“I left my poodle-mix named Scruffy, with Megan and Brian so that I could go away with my husband for a few days to visit family. They were incredibly kind and trustworthy, and I could tell as soon as a I met them that they would be good sitters. Their own dog, Duke, is a good-natured and well behaved dog, and my dog really liked him. Their home is super clean with a cheerful and loving atmosphere. They took such good care of Scruffy, I could see when I picked him up that he had been happy and well cared for. Megan and Brian had also sent me photos of my dog throughout while I was away, which I really appreciated. As soon as you meet Megan and Brian you can see that they are genuinely good people who truly love dogs. I give my highest recommendation to them, and they will always be my first choice to sit my dog when I am traveling somewhere that I cannot bring him. 10 out of 10.”
“John and Madeline were lovely sitters for our dog, June. We boarded June with John and Madeline for a weekend as a test run before a longer stay in April, and everything went smoothly. They were communicative and sent regular updates. June seemed to have a nice time, and we look forward to having them look after June again!”
“Another great day care day with Rachel! My dog Daisy enjoys the good company at her home with her dog and cat. Walks in the park, naps, and hanging out in the backyard. Highly recommend her services.”
“Adriana is just amazing! My dog loved her. She informed me and kept me updated about my dog's wellbeing and was always very attentive to Zumba' needs. I trust her 100% and can warmly recommend her to anyone that is looking for a reliable dogsitter!”
“I couldn't be happier with the care my dog received! She was kind, reliable, and treated him like one of her own. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly appreciate the love and attention she gave him, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my boy!”
“Coco always looks happy when I pick her up from Ben's care. She jumps back-and-forth to us like she doesn't know who to go to - which really eases my mind about her stay with Ben and his pup Colby”
“My pug Charlie had another wonderful time with Abbie and Peachy. Charlie feels really safe with Abbie even though she is a little anxious and Peachy is a great friend that helps Charlie to stay active and socialized especially in this cold weather. Outstanding hosts!”
“I had a long trip planned and thought of sending my dog all the way out to Queens from Manhattan so he could have a yard and a family! But I never knew I was booking THE BEST FAMILY IN THE FIVE BOROUGHS. This is the kindest, most loving, careful family ever. My dog got so much attention and care, and their little girl is his new best friend. Cannot recommend these folks enough.”
“Juliana made me feel so at ease leaving Tilly with her while we went on vacation. Typically Tilly is with us 24/7 and she is not used to being away from us. She did really well at Julianas and she sent me daily updates, which I greatly appreciated. I’m happy to know I have someone that Tilly felt safe and comfortable.”
“Emerald was amazing! So friendly and easy to communicate with. She sent lots of photos and updates which was really appreciated. Would absolutely recommend Emerald and would book with her again in the future”
“Tiffany was great with Lou. Lou had a sensitive stomach problems that required some dietary changes and diligence. Tiffany was very diligent, communicative and friendly.”
“Absolute rock star sitter! Took amazing care of my two dogs for 10 days, sent great updates, and even helped with an allergy situation like a total pro. Was reunited with two happy, clean, relaxed pups — can’t ask for better. Would book again without hesitation.”
“Jameeka was so loving and attentive and treated our girl like her own! We got photos or videos everyday and I could tell that Wendy was having a good time playing with the other doggies. She even got a bath from Jameeka on the last day so she came home looking like a million bucks!”
“Michael watched our doggo, Hastings, while we were away on an anniversary trip. While we were away, Michael was communicative and flexible when we had some travel issues. We felt confident that Hastings was in great hands! We would absolutely book with Michael again!”
“Doris and her family always take great care of Brownie as if she was their own fur baby. I can tell from the photos that Brownie is having a great time. I would not hesitate to recommend Doris as a sitter. Brownie has stayed with Doris several times now and she always comes back happy and in great shape. Thank you so much!”
“Lisa was once again amazing with Kai. He is very comfortable with her. Lisa made sure to update us often and sent many pics and videos of Kai during his stay. I will always recommend Lisa and will continue booking with her! Thank you!!”
“Michelle did a wonderful job taking care of our doggo while we were away with plenty of pictures and texts. Our dog loved her stay with Michelle. We would definitely book her again for further accommodations!”
“Krystal took wonderful care of our dog, Joules, while we were away for two weeks. We were initially nervous about leaving our older dog for that long, but Krystal made the experience completely stress-free. She kept us updated regularly, gave Joules plenty of attention and long walks, and clearly cared about his well-being. We came home to a happy dog and couldn't be more pleased. We highly recommend Krystal!”
“Kyle was so great with Darcy. He met up with us prior to her stay with him to get know her a bit and find out more about her and her routine. She took to him right away which made me happy to see that I’d be leaving her with a sitter that she really liked. He provided regular updates throughout her stay and was flexible on drop-off and pick-up. I really appreciate him taking such good care of her while I was away. Would highly recommend!”

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!
Mahfuza was very attentive to my cat, Juno, and communicative to me throughout Juno’s stay. The extra room had plenty of toys, a cat tree, beds, and its own window AC unit. I was sent many videos during my trip of Juno purring and having a good time. Would definitely recommend Mahfuza as a cat sitter!
Judith is one of the most reliable sitter i have met. My baby Ace was safe, comfortable, and well cared for while i was away. I really enjoyed the consistency and reliability in communication along with the daily updates/videos. I am in awe! I really can’t say enough about how great Judith and her family was to Ace. This was my first time leaving Ace alone and i was hesitant, but her warmth and love of animals was apparent from our first meet. Phenomenal job taking care of Ace Judith 🤎🐩🙏🏾 I will absolutel be booking 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!
My dog had a great time with this sitter! She was very caring towards him and sent us daily pictures and updates. My dog came back very happy and healthy!! I appreciate her being so kind and warm during his stay. I will definitely book her in the future…I highly recommend her! Thank you.
I have used Robin's services before and it was easy to contact her and keep in touch with her. Robin made sure my cat ate even when she was in hiding. She sent me pictures and I was able to pick her up after the snow storm. I will always use Robin for my future needs.
Arianna is amazing. Reading her profile her standard of care about her business and the animals. I knew I wanted to book with her but we still set up a FaceTime to make sure. Her disposition is so sweet; I knew Bodhi would be in good hands. He was with her for 4 days and I got to see him, hot pics and updates. She’s now my go- to sitter for my furr baby.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Howard Beach on Rover is $44.4 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 14,241 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
