“Kylee was amazing!! We have 2 high energy dogs and she handled them beautifully, lots of attention and activity. She was communicative and very easy to work with. Definitely recommend!!”
“Cheryl was very accommodating to our senior 16 yr old beagle and her special needs (meds and soiling pads) while we were away for 2 nights. She sent us updates and pictures daily which was appreciated. If you want someone who really cares about animals, she is highly recommended by us. We will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Amy was absolutely wonderful to work with! She took amazing care of my babies and sent daily updates. Amazing value for the care that was given. She even brushed and bathed them at the end of their stay!”
“Samantha was so wonderful! She was able to take my two dogs Remy and Piper on short notice I was in town for my son’s wedding and Samantha came to my hotel to meet us and then was able to care for them during all the festivities. She picked them up and also brought them back. She was so loving and kind to them. I just fell in love with her. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Thank you, Samantha, from the bottom of my heart!”
“We highly recommend Sara! It was incredibly easy to schedule with her. Her home was very welcoming. We know our dog was in excellent care during his stay. She was willing to be flexible with extending the dates when our travel plans were delayed. She frequently sent great pictures and updates. We are so thankful that we found Sara! You won’t regret booking with her!”
“Charity did an amazing job keeping my Denver over the holidays. She sent photos everyday and messages when needed. I will definitely book with her again soon. Thank you so much Charity.”
“Kylie is AWESOME!!! She sent great updates and pictures of my dog everyday. Super communication and accommodating for my crazy schedule. It looked like my dog had more fun with Kylie’s pack than she does at home. Definitely will book again.”
“As soon as we were going out of town we knew right away we wanted our Honey girl to stay with Aurora and her sweet family! Aurora is quick to send updates with pictures and quick to respond. When we go pick up honey from her stay, she is so well taken care of and tired out from a good time. ☺️”
“Lilly was fantastic with our dog, Bear! She accepted our last minutes request for boarding and was easy to coordinate with. She was very responsive and provided pictures and updates daily. We will definitely ask her to watch our dog again next time we leave town and highly recommend her to others!”
“Sasha was very patient with our schedule. Early drop off late pick up. I think she treated our dogs like her own! They were very tired when we picked them up, wore them out!”
“Ron was communicative and sent me pics so that I could see how Hachi was doing. He was able to put me at ease with leaving her with him. I plan to reach out again for any future sitting/boarding needs.”
“Great dog lover! I boarded my dog With Alyssa for almost 3 weeks and she was very flexible with me and sent me pictures while I was away. She really cared for my dog and I would definitely choose her again.”

“My dog was very well cared for and came home from his 4 day stay happy and tired! Halie sent pics and videos everyday. It was obvious he was very comfortable and felt right at home. He can be anxious especially when away from home so I am super happy with Halie!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Derby
Cheryl is a very experienced dog sitter and doggy daycare provider, which was a big positive for me. She gives lots of love and attention to the dogs and sends updates and photos while they are staying with her. I think my dog had a good time and felt safe and cared for, and that’s the best thing when you’re out of town.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Derby
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Derby on Rover is $31.08 per night (as of June 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 .
As of June 2026, there are 161 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Derby. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Derby 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 Derby 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 Derby 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 Derby.
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 Derby 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 KS 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.
