“Stefani was a great help ! We were in town and totally forgot the Texas State Aquarium didn’t allow pets. She took Lola into her home while we were at the aquarium. Kept me updated. When back in town and needing a sitter will definitely book again! Thank you once again!”
“Samantha was willing to take our 10 week old puppy since we had our vacation planned prior to getting him. She also worked with him on some of his training while we were gone and shared some pointers.”
“Heather was so great! She kept us updated during our trip and sent us pictures which we were so grateful for. Bella even came home with a new toy! We will definitely use her in the future!”
“Tisha was so great with our fur babies! We planned a week away for vacation and were so worried about who will take care of our boys. We hated the thought of them being caged for 1 week with regular boarding. Tisha was so kind to meet with us and put our nerves at ease. She treated our boys like her own and sent regular updates, pictures, and videos. They loved playing with the other dogs and running in their big yard. It was like they were having a vacation of their own! I would definitely use her again in the future and highly recommend her to care for your fur babies. ??”
“Debbie was so very diligent in sending me pictures and updates about my Ruby. She was a very lovely lady. Ruby came home tired but well taken care of. I will be using her again”
“Cindy did great with my pup! No issues! Cindy accepted for a last minute trip and had my dog for 5 days. Cindy sent pictures and checked in throughout the trip. My dog was returned clean and happy :)”
“Lesley gave 5 star treatment to my 7 month old puppy, Skipper for an in-home stay. At first I wasn’t sure about leaving little Skipper with all her big dogs, but she suggested an initial meet and greet and it was apparent that Skipper would become part of the “gang.” Lesley even got Skipper to eat regular dog food! Skipper was well taken care of and will be visiting his new friends for drop in visits. Thank you Lesley!!!!!!”
“Took excellent care of my lab. Provided constant attention to my pup and provided tons of pictures of all the fun. Will definitely board here again in the future.”
“Our pups were super happy, loved running in the backyard and looking at the cows on the other side of the fence. Love how she paid attention to all the details about feeding time/meds. The pups loved their vacation with Judy. And we love that they were part of her family and felt at home while we were on vacation.”
“Belinda shows love and kindness making her home our fur baby's home. Cindy has separation anxiety and when we get her back she shows she misses us but not that she was uncomfortable. That is all we ask, that she is loved and we know or feel we know that she was.”
“Excellent care received for my pet beagle. They gave him lots of attention which he adores and he thoroughly enjoyed playing with her dogs. She sent over lots of pictures and videos as well. I was grateful finding her last minute for our trip to Corpus Christy and glad our pup was in loving care!”
“Lillian is truly AMAZING! Ollie loves her so much that he didn’t want to leave. She was very accommodating and even had a meet up before so Ollie could meet her. 10 out of 10 service. We will be using Lillian for now on. Thank you Lillian!!”
“Reliable and very helpful and patient with our mini-yorkie when she had an anxiety attack. Would definitely call on Manuel if in his area again. Thanks Manuel!”
“First time using Rover and I’m so happy with the experience. Dominique is wonderful and kept me updated with Luna and sent pictures. I hope to book with her again very soon.”
“This was Ollie's first stay with anyone. Paige and family made Ollie feel comfortable and part of the family. I had the feeling when I picked him up that he would prefer to stay.”
“I simply cannot say enough about how amazing Ashley has been with my dog, Sasha. I unfortunately had to have Sasha put to sleep tonight, and I can say that Ashley was someone very high on the list of those that I wanted to inform. She treated Sasha as her own and the entire family loved her. I HIGHLY recommend her! Thank you for all you did for Sasha. She loved you back.”
“Danielle was awesome with scheduling a last minute stay. She took care of Apollo and shared photos of his visit. Apollo is is older, and she provided that extra care he needs. We will definitely contact her again.”

DeAnn was amazing. We were visiting the gulf and planned an outing Roo couldn't attend, so last minute, found DeAnn and she accepted. Roo got to hang out with DeAnn and her neighbor Fran. He was well loved on. Both ladies are super friendly and sweet. Thank you both!
This was the first time leaving our pup with anyone. Deann made us feel very comfortable. It was a very clean environment and Deann sent us pictures and updates about how our pup was doing. We were very happy with the care our pup received and will definitely be using Deann again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Portland 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 139 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Portland. 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.
92% of Portland 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 Portland 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 Portland 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 Portland.
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 Portland 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 TX 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.
