“Kaitlyn and John took amazing care of my dog while I was away. This was the first time I left her at someone else’s home for an extended amount of time and it seemed as if my dog fit right in with their family and was given so much love and attention. They sent pictures and updates daily and my dog returned to me happy and healthy. I would love to have them watch my girl again next time I am in need of a pet sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Amanda has been wonderful with Hatcher! He’s stayed several times now and he comes home tuckered out. We love her open communication and frequent photo & video updates while he’s with her. She takes great care of our boy and we appreciate all she does so we can enjoy our time away from him without having to worry if he’s ok. Thank you so much Amanda!”
“They're a reason she has so many 5 stars! Ashley did a great job of taking care of our Tuck Tuck baby and keeping him distracted and entertained. Mavis was the prefect little companion to make sure he didn't miss us too much. We will absolutely use again. Highly recommend!”
“Jessica sent pictures of maple often and told me he was doing just fine over there. Was flexible with picking up time changed and plan on using her again for next time.”
“I left my dog with Sarah for 14 days (longest I've ever been away from him) and she took great care of him- daily updates, took him on adventures, cozy spots all through the house, and I know he was well cared for! Definitely recommend!”
“They were absolutely amazing with our I year old Great Pyrenees. Amazing communication skills and it was great knowing he was safe and happy while we were on vacation. Will definitely be booking again in the future.”
“Jadae was absolutely amazing with my baby Dozr! She watched him for a day and a half and treated him like part of her family. Her two little girls were so sweet with him, and it was clear he felt comfortable, loved, and well cared for the entire time. Jadae kept me updated, made sure all of his needs were met, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I could tell Dozr was happy, safe, and getting plenty of attention and affection. I highly recommend Jadae to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and loving dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Julie was a fantastic communicator and sent lots of great photos and messages everyday. Sunny really seemed to enjoy his time at Julie and Cameron’s house.”
“Lisa and Jay took awesome care of my girl. Looks like the first day or two was a bit rough, but she quickly realized life was continuing as it always had. I really appreciated all the fun pictures during my travels and I was so relieved not having to worry about her. I’m sorry orca ate all of Lily’s food, she may have gained a pound or two as you said?😉 thank you again for taking such amazing care of my little Sheba.”
“Mia was wonderful with our elderly dog, Shiner. She took the time to update us and she kept him happy and healthy! We appreciate how often she took him on walks and journeys around town. It is obvious Mia cares so much for the animals she watches and we feel so grateful to have someone like this near us.”
“Zhenya is amazing. My dog Lucy has been with her twice and Lucy is well taken care of. Lots of pictures shared during the stay as well, which is greatly appreciated.”

“Lindsey was amazing. Made me feel great about leaving my senior baby in her care. Very attentive, caring and helpful. She lived my little guy like he was her own. First time ever left my boy with her and so happy I found her. Totally appreciate her and will definitely barrow her services again.. Mister Billy will miss her. Thanks Lindsey from the bottom of our hearts♥️”
“Bella was a happy pup when we picked her pup. Huy and Jolene were awesome. They were very accommodating to our last minute request. I truly appreciate them.”
“Our dog seemed to enjoy her stay. Great yard for play, and neighborhood for walks. Kaitlin gave great updates during the stay and was flexible with us for drop off and pick up.”
“Sharon and family opened their home to my Pit bull Mastiff Bruce. Sharon made the process very easy for me by having a meet and greet 1st to let him get familiar to the space. We received updates and pics during his stay. Bruce was definitely well cared for. If needed we most definitely will be booking again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Eagle River
My pups have stayed with Amanda a few times now and it has been a wonderful experience every time. When I leave my dogs with Amanda, I know the are going to be well loved and cared for. Amanda is always responsive, sends great pictures, and my dogs always come home happy.
Our pup Greta can be a bit shy, but Ramona kept me updated on her frequently and Greta quickly became comfortable and happy with Ramona’s family! I loved all of the photo and video updates; it gave me such peace of mind while away and our son loved seeing our pup having an adventure of her own! I’d be so happy to have Ramona and her family watch Greta for us again!
Faelyn was awesome! She responded immediately to my short notice request and was available the following day for a meet and greet since we ha had not met at the time and are very particular with anyone we leave our two senior dachshunds with. She took great care of our babies and even sent fun pictures to show how they were doing while we were gone. Would highly recommend her and will definitely take advantage of her services again when and if we go out of town and aren't able to take them with us.
This is our first time on Rover.com, and we were very fortunate to find Chelsea, who was willing to care for Nirobi while we were out of town for a week. We had never left our dog with anyone before, so we were very nervous and reluctant. However, Chelsea communicated with us via text, photos, and videos daily. If there were any concerns, Chelsea did not hesitate to ask to ensure Nirobi was properly cared for. We are so thankful for Chelsea, whom we never met before, and she made us feel so comfortable and at ease knowing that Nirobi was well taken care of. Nirobi was cared for in a very nice, warm, homely environment, not locked up in a cage at a facility with other barking dogs. My family and I highly recommend Chelsea for any pet parents, and we would not hesitate to ask Chelsea for help in the near future. Chelsea, my family, and I thank you for taking such great care of Nirobi.
Adrienne is a perfect match for Eppie since they both like to play in the mountains. Also, her new home in Anchorage is convenient for walks, runs, and swims at local parks. Last but not least, she responds quickly to questions and requests and sends much appreciated photos and videos of her adventures with Eppie.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Eagle River on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 226 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Eagle River. 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.
100% of Eagle River 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 Eagle River 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 Eagle River 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 Eagle River.
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 Eagle River 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 AK 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.
