About: I have been around pets all my life. I grew up on a farm with several different animals. Our family favorite has always been dogs. Now, I share that enjoyment with my kids. They love being around dogs too! We enjoy walking our own dogs and playing with them. Your pet would have a loving environment with lots of attention with us! I am a stay at home mom. So, currently, I have plenty of time to schedule pet care. Please let me know when your pet needs some TLC!) We have a fenced back yard with room for dogs to go out and stretch and take care of other business:-) We have two dogs that can easily stay with family while we watch your fur baby, or our little dog, can stay to give your dog company. We will be happy to play fetch or go on walks as well.
“My wife and I have been searching for the perfect words to describe our experience with Nancy, and I’m excited to share just how wonderful it was! From the moment Nancy invited us over for a meet-and-greet, any concerns we had were quickly put to rest. Her warm welcome and her family’s positive, uplifting energy made it clear that Bruce would be in excellent hands. Nancy’s thoughtful care included daily walks to help burn off Bruce's energy, and she kept us updated with daily pictures, so we could see how happy and well-cared-for he was. She also managed Bruce’s eye drops and insulin shots with ease, giving us one less thing to worry about. Thanks to Nancy, my wife and I could relax and truly enjoy our anniversary trip, knowing Bruce was in the best possible place. To top it all off, Nancy’s prices are incredibly reasonable—possibly even too fair! We wholeheartedly recommend Nancy for dog boarding and care. Not only is she exceptional with dogs, but she’s also a genuinely wonderful person.”
“I’ve heard of Rover app but not really familiar with it. Erika is AMAZING! She has given our dog great care while we were gone. I felt like it was last minute but she was definitely able to accommodate us d/t family emergency. She updated us everyday thru the app and even sent pictures! Her own dog is great with our dog as well. We will definitely book again with her to watch our dog.”
“Diana took great care of my Dog Wooly and was very understanding when my car broke down out of town and I couldn’t come to get Wooly as scheduled. She updated me daily on my dog’s condition and activities and gave him his meds as I instructed. Wooly will definitely love to stay with Diana again 🐾”
“Ms. Vanessa Gladys is wonderful! So happy we found her! We were very concerned about leaving our doggie for 2 weeks to go to Europe to see family and after stressful research I am so glad I reached out to Vanessa! She has a great set up in her cozy home for the dogs she takes in and she is very reliable and trustworthy. We left her with many little tasks and information about our fairly senior dog and she followed all our instructions and kept great communication with us accompanied by pictures almost daily! She even posed the doggies in cute surroundings with the Christmas decorations. You are special Ms. Vanessa! We could tell you really enjoy watching over the dogs and caring for them. Thank you!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Meghan and John watching our dogs, Boo and Teddy. From the start, they were warm, communicative, and clearly experienced. We especially appreciated the daily pictures and updates- it was so reassuring to see our pups happy and well cared for. Boo can be a bit sensitive and picky with new people, but Meghan and John were incredibly patient and helped her feel right at home. They also had access to a great yard, which gave them plenty of space to play and explore (SQUIRREL!). It was clear both dogs had a great time and came home relaxed and content. We’d absolutely book with them again! HIGHLY recommend!!!”
“EXCEPTIONAL family!!!!! I trust Brianne implicitly. Brianne is kind, loving, and fair. My fur babies look forward to staying with Brianne and her family. Brianne's children are amazing kiddos and love my dogs like their own. Brianne and her husband, Troy, have become like family to us. I'm forever grateful to have met such an amazing family.”
“Christine was great taking care of our dog, always sending pictures annd following all the instructions. and I loved that she was flexible with the pick up and drop off time. My dog didn’t want to leave her. I highly recommend her. Every time my dog needs a sitter I’m choosing Christine.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of our dog on such short notice. We were nervous about leaving her, as she's usually looked after by family members or a trusted pet sitter. This time, we had to find someone quickly. You were so kind to keep us informed throughout the time we were away and for sending us pictures. She was so comfortable with you that when I picked her up, she wasn't in any hurry to leave. Her comfort and happy face told me she was in good hands! We loved the nice card with some of her pictures! Thank you again, and if we ever need to leave her again, we will definitely come to you first.”
“This was our first time using Rover and having a sitter watch our 6 yr old mini dachshund. Julie was simply amazing! She kept us up to date with pictures and text letting us know our fur baby was adjusting nicely! I will definitely use her in the future. Thanks again Julie!!!”
“Assenett and her family were everything I could’ve wanted and more to care for my baby while I was gone! When I did the meet and greet, I instantly fell in love with the family and felt very comfortable leaving my dog with them for 12 days. My dog is very attached to me and not used to staying with other people, but they were so nurturing and sweet that he instantly bonded with their daughter and everyone else in the family. I received multiple pictures of every feeding, every walk, and snuggles and playtime every single day! As excited as my dog was to see me when I picked him up, you could tell that he loved his time with them, and was sad to leave. I am so excited to have found someone so wonderful to take care of Rocky next time I need some help!”
“Ashley was so great at taking care of our dog. She was so communicative and flexible and understanding and helped our pup feel better when he missed being away from home. We are so grateful she took care of him and helped him feel more comfortable.”
“Thank you so much for watching our baby and taking such wonderful care of her! Diamond had another fantastic stay with Amy and her family. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing she's in such great hands. We'll definitely be back!”
“Our 7 month old Shepard pup was in heaven with Lacey in her & her husbands home while we took off for the week! She was quick to communicate and sent us some really sweet photos a few times a day which put us even more at ease. She played in the backyard with their amazing dog Hank, went on walks, and they were with her the entire time. I will definitely book her again in the future!”
“Christina is just a blessing to our family, she loves our Mindi and really takes care of her like her own. Mindi is not longer a younger pup and needs patience and love. Once again her services and love to our puppy are so much appreciated. Thank you so much 😊”
“This is the first time we rely on Carmen and we're so happy about it!! You can say she really loves dogs. She organized nice activities and sent me beautiful pictures. We'll contact her for sure the next time we need a place for our dog!”
“My little girls were loved on & cared for so well by Jessica & her sweet kiddos!🥰!! Loved the pics that she sent & great communication!! Will definitely use again!!💗🐶”
“Alexis was wonderful to our Sadie. Sadie is a timid gal and Alexis was patient and caring with her. Leaving your fur baby is scary but we left with ease knowing she was in good hands! Thank you Alexis!”

Sugar thoroughly enjoyed her time with Angie and family. We look forward to putting sugar with Angie’s trusted hands and awesome environment for her to be safe and Secure. We highly recommend Angie for any future booking or anybody who needs a family environment for their fur baby.
We left out Rocky for a one-day boarding and couldn't be happier with the experience! Toyin was absolutely wonderful — she gave his medicines on time, took him out for a walk, and sent us timely updates throughout the day so we always knew he was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!
Definitely recommend Zoie had the best time ever. I am so thankful for Lauren and her family for watching my dog Zoie. They went out of their way to make Zoie feel like apart of their family and that means more to me than anything. Looking forward to Zoie’s next stay with them.
I'm so happy I went with Melissa! I looked at about 8 sitters before deciding on her and the searching was worth it. I went out of town for a few days and needed someone to watch my new 10 month old chiweenie puppy. Some sitters had big dogs and she's too little for that, and others had a tiny yard without much room for her to run around. Melissa however has a big house with room for her to run around and play with a nice backyard for her to run around and play outside too. Her kids are lovely and had a great time playing with her, especially her daughter ❤️ I would happily leave my baby here again
My cats did great there. My 2 cats are scared of everyone and any new place but felt safe enough to come out on their own at night. My third cat was taken care of well and seemed very happy. Got a few pictures sent to me during the stay as well! He very flexible with my schedule and timing for me and my cats and my budget. Very grateful
Raphaela is appreciated for taking such wonderful care of our diabetic dog, Bonnie. She was reliable and followed all instructions for her insulin injections perfectly. She sent us regular updates and photos while we were away. We came home to a happy, healthy Bonnie. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Roanoke on Rover is $40 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 4,259 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Roanoke. About 92% of Roanoke sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
