“Love Love Love leaving my dogs with Irene and Ken. No matter how short their stay is, they always send me photos of my pups. I feel so confident to leave them with Irene and Ken and know that they are being well cared for and loved. Can't say enough about my experience with them!”
“First time using Rover and this family was very accommodating. From their communication and assistance with app questions, the experience was hands down exceptional. We were away for 4 nights and they made us feel like Pickles was safe with our family. Could not recommend them any more.”

“Alarie and her family were absolutely wonderful with our dog. From the moment we met them, we felt completely at ease leaving him in their care. They created such a warm, loving environment for him, and it was clear throughout his stay that he was well cared for. Alarie was highly responsive and shared frequent updates and beautiful photos throughout his stay, which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful to Alarie and her family for treating our pup like one of their own. We would absolutely recommend them and would be very happy to have our pup stay with them again!”

“Mike was absolutely wonderful\! He picked up Judge right on time and delivered him safely and on schedule\. He was incredibly caring and attentive, taking Judge for walks and making sure he was comfortable and well cared for throughout the entire trip\. Judge is a big boy—about five times the size of most dogs—and he slobbers quite a bit\! Despite that, Mike made him feel completely comfortable, safe, and loved\. I truly appreciate the exceptional care Mike gave Judge\. I highly recommend him to any dog owner looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable\. Thank you, Mike\!”

About: Dogs have always been integral to me and my family, I grew up with unconditional love they provided and provide to this day. I am very skilled and familiar with attentive care, love and fun they require, especially when away from home during boarding. I have a large house, plenty of room to stretch and play and a fenced in yard for sun basking and more play. Currently, I have a cute Boston Terrier girl (Maya), sweet and great with kids and other pets. Board with us! I am free to board and keep my calendar up to date. Prior meet and greet is preferable, (can be a 10 minute stop over) to ensure our pets get along and you feel comfortable leaving your loved companion in my care. Ensuring attentive care for your pet 24-7 and frequent potty breaks if required. Maya will ensure playful company, with cuddle breaks in between. Your pet is equally important as my pet, with full understanding that he/she will miss you a lot! I will make sure that they feel happy and cared for when in our company, with extra attention while you're away.

This worked extremely well. We have a large dog who we brought to meet Irene and Ken. We could see that they were a perfect fit with an enclosed yard and other dogs to play with. We had great communications and the stay worked without a hitch. We enjoyed seeing the pictures while we traveled.

Maureen was absolutely wonderful! She had great communication throughout, and you can truly tell how much she loves and cares for dogs. We felt completely comfortable knowing our pup was in such good hands. I would highly recommend Maureen to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy sitter!
This was the second time boarding my German Shepard's with Suzanne and her family. The experience was amazing, Suzanne is very caring with the dogs. I got pictures and updates which I appreciated and I don't think my dogs wanted to leave her house, they became very comfortable with her family. I highly recommend Suzanne and her family to take care of your fur babies!
Axl is a very reliable dog sitter. She was one of the few sitters that responded and didn’t cancel or ghosted me on the Rover. I truly recommend her for your dog care. Our dog - Peaches - stay at Axl home was amazing. Our dog had a lot of fun with her and her two other dogs. Peaches didn't even notice that we were leaving her with a new family. She was well entertained and taken care off. We were getting updates and pictures from our dog stay regularly. She really took a great care of our dog.
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!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Valley Cottage is $67 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $83 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 13,098 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 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 Valley Cottage 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 Valley Cottage 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 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 , 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.
