“Vanessa was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter for our dog, Candy. She was kind, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. She took the time to understand Candy’s routine, personality, and needs, which gave us so much peace of mind. While we were away, Vanessa kept us updated daily with videos and pictures. Our kids were so excited every day to receive them, it really made the time apart so much easier and more enjoyable for the whole family. It was clear Candy was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Vanessa truly went above and beyond to make sure Candy felt safe and loved. We would highly recommend her to anyone. We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”
“Highly recommended such a loving family. Sent great pictures and kept in touch several times a day. They took great care of my mischievous pet for two nights. Will always think of them for the future!”
“Sara was very good about replying to our texts prior to meeting her and also while our dogs were staying with her. We received daily updates and photos which was very comforting to us being away on a trip. The dogs certainly enjoyed their stay and the loving attention they got during their stay. They also had lots of exercise and playtime. Our dogs also got along well with Sara's dog, Phil. It's wonderful to have found a responsible and reliable dog sitter in Sara.”
“Diana was amazing with my pup, Louis! He had an absolute blast — especially getting to run around outside and play with the other dogs and kids, which is such a treat for him since he doesn’t get that kind of freedom in Manhattan. I could tell he was well cared for and totally in his element. Communication was great, with tons of photos daily, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such a loving, fun environment. I’d strongly recommend Diana to anyone looking for a thoughtful and responsible sitter — we’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“This was our first time leaving our senior rescue in someone else’s care. Isabella took such good care of him, and kept us updated with photos which we really appreciated. We have already booked his next stay.”
“John was great with Tessa - he was very easy going about scheduling a meet and greet ahead of our scheduled time away and then accomodating all that our needy GSD puppy required while she was staying with him. He sent daily photos/videos and updates which helped reassure us that she was being well cared for and having a great time. I would highly recommend him.”
“Kristen was a great sitter! She’s very responsive and easy to work with. She and her husband took great care of our puppy. She sent great updates and videos. We’d be happy to have Maggie stay with her again!”
“Dawn was wonderful! Our two dogs stayed with her for the weekend. She has a big fenced-in backyard for playtime and couches for snuggles! We received texts and photos with updates and knew they had a nice, relaxed visit. Dawn took great care of our little ones!”
“I was nervous to board my puppy for the first time. Marcia created a warm and caring environment for Sterling from the beginning. She sent me pictures each day and consistently reassured me he was doing well. My puppy was sad to leave! Highly reccomend her! I will be using again for sure?”
“Laura and Josh took great care of our puppy! They sent lots of pictures and updates and gave her tons of attention and walks. Ava seemed really sweet and the two dogs got along well. Highly recommend!”
“Samantha has taken such great care of our fur babies. She is caring and loves them like they were her own pets. I can always count on her to give them the attention they need. They are both senior dogs and need special attention and care. I would not hesitate to use her when we need her services. I would highly recommend her any time.”
“Wenxu, has sat for our pup twice now and both times has provided exceptional care. Very communicative and kept us updated on our pups experience everyday. Will definitely book again.”
About: For over 15 years, I’ve been the trusted companion for pets of all shapes and sizes—offering belly rubs, playtime, and plenty of love while their owners are away. From energetic puppies to wise old souls, I understand each pet’s unique needs and personality. Whether it’s long walks, petting and brushing sessions, or keeping up with special care routines, I treat every furry friend like family. With decades of experience and a true passion for animals, you can leave your pet in my care with complete peace of mind. Because to me, pet sitting isn’t just a job—it’s a lifelong love. I’m currently working part-time. So I’ll have plenty of time to play with your extended family members. I’m available for day time walks, as needed, and full boardings during the week, after 3pm, and most weekends. I am flexible with the boarding times as well so if you need me earlier, I’m sure we can work something out. I have a fully fenced in yard about 1/4 of an acre for your family member to stretch their legs and run around. I have one friendly mini schnauzer, Molly, that I am the proud owner of. I can easily crate your dog if needed or if your furry pal needs some time alone I have plenty of space within my home that they are allowed to freely roam. Sometimes this is needed from first meetings because, not unlike people, dogs may take time to get acclimated to one another. I do require a first meet before agreeing to take on new clients for the safety of myself, Molly and my home.
“We cannot rave enough about our experience with Danielle! We used her for our Mastiff puppy while we went on vacation and we were worried because he was a puppy on how he would be with being sat for the first time. We met with Danielle prior to the stay and our first impression was terrific. We had such a great piece of mind while we were gone. She sent multiple pictures daily and likewise kept us informed on how he was doing. We could tell that he thoroughly enjoyed his stay at her home and it was a great experience for him to be with other older dogs! Danielle was also so very patient & accommodating with us getting stuck on our trip longer due to the weather! We would/will recommend her to anyone we know and if we need a sitter in the future, we know who we will ask first! Thank you to Danielle and her family for treating our Otto as one of their own. ?You can't ask for more than that!”
“Laurie and her family took amazing care of our dogs, Blue and Sky, overnight. They treated them like part of the family and kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell our babies were happy, safe, and well loved. We highly recommend Laurie to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”
About: I can still cry when I tell someone the story of when I got my first dog at 13yrs old. I held that adorable golden retriever pup and cried asking if it was really mine! The story of bringing another golden retriever into the lives of my daughters can yet again bring me to tears! Such precious memories! I am now on my second chocolate lab (easier hair drying time lol). Anyway a dog enters my life it is always special. That includes my daughter's cockapoo who has stolen my heart! Whenever I am out and see a dog, no matter what the breed, I always ask to say hello and give a pet! My family and friends sometimes call me the "Dog whisperer" because I am always ready to help should a question arise about care. I have cared for friends and family dogs many times and am ready to help with yours and create a special bond while doing so! I'm currently working in a school. Therefore, my availability during the week is limited. I am available for pop ins and walks after 4pm. Saturday and Sunday I have more availability and during the summer months. I walk my dog every morning and enjoy playing in my backyard. I am always giving lots of love and attention be it snuggles or cookies! Of course the cookies are given in moderation even when it is hard to resist the eyes of my dog asking for one!
“We are now a regular with Theresa. Her family is great with Sal and I have no concerns about leaving him there. Also, she sends great photos of Sal and her daughter playing. I highly recommend her.”
“Great experience with Alexandra!! Very reliable, responsible, great communication prior to booking and throughout stay. Sent pictures and video on daily basis as we requested. Was willing to send less if that was our preference. Our dog looked like she was having a great time which put our minds at ease throughout the vacation that she was being well cared for. She watches only one dog at a time with her friendly dog. The house is clean and spacious. She took Out dog for walks. Would highly recommend.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Northport
I had a great experience with Nelson for overnight boarding and I would highly recommend him. He took such great care of my puppy and treated her like part of the family. My dog, Chloe and his dog got along well and played nicely together. Communication was great throughout the experience, with the just the right amount of updates and photos each day. My pup came home happy, tired, and clearly well-loved. I couldn’t ask for better care and would definitely book with Nelson again.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Northport
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Northport on Rover is $41.73 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 5,823 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Northport. 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.
95% of Northport 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 Northport 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 Northport 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 Northport.
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 Northport 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.
