Couldn’t be happier with the live and attention shown to our little Marmalade. As a rescue she is very nervous about new people but these guys went out of their way to make her feel welcome and loved! Made for a stress free vacation!

Adlynn and her family, two doggies and partner, did an outstanding job of caring for my dog. He was very nervous and not used to being away from me. Adlynn was able to gradually get him to feel safe and he really enjoyed the rest of the time there. I would highly recommend!

Loved the experience with Jennifer from start to finish. Love the fact that she only takes on two dogs at once aside from her own and gave me daily updates. My dog was much more relaxed and not stressed like when I used to pick him up at the kennel.

I cannot emphasize enough how wonderful Carol and family are! This was our dogs second visit with Carol and a much longer stay this time around and I’m more than positive he would stay forever if he could :) Such a wonderful, loving and caring family who give everything to make sure Lenny is comfortable and happy! Daily updates that I absolutely loved. Lenny cannot wait for his next visit to Carols a when I mention her name his head pops right up! Thankyou again so much for a great week!

Lea was amazing with my cat. He's normally very shy and hides the whole time, but she convinced him to come out! Her home is very clean and I would absolutely book with her again!

Amy took wonderful care of our dog Oreo while we were away. She kept us updated every day with messages and pictures, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Oreo was safe, well cared for, and clearly received lots of attention and patience during his stay. Amy was very kind, responsive, and easy to communicate with throughout the whole booking. We truly appreciated all of her care and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you again, Amy!

We were worried leaving Dexter with a sitter as he is generally very oriented and has anxiety issues. Lynn put us at ease the first day we were away with pictures that showed Dexter was happy and well taken care of. He got lots of attention and walks .We are happy, and sure Dexter was happy with Lynn and her husband. We would defiantly use Lynn again.

Alfred had a great time at Bradley’s!! He is a lovely safe spot for my son! Alfred is reactive and a lot for some to deal with but Bradley does a great job dealing with Alfred’s energy and needs while communicating with us the whole time! Due to Alfred’s large size (140lbs) and the fact that he’s not neutered it can be challenging to find someone that can handle him and Bradley does an excellent job! Thank you so much for watching our baby!!

We had Shiloh stay with William and his daughter for a few days while we went on a family trip to the US. He was very good about communicating and sending updates and photos. Shiloh seemed to be very happy and comfortable with them. They were very nice and I would definitely contact them again the next time we go away. I would recommend William for anyone looking to make sure their dog is in good hands

Morgan took such great care of Ollie while we were away! He absolutely loved his stay, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. She kept us updated regularly with photos and messages, which we really appreciated and made it so much easier to enjoy our trip without worrying. It was clear that Ollie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout his stay. We would definitely book with Morgan again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter! ❤️

We are very happy with the care and attention Yoda gave to our Matilda. At first, we were worried about whether Matilda would feel comfortable with her caregiver, since she is very attached to us, but as soon as she arrived at Yoda’s home, all our worries disappeared. Matilda just wanted to go inside Yoda’s house, and she looked so happy!! We felt very reassured by Yoda’s energy, as she truly radiates her love for animals. She also kept us 100% updated the whole time. It was a wonderful experience.

Thank you Terry for always taking such great care of our boy Jaxx. You and your family are all so kind and Jaxx loves to come visit. Thank you for keeping in touch and sending me updates on how things are going. I know Jaxx enjoyed all his walks. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend Terry and his family to dog sit your fur babies. Thanks again for everything. See you soon.

Diane was beyond amazing with Marty! I have never had someone take such good care of my dog. She went above and beyond my expectations and I cannot recommend her enough. She is so kind, communicates well and sends photo updates, and is so good with dogs. We will definitely be sending our pup back to her as I don’t think there is a better dog sitter out there than her. Thank you Diane for being so amazing to us and our dog :)

FAQs for Boarding - St. Thomas

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in St. Thomas on Rover is $33.3 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 247 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across St. Thomas. 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 St. Thomas 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 St. Thomas

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. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.

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.
