“The love and care which Deb has given our dogs is extraordinary. She kept them during our two three week vacations in Italy and Thailand and tended to a medical issue with our vet despite great inconvenience to herself. Our dogs love her and their tails wag as they meet her each time. Deb teaches us to much about our dogs that we are especially grateful for her suggested techniques. You will not find a more caring or conscientious carer for your dog.”

“Another wonderful stay with Julian and Jocelyn for my Brooklyn, this time it was 16 days. I was traveling internationally, and would have otherwise been incredibly nervous to leave my baby as this was the longest I had left her, had it not been that she was completely comfortable and smitten with this lovely couple. During the stay, Julian and Jocelyn were super considerate of me being in a different time zone and sent update every single day such that I always woke to adorable updates of my baby. Not once did I have to reach out to them for updates of my baby, the updates came like clockwork. It would not have been such a wonderful vacation for me, had Julian and Jocelyn not been such a superb host for my baby. I could tell that they really love dogs and cared for Brooklyn. They even exercised my little chubber and provided training to my silly girl. This couple has been a Godsend and I am so glad I have found them! ”

“Aaron was a great fit for our dog - Miso loved spending the week with him. It took a few days for Miso to adjust to his first ever sitter and Aaron handled it well - checking in with us when he noticed that Miso wasn't eating and seemed a little home sick. By the end of the week, Miso seemed to be having a great time. Aaron sent pictures and updates throughout the week, which was really appreciated. We would highly recommend Aaron. He was open to meeting with us before we left on vacation and asked great questions (vet info, local contacts, likes and dislikes, etc). We usually leave Miso at a boarder, but since our trip was going to be longer than usual we were hoping to find someone local that could give Miso more personal attention and affection - Aaron made us feel comfortable leaving Miso with him for an extended period of time. Thanks for taking such good care of Miso for us, Aaron!”

He felt at home immediately and she did a wonderful job with keeping me updated and sent photos regularly every day! I will be using her services every time I need someone to watch my animals. I recommend her services 100%!”

On top of that, my pup has a great time hanging with her dog Bailey and going on long daily walks. She brought me back a tired and happy pup! Thanks Brooke!”

About: We recently lost our beloved golden retriever to cancer, and our house feels far too empty without him. While we're not quite ready for another dog of our own, I'd love to share some of that love and affection with yours! We live on a beautiful property with lots of land, trails, and a pond. Some of my favorite parts of having a dog were long walks in the woods, swims in the pond, and taking breaks from my computer for a game of frisbee. I work remotely and am home throughout the day, so your dog would have plenty of companionship, exercise, and attention. I know firsthand how hard it can be to find someone you trust with your pet, and I'd care for yours like a member of our family. We have two children under five who absolutely adore dogs. They're at daycare during the day, but we'd want to make sure your dog is comfortable around young children. Our golden slept in our bedroom every night, but I'm happy to accommodate your dog's usual routines and sleeping preferences. I'm also comfortable administering medications and caring for dogs with additional needs. Most of all, I'd love to give your dog a happy, loving place to stay with plenty of fresh air, activity, and affection! I currently work from home so have plenty of time for pet care. I was used to the routine of caring for our energetic golden and am feeling the void of the companionship and the responsibility. I do not have a fenced yard but have three acres that bumps up to a 50 acre field. There are miles of private trails that I can walk on (leash or no leash).

About: As a lifelong dog owner, animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve owned four Labrador Retrievers over the years and currently have one lovable lab, Ellie Bear, who absolutely loves making new furry friends. My experience goes far beyond basic pet care — my first dog, Nala, had a litter of 8 puppies, giving me hands-on experience with canine pregnancy, birthing, newborn puppy care, feeding schedules, socialization, and raising puppies in a safe, loving environment. I understand the importance of patience, routine, exercise, affection, and making pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. Whether your pup loves playtime, cuddles, or simply having companionship, I treat every dog like family. 🐾 🐾 Availability & Care Schedule 🐾 Your pup will never be left alone — someone will always be home 24/7, whether it’s myself, Pep, or Kevin. We provide a safe, loving, family-style environment where dogs receive constant attention, care, and companionship. Each day includes: • Plenty of playtime and exercise • Snuggles, affection, and personalized attention • Potty breaks and outdoor time • A cozy, stress-free environment where your dog is treated like family 🐻🐾 I am currently available for: • Weekend boarding • Extended stays when needed • Flexible scheduling depending on availability My goal is to make every pup feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while you’re away! Your pup’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. We provide a loving, family-style environment where dogs are treated like one of our own. We have a large fenced-in yard perfect for running, playing, fetch, and getting lots of energy out safely. Our chocolate lab, Ellie Bear, absolutely loves making new friends, chasing tennis balls, and cooling down afterward in the pet pool on warmer days! 🐻💦 For boarding stays, I can easily accommodate your dog’s sleeping preferences. If your pup is crate trained, I’m happy to crate them when needed, or they can relax in a cozy dog bed for bedtime. And if your dog is used to extra snuggles and sleeping close to their humans, we don’t mind cuddles in bed either — we want them to feel as comfortable and at home as possible. Most importantly, your dog will never be left alone. Someone will always be home 24/7 — whether it’s myself, or Kevin — so your pup will always have supervision, companionship, love, and care.

About: I am reliable, with a flexible schedule, and genuine love for animals. Being in nursing school has taught me responsibility, patience, and attention to detail, which I bring to caring for pets. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and everything in between, and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I’m currently in nursing school, which gives me a very flexible schedule to care for pets. My classes are mostly in the mornings, and I only have clinical once a week, so I have plenty of time during the day and evenings to provide walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting. My fiancé works from home so one of us is always at home! I care for pets by following their normal routine, making sure they’re fed, walked, and given plenty of attention and playtime. I keep their environment safe, clean, and comfortable, and always treat them like part of the family.

Niki went above and beyond! I had a very complicated situation where I wasn’t able to house my dog anymore due to living circumstances. She offered to watch him until he had an appointment at a humane society. She was actually able to find him a loving home so he didn’t have to go. While watching him she gave updates with pictures and was very communicative. She also was very gracious in giving my dog time to warm up and let me stay around for a bit until he was settled. I’d give more stars if I could. Nicki truly had my dog’s wellbeing as top priority and she helped change his life for the better.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - North Jay

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 128 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across North Jay. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

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.

98% of sitters in North Jay 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 Jay 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 Jay.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Jay. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

You and your North Jay 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.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
