“I can’t say enough great things about Armitage. They take such amazing care of Kharma every single time. Even when Kharma had to stay really late, they were incredibly accommodating and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. It truly gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. At this point, Armitage is the first sitter I call every time without hesitation. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with Kharma. The level of care, consistency, and genuine love they show means everything to me.”
“Chris & Whitney were great with Rook! I received pictures every day and had good communication with them throughout my trip. They also went above and beyond and let me leave my car in their driveway. Very nice couple who you can tell just genuinely loves dogs!”
“Anne was amazing! So attentive and took in mind my dogs usual routine- and took extra great care of her! I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her and would definitely recommend her.”
“Cherylee and Steven went above and beyond for my dog Clover and I while I was away. Being a travel nurse and first time Rover user, I was super nervous about the whole process, but they were so welcoming and accommodating to all of my pups need. Cherylee even went as far as to rescue us when my car broke down on the way to our meet and greet! I have an older pup with a lot of dietary and medication needs. They had absolutely no problem keeping his schedule and made sure to send me pictures and videos daily. I will definitely be a repeat client and would recommend them to anyone looking for a quality caretaker for their fur babies! 🐶💕”
“Zachery is genuine. He really loves dogs. He tried so hard to give our dog her meds with little luck But he persevered. He was very communicative and really cared about our dog”s reluctance to eat. We will use his services. Again. Joge/ Norma”
“Karen was amazing. Our two dogs had a great time at her house and Karen made them feel at home and put our minds at ease with many updates and pictures! Definitely recommend Karen 10/10!!”
“Anely was great!! Sent update pictures of our pups, was extremely friendly, and was completely cool about our adult dog - not 10 minutes after being dropped off - pooping on a nearby puppy pad. Will absolutely book with her again, your dog will be in great hands!”
“Carolina was great with Kobe. This was our second time using Carolina. She communicated with me throughout the stay and sends pictures that ensures me that Kobe was in good hands. I look forward to booking Carolina for future stays.”
“Leanne and Michael took great care of Cooper while I was away. They sent me updates with pictures throughout his stay. I could not have asked for a better experience. I would definitely recommend using them if you need to board or are in need of any of services they offer. They are lovely!”
“Everything was great with our dog’s stay with Paige. She sent photos and updates and she even was dealing with a storm and power outages throughout - will certainly book with her again.”
“Nick was fantastic! I left my 1/yo Willa with him and she had a great time - came home super happy! I appreciated the responsiveness and updates as well as Nick's steady and considerate vibe. I will definitely he book with Nick again - he made both me and Willa feel very welcome!”
“Keasha and her family took great care of Bagel! I was confident that my dog was in good hands. Will certainly come back to Keasha when I travel again. I can’t recommend her enough.”
“Jessica was the best!! Spencer absolutely loved his sleepover party with his new pals. Jessica made sure to keep me updated with pictures and videos of Spencer. She made me feel comfortable with Spencer being at a new home for the first time. She made sure he got his night time meds, and extra snacks! Overall Jessica was one of the best rovers I had. Super attentive and caring. Spencer can’t wait to go back and see his girl friends!💕💕”
“Robert is the best! We have booked with him twice and plan to book again in the future. He provides lots of updates and photos and cares for our boy so well!”
“Amanda, Thank you for taking care of our big pup, Roscoe!! He had a great stay and by the photos sent - he felt 100% at home. We will most definitely rebook the next time! Thanks!!! Sheila”
“Devorat is an absolute dream. She is truly the pet-parent that you want if you have to be away from your own pet. My dog Mookie stayed with Devorat for 5 days and nights on very short notice. She messaged frequently in the first 24 hours to keep us updated on how Mookie was settling in, and sent plenty of photos during the entire stay. We could tell from the photos that he was clearly comfortable in his home-away-from-home. He and Toby were great playmates in the fenced-in backyard, and he Devorat were fast friends, with plenty of couch cuddle-time. Knowing Mookie was well cared for really helped us enjoy our family trip. In addition to her care and attention to Mookie, Devorat also offered accommodation and flexibility in the drop-off and pick-up scheduling to make things as easy as possible for us as we nailed down our travel plans at the last minute. I really appreciated her communication throughout the visit, and I could tell from her updates that she was really taking time to get to know our dog, and that he was in the best possible hands. We already plan to book with Devorat again soon!”
“Jessica and family were simply the BEST! Louie did not want to leave her house when we first went to visit! Jess sent photos and comments daily, in addition to responding right away to text message when I had a question during Louie's stay with her. I definitely will recommend her, and wish that I could give her 10 stars as well! It was hard for me to leave my 13 year old boy who has limited hearing and vision. She was really caring and terrific! I am so glad to have found her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Riverside
Took great care of my dogs and provided lots of updates while they were with her! Very friendly and professional, and also patient with my older Frenchie who can be stubborn and sassy. Loved that there is a backyard for the pups to play and I knew they had easy access to go back inside if it got too warm.
Gilbert was great with my Tina and I’d highly recommend them! Tina was well cared for while we were out of town and Gilbert sent regular updates with photos and videos. It was an easy, low stress boarding. Tina came home happy and tired and I’m sure we’ll book with Gilbert again in the future.
Veru is absolutely incredible, I cannot recommend her enough! She watched our dog for a week while we were away and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our dog is a rescue and can be shy/anxious in new environments. Veru was so understanding of her needs and patient with her - our pup was cuddling up to Veru in no time! Veru sent frequent updates, adapted to our existing schedules, and took her to the park often for walks and pup visits. I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you, Veru!!!
Anne was great at sending me photos and updates on Maizie's stay for the better part of 3 weeks, gave her ear drops and allergy chews daily and was also very accommodating about the possibility that my trip could be canceled. From the look of the photos, Maizie made new friends with Anne's dogs and had a great time! I'm glad to find someone I trust to care for her if I'm away and would highly recommend her.
We always feel so comfortable having Mia stay with Briana whether it is while we are away on vacation or for day camp. This most recent time we were away, our flights got cancelled due to the blizzard. Briana was so flexible and accommodating. She made us feel totally at ease and to know your dog is safe when you can’t get to them means absolutely everything to us! Thank you so much Briana!
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Gabby and Mike. They were incredibly supportive and confident caring for our dog, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Their two dogs are just as calm and gentle as they are, creating a really comfortable environment. We received daily photo updates, which meant so much to us. When our dog became picky with his food, they HAND FED him to make sure he was eating. If you have the opportunity to book with them, your pet will be exceptionally well cared for.
Ashley is Absolutely amazing dog sitter! From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease leaving my dog in their care. They were attentive, loving, and kept me updated with messages and photos. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again—highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Riverside on Rover is $44.4 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 1,133 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Riverside. 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.
88% of Riverside 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 Riverside 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 Riverside 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 Riverside.
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 Riverside 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 RI 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.
