“Our dogs were given so much love over the last week. One of our pups had an upset tummy in the middle of the week and she kept us updated. She sent us pictures and I'm so thankful that I know they got lots of attention. We already another trip booked using them and a 3rd will be booked soon. Thanks for loving on my babies ❤️ Amy P.”

“This was our first time leaving our dog but we couldn’t have left him in better hands. Bethany took great care of our Mac and was so accommodating. We had a travel delay that meant she would have to keep him over the New Year Holiday and she was so understanding. She kept us updated all week and quickly responded to messages. If we need a sitter again we will definitely check with Bethani.”

“Crystal was so good and patient with my girl Trudy. Trudy has seizures and can apparently have some separation anxiety where she whines and howls. Crystal was so good with her and took excellent care of her. This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous to leave her with someone. Due to her medications and seizures. Crystal was great and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!”

“We are so grateful to have found Echo to watch our dog while we were out of town! Echo kept us updated on all the fun our dog was having, with pictures and text messages. Echo and her family played with our dog, took her for walks and spent time with her. The communication between us was perfect and she was so flexible with scheduling. And so friendly too! I highly recommend her.”

Brianna also kept me updated the entire time. Reliable and attentive. I’ll book again with them.”

“Pam was incredible! We had a different sitter booked and they cancelled on the last minute so we needed to secure someone to care for our wild dog very quickly. From the first interaction, Pam was responsive, confident, and calm. She provided regular updates, asked questions when needed, and I was confident Benji was in good hands.”

“We cannot say enough about Katelyn and how she took such excellent care of our Charlie. She treated him like he was her own baby. She sent us so many pictures so we felt great while we were away. I cannot thank her enough! Charlie definitely fell in love with her. When we came today to get him, he seemed sad to leave her. Charlie obviously had a wonderful time! We will never trust anyone to care for Charlie except Katelyn in the future. And I know Charlie will be looking forward to being with her too!! If you want to feel comfortable leaving your baby with someone while you are away I highly recommend Katelyn. She is the real deal!!! Kathleen Calabrese”

About: I have experience with pets of all ages, including energetic puppies who need consistency, basic training reinforcement, and lots of playtime, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication, or extra care and comfort. I’m very attentive to routines and will stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule to help reduce stress. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I love being outside and spending time with animals. I enjoy going on walks, playing outside, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise throughout the day. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific care instructions. I also make sure pets feel safe and relaxed by giving them lots of love, supervision, and a calm environment. I enjoy being outside, so walks and outdoor play are something I really enjoy doing with dogs.

“Marluce and her family were great. You can tell they love animals. Bella was in good hands. She took Bella for walks and threw the ball with her in their fenced backyard. Bella got along fine with their dog Cassie and we got lots of pics. We will definitely have Bella stay with her again, in fact she is staying with her again this week! Thanks Marluce and family!”

Emma did a wonderful job while we were on vacation watching our son graduate from basic training. She always reached out to me if she had any questions or concerns. Got a lot of pictures and updates which made this dog mom at ease. Emma will also be coming to the house for drop ins while I’m at work. I would 100% recommend her for any of her services.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Dayton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Dayton on Rover is $43 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $56 per night. 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.

As of October 2026, there are 197 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Dayton. 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.

87% of sitters in Dayton 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 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 TN 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.
