“My basset hound Rosie had a greak week playing with Joe's dogs and came back cleaner than when she left (thanks for the bath!). Great communication and lots of pictures are a big help for not worrying about my sweet pup while on vacation. I booked with Joe last year, and I'll probably choose him again next year as well.”

“Julia and her husband were great with my dog. Even though my pup had a hard time for a bit, (anxious that I left) they calmed her down with a walk and made sure she got comfortable. My dog enjoyed playing with theirs, I am thankful that they took good care of her while we were away on thanksgiving weekend.”
“I have a 12 yo German Shepard. He's an old man now. We were going away for New Years and our normal sitter wasn't available. I was apprehensive about leaving him with someone new. Karin was spectacular. She was attentive to his needs and careful about his 'age' related shortcomings. She has a pup of her own and a young son who loved my boy. Karin sent plenty of pics of him and was very communicative during his stay, asking questions to make sure behaviors were normal and making sure he'd tolerate the environment there! I don't know how many stays my old man has left in him, but Karin is definitely the person I'd want watching him when I leave!”

“Catherine is absolutely lovely and clearly loves dogs! My pup was welcomed as if she was one of the pack already. Catherine did an amazing job of introducing her slowly to the other dogs and took great care of Lady. Would definitely book again!!”

“Mckenzie was great! Her dog Ducky and my dog Teddy became fast friends, and I felt guilty making him leave to go home. Haha! Mckenzie's backyard and friendly dogs, along with her experience and sweet personality, lead to a great sitter experience. Thank you, Mckenzie, for taking good care of my fur baby!”

About: Our home sits on 10 beautiful acres, giving dogs plenty of room to explore, run, and enjoy the outdoors. Set on a charming late-1800s Victorian farm, your pup will be surrounded by peaceful country views and the sights of friendly farm animals. It's a truly special place for dogs to play, relax, and feel right at home. My husband and I have always loved dogs, and we would be honored to care for yours while you're away. Every dog who stays with us receives lots of personal attention, affection, and exercise. We've recently added a brand-new kennel building designed with your dog's comfort and safety in mind, along with a large fenced dog run where they can stretch their legs and have fun. Weather permitting, each dog enjoys 3-4 supervised play sessions every day. Our goal is to provide plenty of both physical exercise and mental stimulation during their stay. Our barn kennels are equipped with dog doors, allowing dogs to move freely between their comfortable indoor kennel and their shaded outdoor run throughout the day until quiet hours. Whether they're playing, relaxing, or simply taking in the country air, your dog will be well cared for and thoroughly loved here. We love giving dogs the opportunity to truly be dogs each day by providing the mental and physical stimulation they need. With plenty of space for fetch, walks, and lots of outdoor fun, every day is an adventure. We offer both structured and unstructured playtime, tailored to each dog's personality and energy level. Structured activities may include fetch, frisbee, water play, leashed walks, tug-of-war, and more. We have recently built a beautiful facility with indoor/outdoor kennels, along with an expansive fenced play area where dogs can run, explore, and have fun. We always ensure that each dog enjoys at least 3-4 long, stimulating play sessions every day (weather permitting).
“Brendan and his family took such great care of our Coco!! I know she got plenty of love and attention. I appreciated the photos so much, I could tell she was at home at his house and getting spoiled while there. Thank you so much!!”

“Keyauna was an exceptional sitter who took excellent care of my pup, Nyla. Everything was carefully taken care of, and she kept me informed about Nyla’s well-being. Even when I picked up Nyla, she had everything ready, including a special doggie bag and treats for me to take home. I highly recommend her professional and attentive care.”

“Jennifer and Jeff were awesome! Tucker had the best time hanging out with them in their big yard! They sent pictures and updates while I was away. They were very nice and accommodating when plans changed last minute. Tucker didn’t want to leave! Highly recommend them and we will be back for future trips!”

“I highly recommend Sabrina. She kept our Chesapeake Bay retriever for five days while we attended a funeral. Her home is very nice; her dog runs are covered; and she has artificial grass in the runs, which are adjacent to the house so she can observe them. She has two huge yard areas for dogs to run and play. Most of all, she let our dog inside and treated her as part of her family. My dog was not stressed when she stayed there. Sabrina did not use crates, which is extremely important to me. She followed my dog’s feeding instructions and answered any questions that we had.”

“Nicole did a great job watching our dog. She sent pictures every day and updated us on how she was doing. Her daughter was great with our dog as well. Thank you so much Nicole!!!”


“Lisa was great! She sent daily pictures of my Gizmo and her family treated him like their own! I highly recommend her! She’s awesome! Thanks for caring and loving on my fur baby! We appreciate it!”

About: I have always loved all kinds of animals and will care for your fur babies just as well as I care for my own. I grew up with a toy poodle though I would have loved to have more pets. Currently, my husband and I have two small dogs but I love dogs and cats of all sizes. I have experience with caring for older dogs as well as very young puppies. I am familiar with pad training and kennel training as well. I would love to take care of your pets and am more than willing to accommodate their needs! I stay at home full time with my 6 month old. So, my time for your pets is very flexible. I am also able to bathe and/or groom your dogs if that is a service you would like. I have a bath price set but I’m open to conversations about that and other grooming services you would like to add. I do all the grooming for my dogs including haircuts, nail clipping, and deshedding. I have two very friendly dogs, but I do have enough space/baby gates to keep my dogs separate from yours if necessary. I have a fully fenced backyard and a very walkable neighborhood. So, your dogs will have plenty of opportunities for exercise. My dogs are kennel trained and sleep with us in bed, but I will respect whatever pet rules you have in your home.
“Kristin was great! Very easy going, prompt with returning messages. She took our dog out for multiple walks. Leo seemed very happy and tired after his weekend away with all the attention he was given.”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Franklin on Rover is $42.57 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 825 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.
91% 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 OH 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.
