“Chialing watched our dog while we were away for a few days. She sent us photos of several times a day and our dog looked very comfortable and happy while away. She did a fantastic job!”

“Thank you Katherine for watching my little girl for the second time. I appreciate you sending me video clips on how my little lady was doing while I was away. I know she was in good hands. Thank you again! 😀”

“This was our first time using Rover, so we booked a one-night stay as a trial before our upcoming vacation. Everything went really well! When we first dropped off our golden retriever Lily, she was very excited and anxious (which is normal for her), and Robert immediately took her for a walk to help her settle in. He then sent us an update saying she settled in quickly, which we really appreciated. When we picked Lily up, she seemed happy and well cared for. We just booked Robert for our upcoming vacation! Thank you Robert!”

“Reggie was well taken care of and happy while staying with Rafaelina. She was excellent at keeping us informed and sending photos daily. Would definitely rebook with her in the future.”

“Omg what an amazing first time experience. I am a new dog mom an I was so nervous to leave Kobe. Stephanie and Corey are simply amazing. So welcoming and inviting. Kobe had an amazing g time with his new friend Luna. Again thank you both for taking care my baby Kobe. We definitely need a play date soon ???”


“Riti was amazing with Maggie! Riti's dog Sky is adorable and very friendly. We loved hearing about Maggie and Sky's adventures. They became quick buddies. Riti sent lots of a pics and was always quick to respond to any texts. Maggie came home happy and looking great. Thanks Riti!”

“Omar was an amazing sitter!! He was so responsive, kind, and Ruffle absolutely loved him. I am so grateful he was available at the last minute and will definitely leave Ruffle with him again soon!”


“5 STARS!!!! Victor is a loving and talented pet person. He saved me in a last minute travel situation! I have a big & powerful dog who is doing her best to be good & calm, but does not always nail it! He was AMAZING with her!! I could tell that she felt totally comfortable and loved the whole 2 weeks I was gone. He walked her a lot and was very understanding about her special attributes & need to destroy toys. She slept in bed with him & was allowed on the couch, which was really comforting for her. I booked him the day before I left town and he was professional, pleasant & flexible with timing. He obviously has a great connection with animals & is an overall lovely person to communicate with on the daily (he sent pics & videos everyday). This is the first time I have picked her up after being away that she is genuinely happy & chill. Def book him!! I have recommended him to my whole family & all of my loved ones who own dogs. He lives on a quiet street with really wide sidewalks, good if your dog has dog reactivity. Perfect experience from start to finish.”


“Sandra and San were absolutely exceptional with our dog, Luna. From the moment we met them, it was clear they genuinely care about the animals they look after. They went above and beyond in every aspect of Luna’s care. Their attention to safety and protection gave us complete peace of mind, and they took the time to learn every detail of her routine—from her meal schedule to her individual needs and preferences. They even asked for our veterinarian’s name and contact information in advance, which showed how prepared and responsible they are in case of an emergency. Throughout Luna’s stay, we knew she was in loving, capable hands. The level of care, professionalism, and genuine affection they showed her exceeded all of our expectations. We couldn’t recommend Sandra and San more highly. If you’re looking for people who will care for your dog as if they were their own, look no further. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Luna—we will absolutely be booking with you again!!”

“Jatna is amazing and sweet. She took care of my cat very well with patience. And sent me text and pics regularly How my cat was doing. I sent a lot of items so my cat felt like He’s in home. Jatna packed all things clean and neat in a bag on the last day. I was very impressed!”

“Ryan was a phenomenal sitter! He was quick to accept my last minute request. He was attentive and followed all my instructions while sending video and picture updates at my preferred cadence! Ryan is great with dogs and even offered a few toys and treats of his own while checking with me first to see if ok. Ryan was an amazing sitter and I plan to use him again!”


“We’re so grateful for the amazing care Sujaya gave our dog, Bosston, over the weekend. They were incredibly attentive, especially when Bosston’s belly wasn’t feeling the best and during the fireworks, which usually make him nervous. She went the extra mile to comfort him and kept us updated the whole time, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell Bosston was in loving hands. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!!”

“My dog Parker had a wonderful time. It was so nice to know he was treated as family and loved while away. From the updates to pictures was wonderful. Stephanie and her family were amazing. Can not say enough how wonderful she is. Thank you for treating my baby like your own!!!! Best care ever”

“Heidy is really friendly and very attentive. Patch had an amazing time with her dogs and always kept me updated with fun pictures which made me feel very reassured and confident. She cleaned his paw before going inside of the house since it was raining outside. When I picked up Patch, he was happy and tired, which indicated he had a good amount of activity and attention. I have no complaints about the service; everything was impeccable. The house looked clean and secure, and the care was very personalized.”


“This was the first time being away from our dog and Nicole did a great job at making him and my family feel at ease! She regularly kept me updated with messages and pictures and took very good care of him. Will definitely use her again!”

“Ria is amazing! She has been sitting my pup for the past few months and it's been a great experience. Harris (my pup) is always excited to see both Ria and her partner when I drop him off. Harris has also made a new best friend in her dog as well! 10/10 would recommend you trust your fur baby with Ria.”

Jenette was terrific with our baby girl. It was our first time to leave her with anyone so we were nervous, but Jenette put us at ease. She stayed in constant communication and always responded very quickly. She well organized and detailed. We will definitely be leaving our dog with Jenette again!

It’s so relieving to know Reyna is in such good hands with Pachara and Steven, so much so that she gets sad to leave them! This was my second time booking with them and definitely won’t be my last. They treat my dog as if she were their own and there’s nothing more I can ask for!

Janis was wonderful with Benita! She was super responsive, kept me updated, and sent videos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Benita is a shy puppy, but she looked happy and comfortable with Janis. I really appreciated her care and would definitely recommend her!

Brayhana is the best. I rely on my dog to tell me how a sitter does, and Rosie makes it very clear that she adores her. Rosie gets excited as soon as we turn onto the block and bounds toward the front door. I know she’s is treated with love and care, and I appreciate how Brayhana checks in each day.

Riti was amazing with Maggie! Riti's dog Sky is adorable and very friendly. We loved hearing about Maggie and Sky's adventures. They became quick buddies. Riti sent lots of a pics and was always quick to respond to any texts. Maggie came home happy and looking great. Thanks Riti!

We left our doggy again with this lovely family - who now have a baby who is also so sweet with Wilbur. We love them so much and love knowing Wilbur is being taken care. During the heat wave, they made sure to take special care (walking in the morning, ensuring AC is on) as our dog gets super hot outside.

Jesus took wonderful care of my dog Benji while I was away. I really appreciated the frequent updates with photos and videos throughout his stay. Benji can be a little cautious when he meets new people, but Jesus was very patient, caring and made him feel comfortable. It was clear that he received plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. When I picked him up, he was happy and relaxed. I am so grateful for the excellent care and communication and would highly recommend Jesus to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter. I would definitely book with him again.
I cannot say enough amazing things about Lakeema! From the moment Winter arrived, I knew she was in great hands, but Lakeema exceeded every expectation. She treated Winter like one of her own, and it was clear that Winter absolutely fell in love with her and her family. Throughout the stay, I received updates that gave me so much peace of mind, and when I picked Winter up, she came home happy, relaxed, and literally smiling. It was obvious she had been showered with love, attention, and care the entire time. What truly touched my heart was the kindness Lakeema showed me as well. She even surprised me with a birthday cake, which was such a thoughtful gesture and completely unexpected. That level of care and generosity speaks volumes about the kind of person she is. As a dog mom, finding someone you trust with your fur baby is priceless, and I can confidently say Winter has found her sitter for life. We are so grateful for Lakeema and her wonderful family, and I know Winter is already looking forward to her next visit! Thank you, Lakeema, for loving Winter like your own. ❤️🐾🎂

Monica was great with my two shih-poos! She was loving, extra attentive, and took care of several details, including insulin shots and careful walks with my older dog who is diabetic and blind. She sent videos and photos, and was lovely to deal with. I recommend!

Beatriz and her family genuinely care about our fur babies as if they were their own! My dogs are older, one has arthritis and separation anxiety, yet Beatriz gave him the love and attention he required. She was extraordinarily accommodating. Her home is spacious and very pet friendly. She sends daily pictures and updates. When I am making travel arrangements, I check her availability first because I wouldn’t want anyone else to care for my pets during my absence. Thank you Beatriz!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Yonkers is $45 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $74 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 13,775 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Yonkers. 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 Yonkers 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 Yonkers 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 Yonkers.
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 Yonkers 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.
