“Melinda was great with my 2yr old mini poodle Peaches! She was caring and attentive and my son and Peaches loved her sweet dogs River and Winter too! Highly recommend her sitting services and will book Peaches a stay again with her, she loved it!”
“Brooke, Jeremy and Family were absolutely wonderful! Five stars, 10/10 ! Thank you for the care and attention you gave our Pomeranian babies! The daily photos made us so happy!”
“Thank you so much Melissa and Angel! It was my first time using them and they made me feel at ease. They send me pictures and updates throughout the whole stay on how Rocky was doing. See you guys soon!”
“We use Kadie for an overnight stay for our dog. She was very kind and sweet. The neighborhood was very nice and Secure seemed and our dog seemed happy when we picked him up the next day I would highly recommend her.”
“It’s been a number of years since we have asked a non-family member to take care of the pups, so we were thrilled to find Emanuel who welcomed Tilley and Houdini into his home and treated them like family.”
“George did such a good job watching Milo! He was attentive to him being comfortable and communicated with me multiple times a day! I could tell Milo was taken care of very well! Would use him again!!”
“We absolutely love Tiffany! Our little Annie has never been happier going to or coming home from Tiffany’s. Prior to finding her, Annie would go to boarding, wouldn’t eat and become depressed. She also has anxiety when she’s around a lot of dogs and just seemed miserable. Coming home she would mope around for a few days until she snapped back into her routine. With her stays at Tiffany’s we see a very happy little girl - no moping and definitely much happier. Tiffany gives us updates throughout her stay which helps with our anxiety of leaving her with someone besides family. 💕 Highly recommend!”
“Ana was an absolute pleasure to work with! From the very first message she was warm, friendly, and super responsive. Communication was excellent the entire time — she kept us updated with photos and check-ins so we never had to wonder how the pups were doing. Our dogs clearly had a fantastic time with her. They came home happy, relaxed, and tired in the best way. It’s obvious Ana genuinely loves dogs and knows how to make them feel comfortable and cared for. We feel so lucky to have found her and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!”
“Kim was amazing with our pup, Jett. She took such good care of him. He didn't want to come home. I highly recommend Kim. She provided me with daily updates and pictures. I was able to enjoy my time away knowing Jett was in good hands. I will continue to use Kim.”
“Carole was especially helpful to our last minute needs. We had flight delays and was unable to pick up at our scheduled time. She was communicative and flexible. Sadie looks like she had plenty of space to run and play with several other dogs.”
“Renata and family were very welcoming to Loki. She took the time to set up a one on one meet and greet prior to committing to boarding him. On his first day he was very shy, but quickly warmed up. We received many happy dog pictures during his stay!”
“Pam was absolutely wonderful! Marble liked her instantly when we met prior to his boarding. He separated from us very easily, and went to respectfully making himself right at home with the snuggles. We just got back home from picking him up, and he was all smiles with a happy tail! Pam is absolutely a dog person, who knows her stuff! We look forward to working with her in the future!”
“Kim definitely understood how much of a crazy dog mom I was when I said send a lot of pictures of my pups. She only had them overnight, but that was a big deal for me because that was the first time leaving them with someone. Over the course of two days I got 30 pictures and videos which made me feel so comfortable and I didn't worry about them at all. They got to go on multiple walks and her pup was lovely and kept my pups entertained the entire time! Definitely would use her again in a heartbeat.”
“This is my second time booking with Gwen. Each time was a phenomenal experience. Gwen was extremely thoughtful, provided frequent updates, and several pictures of my pup's vacation. Always appreciated, thank you!”
“Isabella takes such wonderful care of Jax. She is a very sweet peron and very responsive. He always seems so happy when I drop him off and pick him up. He loves her dog. They play alot. I'm grateful to not have to worry when I am away.”
About: I've owned three dogs in the past 20 years. A greyhound (rescue), a border collie/retriever mix (rescue) and a chihuahua. Each one unique in their personality, energy level and needs, giving me a broad understanding of dog care. I recently retired and can't think of a better way to spend some of my free time, than with pups. I'm available M-F, and we could probably negotiate some weekends if needed. I love taking dogs for walks. We frequently walked our dogs at Kolapechka park and utilized the dog play areas. I could do the same for yours. Open to broadening my services to include overnight stays in my home once a bond/trust is developed between myself and your pet.
“Jennifer was so understanding, kind, and compassionate with my anxious senior dog. I used her for an overnight visit and my quickly felt comfortable at her home. I highly recommend her and hope to use her services again!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Northampton is $50
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Northampton
David was really friendly and communicative leading up to my dog's stay. We did an initial meeting before I dropped him off which was nice to do ahead of time and he had some tips to make the transition easier. David took great care of my very nervous dog. We had never boarded him before because he's so anxious but this went really really well.
This is the second time we’ve left blue with Renata. She is well taken care of. She loves going over to hang out with Renata‘s dogs and Renata gives us plenty of updates and works with us. If we’re running late from returning from our trip, I would recommend her for anybody who has a large breed dog. Her dogs are well behaved and she knows what she’s doing!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Northampton is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $57 per night.

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.
93% of sitters in Northampton 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 Northampton home-away-from-home, 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 Northampton.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Northampton 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 , 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 .
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 PA 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.
