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.”

“Excelente experiencia. 🐶❤️ Muchas gracias por cuidar a mi perrito con tanto cariño y paciencia.Me transmitiste mucha confianza y tranquilidad, y me mantuviste informada en todo momento. Sin duda volvería a dejarlo contigo¡Te recomiendo totalmente!🥰🐾”
“Cynthia is attentive to details, she was sending updates and pictures from Fiorella during the time she was taking care of her, her family was so warming with Fiorella and at the end of the stay Fiorella was calm ☺️ Thank you Cynthia!”
“Joseph was so kind as to take our Labrador very last minute. She is fearful of men in general, but immediately went with Joseph without any hesitation. Joseph sent us pictures of our dog playing with his dogs, which was awesome to see, as well as other updates that she was doing great. We already have plans for our dog to stay with Joseph again!!”
“Rebecca was wonderful with my dog Aspen. She was responsive and easy to communicate with, sent updates and photos, and took great care of my dog during her overnight stay. Thank you, Rebecca!”
“Amanda was great! She was extremely accommodating for us and our pup Ginger! Her son was also great when it came to giving Ginger extra love and attention! Definitely recommend Amanda for any of your boarding needs.”
“Katrina is very nice and takes great care of your loved one! My dog loves playing with Luca and always comes home exhausted.If you need someone to take care of your loved one when you are gone, I highly recommend Katrina!”
“Kristi did a great job, our two small dogs were happy when we picked them up and we could tell they were not stressed when we were gone. She snuggles with them on the couch and lets them sleep on the bed. They got along great with her dog. They even got homemade healthy treats. She let us come for a visit before their stay so it would not be a strange place for them to go. She is also 10 minutes from the airport. Will defiantly use Kristi again.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we were pretty nervous because of some of the stories you hear, but after meeting Lucy we felt completely at ease. She is such a kind and genuine person that we instantly trusted her with our St. Bernard Millie. Millie can be semi reactive around other dogs, so knowing that Lucy has experience with dogs like her really eased our worries. Throughout the stay she kept us updated with photos and videos and made sure Millie was happy, active, and well cared for. We will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive sitter.”
“Kelli was amazing with my dog Dusty!! She sent frequent updates throughout my time away and made me feel very comfortable through the whole process. My dog definitely loved spending time with her. Would highly recommend Kelli and will definitely be using her services again!”
“Very responsive and easy going. Jack watched our dogs for the first time this weekend and they were well cared for. They seemed right at home at his house when I picked them up!”
“Kim is amazing and took care of our Goldendoodle puppy very well. She’s very patient and send us many updates with photos and videos. Our dog came back to us clean and happy. I trust Kim with my baby boy and I can leave him with 100% peace of mind.”

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 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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.
