“I had such a wonderful experience! She took amazing care of my dog, Jesse, and spoiled him with so much love that my heart felt completely at ease while I was away. She sent pictures every day and kept me updated, which meant the world to me. It’s clear she truly cares about the pets she watches. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving sitter!”
“There aren't enough good things that I can say about Chad and his family! Not only was he super responsive, but I definitely felt like my dog was in good hands. Throughout my trip, I received many photo updates, usually when my dog was out and about playing with other pups. Having someone that you can depend on is paramount and I hit the jackpot with Chad. THANK YOU!!! P.S. Jovie says hello 🙂”
“Excellent sitter! He was kind, professional, and very responsive, making everything easy from start to finish. I really appreciated his communication and reliability. I would absolutely recommend him and wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again.”
“Ashley was so good with Sadie, she gave us regular updates and took her for walks! Sadie seemed to enjoy her time at Ashley’s house with her family.”
“With a last minute request, Dooku spent a weekend with Lindsay and her family. From the onset, Lindsay was very prompt with responses, she was very communicative, pleasant and positive. I expressed a concern about Dooku being susceptible to heat exhaustion because he is a black Lab with two coats and the days were very hot (100 to 105 degrees). Lindsay put me at ease and made it clear that she would take care of him, exercise him lightly and monitor his behavior. Knowing Lindsay and her family had a swimming pool, I cautioned her about Dooku’s love for swimming (it’s a lab thing 🐕🦺🐾) and that she would be challenged keeping him out of the pool. Throughout the stay, Lindsay sent me updates, photos and in no time at all, she informed me Dooku was swimming in her pool with her family and they were having fun! There is nothing like putting your cherished pup in the hands of someone else and knowing they are safe and well taken care of. Dooku will certainly be back and Lindsay comes highly recommended! Thanks Lindsay!!!”
“Lori has great response time and sent daily updates and photos of our dog while we were away. She took her to the park daily and threw the ball, which is our dog’s favorite thing to do.”
“Tasha was one of the best dog sitters I’ve used on Rover! She was very responsive, communicated well, and took excellent care of my dog. It was comforting to know my dog was in a safe environment while I was out of town. Highly recommend!”
“Our dogs, Baxter and Nash, stayed with Tina for two weeks, and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was incredibly accommodating and allowed us to bring any items that would make our dogs feel comfortable, such as toys, treats, and beds. Additionally, she confirmed our preferred communication methods regarding our boys’ well-being while they were in her care. We received regular updates and pictures from her, which we truly appreciated. We know that our boys were well taken care of and loved on during their stay with Tina.”
“Elise was awesome with Macy! I have the hardest time trusting anyone with my best friend but the second I dropped her off I knew she was in good hands. Elise kept me updated on how Macy was doing the whole time, and I know Macy got just as much love and attention as she would with me. Thank you for taking such good care of Macy! Elise is definitely my first choice from now on!”
“Jillian is wonderful and took great care of our very small doodle. We look forward to booking with Jillian the next time we're out of town. Highly recommended.”
“Our heartfelt thanks to Bob & Vicky for the great care & love they gave our old Chihuahua. Photo & video updates were appreciated. Jimmy had a good time and came home in great spirits. He is calm and peaceful. Jimmy received gold star care during his visit including plenty of exercise. We think he is already missing their large back yard and cuddle time with Bob. We highly recommend this wonderful couple to take care of your buddy. We're already booking our next trip.”
“Amber is a truly great sitter who obviously has a real connection with dogs. I felt safe leaving my old boy with her (and not long after he had a health scare), and she took excellent care of him. I'm really grateful. Thank you!”
“Bobbie and her husband were perfect hosts and caregivers for Sadie, our chihuahua corgi mix. She is getting old and and a little grouchy when confronted with large dogs or young energetic dogs. Being at Bobbie's place where she was the only dog and had no competition for human attention and affection was great with Sadie. She was healthy and happy when we returned to pick her up after our 10 day trip. Thanks, Bobbie!”
“Amanda is amazing! My two pups love staying at her house. Amanda adores her own dogs and treats them like family, and when my girls were with her they got the same attention, love, and care that she gives her own. I felt VERY comfortable leaving my dogs there for the first time. I knew they were in great hands and were living their best life while I was away. Amanda took them on lots of walks and sent many cute pictures and updates, too. She was also very willing and happy to do things the way our pups are used to at home. Thank you, Amanda! Poppy and Sunny will definitely be staying here again.”
“Thank you so much, Lerin for taking such a good care of our precious Luna during her stay with you. Luna was welcomed into your home and we could tell she was comfortable in her new environment while making new friends with your adorable pups. Thank you for staying in touch and sending us daily updates. We loved the pictures and the funny narratives. Luna came home happy and stress free. We will certainly be reaching out again in the future!”
“Our Charlie was well taken care of while we were out of town. Karin kept us updated on Charlie via text messages. We are very pleased with the care Charlie received from Karin. Thank you so much!”
“In our greet and meet interview our dog felt comfortable right away with the other dogs. We felt a relief as this is the first time we leave our dog with someone else that is not family or friend. We could see that is a caring family and he would be treated as part of it. During his stay, we got pictures showing us how great he was doing. That was something our family really liked.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Garden City
Sarah took such wonderful care of Mio! We could really tell that Mio was being looked after with lots of attention and love. Sarah sent us photo updates every day, which made us feel very comfortable while we were away, and she also provided Mio with plenty of fun activities to keep her entertained. They even set up a little pool for Mio to play in, which was her first time playing in the water! She looked like she had so much fun. We truly believe Mio had an exciting and very happy week with Sarah. We really appreciate all the care she gave her and would absolutely recommend her!
Sean took such good care of our two pups for a week. He seems to read each dog’s temperament and personality well. He works with dogs of all sizes, and knows how introduce dogs to new pups, and skillfully manages their social interactions and playtime. We received photos and a nice message about each day’s highlights. Sean is easy to work with and very accommodating. A great experience!
Taya is beyond phenomenal! My dog, Puffer needed emergency care at night and she did not hesitate whatsoever. She called me up and explained everything she was seeing in detail with Puffer. She stayed with him the entire time he needed care never leaving his side. She loves and takes care of these pups like they are her own dogs. She is very gentle and attentive. Puffer is so lucky to have such an incredible dog sitter like Taya. ❤️
My regular sitter had an emergency arise at the last minute before a 10 day trip; I have a stubborn Frenchie, and a timid (and flight-risk) new rescued pup. Marie was able to take them in, sent updates daily that were really attentive to the dogs' personalities and needs --my rescue who was too nervous to eat and she worked to find something for her that finally coaxed her into having an appetite. Just the best.
Angela was absolutely wonderful! From the very beginning, she communicated so well and took the time to answer all of my questions, making sure I felt completely comfortable leaving my tiny baby with her. Since Phoebe is only 3.5 lbs, finding someone I could truly trust was so important. Throughout her stay, Angela sent daily updates, photos, and thoughtful messages that reassured me Phoebe was safe, happy, and getting so much love and attention. It gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Phoebe had a fantastic stay, and we’ll definitely be back for more playdates. I highly recommend Angela to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and trustworthy sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Garden City on Rover is $40 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 526 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Garden City. 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.
93% of Garden City 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 Garden City 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 Garden City 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 Garden City.
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 Garden City 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 ID 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.
