“Adriana has cared for my puppy multiple times and she is consistently amazing. Ollie is a nervous dog but she does a fantastic job of helping him feel secure and relaxed. Adriana sends photos daily and is very responsive to all communication. She is always number one on my list when I need a sitter!!!”
“Jordan took great care of our pup while we were away. He sent daily updates and pictures which we appreciated. Our dog had a great time and went on lots of walks and hikes. We would definitely use him again.”
“I left my poodle-mix named Scruffy, with Megan and Brian so that I could go away with my husband for a few days to visit family. They were incredibly kind and trustworthy, and I could tell as soon as a I met them that they would be good sitters. Their own dog, Duke, is a good-natured and well behaved dog, and my dog really liked him. Their home is super clean with a cheerful and loving atmosphere. They took such good care of Scruffy, I could see when I picked him up that he had been happy and well cared for. Megan and Brian had also sent me photos of my dog throughout while I was away, which I really appreciated. As soon as you meet Megan and Brian you can see that they are genuinely good people who truly love dogs. I give my highest recommendation to them, and they will always be my first choice to sit my dog when I am traveling somewhere that I cannot bring him. 10 out of 10.”
“Juliana was absolutely wonderful. She sent updates daily and by the end of his stay, Teddy didn’t want to leave her! Grateful she was able to take care of him for us.”
“Amazing sitter! Received bunch of photos and videos every single day. Respond message quickly. Followed special direction exactly. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! I AND MY FUR BABY ARE SO LUCKY TO HAVE THEM.”
“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 can’t recommend Jessica enough! She took care of Dino, while I was away in the Hamptons, and honestly, she went above and beyond. From the start, she was incredibly prompt in replying and super accommodating even when I had to make last minute changes to my schedule. Dino is a recent rescue with some anxiety issues, especially in new places, but Jessica treated him like her own baby. She gave him so much love, attention, and comfort that he settled in beautifully. She also kept me updated with regular pictures and messages, which gave me such peace of mind. It’s rare to find someone who genuinely goes the extra mile the way she did. If you’re looking for someone who will love and care for your pet like their own, Jessica is the one. A truly trustworthy, compassionate, and amazing pet sitter highly, highly recommend her to everyone! 🐾✨”

“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.”

“Judith showed so much love for our fur baby Wolf Puppy in early August! She cared for our other dog Hugo late in July with such care that we knew she'd be great with WP. Her kids and husband gave him all the cuddles and playtime he could of ever wanted. We will definitely use her again for Wolf Pup and Hugo!”
“Denis and his wife were fantastic with our cat. There are clearly cat people - and we felt great knowing Dean Martin was staying with such kind people....”
“Fantastic stay for my Lulu. Lynn was great with my dog. How do I know? My dog was happy in every picture and was happy when I got home. She was well fed and well taken care of. Lynn has a nice yard for dogs to let their hair down and have some fun. Lynn’s family is wonderful too! I highly recommend and will use Lynn again for lulu.”
“Maria was absolutely a perfect dog sitter. She took great care of my Xena last minute and made Xena feel comfortable in her home. Maria was very responsive, reliable, easygoing and a pleasure to communicate with. She send pic updates. Maria was also flexible with times and dates for drop off and pickup. I highly recommend Maria !!”
“Sasha was amazing. I was a little nervous because it's our first time using DogVacay for our miniature schnauzer and we were travelling for two weeks. We did a meet & greet with Sasha and she was warm and answered all of our concerns. I liked she also has another dog Mia that would keep our dog company. When we were travelling, she sent us pictures and videos daily, and even took Caesar to Prospect Park for a long walk! I couldn't have asked for a better host!”
“Diana was incredible! My pup clearly felt so comfortable in her home, and I appreciated her consistent check-ins to let me know how my dog was doing. I can't wait to book her again!”

I booked Henly last minute for boarding and was reliable from the very start of communication. She communicates so well and has a very welcoming personality that makes you feel like your furry one will be in great hands. Throughout his stay, she made Leo feel so loved, and allowed him to explore different park and animal friendly areas. She provided updates, lots of amazing, cutesy photos and notified us of any places she was taking him which we really appreciate. We are so thankful for her care, and will keep her in mind for future care if needed.
Brea was amazing with my (geriatric) puppy! I have a 16 year old chihuahua recovering from some medical issues and Brea took wonderful care of him. She gave me regular, detailed updates and photos. I was nervous being away from him after his illness and Brea put my mind at ease. She has my highest recommendation!
Magdalena was great! Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to have pets loved and cared for while you’re away. Her gentle demeanor immediately put my dog at ease and set such a peaceful, loving tone. It was obvious that she took the time to learn my dog’s personality and what would make her most comfortable. She was extremely accomodating and responsive, and sent updates and photos multiple times a day. Could not have asked for a better experience!!
This was my first time having Lulu stay for two weeks and with Gaby. I had read all the great reviews and scheduled a meet and greet prior to. I’m glad we booked with Gaby and her husband. She’s such a sweetheart with pets and caring to their personalities. I could tell Lulu was taken care of and made new friends along the way 💕.
I can’t recommend Gustavo enough! He took such amazing care of my dog and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from the updates and photos that my dog was loved, happy, and treated like part of their family. He went above and beyond to make sure my dog was comfortable and well cared for. Knowing my dog was in such caring hands made all the difference. I’m so grateful for his kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals. I will definitely be booking with him again!
Maria was s exceptional. My finicky pup warmed up to her and clearly has enjoyed staying with Maria during my extended work assignment. Maria communicates in a timely fashion and gives me plenty of time to order food or other supplies during his stay. She even arranged to take Freedom to be groomed during his stay! I would highly recommend her services for anyone boarding.
If I could give more than 5 stars I would. My wife and I had a wonderful experience with Megan and Brian - they are extremely communicative, always willing to send photos and updates, and were extremely nice and friendly throughout. Our dog had a wonderful time in their care, we will definitely be using them again.
Got to say My son was worried, and When we met the Bruno and Victoria family, my son was still nerves, But Bruno and his wife made my son happy with all the daily videos messages and pictures thru out the day made him feel that his dogs were in safe hands and with a happy home. Bruno and his family are clearly a caring family and they had alot of space at there home and a yard.
Kimberly was amazing! Before Gracey's stay, we met in person to go over everything, which immediately made me feel comfortable. She was quick to communicate, sent regular updates and photos, and took such great care of Gracey. I especially appreciated that she took her out and helped socialize her, something Gracey absolutely loved. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy, active, and in such caring hands. I would absolutely book with Kimberly again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Forest Hills on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 14,042 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Forest Hills. 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.
96% of Forest Hills 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 Forest Hills 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 Forest Hills 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 Forest Hills.
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 Forest Hills 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.
