“Karen was the best. First time using her as our other sitter was not available. She was so easy to work with. She took lovingly care of our dog and she sent multiple pictures every day. That was so reassuring. Our dog came back happy to us.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I cannot say enough wonderful things about my pet sitter! She stepped in very last minute on Christmas Day, and I am beyond grateful that she did. She was truly amazing from start to finish. She kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and messages, letting me know exactly how my dog was doing. She showed up on time for feedings, spent quality time with him, and made sure he was relaxed and comfortable. Seeing how calm and happy he was gave me such peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she watches, and that means everything. I would 100% rebook her without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!”

“Angelina was phenomenal with my older, sweet but anxious pup. She was very gentle with him and understood the needs of an older dog well. She took her time acclimating him to his environment and the other pups. She sent many sweet pics and messages, knowing I was a little nervous about how he’d do, because he hadn’t been with a sitter for some time. Angelina is a wonderful sitter and a kind, loving soul. I was completely at ease knowing my pup was in good hands and we’ll surely he booking with her again. So happy to have found such a gem of a sitter. Thank you, Angelina!”

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.

“Barbara is AMAZING!! She is everything you could hope for in a person to entrust the care of your pet. She is extremely reliable, and takes her job very seriously, and does it with a very warm disposition. Our dog Lanie is older, and we wanted someone who would understand her needs. Barbara really delivered. She's like a dog whisperer. We received updates and pictures everyday, and Lanie was happy, well rested and given EXCELLENT care while staying with Barbara and Chewy. Her dog Chewy has a great personality too, and was a lovely companion for our dog to hang out with. She covered every aspect of Lanie's care with us beforehand in detail, and I have never been more at ease with leaving Lanie with her. We've had a lot of boarding experiences over the years, and Barbara is hands down, simply the BEST! We have already booked with her for another upcoming stay, and I am so happy to have found someone who is so dedicated and genuine. If I could give her 10 stars instead of 5, I would!”

Guru is very social, and her dogs got along wonderfully with him. Since Guru and I are still getting to know one another, it was so comforting to receive regular text, photo, and video updates on how he was doing. Samantha was extremely gracious, attentive, and understanding throughout the entire stay. I highly recommend her services!”

She was also very accommodating when we needed to extend his boarding and even went out of her way to get food for him. We really appreciated the regular picture updates, which gave us peace of mind knowing he was doing well. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. We’re so grateful for her care and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

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!

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Westchester

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Westchester is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 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.

There are 5,440 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Westchester. About 90% of Westchester sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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 IL 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.
