“I will use Taylee for boarding again in the future. She was responsive, sent updates and pictures, and made me feel that our dog was well taken care of and was in a place where she could feel comfortable and at home.”
“Our Koda girl was left in the best hands possible. I’m so glad we chose Marsha! We loved that she gave us plenty of updates and made it super easy to stay in touch the whole time! Being away from our puppy for 4 days for the first time was surprisingly easy thanks to Marsha’s great care! She was also flexible and worked with us every step of the way!”
“Kara was wonderful! She was so quick to respond and sent me sweet updates and pictures of our pup. She went out of her way to be accommodating of our crazy schedule the day of drop off. Her family spoiled our dog with attention, she came home and passed out after a bath like a toddler. I highly recommend Kara!”
“Natasha was great to work with! She sent pictures every day and was excellent with communication. Scooby was well taken care of and has a new buddy in Marshmallow!”
“Stephanie was AMAZING!! I will definitely use her for kali all the time! She was so good at sending pictures and having fun with our kali girl! Super accommodating as well! 100% recommend!!!!”
“Chelsea looked after my 2 pups and she was absolutely amazing! One of them ended up being naughty but she handles her with care and always gave me updates every day, which made me feel not nervous to leave them at her place. Her pups are also great that they played (or tolerated haha) mine. The best sitter ever :) Thank you so much!”
“Jade was so very conscientious about Rudi and how he was adjusting. She spent time with him to help him overcome his sadness that I had left him, and she was understanding about his needs. When I returned, Rudi was happy to see me, but he went to Jade and gave her a "doggy hug" to say thank you and show his affection. Everything worked so well with Jade for Rudi and for me. She really is understanding and the dogs she day-sits were so well adjusted, too. Thank you, Jade, so much for being great for Rudi!”
“This was the first time Lincoln has stayed overnight with Renee and her family. I already knew he would be well taken care of. Renee has watched him before during the day. They're a caring and loving family that genuinely care about your dogs like their own!”
“Cheri is our number 1 go to dog sitter!!! She is very patient and loving with our dog, and great at communicating and keeping in touch while we are gone. She is the best!”
“Kristin was amazing with our little guy! She kept me updated with pictures and texts to show how he was doing. Since this was my first time leaving our little dog I was nervous but she invited me to come meet her first which reassured me a lot. Kovu had an amazing time there and got a ton of snuggles and walks there. No doubt about it Kristin is the best and would recommend her to everyone!!”
“We are glad we had our dogs stay with Kim! She did a great job with them, and they came home happy and healthy. We do wish there had been a little more communication from her about how the dogs were doing, but overall we were very happy with the level of care provided.”
“They sent regular updates, photos and texts. I was worried my dog wouldn’t want to return. We loved Victoria and her family. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Highly recommend!”
“We love Clayton and Aubrey and their family. Our last couple of rover sitters have been horrible experiences so much so our dog was sick at the vet for a week after. I was very hesitant to leave our dog again but Aubrey and Clayton did an amazing job! We rebooked another trip with them for almost two weeks and when we dropped our dog off she was very excited and eager to go in and play (this has never happened at a babysitter or boarding). They’ve got a great backyard for the dogs to play in. Their dog is very friendly with ours. Their kids love the dogs so much. We got multiple videos during our vacation. They are easy to work with regarding pick up/drop off times. Aubrey is very quick to respond to messages. It’s been such a relief to finally find someone we can trust. We will definitely be going back and would definitely recommend them!”
“Jessica loved our girl so well for us while we were gone. I loved getting pictures of her while we were away and she was very easy to get in touch with and very accommodating when our plans changed.”
“This was our first time using Rover and Crystal and we cannot say enough good things about our experience. Crystal was extremely easy to talk to and work with, she was very organized. She truly loves dogs and is so good with them. We had a great meet and greet the day before boarding Meadow, which made the next day drop off quick, simple, and stress free. We loved the texts, photos, and video she sent while we were gone. Meadow was so happy with her and received the best care. She has been very stressed when we’ve boarded her elsewhere and did not have any of the issues she’s had in the past. We loved Crystal and will definitely be using her services again. ♥️♥️♥️”
“Jodi and her daughters are amazing and you can tell they really love dogs and doing this! I think my dog came home disappointed she had to leave! I loved the daily check ins with photos. I also loved how prepared they are. We didn’t need to bring anything really since they had anything she would need! Would absolutely recommend and will be boarding with her again for sure!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Elk Ridge is $38
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Elk Ridge
Wish I could give more stars!⭐️ Nicole is flexible, personable and Mango forgot about us about 2 seconds after we got there! Her children are sweet, and loving and I’m sure were a big part of Mango’s happy experience. I loved her friendly little dog pack and mango loved joining her pack for the day. She was happy and non-punishing😂 when we picked her up which was a first for us. She was EXHAUSTED the whole next day. My husband joked that our little princess might need a day with Nicole at least once a month whether we go on vacation or not! 😂 She absolutely loved running around and checking on the cows and being on the farm. We will use Nicole again and again!

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.
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.
94% of sitters in Elk Ridge 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 Elk Ridge 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 Elk Ridge.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Elk Ridge. On Rover:
- 82% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Elk Ridge 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 UT 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
