“Andrea was amazing! We have a senior dog who can be difficult with new people and her deteriorating eyesight and hearing can make leaving her with a new person very stressful for us and her. Andrea had a very gentle and calm approach with our dog which allowed her space to feel comfortable. Her updates gave us peace of mind and when we picked her up she seemed at home in her house. It was so comforting for us to know Riley was well taken care of. We would highly recommend Andrea as she clearly has a great energy and connection with dogs putting them at ease.”

“Sandeep and his wife were lovely with our Boston Terrier, Henlee. They were respectful and accommodating for all my care guidelines which could be perceived as a little over the top for some, but important to me. He sent at least one update and picture/video each day which was really appreciated. They even bought him a new toy to take home which he loves. I’d definitely recommend Sandeep and will certainly book Henlee in with him next time we travel!”
“Karheek and their family took wonderful care of our Border Collie, Sophie. They gave her lots of attention and exercise, and we felt completely comfortable knowing she was so well cared for while we were away. We would highly recommend them to any dog owner, and will certainly call on them again when needed. Sophie’s new extended family in Victoria.”
“Katy and Rachelle are warm, welcoming, and professional dog-sitters. Our Daisy stayed with them and their dog Tater for a week over Christmas and she had the best time. They treated her like part of their family and sent lots of happy puppy updates throughout the week. We would hire them again and recommend them to anyone!”
About: I have had pets of all kinds my whole life from hamsters to turtles to cats and my father later in life adopted dogs for me to care for when returning home. I started taking care of dogs when I was travelling for work in the USA through Trusted Housesitters with my partner. After having a child we have had fish, enjoy taking our friends' dogs for morning walks and cat-boarding for colleagues at work. I love living in Victoria and am lucky to live in a nice neighbourhood with big parks and nice walks. Walking is my favourite exercise and walking with company is the best! I am going to use the dog walking extra money to fundraise for my daughter's trip to DisneyLand this February 2027. I want to walk dogs in the morning before work and school for exercise and enjoy the early hours. I am also raising money to go on a trip to Disney Land. Having used Trusted Housesitters, I have stayed in other people's houses to care for their pets for up to a month. I also used to run an Airbnb with my partner so we could travel and have experience cleaning and taking care of the home with pets. I keep a clean and tidy home with my daughter, mostly to keep track of everything haha 😂 I have split level apartment at the top two floors of a house with open spaces and 2 bathrooms. I have a gated front patio and a giant dog park across the street. Lots of places to walk and enjoy the great weather of Victoria.
“Rachel is absolutely amazing! She took care of our dogs in her home for an entire week while we were out of the country, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we dropped them off, we knew they were in excellent hands. Rachel kept us updated daily with messages and photos, showing how much fun the dogs were having and how well they were being cared for. It was clear they felt right at home, and Rachel treated them like part of her own family. We’re so grateful for Rachel’s exceptional care and attention to detail. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter. She truly went above and beyond!”
“Such a wondering experience . Natalie saved us after our regular gal wasn’t able to take our dog last min. She provided regular updates and was super responsive. Our old guy was well taken care of and will definitely send him back to her next time.”
“Ella had a fun time with Criofan. She was happy to leave me and play with the other dogs on the property and she was happy at pick up time. Criofan was easy to deal with. She responded to texts promptly and eagerly set up a meet and greet time beforehand. She sent me photos to show what Ella was doing while under her care. If your dog likes lots of space and other dogs to play with then this could be a place for them!”
“Viktoriia was so good, she took care of my dog with love! She gave him showers and took him on hikes. Kept me posted and sent photos of my dog. I will definitely love to use her again!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Victoria is $55
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Victoria
Marlisa has been an incredible caregiver for our dog. Marlisa is very calm, which is perfect for nervous/shy dogs. She’s excellent about being sensitive to dog’s preferences, habits, and quirks. Our dog loves going to visit. Marlisa has taken care of our dog about five times now.
Callie had a wonderful stay at this ‘home away from home’. She was welcomed into the family and very well taken care of. It seems like she is missing her new friends already. Kirsten was an excellent communicator and kept us updated on Callie’s progress. Highly recommended!
Viktoriia was taking such wonderful care of Alfie! We’re truly grateful for all the love, patience, and attention you’ve given her. Knowing that you have a veterinary background gives us so much extra peace of mind. It means so much to us knowing Alfie is in such good hands while we’re away. Thank you for treating her like your own and making sure she feels safe, happy, and loved. We really appreciate everything you do for her! 🥰🐾❤️
Lilia is a wonderful sitter! She was able to socialize and adapt with my dog Ima quickly. She sends frequent updates about their adventures and Ima seemed to have had a blast staying over her home. Recommended to others 100%!! Will be sure to book with her again in the future.
We were very pleased to have Terry look after our dog .She was a great communicator and provided us with photos every day. It was very apparent that she makes a great connection with the dogs she looks after. I would not hesitate to recommend her to others who are looking for a lovely place to board your dog.
Iris is caring and capable, and has a large fenced yard and a friendly golden retriever that my dog got along very well with (apparently they played a lot!). She is home with them most of the time and takes them out for 2 walks a day. It was reassuring to know Ellie was well taken care of.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Victoria is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $75 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
sitters in Victoria have an average of 17 years of experience. Each sitter has their own unique experience and skill sets for different types of pets. You can find details of each sitter’s potential certifications and abilities, such as pet first-aid or senior pet experience, listed on their profile. Look at other pet parent reviews and repeat pet parent booking rates for an idea of their pet care exp erience.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 89% 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
You and your Victoria 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.
