“They have been absolutely amazing with Eleven. I don’t think we’ve ever had a dog sitter take such good care of her and give her what she needs . We truly hit gold when we last minute found Betsie and her husband. They update us with videos and photos. Whenever we work in Ardmore,I can feel safe and secure leaving her in such good care. Highly recommend”
“Truly appreciative of them taking care of my fur babies…took pics of them everyday and keep me informed of how they were doing…definitely would recommend 😊”
“I can’t thank Asia enough for the amazing care she gave my dog. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease. Rambo can be a bit much at first, but Asia went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and at home. She kept me updated with daily photos and messages, showing Rambo relaxing, playing, and getting lots of love. It was clear he wasn’t just being watched—he was being cared for like family. She even noticed his food was getting low and made sure he was still fed, and took the extra time to keep up with his routine. When I picked Rambo up, he was calm, happy, and clearly well-loved. It honestly felt like he had been on a mini vacation of his own. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with him again with her family—they are reliable, and very kind. Highly recommend 10/10!”
“Amber was great. She gave daily updates on how my dog was doing. She had a big backyard for him to run around. I would definitely recommend her for your dog boarding needs.”
“Gail was excellent! The love she has for animals is so vibrant and she took great care of my Baxter. She kept me updated as needed and made him feel right at home. I would most definitely recommend if you want someone that will treat them like their own!”
“The best dog sitters and people for the job. They took such good care of my sweet Oliver and gave me updates. I appreciate it beyond words. The best of the best!!! Literally!”
“Scout was great at keeping us updated daily and sending pics. Having her keep our two small dogs was a much better option than boarding them at a kennel. Also, with Scout’s background, I felt comfortable in knowing that my lil girls were in good hands.”
“Jill has found a second home! We love Miss Rhonda. My husband took Jill to Rhonda's for a pre-stay visit. When it was time, it was a simple drop off and pick up. Her fur babies are so sweet. Rhonda sent several pictures of Jill making herself right at home. We highly recommend Rhonda! We will be back!!! We will send family members to Rover.com and Rhonda!!!”
“We were so happy we found Jackie for our guy. This was our first time leaving Bean behind and we were anxious. Jackie took the time to pre-meet us and allowed us to see the interaction between the two. He then showed us his home backyard and family. He asked for notes, especially since being is on meds and any special needs Bean might have every day he sent us messages and pictures of Bean . Jackie is Bean’s friend. He became familiar with his ways, Bathroom behaviors and his insecurities, especially during the crazy weather if you need somebody loving and caring of your best friend, please reach out to Jackie. We are glad we did. Thanks, Traci”
“Salma was so great sweet with our pup and so easy to work with .She was kind and patient when we needed her to be. She sent us multiple pictures, daily during a long stay. We will definitely rebook if in the area again.”
“Hannah was amazing! She took great care of my Darcy and sent lots of pictures and updates. Darcy looked right at home with the other dogs & at her house. Darcy will definitely stay back over soon! 🐶”
“Very good experience. My dog can’t talk but, looks like he enjoyed it at her place. Very well informed about him so, we didn’t have to worry much. This was my first time leaving him with a sitter. I always used boarding facilities. I think this is better for him instead of sitting in a kennel all the time. I would definitely go to her again if we need.”
“We were very happy with Chewie’s care during our trip. Vita took him on daily walks & gave him all the snuggles. She sent us picture and video updates each day, which we really appreciated! We would use her services again.”
“Great care of my dog! Always responsive and updates regularly. Took care of an unexpected incident with such great care and attention. I trust Madi every time!”
“Courtney was a wonderful sitter for our dog! I think Flossie felt right at home and had plenty of space and time to run around and get her energy out and also snuggle.”
About: I’ve had had the privilege of caring for many creatures across my life (dogs, cats, praying mantises, spiders…) and would love to help you care for yours! I have two wonderful dogs: Ozzie and Lily. They keep me on a strict schedule for activity time (walks, playing, etc) and feeding. Trust me, they’ve trained me well! I also grew up with two cocker spaniels, Droopy and Floppy, and a German shepherd-beagle mix, Scooby. Every dog has so much character and it’s an absolute joy to learn their unique personalities! My work schedule tends to vary weekly and I can start as early as 9am and leave as late as 9pm, but I am generally available everyday to play with your critters! We can discuss times before booking. I am also a college student with class on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. I care for pets based on their individual needs with insight from their owners. For example, I can trust my dog Lily to behave herself home alone, but with Ozzie, I know I have to provide him a spacious kennel to prevent him from getting anxious and chewing up the carpet. Regardless, I provide them lots of love, playtime, and outside time whether it be a walk or a potty trip. I have a fenced backyard personally and my dogs (and even my cat with supervision) love to spend time out there.
“My dog had a blast with Alesha! I would definitely recommend Alesha to others. She was helpful and informative, but also allowed me to enjoy my vacation without anxiety over my dog.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Sherwood is $35
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sherwood
Have found my reliable Rover home for Harley! William and Natalie communicate effectively and consistently, they provide ample opportunity to feel like your pet is going to a safe home and they ask questions to make sure they get it right. They have a big backyard which any dog would love but walks and hikes are still included nonetheless! Every time I pick up Harley from their house I feel like he had an opportunity to practice some social skills with their dog, and that makes me feel good about my own dog’s growth. They really make an effort to help Harley feel comfortable in their home; their love for pets is pretty evident.
Rhonda was absolutely amazing watching my pup! Partway through the stay, my little girl had an allergic reaction to a bug bite, and Rhonda handled it perfectly — she noticed it right away, stayed on top of it, and kept me constantly in the loop with updates, pictures, and videos so I could see exactly how she was doing throughout the whole thing. Her communication was outstanding; I never once felt anxious or out of the loop, which means a lot when you're away from your pet. She took such attentive, loving care of my pup and got the swelling down quickly and safely. Beyond just handling that situation well, it's clear Rhonda genuinely cares about the animals she watches — you can tell in how attentive and proactive she is. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable pet sitter, and I already have plans to book her again for my pup very soon.
Katie and her family took wonderful care of our dog, Molly. Katie communicates well, answering questions promptly and posting pictures. She was delightful to get to know and I didn’t have a moment’s worry about Molly while we were traveling. She goes out of her way to create a great experience!
Johnnie was wonderful with our dog, Dolly! He was very accommodating with drop-off, super friendly, and kept a clean, organized home. He even took great care of her when it snowed and sent pictures and videos to keep us updated. He was easy to reach and so helpful when it was time to pick her up. We felt completely comfortable leaving Dolly with him and would 100% recommend Johnnie to anyone.
They have been absolutely amazing with Eleven. I don’t think we’ve ever had a dog sitter take such good care of her and give her what she needs . We truly hit gold when we last minute found Betsie and her husband. They update us with videos and photos. Whenever we work in Ardmore,I can feel safe and secure leaving her in such good care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Sherwood is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 205 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Sherwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
98% of sitters in Sherwood can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Sherwood home-away-from-home, 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 Sherwood.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Sherwood 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 , 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 .
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 AR 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.
