“Cyndi and her sister Sonnie were terrific dog sitters. This was the first time away from home for my dog Lenny. They looked after him extremely well, gave me frequent updates (texts and photos) and made me feel very comfortable that my dog was in great hands. I highly recommend, and I will use them again!!”
“Kerri took the greatest care of our Alfie while we were away. She provided daily pictures of him and went above and beyond caring for him when our return flight was canceled and we had to stay away longer than expected. Alfie had not only her family to interact with but her dogs as well. We would definitely use her services again.”
“Korin watched Hunter our King Charles Cavalier over this weekend. We were without a sitter at the last minute. Korin was happy to save our weekend plans by accommodating us. She took great care of Hunter and kept us updated throughout the weekend. I highly recommend Korin for all your pet sitting needs.”
“Having just moved to Long Island, my husband and I were in search of a reliable dog sitter for our dog, Kilo. We always had friends watch him in Miami, and were a bit nervous leaving Kilo with a stranger for 3 nights. Initially, we checked out some kennels in the area, and found them quite depressing. That led us to look on Rover, and Daniel's profile came up first. I reached out to Daniel to inquire about booking with him, and within minutes Daniel had responded and we set up a meet and greet for later that night. I stopped by with Kilo to see Daniel's set up/house. I could immediately tell that he was a dog person and was going to treat my dog as his own! I was nervous because Kilo can be a little territorial with other large males, but Daniel reassured me that everything would be fine. I dropped Kilo off later that week for his stay with Daniel and his family. Daniel sent pictures of Kilo playing outside and responded to any questions/concerns I had about Kilo during his stay. I felt totally confident that my dog was in good hands at his house. Daniel and his family will definitely be my dog people on the island! I absolutely recommend their services. I've already booked Kilo's next stay, and I also look forward to dropping Kilo off every once in a while for day care services just so he can run around and play with other dogs in a safe environment!”
“Catherine takes special care to accommodate each pet individually and follow any instructions . I have 2 seniors and they do very well at her home and in her care. They have stayed with her several times. She updates frequently which is a relief to me while away. This past stay was the longest so far and all went well. Great pet sitter”
“Bear was very comfortable with Yi and his family, which, puts me at ease. I will definitely recommend Yi AND I have every intention on using him again when my family head out of town.”
“I can not express how extraordinary Lenny was with our Max! We’ve never used Rover before, and let me just say that as soon as I met Lenny, I knew Max would be in great hands! She made a promise to my 5 year-old that she would make sure that we knew Max was okay and would send updates and pictures it was superb. Our dog was so happy, content and had absolutely zero anxiety. Lenny is highly recommended and we will be using her again. She’s 10 stars in our book! ❤️”
“Will was wonderful with our dog Ace! He sent us photos played with him and we ended up booking a second night! This allowed us to do stuff that we needed to do - knowing ace was in such good hands! I would highly recommend Will and we will definitely be using him again!”
“From the very beginning, communication with Gabby was Fantastic. A couple of weeks before our our trip we coordinated with her to bring both of our dogs to her place for a sort of meet and greet with her and her family (dogs included). Right away our dogs and her dogs hit it off, as they are very playful and loving dogs. We also hit it off with Gabby and the rest of her family as well, as found them to be very kind, responsible, caring and without a doubt dog lovers. Her house and yard located within a nice, quiet neighborhood are very well suited for dogs. This all made the drop off a few weeks later a very smooth process. During our trip, which was out of the country, we were provided with periodic updates and pictures via text messages. Knowing that our little ones were in good hands and most of all, appearing to be their usual wacky selves, made our trip out of the country a very enjoyable one. One thing we were worried about before even having met Gabby was communication. In the end, communication turned out to be A+. We would highly recommend Gabby to other families and look forward to using her again in the near future. ”

“Had such a wonderful experience with John. From the moment we dropped our pup off, we felt completely at ease knowing she was in caring and capable hands. Communication was great throughout and Cookie came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which says everything. It’s obvious that every dog is treated like family and in a clean and safe space. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend John to anyone looking for trustworthy care for their pet!”
“This was our first time using Rover. I was very reluctant to use a person I did not know, or friends didn't know. However, I am so glad I took the chance with a 5 day/overnight in Sarah's home. It's a relief she only takes one animal at a time since our dog doesn't like other dogs. At the meet and greet, Sarah asked many questions to get a feel for Milo (eating & bathroom habits, walking, sleeping habits etc...) To start, her home is absolutely immaculate. I received a daily update with pictures on how our dog was adjusting & doing overall. Milo was displaying some quirky behaviors which Sarah reported right away & thought was cute/funny. She was very accepting, flexible in many ways, and an absolute delight to talk with. It is apparent she is a dog lover! Upon pick up, Milo was happy and all his belongings were packed & ready to go. We plan on using Sarah again for our next trip, if she's available.”
“Sara was an amazing sitter! From day one, she provided excellent communication and was very responsive to my questions. During the trip, she sent several updates and pictures, so I knew that my pup was well cared for. In some of those pictures, my pup did things that she'd do at our house, so i knew that Sara treated her as a family member.”
“We left our dog Holly with Patrick for 8 days. Patrick sent pictures of Holly. It was reassuring to see how her days were going. We picked up Holly and found her to be happy and well cared for. We would definitely recommend Patrick for anyone looking for a care taker for their dog.”
“Judyana was the perfect dog sitter! She communicated quickly and was patient with my hyper dog. She sent me pictures and updates. Her dog also got along with mine which was awesome because they can play together. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future. I highly recommend her for other dog owners who need someone reliable and responsible.”
“My Zuri recently spent some time with Sandy. She sent me pictures and videos of her playing and enjoying her stay. Sandy is awesome! She took great care of my puppy.”
“Great experience with Kristen! My pup really liked her and her home. My dog is often anxious but she was very relaxed and happy when I came to pick her up after the stay! I really liked Kristen too—very nice person. Highly recommend!!”
“Laurie is Professional extremely through has a LOVE for the Dogs and makes you feel st ease. We interviewed 6-7 dog Sitters and there was just No Comparison. We had to drive 35-40 mins each way to her home to drop off our very Spoiled English Bull Dogs to her home. She sends updates accommodates pick up drop off times. It really helped ensure a relaxing Vacation with out our babies. We have used her multiple times and Reccomened often.”
“Christine took good care of my pup for a day. Very communicative and provided picture updates all through the day. The spacious yard is a plus for all pups. Will definitely use again !!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Selden
I seriously cannot say enough amazing things about our experience! From the very beginning, I felt completely comfortable and reassured leaving my puppy in her care. She was very attentive, patient, loving, and treated him like he was her own. She kept me updated with pictures, communicated with me throughout his stay, and made sure I knew he was happy, safe, and being well taken care of. I never once felt like I had to worry about him. He came home happy, well taken care of, and clearly had such a great experience with her. I’m so happy I found someone I can trust with my pet. I would 100% book with her again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable!
Daniel did a great job of taking care of our dog Rocky while we were away. I was a little anxious about leaving him but felt much better after our Meet and Greet. He was gentle and patient with my shy guy and it put us at ease. He sent videos of Rocky daily and accommodated our apprehension about having Rocky around other dogs. I definitely recommend Daniel for your pet sitting needs.
Alana took Cara of Max for one night and she took care of him really well, she kept me updated send me pictures, and took max for walks, by the time I went to pick him up Alana gave me treats and a instant picture of Max which was really cute for sure I’ll be requesting her again.
Michala and her family were awesome start to finish! She communicated right away, was very pleasant to speak with and the pups were very well cared for, came home tired and happy! Can't ask for anything more, I whole heartedly recommend Michala to care for your fur children! Happy Holidays!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Selden is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $79 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 of October 2026, there are 1,449 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Selden. 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.
97% of sitters in Selden 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 Selden home-away-from-home, 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 Selden.
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 Selden 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 , 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 .
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.
