“Amy was such a great dog sitter for our pup! She was available last minute and so accommodating! We were delayed coming back from our trip and she was able to take our dog for an extra day, which we were so grateful for. We felt completely comfortable with our dog staying with Amy and would happily book her again!”
“Ashley, Charles and her wonderful family were the BEST!! This was the first time I had boarded my dog and it was an exceptional experience. They took great care of Ricky Ricardo and sent pictures and updates the entire time. I will use them again and Ricky can't wait to see Ashley, Charles and her family again! I highly recommend!”
“Thank you Elise so very much! You are so awesome, I got to leave my dog with Elise and she accommodated me very well with my last minute flight information. She is so flexible and my dog loved the stay so much, I don’t think he wanted to leave! She will be my go to for any future stays!”
“My dog loves this family! She is engaged in lots of activities and is worn out by the end of the day. She loves all the attention! I never have to worry because I know she’s being taken care of and engaged in play more than she is at home.”
“Jazzi was an awesome sitter! My dog got along great with hers and he had such a fun time the whole weekend. She sent photos and updates each day and I know he got the best care in her home”
“Lori is a great pet sitter, You can tell she’s really good with animals! I didn’t think Quincy was going to want to come home he really was welcomed and I know he had a fabulous time. I got pictures everyday I was on vacation and really am thankful for the great care she took of him. Absolutely recommended”
“My first time using Rover, I am beyond happy with my experience using Bob & Vicky. The communication and everyday photos and updates made my trip so easy and I knew my Archie boy was in good hands. Bob and Vicky made me feel like family and I feel like I’ve known them for years!!! How welcoming and warm they make you feel. The most giving and thoughtful couple I’ve ever met. I will most definitely be using Bob & Vicky anytime I need my Archie boy watched.”
“Tasha is wonderful! She took such great care of our dogs, and we’ll definitely use her again. She has a warm, caring presence, and her home feels just the same — with a great yard for the pups to play. We felt totally at ease leaving them with her. She kept us updated with pictures and even took them for a walk (with our okay first). Highly recommend!”
“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 🙂”
“Oakley always has the best time with Elizabeth & Alexander. They send plenty of check ups with pictures. Oakley is so excited to go back soon.”
“Yama had a great time with Amber! Amber and her dog provided good daily exercise and stimulation. I received daily photos, and Yama even came home groomed. It was no problem for me to add a day due to unforeseen circumstances. Overall, we were very pleased and would go with Amber again!”
“We absolutely loved having Rich and his family watch Harbor! It was our first time leaving her with someone and they were extremely responsive, sent lots of photos, and she was SO happy when we picked her up!”
“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.”
“Alisa was a great host for our active, but older, golden retriever. We picked him up and could tell he was happy there. Alisa is easy to communicate with and responsive. I would recommend her and hope to use her again.”

Lori was so great to work with. I had never left my pups with anyone before so I was nervous about leaving them. Lori made me so comfortable the girls loved her and her boys. I got lots of pictures every day. I highly recommend Lori to take excellent care of your dogs.
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. ❤️
Reese was terrific! She was flexible to meet our scheduling needs including when our flight home was delayed. She kept us up to date about our pups and they were happy and healthy when we got them back. I would definitely recommend Reese and not hesitate to ask her to pet sit for us again in the future!
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!
Booked them for my parent’s dogs. Absolutely amazing experience for my parents and their dogs. Got the personalized care just like they were in their own home. We were looking for the dogs to get one on one human affection. The dogs got that and more. Definitely would recommend Andrea G. to anyone. We will be booking them again!

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.
