“Stormi had so much fun she didn't even want to go home with me! Kay did a great job taking care of my dog and she was so kind. You can tell she really likes animals and I know Stormi was in good hands!”
“Cambree was AMAZING with my boy! She arranged last minute ,within hours, picking Cheesecake up at my house. She sent me pictures each and every day even sometimes more than that. She took him on a walk most mornings as well as socialized him with a few other dogs, cats, and people which he enjoyed so much. Him staying allowed me to stay at the hospital with my husband while he was admitted emergently and her updates kept me so reassured and at peace. Cambree even readjusted the schedule to accommodate our discharge date changing! We will for sure be using her again and highly recommend.”
“Banna Jo was terrific!! I could tell that Toby really enjoyed his stay with her and her pets. She frequently sent me pictures and always kept me informed. Whenever I contacted her she always responded almost immediately. I would highly recommend her and will use her anytime I'm in the area.”
“Kendra provided me updates throughout Charlie's stay at her house. It sounded like he had a good time with her dog and it was a much better experience than him staying at a kennel in town. Couldn't be happier that he had an actual house to stay at while we were gone.”
About: I have watched elderly dogs, puppies, and up to 4 dogs at a time. My sister was a vet tech, and taught me animal behavior! I am currently working part-time, and would love to take care of your fur babies! Pets are family, and I will treat them with care! Have hosted 2 dogs at my house over the past 9 years, enjoy their company. I love animals, and will cater to their unique needs.
About: I call a farm my home, where I have gained experience with a wide variety of animals including cattle, horses, cats, and of course dogs! I understand how important it is to be punctual with their cares, and develop a trusting, caring relationship with them. I also have experience in administrating oral, injectable, and nasal medications. Going on walks/runs is something I do regularly, and would love to have your pup join this daily activity! Let me know if you have any questions! I am a recent PA school graduate, and looking for part time income while I await certification. This typically takes a few months, making my start date late Spring! My day revolves around your pets! I have a fenced in yard as well as a playful and loving one year old golden retriever! Your pet will never get bored! I also have a crate available, suitable for a 50-100lb dog if that is of importance to you!
About: Throughout the years we have watched family and friends fur babies while they are gone on their trips. I have grown up with animals my whole life. We are on a small average with animals. Daily choring is a must. I work full time during the week, but weekends are free to be able to care for your lovely pets We live on an acreage that has no fenced in yard. Lots of room to roam under supervision. We have an extra kennel if needed to kennel during the night time.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Kearney on Rover is $35.52 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 11 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Kearney. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Kearney 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 Kearney.
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 Kearney 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 NE 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.
