Vincent was wonderful! Asked all the right questions and was dedicated about learning about our dog’s routine and personality. He sent daily updates which made my wife and I feel so much better an easier about being away from our pup. When we picked up Simba, he was relaxed and happy. I will definitely book Vincent again when we travel and highly recommend him.

A wonderful experience! With this being our first time away from our Oshie, we were nervous but Jona made us feel comfortable from the start. She kept us posted about Oshie’s adventures. Sending lots of pictures which we all loved. Oshie was all smiles when we picked him up. Would definitely use Jona again!!

Asia was fantastic. We used her dog boarding service for a few days while we were traveling across the country with family, and the experience couldn’t have been better. Our dog is still a big puppy, so we were especially grateful for Asia’s calm, professional approach and her clear understanding of how dogs think and behave. She clearly knows dogs and does a great job socializing them and making sure everyone is comfortable. She even went above and beyond with a bit of minor wound care for our pup while we were away, which we really appreciated. Asia also shared photos each day of the dogs playing, which was a great reassurance while we were traveling. The outdoor space is excellent and gave our dog plenty of room to run and play. Overall, the setup is convenient, well-run, and gave us real peace of mind. Asia is a true dog person, and we’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful place for their dog to stay.

Rae was absolutely great to work with when we had to take a trip shortly after adopting our pup, Moxie. It was clear from the meet and greet that she knows dogs well, and even though Moxie is still being trained on some things, Rae was great by giving us additional tips and tricks that we can use going forward and worked very well with her. Moxie had a great time playing with Rae's pups as well so it was great that she got some additional socializing too! We would recommend Rae and will be repeat customers

Plus, Luna had other 4 legged friends to hang with. Would definitely recommend and thank you for taking great care of Luna.

Jizelle was fantastic! This was our first time boarding Whitney using Rover (or ever for that matter) and Jizelle made everything so easy. From initial communication, to meeting her and her lovely pups at the meet and greet, all of our interactions with Jizelle confirmed that Whitney was in great hands while we were away. Jizelle was also very flexible with a last minute request to shift the drop off earlier than planned and provided us with regular photos and updates to let us know how things were going - she even braved foot high snow and ice to ensure that Whitney had adequate walks and fresh air following a once-in-a-decade snowmageddon! I 100% plan to utilize Jizelle's boarding services going forwards and would not hesitate to give her my strongest recommendation.

Bethany did an amazing job with our three dogs, who can be a handful! They stayed with Bethany for 3 nights. She was able to administer medication for our senior citizen pup, made sure they got exercise, etc. Bethany was very communicative and provided pictures for us daily.

Zhaorong provided consistent communication throughout Maddie’s stay and sent regular photo updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. When an unexpected personal emergency made the original boarding arrangement impossible, she worked with me to transition to house sitting so my trip could continue as planned. Maddie appeared well cared for when I returned home, and I appreciated her flexibility and responsiveness during the booking!

Got plenty of photos of Hercules during his stay and he seemed very happy to have a backyard to wander/play in. He was excited to have some socialization with other dogs. He had a small incident but Nicole was proactive about giving me a heads up and paying special attention to him for the remainder of his stay.

We couldn't have asked for a better experience with Claudia! Our regular dog sitter was unavailable while we were away on a 10-day international trip, and we were understandably nervous about leaving our 8-month-old puppy, Tilly, with someone new for that long. From the moment we spoke with Claudia, though, we felt completely at ease. While many sitters advertise themselves as trainers, Claudia is actually a certified trainer who runs her own training business. After talking with her, it was immediately clear that she has a deep understanding of dog behavior and we knew Tilly would be in excellent hands. Claudia was very flexible in scheduling a meet-and-greet beforehand, as well as coordinating pick-up and drop-off, which made the entire process stress free. Throughout our trip, she regularly sent photos of Tilly, and every one showed her having an absolute blast. We are so grateful to Claudia for taking such wonderful care of Tilly. We wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced, knowledgeable, and caring dog sitter.

10/10 experience! I genuinely feel like Cocoa found her second family. They were absolutely amazing with her from start to finish and treated her like she was one of their own. I received regular updates throughout the weekend, which made me feel so comfortable and reassured knowing she was happy, safe, and being completely spoiled with love and attention. You can tell they truly care about the dogs they watch and do so much more than just “pet sit.” They made Cocoa feel at home, and that means everything to me. I never once felt worried or uneasy while she was with them while away on my trip because they were so attentive and communicative. I honestly could not have asked for a better family to care for my girl. They did a phenomenal job, and I am beyond grateful to have found people I can genuinely trust with her. I will absolutely be using them again in the future and would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for loving, dependable, and trustworthy pet care. Cocoa was clearly in the best hands, and I know she will be so excited to go back! 🐾❤️

Joanna is fantastic and we can’t wait for our next stay with her! She was flexible with our booking, very communicative, and such a loving sitter for Wynnie. She listened to our needs, especially with Wynn’s reactivity, and I felt confident that I was leaving my pup in the best hands. Wynnie had the best weekend ever and even came back home with a new toy! Can’t wait for our next stay ♥️

FAQs for Boarding - Franconia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Franconia on Rover is $53.5 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 7,296 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Franconia. 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 Franconia 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 Franconia 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 Franconia 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 Franconia.

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 Franconia 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.
