“We highly recommend Ken and Irene. We received daily updates and photos of our girl and they went above and beyond to ensure she was eating (she’s very finnicky) by cooking her fresh chicken and getting some additional dog food for her to try. We felt extremely comfortable with leaving her with them!”
“Melissa and her entire family were great. Our highly energetic Australian Shepherd had a wonderful stay. Melissa sent us updates including pictures and videos. Bailey was walked and had play time with several other dogs. We had great confidence in leaving our dog with Melissa and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for care.”
“Cathy: I want to thank you so much for taking care of Brodie and Shay ! Their few days with you from 5/5/2025-5/8/2025 were amazing. They came home happy and content and loved while I was gone. Your an amazing BABY sitter and so kind. I appreciate all your warmth and care when I was away. They will be back to you the next time I am out of Town. YOU are the best! Thank you so much, again,”
“Natasha and Hamir took wonderful care of our beagle mix. They sent updates and photos daily. He was very comfortable with them which made our trip more enjoyable to know he was in such great care.”
“Jennifer took great care of our cockapoo. She has a lot of experience with dogs, and is a great communicator (including sending plenty of pictures). We had a very positive experience.”
“Sara and her home were the perfect fit for our anxious dog, Mazie. Sara is very knowledgeable about dogs, their behaviors, and how to handle them. She successfully gave Mazie medication 3 times a day and prepared special meals for her. We received photos via text while we were away showing how happy and acclimated Mazie was there. We have already booked another stay with Sara. Thank you Sara!!!”
“This was our 3rd time booking Bingo with Ann & her family. Ann sends pictures of Bingo from time to time. We enjoyed our vacation knowing that our pet is in a good place while we are away.”
“This was the first time since rescuing Lucy 2 years ago, that she was left with someone other than a family member. It was a week long stay and Doreen was very accommodating. Perfect home for a dog with separation anxiety and the fenced in yard was such a plus. I received updates and frequent photos of Lucy. I would recommend Doreen wholeheartedly.”
“Jadyn was EXCELLENT with my dog Sam while I went away. She sent me pictures and updates through out the whole stay. I would high recommend her, and will definitely continue to use her for dog sitting services. Thank you so much Jadyn :) we love you 🩷”
“Banksy was so happy at Juan's home. Juan did a wonderful job taking care of Banksy. He sent us photos of Banksy while we were away. Banksy was in good hands and had a fun time. Thank you Juan!”
“Nova stayed with Jocelyn for over 2 weeks while we were out of the country. As usual, Nova received amazing care! I received updates, pictures and videos daily. It is a great feeling to not worry about your pet when you’re on the other side of the world. Thank you, Jocelyn!!”
“We travel frequently for long trips and our usual sitter was not available this time and so we chose to use Rover and found Ankita and her beautiful family . From the time of meet and Greet I knew that I couldn’t have found a better dog loving home for my coco . The love care and affection they showered on coco was evident from the multiple daily updates we received in form of videos and messages . Coco was the happiest puppy ever and I bet she is going to miss them so much - especially their Dog Panther who is such a sweet heart and their little son who became coco’s best friend and companion to play all day :) Coco has found a new second home and we will surely be using them again at our next time away”
“Our dog Lincoln stayed with Suzanne for 4 days. She took such great care of him and sent updates and pictures throughout his stay. I’d highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”
“Wow, Karine and Ryan were such attentive caregivers for our small pup, Mikoh. We felt totally at ease leaving him with them for a week while we traveled outside the country. Karine was meticulous in caring for Mikoh, and sent multiple updates daily informing me of Mikoh's play times, eating habits, and overall wellbeing. It was also nice knowing that Mikoh was having some nice social time with other pups while we were away. I would wholeheartedly recommend their care for your pup, and look forward to working with them again in the future. Thank you!!”
“Lisa is wonderful! She sent us pictures of our pup every couple of days and gave us updates. She is so accommodating and caring. I will definitely ask her to dog sit again in the near future.”
“Rebecca & Rithichai J. Took such great care of our Pup while we were away for the weekend. The communication was great and very prompt, including pictures of her adventures with them. Will definitely be booking again when we need to be away!”
“Sonia is an amazing dog sitter! Very kind, caring and responsible. Treated my dog like her own. Lives in a beautiful neighborhood to walk dogs. Very easy to talk to and arrange dates and times. Sent pictures every day. My dog made new friends and had a nice vacation with Sonia and her family.”
“Roberta and Travis were great to work with. Fast communication and our NOAA was happy and exhausted at pick up! She played with their pup Marshall and came home a very content pup! We will definitely use them again in the future!”

Kathleen watched Otter for a full ten days and that is no small feat. She did great providing a warm safe and loving environment for our 10 year old pitty who acts like a puppy and has tendencies to get into trouble. This stay was no different but Kathleen excelled well above expectations. Kathleen sent many videos and pictures of Otter snuggling up with her kids and around the house. When we returned from our trip Otter was relaxed and well cared for. I give Kathleen my highest recommendation and would 1000% book with her again, if she would have us haha. 10 out of 10.
Joanna is amazing! She took such great care of my dog, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was with her. She has a large, securely fenced backyard where the dogs have plenty of room to run, play, and burn off energy. It's clear that she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. I appreciated the updates and the care she provided throughout the stay. I would absolutely recommend Joanna to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter. We'll definitely be booking with her again!
Bianca took wonderful care of my dog and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She communicated with me throughout the day, sharing updates and letting me know how everything was going, which I really appreciated. I would absolutely recommend Bianca to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive to their pet.
Tyler is an amazing sitter. My pup Jesse, loved him and the meet and greet and practically pulled my arm off to get into his house on the day of booking. She had a great time with the other pups. Tyler sent pictures and Jesse was a very happy pup when she came home. 10 out of 10 will be booking again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Valley Cottage on Rover is $64.38 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 13,136 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Valley Cottage. 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.
96% of Valley Cottage 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 Valley Cottage 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 Valley Cottage 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 Valley Cottage.
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 Valley Cottage 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 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.
