“Christina and her pack are wonderful! A lovely family and friendly Dogs. You can see they are totally dedicated to their pets and visiting pets. Nigel was well cared for and I did not worry about him a bit. I highly recommend them and hope to use them again in the future.”

“Lyssette and family took great care of Gracie while we were away. She checked in with pictures and videos to keep us aware of how things were going. Looking forward future stays w Lyssette!”

“If we could give Manisha higher than a 5, we absolutely would. She was terrific at communicating before and during our dog’s stay, with plenty of updates. She was also so receptive to all of his needs and often went the extra mile to make sure he was comfortable. We are not apart from our dog Simba often so we expected he may be a little nervous but Manisha’s entire family (including her sweet dog Bruno!) gave him so much love and attention that he was sad to leave. We have another trip upcoming soon and have total peace of mind knowing he will be staying with her again.”

“Just picked up Red, my mini Aussie (3 yrs old), he is EXHAUSTED!! I couldn't be happier!! It's like living at the dog park for 7 days! I was very reluctant to leave him in a home with a lot of dogs but Matt introduced them all to him, one at a time. I got pictures and messages regarding how he was doing during the week. Highly recommend Matt and I'll be using his service again this summer.”

“Suzanne took amazing care of Duke during a recent long weekend getaway. She sent lots of pictures and spoiled him with love and fun. I can’t recommend her enough. We will definitely be re-booking with her in the future.”

“Josh and Leah (and Charlotte and Max) took care of our dog Max for two weeks. They sent photos every day were easily communicative giving us updates. They took the dogs on daily long walks. Our pup came home happy and tired! We would absolutely trust them again and hope to book again with them.”

“Kristen was a god send. Our little guy can be a bit nervous. Kristen was a perfect fit for our pup. Her home is warm and inviting. Her two dogs are well cared for. She kept me updated with pictures throughout our trip. I’m so grateful we found her so we can travel with confidence in our dogs care. We will definitely be using her in the future to watch our pup.”

“Daniel was a knight in shining armor for our family. Our original sitter had a family emergency and we had a flight to catch. Daniel was accommodating and made my pup feel at home with lots of walks and belly rubs. Daniel and his family will definitely be our go to for pet sitting!”

“Our first time having Jo Lynn and David sit for Griffin and couldn't be happier! From the start, they were incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with. You could tell right away how much they genuinely care about the dogs they look after — kind, caring, and thoughtful in every interaction. They sent us photos almost every day, which we loved getting to see. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away knowing our dog was in such good hands. We'll definitely be booking Jo Lynn again and highly recommend them!”


“Susie was so comforting to have as our first Rover experience. She treats her canine guests like family. Didn’t have any worries during our time away. Thanks to Susie!”


“Dottie's care for Oatmeal was top notch!!. She went above and beyond, paying close attention to Oatmeal's needs, providing personalized touches, and keeping us updated. Her passion and professionalism make her an outstanding pet caregiver. She knows and understands various breed tendencies which is extremely helpful. We highly recommend her!”

“Sadie was delighted to see me! Jessica had texted me about her behavior and preferences throughout her stay. Jessica said Sadie had lots of pep. I looked forward to pictures of my little puffy fluff everyday. She happily jumped and licked on me at the door! Gosh I am so glad she was so well taken care with such thoughtful consideration! Totally trust Jessica from Rover.com to have made the best choices for Sadie during the whole 10 days!”

“I had a wonderful experience and will recommend Megan to everyone! Kitty said she had a blast and can't wait for me to go on another vacation. If you need a reliable sitter, look no further!”

“Nicole was so awesome at sharing her experiences with the puppies! We got updates all day long of park fun, walking, and puppy snuggling. It made our trip so enjoyable!”

“Lorri did a wonderful job with Dunkin’s stay. Very reliable, responsive, and great with pets. Dunkin came home happy. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a great sitter.”

“Jessica took such great care of PB while we were away! I can tell she kept him busy and active by how sleepy he’s been since coming home. He’s one happy guy, and it’s clear he had a great time with her!”

“Gage was absolutely great to work with. He took great care of our Boston Terrier Sasha. We received timely updates about Sasha every single day. This was our first time on Rover and we lucked out with Gage. Such a kind and caring person. Sasha came back happy, very playful and in a great mood. I highly recommend Gage and his pet-sitting services.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,580 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Carlton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Carlton can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Carlton home-away-from-home, 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 Carlton.
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 Carlton 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 , 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 .
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 OR 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.
