“Sophia was amazing. From the moment we dropped off me and my husband both felt so comfortable and at ease leaving our baby with her. We were updated throughout his whole stay with pictures. He went on walks, and got to play with other friends. We will definitely be booking her again ❤️”

“Excellent experience in every way! Definitely recommend!!! This was my first time using Rover to keep our 5 year old cockapoo Blue- I found myself in need of a sitter and we did not want to use a kennel - we wanted him to stay in a peaceful, safe- home environment. My neighbor recommended Rover services. I selected Carla based on her reviews and pics. She was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable in caring for pets. She had a large well- fenced in back yard as well as being very accommodating / organized to pets inside her home. Carla communicated with us throughout with pics and updates which was really nice and made us feel comfortable. Smooth and easy process from booking, drop off, and pick up. Blue was well cared for and I could tell in his pictures that he was very happy. Thank you Carla and Aiden for making Blue’s stay so wonderful and taking such excellent care of him!”

“Pepper clearly had a wonderful time with Dakota's family. Lots of play time with other dogs, lots of cuddle time with her children, and lots of attention. Pepper was also the model for a great drawing from Dakota's daughter, and that drawing now is posted on my refrigerator! During the recent snowstorm, a rarity in this part of Arkansas, Pepper enjoyed the experience with Dakota's family her dogs.Will certainly bring her back for another visit when it's time!”

“We had such a great experience leaving Hannah with them for seven days! They kept me updated throughout our trip and sent lots of pictures, which I really appreciated. Hannah got plenty of walks and attention, and I felt very comfortable knowing she was being well taken care of. I also really appreciated that they wanted to meet Hannah beforehand to make sure it was a good fit for everyone before agreeing to watch her. I accidentally booked six days instead of seven, and they were incredibly nice and accommodating about keeping her the extra day since they had availability. I’m so thankful they were able to work with us! They were both so kind and easy to work with, and I would absolutely trust them with Hannah again. Highly recommend!”

I had frequent updates, and was told how he was being treated - the peace of mind was fantastic. I would easily book with Ginny again, I cannot recommend her enough.”

About: Many years experience as a loving pet-parent (cats, dogs, bunnies, guinea pigs, birds and fish). I have worked as a dog-groomer as well. I am retired and no longer have pets but would enjoy helping out with yours. I am retired and have lots of time to play and care for your pets. I currently do not have pets after losing my 22 year old rat terrier last year but would treasure yours like my own. I live in an apartment without a fence but I can take your dog for walks as needed and can give them lots of my time and attention if they are here. Otherwise, I can come to you for their care.

About: I grew up with two Bichons, which happened to be the high light of my childhood/teenage years. I now have two dogs of my own, Newt and Ember. I have a cat as well, Janis. I am an animal lover and understand how difficult it can be to find someone to care for what’s considered to be family. If I am able to help in a small way that is affordable, I would love to greet your babies with comfort while you are away. My current job allows for me to have 3 days weekend every other week. Full days during the week depending on the week. I would be more than happy to cover an entire weekend of care or two days on at a time of care. My dogs roam freely in my home. I personally have a doggy gate to avoid any countersurfing while cooking, my golden, Newt, will snag whatever is available if possible. Whatever is asked of me for your animal I will accommodate. Unable to care for animals that have habits of using potty inside home.

About: Having a dog in the home is something we are well acquainted with and very much enjoy. I am a homeschool mom, and we are rarely our for long periods of time. The kids are gentle with all animals and are a big help with feeding, playing, and cuddling with the pups we've had the blessing to watch. I would LOVE the opportunity to care for your pet! Your pet deserves more than a sitter, they deserve family! We are home during the day and night with the occasional need to be out of the home for a short while. We have plenty of time to love and care for your pup! We have a spacious home and fenced in backyard for your pups to run and play. We have time to go on walks if your dog enjoys that! We recently said goodbye to our best boy, Parker. The house is definitely more quiet without his little paws following us around. We would love the opportunity to care for your baby.

She kept me updated on Cali daily - my little girl was BEAMING in every picture from ear-to-ear. Cali misses having a buddy like Roma to run around with for sure. In the future we will ABSOLUTELY be electing Madison’s services.”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and currently have one dog and two cats. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, kittens, high-energy pets, laid-back pets, and seniors who may need extra patience or medication support. I treat every pet like family and tailor care to their personality and routine. Because I have pets of my own, I believe in slow, supervised introductions and a grace period for animals to get comfortable. I never rush interactions—your pet’s safety and comfort come first. Family and friends rely on me to care for their pets whenever they go out of town. I work as a contractor and am usually at my home office. My other office is close by, so if I need to leave, it will only be for a very short period. I’m very flexible with my time and can provide frequent attention, potty breaks, and supervision throughout the day. Our dog gets two walks daily—one early in the morning and one in the evening—and I can adapt that routine to your pet’s needs. I try to stay very aware of the temperature on which they walk as well. I can also administer medications when clear instructions are provided. I care for pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Dogs have frequent supervised potty breaks and backyard playtime, along with walks, play, and plenty of companionship. Pets also have a comfortable, quiet room available if they need a break from noise, activity, and the evil vacuum. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and adjust care based on their age, energy level, and comfort.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Mossy Head

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Mossy Head is $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $40 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 263 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Mossy Head. 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.

96% of sitters in Mossy Head 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 Mossy Head 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 Mossy Head.

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 Mossy Head. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 Mossy Head 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 FL 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.
