“My pug Charlie had another wonderful time with Abbie and Peachy. Charlie feels really safe with Abbie even though she is a little anxious and Peachy is a great friend that helps Charlie to stay active and socialized especially in this cold weather. Outstanding hosts!”
“Shirley is the best! She is responsible, kind, and very communicative. We appreciated all the photos she shared and took comfort knowing that our puppy was in great hands with Shirley. You can tell that she is a true animal lover. Highly recommended!!”
“Diane has been a lifesaver! Prompt updates and photos, amazing response time, wonderful service & Luna was very happy! Which is what everyone ultimately needs to know while they are separated from their pet. Diane has been amazing and we will definitely be using her again in the future if needed!”
“I’m so happy I found Emily! My dog tends to be pretty high energy and which makes me a little nervous. Emily was awesome— she communicated with me and sent me photos through out Harlem’s stay. He was very calm and well taken care of. I will certainly be booking again!!”
“Tokyo’s stay was amazing! He was cared for with so much love, and he really enjoyed spending time with Margarita & Cristian. I highly recommend their services. Thank you for everything — we’ll see you again soon!”
“Wendy, I cannot thank you enough for the loving care you have extended to our boy, Jack. I really appreciated the multiple pictures, videos and updates especially since we were out of the country. It was so clear that Jack was well taken care of and happy. I have no hesitation for Jack to stay in the future. 10 stars!”
“Qin En took good care of my cat Echo while I was out of town. She sent me multiple pictures/videos a day so I can enjoy my vacation while making sure my cat is doing well. She genuinely loves cats and actually any animals! 😂 highly recommend 😊”
“I am so thankful Charlie was available for a last minute booking/ boarding for our dog, Bibi. After communicating our needs, we knew Charlie was a great fit. Our dog felt right at home, and Charlie communicated frequently throughout her time there, including sending picture and video updates unprompted. We would love the opportunity to re-book with Charlie in the future.”
“Grace and Wu G. have taken care of our dog twice now and they were amazing every time. There is outdoor space for our dog to play and be active, and they are so kind and careful to update us and send us photos so we know how she’s doing, and they were very accommodating when our plans changed.”
“Royce's 2nd time staying with Juliana and her family and we couldn't have been happier. They were able to get through our old man's tough exterior and his level of comfort while staying with them in their home showed in the pictures she sent. Juliana and her family not only has our trust, but most importantly Royce's!”
“Lu and his family took great care of our dog. This is the first boarding experience for our dog, who gets nervous when she is away from home. Lu was great with updates and lots of pictures. Their own dog and daughter were attentive and made our Beau feel right at home. They were also very generous with whatever Beau needed. I highly recommend Lu and his family and feel good that we found someone to take care of Beau next time we need boarding.”

I was looking for a last minute dog sitter and was so relieved to come across Aritra. Seeing that he had over 200 five star reviews immediately gave me confidence that Max would be in great hands. From the very beginning, Aritra was incredibly responsive to every text message and phone call. He even took the time to schedule a video call and a meet and greet before I booked, which made me feel even more comfortable leaving my standard poodle, Max, in his care. Throughout Max’s stay, Aritra kept me updated with videos and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Max was happy, well cared for, and enjoying his time with him. I highly recommend Aritra to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter. I will absolutely be booking with him again for Max!
Elle is the best dog sitter we could ever ask for. We are so happy we found her. She loves Kiki like she was her own. Elle sends us daily pictures and communicates with us constantly. She is very good at what she does. We will be using her again in the very near future.
We’ve used Ning multiple times to care of Oreo, and every time has been excellent. She sends lots of photos and updates, which gives us great peace of mind while we’re away. Oreo was recently prescribed medication, and Ning did a fantastic job making sure he took it. Thanks again Ning! 🫶🏻
Ilona was wonderful with Princess. Princess had a seizure which she hasn’t had in months and Ilona was so warm, caring and comforting to Princess. It really put my family and I at ease since we were not there. Ilona provided frequent updates and made Princess’s stay a very comfortable one. We highly recommend Ilona! Thank you so much for taking great care of Princess, Ilona!!!
Mehnaz was the absolute best. We had to be out of town and with only a couple days notice, Mehnaz was available and took excellent care of Chi-Chi. Chi-Chi was very nervous to be away from the family and Mehnaz was able to calm her down and relate to her very fast. We were also late picking her up due to the long distance we were driving and unforeseen traffic conditions, Mehnaz was very accommodating and understanding. We really appreciate how well Mehnaz took care of Chi Chi.
Amy was such an amazing caretaker for Apollo! We needed someone to watch him during a long trip, and since he had never stayed with her before, she generously offered not one, but two meet-and-greets. The first was to meet us and Apollo, and the second allowed him to get comfortable in her home before his stay. From the very beginning, Amy was incredibly sweet, kind, and welcoming. Her family was just as excited to have Apollo and made him feel right at home. She took the time to listen to all of our instructions and learn about Apollo’s preferences, and she truly embraced having him as part of her family while we were away. Throughout his stay, she kept me updated with pictures and messages about how he was eating, sleeping, adjusting, and whether he seemed anxious. Her communication was excellent, and she was always so accommodating and thoughtful. Apollo was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for, which gave me so much peace of mind while traveling. I trusted Amy completely and would absolutely have Apollo stay with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, reliable, and communicative sitter!
Joey took great care of our Kona girl : ) He was always sending us lots of pictures of her walking, playing, sunbathing and cuddling. He would keep us informed of any concerns and tell us how good she was doing. We look forward to bringing Kona to him again because we know she enjoyed her time there. Thank you Joey!
Jancid was amazing!! I strongly recommend her services. She is very genuine, and very caring when it came to welcoming my pup in her home. She went above and beyond, and took great care of my dog. She is communicative, and sent pictures and videos of him throughout the boarding experience.
I just wanted to extend my thanks to Roxana and her family for taking such great care of Daisylu while I was away for a week. I could tell she had a great time, and had plenty of attention. For anyone looking for a reliable sitter look no further than Roxana, you won’t need to worry about your fur baby❤️

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 Oakland Gardens 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 Oakland Gardens 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 Oakland Gardens 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 Oakland Gardens.
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 Oakland Gardens 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.
