“Thank you, Karen, for taking such good care of Marley! You are so easy to work with and flexible with scheduling. The accommodations were so “ homey” it was like she was in her own home. She enjoyed Guinness, your dog, it’s good she had another dog to play with. Thank you, again!!”
“Anne was amazing! So attentive and took in mind my dogs usual routine- and took extra great care of her! I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her and would definitely recommend her.”
“Dogs came home happy and well balanced! Clearly they had been well cared for and given the proper amount of exercise. Kexin and Carlos sent lots of pictures and videos giving me a lot of confidence and comfort in knowing that selecting them was the right choice! My dogs loved their large, fenced in backyard! My 2 dogs got along beautifully with their dog and cats. They even added some healthy supplements to my dogs’ food that they add to their dog’s food! Will be using them again soon!”
“Sarah was exceptional, and I honestly wish I could give more than 5 stars! From the moment we met, it was clear that she is experienced, professional, and genuinely cares. She was very responsive throughout Sia’s stay and kept me updated, which gave me great peace of mind.Rex was also such a sweet and welcoming companion, and Sia clearly enjoyed spending time there. I could tell right away that Sia was in great hands, and when I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“We had a wonderful stay with Keasha and her son, she kept us updated on how our pup was getting on and he seemed to settle in with them with ease. Would highly recommend!”
“I was really impressed with Misael. We left our dog, Cindel, with him for the first time we’ve been away from her for a decent length of time. He gave us updates just about daily, including pictures. He informed us of things he noticed about her mannerisms and all her little quirks, and how she was getting along with other dogs and the household. I would definitely recommend him.”
“What a fantastic pet sitter! She sent updates and pics during our time away assuring us that Yoshi was doing great. She even gave us a goody bag when we picked Yoshi up. We will definitely be using Alyssa again!”
“Heather, My experience with you was nothing short of amazing for both my dog, Sawyer, and myself. Even before booking, you showed a genuine interest in learning all about Sawyer. It was clear that you not only love dogs but truly wanted to make him feel welcome in your home. You provided a dog-friendly environment and kept me well-informed with regular updates and photos through the Rover app. Thank you for taking such great care of him. He’s really looking forward to his next visit with you. BTW, he enjoyed the rest of his Birthday Cupcake! Warm regards, Brian”

“Matthew took such excellent care of my dog over the weekend, he was attentive and gentle and gave my dog his all the medications that he needed. His love for cavaliers is a plus and I felt at ease leaving my dog under his care. I would easily recommend him for anyone who is looking for a dog sitter.”

“Dogs were in heaven, they look happy and relaxed when we pick them up. Thanks to Erica and her family for the amounts of love and attention given to our beloved pups. Thanks for the constant updates and pictures shared with us from them. We absolutely love Erica and her family and plans to book pet sitter again with them soon. They are the best addition to our family !!!”
About: I am very experienced of Feeding, Giving medication and most of all giving love and attention to them. Especially while there loved ones are away! I am a senior retired from the post office and I am open to all hours. Would be great to get up and walk your pet. I do not have a fenced in area but plenty of woods where we can travel on a harness or leash so it would be secure
“Karen was a great choice when it came to boarding my beloved little friend. It was my first time using Rover or a boarder of any kind and Karen couldn't have made the experience better if they tried. They were very thorough throughout the initial meet and greet, had a great rapport with my dog, and were extremely communicative while I was away both providing updates and pictures everyday. I would definitely recommend Karen for anyone looking for a wonderful and worry free pet sitting experience!”
“This is the first time Mimi stayed with Ty and her family. Mimi seemed to settle in easily with the family. It is a bonus that she had the chance to spend time with Ty’s two children. All were kind and loving with her. I appreciated the daily updates and photos from Ty. Mimi is home sleeping on the sofa next to me. I would not hesitate to leave Mimi with Ty and her family, again.”
“Natasha was amazing, I was extremely on the edge as my stay was a longer stay.She ensured my dog was comfortable and followed up and provided daily updates.I will soon be rebooking. So glad I found her. Thanks a ton Natasha.”
“Kona had an amazing stay! We got updates all week and he was having a blast with all his new friends. I’m pretty sure while he was happy to have us home, he wouldn’t have complained if he had to stay a little longer ha!”
“This was Salgari’s second stay with Anely. It had been 3 months since his previous stay, but Salgari remembered her, and was really excited to see her! Anely was again amazing, constantly sending photos and updates. In all of the photos Salgari’s tail was a blur because of how much he was wagging his tail! He had a great time during his stay and I could relax and focus during my trip. All around amazing experience! Mil gracias Anely!”
“Jessica was AMAZING with Rondo! She is super flexible with scheduling, pick up and drop off which we are so thankful for. It was our first time in a long time boarding our pup, but Jessica put us at ease when we met her and Abu at the meet and greet. They are both so sweet!! She provided us with updates and photos consistently and overall was an A+. Highly recommended her for all your boarding and pet sitting needs!!”
“Robert is wonderful—such a kind person. We left our dog with him for three days and could not have been happier. Every morning, he sent us a message about how Cookie was doing, along with a video. He took great care of her. Thank you so much, Robert! I trust him completely and will absolutely leave Cookie with him again whenever we need to travel.”

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Smithfield
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Smithfield on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,368 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Smithfield. 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.
89% of Smithfield 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 Smithfield 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 Smithfield 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 Smithfield.
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 Smithfield 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 RI 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.
