“Renee and Chris are very trusted sister. Because my dolls medical condition, I had to be picky to find new sitter not to have multiple other dogs. They only accepted my dogs and no other dogs. Renee made sure to provide the medication and she is very familiar with. They sent us a lot of pictures and video and we were very happy to know how our dogs were doing every day. Renee and Chris are highly recommended and I will ask their availability when we need our dog sitter next time for sure.”
About: All dogs and cats love me whenever I visit my friends. I really enjoy the moment with them and with the ability to distinguish what they need at the first moment. I can be talking care of the pets after my full time job and also weekends. No matter winter or summer. Christmas is also ok. I am living in peninsula California and would love to take care of the pets in clients home when they need me. I can take care of the cats at home too.
“Marie was amazing with Kilo! She sent frequent photo updates and made me feel totally at ease while I was away. It was clear she truly cared for him, and Kilo absolutely loved her. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend!”
“Shao Er watched our dog for a week and we couldn’t be more happy. We were provided with daily pictures and videos of our dog. Our dog appears to be healthy and happy staying with Shao Er. We will not hesitate to book with her again!”
“This was the second time we’ve booked Gordon and Allison. They and their kids once again took really great care of our Tofu. We appreciated the cute daily photo and update. We’ll be sure to book them again the next time we travel!”
“Uriel was responsive, flexible, and friendly. He sent us lots of pictures and videos of our pup having fun while in his care. We felt at ease with how quickly he would respond to questions and how often he gave us updates. We were so happy to see how content and healthy our pup was after staying with Uriel. Would definitely book again!”
About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life- including three Central Asian Shepherds, a Caucasian Shepherd, and a small Toy Terrier. I don’t currently have a dog, so I truly enjoy spending time with pets and giving them attention and care. Pet care has always been an important part of my daily routine. Whether it's feeding, walking, or playing with my own pets, or pet-sitting for friends and family, I make sure to prioritize the needs of the animals in my care. I understand the importance of consistent attention and effort in maintaining a happy and healthy pet, and am committed to providing that care. If providing pet-sitting services in the client's home, I ensure the pets have adequate food, water, and exercise, and maintain a clean and safe environment. If providing dog-walking services, I take the dogs on a safe and enjoyable walk while adhering to any specific instructions provided by the owner. Regardless of the service, I always prioritize the well-being and comfort of the pets in my care.
“Wonderful people! Super detail oriented on how to care for my fur baby Pico! They kept us updated everyday on how he was doing and I completely trust them. We will be in touch again for when we need a dog sitter again!”
“Vanda and her family did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of our cat and dog. We had an issue while traveling so the pets needed to be moved and Vanda and her family took them in as if they were their own. We could tell through photo updates that the pets were incredibly cared for at home with the family and they came home happy and social which was a great sign. Vanda even bought the cat and dog some extra toys to play with!”
“Cynthia and her family were great dog sitters. I got constant updates and videos/pictures. My dog looked so happy on the walks and being able to spend time outside in their spacious backyard. I felt so comfortable leaving her there for a long weekend and will definitely book with Cynthia again.”
“Sin is a great sitter! Extremely communicative and checks in when needed. My pup can be on the skittish side yet she’s comfortable in Sin’s care. Definitely recommend Sin!”
About: I’ve been around dogs pretty much my whole life, whether it was my standard poodle as a young kid, my mini poodle as a teenager or, more recently, the senior dogs I’ve fostered or adopted from Muttville. Dogs have always been in good hands with me. Right now my wife and I have two dachshund chihuahua mixes we adopted at five and six. Our home is a dog home. They’re on the couch, on the bed and even under the covers (if they want to burrow). They’re in the mix and they’re loved. If your dog has medications, I’ve got it. If they have special needs or they’re older and need a slower pace, I have ample experience with that. I’m currently dedicating my time to taking care of pups, so your pup will have my undivided attention throughout the days and evenings. The max amount of time I’d leave your dog alone would be for four hours. I have two dogs of my own that I would keep separate from your dog to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort. I have a fully fenced backyard with a couple of stairs. I also have pet stairs inside to help senior dogs get up on to the couch and bed
“We received daily videos. It was a rainy weekend, so they couldn’t get out much. My dog was happy in the videos and it seemed like she didn’t want to go home when we picked her up. Since this was our first time using this sitter, we met up beforehand.”
“David was great! He clearly cared for dog and our needs to make us comfortable. His home was cozy and quiet which for our dog who is anxious was a blessing to keeping her happy and settled. Our dog is on medication and David took care of this for us with no concerns or issues. We also happened to have a very hectic schedule, David was flexible and easy to coordinate with which really made the process so much easier! Thanks, David!”
“Meg was an amazing sitter. She sent photos and messages throughout our trip that Val was happy and safe. As first time users, we will definitely be calling on her more often. I have no doubt Val can’t wait for her next stay.”
“We’ve had William & his partner watch our golden retriever, Penny, several times. They’re great! Lots of walks and photos, great communication. Will continue to return to William for our dog sitting needs!”
“Christina watched my Ellie for a long weekend and was so professional, thoughtful, and was able to be flexible with a last minute change. Would highly recommend Christina to any pet parent looking for a considerate and capable pet sitter!”
“Julley was absolutely amazing! She was super communicative from the get-go and she pays attention to details. Marvel is usually picky about who she likes but she formed a connection with Julley instantly. Julley went the extra mile to take care of Marvel and I felt so comfortable having my fur baby in her hands. Julley was very responsive with her messages and pictures. She is a very capable sitter and was able to follow all my care instructions. We definitely look forward to booking with Julley again!”

Yuyi was very communicative and gave me great updates on Ginger every day. I appreciated her being willing to do a meet and greet in advance and her showing me where Ginger would be walked every day. Yuyi was very flexible with pickup and drop off time. Would definitely recommend!
Sumera was amazing. Really great dog instincts and very experienced with rescue dogs. She treated our rescue dog Kewpie like her own and even provided training tips when we asked for them (smaller crate, high reward treats, ways to reduce the resource guarding, etc) ! The daily pics and videos with descriptive updates helped us stay in touch and feel comfortable during our travels. Would have her watch kewpie again!
William did a great job watching Ziggy and Huxley for a few days! He sent me regular updates and cute videos and photos. He was also very responsive whenever I messaged him. It was really nice to be able to relax and know my dogs were being well taken care of. They also had a great time playing with William’s sweet Pomski. I would definitely rebook with William! Responsive, friendly and well versed in dog care.
Guidi was fantastic to work with! She was highly communicative throughout Gigi’s stay and regularly sent photos and videos, which gave me great peace of mind. Gigi is very reactive to other dogs, and Guidi was incredibly understanding and adaptable to her specific needs. She took the necessary precautions to ensure a safe and positive experience for both herself and Gigi, which I truly appreciated. Guidi was a joy to work with, and I would absolutely reach out to her again to care for Gigi in the future. Thank you, Guidi!
Super thankful for Durva’s help, last minute! The initial meet & greet was super easy to set up, and the care that our dog, Cali, received was wonderful. Durva provided healthy alternatives when separation anxiety prevented Cali from eating her typical foods. We received great communication and photos throughout Cali’s stay, which allowed us to vacation with the peace of mind that our pup was well-taken care of. Would definitely book again!
Nothing but rave reviews for Rachel and Ryan. They took exceptional care of my rescue tripod. Immediately, I could tell that Rachel and Ryan had a genuine love of animals and lots of dog ownership knowledge. Despite having an urgent last-minute flight home, I felt completely reassured boarding my sometimes nervous/anxious dog with them. They shared so many wonderful updates and photos during Joon’s stay. With other Rovers, I’m often staring at my phone anxious for updates but I never worried with Rachel and Ryan. Charlie and Bonnie were wonderful companions for my pup, Joon, who does not have a lot of other doggy friends to play with! Everyone made Joon feel right at home. Cannot recommend boarding with Rachel, Ryan, Bonnie and Charlie enough!
I was recommended Josefina as a knowledgeable and experienced dog sitter, and after meeting her, I could see right away how much she and her family truly love animals. It is such a relief to be able to leave Oscar knowing he is in such capable and caring hands. He received so much love and attention that it was like his own little vacation! I can definitely recommend Josefina to anyone looking for a great sitter.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Brisbane
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Brisbane on Rover is $75.58 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 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 July 2026, there are 5,811 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Brisbane. 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.
92% of Brisbane 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 Brisbane 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 Brisbane 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 Brisbane.
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 Brisbane 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 CA 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.
