“Jayne and her family were great. They cared for our puppy for 5 days while we were on vacation. He had a great time playing with their dogs. Jayne sent video and picture updates every day. I felt very comfortable leaving our puppy with them, you could tell they liked him and cared for him well. Thank you Jayne & family.”
“Krysten was a life saver for me and my recently adopted girl. I had a last minute work schedule change and had to leave town and Krysten was able to take Princess in under a 24 hours notice for an overnight stay. She sent pictures and updates regularly and my girl came back happy as ever. I definitely will be booking again for future needs! Thanks so much for treating my four legged child as one of your own :)”
“The dogs seemed so cozy in this home! Great communication from the sitter. We had no issues whatsoever. Very thankful that they had a comfortable place to stay while we were away!”
“Thank you so much for letting Lillie hang out with you while we were in town! Paige is great at communicating and so sweet, she took great care of our senior dog while we were visiting from out of state! We got pictures and updates throughout the day which was so appreciated.”
“We are so happy we had Larysa watch our dog Millie while we were out of town! She treated our pup like one of her own and sent us lots of updates so we felt at ease that she was in great hands. We will definitely use Larysa again and Millie will be so excited to go back!”
“Tracy was great to work with, very compassionate about her duty as a sitter and made Hank feel loved and appreciated!! I also appreciated that she was understanding about me being late for pickup as I am just getting settled into a new environment. I hope and look forward to using her again in the future!! Her darling Stella who is as well a Yorkie was just a cute girl. We loved Tracy!”
“Lauren and her family were awesome! Super flexible, great communication, and easy to work with. Our dogs came home happy and exhausted from all the fun. Would definitely go to them again with future needs. Thank you!”
“Melissa has completely gained my confidence as someone who will care as well for my dogs as well as I would myself. I could tell from the pictures and videos she shared during their stay that they were having a very positive experience. I feel fortunate to have found such a caring and competent sitter!”
“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 did an amazing job taking care of Kalani! She sent regular updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind knowing Kalani was happy, well cared for, and enjoying her own vacation while I enjoyed mine. Booking was easy, and Jamie was flexible with both drop-off and pick-up. Kalani came home happy and completely exhausted from all the fun and playtime. I would absolutely trust Jamie with Kalani again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!”
“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.”
“Nichole and her sons Jackson and William were awesome!! Buddy loved them.. they sent pictures and videos of them playing and napping and running in their huge yard several times throughout the 2 1/2 wks watching him! He was treated so well we were afraid he wouldn’t want to come home 😜 We were so grateful for the great care! They are a great family with a great home! Thanx so much!”
“Our girls were so happy staying with Josie! I loved getting daily updates and seeing how much they got to play outside and see their big smiles playing with Josie’s dog. Josie was very understanding and had great communication when we had to make some last minute changes to the beginning of their stay. We are so thankful for Josie!”
“Shayla took excellent care of my dog, Sadie. She has a beautiful big fenced yard where Sadie and her dog played together. Every day, Shayla sent me texts with pictures and an explanation of how Sadie was doing. That was very thoughtful of her. I know Sadie will love to go back there again.”

I would love to spend time with your fur kiddos while you are away. I work a full time 8hr job (not Rover) Monday-Thursday, however I’m still happy to watch pups during these days. I am currently able to offer boarding in my home for dogs that are comfortable around both dogs and cats. When I visit your home I will be clean and tidy and clean up any messes that are needed

I highly recommend Krysten as a pet sitter! I booked her through Rover to care for my dog at her home while I was away with family on vacation, and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Krysten was professional, caring, and dependable, which gave ME great peace of mind while I was away. My dog was well cared for and came home happy. I truly appreciated the excellent care and would definitely book with Krysten again!
We left our dog and cat for about 4 days for a vacation out of town, and when we got back, they seemed to miss the sitter more than they missed us. 5 Stars! We received daily updates about their care along with photos of our babies. Ashley was wonderful caring for them, giving us peace of mind while we enjoyed our vacation. We are already considering booking again for our next trip!
Thank you so much for letting Lillie hang out with you while we were in town! Paige is great at communicating and so sweet, she took great care of our senior dog while we were visiting from out of state! We got pictures and updates throughout the day which was so appreciated.
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 for Dog Boarding in Sioux Falls 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 152 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 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Sioux Falls 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 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 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 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.
