“Korin watched Hunter our King Charles Cavalier over this weekend. We were without a sitter at the last minute. Korin was happy to save our weekend plans by accommodating us. She took great care of Hunter and kept us updated throughout the weekend. I highly recommend Korin for all your pet sitting needs.”
“Daniel did a great job of taking care of our dog Rocky while we were away. I was a little anxious about leaving him but felt much better after our Meet and Greet. He was gentle and patient with my shy guy and it put us at ease. He sent videos of Rocky daily and accommodated our apprehension about having Rocky around other dogs. I definitely recommend Daniel for your pet sitting needs.”

In some of those pictures, my pup did things that she'd do at our house, so i knew that Sara treated her as a family member.”
“Toni and her husband took such good care of my dog Millie. Very reliable and flexible. She gave me updates every day with a picture and treated her as one of her family! Thank you and thanks for being so accomodating!”
“Naomi!!! Amazing!!!Talk about a peace of mind! We had to leave in rather short notice & Naomi was so accommodating!!! Fin & Daisy fell in love right away w/ Naomi & her little Puppy Love Gazebo!! What a cool “kennel-esque” feel, well even more of a She Shed vibe, you know like a place you want to escape to with a good book & a glass of wine … except this one was designed perfectly for pups! Exactly what I was looking for, their own dedicated space full of warmth, the perfect cozy spot to curl up in, yet with plenty of room to roam & explore!! Naomi was incredibly kind, caring, and attentive to our two little dogs. It was clear from the beginning that she genuinely love animals and treated our pups with so much patience, affection, and care. We felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such good hands. We highly recommend Naomi to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets!”
About: I’ve had a dog in my life since I was 7. I’ve always had a great relationship with them. Any new environment I go to I get to know the dogs first. My friends always point out the special relationship I have with them. I’ve taken care of friends dogs throught the years too. About 3 years ago I found a puppy on the street and raised him to be the good boy you see on my profile picture. I am very comfortable with dogs and understand them very well. I hope you trust me with your little friend. I am currently away from home for a few months so for now none. Usually everyday. I take my dog most places I go with me and make sure to let him run around and let out the crazy high amounts of energy he has haha I’m living with my mother here. She loves animals and is excited of the prospect of furry friends coming over. We have a fenced yard with a pool. I’ll also be taking them for walks regularly. At the house we’ll just be hanging out together!
“Thank you Jennifer for taking such good care of Dolly. She obviously felt safe and content in your home with loving attention by both you and your husband Jim. This was the longest time she has ever been away from us and we felt assured she was in good hands. Looking forward to having you take care of Dolly in the future.”
“Kathy was very friendly and responsive to my inquiries. She made sure to learn all of Rosie's health information, dietary needs, veterinarian information, etc. When I picked up Rosie, I could tell she was treated like a member of their household and was well-taken care of!”
“Catherine was amazing! Her and her husband were very sweet and knowledgeable! They took the time to do a proper meet and greet which helped my dog get to know them and made my experience so comforting to know exactly where my dog would be as well as get to know who my dog would be staying with. They sent updates throughout the entire time. My dog was so happy, well cared for, and felt at home. Highly recommended booking Catherine!”
“This was our first time leaving Finn with anyone outside of family or our usual sitter. Sandy was so responsive, provided a comfortable and safe environment for the dogs, and you could tell she really cares for the dogs! I would highly recommend her for anyone considering boarding with Rover.”
“Bear was very comfortable with Yi and his family, which, puts me at ease. I will definitely recommend Yi AND I have every intention on using him again when my family head out of town.”

Fantastic experience! Jinay was punctual, professional, and excellent with my girl Wren I loved getting the updates and photos. I was nervous about leaving Wren because she can be anxious. Jinay was patient, gentle, and incredibly understanding. She took the time to make Wren feel safe and comfortable. I am so grateful for her care and will definitely use her again! Five Stars!

Sara was an amazing sitter! From day one, she provided excellent communication and was very responsive to my questions. During the trip, she sent several updates and pictures, so I knew that my pup was well cared for. In some of those pictures, my pup did things that she'd do at our house, so i knew that Sara treated her as a family member.
This was our first time using Rover. I was very reluctant to use a person I did not know, or friends didn't know. However, I am so glad I took the chance with a 5 day/overnight in Sarah's home. It's a relief she only takes one animal at a time since our dog doesn't like other dogs. At the meet and greet, Sarah asked many questions to get a feel for Milo (eating & bathroom habits, walking, sleeping habits etc...) To start, her home is absolutely immaculate. I received a daily update with pictures on how our dog was adjusting & doing overall. Milo was displaying some quirky behaviors which Sarah reported right away & thought was cute/funny. She was very accepting, flexible in many ways, and an absolute delight to talk with. It is apparent she is a dog lover! Upon pick up, Milo was happy and all his belongings were packed & ready to go. We plan on using Sarah again for our next trip, if she's available.
Michala and her family were awesome start to finish! She communicated right away, was very pleasant to speak with and the pups were very well cared for, came home tired and happy! Can't ask for anything more, I whole heartedly recommend Michala to care for your fur children! Happy Holidays!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Holtsville is $67 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $87 per night. 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.
As of October 2026, there are 1,385 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Holtsville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
97% of sitters in Holtsville can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Holtsville home-away-from-home, 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 Holtsville.
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 Holtsville 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 , 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 .
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.
