“This was our second time working with Amy and she was great! She was very accommodating on drop off time to make sure it fit all of our schedules. She sent photos and gave us updates throughout the trip as well :) Will book again!”
“Sadie and Lola had the best stay!! The updates were great and we loved receiving pictures of our girls! Nothing is better than the reassurance knowing pups are in the best care!! My girls will be back soon!!”
“Chrissy was absolutely wonderful. My Poppy girl really enjoyed herself. Her playtime wore Poppy out. We are so glad we found Chrissy and I know Poppy is too. I would highly recommend her.”
“Abbie was amazing! From the time we did our meet-and-greet, we knew her home would be a great fit for Kobe. She sent pictures and videos throughout the weekend. Kobe had a blast playing with her dogs! She was also very accommodating to a modified pickup time after we experienced flight delays. We will definitely be booking again!”
“Scout and Fergus were treated to a stay with Lindsay and family during our visit to Cincinnati. We were so very pleased with the treatment and care given our dogs. We will not only use Lindsey again, but consider more visits to the area having confidence that our pets have made new friends. I’ll never forget Lindsay’s 4 year old waving and shouting “I love you” to the dogs as we drove away. Big smiles. Thanks guys. They love you too sweetie.”
“Our Shih Tzu Dumpling and newly adopted mini Aussie Penny just spent the week with Tammi. I was so nervous to be traveling so soon after getting Penny from the animal shelter. Tammi impressed us with her kindness and her experience with rescue dogs. She totally put my mind at ease and gave me lots of practical tips on helping Penny to adjust to her new life outside of a puppy mill. Tammi's home is beautiful, and her own dogs provided wonderful, therapeutic play for ours in a HUGE fenced yard. She also graciously accommodated our adding a night to our stay at the last minute. I will be contacting Tammi any time we need to travel. Thank you, Tammi, for all your help and kindness!”
“Angel did a great job taking care of our German Shepherd for a week. We received pictures and updates throughout her stay. Very quick to reply and arrange drop off/pickup times.”
“Bill and Haley are more than I could ask for in dog sitters… once after my fight got delayed, they were willing to bring my dog Sadie out to the car at 1 am, so I wouldn’t have to drive back the next morning. They go above and beyond in attention, care and kindness. I absolutely highly recommend their services!”
“Eliza took such great care of our beagles!! She was more than happy to meet prior to us leaving our dogs with her just so we could know who was watching our pups and to ease some anxiety. My dogs loved her right from the start and had such a great time with her! Highly recommend and will definitely rebook!”
“Jane was great Penny. We really appreciated her pictures and it looked like Penny really enjoyed her time with Jane. Would recommend and definitely will use her again!!”
“Karen was very helpful and my dog Dex had a great time when he spent the weekend with her and her family. She sent updates, and pictures of him while i was gone which was great to see. She was also very flexible with pickup and drop off times, and worked with me to arrange the times which was very helpful. Karen is very knowledgeable about dogs and will put effort into making sure that your dog enjoys his vacay. I highly recommend Dog Gone Fun Camp for your dog's vacation.”
“Patricia is lovely. She made Littel Gril forget who I was. She was treated like the princess she think's she is. Pat sent me daily updates with photos. Little Girl had a great time in the back yard and on walks. When I came to pick her up, she looked at me and I wasn't sure she wanted to go home. Definitely recommend Patricia and I will be using her again to care for our little Doggie Girl whenever we travel and cannot take her with us.”
“Simon loved staying with Dana! Dana sent pictures throughout Simons stay and made sure to answer any questions we had. It was a home away from home for Simon. I would book again and I highly recommend!”
“**Review for Jamie:** Jamie was fantastic! She watched our dog Sarge for a full week and did an amazing job. She kept us updated the entire time with pictures and messages, which made us feel completely comfortable and at ease while we were away. Sarge clearly had a great time too. We’d happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
“Tasha and Joseph were absolutely wonderful and so friendly! They were very accommodating in regards to pickup and drop off times which was generous on their part. My dog, Henry, looked like he had a blast! They sent me pictures everyday updating me on Henry’s stay. Henry had so much fun playing with their dogs and going on walks. They even let him sleep with them at night. They really welcomed him in as if he was a member of their family. Next time I need a sitter, I will continue to ask Tasha and Joseph. ?”
“Emily was great, sending pictures each day of my dogs stay and keeping me updated. She even shuffled her schedule around to accommodate the days I needed. Would recommend to anyone!”
“Hailey was great ! Booking was easy and I was able to ask the questions I needed before completing the booking ! While I was on my trip my 2 dogs were able to play in group play and I got updated and even pictures! Hailey assured me my babies were getting taken care of! I was running a few hours behind and she was able to make modifications to my trip which was very easy ! When I got my pups they had cute bandannas on and smelled like they got a bath which was a nice touch ! She told me her back ground with dogs and she forsure has lots of experience! This was my first time doing something like this but I’d book with her again !!”
“Wow!!! Kymberlee and her family did an awesome job loving on our sweet dog. Kymberlee was great at communicating and sending updates. We have four kids so our dog loves being their shadow and playing with them and our dog just picked right up with her kids so it was just like he was at home. Highly recommend!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Petersburg on Rover is $35.52 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 638 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Petersburg. 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 Petersburg 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 Petersburg 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 Petersburg 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 Petersburg.
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 Petersburg 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 KY 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.
