“My dog had a great time with Jennifer, Thomas and their kids. They’ shared photos of her getting petted on the couch and going on walks. She was exhausted when she came home after having had a very fun day with this lovely family.”
“We had a family medical issue and was able to book Jacqueline quickly. Our dogs are both rescues and it matters a great deal to us who we bring into their lives. Jacqueline immediately made us, and our dogs, feel comfortable and within 5 minutes of being with them, our eldest was resting in her lap. Jaqueline sent constant photos and updates and we are very grateful to have found her and will for sure book her again. TY again, Jaqueline. That last note was from the pups!”
“Nicole has a wonderful fenced property and is extremely attentive to our puppy and senior dogs needs, making sure they are getting along well with her other guests, sending lots of photos and updates! We would love to book again!”
“I had a great experience with Maria. It’s evident that she and her family truly love animals based on how well they cared for my cat, Pumpkin. Maria also responds quickly and happily sent photos showing Pumpkin as happy and healthy, which I really appreciate. 10/10 I will be booking again! Thanks Maria!”
“Janice takes wonderful care of our labradoodle Gus! He loves to stay with her, and gets so excited when we arrive. Janice always provides updates and shares photos of Gus so we can see how he's doing when we're out of town. We love knowing he's safe and comfortable when we have to travel.”
“Kristen was wonderful.our Missy had a great time. She didn’t want to leave her friend, Kristen ‘s dog Jackson, who she slept with for naps and bedtime. Couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. Kristen is wonderful”
“Rebecca is so wonderful with my Boston Terrier Elvis. He is nearly 14 and almost blind so I am always a little nervous to leave him in a new place, but it was obvious that he was well cared for with Rebecca. She made both of us feel at ease and it is so nice to know that Elvis has a home away from home. It make traveling and time away so much easier on both of us, thank you Rebecca!”

“Kenniqua (Kiki) took amazing care of our Gypsy during a recent short vacation. One can tell right away how much Kiki loves dogs, having a beautiful and mild-mannered hound herself! We felt perfectly comfortable leaving our girl in Kiki’s care and will seek out her services again in the future.”
“We Love Caroline! She sent the sweetest update pics and was lovely to work with. Easy communication, good vibes all around. I’ll def be contacting her again for hangs with my pup.”
“Katherine was a great sitter for our dog, Shy. She sent us photos everyday and we could tell from the pictures that Shy was happy and being well cared for. We'll definitely reach out to her for our next trip!”
“Was so happy to find someone to take care of our dog during a holiday, and we felt better knowing he was safe with Mario! We did a doggie day care day with him in advance so they could get to know each other, and our dog was excited to see Mario when we dropped him off for an overnight! We received updates during the stay also. Would definitely recommend Mario and will book him again for future dog watching needs!”
“Lola seemed happy and comfortable when I dropped off and picked her up from Angel. She has a great space for dogs and I appreciated that she took all my crazy dog mom requests into account. Would highly recommend her!”
“We had SUCH a wonderful experience with Meghan & Sean—and so did our pup! Our 3yo dog is nervous around new people and can be reactive. We were worried about how she would do staying with a family with young kids. Meghan & Sean listed to our worries and helped up brainstorm ways to put our dog at ease. And it worked like a charm! We were so grateful to the extra time Meghan & Sean spent to make both the humans and the doggo feel positive about the plan. We loved getting pics of the crew on their daily walks. It was also really really REALLY nice to see how much love Meghan and fam have for all animals, and how positive they were about our sometimes tricky dog. Our dog had a great week and we will definitely return to Meghan & Sean for future doggy needs, whether it is another week or a shorter visit. Highly recommend, zero notes!”
“Leslie boarded Sadie, our 15 yr old Cockapoo, on short notice and was amazing. She was responsive, asked all the right questions, and was flexible when there was a change to our plans. During Sadie's stay Leslie shared regular updates, which we always appreciate. Sadie came home surprisingly happy and energetic for an old lady. Thank you Leslie!”
“Miranda was lovely to work with for a five night trip. My pup seemed so comfortable and happy, she kept me updated and the process was so smooth! He can have some general and separation anxiety and Miranda was ready to manage anything that came with it. I will absolutely rebook with her in the future.”
“Beckie and her family were the perfect home away from home for our high-energy 2yo German Shepherd. She has a beautiful and massive back yard and provided photo updates throughout the stay. We’ll happily trust Beckie with Echo on future trips and highly recommend her!”

This was Timmy’s first time boarding with Amy, and everything went wonderfully. Amy was easy to communicate with, sent regular updates, and was very attentive to his safety. Best of all, Timmy had a buddy to play with and seemed to have a great time. I would happily book with Amy again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Shokan is $40 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $44 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 240 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Shokan. 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 Shokan 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 Shokan 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 Shokan.
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 Shokan 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.
