1. Kevin H.
“Kevin was extremely responsive, easy to work with, and sent so many videos and pictures of Kerby during his short stay! Definitely would recommend!!!”
2. Christina A.
“Lennox and I absolutely adore Christina! She is so sweet and welcoming. Lennox just completed his second stay with her and you can tell he enjoys her care and company! Lennox thinks he is the only pup in the world and Christina does the an excellent job of making him feel that way (lol). I love her attention to detail - her profile book with all the pertinent information, the special care (adding rice to his food to get him to eat) and the many photos and videos during his stay. There have been very few sitters I've found on Rover that have made me feel comfortable the entire stay, Christina is one of them! If you are fortunate enough to book her, do know your pet/fur baby will be well taken care of!”
3. George V.
“George took such good care of my girl when I had to go out of town last minute. I got pictures every day and constant updates. She already misses being with him. I will definitely be leaving her with him again.”
4. Chan T.
“Chan was a joy to work with and really took amazing care of Tico. She was very caring and kind with him, shared many photos and updates throughout the time she hosted him, and gave us the peace of mind we needed knowing he was in good hands. She gave him a lot of TLC and a lot of walks, and we’re so happy she could care for him. Will absolutely book with her again, and recommend her!”
5. Connie K.
“Connie, Dan, and Ellie welcomed Ralphie into their home and took such great care of him. I got photos (and videos) throughout his stay and I could tell he was well loved. Connie was super responsive to my initial inquiries and awesome throughout the booking process. Ralphie is an anxious older guy and I’m always worried trying a new sitter. If they will welcome him back, I’ve found his perfect sitter family!”
6. Natalia & Avraham D.
“We had a fantastic experience with Natalia and Avraham. They watched our dog, Winston, in their home for 5 days and updated us every step of the way. We received multiple pictures daily and they even had Winston playing with puzzles and new toys which he loved! He seemed very comfortable with them and they clearly are dog lovers as well. We will certainly use them again in the future!”
7. David R.
“Can’t say enough amazing things about David. Simply put, he 100% treated Mr. Goose as if he were his own. Not only did he send tons of pictures throughout the day, but he gave the sweetest updates! Genuinely looked forward to hearing from him! I can’t wait to use David again - not only because I truly, full-heartedly trust him with Goose, but more so because I can’t wait for them to be back together again. Goose had a blast, and so did David (!) and I can’t recommend him enough!!”

10. Shishi C.
“Shishi was amazing with my shy dog, Pete! She was patient with him as he settled in and sent lots of picture updates that made me feel at ease. I also appreciated her flexibility with pickup and drop off timing. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and communicative sitter!”
11. Svetlana G.

12. Peter M.
“Peter was very professional - great communication leading up to boarding our pup and all the way through. Our dog is very nervous but Peter worked hard right away to make him feel comfortable. I could tell from the photos that he was happy and having fun.”

“Marinna was so great with Kaia! She was very responsive and super flexible when it came to pick up and drop off. She sent tons of updates and listened to all the instructions I provided. I can tell Kaia loved her time with Marinna, even from the first time we met when Kaia went running right up to her. I’d love for Marinna to watch Kaia for me again! Highly recommend!!!!”

18. Abigail S.
“Lou had a great time with Abigail! She was very responsive to all of Lou’s needs and took extra care of her on New Year’s Eve when she was scared of fireworks going off. She also gave us updates and photos throughout her stay. We would definitely book with Abigail again!”
19. Megan S.
“Megan is a an absolute star. We were extremely nervous as this was Frankie’s first time being away from us. Megan made it so much more comfortable for us from meeting her before to having very easy companion dogs on stays that she knew well to sending us consistent updates and pictures. All of our fears were put to bed very early. We will definitely stay with Megan again and we know how attached Frankie was to her.”
20. Minako A.
“Minako was great with my pup! She kept me updated, took him to the dog run, and was flexible with our pickup time. Shep came home a pooped pup, so I know he had a blast with her. Highly recommend and I’ll be reaching out to her again for any future overnight boarding needs.”

Why do New York City dog owners choose Rover dog boarding?
From The Bronx to Staten Island and every borough in between, there are loving pet owners looking for just the right person to care for their dogs while they're traveling or away from home. Many dog owners turn to Rover, in large part because Rover dog sitters offer in-home dog boarding in New York City, which is great for pups and convenient for busy New Yorkers.
Why do dog owners love NYC?
New York City has a seemingly universal magnetism that can't be denied - especially for dog owners. Despite the fact that many New Yorkers live in infamously small spaces, the city is full of residents who are proud to call themselves pet parents. And with so many dog-friendly parks and outdoor spaces - including the incredible 843-acre Central Park - who can blame them? Plus, there's a Rover dog sitter or walker on just about every block, ready to care for their pups like they're their own.
What New York City neighborhoods do dog owners love most?
You'll find proud pet parents in every neighborhood and borough around NYC. Brooklyn is full of great parks and interesting places to visit, like the beautiful Brooklyn Botanic Garden in Crown Heights and the 6.8 acre Maria Hernandez Park in Bushwick. In Manhattan, there's the Chelsea Market to get lost in while sampling great food before heading to the Joyce Theater for a show. Morningside Park Dog Run in Harlem is also a great place for people and pups to socialize. You can't miss the tourist-friendly Midtown, with the Empire State Building, Times Square, and Tiffany & Co for an iconic sidewalk breakfast. The Bronx is full of parks and open spaces, from the small 9 acre Henry Hudson Park to the huge 2,764 acre Pelham Bay Park, there's so much to explore. If you've ever flown in to John F. Kennedy International Airport or LaGuardia Airport, you've been to Queens, home to neighborhoods like New Hyde Park and Jackson Heights. On the opposite end of the spectrum, there's Staten Island, with neighborhoods like Arlington and Woodrow, a hugely diverse wildlife population, and over 359 acres of state forests and wetlands.
What New York parks should you visit with your dog?
Located in Battery Park in the Financial District, you can't miss a trip to Sirius Dog Run with your pup. It was built in tribute to the brave service dogs of 9/11. It's free to visit and even features a wading pool for your dog to splash around in. If you're near Gramercy, you've got to check out Madison Square Dog Run. Small in size but packed with perks, this park features separate areas for large and small dogs, along with plenty of shaded places to rest while your dog romps around. Looking for somewhere your dog can run off leash? Try Hillside Dog Park in Brooklyn. With over two acres of free space to run and a wooded area for curious canines to explore, this is a great park for dogs of all sizes.
