“This was my first time ever leaving my baby Kali with a sitter. Polina was very caring and she kept me posted on how he was doing with her. I will use her again in September. Thank you Polina!!!”

“Kiera took such wonderful care of my senior guy! I dropped him off at her home while I moved into my new place and I had such peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Kiera sent me pics and videos of Chico playing and out on walks with her sweet senior girl! I will definitely bring Chico back to Kiera’s in the future.”

“It appears Nicholas enjoyed his time with Mary too much! He has been moping around the house getting used to a home without more people and pets. It was great receiving daily pictures and the care couldn’t have been more loving. I will definitely try to book with Mary whenever I travel in the future.”

“Jocelyn ha been amazing! She is very responsive and keeps me informed all the way thru each pet- sitting experience with photos and texts throughout the day. She is so loving with my girl and always takes such good care of her! Highly recommend!!”

“Margaret was Sooo amazing! Last minute bookingand a new to being boarded kitty. It was great I got to learn how my kitty would respond in such a healthy environment.”

“Erix was so helpful in allowing a last minute stay for our dog. Our dog can be energetic and Erix was confident in his abilities to care for him, which was so appreciated. We'd certainly trust Erix services in the future! Thank you again, Erix!”

“Irina watched our two dogs, Sparty and Boss, while we took a weekend trip up to Canada! We didn't have cell phone reception while we were there, but we when we got internet connection we came back to wonderful videos and pictures, as well as updates! We felt our dogs were in great hands with Irina and that they were safe. We absolutely plan to use her in the future with our two four legged family members.”

“I always feel comfortable leaving my dog with Susan, she is great with her! I appreciate the time and care she takes as well as the regular updates and photos 😊”

“Prior to booking Kara, I hadn’t used Rover in years and was nervous about leaving my dog in the care of another person—we’re attached at the hip. However, I couldn’t have booked a better person. Kara is extremely communicative and caring, and had plenty of space for my pup to run around and explore. She asked lots of clarifying questions prior to booking, and I could tell she really enjoyed and remained curious about the personality of my dog! I received lots of pictures and quick responses. My energetic Staffordshire Terrier, Toto, enjoyed a long weekend of naps and sunshine, and returned to me vibrant as ever! Kara’s awesome care eased any worries I might have had, and I highly recommend her to anyone who might also be a reluctant helicopter parent like I am! If this if your first Rover rodeo, you can proceed with confidence, which is an amazing feeling to have.”

“If you want your dog to be in a loving, beautful home with great, responsible, happy, and experienced people - Becky and her family should be a top choice! She welcomed and took care of Ruby as if she was her own. Exercised and walked her often. Played with her and sent many happy pictures. Becky is a 5-star sitter!”

“Love love love!! My Onyx has the best night ever while Mom and Dad were away for the night. Jeane kept in communication with us and had us resting easy knowing our baby was so loved! We are in the area for work for a few months and I have uses a couple sitters here in SYR. Jeane is our absolute favorite and we can't wait for the next time Onyx can visit his new friends! ❤️”

“Alyssa was amazing with my little dog. I have a 6lb dog who loves human affection and acts more like a cat than a dog, and Alyssa made her feel right at home. Letting her snuggle up as close as she wanted, and sending pictures of her all comfortable to me throughout the stay! She was very accomodating on pick up and drop off times as we didn't have exact times. Thank you so much Alyssa! We will definitely be in contact when we need a sitter again!”

“Andrew and his wife took excellent care of our dog over the weekend. It was his first time staying with them, so they sent me several updates and photos to let me know how he was doing. When we picked him up, they sent me home with a handwritten note, dog treats, and a new chew toy. A very thoughtful finishing touch!”


“I left my almost 16 year old pug with Carrie and her husband while I traveled for 10 days to visit family. I know she was in great hands, she’s usually a little nervous at first but ran right up her steps when I got there as she’s been there before short term. Carrie sent me messages and pictures often enough. She got lots of outdoor time, was tended to her older age needs, and even got to sleep next to them as she’s used to it at home. I feel very lucky to have found her through Rover and I’d highly recommend her and her husband!”

“My dogs stayed with Bonnie for 2 nights. She was extremely responsive and took good care of my pups! She was also flexible with my changing itinerary. So grateful to have found her!”


“We are very pleased that our dog was in caring hands. We regularly received photos and updates about her well-being. This was our first experience being apart from our pet, and we understand that it was unusual for her and possibly accompanied by some difficulties. But the team managed everything and showed great care. At the end of her stay, our dog even received some lovely gifts. We are very grateful for this and will definitely turn here again next time. Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️”

“We did a trial run for our 9 year old lab mix who has some care needs and can be selective with people, to see if it would be a good fit for when we are out of town. Brent listened to and followed through with our requests and took good care of Buddy. We look forward to using Brent in the future when we are out of town!”

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Kirkville is $32 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $38 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 of October 2026, there are 209 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Kirkville. 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.
98% of sitters in Kirkville 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 Kirkville 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 Kirkville.
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 Kirkville 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.
