“Ida and her dog Nala were very welcoming to our dog Maika who was quickly integrated in the family. It was her first time sleeping anywhere else than home. They played with her, brought her to walks, nature parks and dog parks, cuddled with her and remained attentive to her needs. We loved receiving daily reports with pictures of the day. At the end, our dog was reluctant to get in the car with us, as she had a great time with Ida and Nala. It helped that we first booked Ida for a walk then for a one night sleepover so our dog knew we would come back after our 5 nights trip. We will definitely book Ida again!”
“Kaori was excellent with my dog. She was very communicative, sending me photos and videos, and made my dog feel comfortable and welcome. I will definitely use Kaori again in the future.”
“We are so grateful for the amazing care Sandeep and Priya gave Indy over the holidays. They truly treated him like their own, they were attentive, loving, and so kind. Communication was easy and clear the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Such sweet, trustworthy people, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Dani was wonderful, Peaches felt instantly comfortable with them, communication was super easy & helpful, next time we’re in Victoria, Peaches will be very excited to stay with Dani again!”
“Great experience with Alex and Scarlett. They were very easy to communicate with and our pup was very well cared for. They sent lots of pictures and updates while we were out of town.”
“I am a return client and my dog Charlie always has a good time with them. Good communication and they were able to accommodate a short notice request. Glad to have found a great sitter :)”
“I am so appreciative of Neil — he took such good care of TUKA! She has some special needs (separation stress/prey drive) and Neil was super attentive! She warmed up to him right away and they were best buds instantly. I am very happy to have someone I can trust to take care of her who also sends little updates along the way so I know she’s getting all of her needs met. I will absolutely be booking him again!”
“Amelia and Thomas were great. They gave thorough updates with photos so we knew Zoey was doing well and in great hands. I would highly recommend them and will definitely use them again.”
“This was our first Rover experience and Lauren was fantastic! She has excellent communication and I immediately felt at ease with our initial meet up. She sent us regular updates and pictures and definitely showed our energetic dog a great time with walks, cuddles and lots of ball throwing!! Thank you Lauren!”
“Suzanne is a terrific dog care giver. I really can’t thank her enough for caring for Cooper. Many walks, lots of play and love. She is marvelous. I will make her my go to sitter. ❤️”
“First time boarding our pup Louis and I was very comfortable leaving him in the care of Iris. She is so kind and lovely and my pup loved her. Iris took Louis out for walks everyday and sent me photos of him on their adventures and napping on her lap. Her home is very nice with a beautiful fully secured yard. Have already booked our next visit with Iris.”
“We were very happy to have been able to find Lisa during our trip to Vancouver Island. It is so great to have this service while visiting!! She took great care of our pups!”
“Jason was fantastic watching Echo! He kept me updated throughout the stay and sent some awesome photos from the beach that clearly showed Echo having a great time. It was obvious Echo was well cared for, happy, and getting lots of attention. I’d absolutely trust Jason to watch Echo again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Rachel and her family took great care of my dog, going on long walks, taking her to the beach, and taking her in the car when they went places. They made sure my pup was happy, healthy, and safe.”
“We left our little boy with them for a couple of days, and they did an excellent job. He made a new friend with their dog, looked really happy when we picked him up, and we had good communication throughout. Thank you so much”
“Kirsten and family, including Rory their lab, were amazing hosts to Tucker. They provide a loving family atmosphere with a beautiful yard for the dogs and lots of walks. They even accommodated Tucker sleeping in bed with them which was so sweet. Tucker can have separation anxiety and not eat while we’re away but they made sure he had a quiet spot to eat and he ate! They sent photos every day which helped us relax knowing he was happy and relaxed. The best sign was Tucker was content and tired on the way home which let us know he had a great time and has made a new friend in Rory, the perfect host. We would highly recommend Kirsten and family as hosts for your furry friends.”
“Judging by the happy little girl we picked up Angela and Gabriel should be 6*! Actually our good feelings started when we 'interviewed' them a few months before our 5 day dogcation. I think they both have high EQ and high dog karma. Like others have said they communicate exceptionally well and put your mind at ease. Highly recommended. Ps was glad to hear Gabriel watched his team win his soccer division ❤️”

Christy was wonderful with our dog. It was our first time leaving her with a dogsitter, and we were nervous because she has a lot of puppy energy still (she is one). But Christy was lovely, she sent regular updates and photos, and our dog came home so happy. I would absolutely recommend Christy! She is warm, quick to reply, and professional. Thank you so much!
Stacey and Izzy are awesome! We have 2 Mexican rescue dogs with mobility challenges and some behaviour issues, which require consistent calm yet firm attention and assistance up and down stairs. Stacey and Izzy knew exactly what to do without me having to say anything. Stacey bought a carpet for her house to help my dog walk so that her back legs don’t slide all around. Izzy was generous and shared her bed 😊Through the daily videos and pictures, it was evident that my dogs were comfortable, well cared for and they trusted Stacey. Our older dog, who does not show her belly to anyone, clearly trusted Stacey by freely presenting and enjoying a belly rub. Thank you Stacey and Izzy ❤️
We had a wonderful experience with Suzanne while we were away for 10 days. She sent us plenty of photos and updates, which gave us great peace of mind and let us follow along with all of our dog’s fun adventures. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. We would happily book with her again!
We had a wonderful experience with Michaela! Her familiarity with Frenchies immediately put my mind at ease, and it was clear she understood their unique personalities and needs. Michaela was also incredibly accommodating when we had a less than ideal schedule change and needed an early morning drop-off. We really appreciated her flexibility and kindness. Our dog was well cared for, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!
Lauren’s extensive experience with pet care (including experience working in a vet hospital) set my mind at ease when I needed to find a somewhat last minute sitter for my dog Ollie, who’s in his senior years and has a sensitive little system. She was amazing with Ollie and sent lots of updates and adorable photos during their time together. I would absolutely book with Lauren again!
Alex and his fiancée were amazing with my sweet girl! I received photos and updates throughout her stay, which gave me a peace of mind. It was clear she was well cared for. I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Lola!
We were very happy to find Ryan. He seemed to look forward to having Tilly stay with him and he took great care of her. He always responded right away to our texts, he gave Tilly lots of space to get aquatinted and he kept track of her food and litter box. Ryan seemed to be a calm person and I'm sure Tilly enjoyed her stay with him. We would definitely take her there again. Thanks for taking good care of Tilly Ryan!!
Thank you, Geri, for taking such wonderful care of our Leo! Leo stayed with Geri for three days, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Geri was caring and attentive, provided regular updates, and sent us photos throughout his stay, which gave us great peace of mind. We always knew our dog was in safe and loving hands. We highly recommend Geri to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring companion for their dog. Thank you again for everything!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Victoria on Rover is $53.28 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 385 sitters on Rover offering Pet Boarding across Victoria. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 83% 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.
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 pet, 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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
