About: I've grown up with dogs all my life. My Eagle Scout project was to help create storage and kits for a dog rescue agency and since then I've helped foster 5 dogs and doggysat for numerous friends and family. I give dogs my time and attention and try to pay attention to their preferences and habits. I am a college student so I have flexibility to care for animals during summer and winter breaks. I love being able to chill on the couch next to dogs so they feel cared for and loved. I have a fenced yard and two very sweet dogs who have been mentors to our foster dogs. We have toybaskets everywhere and a regular routine for feeding and care.
“There are not enough good words to say about Kathryn!!! My dog Brody was in the absolute best of care. From the moment I dropped him off until the moment I picked him up! She was sure to send a lot of pictures and videos. I can tell she truly has a love for animals. She made sure Brody felt right at home!!! Not only would I be using her again for my dog- I would HIGHLY recommend her services. She clearly has a lot of experience, knowledge, and love for animals!! I am so happy to have found her that I can leave my dog and have not a worry in the world - because he was in the best of hands with her. So thankful to have found the best dog sitter around!!!”

“Toni and family watched our 1 yr old Staffy, Rocky while we went away on vacay for about 5 days. We got regular pics and updates on how he was doing which helped with peace of mind. Rocky was on a special diet and meds due to tummy issues a couple of weeks prior and Toni was very accommodating. She also kept Rocky separate from her dogs due to him not being used to having to share space with other pups which I appreciated. Rocky seems to have been well taken care of and we would definitely use Toni's services in the future if need be.”

“Maria was amazing! From day 1, she was attentive and had open communication with us about Stella and Hunters' progress. She facilitated a comfortable and fun environment, and we were pleased with the overall experience. I would highly recommend Maria and would work with her in the future”

“I am so happy we found Apryl! She treated my fur babies (3Poodles) while we were away with such great care. She was able to take my dogs with last minutes notice. Apryl sent daily pictures, videos and responded to our texts quickly. This made me able to truly relax on my vacation. I highly recommend Apryl and we will definitely be using her again. My dogs loved her too. Our boys got along great with her dog as well.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, both small and big! I absolutely love furry friends and have one of my own. I have a small, older cockapoo named Riley and I’ve taken care of him since he was a puppy and I was in 8th grade - I actually had to pitch an entire care plan to let my mom allow me to have him! I work entirely from home and have a calm, quiet environment. I work entirely from home and have breaks throughout the day where I’d be able to play with your furry friend! I work both during the day and overnight, and will be able to tend to your dogs needs hourly at the very least! I have a fenced yard and a small cockapoo who is calm and friendly. I have a small crate as well if that is supportive for your pup! My home is calm and stress-free. You can count on regular updates, photos, and honest communication while your pup is in my care!
“This was our first time leaving our dog to any sitters house. We were nervous how our dog will react but Daniel made him feel at home. If we messaged him to see how our dog was doing, he would answer right away with pictures. Our dog was able to run and play all day. We will definitely be using Daniel’s boarding service again.”

“Lorena is an angel. Our family came with a special kind of crazy this trip including changing dates of pickup and all sorts of chaos, but Lorena handled everything with ease and kindness. She was excellent at communication and I could tell from all of the pics and videos that Birdy was having a great time at her place. Birdy brings a lot of energy when she's first meeting a new person, and Lorena seemed to welcome her with open arms. I give her the highest of praise. Really wonderful to work with.”

“We needed someone who will take care of my mother-in-law’s Gigi urgently for a few nights. She took us last minute and was very accommodating. There’s a certain kind of conviction when she said we’ll take care of her…and she did! She knows what she’s doing. I like that she updates us daily, responds really fast and event sent photos even without being asked. She’s not just a pro but with excellent customer service. Will definitely recommend her.”

“Marybeth was so sweet and you can really tell she wants to do everything in her power to make your dog feel at home/safe/and comfortable. Will use her again when traveling. Thankful for her!”

“My two pups are my babies and leaving them with someone I didn’t know for the first time was overwhelming. Chris immediately put us at ease and my boys loved him. We were updated daily with photos which made it just a little easier to be away from them. We also have one reactive dog that Chris handled very well. We felt so comfortable leaving our dogs with Chris and will absolutely be using him again in the future. Thank you Chris!!”


About: Hi! I’m Jo, and I specialize in caring for small dogs who are used to being someone’s whole world. After struggling to find a sitter who truly only takes one dog at a time, I decided to become the kind of sitter I was searching for. I know how hard it is to leave your little one with someone else. Small dogs aren’t just pets — they’re shadows, cuddle buddies, emotional support systems, and family. They thrive on attention, routine, and feeling safe. That’s exactly what I provide. If the thought of your small dog feeling scared or lost among a pack worries you, you’ve found the safe place you’ve been looking for I work from home so will be able to give full attention. I understand small dog energy — from clingy Velcro pups to sassy little bosses. I’m patient, attentive, and very tuned in to their comfort and routines. Right now, caring for my own small dog is part of my everyday life. I follow a consistent routine with regular walks, feeding times, play sessions, and lots of affection throughout the day. I make sure my dog gets enough exercise but also has quiet time to rest, especially after walks or play. I’m very attentive to their behavior and mood, so I can quickly notice if something seems off.
About: I have been a dog walker for my neighbor for 5 years. I have experienced in pet sitting small and big dogs, as well as puppies and senior dogs. In my free time I walk senior dogs from a shelter. Over these years and with all my experiences, I have learned dog expressions and warning signs which help me to prevent dogs from any triggering behavior. I’m am a college student and work a weekend job. During the week after classes I have free time to dog walk. I keep my calendar updated regularly for any days where I might not be available throughout the week. I live in an apartment, which is why I choose only small to medium sized dogs to board. I have a large yard that is fenced except for the driveway entrance, for your pets safety I only take dogs into the yard with a leash and as always constant supervision.
“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: Dogs have surrounded me since childhood, and many of them were rescues, giving me experience with a wide variety of breeds, personalities, and needs. Caring for dogs has always been a passion of mine, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. You can have complete peace of mind knowing your beloved furry family member will be safe, loved, and exceptionally well cared for, so you can travel or enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind, knowing your beloved four-legged family member is safe, happy, loved, and receiving the same level of care I would give my own pets. I live and work from my private home. Your pup will find I have plenty of time and room to take care of them. Your VIP dog will receive loving care and boarding. Rest assuredly when you’re in need of doggie care! I have a home with a private fenced in yard and have two friendly pups of my own and a large separate area for your pets if required. Since I work from home they will not be alone, which is very nice to know.

“Our Jack Russell terrier had a terrific time with Catherine and her family! Catherine is super-friendly and really knows, and loves, dogs. We are so happy with the care Cosmo received and all the great photos of Cosmo Catherine sent us every day we were away. We will definitely ask Catherine to take care of Cosmo the next time we travel!”

Korin was so kind and accommodating for Penelope. She even sent me updates and pictures 🥹 as a first time cat mom i really appreciated how communicative she was. Also very flexible with her schedule which I really appreciated. I would recommend her to watch over anyone's animal!

Ashley saved Christmas! We have an allergic nephew and needed to drop Moby off somewhere. Ashley accepted Moby and he had a blast with her dogs and her enormous gated property. The most fun he’s had in a long time! We are very grateful Ashley was available for the holiday booking.

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Middle Island on Rover is $62.83 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 1,179 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Middle Island. About 92% of Middle Island 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.
