“Super awesome nice family took excellent care of my German Shepherd for six days! Excellent communications and pictures during his stay. I will definitely use their services again.”
“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 was extremely communicative, and my pup loved her and her dog. Her yard is huge, Valkyrie had the run of the whole downstairs and was super happy. Will definitely use her again!”
“The most loving and quality dog care ever! Such a wonderful family and my little pug dog is always happy and so well cared for during his stays. 100% recommend Juliann and her family!”
“John was great at accepting a late day before request. Our other plan had fallen through but he made it work for us. Our 2 dogs came home all tuckered out and I could tell they had a great time. I will definitely reach out to them again in the future when needed! They’ve put a lot into the set up for the dogs and can probably accommodate just about anyone with their space. Thanks again!”
“I was so happy to hear Millie had a great time and everyone had a great time with her!! Such a beautiful home and beautiful people, we found a loving place for Millie to spend time whenever we visit Portland! Thank you to the family again, Millie and I so appreciate the accommodations☺️💕”
“Again, I am so grateful for the care Digby receives from Tara and her husband. I can leave him with peace and confidence. Digby and I both enjoy our vacation! Thanks so much!”
“Murphy ate and has been asleep since 5:20. He had a great time as always, and we'll all have an early bedtime. Thanks for taking care of our pup. We never worry about him, because he's in great hands with you. ❤️❤️”
“Manisha is a wonderful pet sitter. She has great communication with me, and it’s clear, our dog Bean loves staying there. She creates a warm and welcoming home away from home for our Bean. ❤️❤️❤️”
“Jennifer and Eric and their two sons were amazing with my nine month old pup! I was so grateful to have a safe loving home for my dog to be at while I was out of town. Thank you again so much for treating her like your own!”
“Angelique did a great job w Sammy. He got lots of walks, photos of both inside hang time and outdoor adventures. He was always with a human to oversee activities. Photos were keepers! Really well done. Thanks Angelique. We'll visit again in the future.”
“Our little senior doxie, Rocky, spent 2 weeks with Barbara and we couldn’t be more happy with how it went! Barbara gave him lots of love and cuddles, and they spent some time watching Dodger baseball together. Rocky can’t wait for the next time he can spend time with Barbara 😊”
“From taking notes at the meet & greet with loads of great questions, to having a really careful approach to introducing her own little dog to the river guests, I felt really confident that Finn would get great care! Definitely will book again.”
“Diana cared for our 16 yr dog for a week. She is an excellent communicator and professional. Her home has plenty of outdoor space for him to roam free. She sent regular updates and pictures. She also is a groomer. Our pup is afraid of anyone who tries to groom him and hates water. Despite these obstacles she managed to give him a nice trim. I highly recommend Diana and will certainly hire her again!”
“I believe this is Alaska’s 3rd stay with Brittany and I can’t say how well she watches our pup. She keeps her active and snuggles with her. Brittany sends me updates and videos and communicates regularly. She loves dogs and she treats our Alaska as if she was her pup and you can tell — Alaska tends to be super shy around folks and she literally runs in to greet her every time now.”
“We needed a dog sitter last minute and being able to find Matt was such a treat! He would send daily updates and you can tell Olive had the best time with him and his pup crew. She came home happy and tired from all the playing. :) Thank you, Matt for being so good with our Olive!”
“Allison was very accommodating with our dog Yoshi who still has a lot of puppy energy. I could tell that Yoshi had a great stay, he came back home calm and very affectionate. I'll definitely reach out to Allison for dog sitting in the future.”
“Shawna has cared for our dog Zoe twice and both times Zoe came home happy and healthy. Shawna sends us pictures of Zoe while she is there, which really helps so much. Thank you Shawna!! You put our worries at ease.”
“This was Henry’s third stay with Ron and Henry was clearly happy to see him when we dropped him off. As always, when we picked him up he seemed happy and was obviously well cared for. Ron has a great, calm demeanor that makes Henry comfortable immediately. So glad to have a sitter we can trust!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Dayton on Rover is $44.4 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 .

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Dayton sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Dayton landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Dayton 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 favorite hang-out spots in your Dayton.
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 Dayton 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
