“Angela took great care of Mango during her stay. She was communicative and gave daily updates. I felt at ease knowing my dog was having a cozy and enjoyable time. Would recommend!”
“Maisha was an amazing sitter for my pup! She restored my trust in the Rover platform after a couple of not so pleasant experiences…and he smelled amazing at pickup! I received morning and nightly updates with pics. Will definitely book again!!”
“Deibi and Tiffany took wonderful care of my two dogs over a long weekend. I received detailed updates, photos, and videos everyday. Tiffany was super responsive and she’s so kind! My dogs didn’t want to leave!!!”
“Second time using Teraesa and I must say…her consistency will keep me coming back. Her amazing communication, constant checking in and willingness to go above and beyond says it all for me. She is a “super host” as far as Jazzy and I are concerned. My dog always comes home happier than when I left her and that says alot. Thank you Teraesa…you are officially and forever my dog-sitter!”
“Excellent sitter!! Would use her again and again. She was so attentive to my dog, treated him like her own. She gave him his medications on time every day! She was able to take my dog very last minute too.”
“Elena was able to take Kiwi last minute while I had a family emergency. Not only was she able to step in, she did an amazing job with Kiwi. I knew Kiwi was safe, all her meds were given to her exactly as needed and she got all of her daily walks! I got updates and pictures, Kiwi had a great time with her 🩷 I would absolutely use Elena again, I feel lucky to have found her. I highly recommend Elena for any pup but she did especially great with my sensitive, high maintenance girl.”
“Janise was amazing! She took such great care of our dog, Chiara. She was very attentive, kind, and made sure Chiara felt comfortable the entire time. We really appreciated that she sent photos and videos every single day — it gave us so much peace of mind. When we picked her up, Chiara looked happy, relaxed, and very well cared for. We would definitely book with Janise again and highly recommend her!”
“We booked with Sanaz for a long weekend and Ivy adored her! She sent us daily updates and took Ivy on lots of walks. Ivy gets very anxious when we go anywhere without her, and Sanaz was very understanding of her separation anxiety and made her as comfortable as possible. She also was flexible with timing of drop offs and pick ups which was much appreciated!! Thank you so much! (:”
“Yuan was amazing!!! I'm always nervous leaving my pup with someone new, but he ended up having a great experience with Yuan. She kept me updated with photos/videos and was otherwise fantastic to work with. I will definitely book with her again :)”
“First time boarding with Angela and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my baby. She is incredibly sweet and it’s obvious she has a special love for animals. I won’t trust my dog with anyone else now, so grateful to find her through this app. Angela goes above and beyond in all ways to make your dogs’ stay as comfortable as possible and she’s super easy to coordinate with. I’ve already asked her to watch my baby when I go out of town next month… when you find the right sitter you know!!!”
“Marika did an awesome job watching Duke! We booked 2 weeks in a row, and Duke was clearly happy to see her the second week. She’s very communicative and easy to work with! We’ll be back!”
“David was amazing! Communication was consistent and adorable and I really felt like Roman was welcomed into his family. He was amazingly chill when I picked him up, not straining to get to me like he usually is, which I think says it all about the excellent care he received at David’s home. I would recommend him to anyone!”
“Priyanka truly went above and beyond to take care of my senior dog. She is the best caretaker I’ve ever had in Rover would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Audrey was fantastic with Joey! Sent me frequent update pictures and he adored her so much he did not want to leave. Would highly recommend Audrey as a sitter and will definitely be using her services again”
“I really appreciate the attention and the care Jatna showed for my dog. I would definitely book her again in the future and highly recommend her to other people.”
“AMAZING! Anthony and Sofiya were amazing with my pet Avi! They sent me so many pictures and even let me FaceTime, which made me feel so comfortable while I was away. Anthony was super quick to respond to any questions, and Sofiya is incredibly sweet and kind. Together they were the perfect balance for Avi’s care. I felt completely at ease and will definitely be booking with them again. Thank you so much, Anthony and Sofiya!”
“Betty had the best best time with Kiersten and Casey! They communicate quickly and clearly and send lots of photos and updates- which I really appreciated receiving. Betty is shy with new people but she seemed right at home with Kiersten and Casey. Would one thousand percent book them again!”
“Krystal took wonderful care of our dog, Joules, while we were away for two weeks. We were initially nervous about leaving our older dog for that long, but Krystal made the experience completely stress-free. She kept us updated regularly, gave Joules plenty of attention and long walks, and clearly cared about his well-being. We came home to a happy dog and couldn't be more pleased. We highly recommend Krystal!”

Mihika is an awesome pupsitter. Super communicative, sent lots of photos and updates and my pup had the best time with her. She administered medications easily and checked in with questions, as needed. Would def recommend and use Mihikas services again. Thank you!
Ryan was terrific with Fala! We met outside Central Park a few weeks ahead of Fala's first stay so she could acclimate and meet Ryan's sweet older pooch. All went well and so did Fala's three nights with Ryan. I'm always nervous leaving Fala with a new sitter but Ryan was great about sending me lots of photos reassuring me that she was eating, exercising, and snoozing to her heart's content. I've already got another stay booked!
Jagruti is a lifesaver and a gem. She was super patient and kind with my nervous senior dog with especially complicated meds and dietary needs for 4 days/nights and kept me well-informed all throughout her stay. We will definitely use her services again and appreciate her care and attention to detail to accommodate my Stella’s special needs.
If I could give 10 stars, I would! Yulia is responsible, communicative, professional and caring. My dog is like a child to me but I was truly able to relax and trust her when he was under her care. Tons of photos and videos that reassured me of their days together, she honored the request for stairs for the bed (dachshunds and their backs!) and she even told me when they were saying goodnight! Already planning the next trip and will be booking her for sure!!!!
Carson was great! My dog, Maui can be anxious and has some triggers. Carson understood these perfectly and manufactured a fun & safe environment for my dog to hang out while we were away. She was also very accomodating to my schedule. All you could want in someone who will take care of your furry family.
Sunhgim took such great care of my 2.5 year old shihpoo. She sent us regular updates, including photos and videos, which made us feel at ease and connected with our pup even when we were far away. It’s been tough trying to find a great dog sitter that we could go back to when we’re traveling. Happy to say we found that in Sunghim! Will def be re-booking with her when needed 😀
10/10 service! Jeannie is professional, communicative, and has an obvious natural way with animals. My picky girl took to her instantly, and I felt completely confident leaving things in her hands. She also sent me the most adorable pics. You won't regret booking for your next trip!
Onur and Ekin took wonderful care of our Maki while we were away. They kept us updated with messages and photos, and it was clear she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Maki can be a little particular, so it means a lot to find someone patient and attentive who understands her needs. We came home to a relaxed, happy dog, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with Onur again. Highly recommended!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Manhattan on Rover is $64.2 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 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 14,544 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.
