“Our other dog passed very recently and has been with Milo for life so leaving him was especially difficult. We typically board and this is our first time using rover. Barbara reassured us and sent photos/updates throughout our time traveling. Response time and communication was top tier. I could tell he felt comfortable and safe in her home and was happy as can be despite the circumstances. I am so happy we opted not to board. 10/10 recommend and would happily work with barb again.”
“What can I say, Miss Candice loves what she does. And it shows, It’s like home away from for my fur baby who all but jumps out the car window when we pull up for his stay. Thank goodness my window was up. Total opposite when pull up to the groomer.”

“I want to express my sincere gratitude to Justin & Stephanie for the outstanding pet sitting service they provided. They went above and beyond to ensure that Prince was well taken care of during my absence. Their regular picture updates and communication gave me peace of mind, and it was evident that Prince was in good hands. Prince returned home happy and healthy, which speaks volumes about the quality of care they provided. I highly recommend Justin & Stephanie to anyone in need of a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”

We love being able to leave our dog with him, always knowing she’s getting the best care and attention when we’re away. He also always leaves us with great care tips and suggestions. Thank you, Rackeem!”
“Recently left my puppy with Thelma. I was able to go on vacation without concerns for my pups well being. She took extra precautions to keep him safe by putting up extra barricades around her fence to prevent him from escaping. My pup loved playing with her dogs. i definitely will have her watch my dog again.”
“Sandra is an excellent sitter! Our dog Chico was very happy to be with her! Definitely we will go back to her as needed and certainly highly recommend Sandra as a pet sitter!”
“This is Sphinx 2nd time staying with Nikkita and he ran in the house as if it was home. Communication was excellent during his stay and she was able to accommodate dropping him off at the last minute since we were unable to pick him up. Our previous sitter moved from the area so we are grateful to have found her and our dog seems to love his stays!”
About: My farm is a beautiful sanctuary that we love to share with all furry friends! Whether they want to splash in the pool, run outside in a safe CLEAN secure area, or just have a nice snuggle in their indoor kennel or maybe even stretch out on the couch- just know they’ll be wagging to come back! I have 6 horses on the property, 13 chickens, 2 turkeys, 2 outdoor barn cats, and my Friendly Laid back dog Archie. I provide love & care which is more important than anything else. But of course- I follow parents rules! My entire life revolves around my farm and caring for all of my animals. I am on the property 24/7 as this is my full time job. And luckily it’s my passion. We have a beautiful fenced in pasture with lots of space to run. We are in a very private and rural area. We also have a pool- only if parents are OK and the Pup chooses to take a dip! Your Pup will always be supervised. If there are restrictions we will always abide by them. We also have dog crates if needed or requested and a beautiful inside area as well. Basically your Pup is gonna have free range and feel a home away from home.
“Yvonne is always great boarding Ivy. Our dog loves her backyard and staring out the front window. We always know Ivy is well taken care of and get many picture updates to prove it.”
“Lindsey took care of Sydney for a night. When I was there to drop off, the kids and the family welcomed Sydney and made her comfortable. Lindsey provided frequent updates which I greatly appreciate. Sydney had a great stay at Lindsey's.”
“Mike and his family are so friendly! We have a 5 years old golden retriever. They did a great job and took good card of him. They sent pictures to me everyday and are very patient to him. Mike helped us give medication to our dog since he had ear infection before we left, and now his condition is much better. Thank you Mike! You will always be our first priority in the future!”
“Another amazing stay with Claudia!! She was very patient with my picky dog trying to get her to eat. She sent lots of pictures and I could tell my Stella was having a great time!”
“We are new to the area and we’ve always had friends or family watch our pups. This was the first time we needed to use Rover. Nancy gave us a great first experience and I’m so glad we have someone we can trust to leave our pups with if we ever need to board again! She asked great questions to get to know our pups before us dropping them off and she kept us up to date everyday with plenty of pics and videos. Nancy was very responsive as well. We will certainly be reaching out to her for future needs. Thanks again Nancy!”
“Jenny was so great with our pup - she made sure our pup had lots of outside time on her beautiful property with a fenced yard ! She was very accommodating with drop off and pick up and took such great care of our dog - our pup came back tired from all the fun she had . 100% recommend Jenny and will be using her again for upcoming trips.”
“Our dog Cooper seemed so happy during his overnight boarding. He normally doesn’t eat at first when being boarded but he was enjoying a treat and eating his breakfast within moments of being dropped off. We received thoughtful updates and photos and Cooper was relaxed, comfortable and had settled in so quickly. Fantastic communication and quick responses made our trip stress free; we knew our dog was in good hands!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Middletown
Milo absolutely loved staying the night at Rackeem’s! When I get him back after at a stay at his usual boarding place, he is exhausted. When I picked him up from Rackeem’s, he was so energized and happy. I also appreciated the photo update Rackeem sent me so I knew Milo was okay during his stay. I highly recommend Rackeem’s!
We LOVE Shereen! She took such good care of our little Cooper. Her dogs are so loving and friendly, and welcomed ours into their home with no issues of any kind. Shereen obviously loves dogs and treats all of them like kings and queens...which is exactly what we wanted. She's really amazing.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Middletown on Rover is $44.4 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 620 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Middletown. 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 Middletown 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 Middletown 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 Middletown 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 Middletown.
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 Middletown 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 DE 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.
