“Great communication and very friendly! Our dog seemed very comfortable with Rebecca and her family and seemed to really enjoy her time! Definitely will be booking with Rebecca again!”
“We don’t leave our dog often and get nervous leaving her with someone we don’t know. But she did great with Kimberly and her family. She loves attention and kids. We chose Kimberly because she has children that could play with her like our kids do. She can’t tell us but I am sure she had a good time and got plenty of attention.”
“Bianca is incredible, truly a second home for our pups! They come home happy and with cute extras like treats and bandanas. It’s such a relief to go on vacation and not be worried about our furry kids.”
“Kara was the best! From the meet and greet to my dogs coming home, she kept in touch sending photos and updates and my dogs were so comfortable with her! Definitely will book again!”
“Madilynn was a great! She communicated quick and was very flexible throughout the stay. She asked if we had any special requests and made sure all questions were answered. Madilynn sent us pictures during our trip and I could tell our dog felt right at home snuggled up on the couch with her. I would highly recommend Madilynn and we will definitely rebook with her for our next trip.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. Small to large from hamsters to dogs and up to horses. We have a bilevel home with a dog door upstairs and one downstairs so your fur babies have access to the back yard that has a 6ft fence at all times. I have two kids 12 and 9, two cats, and a small dog of our own. Only working 2 days a week in health care I am home most days and able to take care of your fur babies. I have a 6ft fully fenced back yard with two dog doors to inside the house, one up stairs and one downstairs for easy access to outside/inside
“Kayla took our Boon on short notice over the holidays, after another provider cancelled due to an emergency. So responsive and accommodating!! Boon came home happy and healthy! We loved getting pictures and seeing he was well taken care of.”
“Hailee was great at taking care of our dog Luna last minute! She sent pictures to update us on how our dog was doing. We had great peace of mind when our dog was with Hailee!”
“Elise did such a good job with my puppy! Our cute little furball came home happy and very well loved. Not only did her kids give her lots of attention (which is just like home), but our puppy got lots of interaction with their dog too, which was really helpful for her socializing. We knew she was in good hands! And as an added perk, Elise even sent a picture and video of our puppy playing in the snow. Too cute! Thank you, Elise! We will definitely be returning!”
“My usual dog sitter was out of town, so I booked with Ashley. I was a little hesitant at first, since I had never used the app, but everything worked out great! Ashley was super helpful pre-dropoff and was always in communication throughout the stay. My dog had a great time and came home completely wiped out. Will definitely book with Ashley again”
“They are amazing. Super last minute. But took Zoey with open arms. They kept me updated the whole time with quick responses. I’ll definitely be using them every time I take a trip. My Zoey was even happy.”
“AWESOME!!! That is how everything went with Lindsey and family! Our Meet & Greet was so warm and friendly - it felt like we were visiting with old friends! Buddy even rushed to their doorstep and instantly took to everyone. Pictures and updates came daily, which reassured me that Buddy was being well taken care of. I would recommend Lindsey in a heartbeat and will definitely have her care for Buddy again!”
“Jason and Bridget were awesome with our pups. This was our first time using rover, and leaving our pups with someone we didn’t know and we were rest assured everyday from multiple pictures, updates, and love throughout the day. They were so flexible with our inconveniently delayed and rescheduled flights and so easy going throughout the whole process. Highly recommend Jason and Bridget and will be using them again!”
“We had such a great experience! They were so kind and easy to work with, and they took amazing care of our dog while we were away. They kept up with regular walks, sent thoughtful updates, and really helped us feel at ease the whole time. We’re so grateful for them and would absolutely book again!”
“Marina did an excellent job on taking care of Harley. She went beyond what I expected. Took Harley out for walks, and even took Harley to her favorite dog park. Keept me updated and sent pictures. I highly recommend Marina.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Syracuse
We had such an amazing experience with Mckehl! She was absolutely wonderful with our dog and made us feel completely comfortable leaving him in her care. She was loving, attentive, reliable, and kept us updated throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind 🫶🏽
Henry had the time of his life over at Kara's with her pups! Kara was wonderful! We met her and her dogs before leaving him with her and she was so sweet and so kind and made me feel very comfortable leaving him with her. I appreciated the care and love she gave Henry while we were gone. She even picked him up and brought him home from our house because of early and late flights. We will definitely be using Kara in the future!!
Edgar was an awesome dog sitter. Provided timely response, daily updates with pictures and videos. His two pups made it real easy for Chevy to make friends real quick. Edgar also provided some good excersise for Chevy which is a huge plus especially for herding dogs. Would highly recommend and would book again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Syracuse on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,257 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Syracuse. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
98% of Syracuse sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Syracuse landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Syracuse home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Syracuse.
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 Syracuse 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 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 UT 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.
