“Thank you so much for taking care of our baby boy, we really appreciate the update and communication with you. He has a great time a lot of love for sure and play time, he was a very happy dog when I picked him up. We will definitely come back to you guys 🤍”

“It is so easy to leave Hondo with Rachel and her family. They care about him, play with him, and give him affection just like he was one of their own. He always has dog company, their four-footed family and often, like this stay, other friendly and playful guests. We know they're supervised and well tended. Hondo's always glad to see us when we pick him up, but I swear he moons over not being at Rachel's for a few days and is always happy to go back!”


“Barron had a great time! He seemed so happy in all of his pictures and Rubal and her family treated Barron like one of their own. We will definitely book with her again!”

“Where do we even start? The experience with Brooke was nothing short of amazing. Our Golden Retriever had a terrible time at a kennel in the past, which he clearly did not enjoy. For our next vacation, we chose Brooke and Bryan, and it turned out to be an excellent choice. They sent us daily updates complete with photos, were highly responsive during the booking process, and, most importantly, it was evident that our dog was well looked after. He returned home clean, calm, and even seemed a bit disappointed to leave! We can't recommend Brooke and Bryan highly enough.”


“Sheila was very good with communication and helping accommodate my dog while I went on vacation. I was rushing leaving the house and forgot to grab my pups wet dog food to mix with his dry food because that’s the only way he’ll eat it. She personally went to the store and got him some. She sent pictures and updates everyday and made me feel like I wasn’t missing a second with him, which I appreciate.”


“Our dog had a great time spending the week with Samantha and her family. We got daily updates and videos, and our dog had a BLAST. We are already planning to use her again!”

“Mary was recommended to me by a family member and Mary watched my puppy Tiny for 6 nights. I got daily updates and pictures without having to ask. Great communication. Tiny came home so wore out and you could just tell he was loved on for those 6 nights. I would definitely recommend Mary and hope to use Mary in the future for all my boarding needs. She was wonderful.”

“Thank you, Christopher takes good care of my fur babies. We took them there for this first time couple of months ago and we went back last weekend. We will definitely keep going back.”

“This was only our 2nd time leaving our pup since we adopted her. The first time (at a kennel) didn’t go well. A friend suggested Rover as an alternative. Lauren accommodated a last-minute booking, put our mind an ease, communicated promptly, and kept us updated while we were away. Thalia had a great time playing with her new friends and came home ready for a nap! Thanks, Lauren!”

“Kamala has been amazing with watching my fur baby! She has really went above and beyond and i always have peace of mind knowing she is being well taken care of when I leave her.”


“She was amazing to take care of our dogs. We were on a vacation and left them with Christine. She sent pictures and videos every day and our dogs were so happy to stay with her. We were highly recommend her and we would love to book with her again.”
“Nicole will always be my first choice to take care of my dogs whenever I need, she handles everything from emergencies to daily loving even better than I ever could. She and her household are truly a blessing.”


“Brook was an absolute lifesaver for my dog and me! From our first introduction, it was clear she genuinely cares about animals. She took the time to get to know my dog’s personality, routines, and even his little quirks. While I was away, Brook sent sweet updates and adorable pictures that made me smile and feel totally at ease. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and full of energy—he obviously had a blast with her! If you want someone who treats your dog like family, Brook is the best choice out there!”

“Repeat customer. We feel that aour dog is always well cared for while we’re gone and comes home happy. Will not hesitate to request Julie’s services for our dog in the future!”

“Great sitter, Xena was in great shape and happy upon pickup. Communicated well without being overbearing. Respected my concerns and addressed them. Would recommend and use again.”

“Nicole was an amazing caretaker of my little dachshund! He had never stayed away from home before and she made him feel at home and settled. I would definitely use her again. She also kept me updated and sent photos and videos which helped me greatly🥰 I picked him up and he was happy and calm😁”

“We were blessed to find Victoria and her sweet family to love our two furry girls while we were away for a whole week. Leaving them with someone I did not know was very stressful. She settled my fears by staying in touch daily and sending pictures. When we picked them up, I could completely see the girls had been loved dearly while I was away. I will absolutely call on Victoria if we need a sitter in the future. XOXO”

“Ms Sharon has kept my fur baby several times when I work out of town. She sends updates/pictures throughout Cali’s stay with her and she doesn’t hesitate to reach out to me with any concerns or questions. She was my first Rover experience and will continue to be Cali’s caretaker anytime boarding is needed. If I could give her more than 5 stars I definitely would.”

“Our doggies had a great time. They came back tired, clean, and happy. Ash and Michael were very accommodating with our flight schedule for drop off and pickup. Would definitely recommend and will book again.”

“We had a planned trip and had never used a dog sitter before (just a traditional kennel) and we had a new puppy and a rescue senior we were worried about them feeling abandoned…..so we searched thru many people on Rover and found Deborah and Jeffrey….and were so glad we did! They were perfect! They treated our fur babies like they were at a resort and made sure they were having their own vacation with full house access (of their house!) We got full low down on everyone’s adventure. You can truly tell they love doggies and what they do!! We will definitely use them again!!!!!! Thanks guys!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Franklin
Emily is a great person to have to watch your pet. She took extremely great care of our dog, Shiloh, going above and beyond what is "normally" expected from sitters. I would, and will, choose her for a pet sitter anytime. If there was a rating system for her services, she would get the highest rating from myself. I am very pleased with Emily.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Franklin on Rover is $32.1 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 786 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Franklin. 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.
99% of Franklin 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 Franklin 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 Franklin 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 Franklin.
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 Franklin 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 IN 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.
