“Lindsay and her family were fantastic with my pup!! I was hesitant with the idea of leaving him with a family I didn’t know, but I was instantly relieved upon meeting them! They were so kind and so willing to accommodate anything my puppy needed to feel at home. The daily pictures and text updates were reassuring to know that he was doing well. Lindsay was also flexible with pick up/drop off times which takes some of the stress off traveling. I will definitely be reaching back out to Lindsay for any future needs for my pup.”

“Jessie had the best time!! Amber sent updated photos on a routine basis, let me know how Jesse was doing, and was great at responding. She and her husband are super great! 10/10 will be using again. :)”

About: Hi! I am Bethani! I have seven years of experience as a professional pet groomer, and two years of experience as a pet sitter. I am at CPR and first aid certified. I have 4 pups and 1 cat of my own, with ages ranging from 6 months to 9 years, so I am comfortable with any age! I know the daily Tasks and care that come with caring for a senior pup. I currently participate in FastCat, Barn hunt, confirmation, and grooming competitions with some of my pups. I love traveling and keeping happy with my dogs! I am comfortable taking care of any size dog or cat 😊 I do also have experience in caring for a small animals, animals and reptiles I am a professional pet groomer, so I get to spend my entire day with wonderful dogs! I would love to spend time with your fur kiddos while you are away. I work a full time 8hr job (not Rover) Monday-Thursday, however I’m still happy to watch pups during these days. I am currently able to offer boarding in my home for dogs that are comfortable around both dogs and cats. When I visit your home I will be clean and tidy and clean up any messes that are needed

“We are SO happy with the care Marnie/Jeffery & family gave to our Luna! They went above and beyond for our girl and kept us updated as they watched her! We couldn’t be happier and will definitely bring our girl back to them! This was our first time using Rover and we could be happier with the care Luna got and how affordable!! THANK YOU!”

“She was great, she gave me updates and pictures of how my Buddy was doing as it was my first experience using Rover and I highly recommended her for doggy boarding!!”

“Zach has watched our highly anxious dog twice now and he has done such a great job both times!! We can enjoy our vacations knowing our dog is in such great hands with Zach!”

“Parker was very understanding when we had to cancel last minute due to illness, then we rebooked last weekend and she is very responsive with quick replies and Addie came home calm and well cared or. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m Jaden! An animal lover, active homebody, and someone who truly understands how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. 🤍 I strive to create a calm, loving, and comfortable environment where pets feel safe, cared for, and genuinely welcomed.. not just “watched.” Whether your pet loves adventure, playtime, cuddles, slow mornings, or simply having someone nearby, I do my best to match their individual needs and personality. I have experience with both dogs and cats of various ages, temperaments, and energy levels through Rover as well as personal pet care experience. I’m especially attentive to communication and love keeping pet parents updated with thoughtful messages, photos, and little moments throughout their stay so you can feel connected and at ease while away. A little about me: • Active lifestyle — great for walks, play, and enrichment • Calm and patient personality • Clean, cozy, pet-loving environment • Comfortable with routines, medications, and special instructions • Big believer that pets deserve love, structure, and safety I know every animal is different, and I truly care about making sure they feel secure, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet! 🐾 I have a pretty flexible work schedule so I can accommodate to most last minute needs. Personal preference would be afternoons for walking dogs but of course any time you need, I will make work! Besides from outdoor play, indoor environmental stimulation is also a priority. I love to snuggle with animals to establish safety and trust. My cat has her own cat tree that she loves as well.
“My puppy had a great time with Samantha and Braden! She was excited at drop-off and happy and tired at pickup. They sent photos/updates while our dog was in their care. Kept things easy for us!”

“Shayla is very responsive and great to work with. She treats your dog like one of her own. She has an awesome large fenced in back yard with so much space to play. I loved all the pictures and updates she sends. Will definitely be back for more stays!”


About: I have been dog sitting and babysitting for as long as I can remember! I come from a small town, so I spent lots of time going to neighbors’ houses and letting them out while they went on vacation. I have watched pets ranging from the ages 4 months to 16 years. I know how to properly give them medication, groom them, play with them, and much more. I currently am working part time as a receptionist currently, but am in search of a SAH position so I will be home a lot. My schedule is very flexible and I would love to care for your furry friends! I live in a neighborhood near an off-leash dog park that my dog loves to spend time at. I like to take my dog to lakes to go swimming as well, if yours enjoys the water! We have a lot of open space in our home for the dogs to run and play, as well as toys!
About: Get your pup watched and played with letting you have a day not worrying, i’ve been around dogs forever wanting one of my own and loving dogs like no other. I’ll be there and you can trust me with your pet, i’ll run around and play with them all day long till there tired I love helping and i want to be someone you can rely on, im opening my schedule and able to check in and watch your pet and go check in between 8am to 4:30 every weekday i’d love to keep your baby comfortable and help you out with no worries in your own home, playing with and following everything you normally do.
About: Is the thought of leaving your dog in a boarding facility with strangers where they won’t get one on one attention causing you grief? Working from home means I’m here all day to give your pup the attention they deserve, and they will be treated like family. With two Chihuahuas and a Shiba Inu of my own, I’ve got plenty of experience with little dogs—including the “spicy” ones that not everyone has patience for. We love the yappers and nappers in this house! Here’s what your dog can expect: • Safe playtime in a fully fenced-in backyard • Lots of love and snuggles • Flexible care to match their routine (feeding, potty breaks, meds if needed) • Updates galore with photos and videos so you know they’re happy I specialize in caring for small to medium sized dogs, just like my own, and can separate pups from mine as needed depending on temperament. Big dogs are great, but this daycare is designed for the little ones! 🐶 If you’ve got a small pup who needs a safe, loving place to spend the day (or night!), I’d love to welcome them into my home. I work remotely from home, so my schedule for pet care is somewhat flexible. For daycare in my home, I do not take more than two dogs at a time as I want to be sure both my dogs and your dogs are getting sufficient attention. I’m very open to quick drop-in visits for feeding and potty breaks at your home as needed during the day and early evening. I have two Chihuahuas and a Shiba Inu, and they’re definitely spoiled! Since I work from home, they get lots of attention, playtime in the backyard every few hours, and plenty of evening snuggles. On nice days, we take the younger pups for leashed walks. My oldest dog is recently disabled, so I’m experienced with giving extra care like carrying her outside, assisting with walking, helping with potty breaks, and administering medication daily. We don’t have kids, so our dogs truly are our babies. Any dog staying with us will get the same love and care. Our multi-level home also makes it easy to separate dogs if needed, depending on temperament. I’m very communicative and will send as many photo and video updates as you’d like so you always feel connected.
“I booked Justin last minute and couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment we connected, he was super responsive, professional, and genuinely caring. My dog immediately felt comfortable, and I got regular updates (with the cutest photos!) that gave me total peace of mind. It’s clear Justin truly loves animals and takes his work seriously. When we got home, my pup was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I feel beyond lucky to have found such a fantastic sitter on short notice. Highly, highly recommend – will definitely book again!”

“Heather was so great watching our dog Buster! They were very welcoming to him. She sent me some pictures and updates about how he was doing throughout his stay which was so nice! Heather is super fast with communication and was flexible with what we needed for drop off and pick up. Overall it was a really great experience! I would definitely recommend Heather and we would absolutely have our dog stay with her family again!”


“Mikayla was wonderful once again. I have had her watch my puppy 3 times now for 3 to 4 days at a time and my puppy seems relaxed when I go to pick him up! I would definently recommend her to anyone!”

“We booked with Lezlie a last minute 3 days board sitting for our dog Pete. She was supper accommodating and took great care of Pete. We appreciate all the pictures and how we were kept informed about his day. We can tell he had a great time! And would love to rebook with her next time.”

“Excellent experience. We were nervous about leaving our baby and Annette made it easy and cared well for him while we were gone. Definitely will be asking her to take him again if we need service in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Larchwood
Michelle did an excellent job caring for our dog, Bailey. From the start, she was responsible, attentive, and clearly experienced with dogs. Bailey was happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time we were away, which gave us great peace of mind. Michelle kept us updated and made sure all of Bailey’s needs were met, going above and beyond to ensure she felt safe and loved. It’s clear that she truly cares about the animals she looks after. We would confidently recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Larchwood on Rover is $38.01 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 157 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Larchwood. About 94% of Larchwood sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 IA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
