“Robb and his children did a fantastic job taking care of Lilly. She got plenty of exercise and lots of cuddles. Robb was very communicative. He sent pictures and updates every day. I felt better leaving her knowing she was being cared for so well!”

“Taylee and her family took such special care of our girls! She provided pictures and updates regularly. The girls stayed with her for a little less than a week and I would surely recommend using her again!”

“Lindsey took such great care of our nervous, anxious poodle while we were out of town. Our travel plans changed a bit and she was very flexible. She communicated with us about how our dog was doing and sent pictures and videos, which we really appreciated. She gave our dog the love and cuddles she needed to feel comfortable in a new environment.”

“I loved communicating with Mark and Corrie from the beginning. They have built their home for this kind of dog loving business and it totally rocks. We'll be returning customers.”

“I cannot recommend Stephanie enough! She did a fantastic job with Brewtus, treating him like one of her own. Brewtus had an amazing time, including a fun hike that he absolutely loved. It's clear that Stephanie and there family has a special touch with dogs, as Brewtus felt right at home and looked like he was part of the family. This is definitely one of his favorite places to stay now. I highly recommend Stephanie for any dog owner looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Kara is the best! Our dog loves to be with her and play with her kids! We have used her for a few years now, and love her personalized care toward us and our doggy.”

“I have a dog with a lot of separation anxiety, but he did just fine with Courtney. When I picked him up after his stay, he was happy and excited to see me (as opposed to his normal shaking and shrieking after a kennel stay). Courtney was happy to send me updates while we were gone. I will definitely use her in the future.”

“I appreciate Dana and her family for taking care of my dog, Lilo. He had so much fun at their place, perfect for energetic dog like mine 😊 I will definitely book her again 😇”


“Ollie is a regular at Crystals by now. They truly love him and are excited to see them when we drop him off. It’s hard to leave him through the holidays and for trips but I never have to worry that he’s in good hands. He comes home so tired from playing so hard, he loves the other dogs there, and he always comes back bathed and clean and ready to snuggle. Thanks crystal and husband for taking good care of my pup!!!”
“Tammy and family were great! Very responsive communicators, the dogs seemed to have a great time, and they were exhausted when they came home. Pretty much everything you could ask for.”

“Avery took such great care of our dog and was so easy to work with. She sent us pictures and updates every day, responded to messages quickly and was easy to communicate with. We’ll definitely use her again.”

“Maddie and Sam make your dog feel right at home, they send a ton of updates with cute pictures and make sure your dog feels like it is their second home. They are our go to now!”

“From the moment we dropped our dog off, we felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. We received updates and photos daily. Definitely will use Chelsey again to board our dog. Great experience!!”

“Alexus was wonderful with our dog while we were away for a couple of nights. She sent picture updates, took her on walks every day, and truly treated her like a member of the family. We had a completely worry free experience with no issues at all. We would absolutely book with Alexus again and highly recommend her!”

“We were super nervous to leave our 6 month Dalmatian for the first time, but Andee was amazing right from the get go! Andee helped ease our worries before we even dropped our puppy off! She was amazing about sending updates and pictures the entire time! Would 100% recommend and would definitely have her watch our guy again!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Salem
Wish I could give more stars!⭐️ Nicole is flexible, personable and Mango forgot about us about 2 seconds after we got there! Her children are sweet, and loving and I’m sure were a big part of Mango’s happy experience. I loved her friendly little dog pack and mango loved joining her pack for the day. She was happy and non-punishing😂 when we picked her up which was a first for us. She was EXHAUSTED the whole next day. My husband joked that our little princess might need a day with Nicole at least once a month whether we go on vacation or not! 😂 She absolutely loved running around and checking on the cows and being on the farm. We will use Nicole again and again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Salem on Rover is $39.96 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 652 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.
98% 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 UT 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.
