“Ian and Clementina were great with Tripp, from taking him to the dog park to letting him join all their errands. I really appreciated the prompt communication and daily photo updates — Tripp was comfortable and rolling over for belly rubs almost instantly with them!”
“Kecia was so wonderful with our dog, she is very caring, patient, and loving! Throughout the few days our dog stayed with her, she cared for our dog as if she was one of her own. Kecia is very communicative, provided updates and pictures and seemed to really understand our dog's quirks and needs. We know she is good hands with Kecia. Highly recommend Kecia!”
“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!”
“Sabrina took wonderful care of my dog. I had to book the boarding last minite, but Sabrina was very accommodating. She responded to my messages quickly and also kept sending me photos of how my dog was doing which gave me peace of mind. When I was picking him up, Sabrina explained in detail how he ate, slept, walked and behaved during the stay. This proved to me that Sabrina paid a lot of attention to my dog. Most dog sitters in my experience didn't share this much detail. I highly recommend Sabrina!”
“Took great care of StarFox! I know my dog enjoyed his stay and I appreciate all the time spent with him playing and walking. My dog had a prior injury and he got the best care and attention possible, even a visit to the vet, medical instructions, everything was taken care of. My dog was taken care of like he was family! My dog is a clever fox, so he can be a handful sometimes. Fantastic job and would definitely book again when I’m out of town. Great photos too and updates!”
“Kiersten and Casey are the best! My pup is always so happy to see them and feels totally at home with them. Kiersten sends the best photos throughout the day which always makes me smile.”
“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! (:”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received. From the moment we left, we had complete peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and capable hands. They went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for, while keeping us updated with photos and messages throughout her stay”
“Booked a last min 5 night stay for my senior golden retriever! I sent an essay of instruction and Starry + Gio did an amazing job taking care of him. It was literally the coldest winter/weekend in NJ/NY area in the past 10+ years. They kept me updated constantly with walk pics throughout the day and pics of him in general! I was very happy to know that their dog (Walnut) is a sweetheart and gets along well with my dog! Highly recommend if you’re looking for a reliable and responsible couple to dog sit. Will definitely use again. Thank you!”
“I’m anxious without my dog and Michael made sure both my dog and I felt reassured my dog was living his best life. Michael updated me with photos everyday and I really appreciated that. Also, he was super cooperative with schedules and dog routines. Lastly, I was very impressed by the feedback/report on overall performance of my dog over the two week stay that he gave when I went to pick up my puppy. I knew a 9 month old portipoo could be a ball of problem but Michael handled it like a pro.👍👍👍 I would definitely come back”

“We felt totally comfortable leaving Archie with David and Marcy for a week while we ran off to get married! We were able to totally relax knowing our little guy was in good hands. They send pictures multiple times a day, are super flexible with pickup and drop-off times, and are overall just the best.”

Andrea and her partner are wonderful dog sitters! I could tell from every image sent that my velcro dog was having the time of his life. She is very communicative, flexible, and great about sending updates/pics. Our flight back to the city was cancelled and she was kind enough to be flexible with pick-up times. Her sweet puppy Teddy is friendly with all dogs from what I could tell and helped my anxious one open up. Thanks Andrea!
Susan is kind, cheerful and really accomodating, going above and beyond. We are really glad to add Susan to our pet family and will be using and recommending her to our friends and for our pet care. Great communication, active and attentive with our dog assessing when he needed walks, play and comforting. Timely and flexible helped us immensely with our constantly changing needs and itinerary. Thank you Susan I highly recommend your service.
We had a last minute scramble after our usual boarder told us they couldn't honor our booking before a 3 week trip... Found Yuliia thanks to her stellar ratings and had a great intro call to ask our questions. Really lovely, warm person and we immediately felt comfortable. This trust was well placed since our dog London came back so chirpy and in a great mood and clearly loved Yullia. Got all the photos / videos as promised throughout the trip and we appreciated all the walks he clearly went on. Thanks to this, Yuliia will now be our first call, ahead of the boarder that let us down in the first place. THANK YOU!!
Cameron was amazing!!!! She took great care of Gerald when I was traveling and needed someone to board him last minute. She understood I was anxious about leaving him with someone he hadn’t met before and gave very detailed updates every morning. Gerald can be a picky eater and Cameron gave me updates about how much he was eating every day and tried mixing in various different foods to try get him to eat (which worked!). It‘s clear Cameron really cares about the dogs in her care and I would recommend her to anyone!!
This was our second time booking with Breana and Adam, and they took amazing care of our dog! They kept us updated with photos and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Crush came home very happy. We'd absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them!
Jessica was so great with Bear! Bear is a very nervous little guy and she sent photos and video of him so happy with her and it made us feel so much better as we were travelling. She really understood how sensitive he was and was so patient with him and made him feel so comfortable:)
Casey treated my dog like her own, sent lots of great photos and updates, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Even better, my dog got to play and cuddle with her dog—they became the best of pals for the week! 😊 We’ll definitely book with her again!
We could not have asked for a better dog sitter from Summer! The wonderful attentiveness and care that Summer took watching for our lab was amazing. Summer kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog looked so happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for—a true testament to the attention, affection, and care they received. Simply, Summer is the best!
Bernadette took wonderful care of Barnaby; I never once worried while I was away. She sent plenty of photos throughout, which made it easy to see he was happy and well looked after. She was communicative from start to finish, quick to respond, and genuinely easy to work with. I’ll absolutely book her again and recommend her without hesitation.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in New York on Rover is $62 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 Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 14,157 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across New York. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of New York sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which New York landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
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.
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.
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.
