“I had a fantastic experience with this dog boarding provider! From the moment I dropped my pup off, I felt completely at ease. William was kind, patient, and clearly passionate about animals. He provided regular updates, photos, and videos, which truly gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would book him again.”
“Jocelyn was great! Winston had a wonderful time in her care, she was attentive and sent plenty of updates on how he was doing. I will absolutely use her again if I need someone to take care of Winston.”
“Chialing was friendly, communicative, and professional. She had our timid dog high fives within the hour. It was comforting knowing our dog was in good hands with the regular walls, a clean home, and of course a great host. Thank you so much!”
“Maria is an awesome sitter! I would 10/10 recommend her to anyone! Her love for animals is out of this world. I needed a sitter at the last minute due to a family emergency. I looked through all the sitters on this app and came across Maria. After reading her reviews, I was sold on how highly everyone spoke of her, and let me tell you, they were right! Paco is usually very nervous around strangers, but when he met Maria for the first time, he warmed up to her as if he’d known her forever. She constantly sent pictures of Paco having a great time. Even though Paco is afraid of bigger dogs, she made him feel completely safe around them. He went to the beach, to the park, everywhere! I felt so at ease knowing that Paco was with someone like her.”
“My dog scampi had a great time with Rhinesca and her family. She sent plenty of pictures and kept me up to date with how he was doing. I would bring scampi to her again.”
“Stephanie & Corey have been nothing short of awesome when caring for my 14 y/o chihuahua. They were excellent with communication, showed loving concern throughout his stay, and administered various medications - going as far as to report how it went and provide feedback on his state of being, which was always cozy! They are excellent and I recommend not hesitating when booking them.”
“I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Binta! She was wonderful, incredibly attentive, and overly accommodating throughout Laila’s entire stay. I absolutely loved the picture updates she sent me—it was such a relief to see Laila so happy and well cared for. Binta made sure Laila was comfortable and treated like family. It’s amazing to find someone so trustworthy and flexible. I’ll definitely be booking with Binta again!”
“Bambi had a great time with Iliana! Iliana updated me daily and Bambi returned as a happy pup. Iliana was very responsive and worked within my traveling schedule. Everything worked out perfectly, will definitely go back to Iliana next time. :)”
“Sally is so amazing with my babies. She boarded my cats in her home when I went on vacation. They came home so soft and had a spa vacation of their own. She must have bushed them for hours. So cute!! They were extremely happy there and I’m so glad I have a trusted sitter for them when I travel now.”
“Rhonda & her husband were gracious hosts to our dog for a couple of days. She was very communicative, checking in; getting clarification when necessary & sending great photos. My favorite was the one where she took her on a walk near the water - photo shows our dog with Rhonda, sitting on a bench with her head up - tongue out and laughing. Highly recommend!”
“Nemo has had a fantastic stay with Christine. It was the first time we left him (he is 5 month old) and we were a little bit anxious but he was very happy : a lot of activities, playdate with other dogs, quiet time with Christine and her husband. We will definitely leave him again with Christine next time we travel...”
“Alanis & Marco were great sitters! Very communicative during Brady’s stay sending pictures and updates and also very flexible with pickup/drop off, which I appreciated. They even sent Brady home with new toys! I would definitely book with them again.”
“Karine was absolutely wonderful. We could tell our pup was expertly cared for during our time away. He had an amazing time with Karine, her husband and the other dogs. She was very consistent with updates, and made us feel at ease during the whole stay. We would recommend her to anyone 1000%”
“Bridget really helped me out when I needed a last minute sitter! She was very quick to respond to all messages and sent photos throughout my dog’s stay with her. I would definitely use Bridget again.”
“Leaving Benito for the first time was much easier thanks to Adela. She is such a warm, flexible, and communicative sitter. Benito was clearly very comfortable in her home, which gave me such peace of mind. I’ll definitely book her again!”

Maria was excellent with my 8 month old Georgina. She pays attention to detail and treated my pup as if it were her own. Took her to the dog parks and Maria sent me so many photos/videos. Plus their resident dog got along so well with my pup and they had such a great time, together . Definitely will be coming back and using her services.
I couldn’t have asked for better sitters for Milo! Miryam and her husband are such kind, humble, and genuinely caring people. They made sure Milo felt right at home, showered him with love, and spoiled him as if he were their own. 🥹❤️ What impressed me the most was how quickly they got to know his personality, little quirks, and habits in just a couple of days. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. I’m beyond grateful for the care and affection they gave my baby. I would absolutely trust them with Milo again and highly recommend them! 🐾❤️
Omar did an amazing job watching our dog Sophie! He sent updates with pictures multiple times per day and thoughtful notes to let us know how she was doing. I often feel anxious about how she will do while we are away, but Omar’s updates put me at ease! Would recommend and use again 100%!
Matthew was truly wonderful with our dog, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the care and attention he gave him. From the moment we left, we felt at ease knowing he was with someone who genuinely cared about him. Matthew was so attentive, took him on multiple walks, and made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. It means so much to be able to leave your fur baby with someone and not have to worry, and Matthew gave us that peace of mind. You can really tell that he loves animals and puts genuine effort into making them feel loved and cared for. We are so thankful we found him and would absolutely trust Matthew with our dog again. 🙏🏻🐾 He was amazing from beginning to end!
Natalie was absolutely wonderful! She was able to dog sit Duke on very short notice, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was reliable, caring and attentive. She kept me updated and made sure my dog was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. Will recommend to anyone:)
William was great with our big puppy Diesel. During Diesel’s one week boarding William made sure to keep us updated and at ease with videos and messages. As a trainer, William also gave us feedback on the areas Diesel could use improvement in his training. We would definitely recommend William as a sitter for your four legged children.
Wilbur seemed happy during his visit with Nikki. Easy arrangement and communication with Nikki - would’ve loved more photos and updates each day - but just happy to see Wilbur was in good shape after the 6 days :) Their dog Scout was super happy to play with Wilbur so it was good companionship at Nikki’s house.
Rhonda & her husband were gracious hosts to our dog for a couple of days. She was very communicative, checking in; getting clarification when necessary & sending great photos. My favorite was the one where she took her on a walk near the water - photo shows our dog with Rhonda, sitting on a bench with her head up - tongue out and laughing. Highly recommend!
Jasmine is a fantastic dog-sitter! She’s super responsive and communicative, and takes such good care of our dog, Daisy, that Daisy gets excited when she realizes she’s going on a “vacation”. I would highly recommend Jasmine to any pet parents looking for a responsible and caring sitter for their pet.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Pelham is $52 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $79 per night. 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 of October 2026, there are 13,758 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Pelham. 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.
94% of sitters in Pelham 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 Pelham home-away-from-home, 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 Pelham.
<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 Pelham 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 , 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 .
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.
