“This was Timmy’s second stay with Denis and his wife, and once again, everything was absolutely perfect. Timmy stayed with them for 12 nights, and from the moment we dropped him off, it was clear he remembered them and felt comfortable right away. He was calm, relaxed, and not nervous at all, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Denis and his wife truly treat Timmy like family. They showed him so much love, care, and attention throughout his stay, and it honestly felt like he was at his second home. We knew he was in great hands the entire time. We’re so grateful to have found sitters we completely trust, and we will absolutely continue booking with them in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for kind, reliable, and attentive pet sitters.”
“This was my third booking with Margarita and Cristian. They were kind, accommodating, communicative and a joy to transact with. I forgot to bring food to my pet but they immediately got him kibbles. So helpful!”
“I've booked Kristin a few times, and she has always been very kind and helpful, especially with the special accommodations that my cat needs. I feel she provided a good environment for boarding my cat. In particular, I appreciate her being very helpful and communicative after my cat had a medical episode and needed to be taken to the ER. Her care made a difficult moment easier to go through.”
“Diana was very responsive and professional with my stay for my young high energy dog. She sent adorable pictures very often which made me happy while I was away. Her home is spacious and clean, and there's a backyard which was perfect for my dog to go potty in the snowy weather during my trip. Would definitely recommend and book again! Thank you Diana!!”
“Vanessa made this a great experience. We were very pleased with the communication while we were away and how well she took care of our Peppy. We’d definitely recommend her to everyone.”
“Thank you so much for your excellent work with my baby. Thank you for all the pictures and updates, that allowed me to enjoy my trip. Austin's was very happy. Thank you so much for everything!”
“Butterscotch had such an amazing time with Sam. We got daily updates and felt really assured knowing our baby was having as much of a vacation as we were. Sam was quick to respond to our every need and was extremely accommodating. Butterscotch already got her next visit booked!”
“Juliana was very kind and extremely accommodating. I felt like Skye had a great time while he was there. The only thing I would've improved on is more frequent updates especially since this was my first time boarding with her. Thank you for your time and care Juliana!”
“Kiersten and Casey are the best! Super accommodating. Just the right amount of pics and updates :) I knew my girl was in good hands the whole time. 10/10!”
“Wow, what an experience and blessing. Had an out of town emergency and this amazing hooman came to our rescue. Understanding that Ms. Arianna does not accept puppies and STILL accepted to care of my wild child was a blessing. With Charlie being a high energy pup Adriana had patience to give him all the cuddles and bring his anxiety down. Very communicative through out the day and constant photos of my little terror playing happily. My worries were laid to rest because Adriana is simply the best. Without hesitation I will book Adriana and I Highly recommend this incredible hooman to care of your furbabies. Thank You Adriana ! You are incredible!”
“Awesome dog sitter! Sent me pictures and gave me updates everyday. I’m not sure my dog even wanted to come home after staying with them. Will definitely use them again.”
“Judith's family is a big dog loving family! Not only they gave a happy and comfortable time to my puppy Chopper, but gave me an one day free to take care of my second puppy Ippo in order to make them get along with. Nice place and people to choose!”
“Michelle did a wonderful job taking care of our doggo while we were away with plenty of pictures and texts. Our dog loved her stay with Michelle. We would definitely book her again for further accommodations!”
“We felt totally comfortable leaving Archie with David and Marcy for a week while we ran off to get married! We were able to totally relax knowing our little guy was in good hands. They send pictures multiple times a day, are super flexible with pickup and drop-off times, and are overall just the best.”
“Great experience with Grace. She has a fenced backyard that the dogs can play in. She provides daily picture updates and tells u how your dog is doing. Very accommodating to any requests. Would definitely book again!”
“Sherry and Walter are just amazing ! They took really good care of our Luna , sending us pictures and updates on a daily basis Sherry’s pictures are professional level We would use them as our cat sitters in a heartbeat Thank you again”
“Jonalynn was awesome and came in clutch for a last minute booking with my Bully/Pit mix. She was awesome. My dog Bleu loved his stay and has been sad since leaving her.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Bruno and Victoria! From the very beginning, they were incredibly communicative and made us feel completely at ease. Daily walks were provided for both my Yorkies and I was sent lots of photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while being away. Leaving our dogs with someone new can always feel a little scary. However, Bruno’s friendly, kind, and caring nature immediately reassured us that our dogs were in great hands. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and attentive dog sitter!”
“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.”
“Gustavo was an awesome sitter for my baby! He was so attentive and caring with my cat and made sure she got the best care and love. Would definitely recommend.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Richmond Hill
Juliana was my very first pet sitter for my dog. I was so nervous about the experience and from the very start she put us at ease. She had everything we needed (especially for a big dog) that made our trip away for the weekend stress free. She set-up an early meet and greet, sent daily pictures and updates, had space for a big dog to roam, a big crate to accommodate his stay, and a seamless drop off and pick up process. I will definitely book with Juliana again!
Vanessa did a amazing job looking after Lana Banana. She was very accommodating and helpful to me. I was very stressed out. She picked her up at the airport because I had to turn around and get the next flight at 9p. Vanessa sent me pictures and updates making me feel happy and at ease. Lana loved being with her..she even got a special meal because she didn't want her kibble!!! So wonderful. Lana looked beautiful when I picked her up bathed and everything!! Vanessa was very loving, caring, when above and beyond!!! Highly recommend!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH VANESSA!!!!!
If I could give more than 5 stars I would. My wife and I had a wonderful experience with Megan and Brian - they are extremely communicative, always willing to send photos and updates, and were extremely nice and friendly throughout. Our dog had a wonderful time in their care, we will definitely be using them again.
Kimberly was amazing! Before Gracey's stay, we met in person to go over everything, which immediately made me feel comfortable. She was quick to communicate, sent regular updates and photos, and took such great care of Gracey. I especially appreciated that she took her out and helped socialize her, something Gracey absolutely loved. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy, active, and in such caring hands. I would absolutely book with Kimberly again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.
Kevin and Chie were EXCELLENT! They cared for and treated my sweet Teddy sooooo amazing. I was updated throughout the days with lots of pictures and videos. Teddy was smiling the whole stay! Chie kept Teddy with her at all times. I will be rebooking FOR SURE next time. They are great and caring + very responsible! Thank you so much again!
Mehnaz was my blessing 🙌, text her with very short notice and bam , I went from a very stressful situation to being blessed by a sitter that was able to give me the peace of mind and give my dog not only love but the attention to detail was something I wasn't giving my own dog, she not only took care of him but I also learned what real kindness is, ....THANK YOU MEHNAZ 🙏
Charlie took great care of Wolly-Buddy. Since it was a new environment, I was a little concerned about how he would adjust, but Charlie’s daily updates and pictures reassured me. He was also very responsive whenever I checked in. Buddy seemed happy and comfortable when I picked him up, and I would recommend Charlie without hesitation.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Richmond Hill on Rover is $39.44 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 13,977 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Richmond Hill. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Richmond Hill 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 Richmond Hill 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 Richmond Hill 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 Richmond Hill.
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 Richmond Hill 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.
