“Shirley is without a a doubt the best sitter we’ve ever had. It’s clear she truly cares about animals with her whole heart and treats every time she sits our pup as if he were her own. We keep coming back to Shirley again and again because of how easily she relieves us of any worry about how our pup is doing, and how happy he is to be with her while we’re gone. We highly recommend her for any type of service, and especially boarding in her home!”
“Barbara had great communication and provided pics and updates. I appreciated that she provided my pup with lots of activity and our dog was pooped when she got home!”
“I cannot recommend Bailey enough! I was out of the country for a week, with little to no signal, and Bailey still managed to keep me updated as much as she could. My dog, Leo, wasn't eating alot in the beginning and Bailey did everything she could to get him eat and gave him a bath or two after rolling he rolled in poop lol. It was my first time using Rover and I'm so glad I came across her profile! Also, it was a last minute booking and she was able to accept Leo. Thank you, Bailey, for taking care of Leo as if he was your own pup. I know he misses you! Will definitely be rebooking!”
“Eniya is great! She was able to watch my pups at the last minute and she took excellent care of them. This isn’t the first time I have booked with her and it won’t be the last. I highly recommend her!”
“Jo’Ell was really good with providing updates/pictures. Rex — my pup — seemed to have a great time! The fenced in yard was a plus as he likes to be outside. Thanks again!”
“Susan is responsive and easy to communicate with. She took great care of our pup and sent many updates, photos, and videos throughout her stay. Susan has a nice fenced in yard, lots of toys for the pups, and a sweet and caring personality. Highly recommend!”
“First timer to book through Rover and it was a smashing success! Juliet seemed well cared for and entertained while her family left her for a long weekend. I would definitely book with John again. I think that Juliet got to hang with another dog put her at ease in a new home. And loved that we received periodic photos of her enjoying her vacation. Thank you!”
“Jasmine was one of the best dog sitters I’ve had in the Rover group. It is evident she is an experienced dog sitter as well as owner. She was caring and sensitive to all the particular needs and and concerns of my dog. I felt comfortable and confident in having Freddy in her care.”
“This is the second time we have taken our dog to Matt and Michelle and family. They treat him as one of their own and our dog seems to fit right in. They send pictures and videos to keep you updated. We will continue to take our dog there.”
“Kyla is and was so amazing with my fur baby. For one, I was terrified because Eden has IVDD ( nerve condition that caused him to lose the functionality in his back legs) and I was like who is going to watch or even change a diaper on a dog. I have never seen anyone to attentive to my baby as if he were her baby. I’m so grateful to have found her and I will be a repeat client. Thank you again Kyla!!”
“Christina and her family were the perfect house for our 8 month old puppy. They were amazing with him and Charlie and their dog became fast friends. We are grateful to have found a home we trust when we go out of town. Highly recommend Christina!”
“I recently used Andria's service and left my Nina in her care for 10 days. I am very pleased with the overall experience. Andria is very quick in communicating before and during the stay. She sent regular updates and pics during the stay. My pet came home very Happy. Andria and her family took great care of my pet. She is going to be my go-to sitter for all future needs. I highly recommend Andria”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have a dog of my own and have also trained my own pets in the past, including working with younger dogs on basic commands, routines, and good behavior. I’m patient, attentive, and understand that every pet has their own personality and comfort level. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, walking routines, house rules, and any special instructions you have for your pet. I also have some experience caring for cats. While living in Las Vegas, I temporarily cared for a cat in my home, which gave me experience adjusting to the different needs and personalities of both dogs and cats. What sets me apart is that I genuinely treat pets like part of the family. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pet while you’re away, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. Pet care fits pretty naturally into my routine since I already have a dog of my own. I’m used to regular walks, feeding times, playtime, and keeping pets on a consistent schedule. I’m also flexible and can adjust based on each pet’s normal routine and needs. I always try to make pets feel comfortable and safe, whether they’re in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep an eye on behavior, make sure doors and gates are secure, and stick to their normal feeding and walking routines. I also give pets time to warm up to me and don’t force interaction if they’re nervous or shy.
“Danielle is amazing. She is unbelievably kind and accommodating. I really just needed some daycare once, maybe twice, for my pup while moving, but I could tell off the bat she cares about every dog that comes through her door. I ended up doing a handful of daycare days and boarding him. I know my dog can be a pain. He is an anxious old boy and can be high-maintenance at times. I had such peace of mind sending my dog to her. She sent me photos and updates. The only downside is I didn’t find her sooner before moving away. I got to pick up a tired, happy boy every time. If I ever need to board my dog again, I will definitely be making the drive to send him to her!”
“Michelle and Erika were great! They provided plenty of updates, photos and even videos during my dogs stay. They were friendly and reassuring and I will definitely use them again for future stays.”
“Murphy had a great time with Linda and family! She is very easy to deal with and super thorough to make sure that our dog had a safe and healthy stay. Her dog is such a playful sweetie too- she got my very shy dog to play and feel comfortable. I definitely look forward to using Linda again. Thank you so much!”

Janeth and her husband were absolutely amazing with Moose! We got so many pictures and updates throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Moose has lots of anxiety, but he seemed so calm, comfortable, and happy with her. It was clear he was getting lots of love and attention. We couldn't have asked for better care and would definitely book with Janeth again! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for somone who will care for their pet like family!
This is our second time having our dog stay with Barbara. She is amazing, and we feel confident having her care for our doodle. We especially love her amazing communication, the photos ever 3+ times/day, and ease of working with her. Lindey looks forward to her next visit with Barbara!
Jacqueline was absolutely amazing. She helped us with our dog while we were traveling for my brother’s wedding. We last minute needed a dog sitter and Jacqueline jumped right in to help us. She was kind, communicative and our dog was in great hands with her. If we lived in the area we would have 100% booked her again
Since our 2 dogs are seniors (18 & 15) and have special needs, we had to look for a person who understands the challenges of taking care of them. We got lucky with Angelina and how she was able to help take care of our dogs for a week while we were away. She was extremely flexible with learning what works for our dogs, and you could actually see that she cares. She sent us updates and photos throughout the day,on a daily basis, which was very much appreciated! I couldn't recommend her enough, esp if you're looking for a sitter/caregiver that understands seniors and special needs dogs.
Cheryl was a perfect and dog sitter for my 2 year old hyper mixed yorkie. Right away she made "Bentley" feel right at home and provided a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere for him to browse both in and outside her home. She treated him as her own pup by catering to his every need. I'm definitely recommending her services at the highest rating possible and will continue to choose Miss Cheryl in the future. You won't be disappointed with her abilities and experience!
Our dog, Waffles, has been staying with Regan for over 5 years and he always has the best time! Regan is wonderful to work with and we know that Waffles is always well taken care of and having a great time when he’s there. She’s our go to anytime we can’t bring him on our adventures!
Selene took wonderful care of our dog, Peanut! She sent us daily pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Peanut was happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful for her attentiveness and kindness, and we would absolutely trust her with Peanut again. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Westchester is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $67 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 5,275 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Westchester. 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.
95% of sitters in Westchester 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 Westchester 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 Westchester.
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 Westchester 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 IL 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.
