“John went above and beyond for me and my dog, Andie! Great communication, flexible, and thoughtful throughout her stay. She was so genuinely loved and cared for by John and his family. He even gave her a bath and blow dry. The love is real! I felt completely at ease knowing Andie was in such great hands. I will absolutely be booking with John again. Highest recommendation! ❤️🐾”

“Nena was an excellent sitter for Tina! She kept us updated but not overwhelmingly, and was very responsive. Tina seemed happy and content with her. We’d happily rebook with Nena!”
“Each time we leave Nutmeg in Euitae’s hands we know she will receive the best care and love. She loves staying there and her walks in the park, and we love the photos, communication and updates.”
“Regina is absolutely amazing. I knew she was wonderful right from our meet and greet. She met my adult dog Otto and my foster puppy Lula. Lula stayed with Regina for over a week and she was so accommodating and helpful. Lula was growing so much and destroyed all her toys so Regina even bought her a harness and some toys! She was worried Lula would be sad because she got so attached to her that she even walked her over to me so that Lula would see Otto in hopes that that would cheer her up! I now use her for walks when I'm in the office and stays if needed! Regina is wonderful and Lula loved her so much 🥹”
“Laura does a great job with my shy man Archie. I needed someone to watch him over the Christmas Holiday (I was so sad to leave him) and Laura made sure to send me lots of pictures of my snuggle bug. Her dog Rex helped Archie feel comfortable and I felt calmer knowing my little man was in such good hands / paws.”
“Teraesa M. was amazing -- she kept me updated on Tumi's stay. Tumi really enjoyed Teraesa's home and company. I would definitely use her again.”
“I had an Amazing experience leaving my Baby Monroe with Diane. I had no worries whatsoever! I was texted everyday morning n night. I talk on the phone I had videos. The communication with Diana was Excellent! She will Be my doggie Babysitter for Always ❤️ I would give her 10 Stars ? ⭐️??✨ Thank You!”
“Second time I left my furbaby in Tori’s care and she had another phenomenal stay. Her and Bubba have soooo much fun together, getting all the smiling playtime videos and sweet pics of them snuggled up makes me feel so reassured leaving my dog in someone’s care and able to truly be on vacation. Cleo was experiencing some allergies and Tori even took the time to suggest some solutions she uses herself that eased Cleo’s itchiness! Highly recommend!”
“Ziwei was great with my dog Lyla! Lyla can be very anxious and shy in new places but she seemed comfortable with Ziwei and even had fun playing with the other dogs. Ziwei sent lots of pics and videos and was very quick to answer any messages which made me feel at ease. Would highly recommend her for your dogs!”
“Flora did a wonderful job with Cece. Cece gets very sad when we leave, but Cece was so sad to leave Flora. Pictures and updates were on the regular. Cece was truly cared for well while we were away, I will definitely be reaching out again when the time arises.”
“Isabelle was a wonderful dog sitter! She was communicative, thoughtful, and clearly attentive to Jaxon’s needs. She sent updates and photos, and I felt reassured knowing he was in such good hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to other pet parents!”
“Ashley was amazing, my family had an emergency and she accompanied us the same day and even work to extend to help us further. She was professional and responsive theoughoit.”
“Had to make not only a slightly last minute booking but unusual one at that. Paul was so helpful from pickup to drop off he went above and beyond. He is very responsive, sent updated of our girl, and was competent to handle pickup a drop off at airport cargo!! If you’re wondering who to choose just book him, you won’t regret it!”
“Andrej is amazing with Hunter. Every time Hunter sees him, goes absolutely nuts with excitement, and when Andrej brought him home last time, Hunter didn’t even want him to leave. You never know how someone treats your dog when you cannot be there to observe. But Hunter did zoomies around the apartment and tried to follow Andrej down the elevator before finally coming back to me. That tells me everything I need to know about how well he is treated when I’m not around. Andrej communicates proactively with pictures and videos throughout the stay, gives Hunter plenty of playtime and outdoor socializing, and Hunter always comes back happy and well-cared-for. I feel completely comfortable leaving my dog with him. Highly recommend this sitter. 10/10”

I had a wonderful experience with Shania as always! She took care of my dog for almost two weeks, and I couldn’t have been happier with the care she provided. My dog absolutely loves her, and she consistently kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. I would highly recommend her and would happily book with her again!
Ashley was amazing and my dog really loved her! 2 weeks without my dog and I can’t imagine a more comfortable setup, she was so well cared for and happy when I picked her up. Ashley kept me up to date with photos, videos, etc. I’ve never felt so comfortable with my dog in someone else’s care and this was the most time we spent apart in 10 years! Thank you so much Ashley!
Leaving your dog with anyone is super nerve-racking and can give you a lot of anxiety, but when I tell you that all of my anxiety and nervousness went away instantly when me and my dog Tyson met Michelle and Michael. Tyson immediately fell in love with them you can tell he was so happy to meet them, it’s almost as if he already knew them. It’s something about their energy and presence. It’ll be a blessing for your dog to stay with them. Tyson is a 75 pound mostly pitbull/Labrador, so of course with our size dogs we’re always a little more nervous and worried if dog sitters are going to take care of your dog the way you want them to and I can say that Michael and Michelle went above and beyond, they sent me pictures and updated me how he was doing daily. And when I picked up Tyson, he was at peace, He didn’t have any anxiety. He was really calm and happy. You can tell that he had a great stay and was well taken care of. I will highly recommend Michelle and Michael. Also their home is super clean ! Thank you again for the awesome service and for showing all the love to my boy while I was away. Tyson will be back.
Mahfuza was great, compassionate, kind & loving towards my baby boy Mimic 🐈⬛️ she also followed the instructions that was given to her. Mahfuza also has a orange baby boy herself & Mimic & him got along just fine. She also sent me pictures & videos daily of Mimic which I can see he was in great hands. I will refer Mahfuza to anyone that needs a loving Cat sitter. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five stars all the way Thank you again Mahfuza you are truly the best 💯🫶🙌
Kevin and Chie were EXCELLENT! They cared for and treated my sweet Teddy sooooo amazing. I was updated throughout the days with lots of pictures and videos. Teddy was smiling the whole stay! Chie kept Teddy with her at all times. I will be rebooking FOR SURE next time. They are great and caring + very responsible! Thank you so much again!
I needed to find a last minute sitter as my usual one is unavailable. She is local to me which is great. We arranged for a meet and greet with our dogs and all went well (her dogs are so sweet!). She is very accommodating to my dog's needs and after picking her up the next day, she was so exhausted from a great time with Lauren and her family (humans and pets). We will definitely be booking with Lauren again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Boarding in Howard Beach is $35 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $76 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.
There are 14,303 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Howard Beach. About 88% of Howard Beach 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.
