“I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog with Jayne and her family! He seemed happy when we left, and happy when we picked him up. I really appreciated the pics and updates Jayne sent. I highly recommend her!”
“I’m so glad we booked Fritz’s first boarding with Larysa. Since he’s still young, we were nervous about leaving him, even for a day, but Larysa made the experience great for him and us. We had to book a last minute boarding, but she was super accommodating and kind about it. She kept us updated with photos the whole time, and we could see Fritz was really being loved and cared for. By the time we picked him up, he was super comfortable there and seemed to absolutely love Larysa’s sweet older dog, Carter! We have another trip coming up soon, and we will definitely be booking with Larysa again. Highly recommend you book with Larysa for boarding with your doggies!”
“Melissa‘s kindness, sincerity, and genuine warmth shine through from the moment you meet her. Her home has that same welcoming energy –comfortable safe and full of thoughtful touches. The meat-and-greet Melissa offered before the stay was generous and reassuring, and Copper, her pup, was the perfect host - basically the mayor of hospitality town! He welcomed Peanut like an old friend and immediately showed her around. Melissa was flexible, thoughtful, and attentive, and she sent photos and videos throughout Peanut’s stay that absolutely made my day. Peanut came home ready for a nap, content, and clearly well-cared for - the Holy Trinity of a perfect pup vacation! Copper even taught Peanut how to go down the stairs, which definitely deserves its own merit badge. I am grateful for people like Melissa who create a safe, honest, and welcoming space for visiting pups. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, trustworthy, and genuinely caring home for their dog. You almost want to ask if she offers human boarding too. Melissa is agem – five stars, many tail wags, and a standing ovation from Peanut.”
“Jamie was amazing with our dogs. Took great care of them, kept us updated on how they were doing and sent pics which helped give us piece of mind. Loved knowing they were in good hands.”
“This was my first time using Rover and/or boarding our cat. Maria was so kind and thoughtful with answering all my questions and giving updates! Every picture she sent really showed how comfortable my cat was getting and that she was making sure to give him love and attention. We would absolutely use her again and recommend her to anyone.”
“Zach has watched our highly anxious dog twice now and he has done such a great job both times!! We can enjoy our vacations knowing our dog is in such great hands with Zach!”
“Sophie and her dog Ginny were absolutely fantastic! Our dog Copper loved spending time at their home. We will definitely use Sophie again! I highly recommend you use her as well!”
“Christina was an absolute life saver! I was in town for a wedding and had her booked for 9a Saturday to 9a Sunday. The trip turned out to be a little too stressful on my pups and without hesitation she helped and took them for Friday overnight as well. She kept me informed of how they were doing through texts, videos and pictures. It was such a relief to see that they were being well cared for and loved! She spoiled them!! My Chihuahua has weight issues which has led him to have really bad and painful knees. She sent me a video of her and her daughters on a walk and pulling my Benny in a wagon!! So sweet! I can’t say enough good things about my experience with her! AMAZING!!!”
“Casandra did an AMAZING job handling our dogs for the weekend while we got to enjoy a vacation in another state! This was our first experience using Rover and I have already recommended Rover and Casandra to our family and friends! A+++ Thank you!”
About: I have 2 dogs and have raised/rescued 12 in my life. I have well trained dogs including one that is blind that I trained. Your dogs will have free reign in or out of the house while on the premises. Milk Bones, Ice Water and squirrels to chase. I am Retired, make my own schedule and can accommodate very early morning or weekend drop offs. Your dogs are allowed on the bed, couch or wherever they want. I have a fully fenced yard and two of my 3 neighbors have no pets. I spend most of my free time at home with my two friendly (1 blind) larger dogs that like playing with other dogs.
“Couldn't be happier with Heather. My dogs were totally comfortable with her and her dog right away and had such a good time running around her huge yard. Will definitely be booking Heather again and I absolutely recommend.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful! She was so friendly and communicative about when she would check in, and she sent photos to update us. She gave our fur babies lots of attention and love. We will absolutely ask her to cat-sit again if we need to! Thanks again, Lizzie!”
“Morgan was great with our little granny, Daisy. Communication was great and I have no doubt that she paid alot of attention to our little doggie. Daisy was well rested, calm amd happy when I picked her up. We will use Morgan again 100%!”
“Justin and his family did an awesome job taking care of Mr. Wiggins while we were gone! Good communication and care, he was so relaxed when we picked him up, so we could tell he loved staying with his new friends. Thanks to all of you, from Wiggy!”

This was our second time booking Ashley, and she took great care of Sheik and Bogart again! We love the daily updates and pictures. They gave us real peace of mind and made being away a lot easier. Both of them were happy and relaxed when we got home. Thanks again!
This is my second time boarding with Larysa, and I highly recommend her! She makes the entire process so easy, communicates great, and sends lots of photos and videos. It gives you such peace of mind knowing your pet is being well cared for while you’re away. I would definitely book with her again! 😊
Tiffany is incredibly. She was patient with my anxiety about leaving my senior dog with her and her family over the holidays. She was generous in her time with me and Tom in getting comfortable with his upcoming stay. Tom came home rested and well fed which NEVER happened when he stayed at a kennel. Tom can not wait for his next play date.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Sioux Falls is $41 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 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 of October 2026, there are 150 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Sioux Falls. 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.
95% of sitters in Sioux Falls 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 Sioux Falls 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 Sioux Falls.
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 Sioux Falls 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 SD 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.
