“This is the first time I used Veronique to care for my 3y/o Golden Retriever Pebbles for 10 days. The family was amazing with Pebbles. She got along amazingly well with the family. Their beautiful children are so sweet and played with her like they had her since she was a puppy. I received pictures of Pebbles everyday and they even gave her a spa bath because she was digging and rolled in the mud when it was raining. They are awesome. I would definitely use them again to take care of Pebbles.”

Jinay was patient, gentle, and incredibly understanding. She took the time to make Wren feel safe and comfortable. I am so grateful for her care and will definitely use her again! Five Stars!”

“Denise took excellent care of our little fur baby. At first, we were worried because he had never stayed with her, nor met her. Our regular sitter was not available and we had to find someone else at the last minute. When we came across Denise’s profile we felt confident that she would be perfect. So glad we found her as she took the best care of him, and he came home very happy and healthy. We are very grateful to Denise for keeping us posted and updated with messages and photos. Wishing her continued success in caring for fur baby families. We will certainly be reaching out again should the need arise!! Thank you, grateful and happy.”

“Gerald watched our dog in his home for 10 days, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Our dog can get anxious when he's away from home, but he was calm, comfortable, and clearly well cared for throughout his stay. Gerald took him on walks in the nearby park and provided excellent care. He was also a fantastic communicator, sending regular updates, photos, and videos that gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. I would absolutely recommend Gerald to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. We'll definitely be booking with him again in the future!”

They also made a very cute portrait of Cleo and gifted her a bandana, which she is still wearing and loving. I highly recommend Freedom to others looking for a sitter.”

Joanne was caring, conscientious and professional. This was our first booking with her, and she thoughtfully sent many photos with updates on how our boy was adapting to this new environment. He had previously been boarded only with his breeder. He was fine, happy and well taken care of. We would gladly book with her again.

Gerald was absolutely wonderful with our rescue dog, Harley, who can often be nervous and anxious with a sitter but seemed to feel right at home with him. Gerald was kind, patient, and attentive to Harley’s needs and was excellent about communicating with us throughout her stay. We would most certainly use him again and highly recommend him!

This was our first time leaving Finn with anyone outside of family or our usual sitter. Sandy was so responsive, provided a comfortable and safe environment for the dogs, and you could tell she really cares for the dogs! I would highly recommend her for anyone considering boarding with Rover.

I couldn’t be happier with the incredible care my dog received! From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in the hands of someone who truly loves animals. She’s adamant about maintaining your pets’ normal schedule. To say she is accommodating would be an understatement. The daily updates, photos, and genuine attention made all the difference. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly adored. This was above and beyond anything I expected. If you’re looking for someone who treats your dog like family, look no further.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - North Great River

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in North Great River on Rover is $78 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $70 and $78 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 3,500 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across North Great River. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

97% of sitters in North Great River 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 North Great River 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 North Great River.

<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 North Great River 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.
