“As always, my baby was safe and secure. I’m afraid to say she’s the best because she may never have openings! She really takes your dog and make them hers for the time they are there. My baby ‘Bear’ was a shelter dog so I was extremely worried. Not a problem! She took care of our old man (old Rottie) and after that, I have no hesitations leaving my dog with her. Thanks for caring for my baby like he was your baby!”
“Victoria was fantastic! Our dog had a wonderful time, as evidenced by the thoughtful photos she provided throughout his stay! Thank you for the great care that you provided, Victoria!”
“Denise was amazing with our pup. Sent plenty of photos. This was our 2nd time having our dog with Denise and would use her again. Our dog had a blast in the fenced in backyard. It was perfect for her.”
“Kathleen was great with Atreus for our first booking. She sent lots of pictures and was coummicative during his stay. I look forward to booking with her in the future and would highly recommend her.”
“Lori was amazing with our 6 year old basset hound. Our dog felt right at home when she stayed with her. Usually our dog gets nervous and can’t wait to leave when boarded. I will definitely use her again.”
“I am pleased that Myles was well cared for by Jim. Myles received the same pampered attention with Jima as he receives at home. It was also comforting to receive periodic photos to see how well Myles adjusted to his new environment. I would use Jim again in the future.”
“Nacho is a very selective Chihuahua who immediately adored Nicole. He exhibited none of the signs of anxiety he generally does when he meets someone new (or even someone he has met several times). He accepted Nicole as one of his special people and behaved as well (if not better!) for her than he does at home. Nicole sent us photos of Nacho napping, taking walks and looking completely adorable while he was in her care; we could see how content he was and were able to have peace of mind while we were traveling. Nacho will definitely be staying with Nicole the next time we need a dog sitter.”
“McKenna and Tyler were so awesome with our dog Rhys. Will definitely be using them again. Sent us awesome pictures and kept us up to date with everything. Made drop off and pick up super easy. Look forward to using them again!!!!”
“Mrs. Kateri was very professional and caring towards my dog. I’m in the coast guard and I got called into work within an hour mrs. Kateriset up a time for me to drop woody off. He had so much fun whether it was play time or nap time he tends to do a lot of that lol. I would highly recommend!”
“Kirk and Anita are true animal lovers and treated our dog as one of their own. They make sure to learn your dog as to how it will be while with them. They let the dogs walk around their house and yard as if they lived there too. The have a great yard, very spacious (almost an acre?) They also can keep your dog separate if needed in another spacious area. It was nice to receive photos of our dog while she stayed with them. We would, and will be using them again in the future. We felt great after picking up Luna, our dog.”
“Mariah is a fantastic dog sitter!! This was our second time in 2 years with leaving our pup Bodhi with Mariah for a week while we were on vacation, and Bodhi had a vacation of his own!! He absolutely loves staying with her and making new friends. She takes such great care of him, and keeps us updated daily with pictures, videos and updates. We will most certainly be using her services again, and we recommend them to anyone. Thank you again Mariah!!”

“As always, Tim and Lisa are amazing with your furry child. Bailey always enjoys her stays and we highly recommend bring your furry child to them. Their family will treat them as their own.”
“Lisa took wonderful care of my Honey. She kept me updated with texts & pictures. She took Honey on lots of walks, and even did an art project with Honey which she gave to me. I was very nervous having never left my Honey with anyone except my daughter. Lisa exceeded my expectations and I will be using her again and again! I am thrilled to have found Lisa! And I highly recommend Lisa!”
“Sookie always enjoys her time with Rebecca and Oz, and she gets great socialization time (which she doesn't get because she's an only child). Her tail gets wagging every time she sees them!”

“Tyler and McKenna were awesome! Our dog has a lot of anxiety and they were very accommodating and took great care of him. Our other pup has a lot of energy and they gave her all the running/swimming she needed. And they sent picture updates which was very much appreciated. Will be going back to them in the future and highly recommend to anyone passing through”
“Jeffrey had such a great time with Pat, we were afraid he might not want to come home! Pat kept us updated with pictures of Jeffrey making himself at home! We were able to leave for two days and one night without one second of worry! Just a wonderful experience for Jeffrey and us!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Petersburg on Rover is $44.94 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 169 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 NJ 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.
