“Shao took wonderful care of our pup Drogo while we were on vacation, and honestly it seemed like Drogo was on vacation too. She sent us tons of photos and videos throughout, which made it so easy for us to relax and enjoy our trip. Drogo clearly adored her. We’d book Shao again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her!”
“Never seen our dog so comfortable and relaxed while boarding. Renee and Chris did an excellent job taking care of our senior dog Islay, who has serious mobility issues. We highly recommend Renee and Chris and we have already booked Islay for another stay with them for next month.”
“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!”
“Celeste is amazing with our dog Jack! He feels right at home there and she is always updating us with pictures and stories throughout the day. He's loves going over to stay with Celeste!”
“Eunjun was very responsive and flexible when helping watch my dog Toby. She was willing to pick up Toby at a friends house nearby as we were out of town, and also was open to us picking up Toby earlier than scheduled. Such a huge help to have someone responsible and caring watch our senior pup!”
“Yuko took excellent care of my elderly pup who recently had a knee surgery. She sent daily videos and pictures of him having a blast and enjoying the company of other dogs at the park. He can sometimes be timid, but immediately went to Yuko after the meet and greet. I believe he had a wonderful time as he came home utterly exhausted from all the fun! Thank you for giving me such peace of mind, Yuko :)”
“Thank you Michelle for taking Pumpkin over the holidays! Michelle took great care of our 1.5 yr old dog and was very communicative and helpful coordinating logistics. Highly recommend - thank you again!”
“I’m a new user to Rover and these two have been outstanding for my first experience. They kept me updated with photos and videos on how my dog (Charlie) was doing and how much fun he was having interacting with their dogs. 10/10 would highly recommend again.”
“Cynthia and Chi were able to accommodate our last minute request for the long weekend and our pup had a great time as she always does. Thank you both for always taking such great care of Rizzy!”
“Yuyi was great with our senior dog Amara! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates during Amara’s stay with her. I would definitely recommend her and would book with her again.”
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.
“Maggie and Matt were literally a godsend. I had to work out of state for 4 weeks, and my original sitter cancelled last minute. They were amazing with my pup, he had a great stay with them, and we had regular communication and photos. Can not recommend them enough!”
“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!”
“This was Bobo's first visit with Allison, Gordon and Moses' and we are so glad we choose them. We are especially grateful that Allison and her family choose Bobo. I don't think anything could have gone any smoother with this Dogg Vacation. First, Allison is great with short notices. I had to leave the next day. I had messaged Allison if she could meet and greet, Allison had returned my message within the hour. We scheduled that day a great please to meet her and her wonderful dog Moses. Allison and Moses were so kind and sweet. Second, Allison's house is divine for dogs. The house has a fully fenced in front and back yard with 6 foot high fences. The back yard has tons of shade/sun and has lots of grass to run in. The house is located in a lovely neighborhood with little to no traffic, which is great for walks. Third, Allison had sent us tons of pictures of Bobo. Bobo is a 12 year old dog so he likes lots of naps, playing fetch, swimming, walking and other dogs. So we got pictures of Bobo napping inside, napping with other doggie friends, playing with his new friends, fetching, and napping outside. Allison's family was great to Bobo, we think he has had so much fun and would love to spend more time with them. I would definitely recommend Allison. Bobo and I would love to have Allison and her family watch him soon. Allison's house is filled with so much happiness and love.”
About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember and have always loved them. After losing my last best friend, I decided to start fostering, which has given me the opportunity to experience so many different personalities, routines, and needs. Committed to providing the best one-on-one attention while boarding, I pause fostering so your best friend will have my full attention and enjoy a safe, loving, home-like environment. ❤️ I have a flexible work schedule and we will go on at least 2 walks during the day - One in the morning and one in the early evening. I'll always watch them like they are my own and will make sure they don't get into anything unexpected to keep them in good health!
“I think Ellie found a new friend. I was afraid at first that she might not handle Ellies excitement but to my surprise she did it very well. I can Ellie is relaxed with the pictures shes sending me. Ellie even got a christmas present! thanks Sin! so far the best we got! Will definitely be back! Thanks Sin!”
“Regina is a great sitter. My dog Itsy Bitsy just loves her. She keeps me posted on her day/time with her with pictues and messages. I highly recommend her. Thank you Regina.”
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.

Shao has been really great with my dog Kona. She is very communicative and sends a lot of updates throughout the day, which I’m very appreciative of. My dog can anxious in new settings but Shao does a great job calming him down. I’ve booked with her twice already and will continue to book with her in the future.
The best stay! I felt so confident in leaving Bagel at Celina and Mary’s! They took care of my pup so nicely, sent pictures and video every day, and have two wonderful backyards to accommodate high energy dogs like ours. Her son spent time with my dog as well, and got her energy out. We picked her up and they said they could host her for 20 more days 😂👏🏻
Annie & Will are amazing sitters! They truly treated my dog like he was part of the family. I could tell that they really cared and put in a lot of effort to make sure he was well taken care of from daily walks, to cuddles, to engagement and training. Communication was excellent, they let me know exactly what to expect and they constantly sent me videos and pictures of my dog to keep me updated on how he was doing. Highly recommend them and I will definitely seek them out for dog sitting again in the future!
Guidi has been a very thoughtful caregiver. Our dog has diabetes and Guidi has given her an insulin shots twice a day. She’s easy to communicate and has sent me a lot of pictures and videos to show how my dog is doing. Guidi is wonderful and we’d like to work with her again in the near future.
Uriel was responsible, communicative and took great care of Izzy. She can take a while to warm up to new settings but Uriel exhibited kindness and patience with her and she eventually came to trust him and feel comfortable. I would be happy to put Izzy in Uriel's care again.
Renee and Christopher are so loving to our senior dog Jeffrey and they care for him like their own. They keep us informed of Jeffrey’s day. Jeffrey is always content and that makes me happy. When Jeffrey stays with Renee and Christopher I can get away knowing he is in good hands.
We can't thank Victoria enough for taking such amazing care of Mimi while we were away! It was so special knowing Mimi got to spend time with other Cavaliers in such a loving, welcoming environment. Victoria kept us updated with the cutest photos throughout her stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that Mimi was happy, well cared for and having a wonderful time. Thank you again for everything you did!! We truly appreciate you and highly recommend Victoria to anyone looking for an exceptional sitter! ☺️
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!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Brisbane on Rover is $77.7 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 5,779 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.
