“Lourdes and her family always take such wonderful care of Fergus. She provides amazing communication with pictures and videos throughout the day. We always feel secure knowing he is happy, safe and loved. Thank you, Lourdes!”
“This is a great family home for my dog -- she loved boarding here. Aaron take all your special needs and indulgences into consideration and provides plenty of play opportunities. Just what my little doodle needs!”
“I feel so lucky to have found Lauren and Justin. I am new to the area and this was my first experience leaving Charlie with a new family. I can't imagine a more positive experience. Charlie was well cared for and loved on by Lauren and Justin and their two beautiful daughters. Bonus was their two dogs who became instant playmates. I got regular updates and pictures and was assured all along the way that all was well. I swear there was a tear in Charlie's eye when he had to say good bye and we drove away. Until next time...Grateful!”
“Our Lexi warned up to Sophia almost immediately, which is unusual for her. As a senior pup, Sophia had no problem giving Lexi her meds, which was comforting. Sophia was also patient with Lexi's accidents. Communication was good and pictures of Lexi appearing completely at ease warmed our hearts. Thanks, Sophia!”
“Our dog had such a great time with Jose! Jose was quick to get a hold of, flexible with setting up a meet and greet, and offers such a great rate for dog sitting. We will absolutely be returning!”
About: I’ve had 2 dogs of my own previously & hiked them around many trails in the area. My special skills would be that I am very patient when it comes to sniffing the grass!! I’m currently able to fit pet care into my routine and would love to spend time with yours! Feel free to reach out to me for more info I have an apartment with plenty of space for a pet. Your pet will be treated as my own, and be well loved and cared for!
“We left our dog Koko in the care of Amy and her family, and it was a great decision. Every day they sent us photos and videos of Koko, and he always looked very happy. They provided him exceptional attention and care. Highly recommended!”
“Thomas was wonderful with our airedale terrier. He sent pictures and updates about their adventures. Our dog has food allergies and Thomas was able to make sure he did not come into contact with them. We will look forward to hiring him in the future.”
“Alex and his partner were amazing at taking care of our two pups. We received daily photos and updates. From the updates you could really tell how much they were bonding and getting to know our dogs. They are very professional and really make the extra effort to understand the dogs and make sure they have everything they need to be happy and settled while they are away. My dogs exhibited some territorial behavior when a new dog came to stay, but they were able to handle the situation with care and thoughtfulness. My dogs came back happy and healthy and would definitely have them stay again. Thanks for everything!!”
“Brittani provided wonderful care to our energetic doodle when we recently passed through town. She sent photos and it was clear that our dog felt very comfortable in her home. Thank you, Brittani!”
“Brian & Kathleen were excellent! Our dog can be a handful, but they took great care of him and treated him like their own. Will definitely hope to book again”
About: Hi! I’m Jenine — a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and senior pets. I’m patient, gentle, and I truly treat every furry friend like part of my family. I understand how stressful it can feel to leave your pets with someone new, so I make sure you’re always updated with photos, messages, and clear communication. Whether your pet needs extra snuggles, a steady routine, daily exercise, or slow introductions, I adjust to their personality and make sure they feel safe and loved. I have experience with: • Puppies and energetic dogs • Senior pets who need patience and comfort • Cats with shy or affectionate personalities • Oral medication administration • Dogs who need structured walks or extra exercise I work later hours, so I’m very dependable for evening and overnight care — perfect for pet parents with busy schedules, hospital shifts, or last-minute plans. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priority, and I always go the extra mile to make sure you come home to a calm, cared-for companion. ❤️ Pet care is part of my everyday routine. I love starting and ending my day with walks, feeding, and cuddle time. I make sure every pet gets the right amount of exercise, attention, and consistent care so they feel secure and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting your home, I follow their routine closely—meals, walks, medication, playtime, everything. I make sure they’re well-fed, exercised, relaxed, and comfortable. My priority is keeping tails wagging and whiskers purring while giving you total peace of mind.
About: I come from a family who has always had multiple pets at a time, with anywhere from 3 to 10 foster dogs under our care at any given time! I’ve cared for a wide range of dogs from smaller poodles and Shih tzus to much larger retrievers, border collies, and German shepherds. I have experience with cats as well, but much more lengthy experience taking care of dogs of different sizes and temperaments :) I am a med student so my schedule varies in flexibility but I live in a very walkable area and typically spend a lot of time at home studying! I love taking long walks in between classes and studying and would love to bring a furry friend along with me :) As I do have to be in classes some days for a few hours (no more than 3-4 at a time), i am better boarding pets who can be left alone for a couple hours. As for my home, I have plenty of space for them to run around freely.
About: Hi everyone! My name is Reese and I am a junior nursing major at St. John Fisher University! I am available for all dog/cat/etc. pet needs throughout the school year (September 7th - December 16th and January 11th - May 1st) minus a few random days/weeks for school breaks. I have been pet sitting for multiple years now including walks, overnights, and drop-in visits! I am comfortable caring for multiple animals at once so please don’t hesitate to reach out to me! I would love to spend some time with your pets while away from mine back home! I currently have classes pretty heavy Mondays and Wednesdays with breaks throughout the day to stop by! Tuesdays, I am done by noon. Thursdays are my clinical days so that would be the one day with a long stretch away from the home and then Friday-Sunday, I am completely free! I have had no issues so far with my schedule conflicting with pet care and is always a top priority! As I am a college student still living on campus, comfortability with me staying at your home would be a must (for overnights)! I also believe it keeps the dogs/cats/etc. calmer while their parents are away as they are still in their natural “environment” and only one of their daily norms is changing….ME!!

I cannot recommend Kasia enough! She took amazing care of Winston while I was away for the weekend. Kasia provided regular updates and photos - letting me know Winston was happy, comfortable, and so well loved. It was clear he was in great hands and getting lots of attention and care. I will definitely use Kasia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter!
Sophia is wonderful and was everything I hoped for when looking for someone I could trust to care for Petey. She has such a kind, calm, and laid-back demeanor, and Petey took to her right away—which immediately put me at ease. It’s a great feeling knowing Petey is with someone he’s comfortable with and who genuinely cares for him. Thank you, Sophia! Petey and I look forward to seeing you again soon!
Maryfran did a fantastic job taking care of our senior 13-year-old mini poodle! She greeted us at drop off in a clean, welcoming house, and reviewed all of our instructions before we left. We got thoughtful updates with pictures and videos every day, and our "Buster" came home relaxed, without any signs of stress - just the way you'd want it! Thanks, Maryfran!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Penfield is $43 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $61 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 320 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Penfield. 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.
95% of sitters in Penfield 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 Penfield 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 Penfield.
<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 Penfield 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.
