“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our Frenchie while we were at the beach! Shannon treated him like one of her own—spoiled him with love, kept us updated with the sweetest photos, and made sure he was happy, safe, and snuggled. Knowing he was in such caring hands made it easy to relax and enjoy our trip. She’s truly the best, and we’re so grateful for the amazing care she gave our pup!”

“David was awesome with our very high energy, sometimes challenging, yet sweet Calvin. David sent us reports and pictures every day which made our trip that much more relaxing and put our minds at ease. We couldn't be more grateful to David and his excellent care of our boy while we were on the road. We recommend David 100% and hope to call on him again. Thank you, David!”
“Donna is great. She took fantastic care of our Beau. Made sure he got his medicine on time. She took Beau for walks and sent pictures and texts with daily updates on Beau. She was quick to respond to any questions that we had. We would highly recommend Donna for your pet care as well as for our fur baby again. Thank you Donna for taking such good care of Beau.”
“I contacted Marah very last minute to watch my dogs for me for the weekend and she responded almost instantly. When i took my dogs over for a quick meet and greet they immediately made friends with the other dogs there and Marah treated them like they were her own. I received picture and text updates about how they were doing daily. They got to play with other dogs at her house and at the dog park over the weekend which I'm sure they loved. When i picked then up on Sunday they were both thoroughly exhausted. I will definitely be bringing them back”

“This was my first Rover experience, I was a bit nervous to leave my 14 year old dog Lexi, but Kurt made me feel so comfortable - texting updates and photos. He also was above and beyond with understanding and accommodating to us being later than expected to pick her up.

This was the first time we have boarded our Jack Russell Terrier. Richard was very knowledgeable and welcoming at check-in, which helped put us at ease. We received regular updates and pictures of our fur baby while away, and we were welcomed by our pet at pick-up. I would definitely recommend zRichard and Kelly for your boarding needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Elliston on Rover is $29.23 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 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 July 2026, there are 177 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Elliston. 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.
94% of Elliston 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 Elliston 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 Elliston 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 Elliston.
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 Elliston 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 VA 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.
