“Christopher and Angela were excellent! We were gone a week out of country and everyday we received several photos, videos and updates. I started getting excited for my phone to buzz with new pictures of their activities! It felt like pups had gone to summer camp because I think they were having as much fun as I was. All in all,they made me feel like my pups were their number 1 priority. I would highly recommend them! I would give them 6 stars if I could! :)”
“We had such an amazing first Rover experience with Britney and truly could not have asked for a better person to care for our two female German Shepherds. From the very beginning, she was incredibly friendly, responsive, and communicative, which immediately helped ease a lot of the anxiety that comes with leaving your dogs with someone new. She kept us updated daily with pictures and videos of our girls playing, being goofy, relaxing, and genuinely looking comfortable and happy in her home. Those updates meant so much to us and gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Britney was also very upfront and honest with any questions or observations regarding the dogs and was always open to suggestions that could help them settle in more comfortably. One of the biggest things we appreciated was her experience with German Shepherds. You can absolutely tell she understands the breed and their personalities, energy levels, and needs since she previously owned one herself. She had toys available, a great environment for them, and also boarded only our girls without other dogs during their stay, which made us feel even more comfortable and helped reduce stress for them. She also gave us thoughtful feedback, training tips, and helpful suggestions that we genuinely appreciated as first-time Rover users and German Shepherd owners still learning along the way. It never felt judgmental, just supportive and caring. Overall, Britney went above and beyond for our girls, and we are so grateful for the care, patience, and attention she gave them. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, experienced, and genuinely caring for their pets.☺️🐾🩷”
“Lulu is always happy and well cared for when she stays with Susie. She is treated like family. I don't have to worry about her when I'm away on travel. Highly recommended.”
“Dottie has a great "puppy playhouse" and our Hazel was pampered and well cared for. This was Hazel's first time and she was relaxed and happy when I picked her up. Really appreciated the daily photo updates on how her stay was going. That was very reassuring. Hazel will be returning for another stay this summer and I highly recommend Dottie!”
“I boarded my doggies for the first time and was nervous, but Kristopher made it so easy . He was so kind and made me feel comfortable leaving my dogs with him . Knowing my pets were safe and in good care made my trip a lot easier . I would definitely leave my dogs in his care again. Thank you Kristopher 🤗”
“Peter is so great! My senior dog had an excellent experience hanging out at Peter's house, sleeping and lounging wherever she wanted, and generally being treated as the princess that she is. We would definitely book with Peter again!”
“Liz provided a great boarding experience for our 7 month old German Shepard "Leo". This was Leo's first overnight boarding experience and Liz was very attentive to his adjustment to the other dogs and overall experience. Leo arrived home happy and relaxed. We will definitely board with Liz again.”
“Joshua and Leah were wonderful! It was my first time having Brutus babysat by them, and from the meet‑and‑greet to pick‑up, he took a real liking to them. Charolette was such a sweet pup‑pal, even with Brutus being the older guy. I really appreciate that they only sit one dog at a time, stay communicative, and tailor the best plan for you and your pup. Brutus has been the most calm on pick-up with these two. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you so much! ☺️”
“I was really uncomfortable leaving gracie with anyone, she is almost 2 and has never been left. My daughter had used Tara in the past and suggested I check Tara out as she was really pleased with her. So I did. I took Gracie to Tara she as there 6 days. Tara commented well with me, sent several pictures. Tara just makes you feel very confident your pet is in good hands. I would recommend Tara to anyone looking for a sitter for their pets. I would take Gracie back to Tara without any hesitation. I really appreciate and respect Tara.”
“Katie took great care of our pup, provided regular updates, and was graciously flexible about pickup and drop-off as our travel plans shifted. Very much appreciated her help while we were out of town!”
“Oscar had a great time with Kimberly and her kids. He was well taken care of and Kimberly shared photos of Oscar and her dog Coco having a good time together. Wouldn't hesitate to book with her again in the future. Thank you, Kimberly!”
“Andrea was great! Upon meeting her I instantly felt comfortable and confident that she would be wonderful to take care of my dog River. She loves your pet like it is her own. My dog came back to me happy and tired! She is communicative, sends photos and gave our golden retriever walks. I could tell by pictures she sent that River felt at home with her.”
“Jean has a great sense of compassion and understanding toward dogs and their owners. She kept us informed throughout the boarding and we had a wonderful experience. Look forward to utilizing Jean for future dog boarding.”
“Jessica took such great care of PB while we were away! I can tell she kept him busy and active by how sleepy he’s been since coming home. He’s one happy guy, and it’s clear he had a great time with her!”
“Jalyssa and her daughter were fantastic! Our dog is slightly on the more anxious side and likes company. Jalyssa and her daughter not only made sure that she had had company but also played with her. And I also appreciated the daily updates. So glad we found a safe place for our pup.”
“Nancy was absolutely amazing! This was our first time leaving our girl with anyone so we were very nervous on how it would go! Nancy was so reassuring that Paisley would do well. She sent us pictures to keep us updated on how she was doing. Paisley came home one happy girl! We are so thankful to have found Nancy and highly recommend her!! We will definitely use her in the future!”
“Maria was a perfect sitter for our pup; daily walks, lots of love and patience, photos sent to us daily. We will definitely book with Maria again if we are going to be away. I feel as though I've found a friend and I know our dog shares that view.”
“Stephanie took such wonderful care of Jax over the weekend! She kept me updated with photos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was clear he was having the best time. Her backyard is truly a dream for dogs—plenty of space to run and play—and Jax loved having other dog friends to spend time with. Stephanie is always responsive, thoughtful, and you can genuinely feel how much she loves animals. I knew Jax was in great hands the entire time. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her—she’ll love your pet like her own.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sherwood
We could not have asked for a better home to board our fur babies (dog and a cat). Xanthia is so good with animals and really understands what all is needed to ease the pets into a new environment. Plus kiddos are lovely, they love animals and show great affection towards them.
We really struggle to leave our dogs when we go on vacation but Siru provided so much love and care to our pup! He was incredibly well looked after, with plenty of walks, cuddles, and fun! We were provided with regular updates which made being away so much easier. We will definitely use Siru’s services again when we travel next!
We couldn’t be more grateful to Christopher and Angela for the incredible care they gave Olive. From the very beginning, we felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such loving hands. They took wonderful care of her, but what meant the most to us was how much they genuinely loved her and made her feel like part of their family. A very special mention has to go to their daughter, Emily. Olive absolutely adores all three of them! There is such a difference between finding someone who will simply take good care of your dog and finding people who will truly love her while you’re away. Christopher, Angela, and Emily gave us that, and it means more to us than we can say. We would trust Olive with them again in a heartbeat.
Alexis and her kiddos showed my lil doggo so much love and grace. She cared for my pup in the second week of July, when there was still fireworks going off. My dog is super anxious with loud noises, but Alexis had the confidence and experience to comfort my dog while I was away. She sent loads of updates and assured me that my dog was getting very attentive care. Would rebook in a heartbeat!
Renee was fantastic with Honey. She sent us updates on how Honey was doing, especially because it was her first time spending the night over at Renee’s house. Honey was comfortable with her and did amazing. Thank you so much Renee for watching our furry baby while we traveled. I recommend Renee and will book her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Sherwood is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $67 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 2,420 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.
94% 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.
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 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 OR 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.
