“Kiersten & Casey really are the best sitters!! I am always at ease whenever Nalu stays with them, they do such a great job at always keeping me updated with lots of pictures!”

“My dog had a lovely time with Mitchell, who was super communicative and sent update photo every day. Marsha (Mitchell's dog) is sweet and was friendly to my dog when they met!”

“Napoleon had a great time with Jennifer. She gave him a ton of cuddles and attention. And she sent us plenty of pictures. Would definitely book with her again. 🥰”

“Ellana was a great sitter and Sully had a blast during his stay. Ellana gave us updates and sent a bunch of pictures. Will definitely be using again next time we leave town!”

“The minuet we met Patrice you could feel her warm and beautiful energy. Our dog Gatsby immediately trusted her and it made leaving him much easier. We received daily images and messages and could enjoy our holiday knowing our little one was in safe nourishing hands. Could not recommend Patrice more !!”

“Sabrina was amazing with magnolia! I’ve had unfavorable Rover experiences in the past so planned ahead and did a meet and greet. I could tell instantly how warm and genuine she is- she even read up on the notes before that meeting. I felt super comfortable heading into our weekend away. During the weekend she gave several updates and was generous with photos/ videos all descriptive of magnolias characteristics. I knew Magnolia loved her stay with Sabrina when I picked her up and she kept looking back for her to walk away with us! I will absolutely book with her again whenever she’s free!”

“Ashley was so amazing - she went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were cared for (especially when my little pup was having stomach issues unexpectedly). Nothing phased her and she was super communicative along the way. Can’t recommend her enough. Trust her 100%!”

“Chandi and her boyfriend were wonderful with Charlie, who can be shy around new people. They kept me up to date with photos, and I could see her relax within the first day. They treated her to a pup cup and lots of love. Will definitely use them again.”

“Miki is an excellent person!!!! Coco was happy and spoiled while I was giving birth my baby. Thank you Miki for your help and support. Highly recommended 🤗🤗”

“Anky was very communicative throughout the whole stay, taking time to send multiple updates each day. She also took my pup to the dog park almost every day! My dog had a blast staying at Anky’s and I’d highly recommend booking with her”

“Renzo was great! We had good communication with photos each day. He was also incredibly understanding about us being a few hours late to pick her up because of a flight delay. We would absolutely him again.”
“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!”

“They took great care of Mabel for 10 days. They kept her company and gave her chance to spend time w/ other dogs. Gave regular updates. Also I appreciated their screening process. Overall v happy”

“Cathy did a phenomenal job watching Vida. She was always responsive and accommodating. She took excellent care of Vida, and I would absolutely use her again.”

“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.”

“Hassandra was wonderful! She sent me many daily pics of my dog while I was away. I can tell she really cares about animals and spent the 10 days spoiling Scarlet with attention and love. I’ll definitely use her again in the future. Thanks so much, Hassandra!”


“Erica was amazing with my girl Sweet Potato! She was super responsive when I needed a sitter in a pinch, and was communicative throughout her week-long boarding, putting me at ease throughout. I will definitely request Erica to take great care of my kid in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New York
A lovely, easy, worry-free experience having our pup stay with Anne-Charlotte for a week. It was our first time boarding him for this long and with someone new but we felt from the start he was in good hands and we we’re right. Our pup has a lot of energy so he loved playing with her dog Norah nonstop and came back home healthy and happy (if only missing his new pal!). Thank you so much again!!!

Chantal is hands-down one of the best dog sitters we’ve ever had. She has watched our dog, Moose, multiple times, and we could not be more grateful to have found her. Moose absolutely adores her, and she treats him with so much love, patience, and genuine care. Moose has had some health struggles over the years, so leaving him can naturally be stressful, but Chantal gives us peace of mind. She is incredibly attentive to his specific needs and is a wonderful communicator, keeping us updated throughout. We love the daily update photos! Knowing Moose is safe, happy, and so well cared for while we’re away is priceless. We cannot recommend Chantal highly enough!

This was my first time having Michael take care of my dog, and I’m so glad I chose him. I was truly impressed by his quick responses, the daily updates with photos, and his thoughtful and attentive care. I was especially worried because my dog is a senior, but Michael took such wonderful care of her and gave me great peace of mind. I feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful sitter. I would definitely trust him with her again!

Audrey was communicative, caring and patient with my senior dog with cognitive decline. Milo has special medication and care needs which Audrey addressed well. I was worried initially to leave Milo for such a long time and relieved to find out that he was well taken care of. Audrey’s dog is adorable and was not an issue interacting with other dogs. I would recommend Audrey’s services to others.

Victoria is a great dog sitter - she took great care of our dogs while we were away for a trip. She was awesome at sending lots of pictures / updates on our pups, which was greatly appreciated. Would recommend Victoria to anyone looking for a reliable and responsible dog sitter.

An amazing and super accommodating sitter who stepped in amidst last-minute travel chaos with a welcome smile, then totally spoiled our Laika with walks and attention. We managed to escape Brooklyn with peace of mind that she was being well loved. Wouldn't hesitate to use again!

Amanda was great with our dog Pierre! They bonded the instant they met. She boarded him at her place for 10 days. She stayed in continual communication with us during our trip.. with daily updates and cute pics/vids of our little guy. That's honestly the biggest deal for me. :) We knew he was doing amazing the whole time. He loved his little life at her place. She's a genuine person, great pet care giver and I will definitely be working with her again! Thanks Amanda!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in New York on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of September 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 14,520 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in New York. About 88% of New York 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.
