“Hassandra was a DREAM!! I have two dogs - a big one and a little one. And she took such great care of them both. I got regular communications and cute pics of them. She was incredibly responsive (which can be rare) which made me know I chose the PERFECT sitter for my boys while I was away on work. I will 10000% be rebooking her. Plus when I picked them up, I got to see how much they had grown to love her ❤️ She is the BEST - def book her with NO hesitation!!!!”
“Michael was super attentive to banjo! Great at sending update pictures, asking specific questions about his care, even separating him for meal time + accepting a door dash when he ran out of food. Michael really went the extra mile by keeping banjo for an additional night when my flight was delayed till late. Will book again!”
“Minako took such good care of Rex while we traveled out of the country! Always responsive and sent me lots of photos. Rex was happy when we picked him up. Definitely would trust Minako to watch Rex again!”
“Vasiliki took special care of my skittish and anxious dog, and by the second day, she was very comfortable around her. She sent updates every day and was very communicative. Would highly recommend booking her!”
“David and his wife were FANTASTIC! They treated my dog Tati with love and care. She has horrible separation anxiety so we are selective with who we trust but we would definitely hire them again. They sent regular updates and were really responsive. I’m happy to have found a reliable sitter in Bushwick and would highly recommend!”
“Kecia did a great job of taking care Minnie! I appreciate everything she did to make her feel comfortable. She took her on walks, had a nice outdoor space for her, and had a sweet dog that Minnie loved to play with. She also gave her plenty of treats! Thanks for taking good care of her!”
“Sashina was a life saver for me! When my Rover reservation canceled 2 days prior to my leaving on a 9 day vacation, I was stuck looking for a last minute replacement and Sashina came through for me! She was quick to respond and was very accommodating. We texted prior to meeting and I was very confident my expectations would be met. She did a great job! She provided me with daily updates and pictures. I felt like she treated my dog as a member of her family. I would use her again and highly recommend her!”
“My dachshund Aleph had a great time with Ayush and I suspect he didn’t want to come back home, so well was he taken care of! Ayush went above and beyond to make him feel at home and I was at ease during my vacation that he was in such great hands!”
“Anky took wonderful care of our dog while we were away for a week. She gave him lots of attention and exercise, and sent us lots of pictures and videos of him. We 100% trust her with our dog and are so grateful to have found her!!”
About: With 15 years experience in dog care, I am looking forward to hosting your dog. I will bathe your dog during the stay if requested. I will give a minimum of 4 walks a day and a lot of love at night. I work from home so your dog will get 3-4 walks a day at 8 am, 12 pm (dog park), 5 pm and 9 pm. In between those walks, your dog will hang out with me, cuddle and respond to my emails. I have a clean 2 bedroom apartment in stuytown. The apartment is baby proofed for my daughter meaning there’s nothing is nothing for your dog to chew on
“Great pet sitter! My dog is excited every time he sees them. Super accommodating. My dog has a strict diet and they had no problem with handling it. Always go above and beyond while taking care of Jeter. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“She was great with Max. Max loved her, she is very kind and cooperative. She updated me with lovely pictures of him and took great care of him. I would definitely have her take care of him again.”
“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! (:”
“Tiffany was great with Lou. Lou had a sensitive stomach problems that required some dietary changes and diligence. Tiffany was very diligent, communicative and friendly.”
“Tallin was a truly wonderful dogsitter! I've left my dog with very few sitters before, so I was a bit anxious about leaving him with a stranger, but Tallin put me right at ease with twice-daily updates and lots of photos. I will absolutely try to book with her again next time I need a sitter!”
“This was the second time Meilin took care of my dog, and as always, she did a great job! She sent me news and photos every day, and I knew he was happy and safe with her. I really trust her and I’m very thankful. I strongly recommend Meilin!”
“My furbaby was comfortable with Keirstin. He spent a day with her before his 3 nights of boarding. He was quite excited to see her again to start his boarding for which I was pleased to see. While we were away, Keirstin sent us photos and updates and she was very responsive when I asked questions about his settling in her home. Thank you Keirstin.”

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Suhani! She made a world of difference for my pup, Chuy, while we were traveling and he was getting used to life in a new city. She immediately offered to jump on a call with me on my tight timeline to help talk through Chuy’s needs and how she could help. She took the best care of him, and made sure he felt comfortable in every way possible. She very clearly had a passion and love for all animals, and I’m grateful Chuy had a chance to meet her!
Christina is the best! She loves our dog Kody like he's her own and he adores her. It is so obvious when we get back that he is happy, calm and feeling completely comfortable, like he's home when he's with her. She is so attentive, engaged and loving with him, a real pro as a care giver and just a wonderful person. This is his third stay with her and I can't imagine using anyone else.
Sarah is a very kind and patient sitter. Latte has some separation anxiety, and Sarah was incredibly patient and caring with him throughout his stay. She was also very quick to send photo updates and let us know how Latte was doing, which we really appreciated. We would definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again for daycare!
Maria was an excellent and attentive dog sitter! Her warm personality immediately put us at ease, and our two little dogs had a blast and warmed up to her and her place in record time. She sent us lots of updates and photos, which we really appreciated. She even picked up our dogs on a rainy day, which made everything so much easier for us. And somehow, she managed to make our crazy little Zuzu feel completely seen and understood (which is no small accomplishment! 😂). We felt very comfortable knowing our babies were in such good hands and would definitely recommend Maria!
Lynn was great. We met before Koa’s sleep over they could get acquainted. The pictures, videos and updates were just the right amount and made my business trip so much easier because I know Koa was in good hands/company. He looked like he had fun, was stimulated and got time to play. I will be booking with Lynn again.
Nicole is such an attentive sitter with my senior dog. It was the first time he had boarded with her for consecutive days, and she kept me updated along the way with thoughtful messages. I came back to a dog that was clearly well-loved. He was calm, not a lick of anxiety, happy and wagging his tail every time he looked at her. They've become best friends! I appreciate how much she cares about my little old man and his needs. The peace of mind is everything as you know with our babies!!
Erin is a magnificent dog sitter, she was very accommodating as I had to make arrangements on short notice for my Miniature Schnauzer Scout. I had total peace of mind while away knowing Scout was getting long walks through the park and lots of cuddles from Erin. Erin does a great job sending updates throughout the stay and is always prompt in responses, and was gracious in her willingness to work around some of Scout’s odd habits. Scout looks forward to her next visit with Erin and I’m thrilled to have found a reliable sitter in the neighborhood!
Rachel was amazing! She was very responsive and sent me lots of pictures and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands. He was so happy with Rachel and I knew he had an amazing time. I would definitely recommend Rachel and would happily book with her again!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in New York on Rover is $62 per night as of October 2026.

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 New York 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 New York 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 New York.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your New York 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.
