“Dew is the best of the best! From our first meet & greet to everything in between, Dew was responsive, flexible, and loved our pup as if he was her own. Our Bucky is quite the energetic pup and she went above and beyond to assure he was taken care of in just the right way. We can’t thank her more and will be booking with her again soon.”
“This was our second time boarding Billie with Sonia and her family, and we are so glad to have found someone local who takes such good care of Billie! Thank you to Sonia, Brian, and Vivian!”
“Joy responded quickly when I inquired about her availability and kept in touch with me during my pet Luna’s stay. She sent pictures and I could see Luna seemed happy and comfortable. It was Luna’s first time with Joy and hoping it won’t be her last. I highly recommend Joy.”
“Anner did an amazing job with my dog Leo. Updates and responses were quick and consistent. The enviroment is loving and nuturing. My dog Leo loved playing in the fenced in backyard. I would definitely use Anner again as well as recommend Anner to other friends and colleagues.”
“Erika was amazing. She kept me posted all the time with pictures and she helped my boy with his anxiety of staying away from us. The peace of mind of finding someone we can trust our dog with its really the best.”
“Rich was amazing! This was our first time with Rich and also the first time my pup stayed with anyone outside of family. My pup has pretty bad separation anxiety and Rich did such an amazing job at making him feel comfortable. He makes it a point to make sure all the dogs are feeling comfortable and getting along. My pup warmed up to the situation quickly and seemed to have a great time. He offers to send pics/videos as much or as little.. i of course opted for as much and I was updated every day throughout the day! I traveled from Brooklyn and it feels well worth it. Will continue to use him as my dogs watcher!”
“Arsenii was wonderful with my dog Genevieve while we had to be away for a family’s memorial. He was always kind, understanding, and sent me updates with pictures everyday without me having to ask. He also brought all her things (bed, food, toys, etc) back to my car when I picked her up, which was so generous. Genevieve also had the best time with them, and was very happy and relaxed. I’ll definitely be asking Arsenii to help out again in the future. Fully recommend him!!”
“Richard and Karen continue to be amazing. I appreciate how much they enjoy watching Maeve, and the feeling is mutual - her whole butt wagged when we walked up to their door for drop off! I know she feels comfortable there and I trust them 100%. Thank you both!”
“Amazing! Rafaelina was extremely accommodating last minute. Her love and support was incredible and the space provided for our pup is superb. She treats your pet like her own and your pet will have a blast.”
“First time leaving Toby with anyone. Must say we love Laurie, she keep instantly updating us with pictures. We felt secure at all time. If we ever need to leave our puppy Toby again definitely will be with Laurie. She is very loving and caring. Thank you Laurie!”
“Jocelyn was great with communication and accommodating specific requests. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs. I highly recommend her and will absolutely be using her services again.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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! 🐾❤️”
“Arianne and her family took such great care of Luke. This is the second time Luke has stayed with them and once again Arianne was very patient with Luke, helped him adjust and always kept me informed as to how he was doing. She sent me daily pictures and was very quick to respond to all my messages. When I picked up Luke he was very calm and he looked well taken care of. You guys are awesome!”
“Obi came back happy and healthy. He was well taken care of and Maxine was great at sending daily pictures, updates. We definitely were able to take vacation without worrying about Obi. Thanks to Maxine and family for taking care of our lil' guy.”
“Hayden and Colin were so amazing when we needed someone last minute to watch our dog Mitch for a whole month. They treated him like one of their own dogs and sent us so many pictures every day of all their cuddles and play time. It was such a relief to have someone we could trust while we were away. They helped give his medication and manage his upset stomach. Mitch is already missing his dog friends and can’t wait to come visit again.”
“Axl is a very reliable dog sitter. She was one of the few sitters that responded and didn’t cancel or ghosted me on the Rover. I truly recommend her for your dog care. Our dog - Peaches - stay at Axl home was amazing. Our dog had a lot of fun with her and her two other dogs. Peaches didn't even notice that we were leaving her with a new family. She was well entertained and taken care off. We were getting updates and pictures from our dog stay regularly. She really took a great care of our dog.”

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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.
