“Denis and his wife were fantastic with our cat. There are clearly cat people - and we felt great knowing Dean Martin was staying with such kind people....”
“Tokyo’s stay was amazing! He was cared for with so much love, and he really enjoyed spending time with Margarita & Cristian. I highly recommend their services. Thank you for everything — we’ll see you again soon!”
“Kristen was amazing to work with! She sent daily updates with adorable pictures of my little old lady, which totally eased my nerves since it was my first time leaving her in someone else's care. I'd happily leave my dog with her again.”
“Steven and his wife took incredible care of Stede- he got frequent playtime and we were super reassured by daily photos and videos. Extremely kind, friendly people!”
“Vanessa took great care of our Dexter while on vacation. We got lots of updates and reassurance that he was doing well and having fun. She accommodated an early drop off and we trusted her fully!! Love Vanessa and Dangles!”
“This is my 2nd time having my baby Bandit stay in her home. Sam is very helpful and she sends me a daily update. I always feel her love and care for my baby Bandit. Highly recommended!”
“Diana was incredible! My pup clearly felt so comfortable in her home, and I appreciated her consistent check-ins to let me know how my dog was doing. I can't wait to book her again!”
“I left my poodle-mix named Scruffy, with Megan and Brian so that I could go away with my husband for a few days to visit family. They were incredibly kind and trustworthy, and I could tell as soon as a I met them that they would be good sitters. Their own dog, Duke, is a good-natured and well behaved dog, and my dog really liked him. Their home is super clean with a cheerful and loving atmosphere. They took such good care of Scruffy, I could see when I picked him up that he had been happy and well cared for. Megan and Brian had also sent me photos of my dog throughout while I was away, which I really appreciated. As soon as you meet Megan and Brian you can see that they are genuinely good people who truly love dogs. I give my highest recommendation to them, and they will always be my first choice to sit my dog when I am traveling somewhere that I cannot bring him. 10 out of 10.”
“Adriana has cared for my puppy multiple times and she is consistently amazing. Ollie is a nervous dog but she does a fantastic job of helping him feel secure and relaxed. Adriana sends photos daily and is very responsive to all communication. She is always number one on my list when I need a sitter!!!”
“Judith showed so much love for our fur baby Wolf Puppy in early August! She cared for our other dog Hugo late in July with such care that we knew she'd be great with WP. Her kids and husband gave him all the cuddles and playtime he could of ever wanted. We will definitely use her again for Wolf Pup and Hugo!”
“Juliana was absolutely wonderful. She sent updates daily and by the end of his stay, Teddy didn’t want to leave her! Grateful she was able to take care of him for us.”
“Kiersten and Casey were the best Dogsitters we’ve had hands down! Incredibly attentive, tons of pictures, and it was clear June was as happy as could be. Thanks again guys!”
“We love David and Marcy so much! We always feel totally confident that Archie is in good hands, and they're super flexible about pickup and drop-off times. Can't recommend enough. Also their resident dog, Nuno, is a true king.”
“My pug Charlie had another wonderful time with Abbie and Peachy. Charlie feels really safe with Abbie even though she is a little anxious and Peachy is a great friend that helps Charlie to stay active and socialized especially in this cold weather. Outstanding hosts!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Grace! I left my cat Aria with her for 5 weeks, and she took absolutely wonderful care of her. Aria usually gets stressed in unfamiliar places like the vet or groomer, so I was especially nervous about how she would react to other cats and a new environment. Grace handled everything perfectly. She started Aria off in her own room so she could feel safe, and then slowly introduced her to the rest of the house and to Grace’s cat. Within just a few days, Aria was roaming around comfortably and even socializing! Grace sent me frequent updates and photos, and I was amazed at how relaxed and happy Aria looked. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she wasn’t stuck in a cage (like the “cat resort” I thought was our only option before I found Grace), but instead had the freedom to explore, play, and feel at home. I’m beyond grateful to have found Grace. She’s thoughtful, patient, and truly understands cats. I’ll definitely be using her for all future boarding needs—we won’t go anywhere else! Highly recommend!”
“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.”
“Sherry and Walter looked after our little puppy Figo for a night, and were fantastic sitters! They played with him, made him feel very comfortable with lots of snuggles, took him on a lovely walk and sent us lots of updates throughout. We’d recommend them highly!”
“I had a long trip planned and thought of sending my dog all the way out to Queens from Manhattan so he could have a yard and a family! But I never knew I was booking THE BEST FAMILY IN THE FIVE BOROUGHS. This is the kindest, most loving, careful family ever. My dog got so much attention and care, and their little girl is his new best friend. Cannot recommend these folks enough.”
“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!”
“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.”

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!
We cannot recommend Julian enough she watched Oliver for 5 dyas and went above and beyond. I received wonderful daily pictures and videos updates and Oliver looked so happy and relaxed. Julian followed all feeding instructions precisely. I will definitely book with her 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.
