“After a few no responses on here I finally found Gloria who responded right away. Had a meet and greet and My Roxie stayed with her almost a week while we went away. Got daily photos and Roxie probably got more attention while there then at home lol. Very professional and she loves dogs. We found our dog sitter for any time we go away now :)”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and I am very knowledgeable & responsible. I find dogs & cats trust me because they sense that I’m a kind caring person. I’m currently retired so I will have plenty of time to meet your pet care needs. I get lots of daily exercise walking and doing yoga. I’m comfortable walking in all kinds of weather. I will care for your pet the same way that you would. I follow your exact instructions. Your pet is my first priority at all times. I always want to bond and create a nice connection because their happiness is important to me.
“It was our first time ever leaving our dog with a sitter. We were very nervous about it, but Sonia and her family made sure to send us videos and photos of her every day and constantly kept us updated on the well being of our Ginger! They welcomed her with open arms and made her feel right at home immediately . Thank you so much for taking such great care of our baby!”
“From the first meet and greet, we knew that Cynthia would take a great care of our Canela. She sent us updates regularly which made us feel at peace while on vacation. My daughters asked if we can always leave our dog with her whenever we go away. We definitely will. Thank you so much Cynthia.”
“Rachel Rachel was absolutely wonderful with Nilo. This was our first time using her services after our regular sitter had an unexpected emergency, and she was kind enough to meet with us right away. Nilo can be a little challenging at times, so I made sure to explain his personality, behaviors, and needs. Rachel was incredibly patient, understanding, and caring from the very beginning. She took the time to make Nilo feel comfortable, took him on several walks, and it was clear that he felt safe and relaxed in her home. It means so much to find someone who genuinely cares for your pet, and Rachel did exactly that. We felt at ease knowing Nilo was in such good hands. We are so grateful for her help and would not hesitate to book with her again. Thank you, Rachel, for taking such great care of our Nilo! ❤️ We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”
“Diane has been a lifesaver! Prompt updates and photos, amazing response time, wonderful service & Luna was very happy! Which is what everyone ultimately needs to know while they are separated from their pet. Diane has been amazing and we will definitely be using her again in the future if needed!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They kept my dog at their home for 2 days, sent updates and pictures, and were kind and attentive. It was clear my dog was happy and well taken care of. I’m very grateful and would absolutely book with them again.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and sizes, treating each one like my own. From playful pups to senior snuggle bugs, I want your pets to feel safe, loved, and happy. I am a home care speech therapist who works close to home. I have a flexible schedule, allowing me to give your pet and mine plenty of attention and care. Plus, a loving family member is always home for extra company! I create a calm, loving environment with lots of play, cuddles, and routine. Whether in my home or yours, I follow your pet’s schedule to keep them happy and comfortable. Available for meet and greet by Mary Jane Davies park prior to pet boarding. As a personal preference, we don’t do meet & greets in the home and don’t take more than one dog (unless it’s from the same family, 2 max). Big on sending updates and pictures.
“Narly is great. She cared for my guys as if they were her own. Her home was very accommodating for them. Plenty of room to run around. She sent pics each day which kept me at ease. Glad I found her.”
“We are thrilled with our experience with John! This was our first time using this site, and he was amazing with our Benny. He kept us updated with pictures and videos, which made us feel at ease. Having his dog Dallas around was a definitely bonus. Thank you, John! We would love to work with you again and highly recommend you!”
“Jessica and her family were amazing with Charlie. They loved and took care of him like he was their own. She sent photos all the time. This is a loving household with responsible owners!”
“Katharine was fantastic! She made the whole process so easy took great care of our dog baby while we were on vacation. I loved getting pictures regularly and seeing how happy and well taken care of she was. I wouldn't hesitate to use Katharine again!”
“I am so glad I trusted Kristen to keep my pet Yorkie. I went with her once I met her and saw how passionate she is about not just her animals but all. She treated my benjie like her own. I have left my dog with his vet boarding in the past and felt he didn't get the attention or care I expected. He was a little withdrawn and took a few days to be his normally playful self. When I picked up my pet from Kristen he was as happy as when I dropped him off and that meant a lot to me. I'm glad I chose Kristen and will definitely continue to use her services. I definitely recommend.”
“Jordan is pleasant and responsive. Latke was returned happy and healthy. He let me know that he had another booking that would overlap mine, which turned out OK but would have been an issue if the dogs didn’t get along. His apartment is small and it would have been difficult to keep the dogs separated. Also I would have appreciated more photos, especially on the first day with the other dog. He responded promptly with pictures when prompted. Overall, I would recommend him.”
“This was my first experience with Rover, and I will admit I was nervous leaving my baby with a stranger. Thankfully, Karine’s glowing reviews were 100% true. Karine helped make me (and Laila) feel comfortable with the entire process. Karine provided frequent updates with pics throughout my pup’s stay. She showed Laila love and care as if she were her own. I highly recommend Karine to anyone and everyone!! I will be sure to rebook with her again. Thank you!! 💜”

I love the outdoors, playing, and having energy to run and have a great time with mine and your pets. I have a backyard ready to play in and I also live 5 minutes from a trail.

Jen is excellent! She takes good care of my dog during two nights of boarding. She pays attention on every details for which my dog needs. Her personality is friendly and very straightforward, so it is easy and comfortable to communicate with her. During my dog’s boarding, she sent several pictures and videos of my dog, I can tell that she was really paying attention on my dog. I really appreciate Rover let me find such a wonderful sitter to make my worry free when I am away from home.
Crystal and her family were great! I reached out last minute looking for a sitter for our pit/hound mix. People seem to be very hesitant to sit a dog with a pit mix. Crystal wasn’t phased at all and was super accommodating. Crystal had a meet-and-greet set up quickly and was super welcoming to our dog. Crystal sent pictures every day and was awesome at letting us know how our dog was doing during the trip. Would absolutely recommend Crystal to anyone!
I had such a wonderful experience with her watching my dogs! She did an outstanding job and kept me updated throughout the entire stay with regular messages and lots of adorable photos. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dogs were happy, safe, and well cared for. She was kind, reliable, and clearly loves animals. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely use her again! ❤️🐾
Heeyoung is a fantastic dog sitter. She’s great at managing interactions between different dogs and has an excellent system to allow for meet and greets and slow introductions. She gave regular photo and video updates and handled our dogs medication schedule well. We’ll definitely use her services again.
Jenny truly is the best of the best! I’ve had horror stories with other sitters but Jenny truly changed my perspective. She treated my cocker spaniel as her own. Sent me multiple updates with pics every single day! I truly appreciated that as an anxious dog mom! She was super flexible, listened to and reassured all of my worries and just went above any beyond! She will always be my go to sitter for my dog! Thanks again Jenny!
Carina took good care of Sadie. We loved getting the regular photo and video updates. Seeing Sadie is safe and happy especially over the July 4th weekend with lots of fireworks set our minds at ease. Carina was attentive with Sadie’s walks and routine toothbrushing. We also appreciate her fenced backyard and double-door entry.
I have nothing but positive things to say about Nia. From the first contact, she was kind and professional. We did a meet and greet before our trip and it was instantly obvious that this was the right person to care for our girl while we were away. We had some uncomfortable past experiences when leaving our dog at a facility and vowed never to do it again. So we tried Rover for the first time, and our experience was nothing short of amazing. I truly believe Nia has a special gift like a dog whisperer. Even after the meet and greet our dog was so calm. Nia is a special person and every one of us felt it. She eased our anxiety instantly. I never had to ask how my pup was because Nia updated before I even got a chance to ask on the daily. Dottie has a new best friend and I am forever thankful. This was the first vacation in 5 years I felt at peace knowing my dog was safe and happy. Without a doubt, I will be reaching out to Nia on Rover, for any future vacations. Thank you Nia from the bottom of our hearts!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 13,693 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Hicksville. About 88% of Hicksville sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
