“Donnie rocks! From our meet and greet, to boarding our German Shepherd for over a week, to picking him back up, it all went so awesome! Donnie gave us great feedback on what he observed, good and not so good, and how to work with him. He has a great set up for the dogs! We were relaxed the entire time. Will definitely always use him in the future.”


“I couldn't have for a better sitter. Julia was so communicative, sending frequent pictures and updates. Jake had such a good time and we trust Julia and her family to take care of him.”

“Reesi and Tanner made themselves right at home with Sindy and her family within a few minutes after arriving there. We were a bit concerned about how they might adjust in a new place with new people, but we soon discovered we didn't have to worry at all. We were able to leave them for the day and not worry about a thing. Sindy even sent us several pictures of them throughout the day to let us know they were safe and sound while we were able to enjoy our 4-year-old grandson's birthday party in another state. We highly recommend Sindy when you need someone to care for your pets while away!”

“Cherie had my two large dogs for a weekend. She has a nice, large fenced in yard so plenty of space for them to rome and sniff. She had supplied pics of them walking, playing and chillin' Grif and Cinn were happy to see me when I picked them up, but they still did go back for a few more moments to be in the yard. I would absolutely recommend Cherie for your doggies boarding. Grif and Cinn will be be returning there again for sure”

“Mercis was fantastic! Very responsible and communicative—she took amazing care of our dog and sent awesome photos! We will definitely be sending our dog to board with her again!”

“Fantastic sitter! Very responsible and straightforward. Communication was smooth and clear throughout the stay, and I appreciated getting daily photo updates. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in great hands. Highly recommend!”

“Krystyna and Sara were AMAZING. They took care of my 2 dogs for a long weekend when I had to go away for a family funeral. I was already anxious about leaving them with someone new and they went above and beyond. They sent pictures and messages throughout the day. One of my dogs was having a paw issue with his nail and they took care of him and all the needs that came along with it. I will be recommending them to everyone I know and will for sure book with them again!!”


“Definitely recommend Faith! This weekend was my dogs first stay and she put my mind at ease from the beginning. She was very responsive and sent many updates through the stay which was great! Even though it was Neelys first stay, faith made me feel so comfortable that he was in great hands.”

“Caty and her family are great. They treated Sagan like one of their own and developed a good bond with him. This was our first time leaving him with a sitter so he experienced a bit of separation anxiety but Caty and her family were very patient and helped him through it. Thank you for taking good care of our buddy.”

“Reliable, communicative, personable, and professional with each and every stay. We’ve been utilizing Karen’s dog sitting services for some time now and have complete trust in her! We highly recommend her services!”

“Kristina is very nice and was very accommodating about my dog's back problems, she took very good care of my pup. She'll definitely will be my first choice for sitting from now on.”

“Gabriel is excellent. My Leo is a Maltese, and Gabriel was very attentive to him. Gabriel kept me updated with photos and videos throughout Leo's stay. Furthermore, Gabriel was very reliable in responding to my texts, which gave me peace of mind. I recommend Gabriel 100%, and I would definitely book with him again.”

“Amazing rover. Her daughter is great with dogs and she gave lots of updates and pictures. She took the time to know my dog at drop off and make sure he felt safe. Would book again!”

“Stacey was so accommodating and fantastic watching our dog Monty!!! She sent cute pictures through out his trip, and he came back tired because he had so much fun playing!! 110 percent would recommend her. She’s amazing!”

“We have a 9 year old Lab and didn't want to board her in a kennel for a week as she is a rescue and can get pretty anxious around multiple other dogs/noisy environments, so I decided to try rover.com for the first time. We couldn't be more pleased with how it turned out. Diane and Mark took great care of Daisy and sent multiple updates while we were away which allowed us peace of mind on our vacation. Daisy seemed very comfortable in their home when we came to pick her up and Diane even sent her home with home-made peanut butter treats! We'll definitely be booking with Diane and Mark next time we need a sitter ☺️”
“This was our first experience using Rover and we struck gold with Vanessa. She was communicative and kept us updated on our pups while we were away. Our dogs can be a handful as one is VERY high energy, but she clearly knew what she was doing and they came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend her to watch your pups!”


“Allie was so happy to be with Darmaris. She was very patient and took Allie for many walks. We also receive many happy puppy pics of her stay. I would recommend her for any size dog. I will be using her again for up coming trips.”

The median cost per night for dog boarding in Salem is $62
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Salem
As always, Mikayla and Allen took wonderful care of our little girl, Ella. They are extremely conscientious and take their dog sitting responsibilities very seriously, and we always feel that Ella is in the best of care when she stays there. They also send us photos during her stays and she is obviously very happy there. We have left Ella there several times, and I would highly recommend them.

Nicole and her family provided exceptional care for our senior Golden, Mina! They were so thoughtful—even setting up rug "runways" on their floors to help Mina's mobility. Between the outdoor playtime, the constant snuggles from Nicole’s daughters, and the regular photo updates, we knew Mina was in the best hands. Even their dog Jack became a fast friend. If you want peace of mind and a family that treats your dog like their own, look no further!

Camila and Michael took excellent care of Kalei - she was happy and content when I picked her up. She has a slightly complicated feeding routine that they administered, so I appreciate the effort put in to keep her healthy. They sent photos and videos of her playing, snuggling, and sniffing on her walks, so I got a good overview of her time away. She even made friends with their cat, which was unexpected. I felt comfortable with the care they provided for her and would recommend!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Salem
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Salem on Rover is $55.5 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 3,552 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Salem. 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.
92% of Salem 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 Salem 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 Salem 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 Salem.
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 Salem 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 NH 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.
