“Sean is a wonderful sitter! He took Ultra on multiple adventures during her overnight stay, and she came back happy (and tired from so much fun.) I really appreciated the photo updates, which reassured us that she was getting amazing care. I'll definitely be looking for an opportunity to rebook soon!”
“Francesca was wonderful! It was evident that our pup Oslo loved her. She sent great updates and pictures throughout the stay which we really appreciated. We already can’t wait to use her again!”
“Sophia took excellent care of my dog. Perhaps the best sign is when I picked her up, she went back in the house and tried to stay with Sophia instead of come home with me. She even gave Stella a bath before pick up without my asking.”
“My dog had a great time with Madeline. Madeline took her for lots of walks, and she handled my dog's anxiety/reactivity wonderfully. Will definitely be booking her again!”
“Georgia took great care of Zia! She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. She handled Zia's special diet and medications with ease and was very attentive to all her needs. Highly recommend!”
“Della was fantastic with my dog. She made sure he was comfortable with the other people and pets in the house and walked me through what his stay would look like. She sent plenty of pictures and updates through his stay.”
“Maggie was an outstanding dogsitter for Sally! She was incredibly caring, attentive, and kept me updated the entire time. It was clear Sally had a great time with her, and I felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. Highly recommend Maggie for anyone looking for a reliable and responsive sitter!”
“Addison was so accommodating, easy to communicate with and sweet with my dog! She sent updates and pictures, and took great care of her. Highly recommend and hope to book with her again in the future :)”
“Elise was just incredible! She took amazing care of my pup and I will absolutely be returning in the future. I especially appreciated the flexibility and understanding for my extenuating circumstances ❤️. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
“We are grateful for the love and care Alexandra & Jeff plus kids gave to Arley during a long weekend stay. It's always nice to have peace of mind when traveling and we had that with them. Arley was well cared for and happy to see us -- and it was great to see a few pics of Arley doing well in their home. We will book again in the future.”
“Lisa did an absolutely amazing job of caring for my baby pup! She took him on many walks, sent pictures, and always kept me updated on how the days were going. I highly recommend her! :)”
About: I’ve been involved with animals since I was a kid and have a few different dogs since I was born. I also have a cat! I am able to care for senior dogs and puppies as I’ve had them both living in my house, and am able to administer medication or follow any special feeding/medical schedule that your pet needs! I love caring for animals of all shape and size—I know how important and special each of your pets are. I am available to walk or let out at any time throughout the day as I am finished with school. I am happy to bring your dog to a dog park in my car or to just play with them in your backyard. I’m here to make your pet’s day better and yours easier! I can easily get a dog into a crate or car if needed and I am very good with introducing myself/caring for shy, skiddish animals.
“Sarah takes such good care of our high energy Border Collie, Nori! Daily updates and check ins let us know she’s doing well :) This is our second time booking with Sarah and we are super happy!”
“Emily was absolutely amazing with Zola! I got a lot of photo updates and reassurance that she was well taken care of while I was away! I will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her. Zola came home in a very good mood.”
“Delaney was very responsive in communicating with me. She answered my texts right away. She was also very caring and kind to my dog. He spent the night and all went well. I highly recommend boarding your dog with her!”
“Curtis was great, we had a prebook meet up with our dogs to make sure it was a fit, and M and M were very sweet to our little puppy. During the stay Curtis sent photos and little report cards each day and we knew Broer was loving being in a pack and adventuring about town! He had plenty of walks and I felt very comfortable he was in good hands, and a little worried he might not want to come home with us!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Boulder is $50
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Boulder
Sean and Kim are wonderfully warm towards dogs, and we felt very comfortable leaving our precious dog with them. It is the best “home away from home” we could hope for. Cora was well exercised and quite content with her stay, and “forgave us” the sin of leaving her behind when we traveled much easier than usual. Will book again, big thanks to both of you!
Della gave our dog the most wonderful care! Our senior dog was nervous when he saw us packing for a two-week trip. Della worked magic with him. He had a great time with the other dogs and seemed comfortable in the home with Della and her daughter. We look forward to having our dog stay with Della again!
Kaitlyn was an amazing help! She went above and beyond to ask questions and scheduled a little meet and greet with Margo ahead of her stay. She also was very communicative and responsive with updates and jumped quickly to scoop up additional needed items (forgotten by us in our hurry to leave for a trip!) Very thankful for her care and assistance.
Marlow was an absolute gem. I’m so glad I found her and that Oslo got to have such a grand adventure while I was on vacation. She sent me all sorts of great photos the whole time we were gone. They went on walks, had snuggles, went to the river and played in the water! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience for my pup. He’s a big boy (110 lb) and has an attitude sometimes but Marlow had no trouble handling him and giving him the kind of love and attention he craves. I will definitely be asking her to watch Oslo next time we leave town!! Thank you so much Marlow!
These two were the BEST! It was my first time leaving my puppy alone overnight and she is a hyper golden! They took such good care of her, she seemed to be seriously having the best time there based on all the wonderful photos and check-ins I got! When I picked her up she slept the whole day! (Takes a lot for this to happen). Will definitely be my first spot when I need to board again!
Maddy took excellent care of our dog Addie! She was very communicative and made us feel very comfortable with leaving Addie with her. She was happy to accommodate our situation and the medications and special care that Addie needed. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!! 😊
Chelsea was amazing! We recently lost our older dog, so my dog has been feeling a bit lonely. Chelsea had an older dog- Fergus who was so sweet and played with Little Bear so well. She sent pictures and checked in consistently and made me feel really good. Anytime I’m in the Boulder area, I will check to see if she is available!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Boulder
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Boulder on Rover is $53.5 per night (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of June 2026, there are 5,204 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Boulder. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Boulder sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Boulder landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Boulder 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 Boulder.
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 Boulder 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 CO 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.
