“David was a fantastic sitter! Went above and beyond for my dog the whole time I was away. Even took extra care to calm him during a storm. Kept in tofu the whole time and sent pictures. Couldn’t recommend more!”
“Highly recommended!! Lauren took great care of my pup while I was away for the weekend. She sent me pictures and regular updates throughout the day to keep my mind at ease. I will definitely use her again!”
“Chris is great! She was totally flexible with us when our pickup time had to (repeatedly) change unexpectedly and our dog clearly had a blast at her place because she's been sleeping since we got her back! I'd recommend Chris to everyone!”
About: I recently had a German shepherd that lived to 14 years old. I know how to care for senior dogs, I know what it entails. I have no problem administering medicine. He also wasn't friendly with other dogs and I know it's hard to find sitters who also don't have animals. I do not have any animals in my home which will allow me and my family to give all the time, love and attention to your fur baby. I am a stay-at-home mom so I can give your pet plenty of attention. I have a fenced-in backyard that your dog can roam and I like to go on walks. Your dog is allowed to freely roam around my home. I can also crate if needed if you provide the crate. I have a fenced backyard that the dog can access at any time and I have 3 children who would absolutely LOVE to play with and spoil your dog once home from school. If I am at a client's home, I can do whatever the client would like me to do. Feed, fill up the water bowl, administer medicine, let the dog outside and play with him/her in the backyard for a while. I just want the animal to feel comfortable, loved and taken care of.
“Jeff replied very quickly to a last minute boarding. He was able to accommodate a last-minute change after I did the booking. It was a great experience, my dogs were happy and had a great time. It was also refreshing to have someone treat my dogs well and not pass judgement on them just based on their appearance. They are bully breed rescues that look tough, but are complete babies.”
“I feel very lucky to find Arsenii! He’s Bubba’s good friend and regular sitter now. I can always rest assured that Bubba would have a wonderful time with Arsenii. He always takes very good care of Bubba :)”
“Gretchen took excellent care of my dog while I was away. He seemed very happy during his stay. I also received daily photos and updates about how he was doing. I'll definitely use Gretchen's services again.”
“Jomini and her family gave our dog Piper a home away from home! She got a lot of affections, walks, and was treated like a member of the family! I was sent daily updates with pictures. Jomini coordinated with me fairly last minute and I appreciate her flexibility! Would absolutely book again.”
“Our dog Laika had her first experience of being with a sitter for several days and we were fortunate to have met wonderful people in Natasha and Hamir. Their kindness and attentiveness are extraordinary and they ensured to make our dog as comfortable as possible giving her love and care which made her feel as if at home. Natasha and Hamir were communicating daily with brief recap of the day and Laika’s photos from her walk and during her cozy downtime. They were willing to accommodate any requests we had. Natasha and Hamir are one of a kind and we can only wholeheartedly recommend them as wonderful people and dog lovers. We surely found a place we can call a “home-way-from home” for our Laika in the future as well.”
“Alarie and her family were absolutely wonderful with our dog. From the moment we met them, we felt completely at ease leaving him in their care. They created such a warm, loving environment for him, and it was clear throughout his stay that he was well cared for. Alarie was highly responsive and shared frequent updates and beautiful photos throughout his stay, which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful to Alarie and her family for treating our pup like one of their own. We would absolutely recommend them and would be very happy to have our pup stay with them again!”
“Our dog Andy had an amazing time at Mike’s. There was a large yard and a long tie out for him to run around and play to his heart’s content. There’s a pen area attached to the house where the dogs can go into through a doggie door from the house. Apparently Andy loved the sunroom/porch where he could look outside while relaxing. Andy LOVED playing with Mike’s two dogs—he had the best time! Mike was attentive and made and feel at home. He figured out ways to make Andy like his food more. We’ll be using Mike again when we go out of town.”
“Barbara was a great communicator - she provided lots of updates on how my dog was doing. My dog had a really fun time while at her place and i could tell he was well taken care of. She also made me feel at ease leaving my dog with her and was really attentive to my dog’s individual needs and personality!”
“Theresa and Michael are wonderful cat sitters, true pet lovers who took care of Mr Soots for me in every way possible. From cuddles and love to pictures of Soots playing and being his cheeky self, I could see that my cat felt so at home and comfortable with Theresa and Michael right from day one. I would recommend their cat sitting services to anyone. Fantastic people and wonderful hosts for pets.”
“Rebecca was great! She sent me plenty of pictures and kept me updated along the way. She was super flexible and it’s clear my pup enjoyed all the attention! I’ll definitely be reaching out to Rebecca again!”
“From start to finish, Maryline was wonderful to deal with. Her attentiveness with my dog was exceptional. She made the whole process feel like we were leaving our dog with a family member. We got constant updates and photos. Can’t wait to use her services again.”
“Thalya was great and really looked after my dog Duke really well! We were gone for over 20 days and Thalya really went above and beyond to make Duke feel at home! Would recommend to all!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rock Tavern
We had such a great experience with Elizabeth! She was wonderful with our dog and sent us updates every day while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind. She even took the time to research his breed and behaviors so she could better understand him, which really impressed us! She was also very flexible and accommodating when we ended up picking him up at a later time than planned. Most importantly, our dog seemed very comfortable and happy with her. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely book with her again!
Five stars all the way! I’ve used this dog sitter twice now, and each experience has been wonderful. They are reliable, caring, and truly attentive to my dog’s needs. I always receive updates, photos, and thoughtful messages that give me total peace of mind while I’m away. My dog comes home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious they love what they do and treat pets like family. I’m grateful to have someone I can fully trust and depend on. I highly recommend their service to anyone looking for exceptional, professional, and heartfelt pet care every single time.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Rock Tavern is $61 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $67 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 857 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Rock Tavern. 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 Rock Tavern 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 Rock Tavern 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 Rock Tavern.
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 Rock Tavern 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.
