It was our first time boarding our dog with Rover and we were so happy with Amanda! We got lots of pictures and he came home happy and worn out.

Margaret took excellent care of our new rescue for a 2 day boarding. She was super easy to communicate with and responded quickly, sent regular updates, pictures, and videos, and clearly goes the extra mile to make sure your dog is well cared for. We will 100% be booking with her in the future for any dog sitting needs!

This was my first time using Rover, and I don’t think I’ll use any other sitter than Alicia! She had fantastic communication while booking the stay and throughout my dog’s stay, sending regular text and photo updates. She went above and beyond taking care of my pup, took him on little adventures and walked him more than was asked (which was amazing!) My dog has anxiety issues and she was very understanding and made him feel right at home, I could tell from the photo updates that he was having a blast once he settled in! We had cancelled flights on our return home and even then she was still very understanding and graciously let our dog stay a little longer than was planned. 10/10 I highly recommend Alicia for your pet sitting needs!

Our dog stayed with Kaycee and her family for 10 days, and we had a wonderful experience. She sent me photos every day, and they took him for walks even though they have a fenced backyard. The kids in the family gave Swift lots of attention, and he played with their family dog. Very sweet family — I highly recommend them for dog boarding.

Rebecca was an amazing Rover! Cooper loved his stay with Rebecca, she was extremely responsive and sent pics throughout his stay. She was super flexible taking my request on only 4 hours notice, and she allowed us to extend our stay on short notice as well. We would definitely recommend Rebecca to anyone that needed a top quality Rover!

We left our dog Toffee with Jenny and her family for 5 days while we attended a work conference, and we could not have asked for a better experience! This was our first time using Rover and leaving Toffee with someone we didn’t know, so we were definitely nervous at first. Jenny immediately made us feel comfortable with constant updates, pictures, and videos throughout the entire stay. Toffee had the absolute best time running around in her huge backyard, playing with her kids and her two dogs, and getting so much love and attention. It truly felt like he was treated as part of their family. You can tell Jenny genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. We were able to fully enjoy our trip knowing Toffee was happy, safe, and so well cared for. We are beyond grateful and will absolutely be booking with Jenny and her lovely family again in the future. Highly recommend!

About: Dogs are my favorite people - I attract dogs wherever I go. I have owned two dogs in my adult life-English Bulldog and Goldendoodle. Currently, I have a 10 year old goldendoodle. She loves everyone. I am a teacher and have off during the summer. I enjoy hiking, camping, biking, running, reading, gardening, and cooking. I’m currently on summer break, so my days are very flexible. During the school year, I am available before 7am or after 4pm. I have a very friendly goldendoodle. I have a big yard. I am willing to provide lots of love, playtime, and walks for your dog. I can be active with your pet or sit with them and love them up. Whatever you need, I can provide.

Lorelei is wonderful! She took care of our young, energetic dog (Star) for a full 10 days during a cold part of winter, and gave Star an active and relaxing experience. In talking with Lorelei at our brief meeting before Star's boarding, she demonstrated a great deal of knowledge about caring for dogs/pets. She asked us questions about our routines, and understood our preferences. She provided a welcoming and warm environment and made sure that Star got lots of care and attention, and we knew that Star was safe and having fun. Star loved being in a space with other dogs, especially Lorelei's sweet pup! Lorelei sent photos and videos every day, and was very responsive throughout our time away letting us know how things were going. We are more than satisfied with the care she offered! Thank you Lorelei!

Cleda was an awesome temporary mom to Humphrey. This was our first time using Rover and I was a little nervous, but Cleda was so quick to respond, sent pictures of Humphrey throughout his visit, and he was clearly comfortable and happy in her care. I would trust Humphrey with her again in a heartbeat and recommend her to any pup owner.

Great communication for booking, through their stay, and when we needed to adjust our pick up time. We received pictures of our ladies several times, which brightened our day and helped us feel at ease when we were away. They were very attentive to the different food and medication needs our ladies have. We will definitely use them again for future boarding.

We call Paula’s our dogs “retreat.” He loves it there and always seems so calm when we drop him off. She cares for your pet like her own and I’m so thankful our dog can stay with her.

This was our first boarding experience with Morgan and she was awesome. Our dog is a bit anxious and slow to warm up to people. It was clear from the start that Morgan understands dogs and can match their energy. She took great care of our Rosie and sent regular updates. It was great to enjoy our vacation without worrying about the dog. We also had some flight issues on the way home and Morgan was flexible and helpful.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Deforest

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Deforest on Rover is $49.95 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 .

There are 470 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Deforest. About 92% of Deforest sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

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.

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 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 WI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
