“For a recent week - long vacation, we left our 3 year old golden doodle with Jeff. This was our first time using Rover and leaving her in someone else's home. After an initial meet and greet, we felt very comfortable with Jeff and Ember loved his fenced in yard. We liked the photo and written updates we received while vacationing. Jeff provided daily walks and outside time. He respected Ember's schedule and tried to maintain her schedule. In addition to our toys and treats, he also provided some. We will definitely use Jeff's boarding for future get aways.”
“This was the first time using Rover and had a great experience with Holly and her family. We had 11 days reserved that turned into 12 due to a flight cancellation which Holly was able to accommodate. Once we came home, Max, my pup, went right to bed which means he was one tired pup. I’m sure the 3 dogs Holly has kept him going 24/7. Holly sent daily touch bases with pics throughout our trip which is all we were basically looking for. We hope to start to traveling more and Holly will be first on the Rover list.”
“Kristal and Scott were really great sitters. My Sophia was well taken care of and loved by them. She sent me updates on her and pictures almost on a daily basis. I would recommend them and use them in the future.”
“I would definitely recommend Todd as a sitter! He took my dog for walks and she enjoyed playing in their fenced yard. My dog had an operation recently and was still on antibiotics every 12 hours. Todd made sure she got her medicine on time and texted me after each dose to let me know she got it. He also sent pictures and kept me updated with how she was settling in. Very happy with her stay with Todd and his family.”
“We loved working with Kimberly. She watched our dog for the first time and suggested a meet and greet to make sure she was a good fit with her own dog. We loved that and it made us trust her from the start. When we met her, Kimberly asked us many questions about our dog that made us feel like she would take very good care of her. Also, Kimberly’s home is quite literally the perfect set up for dogs. We know that our dog loved staying there and we enjoyed the updates Kimberly sent us throughout her stay. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Bobbi and her family took great care of my fur baby! She sent lots of updates and my pup came home exhausted from all the playing he did at her house. I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“Michelle was wonderful! She made sure my pups felt completely comfortable the whole time. I loved getting so many photo updates every day. I always knew they were in great hands. I will definitely book with her again!”
“She was absolutely wonderful with my dogs! My boys were super happy when I went and saw them and Melissa gave me many updates. She was very kind and very down to earth, would absolutely recommend and will come back if I need someone to watch my dogs again!”
“Krystal and her dog Duke were great with Jack on his 7 day stay. I was nervous because he was attacked at feeding time by a sitter’s dog in the past, but Krystal put my mind at ease and promised if there was any issue she would find a way to keep them separate and make it work. I had no reason to be nervous, everything went fine and Jack had a good time. We will choose Krystal and Duke again!”
“Sara and her family provided a wonderful home for our two dogs while we were on a trip! They have a large fenced-in backyard where they could run around and play with Luna. They came home happy and pooped from all their fun. We are so grateful, and will definitely use them in the future!”
“Anu and her family treated Duncan as their own! She kept us up to date on how Duncan was doing by sending us wonderful pictures and videos. Lots of love and fun! Duncan had a great time and we didn't worry a bit about our pup! Thank you Anu and family, we will certainly use your services again with Duncan.”
About: Have owned dogs all my life. Have had two huskies and one black lab. I think I can handle a husky I can handle anything ! All the time. Some weekends may be gone available all week long. Can be there whenever owner needs me to be. Work great with communication. I love being outdoors and going for walks so having a friend (the dog) will be fun. I have no problem walking dogs of any size.
“Zoe had an amazing time with this family who have huskies too. She had so much fun and got a lot of exercise! I really appreciate Bobbie taking her last night with short notice. Highly recommend Bobbie and Clark for taking care of any breed. I will definitely bring Zoe over again.”
About: I am a stay at home mom to my two (respectful) children. This means that your furbaby will never be alone and will receive my 24/7 love and attention! I have two sweet pups of my own (one of which is a senior) and two loving cats. I adore animals and am comfortable giving medications, accommodating special requests, and doing anything else to make your pet feel comfortable and at home! We are a homeschooling family with one stay at home parent and one work from home parent. Your pet quite literally will never be alone and will receive constant love, play, exercise, and supervision! I have a fenced in backyard attached to my house where your furbaby can play freely. I have two dogs and two cats that are very socialized and comfortable around other animals. Your pet truly will be treated as another family member during their stay with us.
“This was my puppy’s first night boarding and it went so well and smoothly! Kristina sent several updates with how he was doing and I could tell my pup was having a great time!”
“10/10 Highly recommend! Jamie did an amazing job with our pups. We haven't left them before for any period of time, so were a bit nervous about how they would do. Jamie was exactly the person they needed. She welcomed them into her home and made their stay absolutely perfect.”
About: Not every dog is a good ol girl, some are good ol boys! I love animals and dogs are a huge part of my life. I enjoy learning the ways they speak to you without words and building trust through positive reinforcement. I’m well versed in puppy training and sr. dog care if needed. I currently work as a Real Estate agent and High School basketball coach which allows me a lot of flexibility with my schedule. The most I am away from my home is 4hrs at a time and will ensure your doggo will have the best time! I have just under an acre of land to play on if needed. My dog(7yrs old) and I adventure on several walks throughout the day and would love to add your pupper(s)to our schedule.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hobart
We had a fantastic experience with Holly and Mike! They were excellent communicators, keeping us updated regularly and sending lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. They were also incredibly flexible with our schedule, which we really appreciated. On top of that, they are just genuinely kind people who clearly care about the pets they look after. We will absolutely be using their services again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to any dog owner looking for reliable and caring sitters!
Kerstyn was an absolute lifesaver! I needed someone at the last minute and they jumped right in to help on super short notice.They sent tons of great photo updates so I never had to worry, and they treated my dog like their own. I came back to a super happy, relaxed pup. 10/10 recommend and will definitely be booking them again!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Hobart is $67 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $56 and $79 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 202 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hobart. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
95% of sitters in Hobart 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 Hobart home-away-from-home, 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 Hobart.
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 Hobart 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 , 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 .
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 WI 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.
