“Sonia is an amazing dog sitter! Very kind, caring and responsible. Treated my dog like her own. Lives in a beautiful neighborhood to walk dogs. Very easy to talk to and arrange dates and times. Sent pictures every day. My dog made new friends and had a nice vacation with Sonia and her family.”

“Desi had a wonderful time with Erika. Desi is very shy at first but she warmed up to Erika quickly. The feeling was apparently mutual as she told me Desi would be welcome any time. It's such a comfort to know your dog is being well cared for when your gone.”

“Rich is great with communication and making sure our dogs are safe and having fun. He even prepared a special holiday meal over Christmas for all of them. So happy he was available to care for our two dogs.”

“Karine was absolutely wonderful. We could tell our pup was expertly cared for during our time away. He had an amazing time with Karine, her husband and the other dogs. She was very consistent with updates, and made us feel at ease during the whole stay. We would recommend her to anyone 1000%”

“Nicole was a FANTASTIC dog sitter/boarder, yet again! We were away for almost two weeks, and she was in touch with us everyday with pictures of our dog as well as updates on what she was up to. It made being away from Ava (our dog) guilt-free as we knew she was having a blast at Nicole's and being so well cared for. We will absolutely be using Nicole again as a dog boarder and would highly recommend her!”

“First time back on Rover in a while. Needed a find a new dog sitter for a long weekend away and found Nandita. Excellent sitter. We met before the stay to see if my lab would get along with hers. They did and it gave me confidence that it was going to be a great weekend for my dog Cooper. Lots of photos/videos and updates during our time away. Communication was great. Happy dog = happy dog Dad. Thanks Nandita! You rock.”

“Andrea was so responsive when my usual sitter cancelled last minute on a holiday weekend. She took great care of my dog and if I’m ever in the area again I will definitely use her!”

“Millie seemed to have so much fun at Barbara’s house with Big Lou and the other dog guests. Barbara is kind and clearly loves dogs. We felt confident that Millie was in good hands. She’s been napping all afternoon after her mini-vacation with Barbara.”

“I had a good experience with Alena and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable to care for their dog. She stayed in touch with me throughout Dewey’s stay and sent me photos and updates, which I really appreciated. I felt comfortable and confident leaving Dewey in her care and knowing he was being well looked after. I would be happy to have her take care of Dewey again in the future. Thank you, Alena! 🐾❤️”

“Kevin was super kind and easy to work with! Communication was great from the beginning as he was prompt with accepting my request. I received pictures during the stay which I appreciated and helped keep my mind at ease. He asked plenty of questions to make sure everything went smoothly. My baby was her jolly self when I picked her up which lets me know she was well taken care of. He clearly has a true love for animals. I would absolutely use Kevin services in the future and recommend you give him a try 10/10.”

“Diana is a lovely person and did great with our 2 dogs. This was our first time bringing them to a sitter and she made us feel at ease. She is very communicative and flexible, and sent us daily updates. I highly recommend her and we will definitely be booking again on our next trip!”

“Saori took fantastic care of our large doodle Toby for two weeks while we were traveling. We received daily updates with pictures and videos, which was really great. Toby had so much fun and will be going back next time we travel. I highly recommend Saori to anyone who needs a skilled and kind person to care of their pet.”

“Carrigan was a wonderful sitter for our pup, Shea. We just moved from NYC and I wasn’t sure how Shea would fare in the suburbs but Carrigan and her dogs were so sweet and playful. Shea had a wonderful time and I would definitely recommend her as a sitter for anyone looking.”


“Anastasiia was the best! Took great care of Mars and even got him out on some hikes. She is very communicative and thoughtful with our guy. Would highly recommend and will definitely book again.”


“Stephanie took our doodle on short notice and showed him a good time. Our pup is rarely alone with work from home situations and Stephanie indulged his need to be with humans. Our dog came home happy and we are thrilled with how his first overnight went. It’s worth mentioning that our guy is epileptic and unmedicated and Stephanie was totally okay with that fact (fortunately he didn’t have a seizure under her watch).”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Katonah
Joe, the dog-whisperer, did a great job for us. We had used him a couple of times for a night or two and we were going on a two-week cruise. We had him stay at the house with Barry, our beagle. He located himself in our finished basement suite, brought his own provisions and was very respectful of our house. He got Barry to fetch and was working on "paw" with him. We got great updates while we were away. He and Barry got along great.

Irene and her husband are incredibly kind sitters. We had to book at the last minute, yet Irene was able to arrange a stay for our old, arthritic pup and provide Ruby with devoted attention. They have a clean, safe environment in a nice, wooded area and communication with us was top notch.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Katonah is $78 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $67 and $86 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 2,498 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Katonah. 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.
95% of sitters in Katonah 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 Katonah 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 Katonah.
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 Katonah 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.
