“Sandy was wonderful. This was my very first time using Rover and a sitter outside of my family or friends and couldn’t have gone better. Looking forward to using Sandy again! Thank you! :)”

“Alev is wonderful! Susie is so comfortable in her home and very loved. Alev keeps us updated with daily photos and even treated her to a “pup cup” at Starbucks! Alev is a kind, soft spoken woman who makes us feel so very comfortable when traveling. Thanks Alev! 👍😘”

“Korin was such an attentive and AMAZING 5 star sitter for our Roise!! We went away on vacation for a week out of the country and she made sure to contact us every single day with updates as well as sending us lots of photos and videos in which we greatly appreciated! She did very good with our Rosie! 10/10 highly recommend to be used!! We will be using Korin again for the near future any time we are going away for sure!! Thank you Korin for everything!!”

“Toni and her husband took such good care of my dog Millie. Very reliable and flexible. She gave me updates every day with a picture and treated her as one of her family! Thank you and thanks for being so accomodating!”
“Trisha was great, she kept us in the loop with pictures and texts the whole evening. It was the first time we left our dog Jax who’s 1-1/2 old boxer with tons of energy. Thank you Trisha and we will definitely leave Jax with again and again.”

“Bear was very comfortable with Yi and his family, which, puts me at ease. I will definitely recommend Yi AND I have every intention on using him again when my family head out of town.”

“Sal’s 3rd stay with Theresa. He literally pulls me to the door when I drop him off. She is fantastic and Sal gets plenty of exercise with her. I will be back again”

“This was my first time ever leaving any of my dogs with a pet sitter, so it was a nerve-wracking experience to find the best match for my young puppy. John put my fears at ease during my pup's stay of over two weeks by providing regular updates. I will absolutely use his services again in the future!”

“As usual Max was well cared for by Patrick and Karyn. They treated him with kindness and gave him so many extra holiday treats. They are dedicated, thoughtful “pet parents” who obviously love what they do. We couldn’t be more pleased!”


“Maria was awesome! We are very reluctant to leave our baby, Kona, when we go away, but Maria took amazing care of her and kept in constant communication through pictures and texts throughout our time away. We will definitely be using Maria for future boarding!”

“This was our first time using Rover. I was very reluctant to use a person I did not know, or friends didn't know. However, I am so glad I took the chance with a 5 day/overnight in Sarah's home. It's a relief she only takes one animal at a time since our dog doesn't like other dogs. At the meet and greet, Sarah asked many questions to get a feel for Milo (eating & bathroom habits, walking, sleeping habits etc...) To start, her home is absolutely immaculate. I received a daily update with pictures on how our dog was adjusting & doing overall. Milo was displaying some quirky behaviors which Sarah reported right away & thought was cute/funny. She was very accepting, flexible in many ways, and an absolute delight to talk with. It is apparent she is a dog lover! Upon pick up, Milo was happy and all his belongings were packed & ready to go. We plan on using Sarah again for our next trip, if she's available.”


About: What sets me apart is my professional experience as a dog trainer specializing in behavior modification and working with challenging dogs, including reactive, fearful, and aggressive cases. I understand canine body language, behavior, and communication, allowing me to safely manage situations that many sitters may not be comfortable handling. I provide a structured, calm environment with clear boundaries, enrichment, and individualized care tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether caring for puppies, adult dogs, or seniors, my focus is on building confidence, reinforcing good behavior, and ensuring every dog feels safe, secure, and understood while in my care. Pet care is my full-time career. As a professional dog trainer and pet sitter, caring for dogs is a daily part of my routine. I work closely with both pets and their owners to provide training, exercise, structure, and companionship. My goal is to help create happier, well-balanced dogs while making life easier and more enjoyable for their families. I prioritize safety, structure, and trust in every interaction. I follow each pet’s routine, provide appropriate exercise and enrichment, maintain a secure environment, and communicate regularly with owners. As a professional dog trainer and sitter, I focus on creating a positive experience that keeps pets happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I have 2.5 years of experience working as a veterinarian assistant for a family-owned and operated animal hospital. Aspects of my job include restraining, handling, medicating, feeding, grooming, bathing, and caring for any pets who may board with us at the hospital. I have comfortably handled dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, needs, and temperaments, and I am confident in my ability to care for dogs of all life stages. My schedule is extremely flexible and I am never away from home for more than four hours any day of the week, which means plenty of time for potty breaks, playtime, and feedings. I have a fully enclosed, insulated, temperature controlled, spacious gazebo on my property surrounded by a pet-proof fenced-in playpen. The inside is divided into four sections, so I can board up to four dogs no bigger than 40lbs at one time, and each pet will have his or her own space indoors for eating and sleeping. Outside, the pets will be able to interact and play, and they will always be supervised.
“Joselle and her family were great! She kept us updated with pictures of our dog Scout walking, playing and relaxing. Scout came home healthy and happy! We highly recommend Joselle for all your pets needs!”

“This was our first time booking with Brenda, and she did an excellent job of making my pup feel at home and putting my mind at ease. She really treated Gracie as if she was her own, with lots of affection, play, and exercise. She did a great job of communicating with me also, sending updates, pictures, and videos. I would definitely book with Brenda again.”


“Kathy was an amazing pet sitter. My dog stayed for three nights and had the best time playing with her sweet dog Ollie. Kathy was incredibly attentive and kind. My dog had hurt her leg prior to going over there and she even took the time to gently massage her leg ( after checking with me) It really meant a lot knowing my dog was so cared for uncomfortable. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kathy again and highly recommend her!”

“Teddy, our standard poodle puppy had his first stay with Laurie. We cannot be more pleased with the care he was given, including a puppy bath for himself and his toys. Teddy was so comfortable at Laurie's home and it was reflected in his behavior when we picked him up after a five day stay. Laurie runs an extremely caring, clean and disciplined home for the dogs she cares for. We will certainly be using Laurie for our future trips. Cannot say enough good things. Happy Teddy & happy owners. Thank you. Bob and Mary”

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!

Kerri was a fantastic sitter for my active lab. She kept me updated and sent tons of pictures daily of him having the time of his life. They cared for him as if he was their own and I couldn’t be more grateful. Macallan cannot wait to stay with Kerri and her family again!

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

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Lake Ronkonkoma on Rover is $61.05 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 2,088 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lake Ronkonkoma. About 90% of Lake Ronkonkoma 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.

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.
