“Ashley was so amazing - she went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were cared for (especially when my little pup was having stomach issues unexpectedly). Nothing phased her and she was super communicative along the way. Can’t recommend her enough. Trust her 100%!”
“Grace was a wonderful caretaker to Suki! Suki seemed very happy and comfortable with her. Grace was super communicative and I would love for Suki to stay with her again.”
“We left Phoebe with Angela for a short stint, and felt very comfortable. Angela is in a doorman building, her apartment is spotless, and she was on top of her duties the entire time. She sent us photo after photo showing Phoebe enjoying herself. When I picked her up, Phoebe dug in her heels and didn't want to leave. We will definitely repeat.”
“Aleksandr took such great care of our senior dog, Baxter. He was so patient and kind, even with Baxter’s stubborn moments and frequent accidents. We loved getting photo updates and could see how happy and comfortable Baxter was with him. We’d definitely have Aleksandr care for him again!”
“Priyanka and her husband showed great care for Sage during his 4 day 3 night stay. They are stellar animal lovers and will be my go to whenever Sage has boarding needs.”
About: I’ve always been surrounded by dogs, whether it’s my sister’s or my cousin’s dog. As a nurse, I already have the compassion and caretaking qualities. If you’ll entrust your best friend to me, I’ll give them plenty of love and care. I’m a night shift nurse working three shifts a week. I’m always trying to take advantage of the daytime to catch some sun- hopefully your dog will join me in those times on a sweet stroll. A firm believer in touching grass, I’d dedicate my stretches of days off when I’m not working to take your furfriend out for some much deserved playtime! I live in an apartment that is dog friendly. My home has plenty of space albeit a one-bedroom unit. There is a security system built into place as well.
“Mykala was awesome! She took great care of Saffy and was really flexible when my travel plans changed & I had to book an additional night. I've already booked Mykala again for my next trip and I know Saffy will be excited to see her.”
About: I got Mikan as a puppy 3 years ago and we’ve been 2 peas in a pod ever since. I also have experience pet sitting my friend’s dogs. I currently work on-site at the building I live in, and also have a 3 year old dog that will keep your pet company. My building has a fenced in dog run, and there are many places to walk in my neighborhood. I make sure that pets feel safe and loved when they stay with me.
“Willow had the best time!!! They really were so communicative, and helpful and sent so many pictures and updates it was a relief for me! Willow has special needs and they really made sure she was comfortable and put at ease and I can’t wait to use them in the future!! Thank you!”
“Meilin was an outstanding pet sitter for our dog Sally! She was incredibly detailed and responsive throughout the entire stay, sending regular updates and photos. Our dog can be challenging due to anxiety, but Meilin showed remarkable patience and understanding in helping her feel comfortable. She clearly went above and beyond to provide attentive, personalized care tailored to our dog's specific needs. Her genuine love for animals shines through in everything she does. We highly recommend Meilin to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional pet sitter who will treat your dog like their own.”
“Victoriia was an awesome care taker for my dog! She took her out frequently to play and walk, and made sure to send me frequent update photos. My pup came back calm and smiling. I could not recommend her enough. Would definitely book again!”
“Jatna and Ruby bonded from the minute they met. Ruby was immediately comfortable in Jatna's home. I could tell from the photos that Jatna sent that she was having a good time and was being well taken care of. I would not hesitate to use Jatna in the future.”
“I can’t express how amazing my dog’s stay was with Maisha. I literally won’t book with anyone else! She sent photos and video and was incredibly responsive. My dog had a blast during his stay. I will book again and you should too if you’re reading this!”
“David is absolutely fantastic! He took really good care of my pup and ensured that Buddy felt at home. Very happy with David’s services. I look forward to using his services again in the near future.”
“We left our little girl Violet, a very loved 5 yo Lhasa Apso, in the care of Sandra and San this past weekend. From the moment Sandra and I met, I could see how loving and caring she was for her own adorable pup, Penny. We did a meet and greet and Violet and Penny got along beautifully! We knew Violet would be in good hands. Throughout the weekend, we received pictures and we could see just how comfortable and happy Violet was! When it was pickup time, all her belongings were together and packed for home. We felt comfortable, confident and excited to find a place we can trust for Violet when she can’t be with us! We highly recommend Sandra and San! Your pups will thank you for it too!”
“Victoria was great and took great care of Momo while I was out of town! She was very responsive both before booking and during Momo's stay, provided a lot of updates, and Momo was clearly very well taken care of. I would highly recommend Victoria to anyone looking for a dogsitter!”
“Stacey and Andrew took amazing care of our dog Benny! They were so communicative, accommodating, and flexible. We would definitely book with them again in a heartbeat.”
“Rio had an amazing time with Tom, and I really appreciate the updates and pictures provided. I am definitely going to have Tom be Rio’s sitter again.”

This overnight was the beginning of what is turning out to be a longer emergency stay. My apartment sustained serious water damage and I couldn't have Fala here with remediation and demolition crews coming in and out. Fortunately Sammi and Jason were available and have been great about the extra nights I've added to this stay! I cannot wait to be reunited with my pup but I will be forever grateful for their care and flexibility, including purchasing dog food since I hadn't known to pack so much initially!
Our dog stayed with Mariah for two weeks and had a wonderful time! She sent daily updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Mariah was incredibly attentive to his needs and always quick to respond. We will definitely be booking with her again!
William was very professional and attentive to all of the requests I had for my cat, Lulu. He followed every instruction that was asked of him and showed up the exact time which was agreed upon. Lulu can be quite needy sometimes and William made sure to keep her stimulated and feeling at-home. She seemed to be quite happy with him around. Would definitely use William’s services again, much appreciated!!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Manhattan on Rover is $64.17 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 14,583 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Manhattan. About 88% of Manhattan 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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
