“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!”
“Super pleased with the care my dog received for her first week with Ashley! She was well taken care of and was happy while I was away. I got lots of pictures and updates, which helped me feel at ease. I’m already booked again with Ashley and appreciate the sense of security she gives me while my family travels.”
“We have been so lucky to have found Bob & Vicky, and their little doggy helper Jax, as our extended stay fur-baby sitters. They’ve helped us out twice now, and are our “go-to” sitters of choice. Could not be happier with the care they’ve shown our little pup while we were away. Thank you so much.”
“We loved our first experience with Jillian and her family and we are now repeat costumers. Thank you Jillian for loving our furry friend and caring for him while we were away.”
“Amber is a life saver!! She took such good care of my pup Stewie. She kept me up to date during his stay by sending photos and videos of Stewie and had quick responses. Her pup Jasper and Stewie played all day and hit it off instantly. Stewie came home tired and after a long trip away, I was thrilled to know he was taken care of and had the best time with Amber and Jasper. I highly recommend and will definitely use again!”
“Lindsay was amazing!!! Our 5 month old puppy stayed with her for over a week and it was the best experience. She worked with her on some basic training, got her to sleep in a crate and sent daily pictures and updates! We will definitely use her again in the future!!”
“This was my first time leaving my dogs with someone I didn't know and was very happy with how they were treested. Bobbie took fantastic care of my dogs and will be a repeat customer.”
“Lori was absolutely wonderful with my bernedoodle puppy! She sent me pictures every day and responded quickly to my messages. She even helped potty train him! Will definitely be using her services again.”
“Amanda was a perfect sitter for my hunting dog Wrigley. Given all the exercise she needed, Wrigley was allowed to socialize/play with Amanda’s two golden retrievers, was fed well, and was thoughtfully protected from the summer heat. This included early morning walks before the heat of the day. Amanda provided photos, videos and feedback to keep me apprised of Wrigley’s overall health, allowing me to more fully enjoy my time away. Wrigley quickly became part of Amanda’s family, and I am confident Wrigley received the best care possible. I highly recommend Amanda for your dog sitting needs.”
“I couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing care our Tasha provided for my two dogs, Miss Tucker and Dobby. From the start, communication was excellent, and I received daily photos and updates that showed how comfortable and happy they were. Miss Tucker and Dobby are full of energy, but Tasha was able to match their personalities and energy perfectly. They even took them on regular walks, which they absolutely love! It meant so much knowing they were getting exercise, attention, and lots of love while I was away. Coming home to two calm, happy pups said everything. It’s never easy leaving your dogs, but I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. I will definitely be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”
“Michael, Wendy and their sweet family were amazing with our Charlie! We joked that he might be disappointed to get picked up! It was wonderful to have such peace of mind knowing our puppers was in great hands.”
“Kristina was amazing! Great with communication and updates. Our dog Bentley can have a bit of anxiety and through the whole trip I was never stressed due to her giving us such amazing updates. Bentley loved his stay with Kristina!”
“Jess is absolutely fantastic. This was our first time using Rover and Jess set the bar high. She is kind, accommodating, and courteous. She gave daily updates on our little buddy and I know that he was extremely pampered and well taken care of. Thanks so much again for everything Jess, and for getting us in last minute. You are the best!”
“Moya is amazing. I cannot recommend her high enough. I have an older dog so am always very careful with where I place him and she immediately put my worries to ease. Great communication before, during, and after. Family environment which was perfect for my dog. It felt more like an extension of my own care for my dog than trying to fit him into a different environment. Thank you Moya!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Garden City
Gentle person, Leaving my 3 furries for a week off grid, unable to obsess about them actively. Jazzi communicated with family throughout their stay and could not have been more gentle and caring in her approach with my precious cargo but ME too. They were happy, comfortable and right at home while away from home. Thank you for everything you do. You are a gift.
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!
Not even your hair dresser who sees you once a month may remember you. Not so with Alisa. It had been several months since my pups were with her, yet she readily remembered them and their respective quirks. Even better, they remembered her and by the wags of their tails as they left me, the pups knew they were in for another great stay!
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!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Garden City
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Garden City on Rover is $39.96 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 545 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.
