“Mike was wonderful and kind with our girl. He sent lots of videos and we could tell our dog was having a great time. I would rebook with him again for sure.”
“Micheal is great. Alfalfa comes home relaxed and well taken cared of. He is also very accommodating. We have unfortunately experienced flight delays and He has been very understanding. Thank you!!”
“Iryna is fantastic. I could tell immediately that she and her family love animals. Her pup was super sweet when we arrived, so that was a bonus. This was our first time booking with Iryna, which I can find a little stressful. I had nothing to worry about bc she put me at ease immediately. She had great communication throughout the entire stay and kept us updated with plenty of pictures. She noticed a wound on our pup that we weren’t aware of, cleaned and treated it, and let us know right away. We also had a last minute medication request for a separate issue, and she was incredibly accommodating without hesitation. It was clear that she cared for our guy like he was her own. We would absolutely book with Iryna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and reliable sitter. - Diana (and Roy)”
“We are so thankful for Jon! He did an INCREDIBLE job watching our pack of 4 poms over our wedding weekend! We have never used Rover before or left our dogs overnight and were pretty nervous. We even got on a call with Jon prior to booking and he was more than willing to answer our millions of questions. He was flexible with drop off and pick up times (we drove into NOLA from STL) and was so patient with my "helicopter parent" husband that wanted to set up their beds himself and was so anxious to leave them. Jon's house is also on a side street that made drop off really easy. We received multiple updates and the cutest photos the whole weekend! Our pack definitely had a great time. They loved the backyard! We have a senior dog with mobility issues that he was very careful with, and another pom with some hearing and vision loss and he was wonderful with both. It was very obvious that Jon loves dogs and took care of our fur babies like they were his own! When we picked the pups up he had everything packed up which was a huge time saver since we were driving back home. He had even ran one of our blankets through the dryer so they would have a warm spot to lay since the weather had gotten cold that morning! It is so difficult to trust someone else with your animals, and we were lucky to find such a caring and thoughtful Rover. Jon, thank you so much for going above and beyond to take care of our poms while we got married! See you next year! (-:”
“Elena took care of my two Chihuahuas Zoe and Gizmo. She gave update photos of how they were doing. My dogs were happy and content with Elena. I would definitely recommend Elena to care for your dogs if you need to use Rover. 😊”
“This was my first time ever leaving my dog with a sitter and it couldn't have been a better experience. Serena and AJ were very communicative and responsible. Received daily updates and pictures of Remi which really put my mind at ease. Highly recommend!”
“Regina was awesome and we will definitely use her again! She suggested we had a little meet n great before confirming, which is always reassuring. She had another dog there during the meet n great, so we sat outside on her front porch, as to not intermingle the dogs. Then she took that dog out on a mini walk while Miley and I walked thru her beautiful and clean home. The fact that she was so meticulous following the wishes of the other dogs owner, made me know she was going to do same for me. Miley had some special needs during her visit (some medicine and specific food to curtail an upset stomach) and Regina didn’t mind at all. It was a little cold snap, so I brought Miley with a sweater. When I picked her up the next day, Regina had even sewn shut a hole that had been in that sweater, I was so surprised and so happy. She is so sweet and we will definitely be returning!”
“Natalie really goes out of her way to make you and your pet a priority. We have a senior dog who recently lost her sister and suffers a bit of separation anxiety, not to mention our own. Natalie stayed in touch throughout the day, providing pics and updates about how our girl was doing. She honestly made us so comfortable through our first trial overnight and we will definitely be using her again.”
“My dogs were spoiled during my time away! I received daily updates and pictures/videos to prove they had a great time! Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
“Ellen was so amazing! Our pups were really well cared for and she was very flexible with drop off/pick up with me. Both pups came home happy and nice and exhausted from all the playing and outdoor time! She’s also very good at responding and sent a lot of pics for me. Would definitely use her again.”
“Blair was great with my baby girl. It was my first time using Rover. I would recommend Blair to care for your furbaby. She sends pictures and keeps in touch while you are away. It put me at ease while I was away.”
“I am so grateful for Randy. He took such great care of Willis and sent pictures frequently. Randy was also very accommodating when I asked if William could stay another day as my flight was delayed 3 different times! I would highly recommend Randy for future pet sitting needs.”
“Natasha was very easy to coordinate with and very responsive! She has clearly spent a lot of time with cats and I will be contacting again in the future if needed!”
“My little pup had a lovely time with Roxanne! They were great with communication and definitely put me at ease for leaving my baby for the first time in 2 years. I loved getting pictures while I was away, brightened up my day! Frankie will be coming back for sure!”
“Rachel and Mike took great care of our pups! This was our first time with a new sitter and they acclimated so easily. Rachel sent us photos daily and I have a sneaking suspicion that one of our dogs didn’t want to come home haha!”
“Mary was a wonderful sitter. She sent pictures and kept me updated on the status of my fur baby. He seemed to be in great spirits upon picking him up. Will definitely recommend Mary as a sitter and utilize her service again in the near future.”
“We received many videos and pics to update us on how our little pup was doing. It made it so much easier to go away for a week without her. We missed her but we didn’t worry and always knew she was happy and well taken care of. Aja was very friendly and warm and good to work with.”

Ashley was great with Gracie! This was our first time using Rover and working with Ashley! She was very responsive and sent updates including pictures! Gracie had a blast with Ashley and the other dogs! We will definitely use Ashley again! In fact, we have already booked her again! Thanks for everything Ashley!
Ellen was a lifesaver for us. We made a last minute decision to travel to NOLA and had to scramble for a sitter at 10pm. Ellen responded immediately. I dropped off our dog the next morning and received multiple photos throughout the day. You can tell that Ellen loves animals and I was immediately at ease leaving my dog with a total stranger. Definitely recommend Ellen!
Caroline did an amazing job watching Tupelo! She was highly prepared, asked a bunch of questions, and was super attentive to our dog’s needs. We were out of town for almost two weeks and everything went smoothly. We got pictures and/or updates a couple of times per day, and Tupelo looked like she was having a better time on vacation than we were 😂 We highly recommend Caroline and have already planning Tupelo’s next stay with her!
This was our second booking with Natalie and it was just as great as the first! In fact our girl jogged to the door, walked right in and made herself at home on the couch. That speaks volumes for her comfort level and mine. Natalie encountered a little taste of Gigi’s more anxious side when a thunderstorm rolled in but she knew just how to keep her at ease and all was well. Again, we were provided with multiple pics and updates, allowing us to also rest easy knowing Gigi was in more than capable hands.
Elvin is simply AMAZING !!! We have been with her for about two years now off and on when we leave town. Our sweet little Benny loves to go there because Elvin showers her with love and affection. We have used other sitters in the past, but none have compared to Elvin. Highly recommend!!
Regina is the best sitter we have found on Rover. She is caring and communicative, responsible and responsive. She watches one dog at a time, and we love knowing our pup is getting one-on-one care. She texts regular photos and updates, which we appreciate. Highly recommend!
Stacy is literally the best!! I am always nervous to leave Gigi with anyone however I really needed a sitter this time, so I put my trust into Stacy and she made me so comfortable! She’s very nice, her apt is clean, she sends plenty of pics and videos to update you on the stay and it truly shows that she loves animals. I will be having Stacy sit Gigi any time in need. Thanks for taking care of Gigi!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in New Orleans on Rover is $43.29 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 520 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across New Orleans. 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.
93% of New Orleans 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 New Orleans 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 New Orleans 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 New Orleans.
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 New Orleans 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 LA 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.
