“Athena took amazing care of my dogs, Matty and Max, during their 5-night stay with her. She treated them as if they were her own, followed all of my instructions perfectly, and truly went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable and happy. She kept me updated throughout their stay with pictures and thoughtful notes, which gave me so much peace of mind. This was my first time leaving my dogs with a sitter, so I was naturally a little nervous, but Athena completely exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Athena to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive dog sitter. I will absolutely be using her services again in the future!”


“Pamela is a wonderful sitter! She was able to take care of our very active frenchie while we were away. She was very flexible and really good with communication. She would send us Blake’s picture during the course of the stay. We will definitely recommend her and book her again in the future!!”


“Agnes was so great for our pup. He usually has separation and anxiety issues but was calm and happy when we picked him up. She let us know how he was doing throughout his stay and sent over pictures. Will definitely be booking with her again. Thanks for a great Rover experience!”

“My doodle, Pacey, was so well cared for and judging by the constant stream of happy photos, he clearly felt right at home. Thank you for the care, the cuddles, and the great communication! We can’t wait to book again.”

“Jennifer and her family are truly amazing! Jennifer did everything to help my dog get comfortable in a new environment. She is a true dog lover and I will be rebooking her for life. Her home has now became our dog 2nd home. Communication was also top-tier. Expect daily photos of your furry one.”

“Nari&Ryan are perfect! Latte had a great stay with them with many loves! They shared lots of photos and videos. Will definitely come back and recommend to anyone!”

“Ryan is great. My dog stayed with him for two nights! Ryan shared a lot updates and photos throughout the day. Plenty of play time and multiple walks!”

About: I have been a cat owner for over 8 years, super experienced with taking care of cats and love all of them with my heart. Also, I have walked my cousins golden noodle countless times, and he poops over three times on one walk! I personally don’t own a dog but I enjoy hanging out with anyone’s special loved dogs. I am currently working in a kids indoor playground part time. Aside from the days off, I also have availability anytime after 6pm every day. I will make sure to keep all places clean and clean up any mess if needed. Making sure the pet feels safe before engaging any activities with them.
“It’s so sweet and comforting to see how Ryan and Jefra treat Buttercup like their own. This was the first time I’ve left him with a sitter for so long (two weeks) and he got special treats, snuggles, and playtime in their hallway while it stormed in New York. I got updates anytime I asked, and as usual Jefra took stunning pictures of him that are hard to believe are just iphone photos! Anytime we come by with him they’re friendly, and easy to talk to as well. Would highly recommend.”


“Jialarie treated our kitties like they were her own and sent us pictures of them each day along with frequent updates. Would definitely recommend her services”

“So responsive to our texts and communication was great. She treated Ranger like a part of the family and send us lots of photos. Ranger got along with her dog and cat and we plan to have Ranger stay here again in the future”

“Super grateful to have found Alysson to watch our pup for a few days. She gave daily updates with cute photos. Was at ease with her watching our girl. Looking forward to using her again soon!”
“Took great care of StarFox! I know my dog enjoyed his stay and I appreciate all the time spent with him playing and walking. My dog had a prior injury and he got the best care and attention possible, even a visit to the vet, medical instructions, everything was taken care of. My dog was taken care of like he was family! My dog is a clever fox, so he can be a handful sometimes. Fantastic job and would definitely book again when I’m out of town. Great photos too and updates!”

“This was my first time leaving my baby home on a trip and Marcus made it so easy! He was super communicative before Lump's stay, and was willing to answer all my questions! As for the stay itself - it seems like both Lump and Marcus had a WONDERFUL time together. Marcus sent me daily photos and videos and I felt free of worry or concern, knowing that Lump was being loved on and taken care of so completely. Our trip ended early, and Marcus was great about being flexible on an early pick-up. I will absolutely use Marcus again to take care of Lump in the future!”
“Yusuf was able to accommodate me with relatively short notice, and he took great care of my Ziggy. He's very communicative and responds quickly, I highly recommend him!”

“Sabrina was amazing! She took such great care of my dog and sent lots of pictures and updates, which I really appreciated. I felt completely at ease knowing my Maximus was in such good hands. I would definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10 and so am well equipped for all the outdoor time and walks, not to mention too cuddles and play time your pets might need! I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to take great care of animals who I will make sure to love and care for as if my own! I have a well sized 2 bedroom apartment that has plenty of play room for zoomies and a balcony for a quick potty break as needed!
“Patricia has been wonderful with our pup. She has been taking very good care of him and sending us regular updates and pictures. I am sure our dog was spoiled and covered with love, we would definitely recommend Patricia and hope to see her again!”

Our dog was so happy during his stay with Aviel. I could see in pictures and videos that he was doing well and I knew I didn't have to worry my entire vacation. He kept my dog very active, stuck to his diet and feeding routine, and he was clean and well taken care of by Aviel. I highly recommend him! We are so happy we found him!

Nami thoroughly enjoyed her week-long stay with Lawrence! My mind was at ease receiving Lawrence’s number of photos and behavioral updates throughout the day. He was extremely communicative and accommodating to my requests. Nami enjoyed having her own dedicated room with towers and a common space to explore and play. Lawrence truly treated Nami like his own and I can’t recommend him enough. I will certainly be booking another stay in the future. Thank you, Lawrence!

This was my pup’s second time staying with Aritra after almost a year. My dog happily ran to Aritra and left me - heart breaking for me, but proof of what a positive experience he has had staying with him!! Aritra communicates consistently and is very responsible when it comes to your pet’s safety and health. I love getting the pictures and videos of my dog during his stay. I’m so glad I’ve found a reliable and trustworthy sitter.

Shirley was amazing with our two big goldendoodles! This was their first time ever being away from home, so we were a little nervous for them, but they had the absolute best time. We loved her fenced-in yard, and they had a ton of balls to play with. Our dogs are really well-behaved, but we felt so much more comfortable knowing there were no kids or other pets around to overwhelm them. She sent us photo updates every single day and we loved that they were smiling. Honestly a perfect experience—highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again!

We boarded our two pups with Lynn for our wedding weekend and she was fantastic! Drop off and pick up were seamless, and Lynn provided regular updates although we were a bit slow to respond at times. Would definitely recommend Lynn to anyone and would book her again in the future!

Jasper had a great time with Nari, Ryan and Jiyu! We did a meet & greet and 1 day boarding prior to our vacation. Our dog seemed happy during his time away. Nari and Ryan sent daily videos / photos ensuring we felt comfortable while away. They accommodated the time difference well, were flexible with pickup and drop off, and were super great with our instructions. They walked Jasper several times a day and even brushed his fur. We will use them again, great sitters!

Mehnaz did a wonderful job boarding our 3 cats! She was very communicative & sent tons of great photos + videos. And at a last minute request, she was even willing to keep them for an extra night! It's hard to imagine a better person to take care of our cats, and we would gladly leave our trio with her again. She even brought them each a Churu when she brought them back! 🥹

Jacind was great with Milo! I needed someone to keep him overnight while I was busy with my daughter’s Sweet Sixteen, and she made everything so easy for me. She was very communicative, sent me pictures and updates throughout the night, and Milo seemed to warm up to her really quickly. I also really appreciated that she was able to pick Milo up from the venue and drop him back off the next morning. With everything I had going on that weekend, that was a huge help. I felt comfortable knowing Milo was in good hands, and I would definitely book with Jacind again!

Laura was very good with my boy, it was our first time being away from him for a few days and we were very nervous but Laura assured me that my boy was in good hands and indeed he was. I even ask to extend my baby stay for one more day and she was willing to accommodate as well. Will definitely book in the future!

Abbie was fantastic watching our dog Mongchi overnight! She sent regular videos and pictures throughout the stay, so we always felt in the loop and could tell Mongchi was happy and comfortable in her care. He even got to play with her dog Peachy, and it was so sweet seeing them become friends — Mongchi had a blast! Drop-off and pick-up were both easy and stress-free. Abbie is communicative, caring, and it's obvious she genuinely loves the dogs she watches. We felt completely at ease leaving Mongchi with her. We'll definitely be booking with Abbie again!
This was my first time using a dog sitter and Erica was absolutely amazing with Lady. She updated me regularly and took very good care of Lady. She understands and caters to the needs of the puppies very well and also us! lady had a great time and will definitely recommend Erica in the future.

We are so lucky to have found Joey! From the moment we dropped off Lulu we knew we found a loving spot. Our dog is quite energetic and they only showed kindness and patience. The pictures sent daily showed Lulu so happy and comfortable. We will be using Joey as often as we can!

On Rover, 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.
There are 14,263 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Oakland Gardens. About 88% of Oakland Gardens sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
