“This was my first time using River and I could not have chosen a better person to leave my dog with than Kate. She kept me up to date as to how he was doing which did a lot to ease my mind. I would highly recommend her to anyone that is in need of someone to watch their pets.”
“She was great with our 6 month old golden! He was very timid of other dogs and she slowly acclimated him to other dogs taking his timidness into consideration. I will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Sam was the best! Very accommodating and you know that she cares about animals. Treated my dog Jaxie like her own and I could tell she was loved and had a great time away from home. First time using this service and my expectations were blown away, will definitely rebook with Sam in the future! Would give more than 5 stars if possible.”
“Kasia did such a good job updating us on our dog while we were away. He loves spending time with her. Our dog looked so happy and loved in all the pictures! We knew he was in the best care while we were away and didn’t need to worry about him! ❤️”
“Our dog Casey had a wonderful time with this provider! She was welcomed into the family making friends with the host children and dogs. They went on nice long walks each day and had outdoor play time. I would definitely recommend using Ema!”
“I highly recommend Daniel for watching your dog while you’re away! He watched my very needy husky Apollo and took great care of him. He sent me plenty of updates and made my husky feel like home with undivided attention. Thanks Daniel! Will definitely be keeping Daniel in mind for my next trip!”
“Lesley was amazing as always! I swear she is a dog whisperer. My little Yorkie (who can admittedly be a handful AND seems to hate everyone) adores her. I couldn’t be happier with her service and am grateful to have found her.”
About: I have been walking dogs and taking care of cats and dogs for years. I give cats and dogs some attention and play with them. I am currently available on weekends and week nights for walking dogs. I am flexible with the times on weekends. I can take dogs for more than 20 minutes to give them more exercise and an enjoyable time. If you need your dog (s) to stay at my house overnight or during the day on weekends, I can look after them, play with them, and walk them. I have a large fenced yard.
“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!!”
“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!”
About: I’ve had 2 dogs of my own previously & hiked them around many trails in the area. My special skills would be that I am very patient when it comes to sniffing the grass!! I’m currently able to fit pet care into my routine and would love to spend time with yours! Feel free to reach out to me for more info I have an apartment with plenty of space for a pet. Your pet will be treated as my own, and be well loved and cared for!
“My Bella and I absolutely love Kimberly. It is so comforting that when we get to Kimberly's, Bella runs over and goes right into her home. Kimberly sends me pictures and compliments about my Bella....it makes my heart smile. THANK YOU to Kimberly for making me feel like my Bella's at her home away from home.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats all my life. I am happy to walk, bathe, feed, play, and cuddle! Comfortable administering meds or any other special requests. I recently lost my soul dog, so trying to get some extra dog love <3 I work full time but have a hybrid schedule! Usually work 9-5 M-F. Happy to check on pets before/after work and on lunch break. I have a small unfenced yard that I can take a dog to on leash. Happy to provide a crate if needed. Have loads of toys
“Destiny has a lovely home that is very practical for petsitting. She has zones and rooms that can be closed off. Her beagle and cat both did well with my cat, no one was traumatized. But the best of course is the loving family my pet enjoyed. They doted on him and tolerated all of his quirks. I felt like he was so well cared for.”
“We left Parker with Crystal while we were on a 3 day family vacation. Crystal sent us pics of Parker enjoying his time at her house, while we were enjoying ours. Parker was happy and healthy when we returned to pick him up and we wouldn't hesitate to use Crystal again to watch and care for our dog!”
“Amy was lovely to work with and was very accommodating of our and our dog's needs. Her offer to pick up and return our dog took a stress off of a busy travel schedule. We would definitely recommend her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Shortsville
This was the first time ever leaving my dog. He is a certified emotional support dog for my PTSD. The hotel would not let any emotional support animals come regardless of paperwork. Jeffrey was absolutely wonderful with keeping in touch as well. Sending many pictures. Apollo was very happy while he was there. He provided exceptional care.
Jeffrey was wonderful with our sometimes nervous pup! He went above and beyond to make him comfortable and happy and was incredible sending pictures and communicating with me throughout the stay. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone really confident and skilled with all dogs (even ones with quirks)!
Carol is absolutely WONDERFUL!! She is a beautiful person and incredibly loving of our Lani. She’s a great communicator and so considerate of the dogs needs. She gave Lani and bath and even got her a new harness as she had grown out fit the one I sent with her. All around 5* I am so fortunate to have found her!!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Shortsville is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $74 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 312 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Shortsville. 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.
94% of sitters in Shortsville 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 Shortsville 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 Shortsville.
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 Shortsville 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.
