“Sami was in great hands with Patricia. He’s a shy and timid cat and she had him feeling safe and comfortable in no time. She gave regularly updates to let us know how he was doing, including a cute pic of Sami snuggling with her :)”

About: J'adore les animaux ! J'ai mon propre chien, un Labrador de deux ans. J'ai aussi trois chats qui s'entendent très bien avec les chiens ; en fait, ils ne s'en approchent généralement même pas. J'ai deux enfants : nous passons tout notre temps dehors et nous adorons nous promener... quand il fait plus frais, nous partons faire de longues randonnées. Je dispose d'un très grand jardin et de tout le temps nécessaire pour jouer :) Je peux aider à la socialisation des chiens plus jeunes ; les miens sont soumis et amicaux : ils veulent juste jouer et dormir dans le jardin la plupart du temps ! J'ai hâte d'avoir des nouvelles de vos compagnons à quatre pattes ! I’m an absolute animal lover! I have one dogs of my own, a two year old Labrador. I have also three cats who are very good with dogs, they generally don’t even go near them honestly. I have two children - we spend all of our time outdoors and we love to walk... when it’s cooler we go on long hikes. i have a very big yard and unlimited time to play :) I can help to socialize younger dogs - mine are submissive and friendly - they just want to play and sleep out in the garden most of the time! I hope to hear about your furry babies! Je suis chez moi toute la journée, tous les jours, et je marche au moins 10 km par jour. I’m home all day everyday and I walk at least 10km each day. Je dispose d'un jardin clôturé (clôture de 1,80 m) offrant beaucoup d'espace pour jouer. Je propose également de rendre visite à vos animaux et de jouer avec eux à votre domicile. I have a 6ft fenced yard, lots of space for playing. I am also available to visit and play with your pets in their own home.

About: Depuis mon plus jeune âge, les animaux ont toujours fait partie de ma vie. J'ai grandi entouré de chiens et de chats, développant un profond amour et un respect pour eux. J'ai toujours pris soin d'eux avec dévouement et affection. En tant qu'adulte, cette passion n'a fait que croître. J'ai eu la chance de partager ma vie avec divers animaux, établissant avec chacun d'eux un lien unique et spécial. On m'appelle souvent "Docteur Dolittle", car j'ai une capacité particulière à comprendre leurs besoins et leurs émotions. Mon expérience m'a permis d'acquérir des compétences précieuses dans les soins aux animaux, et je m'efforce toujours d'offrir le meilleur environnement possible à mes compagnons à quatre pattes. Qu'il s'agisse de promenades, de jeux ou de soins médicaux, ma connexion avec eux est indéfectible et enrichissante. Les animaux sont non seulement des amis fidèles, mais aussi des enseignants qui m'inspirent chaque jour. Je travail de la maison. Je fais mon horaire personnel alors mon horaire est tres flexible. J'ai donc du temps dans le jours pour prendre soins de vos chers animaux J'ai une cours arrière clôturer avec des l'espace pour jouer ou explorer selon l'envie de l'animal. Je suis egalement une personne active alors j'adore aller me promener. Il y a un parc a chien a quelque mètres de la maison egalement si le maître me l'autorise. Je prend toujours le temps qu'il faut avec chaque animal. Peut importe le service qui met demandé.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Franklin

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 49 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Franklin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

86% of sitters in Franklin 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Franklin. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 86% 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 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 VT 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.
