“Kelsea, and her adorable family took excellent care of our high energy, super vocal, Coton de Tuléar. Her cute cute gave him lots of exercise and attention. I hope so! I think he misses their family! He definitely doesn't get played with as much at our home. We definately hope Kelsea will be willing to watch him again sometime!”

Milo was calm and happy after his stay.”

“Kyla is absolutely amazing!!! My dogs squeal in excitement and run to her every time I drop them off. They feel completely at home with Kyla and her family, and I never worry for a second when she has my doggies. She takes care of them like they are her own. She is super easy to communicate with, and I get frequent updates and photos. They are my kids, and I used to have so much anxiety to leave them. Not anymore! If she ever stops watching dogs, I’ll have to stop going out of town.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Cody. They took excellent care of our dogs while we were away, even though one of our pups can be a bit of a handful. Their patience and professionalism really stood out, and it gave us peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands. Communication was amazing throughout—they kept us updated with regular messages, photos, and videos, which we truly appreciated. It was so comforting to see our dogs happy and well cared for while we were gone. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dedicated dog watcher!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Syracuse
Phineas stayed overnight at Bianca‘s and he had so much fun. I don’t think he even knew I was gone. He loved Bianca and her family and was able to play with other dogs. The set up was perfect- a fully fenced and escape proof yard. Bianca sent cute pics and videos put me as a dog mom at ease. I will definitely be using Bianca again.
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 August 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 August 2026, there are 1,259 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.
97% 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.
