“Valerie was a great sitter. Nina enjoyed her time with her. She always provided daily updates and we were so pleased to know that Nina was in good hands. We will definitely book Valerie again for Nina's care. Thank you Valerie for such an excellent care.”
“Courtney took great care of our pup, Biscuit for a long weekend. We never worried about him while out of town. Courtney sent photos and videos of him playing. We were at ease that he was well taken care of by Courtney in her home. We are on Courtney’s schedule for another stay soon!”
“Yamile is a wonderful boarding host. She kept me informed on Osiris several times a day, and he seems to being extremely comfortable with her and her family. I would recommend her services every time.”
“My little old lady was so happy she didn't go to the door ready to leave when I got there! Brooke took the beat care of her❤️ I got lots of pictures. This was a last minute booking and Brooke responded quickly! She will be my go from this point!”
“A FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE! Our puppy is only 5 months old, so naturally we were nervous leaving her with someone else for the first time while we had to be out of town for an unfortunate family loss, but Emily and her family made our worries disappear. We were kindly greeted and treated with updates and pictures throughout our pup's stay. It was easy to see that she takes pride in providing a home experience for our pup, one that left ours worn out from playing when we picked her up! This was a much better experience and better peace of mind than a traditional kennel stay and we highly recommend Emily! We look forward to more stays for our pup!”
“Rachel and her husband were perfect with my pup! They had a great house & yard for her to play in. Waylyn did not want to leave her two new friends, Cooper and Bentley. Rachel kept me updated multiple times a day including pictures! We will definitely be using Rachel and her family again in the future and highly recommend!!”
“Jessica was absolutely amazing with our 12 week old puppy! She was very communicative throughout the whole stay and sent lots of pictures. She was extremely prepared and comfortable caring for a puppy. I am so grateful he was in such great hands while we were away. I would recommend Jessica without hesitation and will be requesting her again for any future stay needs!”
“Whittney was incredible. I was so nervous to leave my Ghost because he has a lot of anxiety and she kept me reassured and up to date with pictures and updates the whole time. She was responsive and so incredibly kind. Ghost had the biggest smile in all of the pictures and videos she sent so I know he had the best time!”
“Mary did a great job making me feel comfortable leaving my puppy Sonny with her. She provided pictures and updates, and would definitely recommend her and will be using her again!”
“Sarah was great with our cat who has anxiety and had never stayed overnight at a sitter's home. She even allowed me to extend our cat's stay for a little longer due to unforeseen circumstances. She was very sweet and we appreciate her looking after our fur baby!”
“Olivia kept our dog for a week. It was the longest he’s ever been away from home but she took great care of him and was really good about sending us pictures every day. He had lots of attention and other dogs to play with. Highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 10 years old and have always considered animals part of the family. I currently have two 8-year-old cats, and until recently I also had two dogs, including a 12-year-old German Shepherd/Malamute mix who sadly passed away from heart failure this year and a Pit Bull who passed away the year before. Caring for pets throughout their different stages of life has taught me how important patience, attention, and love are. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, giving pets attention and companionship, and keeping their normal routines while their families are away. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, so I have a flexible schedule and am home most of the day. My only regular commitments are school drop-off and pickup. This allows me plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I live in a quiet apartment community with a small dog park that I can use for appropriate dogs. I have two friendly 8-year-old cats who are comfortable around people and pets. I also have a toddler who loves animals and a 5-year-old who is more timid around very energetic dogs, so I’m especially mindful of each pet’s temperament and comfort level. I will only accept pets that are a good fit for my home and family, and I always prioritize safety, supervision, and following your pet’s normal routine
About: I've been around dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments, pretty much my entire life. I can handle all aspects of a dog's care, from feeding and routine excercise to bonus hang out time or other extra special attention as needed. I've always felt a special connection with dogs, and they've always responded well to my calm, but firm energy. I will treat your dog with the utmost care, providing a sense of security and familiarity as we build a bond. I am currently proud parent to my 3 year "dog"ter, Eevee, who is a happy-go-lucky American Pit Bull Terrier with a heart of gold. Eevee and I, along with my wife, enjoy taking trips to go fishing, visiting the North Augusta Bark Park, and exploring Elijah Cove Dog Beach. We're excited to have your dog be a bonus member of our pack! I currently work part time, so I have plenty of time to accommodate your pets' schedules and needs. I'm happy to arrange "Doggie Day Out" for adventures/external stimulation (hello, naptime!) or simple potty breaks/mini hang outs - whatever works best for you! I have a fenced backyard, as well as the ability to separate dogs in my home, as needed. I do have one small/medium dog crate that can be used if needed/requested, though I prefer to have everyone together for maximum good times! My dog, Eevee, has a variety of toys and cozy blankets on hand that she is more than happy to share. I also offer a variety of dog treats should extra love be required: usually some form of organic cookies or fresh fruit (bananas, blueberries, and strawberries). Your dog will be in safe and happy hands.
“Kelly was great. Our dog Maizey was a little nervous with new surroundings but you could tell Kelly is a true pet lover and Maizey felt secure and happy around her. Unfortunately our trip got cut short by a day but Kelly was flexible and was easy to communicate with. Would recommend her 100%.”
About: I have had animals all of my life. I have been personally responsible for the care of my pets since I was seven years old. I was always raised to treat my pets like family, and I do the same with all animals I interact with. I regularly pet sit for my friends and family, and have been doing so since I was a teenager. I have experience with cats, dogs, lizards, snakes, birds, frogs, and most rodents. On my page you’ll find pictures of my own 4 animals (3 dogs and a gecko), plus some of the animals I’ve care for. I am a stay at home wife and mother, so I have a lot of free time in my day. My children are young, so I cannot have animals in my home that don’t get along well with children. I have three friendly, well trained dogs to get along with each other greatly. They’ve gotten along with any other dogs that have been under my care. They are also great with my small children. My dogs get fed twice a day, they get walked on demand, and they are allowed to sleep where they please. When they were puppies, they did sleep in a crate in my room. But as they were trained, they were allowed to use the crate as they please. My dogs are very spoiled, they get plenty of treats, they have lots of toys, they have their own beds, and their own blankets.
“Janiya took the reigns right away when we pulled up to drop Blu of for the week. With this being his first time starting long term we weren't sure what to expect but Janiya's positive attitude and enormous amount of patience with our fur baby gave us the confidence we needed. We highly recommend Janiya to care for your pet. Hey professionalism and kindness goes a long way and she will most certainly have a lifetime client!”
“Emilee is SO kind, and sent so many updates with photos, and loved on my sweet girl while I was gone. It was SO nice to know she was in great hands! Will certainly book again!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Kingston is $38
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kingston
My dog milo usually tries to dart out the door whenever I leave him at a sitter due to his separation anxiety. Not, Valerie! Somehow she must have cast a magic spell to calm milos anxiety. Whatever she does works! And milo absolutely loves her. Like others have said she goes above and beyond to which I absolutely concur 💯
Sarah was wonderful!! I will definitely be using her services again. She kept me updated everyday and sent me pictures of my fur baby. This was our first time boarding and it couldn’t have gone any better. She was so accommodating and her children were very respectful!
I had a great experience with Aliyah on Rover! She was very informative from the start and made me feel completely comfortable leaving Milo in her care. Throughout the stay, she kept me consistently updated with messages, pictures, and videos, which really gave me peace of mind. It was clear that Milo was being well cared for and getting plenty of attention. Aliyah is also a very sweet and kind person, and you can tell she genuinely loves animals. Her communication, reliability, and the extra effort she put into sending updates truly stood out. I highly recommend Aliyah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Milo and I will definitely be booking with her again!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Kingston is $31 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $45 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 November 2026, there are 219 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Kingston. 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.
97% of sitters in Kingston 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 Kingston 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 Kingston.
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 Kingston. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 Kingston 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 GA 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.
