You are the best!”
“Reese was terrific! She was flexible to meet our scheduling needs including when our flight home was delayed. She kept us up to date about our pups and they were happy and healthy when we got them back. I would definitely recommend Reese and not hesitate to ask her to pet sit for us again in the future!”

“This was our first experience with Rover and we were so happy to have Moose stay with Amanda and her family. We appreciated her flexibility with drop-off and pick-up. Moreover, we could tell Moose was having a good time by the pictures she sent. We did not have to worry about Moose at all while we were away for the weekend. ❤️?”
“Nalleli and her family are awesome! This was the second time they watched our sweet golden doodle and we had no hesitations with them- we know she was safe and well taken care of!

Ellie had so much fun at Kelly and Deyo’s! Kelly does an amazing job at keeping me in the loop throughout the stay with great pictures and updates on how Ellie’s days are going. She also does a great job at understanding my pup’s needs and always takes great care of her. Ellie’s already looking forward to the next stay!
Jessica was fantastic with Bailey! Before his stay, we did a meet and greet and Bailey was quite shy, but Jessica wasn’t worried and by the first evening of his stay, he had completely warmed up to her. I got daily picture updates and messages, and could see for myself he was having a great time. Jessica was easy to coordinate with, timely, and flexible. Definitely hoping to book again for my next trip!
My dog stayed with Amanda for a few days, and from the pictures and updates she sent me every day, I could tell he was receiving the same level of care and attention I would give him myself. She was also very responsive to my messages and followed all of his care instructions closely. My dog was in the middle of a food elimination trial, so I was a little nervous about leaving him with someone else. Thankfully, Amanda and her family took excellent care of him, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. I would absolutely trust Amanda to care for him again!
We can't thank Andi and Tim enough! Their communication was amazing, and we loved getting regular updates and photos showing how happy our dog was. He settled right into their home and routine and he was so well cared for and loved while we were away. Highly recommend!
Merle had a wonderful time staying with John! He got lots of play time with his dog, Samy. Merle came home tired and happy. We got lots of updates while we were gone. It’s so nice to know that your dog is well taken care of and having fun when you have to be away. We look forward to sending Merle to John’s again.
Michael was great with Tiki! They went on many walks together and I could tell she was so relaxed when I picked her up! Michael kept in touch, and his responses were pronto! My flight almost didn’t make it back in time and he was willing to work with me if that had happened and was reassuring me everything was going to be good 👍. Thank you so much Michael, I will be contacting again if I need help with my girl!
Teresa was so kind and caring of our dog!! She is truly an animal whisperer :) he is usually shy towards people at first, but when he first met her he ran right to her! I’m very impressed with the communication and care to learning Archie’s routines and quirks. I will definitely book again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Boise is $40 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $61 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 November 2026, there are 542 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Boise. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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 Boise 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 Boise home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Boise.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Boise. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Boise 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 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 ID 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
