“Ivette and her family did an excellent job taking care of my rat terrier for over a week. I had constant updates with pictures/videos almost every day. My little baby is a handful sometimes but they seemed to manage him well. They are trustworthy people and we will definitely use them next time we go on vacation.”
“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!”
“Ryan and Jefra are the best sitters any pets could ever have! Thank you for taking such great care of our doggos. Will definitely book your services again!”
“Alyssa is fabulous. She was very quick to respond throughout the booking process and during our pup's stay with her. Our dog was with her a full week and we received photos and short updates every morning. We could tell that our pup was happy and getting walks, playtime, and lots of belly rubs. I appreciated Alyssa's willingness to meet in person briefly, ahead of having her watch our dog. She's great--I hope to rebook 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!!!”
“Chloe and her husband were once again amazing with our dog! While we were away for the weekend we received tons of pictures of George looking happy and settled while at their place :)”
“Sarah gave Dante an outstanding stay caring for him while we were away visiting family do 3 days. She sent plenty of photos and kept us updated several times a day on how he was doing. She took Dante on 2-3 walks a day and gave him plenty of opportunities to make new furry friends at Central Park. Highly recommend Sarah and hope we can work together again!”
“Nicole was a great and super lovely sitter! Zorro was having slight residual tummy issues when I dropped him off and she made sure to keep me posted in his daily updates about how he was doing/if he was continuing to improve which I really appreciated! Nicole and her dog Chewie enjoy walks and just chilling which was a perfect match for Zorro's every and needs! Will definitely consider requesting her again!”
“Aydrian was fantastic, he made our pup feel comfortable and happy and was aware of all her routines and little quirks. She came home relaxed and happy! We will definitely book with him again”
“Michelle is lovely and our dog was so happy to be with her for a week! We really appreciated that she was able to work from home so our dog wasn’t alone for too long. Michelle sent photos and updates daily. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Lorraine went above and beyond for us when we needed someone for Kiwi last minute. Responded super fast and made Kiwi feel comfortable and relaxed. We truly appreciate all your help and will be reaching out again in the future!”
“Sarah was a great sitter for Mila! She sent frequent photos and updates. She was proactive in alerting me when my picky dog was not eating her meals or she was off in terms of her potty schedule in any way. Mila had a great time and on our neighborhood walks would even pull me toward Sarah's building. I travel often and I am so grateful to know that Mila will be in good hands while I'm away.”
“Yuan was by far the absolute BEST dog sitter I’ve encountered! She was communicative, compassionate, and loved my baby girl (Yorkie) like it was her own. I highly recommend Yuan’s services if you value professionalism and compassion.”
“I can’t recommend them enough! We were nervous to leave Elsa with anyone, but they were wonderful and treated her like family. The frequent updates kept our minds completely at ease. They were absolutely wonderful and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
“I highly recommend Steven as a sitter. Steve boarded my two 6 month old kittens for 5 days. I was impressed by his Rover profile that he focused on cat care since most profiles cater to dog sitting. He responded very quickly to my initial inquiry that he would be available. We had a call to make arrangements and Steve talked about his experiences with cat sitting which assured me that he would be a caring sitter. From the moment I dropped off my cats Steve was in regular communication with me, sending videos and pictures of them multiple times a day as they acclimated to him and his apartment. I could tell from the videos that my kittens were comfortable and happy with him. I wouldn't hesitate to contact Steve the next time I need someone to take care of my cats. Thanks again Steve!”
“Diana was very responsive and professional with my stay for my young high energy dog. She sent adorable pictures very often which made me happy while I was away. Her home is spacious and clean, and there's a backyard which was perfect for my dog to go potty in the snowy weather during my trip. Would definitely recommend and book again! Thank you Diana!!”
“Tiffany is so wonderful. She was so kind and sent us updates about our dog. We just moved to NYC and our dog has separation anxiety. She is the perfect companion for our pup Leche when we have to be away from home for long periods of time. So glad we found Tiffany.”
“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.”

Nika has been truly exceptional with our two Devon Rex cats. From the moment we drop them off, she makes them feel safe and genuinely loved—they’re engaged with and cared for like family, giving us complete peace of mind while we travel. Her warmth and dedication are remarkable. One of our cats needs daily medication and eye drops, and Nika handles his care beautifully, with impressive patience and skill. Her regular photo and video updates always show both cats relaxed and content in her home—a testament to how at ease she makes them feel. Nika is a rare find, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly. Anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter would be lucky to have her. Your pets will be in truly excellent hands.
We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter! She took amazing care of our dog for 24 days, providing plenty of love, attention, exercise, and updates that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We came home to a relaxed, healthy, and happy dog. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our furry family member!
Sophia was such a great sitter for our Teddy! She kept me posted the whole time and sent lots of pictures. Very easy to communicate with and Teddy came back to us and seemed like he was very comfortable and well taken care of. We would definitely recommend Sophia! And we will definitely be reaching out to her for any dog sitting needs.
We’ve stayed with Caroline multiple times, and Miko always has the best time! He loves the vibe there, especially spending time with BK and Stormy. Caroline is incredibly caring, reliable, and always keeps me updated. Knowing Miko is happy and well cared for gives me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend her, and we’ll definitely be back!
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She was thoughtful, caring, and genuinely kind to our senior dog. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our dog was safe, loved, and receiving such attentive care while we were away. Monique shared pictures of our dog throughout the day which was so welcomed. She was on time, upbeat and engaged. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, and we’re incredibly grateful. We highly recommend Monique to anyone looking for someone they can completely trust with their pet. We will always use her when we travel to NY!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
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.
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 14,583 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.
