“Kathleen was an AMAZING DogSitter. She made sure to check in with me multiple times a day with updates and photos. She was also really thoughtful and would ask about any dietary or allergic issues that my dog might have before giving her any treats.”
“Judith was great with my dog. She kept me updated on his experience via pictures and text. She was very friendly and inviting. I felt like I've know her for years. Her entire family was involved with my pet. She bathed my dog with the most amazing shampoo. It seemed to last for a week.”
“Thai is great- as always! He’s attentive, kind, patient, easy to communicate with, and very experienced with dogs. I trust him and feel very at ease knowing my dog is with him and being well looked after!”

“Miso had a great time with Diane! Diane is super communicative and kind, and I deeply appreciate her patience and understanding when he was anxious the first day I left him. Loved that she sent regular updates and super cute photos. Tbh, I was really nervous to leave him away from me, as he has only been away from our apartment once in the two years we’ve moved to NYC. I had nothing to worry about as he was super relaxed and happy when I picked him up! She was receptive to all of my tips about him and unique things he liked (like being sung to, lmao). Miso will definitely be seeing Diane again!!”
“We absolutely loved Michael and Michelle caring for our fur babies. We went on vacation for 2 weeks and were sent numerous photos and updates which kept our minds at ease. They were very knowledgeable in understanding the special meds and diet our pets needed. We can't thank them enough. Highly recommended.”
“Joseph did a great job taking care of our dog! He maintained excellent communication, was flexible with timing, and both pick up and drop off were hassle-free.”
“This was my first time ever using Rover and I couldn’t be happier. Vanessa was great and took really good care of my dog Jax. I could tell he was very happy when he was there especially when he was playing with Oreo and Moreno!! Vanessa is a great and trustworthy person and definitely will be going thru her again 😊”
“This is the second time we’ve had Carlo watch Odin and it’s always such a pleasure. Carlo is reliable, caring, and make the whole process stress-free. Odin is always happy and well taken care of when we get home, and the updates are thoughtful and reassuring. We truly appreciate the love and attention Carlo gives. Highly recommend!”
“My wife and I were always extremely skeptical about who we’d leave our dogs with. Until we met Megan, Brian, and their Beagle Duke! From the moment we met them they were very kind, friendly, & loving. Any question I had for them they were very quick to respond as well as updating us with many photos of the boys daily. We had absolutely no worries about Montego & Mamba. If you’re looking for someone to take care of your fur babies the way you do then look no further! They are THE BEST.”

Sarah was great with my dog! She communicated really well, was able to pick up and drop off my dog and I know that he had a great time because he was so happy and wiped out when I got home from work. He even got to play with her dog! Thanks so much Sarah, we highly appreciate it and recommend her to anyone needing doggie care!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Rockaway Park on Rover is $67.53 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 13,739 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Rockaway Park. 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 Rockaway Park 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 Rockaway Park 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 Rockaway Park 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 Rockaway Park.
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 Rockaway Park 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.
