About: I’m a caring, responsible, and attentive dog lover who would be happy to give your pup plenty of love, attention, and companionship while you’re away. While I’m newer to dog sitting professionally, I’m comfortable around dogs and understand how important it is to treat every pet with patience, kindness, and care. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, walking preferences, and any special instructions. I’m reliable, communicative, and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident that your dog is happy and well cared for. Every dog is different, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely and make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’d be excited to meet you and your furry friend! I’m a stay-at-home mom with a flexible daytime schedule, so I’m available throughout most weekdays to give your dog plenty of attention, care, walks, and companionship. I’m happy to work around your dog’s routine and needs. Your dog will be welcomed into a calm, loving, and family-friendly home. We have a quiet neighborhood that’s great for walks and outdoor time, along with an unfenced backyard for supervised outdoor breaks. Inside our home, your dog will have free access to the first floor, where they can relax and feel comfortable. I have three gentle, dog-loving children who are excited to welcome a furry guest while always respecting their space and comfort. I’ll make sure your dog is supervised, cared for, and treated with patience and kindness throughout their stay.
“Ollie had a great stay with Alissa! She was very communicative and Ollie seemed to have a great time. Very conveniently located near the Hicksville train station. Would happily book with her again.”
“Tanu is great! She took good care of our 6 year old Ace for a day. She loves your pet like it’s her own. Ace is picky with his eating habits and spoiled I should say, but she was very concerned when he skipped his meal. She followed all our instructions and sent us pictures of Ace more often than we expected. He was very happy at her place. I would use her services again without any hesitation and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for an excellent sitter for their furry. Thank you so much Tanu for taking care of Ace!”
“Iliana is incredible. Amazing. Professional. I truly cannot say enough about how wonderful she was with my dog, Ophie. Iliana sent updates and photos every single day while I was away and I could not be happier with mine and Ophie’s experience! We will most definitely be contacting Iliana again as I feel Ophie is part of her family now. I am over the moon with how it all went!!!! She. Is. The. Best. ☺️❤️”
“Our pup just had her first stay with Angela and we couldn’t be more thrilled! She was welcomed into a loving home with lots of snuggles, walks and an environment where she felt safe immediately. She came home very happy and we can tell from the pics that she enjoyed her time. Will definitely book again!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and sizes, treating each one like my own. From playful pups to senior snuggle bugs, I want your pets to feel safe, loved, and happy. I am a home care speech therapist who works close to home. I have a flexible schedule, allowing me to give your pet and mine plenty of attention and care.

Whether in my home or yours, I follow your pet’s schedule to keep them happy and comfortable. Available for meet and greet by Mary Jane Davies park prior to pet boarding. As a personal preference, we don’t do meet & greets in the home and don’t take more than one dog (unless it’s from the same family, 2 max). Big on sending updates and pictures.

We are so happy we found Viera! It always feels hard to leave our 15yo dog when we need to travel but Ginger had a great time in Viera's care. Viera and her family are lovely and Ginger enjoyed the human and canine companionship during our absence. She came home happy and relaxed. We will definitely book with Viera again.
We felt very comfortable leaving our puppy with Shan. Her and her family clearly love dogs and sent us many pictures and videos throughout the stay. Our puppy seemed well adjusted when we picked him back up! We plan to have our puppy stay with Shan again when we need a sitter for our fur baby.
Piper and Juno had a fantastic week being cared for by Lisa and Gracie, Juno’s new best friend! Both our dogs were cared for like family, and Lisa shared many pictures and kept us up-to-date throughout the week. We were able to enjoy our vacation, knowing that they were both happy and loved and in great hands. A very kind family to take care of our loved ones.!
We boarded our 1yo dog with Katsumi for 5 nights and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Katsumi was wonderful, clearly loves and cares for dogs and made our boy feel right at home. She was very accommodating to his personality and routine. We’ll definitely be reaching out to Katsumi for future day care and boarding! 💚

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Port Washington is $43 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 13,729 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Port Washington. 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 Port Washington 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 Port Washington 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 Port Washington.
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 Port Washington 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.
