About: As a graduate student pursuing a doctorate in Physical Therapy, I am responsible, attentive, and highly dependable. I understand that every pet has unique needs, whether that means keeping up with an energetic puppy, providing extra patience and support for a senior pet, or making sure anxious pets feel comfortable and safe. I am committed to treating every pet as if they were my own and keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they're away. I have been around dogs my whole life especially Rotties and Labs!:) Being a graduate student, my schedule is very consistent and predictable. I will be working M/W: 12pm- 8pm T/TH: 7am- 3pm Friday: 10am - 6pm If I’m not at work I’m with your pup! I will usually have a break throughout the day that allows me to come home or stop by for potty breaks, walks, feeding, and check ins as needed. My parents are also home so your pup will never be left alone for more than a couple minutes! Someone is usually always home. On weekends I am always around which allows me to spend the morning, afternoon and evening providing attentive care, exercise, playtime, and companionship. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and maintain their normal routine. At my home, pets have access to a fully fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor time, exercise, and play. I provide regular walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention based on each pet's individual needs. I live very close to my campus which gives me access to get home as quickly as 2 minutes for just incase purposes
“John was kind and attentive to our two dogs! He communicated well and was accommodating to our schedule. He ensured they ate at the proper time and provided plenty of updates, pictures and snuggles!”
“I had a great experience boarding my dog with Malissa I found on Rover. They showed a lot of love for my dog, sent daily photos, and have a safe, fenced backyard for playtime. Highly recommend them for anyone needing a caring place for their pet.”
“What a lovely family. They took such wonderful care of my Blossom. Diana sent me photos throughout Blossom’s stay that left me feeling like I made a good decision leaving her with them. Thank you so much. I know who to call for my next vacation.”
“Marla and Debbie were fabulous! They allowed us to stop by with Kacy to have some time with them prior to our trip (and to put me at ease). They have a great fenced yard for some exercise. They sent me videos of Kacy during our trip and she always looked happy. If you need a sitter, Marla is the one to book.”
“Kristin took wonderful care of our puppy, Scruffy for two days while my family and I were away. Kristin sent us photos and videos of Scruffy and was always available to respond quickly to our messages. Our puppy was in great hands while we were away. I will definitely look to board Scruffy with Kristin again on our next trip!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Ronkonkoma
Amber was amazing with our baby, Debussy! We had her take care of him for two weeks while we were away, and honestly, we couldn’t have felt better knowing he was with her. She took such great care of him, kept us updated, and sent us pictures and videos along the way, which gave us so much peace of mind. You can really tell when someone genuinely cares, and Amber treated him like he was her own. We’re so grateful for everything she did for our little guy. She’s officially part of our team now, and we’re so happy to have someone we can truly trust with our baby. We can’t recommend Amber enough! ❤️
Jennifer was such a great sitter and certainly deserves the star sitter status! She was extremely accommodating with our doggy meet up to make sure our puppy would be a great fit (and also extremely patient with Maya’s high energy!). From drop off to pick-up, Jennifer was in contact with us the whole time providing us with the updates and pictures she knew we needed! It was so difficult to be away from our fur baby for as long as we were but we felt comfortable with where she was and would 100% book with Jennifer again in the future!
Gabby is a great option for pet boarding. She is a very sweet and loving caregiver. My pup had a great time running around her back yard. He was well taken care of and I can tell he loved staying at Gabby’s “camp” for a week. She regularly sent updates and photos every day. I highly recommend Gabby.
This is the first time we are using Fanjing but she did great job with Chopper. He is a loving dog yes but need a lot of attention. Her and her husband never left his side. Thank you for that especially. I would highly recommend her to everyone who is looking for sitter :)
Our doggos took an instant liking to Kyla, whom from this first instance of contact was so incredibly polished and professional and really helped put us at ease. She sent is pictures for updates and answered all of our questions. We will definitely be repeats, our dogs had a superb time and hardly missed us at all
We can’t say enough great things about Samantha! This was our first time ever leaving our dog Luna with someone, and from the very beginning she made us feel completely at ease. She was kind, communicative, and treated Luna like her own. Luna was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved during her 3-night stay. We’re so grateful to have found Samantha and would absolutely trust her with Luna again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lake Ronkonkoma on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,010 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lake Ronkonkoma. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Lake Ronkonkoma sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Lake Ronkonkoma landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lake Ronkonkoma home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Lake Ronkonkoma.
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 Lake Ronkonkoma 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 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.
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.
