“Alicia and Mikel were amazing sitters! Firstly they took our dog at the very last minute, the same day I started looking. They were willing to watch my difficult dog after a meet and greet, which was great as he is a rescue and has some issues with strangers. Every day they sent updates and pictures, which really put my mind at ease, as this is the first time he's been away from us since we got him. They were even flexible with the booking date as I came home early. I will definitely be using them again when I need to go out of town. I really appreciate the professionalism and the care of my baby.”
“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!”
“First time using Cody and Rover. I usually do not leave reviews but felt I had to. Dropped my Luna off and she immediately took to introduce herself to Cody's dogs. They all got along great,played and had such a great time. I was sent picture and video of Luna playing and having fun. She looked so worn out from having too much fun...lol. they took such good care of Luna, like she was there own. I have another booking with them and all my concerns are gone now that I got to see how much fun she had and how they took such good care of her. So much better than putting her in a kennel for boarding. I will be using Cody and his wife as long as they are available. Thank you for taking good care of my baby while I am gone.”
“Mitchell and Tara took the BEST care of our beloved Yorkie, and seemed to truly enjoy their time with him. It’s so hard to leave a member of the family behind, but I will say that Mitchell and Tara’s communication and warmth put our hearts at ease. Thank you!”
“Crowe and Taylor are amazing dog sitters. We always know Hazel is well loved and taken care of. They send frequent picture and updates. They are great to work with and respond quickly. Highly recommend :)”
“Chandra took amazing care of our pup! She gave good updates and was very understanding with his quirks, especially with it being his first time away from home! Definitely recommend!”
“The best experience! We've never left our dog with anyone do u was nervous but they put us completely at ease and sent lots of adorable photos and videos. You can tell this home is a dog loving home, or dog has the best time! Will definitely call again.”
“Laura was a lifesaver when my original rover cancelled the day before holiday travel. She kept my dog safe and happy all week long and sent updates along the way. My dog is notorious for counter surfing and stealing food but she managed these quirks just fine. My dog is also on multiple medications and Laura kept up with those no problem. I had a great experience and would definitely recommend her!”
“Chris, and her family, were amazing with Harley. He was so well taken care of and loved in their home. I have already booked Harley's next stay. I have no hesitation in highly recommending them.”
“My first Rover experience was wonderful. Cara is experienced and she cared for my schnauzer who is only 9 weeks. I was very nervous about leaving him and Cara put my mind at ease. I was able to celebrate a friend’s birthday with peace of mind. It’s a big deal to me that my pup, Phineas, have good care. Thanks Cara!🌻”
“Kyle was great! We got pictures and videos of Bubba during his stay. He had other dogs to play with and came back home all tuckered out from all of the fun he had! We will definitely be reaching out to Kyle again in the future. 🙂”
“Jana was excellent! She watched our dog Vinnie for 3 days on short notice. We received updates everyday, with pictures, so we didn't worry about him at all. We would definitely use Jana again to watch Vinnie.”
“Porter really had a great time plus was comfortable for his first stay away from home or me. Thank you Pazely for the photos and videos to calm my concerns. Porter will be back!”
“We're a repeat customer for a reason. Anna is an active caretaker who looks out for our dog with walks, backyard playtime and tender loving care. She sent us photos of Riley while we were away, which my family looks forward to getting. Riley was a happy dog upon our return and we knew she had a loving home while we were gone.”
“Mckehl and her family took such good care of our Golden Retriever. He had other dogs to play with and was well-loved by her family. She sent me updates and pictures all during the week that we were gone. I will definitely use her again!”
“Kenzie and family have watched our little dog Pete several times. Pete loves going to their home and playing with their dog Roxy. We are always comfortable knowing he is in their care.”
“Adam and Erica were wonderful! We really appreciated the daily pics and updates. Our dog was well taken care of and loved while we were gone, we couldn’t ask for anything more! We will definitely use them 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!
My sometimes-anxious dog did great at Mary’s, and she gave me complete peace of mind while I was on vacation. She provided frequent updates and pictures, and was also very flexible with pick-up and drop-off times. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!
100% recommended! I can tell Brooklyn really loves dogs. Our golden retriever Nube came home so happy after spending six days at her care. It is hard for all dog lovers to leave their pup when traveling, however we could instantly feel a good vibe at Brooklyn’s home and with her dog Sully. We left to our vacations with peace of mind. Brooklyn sent us pictures with updates. Communication was awesome. I will definitely use Brooklyn next time.
Baylee was awesome! She was super easy to communicate with, and our dog Jude had the best time. He loved playing in her fenced yard and got along great with her dog. We felt so good knowing he was in such great hands. We’ll definitely be booking with Baylee again!

There are 1,284 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Syracuse. About 93% of Syracuse sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

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 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 UT 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.
