About: We enjoy having a dog. We do walks, sniff games, chicken broth ice cubes for happy hour in our fenced in yard. We want your dog to feel like they are on vacation when they are with us. They might be spoiled when we give them back. Sorry about that. My husband is fully retired and I have a hybrid position. At least one person will be home to attend to your fur babies needs. We enjoy taking care of a dog. There are no children or pets in our non smoking home. We have a fenced in yard and a nice neighborhood for taking walks. We also have an Apple air tag to put on your dogs collar. We enjoy being outside with your dog in the yard.

This was my first time using Donna for my fur baby and let me just tell you she spoiled him rotten. She was so attentive to him and made him feel right at home. When I first met Donna she was very welcoming to both me and my little one. She made me feel at ease. I knew I made right choice and I definitely be using her services again. Thank you so much Donna for all the love and care you gave to my lilman . ❤️❤️

Michele was great and I highly recommend this Dog Vacay. She has the perfect house and large fenced yard for dogs to run around and play. She was particularly attentive to our dog's dietary needs and was tolerant of his barking. For these reasons I will definitely go back to her when we need a dog sitter!

Best dog sitter EVER!!! Rebecca started sending photos of LuLu within minutes of us dropping her off, and she continued sending pictures during the entire pet sit. We could see that LuLu was being well cared for and was getting loads of attention. I don't think Rebecca was able to get anything done for herself because she devoted so much time to LuLu! LuLu gets separation anxiety, but I don't have to worry about that now that I've found Rebecca. LuLu gets to have a vacation at Auntie Rebecca's place while we are having our vacation. We all have fun! Rebecca is responsible and attentive to every detail. She lives in a safe neighborhood and has a fully fenced yard. She never leaves LuLu unattended in the yard, and they spend hours outside every day. She spoiled her with attention, not food, which is important to me. I can't recommend Rebecca highly enough! If she is available when you need a dog sitter, do not hesitate to book with Rebecca.

McKenanne was absolutely amazing with our dog, Peaches! She sent the cutest pics and video during her stay and it was clear that Peaches was having a blast! I’d recommend her to anyone that’s looking for a kind and reliable dog sitter.

About: I love caring for dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I’m patient with dogs of all sizes and personalities and always follow feeding schedules, provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention so every dog feels at home. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week, including weekends. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I’m happy to work with different schedules and last-minute bookings whenever possible I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, I take dogs on regular walks for exercise, potty breaks, and fresh air. I also provide plenty of attention, playtime, and follow the pet’s normal feeding schedule and routines. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and at home while their owners are away.

Eve was fantastic with my nervous dog Howard and took great care of him and sent regular pics and updates to let me know he was doing well, and even took him for a few walks with her dogs. Her communication was great and her own dogs and cat were sweet and accepting of Howard too. Eve is very friendly and made me feel comfortable that Howard was safe with her. I'll recommend her and will use her services again myself!

I am always hesitant to leave my dogs at a kennel because of the thought of having them locked up in a kennel all day or getting sick from other dogs. I am so happy to have found Pam. Roscoe, my boxer, stayed with Pam during our beach vacation. I felt much more at ease on vacation knowing Roscoe was well taken care of and having a blast at her gorgeous home. I received updates with pictures each night. I would highly recommend her services for your dogs while you are away. From the adorable pictures of Roscoe taken by Pam while we were away, he made himself right at home. Thank you so much Pam!!

Selena was an 11th hour request and she accommodated me and my little ones with no issues at all. Selena kept all 3 of my dogs for 3.5 days and they enjoyed their time with her. She kept me posted with pictures and an update. She asked questions if she saw something odd and she let me know how they were doing. I would not have gone on vacation had I not felt comfortable with our first conversation where she told me that she allows the dogs to roam the house and be part of the family. ❤️ if you book with Selena, you can have peace of mind! I'll be booking with her again, no doubt!

About: I had lots of pets growing up and have my own furst born (Carmen) which has given me a ton of experience caring for animals. In our house, we love going to the dog park and taking long walks. My dog Carmen is very friendly and can’t wait to make a new pal! Whatever the needs of your dog are, I’m excited to learn how I can best care for them while they stay with us. I work from home every day which gives me a ton of flexibility to go for walks and hang at the dog park or make time for any other activity that your dog enjoys. I have a large one bedroom apartment with a private patio which will give your dog plenty of space to roam and play throughout the day.

About: Hi, I’m Cindy! I’m currently a nursing student and work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide your pet with plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I’ve been caring for animals for years. I started pet sitting in high school, worked at a pet resort, and have continued pet sitting because it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. I’ll also send plenty of photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I also have a friendly Cane Corso, so if your pup enjoys being around other dogs, supervised playtime is an option. If your dog prefers their own space, I’m happy to accommodate that as well. As a mom of three boys who absolutely love animals, our home is full of love and attention. Your pet will be treated with the same care and affection as our own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! Feel free to message me with any questions—I can’t wait to help care for your best friend. I work from home and am currently in nursing school, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide your pet with plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, or cuddle time, I’ll make sure your pet stays on their normal routine and receives lots of love and care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a friendly Cane Corso who gets along well with other dogs, but I can easily separate pets if that’s what makes everyone most comfortable. I keep a clean, safe environment and closely supervise all interactions. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you always know how your furry family member is doing.

Jody took great care of my dog, Hank. She was very thorough in getting to know him and very knowledgeable on introducing her dogs to him. I know he had a blast because he came home happy and tired. And the photos she sent of him while he was with her showed how much fun he was having too. If we are ever back in the area I will get her to dog sit him again!

Sofia is awesome! Right away you can tell she is a dog lover. She took great care of our dog- walked her and played with her, and sent us pictures and updates. Our pup can be slow to warm up to people, but we can see she clearly felt very safe and comfortable with Sofia.

FAQs for Boarding - Roanoke

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Roanoke on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 191 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Roanoke. About 91% 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 VA 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.
