“Ashleigh and her family are the absolute best people I have ever found to take care of my little teddy bear named Buddy. He gets so much attention it is wonderful. He’s happy to see me when I come but I think he wants to stay. I think he just wants me to visit and leave so he can be with them. They are absolutely great.”
“Melissa was absolutely amazing!! She always kept us updated. Max and Olive had the best time! She treated ours like they were her own! Definitely using again in the future! We had peace of mind being away knowing that our babies were in good hands!!”
“Heather is wonderful & took great care of Scout. She was really responsive and sent multiple updates. Scout enjoyed his time with her & her family & is looking forward to his next stay.”
About: I've taken care of numerous family pets through the years which included dog care, cat care, and hamster care. I helped to provide play time, feeding, over night care, and of course potty breaks/ cleaning the litter box. I am currently available for doggy day care services from my apartment on Sundays, Monday's, Wednesday's, and Thursday's from 9am-5pm. I am also available for overnight boarding services from my apartment on Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday. I have an open yard in the apartment complex. Sidewalks are plentiful for nice strolls with your fur baby. **I am requiring that all dogs that arrive to my home come with their own Collar and Leash AND POOP Scooper as well as their Feeding Bowls and Food.** Cat care will require all cats that arrive to my house to bring their own Litter/ Cat Box/ and Scoop. I will provide potty breaks for dogs every 2 hours unless need be sooner. I will also provide 1-2 walks depending on time needed.
“April did a great job caring for my 2 chiweenies. She kept me updated with messages and pictures and was responsive to questions etc. I could tell that my dogs had a good time with her and I will definitely reach out again if I need a place for them to go in the future.”
“Kim was just a sweet heart and was able to watch my little puppy Enzo for a few days while I traveled out of town. She kept me up to date and also sent pictures and was able to answer any questions I had because this was my first time using roover. Definitely would recommend her anytime! Thanks again Kim!!”

About: Hi there! My name is Jamie and I am a very active dog lover!! I love taking dogs for walks and runs, playing fetch, playing tug-of-war, and playing any other kinds of games that your dog may enjoy! I have 3 years of paid experience in caring for both dogs and cats. I love spending time with furry friends and will make sure that I take care of your pet as if it were my own! My husband and I have two English Cream Retrievers and we love them more than anything in the world! I know that puppies, dogs, and all other animals require a lot of time and attention, and I am more than willing to provide the care that they need! My husband and I are both Firefighter/Paramedics, and know first-hand how difficult and anxiety provoking finding a reliable pet sitter can be. I am committed to walking your furry friend when needed, dropping in to visit them while you are away for the day, and we are open to hosting your furry friend in our home if you need extended care. We have a small, fenced in backyard where your furry friends can play with ours, and we live near the lake so extended walks are always available!! I look forward to hearing from you and meeting you and your fur-babies!! I am a Firefighter/Paramedic and work a rotating schedule. I know my schedule in advance, so scheduling should not be an issue! If we are boarding your dog in our home, someone is almost always home between my husband and I! We also walk our own dogs daily, so we are used to daily walks and exercise! If your fur-baby is spending time at my house, I have two very loving and playful doggos that can keep your dog company! I live near the lake, so there are plenty of places to walk and explore! I am also willing to take your dog to the dog park at Pets Park if that is something your dog would like! I am very active, so long walks/runs are not an issue!

“Rebecca is great! My dog seemed very relaxed and happy when I picked her up. Not to mention tired out, which means she had some fun too! There is tons of room to roam in the fenced in back yard. Setting up a meet and greet was easy and communication was always great. We received lots of great updates which was nice knowing it was our old dog’s first time there.”
“My dog's loved being at Amanda's! I got so many cute pictures while we were away and you can tell they enjoyed cuddling with her and her son. Our pups were truly treated like family and I have already booked my dogs next stay with her.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Racine is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 797 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Racine. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
94% of sitters in Racine 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 Racine 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 Racine.
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 Racine 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 WI 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.
