“Vincent was amazing. Very responsive and helpful. Had a meet and greet and a boarding. Puppy had a great time overnight, went on walks and was taken care of well. Provided pictures during the stay. Thanks.”
“Five stars for Jane! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I left my beloved pug, Lord Ginsberg, in Jane’s care while I traveled to Mexico, and I truly could not have asked for a better experience. Lord Ginsberg is not your average dog. He has his own routines, preferences, quirks, and very strong opinions about comfort. Jane understood all of that immediately. Her patience was absolutely legendary, and she took the time to learn his specific needs and little eccentricities without ever making me feel like I was asking too much. What meant so much to me was how communicative she was throughout my trip. She regularly sent adorable photos and videos of Ginsberg, which gave me tremendous peace of mind while I was away. Every update made it clear that he was happy, comfortable, and being genuinely cared for. Jane is not only responsible and attentive, she’s also warm, funny, and incredibly understanding. The best compliment I can give is that I could tell she truly enjoyed Lord Ginsberg’s company. She wasn’t just watching him, she was spending time with him and appreciating his unique little personality. She even came to understand his profound and unwavering love of cheese, which any true friend of Ginsberg quickly learns is a very important part of his worldview. When I came home, I found a happy, relaxed, well-cared-for pug, and that’s every pet parent’s dream. I can’t thank Jane enough for the care, kindness, humor, patience, and attention she showed him. Anytime I travel in the future, I will be hoping Jane is available to take care of Lord Ginsberg again. She has my highest recommendation.”
“Nuotong & her husband were loving and caring towards our dog. They sent multiple picture and videos during his stay there. Charlie loved every moment of it :)”
“We heard about Jose through a friend that had used him. We couldn’t be happier. Jose sent pictures everyday and his response to any messages was quick. We will definitely be using Jose again!”
“Ziwei was super kind & nice. Constantly sent pics & updates. I felt my dog was safe and in good hands at all times with her. It will use her again and again! She’s the best”
“Amazing! I have nothing but good words to say about my experience with Stacia! I was impressed with her communication before and after booking, and she was SUPER thorough in her updates while my little frenchie, Jackson, was in her care! Jackson was having so much fun, I don’t think he wanted to leave just yet :) Will absolutely book again, for boarding and just for a little day break for Jackson, too! 100% recommend”
“This is my 4th time using Ekaterina and her family and they are all so wonderful! They are the only people I trust to leave my Loretta with. She constantly sends pictures and updates. My Loretta gets endless love, kisses, and snuggles with her children! If you want the best possible care and love for your pet, please go with Ekaterina!”
“Robert is absolutely amazing! He took such incredible care of our Blu and sent the best videos. It was Blu’s first time ever staying with someone new and wow he loved it!! Robert is kind, thoughtful, and loved our Blu as his own. Thank you for everything! Blu is happy and so are we. We are so thrilled to have found Robert and will absolutely be booking for future stays.”
“Vera was great! She provided updates and photos during Hunter’s stay. It really helped that her dog Gryff was around to keep Hunter company as well. We’ll definitely be using Vera again in the future :)”
“If you're new to Rover or looking for a new dog sitter, Grace is the person to go to. I had an unexpected trip come up and needed to find someone quickly. There's always some unease leaving your dog with someone you haven't built a rapport with yet - but I'm so glad I found Grace. Her thoughtful questions about Ahri before the booking, and the confidence she gave me with her answers, made it easy to trust her with a 2 week stay. While I was away, she sent daily updates with photos and videos. Whenever anything came up - a light scuffle with another dog, an allergic reaction Ahri was having - she gave detailed updates along with how she handled each situation. Even when I wasn't able to respond right away, she kept the updates coming, which really put my mind at ease. I could tell within the first day that Ahri was comfortable - from the way she was running around with Grace to how relaxed she looked resting at her place. I would recommend Grace 1000% and would absolutely book with her again.”
“Syndi had a great 3 days with Tiffany. Easy meet and greet. I always have trouble with the drop off saying goodbye to my pup but Tiffany makes you feel like you are leaving her in great hands. Syndi looked comfortable and happy in pictures. Would definitely use Tiffany again and I recommend her highly.”
“Deanna is amazing. She stayed in contact with us and sent pictures with daily reports. Ferris seemed VERY relaxed during his stay with her. We will be requesting more stays at Deanna’s in the future!”
“What a wonderful family! Pamela takes such fantastic care of our dog while we were out of the country (1 week). Constant communication and photos. Our dog was treated like a member of their family and would highly recommend them to any one looking for a pet sitter!”
“Patricia and her husband were amazing pup sitters. Her two dogs are super sweet too. Nova had a blast! Patricia sent us daily photos and updates about Nova. We’ll definitely be using Patricia to pup-sit in the future!”
“Bhavani V is awesome! She took great care and provided daily updates of our fur baby while we were out of town. We highly recommend her to everyone and trust her with all future boarding needs. Thank you so much, Bhavani:)”
“I went on my trip with a peace of mind knowing that my baby is safe. She kept me updated on what he was doing and sent me pictures and videos. Teddy looked very happy and he had so much fun. My dog have anxiety problem. She did everything she could to make sure he was comfortable and happy. Thank you very much for keeping my little baby safe and happy”
“Anky was very communicative throughout the whole stay, taking time to send multiple updates each day. She also took my pup to the dog park almost every day! My dog had a blast staying at Anky’s and I’d highly recommend booking with her”
“Cherish has watched my dog Rio two times this year and she does an excellent job. She takes care of Rio like it's her own, she sent videos and pics on regular basis. I have no complains and I would highly recommend her. I finally found someone who is right for my dog. Thank You Cherish. Sean P.”
“Kecia is a wonderful, kind animal-lover. She always makes sure to keep me posted about how Simmy is doing and goes out of her way to make sure he is comfortable and happy.”
“Tallin was a truly wonderful dogsitter! I've left my dog with very few sitters before, so I was a bit anxious about leaving him with a stranger, but Tallin put me right at ease with twice-daily updates and lots of photos. I will absolutely try to book with her again next time I need a sitter!”

Brianna was amazing with my dog! She took such great care of her and even went the extra mile by putting a cute bandana on her and making her smell so good with perfume! I honestly thought she had gotten groomed when I picked her up! 😂💕 Such a sweet touch and you can tell she really cares. I would definitely book with Brianna again and highly recommend her!
Nuotong was absolutely amazing with my dog! She was wonderful about sending pictures and videos throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog settled right in and clearly felt comfortable and happy from the start. The fenced-in backyard was fantastic and gave my dog plenty of space to play and enjoy some outdoor time safely. Most importantly, Nuotong cared for my dog like they were their own, and I could tell they genuinely loved having them there. I’ll definitely book again! 🐾
I wish I could give more stars. Vincent is a great person loves animals. My dog Ouzo had great experience with him. Vincent send me photos and videos that my boy having great time. Ouzo never felt homesick or left alone. When I went to pick him up he was extremely clean brushed look like show dog. Thank you Vincent and his family for great service.
I highly recommend pet care! Chunwei took wonderful care of my furry friend during my absence. My dog returned home happy, calm, and in excellent shape. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. It's clear that Chunwei has a huge heart for animals, extensive experience, and complete professionalism. I will definitely use their services again!
Lorraine was super understanding and knew exactly what to do when my dog was having a hard time adjusting due to separation anxiety. She kept me updated every step of the way, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Since my dog was in a new environment, I was worried at first, but Lorraine was patient, caring, and very experienced. Thanks to her, my dog was able to settle in comfortably and felt safe. I highly recommend Lorraine to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pet.
Damian was absolutely terrific with my Mini Dachshund, Jakey! His is very familiar and totally knowledgeable about this breed. Jakey immediately took a strong liking to Damian and his wife when they came by for a meet and greet before sitting for him at their home. I was super impressed and so thankful he was able to accommodate a last minute request for Jakey to stay with him. He sent updates and pictures throughout his stay, to put my mind at ease that he was doing ok and enjoying his time in his care. He had a fun day playing with toys and taking walks and came back home very happy and relaxed. Jakey made a new “buddy” and “girlfriend “ and I feel completely comfortable having them sit for him again. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter on Rover! Thank you both again, so very much, for taking such great care of my precious little baby!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Staten Island is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $64 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 13,773 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Staten Island. 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 Staten Island 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 Staten Island 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 Staten Island.
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 Staten Island 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.
