“Very pleased with Olena! The place was easy to find and convenient to where I would be close to on our event. Their space is very adequate for sitting for pets. I felt very confident in her caring for my dog and she sent photos through the day and asked questions. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again.”

“We have now used Sharon to take care of our baby 3 times and I can honestly say there is no one that could give me the peace of mind that she does. We were gone for 16 days and it was obvious from the clear and excellent communication (including pictures) that he was getting lots of love and companionship. She truly loves the dogs in her care!”

About: I have 4 years of experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. As a dog trainer, I have experience with everything from young puppies and basic obedience to advanced training and working with high-energy dogs. I understand the importance of patience, consistency, structure, and making every dog feel safe and comfortable. I have experience with feeding routines, crate training, exercise, enrichment, and reinforcing training while owners are away. Your dog’s safety and well-being are always my priority, and I will treat your pets like my own! My schedule is currently open and flexible, so I have plenty of availability to care for your pets! I’m happy to work with your schedule and accommodate your pet’s individual needs. Whether you need weekday, weekend, or holiday care, feel free to reach out so we can find a time that works best for you! I provide a relaxing, comfortable home environment where dogs can feel at ease. I make sure they’re fed well, get plenty of attention, and enjoy walks and trips to the park during the day or evening!

“Debra was wonderful. I was half was around the world & never worried about my boy. She sent lots of pictures & updates, which kept my mind at ease & allowed me to enjoy my trip. I have trouble finding people to watch my boy because Chow Chow’s have a bit of a bad reputation, even though mine is sweet as can be. She didn’t hesitate & I’m so grateful. Would use her services again & again. 🐾”

These two are a delight and it's very obvious that they love dogs as much (or even more!) than I do. They had excellent communication, were organized, responsible and kind. And they sent loads of photos and videos through the week. Court & Emily are a dream team for doggy getaways, aka boarding + fun/exercise/play, we look forward to next time!”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my hands-on experience working in a veterinary office. I have many years of experience caring for pets and understand that every animal has their own personality, needs, and routine. I'm comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, cats, and dogs, and I understand the importance of patience, attention, and gentle care. My veterinary background has given me experience recognizing when something may not be right and understanding the importance of keeping pets safe and healthy. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with lots of love, attention, and compassion. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, happy, and loved while their family is away! 🐾❤️ I also use to be a dog trainer, through Petco! References Available on request! i am new to Rover but have been caring for pets, for 28+ years! I work full-time at a veterinary clinic, so caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life. My schedule allows me to dedicate time to pet sitting outside of work, including evenings and weekends. Working in a veterinary clinic has given me valuable experience and a strong understanding of animal care. I make sure to plan my time responsibly so every pet receives the attention, love, exercise, and care they deserve. I understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and on their normal routines while their owners are away. 🐾❤️ The safety and happiness of every pet is my top priority. With my experience working full-time in a veterinary clinic, I understand the importance of providing a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for every animal. I always follow each pet's individual routine, feeding instructions, and special care needs. I make sure pets are supervised, have fresh water, receive plenty of love and attention, and stay safe in their surroundings. I am patient and gentle with all animals, whether they are playful puppies, senior pets, dogs,cats or livestock or chickens ect. I also understand how important communication is, so I love keeping pet parents updated with messages and pictures while they are away. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own. ❤️🐾

About: Offering a safe home away from home, compassionate care, and peace of mind for pet owners is something that all pet sitters should be offering. I go far beyond this standard providing both care and training. Since I was a child, dogs and cats have gravitated toward me and I've always enjoyed their companionship; you can almost always find me with at least one dogs around. It's never been an unruly mass of teeth and paws though; I've always taken the time to teach my furry friends to walk on leash, to have immediate recall, to be polite in kitchen, and to use their voices kindly. I do the same with every animal that I am given care of, gently coaching them to be civil, furry companions while showering them with love. I am currently working from home and set my own schedule. I have a set daily morning and evening walk which your pup(s) will join. During the day, you pup(s) will have company of two dogs, three cats and plenty of pets from me. On weekends we go on adventure hikes. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company during the day. I have crates, leashes, grooming tools and home made dog beds for all pet care needs.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Hughes Mill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 200 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hughes Mill. 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.

96% of sitters in Hughes Mill 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 Hughes Mill 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 Hughes Mill.

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 Hughes Mill. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 Hughes Mill 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 CA 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.
