“We are so grateful to Anthony and Jayson for taking such wonderful care of Penny while we were away. From the moment I picked her up, it was clear she felt right at home and had enjoyed all the love, attention, and care you gave her. It meant so much to know she was happy, comfortable, and treated like part of your family. Thank you for all the photo updates and messages, they gave us such peace of mind and let us see how much fun Penny was having. We truly appreciate the kindness and care you showed her, and we can't thank you enough for welcoming her into your daily lives.”
“Erika and her family were great with Parker while we were out of town for the week. She kept me updated with pictures and reassured me that he was settling in well and got along great with her other dogs. Erika is very thorough and took the time to make sure all questions were answered and any special needs were accommodated. We felt very comfortable leaving Parker with her and he had a great time and was well cared for! Thank you!”
“Our first time taking a trip without our beloved Rocky. We could not have left him in better hands. The daily updates were great, and he seemed to have a great time. I highly recommend Xiting and would use her services again if she is available.”
“Lourdes provided excellent care for my dog . She sent lots of pictures of Riley relaxing on her furniture, playing in her fenced yard and playing with her dog. I would highly recommend her to care for your dog.”
“Thomas was wonderful with our airedale terrier. He sent pictures and updates about their adventures. Our dog has food allergies and Thomas was able to make sure he did not come into contact with them. We will look forward to hiring him in the future.”
“I had an amazing experience with Rick! He took exceptional care of my dog and treated him like his own. He was reliable, communicated regularly with updates and photos, and made sure all his needs were met.”
“Aaron took amazing care of Tucker and Lucy! He kept me updated with messages and photos, made sure they were comfortable, and treated them like his own. Both dogs came home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I felt completely at ease the whole time. I’ll definitely be booking with him again—highly recommend!”
“She was great with our 6 month old golden! He was very timid of other dogs and she slowly acclimated him to other dogs taking his timidness into consideration. I will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Kate and family took great care of our dog Arlo while we went on vacation. We received daily updates, and our kids especially loved the pictures/videos. We will definitely be returning customers. Thank you Kate!”
“Cara and Dan were wonderful with Murphy! They handled his quirks and kept us up to date with photos. Murphy can be an anxious dog, but he came home happy! We love that they only accept 1 booking at a time and allow the dogs to feel at home with them. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Cara & Dan to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Would highly recommend and use Joely and Carson again! Great communication, very accommodating and consistent updates with pictures. I think my dog is still sad that she had to leave, but I will absolutely use them in the future.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Ontario on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 303 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ontario. 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.
91% of Ontario 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 Ontario 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 Ontario 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 Ontario.
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 Ontario 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 NY 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.
