About: Years of experience caring for foster puppies and cats and kittens up for adoption. Amateur vaccination and grooming experience for dogs. House sitting experience for 2+ weeks for both dogs and cats in multiple households. I’ve had quite a few senior dogs in my care, and I love them all. I will be available pretty much all day until the end of July, I am a first year teacher so I still have some summer vacation left. After Augus 12th, I will only be available on afternoons and weekends. I love lists that pet owners provide with do’s and dont’s, including feeding, walking, and cleaning times. Routines are important for a lot of animals, and I want to give them as much consistency as possible while you’re away. I love animals, but I always make sure to give them the space they need when we first meet because I am a new person to get used to.
“She was great with Nora! She was super accommodating with my last minute booking and everything went smoothly. Very flexible with our pick up and drop off times which I appreciate. Would recommend her serviced!”
“Was a little nervous boarding my dog for the first time since my pup is an older hound mix. She took everything into consideration and kept me updated promptly and professionally with pictures. Bowie loved his stay and made some new friends while he was at it. I would highly recommend boarding with her.”
“Kaylyn was awesome! This was our first time leaving Riley with a sitter overnight so I was pretty nervous, but Kaylyn really knows what she is doing and eased all my worries. She is super responsive, sent tons of adorable pictures of Riley and her pup Ragnar playing and snuggling. Riley was very happy coming home and seemed like he had a good time, we will definitely be booking with Kaylyn again! :)”
About: My name is Patrick, my family has owned 6 dogs all from when they were puppies, I love dogs and will care for yours as if they are my own. I will walk with the dogs (run if requested) currently I have two dogs marlow and mimi one suffers from epilepsy so I know what to do if there are any problems with the dog or dogs. I can brush and groom dogs, I previously had a husky so I am used to shedding. My dogs love to go on walks, when I walk them I usually avoid taking the same route so they can have new smells and it seems to be more enjoyable for them. I love to meet new animals and learn about different breeds of dogs.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Manhattan is $32

Jessi did a wonderful job with our girl! She has a very clean environment, individual kennel space and we loved receiving the daily pictures. Our girl felt right at home besides having more fur friends to play with. She came home very happy. We highly recommend her. Truly worth every penny!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — Amazing Dog Sitter! I recently had my dog cared for by Colton and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that they genuinely love and understand animals. They treated my dog like family, and I felt completely comfortable leaving him in their care. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates, pictures, and messages that showed my dog having fun, getting plenty of attention, and being well taken care of. My dog can be a little shy with new people, but he warmed up to them instantly which says a lot about their energy and patience. The home was clean, safe, and dog-friendly, and they followed all my instructions perfectly. When I picked my dog up, he was happy, calm, and clearly had a great time. It gave me huge peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I highly recommend Colton to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with them again!
Sylvie was wonderful watching my puppy over the weekend! She was so accommodating in taking in a young puppy and made sure he was well cared for. I really appreciated the daily pictures and updates—it gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely trust Sylvie to watch him again!
Nicole was amazing! She took great care of my Annie. She sent updates and pictures which made me very happy. Nicole seems very knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors. My puppy started her period the day I dropped her off and Nicole took great care of her. Definitely recommend letting her watch your baby!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Manhattan on Rover is $31.08 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 74 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Manhattan. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Manhattan 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 Manhattan.
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 Manhattan 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 KS 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.
