Highly recommend Anhi! She’s very caring, sent me regular updates and took good care of our senior dog Bella. She is on a special diet and has many quirks for senior lady that some may not wish to handle. Anhi fit her schedule around our last minute booking, shifted things around to accommodate us and took great care of Bella. We’re so thankful and would use her services again! Highly recommend!

Christine is a very warm, very friendly caring person and it was obvious from the moment she met our two dogs they would be in wonderful hands with her! One of our dogs is very shy, yet she took to Christine very quickly. Their home is perfect in terms of the layout and with a fenced back yard. Christine sent us photos over the 3 day period and is very responsive in her replies. One of our dogs is challenged to navigate stairs however Christine had a gate to prevent her from going up the stairs and potentially hurting herself. We would definitely book Christine again to care for our two dogs!!

About: I have enjoyed taking care of dogs and other pets from a young age. I like getting to know the unique qualities of each animal and enjoy providing an enriching environment full of activities for the active dog, or a quiet, calm space for the pets who take more time to settle in. Caring for, and socializing, puppies over a summer was one of the most memorable pet care times, as a family member was preparing to find homes for a litter. I'm currently off work for the summer and have lots of flexibility to care for your pets for overnight stays, walks, or drop in visits to your home. I have a fenced backyard and a park across the road with lots of walking trails around to accomodate all the needs or your furry friend. We do also have 1 friendly cat in the home.

During a recent stay with Devin, Wendel was very well cared for. Devin was incredibly communicative throughout the stay, sending lots of photos and regular updates, which gave me great peace of mind. It was clear Wendel was having a fantastic time—they went on plenty of walks and hikes, spent lots of time outdoors enjoying the sunshine, and Wendel looked happy and relaxed in every update. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Devin again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.

Susan and her family were really great with Elodie and Butters. I could tell right away that my dogs would love their stay. I really liked how they live all around fields so that the dogs have endless opportunities to run around and play. It felt like I was dropping them off to their own little vacation!

I can’t thank Vicki and her family enough for taking wonderful care of my 1 year old puppy, Daisy, while I was away for the long weekend! From the moment I met them, I felt at ease knowing she would be with such caring people. They provided her with plenty of playtime, walks, attention, love, made a special effort to stick to her routine, while also training! I'm walking a different pup these days. Just amazing bonuses! I also received updates and adorable photos that reassured me she was happy and well-loved. When I picked her up, Daisy was thriving and clearly had a great time! I highly recommend this amazing family to anyone in need of a loving pet sitter. Thank you again for everything!

Rhonda was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of my older, reactive dog and handled everything with skill and kindness. Her experience with dogs really shows — Lollie was comfortable, happy, and even a little sad to see her go! Rhonda stayed at my home and left it spotless — so clean and tidy you wouldn’t have even known anyone had stayed. I have complete peace of mind leaving Lollie in her care and will definitely be inviting her back next time!

We just cannot thank Elizabeth (Jayne) enough for all the love and attention she gave our old boy, Jack while we were away on vacation. Jayne was happy to be in touch with us and regularly sent pics and videos. Jack doesn’t always do well without us, but he settled in quickly and absolutely loved all the walks, love and attention he got at Jayne’s house! Jack is diabetic so it was such a relief knowing that Jayne had lots of experience giving insulin too. We will most definitely be calling Jayne again! Thank you, Jayne!

This was our first time leaving our two Frenchies with Sheilagh and we were very satisfied with the experience. She kept us well informed throughout the 5 days we were away, and sent us pictures of our girls regularly. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others, or to book our girls with her again!

This is our first experience with Logan as a caregiver for our large breed active dog. Over the course of our pet's stay, it was apparent through photos that Logan sent us that our pup not only got lots of playtime with other dogs but was also taken hiking and swimming with Logan's other pup guests. There is no doubt that Logan is a caring, energetic, and dedicated host. We highly recommend him.

I’m so grateful to have found Vanessa to look after my dog, Kenzo, for three days. She was incredibly communicative and kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. Kenzo bonded with her right away you can truly tell she’s loving, patient, and understands dogs. She even went above and beyond by offering pickup and dropoff, which was so helpful. I would absolutely recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter. Kenzo will definitely be visiting her again!

I would happily ask Rhonda to dog sit for me again (and I plan to!). She spent a week with my dog while I was on vacation and not only took great care of him, but my home as well - she went above and beyond. She was extremely communicative and even sent me photos while I was away and it looked like they had a great time. My dog has some trust issues and Rhonda really managed him well. He seemed to really like her and let down his guard. Thank you so much again Rhonda, you were fantastic! We look forward to seeing you again. :)

FAQs for Boarding - Peterborough

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Peterborough on Rover is $54.39 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 93 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Peterborough. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Peterborough 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 favourite hang-out spots in your Peterborough

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.

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 dog, 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 do not have any disqualifying offences.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
