“Rebekah is an amazing person—kind, professional, and very great with animals. She kept me updated with photos and my dog was happy and relaxed when I got home. I’ll definitely book her again!”
“We love boarding our dog Winston with James. We know Winston is in great hands and will have a wonderful time, so we can take trips guilt-free and worry-free. Although we have other options, we know Winston will get the most loving attention and have the best time with James. Highly recommended!”
“Lucky had a great time with Michelle and her family. He learned new tricks and was well loved there! So grateful for Michelle and her family for taking such good care of Lucky while we were away!”
“Linda is absolutely AMAZING. I had never left my sweet pups at another home while I had traveled. I always boarded them at a daycare/boarding facility. When I did a search on Rover for boarding in my area, I came upon Linda. We had a meet and greet for our pups and it was the most incredible experience I have ever had with meet and greet. I dropped my Sophie & Charlie off the day before I headed to the Bahamas and left them in the WONDERFUL hands of Linda for 6 days! Linda always kept me up to date on them with pictures, sweet words in dog talk from my "fur kids", things they experienced that day, etc. Linda is the kindest soul I have truly every met. Her farm is BEAUTIFUL, her home comfortable and clean and her family lovely! My dogs were depressed for 2 days when I brought them home! I can honestly say I will never, ever leave my dogs anywhere else when I travel! Thank you Mama Linda! Sophie and Charlie adore you and miss you and so do I!!”
“This is the third time our little havanese has boarded with Nikki & Tom, and they've only improved on our first impressions - amazing people who run a wonderful home-away-from-home for dogs!”
“Adrienne has the perfect set up for pets and my dog Majik had a great time!! She is very responsiveness and seems to care a lot about animals. I would most definitely use again.”
“Zeke loved his stay with Gingi! We hadn't left Zeke's side for 10 months so we were a bit nervous to be going away for almost 2 weeks, but we knew Zeke was in great hands. We got daily updates and we knew Zeke was super cozy in Gingi's home. We'll definitely be reaching out in the future whenever we need a dog sitter again.”
“Our 2 goofy, big golden doodles always enjoy their time with Josh & Kerith. Getting photos of them playing is a nice little bonus, too! I know they are so excited to go there, but I’m happy when we pick them up - mainly because I always miss them. But, I never worry about them when they are with Josh & Kerith, because I know they are very well cared for!”
“Catecha was great!! My dog warmed up to her immediately and I felt confident leaving him with her for the 3 days. I would highly recommend Catecha to my friends and family, she is a wonderful caregiver for your pets. Thank you Catecha for taking good care of Bryson you are Amazing !!🩷😃 Tina Wood”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Madison on Rover is $40.83 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 256 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Madison. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover 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.
92% of Madison sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Madison 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 Madison 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 Madison.
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 Madison 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.
