“Our yorkie, Tucker, had a wonderful stay with Stacie and her family. I received texts and photos every day to let us know how he was doing. Stacie provided immediate responses to my texts. Tucker got so much special attention. I would recommend Stacie to anyone needing pet care ❤️.”

“My Aussidoodle is high energy and needs room to run. I chose Kelly for the large fenced in yard, but got the bonus of her family giving so much love and great care! Kelly sent daily pictures and let me know that the family really liked my sweet boy and enjoyed cuddles with him. I couldn't have asked for a better experience for Willie.”

“Both our senior dog with medical needs and our younger dog LOVE to visit Christina! They happily walk in when we drop off which is a big change from previous boarding places. So glad we found Christina! It is such a weight off our shoulders when traveling knowing that our dogs are comfortable and in good hands.”

“Adela took amazing care of my dog Sammy during his 6‑day stay. She sent daily photo updates that gave me so much peace of mind while I was on vacation. She also paid close attention to his behavior and let me know about some anxiety signs she noticed, which will really help me prepare him for future stays in other homes. She even went above and beyond by picking Sammy up so I could finish loading my car—such a thoughtful gesture. I could tell from his photos and his happy, relaxed demeanor when I picked him up that he felt comfortable and loved in her home. Her whole family did a wonderful job caring for him. Highly recommend Adela. If they will have him Sammy will definitely be visiting again.”

“We had a great experience leaving our Aussidoodle, Willie, with Cynthia and her sweet lab, Luna. I received numerous pictures and was happy to know Willie had a very large, fenced in yard for roaming and exercise. Cynthia treated Willie like her own and gave positive feedback about his stay. I won't hesitate to request Cynthia for future boarding.”

We couldn’t be more pleased with the way she cared for Maizy. In fact, Maizy seemed a bit sad to leave which means she absolutely loved her time with Ashley and family. Thank you so much!”

“This entire process was new to us and we were worried about leaving our baby boy with an unknown stranger. Erin was willing to talk and answer any questions I had prior to dropping champ off. She's extremely kind and is the best dog sitter around. She took great care of champ and loved on him just like he was her own. Champ stayed with her for a whole week and throughout his stay she consistently sent pictures and he looked so happy and relaxed in her home. He became best friends with her little guy and they would cuddle at night together . Erin is fantastic and we will continue to use her anytime we go out of town.”

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Staunton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Staunton on Rover is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $42 per night. 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 154 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Staunton. 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.

100% of sitters in Staunton 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 Staunton 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 Staunton.

<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 Staunton 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 IL 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.
