Jennifer was amazing!!! She took such precious care of our Mayo buddy! She responded so quickly, allowed for last minute booking, and sent updates the entire time! Mayo loved playing with the Corgis! He never gets to play with dogs his size so he loved that! They had lots of sunshine and outdoor time! We will use Jennifer again!

Monica was amazing as always! She kept my pup for 7 nights and sent me updates and pictures daily. It’s so nice to be able to leave town and know that your pup is well cared for. Thanks Monica!!

Elyse (and her lovely family) provided the perfect place for us to leave our Chihuahua mix for our trip. She sent lots of pictures and descriptions of his day so that I always felt like I knew how he was doing. She was also quick to answer my texts and any questions that I had. He was so very comfortable there that he ate well, slept peacefully, played tug, snuggled all the humans, went for a car ride, interacted and got his sniffs in at a dog park and played happily with the 1 other pup in Elyse's care. He clearly felt at home. He also transitioned beautifully to actually being back home with no signs of stress. We feel incredibly lucky to have found Elyse and I'm so grateful that Herman has found her, too. We will happily leave Herman with Elyse again because we know, with certainty, that she'll love and care for him like we do.

Jenna was awesome! She was super easy to communicate with, very responsive, and took great care of our mini poodle for two full weeks. She even trimmed the hair around our pups eyes to see better! We highly recommend her as a sitter for your fur baby!

This was Bucks first experience boarding with Robert, and we will for sure be repeat customers! Right from first request, communication was quick and informative. I chose Robert based on his positive reviews, and I am happy to be adding to them now! Even though it was just an overnight stay I got pictures and updates on how Buck was doing. Buck looked happy in every photo. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Robert again when I need to board Buck!

Our experience with this wonderful family was just that, wonderful! The entire family helped care for Bailey just like she was their own. Lots of snuggles, love & attentive care. Our family had just lost our dear Betsy (our older blue heeler). We had to let her go in January of this year due to illness & age. It was very clear that Bailey was missing her. So when she met some new friends like these great people, she was in heaven. Along with variety of 4 legged friends. We received lots of updates and pics on our vacation and that really put our minds at ease. I don’t think Bailey wanted to leave when we came to pick her up!😁 We feel blessed to have found this family and will definitely be booking again! Thank you ♥️

Alicja was very friendly and took on my fur friend on short notice during a holiday weekend. She updated us with pictures, told us about interactions with other dogs and was very professional. I wish we were closer in distance so doggy daycare would be more feasible. We would use her again!

Jenny and fam were amazing! I felt comfortable with her from the moment we showed up at her house. They loved on Mocha and she looked like she adjusted quickly and was part of the family. The pictures she sent made me smile. Thank you for providing such a loving and safe home! We will be back.

This is his second home. Roxanne makes sure he gets hugs and scratches, love and fun. He is always happy to arrive at their home. Tail wagging. That’s his 5 star rating.

James and Lauryn were clearly affectionate toward Lila and immediately brought her into their family. She was well taken care for and tended to as if she were their own.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Afton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Afton on Rover is $51.06 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 2,303 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Afton. About 92% of Afton 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 MN 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.
