“Jen was amazing. Took my boy on the shortest of notice and sent pictures the whole time. My boy had a health concern that wasn’t bad enough for her to call me while I was away but was worth mentioning when I picked him up which I can’t even say how much I appreciate. I’ve had bad experiences leaving him before so I get very nervous but 10/10 I’d trust Jen with my dogs any day and would go out of my way to book with her again.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Bailey watching Rip and Thor. She communicated well throughout their stay, kept us updated, and clearly took great care of them. She gave them good walks and played with them regularly, and it was obvious they enjoyed spending time with her. Both dogs were happy and comfortable the whole time. We would definitely book Bailey again and highly recommend her!”

“This was our second booking with Stephanie. She was very accommodating with our dog. It was so helpful that she dropped the dog at our home just as we arrived back home. Our dog arrived happy and well cared for. Stephanie has been reliable, a good communicator, and flexible with each of our bookings. We couldn't ask for a better fit!!”

“Awoo was awesome and Ruby had a great time. It is always nerve wracking dropping off your dog at a new place but as soon as we got there, we knew it was a good choice. There’s lots of space for the dogs to roam in a fenced in area and Ruby made some new friends. Awoo was very responsive and sent pictures when I checked in to see how she was doing . I would absolutely send Ruby here again!”

They took great care of him, and he was clearly comfortable and had a total blast with tons of playtime and fun. They’re such a sweet, positive and energetic family, so glad we found them. Thank you!”

She sent me sweet photos and responded to my messages very quickly which was much appreciated. She took her into her home and everyone was happy. I am hoping to back up Karen’s way more in the future and will 100% use Karen again and also highly recommend her to other dog parents!!”

“Omg, we’re so thankful for Geena! Story time, so our previous sitter was unavailable but the app said she was available (technology lol). So we were worried because we didn’t have a backup plan and we needed a sitter for my grandma’s funeral. Geena was so helpful with last minute arrangements and made us feel so comfortable with leaving our fur babies for the day. She responded to all my messages, questions and even sent pictures. We were able to attend the funeral with no worries and even booked her again for our vacation. I would definitely recommend using her and we will continue to book with her. Thank you again 💜🫶🏾💜”

Barley loved his “sleep over” playing w/ Jaya’s cute pup Biscuit in her big back yard. She made me feel like Barley was safe & would be cared for just like her own. We’ll surely be hoping she is available again for our next pet sitting need. Thank you Jaya !”

They made sure he was comfortable, got plenty of love, and stayed on his routine. We could tell right away that they genuinely care for the pets they look after. We loved getting updates and pictures—it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Chelsea and Chris went above and beyond to make sure he was safe, happy, and well cared for. If you’re looking for sitters who will treat your pet like family, Chelsea and Chris are the ones. We can’t recommend them highly enough and will definitely be booking with them again!”

John took care of our 12 year old female husky for a week and did an amazing job. He played with her and gave her a few walks each day, which was great because she loves her walks. John also gave us multiple updates each day so that we knew she was doing well. I would highly recommend John to anyone looking for someone to take great care of their pup.

CB. was great. My dog Tony was left with Cari B. For one week while I was away and Tony was Cari’s focus. She sent me updates consistently of his wellbeing while i was away. Tony has a specific diet and Cari managed it along with his medical issue. I highly recommend Cari to all & she definitely does with her heart in the job. Julianne,

We had such a great experience with Taylor watching our dog Montie 🐾! She was kind enough to accept our request last minute for a longer stay, which we really appreciated. She sent us lots of photos and videos throughout our little guy’s stay and kept us updated -which gave us so much peace of mind. Most importantly, Montie seemed so happy when we picked him up! We would definitely have him stay with her again. ❤️🐾

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Milton Center

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Milton Center is $48 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $41 and $65 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 354 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Milton Center. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

95% of sitters in Milton Center can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Milton Center 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 Milton Center.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Milton Center. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

You and your Milton Center 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 NY 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.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
