“Jennifer M was awesome with my dogs Zoe. Zoe was very comfortable in Jennifer’s home and around her family. Zoe ate well at Jennifer‘s home. When it was time for Zoe to go, she whimpered to go back as we drove away. That just showed me that Zoe was extremely comfortable and well loved while she stayed with Jennifer and her family for more than a day. Jennifer did a fantastic job of sending me pictures and communicating about how Zoe was doing throughout the day. I am very grateful to Jennifer and her family for treating Zoe like one of their own. I have already booked another stay with Jennifer and her family for Zoe”

“I can’t say enough good things! My boy Koda was so well taken care of! He was happy, calm, and clearly cared for. Jessica sent updates and cute photos while I was away, which really put my mind at ease. This was our first time having someone we did not know watch him, which made both Koda and me anxious. However, Jessica was wonderful with us both! He especially loved her fenced-in yard and kiddo! I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter who truly loves animals. Thank you again!”
“Anna and Hooch have met their bonus mama for sure! We are so pleased with the care they received from Sacha and her furry babies. Sacha was professional, kind, nurturing and patient with us as this was our first Rover.com experience. We ran into a timing issue on our return home and she didn’t hesitate to work with us on a last minute change in plans. We’ve been singing her praises all weekend long and she will be the only person in mind next time we go out of town! ????”

I have no children, just me and my wife and I’m looking forward to accommodating to anyone in need ! Side note: I get off typically at 3pm on Fridays so I’m available after that, any long weekends I have off will also be updated on my schedule !

“I adopted my dog last year and have never been away from her… so understandably, I was nervous about finding someone who would care for my dog. Jill was absolutely fantastic ! She kept me updated with calls, notes, pictures, and videos (all so very calming and reassuring to this dog momma) and I could just tell my dog was in great hands and being well-cared and loved!! I would definitely book with Jill again and plan to do so soon! Highly recommend !”

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Dover is $31 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $36 per night.

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.
96% of sitters in Dover 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 Dover 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 Dover.
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 Dover 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.

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.

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.
