“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!”
“It was my first time leaving Cotton with a sitter after a couple of years so I was not sure if he will adjust to being in a foreign environment with strangers however after the first update and pictures I could see that Margarita is a friendly and caring sitter and he was at ease. I received frequent updates and pictures as details on how he was behaving. I will highly recommend Margarita & Christian when considering to leave your furry friend they will be in a safe environment and will be well taken care of. Communication from beginning to end was great and I will definitely use their service in the future.”
“Michele was absolutely amazing with my dog! From the start, she was communicative, attentive, and genuinely caring. She kept me updated the entire time with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Her kids were completely in love with Arepa, and it was clear he felt comfortable, happy, and so well cared for. Michele truly treated him like her own. I would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter. Thank you so much, Michele!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Shirley for the weekend. He has separation anxiety and she was accommodating towards his needs to ensure he had a stress free stay with her. I appreciate how she was flexible with my drop off and pick up times. Would definitely hire her again!”
“Vanessa and her family are the best! She made me feel very comfortable with leaving my puppy for the very first time, since birth, with her. She suggested a meet and greet so that I can see where he will be staying and he was able to sniff around so he wouldn't be in a shock when I drop him off. She's very friendly and she sent me videos and pictures throughout his entire stay with her. She loved my Blue as if he was her own pet. She has a repeat customer in me! Thank you again Vanessa!”
“Thank you so much for babysitting Juju and taking such wonderful care of her! You’re truly the best dog sitter ever. She absolutely loves spending time with you and Marlee—it’s clear she feels right at home with you both. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your kindness and the love you show her. Thanks again for everything! 🐾💕”
“I’m so lucky to have found Ruth-Ann and Brandon. I had to take a last minute trip and was worried about finding suitable accommodations for Bleu. These two were amazing and accommodating. I got lots of pics and videos Bleu during my time away. She looked happy and comfortable and that’s all I could’ve hoped for.”
“Vanessa dog boarded my cocker spaniel for 3 nights. In that time I received daily updates (with photos) and top notch care. Shea was very well groomed and given a lot of love and attention. Vanessa even treated a skin issue Shea had and returned her brand new! I would highly recommend her in the future!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Emily made it such a great experience. She took great care of Lolah from April 1–11 and sent photo updates that made me feel at ease while I was away. Lolah was clearly in good hands. I would definitely book with her again—highly recommend!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Juliana’s service, and we were nervous, like leaving a first grader at day care for the first time! We met with Juliana way before our boarding and the meet and greet went very well and Jin Jin was already comfortable around her and at the backyard. Juliana was very calm and friendly, very gentle and I immediately felt that Jin Jin would be comfortable as she is very anxious with noise and prefers a quiet environment. Jin Jin stayed with Juliana and her mother for over a week and we got photos and updates and Juliana was responsive to my questions. I eventually felt relieved knowing Jin Jin was doing well and that she was in good hands and well taken care of. When Jin Jin got home, she acted all normal and the experience with boarding didn’t traumatize her and I could tell that she enjoyed the time at Juliana’s. I am glad I found Juliana and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter.”
“Grace is a Caring and Extremely Loving Sitter. She keeps you abreast daily on how both my dogs, Rocky and Brooklyn were doing. I can’t being to say enough about her skills and dog friendly environment. I Would HIGHLY recommend her! Thanks Again Grace”
“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.”
“Aritra could not have been a better sitter for Pimento. I have an energetic pup who loves to play and also chase squirrels so he needs commands when possible, Aritra followed all my instructions wonderfully and pimento also made new friends during his stay! Will definitely be booking again for the summer months 😊😊😊 thanks A for making pimento a happy pup. He loved his stay!! I highly recommend Aritra to book with.”
“Kristin is absolutely fantastic. She was quick with her reply, extremely communicative throughout my dog’s stay and most importantly my dog came back very happy. I would highly recommend Kristin and plan on using her again.”
“Qin En took good care of my cat Echo while I was out of town. She sent me multiple pictures/videos a day so I can enjoy my vacation while making sure my cat is doing well. She genuinely loves cats and actually any animals! 😂 highly recommend 😊”
“Iwona was great with Mason! Really appreciated how well he looked upon pick up. It was clear she took the time to groom his face while he was in her care. He was a very happy and content little boy in her care.”
“Michelle was a Godsend!!! I was referred to her for a last minute dog sitter. The moment I met her I knew she truly loves dogs. Michelle put my mind at ease and I knew Rocki would be in excellent hands. Rocki is normally standoffish and LOVED her immediately after meeting her. She sent pictures, videos, and updates throughout the night. Rocki is very scared of thunderstorms and she petted her throughout the night to keep her calm. I will definitely use her again! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!”
“Sam and her family hosted our cockapoo Diamond for a week. Working with Sam was an amazing experience from the first day we inquired! Diamond's stay was amazing, he had lots of fun which we could tell by all the photos that were sent to us. He was loved and taken very good care of for the week. Sam is also a great communicator which was very important to us because Diamond can be a little particular and a picky eater. Sam kept us informed about how Diamond was eating and how he was adapting to his new environment. Hands down we give Sam 10 stars🌟!”
“Lisa was once again amazing with Kai. He is very comfortable with her. Lisa made sure to update us often and sent many pics and videos of Kai during his stay. I will always recommend Lisa and will continue booking with her! Thank you!!”
“Wendy was absolutely wonderful. This was the first time we left Phoebe alone and she bonded so well to Wendy. Got updates constantly with adorable pictures. Going forward Wendy will be our only petsitter”

We’ve used Ning multiple times to care of Oreo, and every time has been excellent. She sends lots of photos and updates, which gives us great peace of mind while we’re away. Oreo was recently prescribed medication, and Ning did a fantastic job making sure he took it. Thanks again Ning! 🫶🏻
I just love the way she cared for my pet Dusty, it was his first time with her and she managed it. In the Beginning he was a little difficult at the end he improved greatly I could see the changes in him at home. I would highly recommend her to anyone. I would consider her again.
Princess had a wonderful stay with Ruth-Ann and Brandon! They took great care of her, and it was clear she was comfortable and well looked after from the pictures they provided. One of the things I appreciated most was that Princess had the opportunity to socialize—not only with her handlers but also, at her own pace, with some of the other dogs there. When I picked her up, she seemed happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which gave me great peace of mind. A huge Thank you to both Brandon and Ruth for providing such a welcoming environment. I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again and will highly recommend their services to others looking for caring, dependable sitters.
Mehnaz was the absolute best. We had to be out of town and with only a couple days notice, Mehnaz was available and took excellent care of Chi-Chi. Chi-Chi was very nervous to be away from the family and Mehnaz was able to calm her down and relate to her very fast. We were also late picking her up due to the long distance we were driving and unforeseen traffic conditions, Mehnaz was very accommodating and understanding. We really appreciate how well Mehnaz took care of Chi Chi.
Amy was such an amazing caretaker for Apollo! We needed someone to watch him during a long trip, and since he had never stayed with her before, she generously offered not one, but two meet-and-greets. The first was to meet us and Apollo, and the second allowed him to get comfortable in her home before his stay. From the very beginning, Amy was incredibly sweet, kind, and welcoming. Her family was just as excited to have Apollo and made him feel right at home. She took the time to listen to all of our instructions and learn about Apollo’s preferences, and she truly embraced having him as part of her family while we were away. Throughout his stay, she kept me updated with pictures and messages about how he was eating, sleeping, adjusting, and whether he seemed anxious. Her communication was excellent, and she was always so accommodating and thoughtful. Apollo was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for, which gave me so much peace of mind while traveling. I trusted Amy completely and would absolutely have Apollo stay with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, reliable, and communicative sitter!
Gracie was phenomenal! She was incredibly communicative, kept us updated throughout our entire vacation, and took such great care of our Pepper. Knowing Pepper was in good hands gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared for her and treated her like one of her own. We are so grateful for everything she did and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend! 🐾💕
Jancid was amazing!! I strongly recommend her services. She is very genuine, and very caring when it came to welcoming my pup in her home. She went above and beyond, and took great care of my dog. She is communicative, and sent pictures and videos of him throughout the boarding experience.
After almost two years of not seeing my baby, Ingrid and her family welcomed her back into their home with open arms! My girl had a few new changes to her health since they last saw her and they didn’t even miss a beat with accommodating her and caring for her just as they did before. Ingrid sent lots of pictures and videos and my baby was visibly happy staying with her and her family for the weekend. Can’t thank them enough for giving me the peace of mind that she’ll be taken care of the same way I would take care of her while I was away! Ingrid will absolutely treat your pet like her own!! Thank you again!
Vanessa extremely communicative and sent lots of pictures and videos which I love! Her and her partner took my baby out in the woods for walks and followed all of my instructions carefully. They are also right near JFK, so they are an easy drop off/pickup when you’re traveling through there! Your dog will certainly get lots of affection with them
This was my first time using Rover and working with this team. I am happy to say I had a great experience. I had to travel for a week and I am happy to say that all my nerves were gone when I received updates (pictures and videos) of my dog and when I constantly got immediate responses from the team through text. When I picked up Churro, he still had his spirit as if I never left. Thank you for caring for him.
I have to say I was worried to leave my baby behind but Vanessa made this experience so great that I can’t wait to leave my baby with her again. She kept me updated with messages and pics. My baby had the time of her life and I can’t wait for her to see her little doggy friends again.
Abbie and Peachy were so so sweet. I was looking for someone reliable near me and my dog Roo seemed to love her stay. Abbie has a great aura from our first meet and I felt like my dog would be safe with her. Very communicative and flexible. I will definitely be using her services again. Thank you!
Dayanara was so helpful and was able to watch our dog, Ginger, for a last minute booking. She sent updates, included photos, throughout each day. It was good to know that Ginger was being cared for while we were away. This was our second booking with her and we hope to use her services again in the future.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Saint Albans
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Saint Albans on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 13,760 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Saint Albans. 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 Saint Albans 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 Saint Albans 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 Saint Albans 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 Saint Albans.
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 Saint Albans 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.
