“Margarita and Christian took excellent care of Charlie! We had great communication and they kept us updated on his stay. We highly recommend them and would hire them again to take care of Charlie!”
“Kristine took care of my dog for 3 nights and it all well for communication and boarding service. I really appreciate for taking care of my dog and professional service.”
“Adriana was super sweet with my Emma. She was great with communication and sent the BEST photos of my fur baby to keep me updated. I’ll definitely be rebooking her again the next time I am on holiday.”
“Denis was absolutely wonderful with my energetic orange boy cat! He was great at communicating every day and noting anything in terms of behavior which helped make me feel calm during the early days. Not entirely sure who’s vacation was better 🐈🤍 Would highly recommend him and will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“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 is an amazing dog sitter! She is so kind, has a gentle demeanor and it is so evident that her and her whole family love animals. Juliana also has great communication skills and updated me daily with pictures. The daily updates really gave me peace of mind and I felt that my little fur baby was on a vacation being in her care. I would book Juliana again in a heartbeat.”
“Emily was great with Evie! Very responsive and also made sure we were comfortable with everything. Even though our dog is very skittish around other dogs, she made sure her own dogs stayed at a family member's home during Evie's stay. We will likely use her again in the future if we have to go on any other away trips. Sent a lot of pictures each day to update us. Also, Evie's stay was during the forest fires in Canada so the air quality was bad outside. However, Emily made sure that her air filters were on so we never had to worry about her or Evie. 5/5 stars!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Bruno and Victoria! From the very beginning, they were incredibly communicative and made us feel completely at ease. Daily walks were provided for both my Yorkies and I was sent lots of photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while being away. Leaving our dogs with someone new can always feel a little scary. However, Bruno’s friendly, kind, and caring nature immediately reassured us that our dogs were in great hands. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and attentive dog sitter!”
“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”
“I am so thankful Charlie was available for a last minute booking/ boarding for our dog, Bibi. After communicating our needs, we knew Charlie was a great fit. Our dog felt right at home, and Charlie communicated frequently throughout her time there, including sending picture and video updates unprompted. We would love the opportunity to re-book with Charlie in the future.”
“Words can not express how awesome my fur babies were taken care of. The pictures and always updates on my fur baby’s was a great experience. I recommend David 1,000 times . By far he’s been the best .”
“Renald did a great job watching our pup over the weekend! We highly recommend him for anyone looking for a reliable Rover who will walk and spend time with your dog while you’re out of town.”
“Gaby and her husband have been so nice with my dog Rocco. They have been keeping me posted all the time with pictures and messages, took good care of Rocco and even gave him a perfect grooming. I will be for sure a constant client. Thankful!❤️”
“Thank you so much for your excellent work with my baby. Thank you for all the pictures and updates, that allowed me to enjoy my trip. Austin's was very happy. Thank you so much for everything!”
“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 did a great job with our Harper girl over a long weekend! She sent lots of pictures and updates so that we knew Harper was safe and happy. She went out of her way to make our pup comfortable. And - Harper loved the back yard!”
“Iwona took wonderful care of our dog while we were away and gave us real peace of mind. She kept us updated throughout the weekend and sent photos, which we always appreciate. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog sitter!”
“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!”
“Jennifer is very caring and responsible, I had my 2 poms staying with her for 5 days and she took great care of them. She will update me with pictures and videos everyday on how they were doing, definitely will book her again and also highly recommend her.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my Sheltie received. She was accepted at the very last minute, and he was incredibly open, kind, and accommodating. He truly pampered her and made sure she felt comfortable and loved the entire time. I received plenty of daily photos and videos, always following every instruction exactly as given. It’s clear he cares deeply about the pets he looks after. Highly recommended.”

We cannot recommend Julian enough she watched Oliver for 5 dyas and went above and beyond. I received wonderful daily pictures and videos updates and Oliver looked so happy and relaxed. Julian followed all feeding instructions precisely. I will definitely book with her again.
Margarita and Cristian are truly the best!! My goldendoodle, Cooper, loves his stay with them. He comes back home happy after his stay and you can tell he is truly loved by Margarita and Cristian. Margarita is very accommodating to a few emergencies that have popped up for me and is willing to work with you to give your pet the best accommodation. She also provides updates on your pet and provides pictures. I highly recommend booking Margarita and Cristian as your pets sitter!! You won’t regret it!
Charlie took great care of Wolly-Buddy. Since it was a new environment, I was a little concerned about how he would adjust, but Charlie’s daily updates and pictures reassured me. He was also very responsive whenever I checked in. Buddy seemed happy and comfortable when I picked him up, and I would recommend Charlie without hesitation.
I had a long trip planned and thought of sending my dog all the way out to Queens from Manhattan so he could have a yard and a family! But I never knew I was booking THE BEST FAMILY IN THE FIVE BOROUGHS. This is the kindest, most loving, careful family ever. My dog got so much attention and care, and their little girl is his new best friend. Cannot recommend these folks enough.
Five stars without hesitation! I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. Lulu was treated like family with healthy homemade gourmet meals, lots of love and attention, and frequent photo and video updates that made me smile every day while I was away. His communication was outstanding, and it was obvious he genuinely cares about every detail of a pet's well being. I came home to a happy, healthy pup, and I wouldn't hesitate to leave Lulu with him again. Highly, highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I wish I could add on more stars! Mei is the absolute best, this was our Nina’s first boarding since we adopted her and she was so lucky to be staying with Mei and also two other little clients bobo and hamburger! She had the best week i’m sure! Mei always updated me throughout the day, sent pictures and videos and informed me on nina’s food and treat intake and was always so responsive and kind! Since it was also my frist time leaving Nina with someone else I felt very grateful and comfortable with Mei’s updates! Super friendly house and amazing care, we will definitely be booking with Mei again! 10/10 recommend!!!! 💗🐾
Ryozo took a great care of our pup! He was very responsive and always answered all of our questions. Frankie the pup is still very anxious creature and Ryozo kindly accomodated his needs, eg walks at night in quiet neighborhoods or emergency pumkin puree purchases where Frankie was too shy to soiminate waste. Thank you Ryozo! We gladly recommend you to any pet parent! :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Forest Hills 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 13,996 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.
95% 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.
