Many many thanks to Joy and Dan! I was anxious leaving Winston with someone I did not know but right away they put me at ease. We had our meet and greet and Winston took to one of their children immediately. During Winston’s stay, Joy and Dan sent photo updates - Winston was having a great time and had settled in well. My only concern was that Winston was having so much fun he wouldn’t want to come back home! I cannot recommend Joy and Dan highly enough and will definitely rebook, pending their availability.

I can't imagine a better person to leave our Parker Boy with! Heather took the best care of our dog and sent pictures and videos to keep our minds at ease while we were apart from him. She made him feel like a part of the family and made sure to do whatever she could to make him comfortable. We would recommend Heather to anyone looking for a sitter for their furry friends!!

Bernice did an absolutely amazing job caring for my fur baby this past weekend! I was pretty nervous since he’s newly adopted, but she quickly put my mind at ease. Her communication was excellent—she sent daily pictures and kept us updated on how his day was going, which meant so much to me. It was clear he felt completely comfortable and at home—honestly, he didn’t even want to leave! Her fenced-in backyard was a huge bonus and gave him plenty of space to play safely. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Bernice is the only person we’ll be booking with going forward!

This was my first time using Sharon and all went well. She sent photos and videos of Lily and took Lily on frequent walks. She was quick to respond to my texts. I really appreciate Sharon’s responsible and professional nature. And when I picked up Lily at the end of her stay, Sharon gifted her a bag of treats and toys and a thank you note! I will definitely use Sharon again.

We are so glad we found Eleanor! As first time dog owners, it was really important to us to find someone we felt comfortable leaving our 7 month old Pomsky with, close to home in Northwest Indiana. After our initial meet & greet, I had full confidence that he would be taken great care of with her! We received updates during our trip with photos of our dog and his new “friends” who were staying there as well. We were truly able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was in good hands. We look forward to sending him back in the future!

Jesseeka was AMAZING! ❤️ This was our first time using Rover so we were unsure what to expect. Our boy Bryant had a great time playing and snuggling. She communicated regularly and sent pictures. He came home happy and with a cute new bandana. We will definitely book again!

He’s amazing. He took care of my 3 dogs. He has a loving family. He treated my dogs like they were his very own. He has a very easy manner about himself. He answered any question I may of had. He continuously sent me photos of the dogs. There’s so much I can say about him, but I don’t feel that I have enough words to do so. I would definitely have my dogs be with him again if I ever need to go anywhere.

April was amazing with Korra! She had such a fun time and was clearly so loved during her stay. We got pictures and updates everyday. Again, could clearly see how much fun she was having! This was Korra first 4th of July as well, so we weren’t sure how she was going to react to the fireworks. April did an amazing job at letting us know what she had planned and how she was going to create a safe and calm environment for the dogs. We got pictures and updates on how she was doing/did. I am so glad Korra spent her first fireworks season with April. She was so well cared for. I could not recommend April more. She has so much love and care for her own dogs that she shares with other dogs. Korra is so happy to be apart of Petey’s and Shawna’s friend group!

We were nervous leaving our pupper with anyone overnight, but Monica and Dan were just wonderful! The pictures and messages they sent while we were on vacation reassured us and let us know how much they enjoyed watching Maddie. I think she will miss them now that she is home! We recommend them 1000%!

Sheree was a great dog sitter while we were out of town. She kept us informed of everything via texts, pictures, and videos. It was very calming knowing that our pup was in good hands while we were out of town. I highly recommend her services if you need an experienced dog sitter! She is absolutely phenomenal

Barbara took wonderful care of Daisy on the worst possible weekend: 4th of July. Daisy is terribly afraid of fireworks, but Barbara kept her calm and cared for her perfectly. Barbara sent updates with pictures, and our minds were completely at ease.

I was in from out of town and Eleanor took wonderful care of my two dogs. They had a big, secure, fenced outdoor space. It was clear that Eleanor and her husband had a passion for pups and were very knowledgeable. I would trust them with my dogs anytime!

FAQs for Boarding - Saint John

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Saint John on Rover is $46.01 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 2,194 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Saint John. 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.

95% of Saint John 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 Saint John 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 Saint John 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 Saint John.

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 Saint John 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 IN 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.
