rescue dog and he’s now a senior dog she took great care with him to the point where I felt comfortable while on vacation. Dayan is a great person thank you for looking after my dog max.

There are 13,895 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.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
