“Kyla is thus far the best per sitter I've ever had & I've had many because I travel a lot. My fur baby has special needs & Kyla took impeccable care of her! I returned after two weeks away, to find a happy & content pup! Thanks Kyla! You rock!!”
“My dog had an amazing staycation with Melissa! It was my first time booking. When it came time to drop my pup off she became anxious, she usually is with new people. I was of course worried it might be too overwhelming for her. BUT Melissa assured me she would OK. They let my pup adjust to the environment before introducing her to the other dogs which plays a big part in comfortability. Because of that and Melissa’s care my dog enjoyed her stay. I was updated with 2-4 pictures a day throughout the stay as well.”
“Delmy and her daughter were great! They sent photos and videos constantly. Her house was clean and she even let me come and meet her before I even booked. It was very comforting knowing she wanted me to feel comfortable leaving my Remi with her. Thank you so much!”
“Dawn was wonderful! Our two dogs stayed with her for the weekend. She has a big fenced-in backyard for playtime and couches for snuggles! We received texts and photos with updates and knew they had a nice, relaxed visit. Dawn took great care of our little ones!”
“Jinay was awesome and her family couldn’t have been sweeter and more welcoming to Zeke. She was flexible and communicative and kept me feeling reassured that he was in the best hands while I was away. Highly recommend!”
“Cynthia was great! It was our first time using Rover and it was a positive experience. Our dog was Well cared for and Cynthia sent pictures and Videos Showing us how our Dog was doing. Cynthia is caring and knowledgeable and we were very happy she was able to watch our dog this weekend!”
“Eliana is literally the sweetest person my dogs could’ve ever stayed with. She sent me so many pictures of my dogs and kept in contact with me throughout my whole vacation. I can’t even tell you how satisfied i am with her. My dogs loved her! I will definitely be booking with her again on my next trip!”
“Sandy is the most caring dog sitter. It is nice to be able to go on vacation and not worry about my dog. Also, Sandy’s dog Lacy is a great companion for my dog Nora. Nora is always so happy to see Sandy and Lacy. Sandy responds instantly to text, sends pictures, and treats Nora as her own. Her house is dog friendly and Nora is welcome on the couch to snuggle. I feel blessed to have found such a loving sitter. Respectfully, Jennifer Pena Proce”
“Marcia was great. My dog felt totally at home and she treated my dog as if it was hers. She has plenty of running space in the backyard and doesn’t kennel the dogs. Also sends frequent photos so you can see how your dog is. Will continue to use Marcia.”
“I love the way that Catherine sent me photos of Honey during the day having fun with her new friends. Honey came home exhausted, so she must’ve had a blast. Thank you so much Catherine for taking such good care of our lil pup.”
“Jamie was a great host. She sent us pictures several times during the day and was always responsive when we asked how our baby was. We would highly recommend her and plan on using her all the time.”
“I cannot say enough good things about the care Freedom gave to my senior dog, Chunky. He’s an older dog with some anxiety issues, and Freedom handled him with so much patience, kindness, and calm energy. They went above and beyond. They took him to the dog park not once but twice, made homemade treats, and even gifted him a sweet new bandana. When I came home, I could tell Chunky had been genuinely happy and well cared for. It’s hard to find someone you trust with your pet, but I feel completely at ease leaving Chunky with Freedom anytime. I’m so thankful we found them, and I’ll absolutely be booking again.”
“Gerald did a great job with my senior foster, Pam. She deals with significant anxiety and back-leg pain, so I was nervous about leaving her in a new space with a stranger, but I had nothing to worry about. She settled in quickly and even felt comfortable enough to trick Gerald into getting off the couch so she could steal his spot. Although she’s usually reluctant to be active, she went on several walks with him. Gerald was also great about sending regular photos and updates, and very flexible when I ran late for pickup. Highly recommended for anyone with a senior or high-needs dog.”
“Emma was fantastic. This was my first experience leaving my 4 month old golden. My golden is young and full of energy, the sitter needs to be special and Emma certainly was. I highly recommend Emma and will ask her again in the future.”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Smithtown is $60

Thank you so much for the wonderful care you gave Ivy during her stay at your home. We appreciated the photos of her, but were really surprised by how observant you were of some of her special little quirks that we think make her such a love. It showed us how caring and loving you are for all these sweet little animals you are!
My dogs Bella and Bailey were in amazing hands with Rachel, Henrik and their children. They treated my dogs like they were their own from the moment they entered their home. My dogs are 14 years old and have some special needs and Rachel was up to the task! She even cooked rice for Bailey when he had an upset stomach! I would definitely recommend them to anyone who needs to have their dogs taken care of. My dogs got spoiled and would love to visit again in the future! Thanks for everything :)
Kristen was absolutely wonderful. We had never left our dogs with a sitter before, but Kristen took care of our girls as well as we could. Peace of mind cannot be bought at any price but Kristen’s love of animals enabled us to enjoy our vacation without worry. One million stars!
Naomi was great! Normally I wouldn’t book with a sitter so new to Rover but when we met her and learned she works at a Vet’s office, we felt a lot comfort and had complete trust in her. We would 100% book again and recommend her to anybody. She updated us about 3 times per day (with pics) and she even gave our little guys a complimentary bath. Beautiful property she lives on as well!
Our doggos took an instant liking to Kyla, whom from this first instance of contact was so incredibly polished and professional and really helped put us at ease. She sent is pictures for updates and answered all of our questions. We will definitely be repeats, our dogs had a superb time and hardly missed us at all

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Smithtown on Rover is $63 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 2,921 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Smithtown. About 89% of Smithtown sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
