“Kim was fantastic, and my dog was so happy at her house. Kim sent lots of photos, and communicated well. I am so happy with Kim’s services, and will be returning again soon. Thank you!”
“Indigo had a great time with Rochelle and her family! They were easy to communicate with and sent us updates with photos. Rochelle was flexible when our return time changed a bit, which was much appreciated!”
“Marie was a god send. So patient with my Suki. She understood everything about her and was so thorough evaluating her behavior patterns. Hiring a sitter is one thing hiring someone who truly understands your dog is entirely different. We truly appreciated the care she provided and a loving home environment. She went above and beyond making her home a home away from home for our girl. We will definitely be looking to her for our future care/sitting. Thank you Marie! 🥰”
“Haley was absolutely amazing with our dog, Leia! Super responsive, showed genuine care for our pup, sent daily pictures, was flexible to needing dates adjusted. Leia also had a couple smaller medical issues that Haley was more than willing to assist/accommodate to while Leia was in her care 10/10 would recommend!”
“Another fun stay for Snoopy. Since staying with Lourdes Snoop has built his confidence with new people and places and expanded his experiences. We couldn’t be happier!”
“I had an amazing experience with Rick! He took exceptional care of my dog and treated him like his own. He was reliable, communicated regularly with updates and photos, and made sure all his needs were met.”
“Aaron took amazing care of Tucker and Lucy! He kept me updated with messages and photos, made sure they were comfortable, and treated them like his own. Both dogs came home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I felt completely at ease the whole time. I’ll definitely be booking with him again—highly recommend!”
“Lesley was phenomenal! She took River at the last minute and provided excellent care, including sending me multiple photos and videos each day so I could keep up with my pup. I was much less anxious about leaving her knowing she was in such great company. River seemed really relaxed, too, and Lesley was very knowledgeable, just taking everything in stride. Highly recommend this sitter.”
“I can't recommend Anthony and Jayson highly enough! Corin had an absolute blast. He loved spending time in the yard and came home happy. What really stood out was how responsive the rover was throughout the stay; I never had to wonder how things were going. I would absolutely book again the next time I travel. Five stars without hesitation!”
“Our dog Comet came home after a week and was in the best overall condition ever. He just went about normally and was just in great shape. No anxiety or tiredness. When we picked him up he was part of the household and just showed he was totally comfortable in the house.”
“Kiara took such a great care of Max! She also saved our lives as she took our last minute request after the pet sitter booked weeks in advance cancelled 30 minutes prior to drop off. Kiara came to the rescue and even picked up max in no time. We had a tournament out of the state and Kiara helped us loving our dog as if he was hers. She sent several pictures and kept us updated all the time. I will definitely let max again with her. :)”
“jenn and her family were such lovely people and maddie really enjoyed her stay with them. they are so loving and took great care of my little pup. i can't wait to book with jenn again!!”
“Debra took such good care of our dog, Lucy! We were nervous to leave her behind for the first time while we went on a trip but she was in great hands and was happy and well cared for. Getting daily updates from Debra was great and helped tremendously. We will absolutely use Debra as a sitter again in the future ❤️”
“Lucy has a great stay with Serafina and Sky! She has a great backyard and Sky couldn't be friendlier. They went on walks everyday and she even sent me pictures throughout the week!”
“Cara and Dan were wonderful with Murphy! They handled his quirks and kept us up to date with photos. Murphy can be an anxious dog, but he came home happy! We love that they only accept 1 booking at a time and allow the dogs to feel at home with them. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Cara & Dan to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Kate was great with our 2 dogs' second experience with Rover. Our smaller one is an anxious rescue who takes a while to get comfortable. Kate was patient and understanding with her. I definitely recommend boarding with her.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 320 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Rush. 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.
91% of Rush 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 Rush 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 Rush 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 Rush.
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 Rush 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.
