“We wanted to find a sitter in our neighborhood for when we are away. Jane was amazing and took in Siuy as though she was hers. I received constant communications and photos and loved how Siuy and Fancy zoomied with each other. My hope is that Jane would be willing to look after Siuy the next time we are away. I don’t think I can trust another sitter!”

“Ekaterina was amazing with Zoey! She gave me lots of updates and took such great care of her. She did an amazing job and her kids were so gentle with Zoey too! During Zoey’s stay, she had to take medication and was healing from a cut on her leg - Ekaterina did an amazing job making sure she was being cared for properly. I would love for her to watch Zoey in the future again!”
“Emerald was lovely and communicative! She sent me lots of photos of my dog and hers playing and hanging out together while I was away, and she was very flexible and understanding regarding arrival and pickup times. Stevie clearly had a wonderful time <3”
“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 :)”
“I was honestly very nervous about leaving my dog with someone for the first time in 7 years — I think I had more separation anxiety than he did! 😂 But Isabelle made the whole experience incredibly easy and completely worry-free. She sent me daily updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious very quickly that my dog absolutely loved her — and dogs are usually pretty good judges of character! Isabelle clearly knows dogs, understands their behavior, and knows exactly how to handle and care for them. By the end of the stay, I wasn’t sure if my dog was going to be happy to see me or ask if he could stay with Isabelle a few more days. 😂 I would absolutely trust Isabelle with my dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and experienced dog sitter. Five stars without hesitation! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Deanna took wonderful care of our dog while we were out of town. She was incredibly communicative, sending regular updates and photos that gave us peace of mind throughout our trip. Our dog has special medical needs and requires several medications each day, and Deanna handled everything with great care and attention. When our flight home was delayed, Deanna was also very flexible and accommodating with our pickup time, which we truly appreciated. We felt completely confident that our dog was in excellent hands, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with Deanna again. Highly recommend!”
“We took Jonathan and Rebecca's help with our Yorkie Dexter for 3 days. They took very good care of him and constantly kept us updated of his well being and what's he been doing during his stay by sharing text messages and pictures. Highly recommend to avail their services. Thank you both Jonathan and Rebecca!”
“Michael watched our doggo, Hastings, while we were away on an anniversary trip. While we were away, Michael was communicative and flexible when we had some travel issues. We felt confident that Hastings was in great hands! We would absolutely book with Michael again!”
“I was so grateful Tanacka agreed to watch Mimi last minute. I was happy her children showed Mimi so much attention. She thrives off of attention. Mimi was not ready to leave. Thank you Tanacka for taking good care of Mimi!”
“I’ve never used Rover before and was nervous. I have to boarding places just to see what was out there. Jonathan has been more than amazing . I’m so glad to know I have someone to watch my dog. We had constant updates of her and pictures with his family. They treated kiwi as if she were their own .”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Natalia and her husband! They were truly exceptional sitters for our dog, Sai. From the moment we dropped him off, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such capable and caring hands. Natalia sent us daily updates, complete with photos, showing us all the fun activities Sai was enjoying—from walks to outings at the dog park. It was clear Sai was having the time of his life! When Sai experienced a minor GI upset, they handled it with such care and professionalism, following our instructions perfectly. They showed genuine compassion and concern, which meant the world to us. It's rare to find someone who treats your pet like their own, and Natalia and her husband did just that. When we picked Sai up, it was obvious he had bonded with Natalia and saw her as part of his family. He was looking at her like he was going to miss his new friend, which truly warmed our hearts. We couldn’t have asked for better sitters and highly recommend Natalia to anyone looking for a safe, loving, and attentive environment for their pets. Thank you both for going above and beyond for Sai!”
“Ben was great and send lots of photos with our guy looking happy and healthy. Ben was also really flexible when our travel plans changed and changed again. Was great to work with and our dog was happy and well cared for!”
“I had a really positive experience with Maria, even though Lucy ultimately wasn’t able to stay for the booking. Maria was sweet, professional, and very communicative throughout the entire process. She took the time to do a meet and greet with us beforehand, which went really well, and I appreciated how attentive and honest she was when Lucy became nervous after drop-off. Since this was Lucy’s first time being away from me, I completely understood and appreciated Maria putting everyone’s comfort and safety first. She kept me informed the entire time and handled the situation with kindness and professionalism. I would definitely recommend Maria to others and truly appreciate the care and communication she showed us. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

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 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.
