“Angela was the perfect dog mom for our Skye. She adjusted to Skye's schedule and Skye learned how to make her needs known. Angela sent us daily photos and a few videos, so we could be assured that Skye was doing well. Skye will definitely be returning in the future.”
“I cannot say enough about Maria and Nayibe. I’m very selective about who I allow to care for my dog and I can 100% say that I made a good choice. Throughout the weekend, I received updates, pictures and video which really put my mind at ease. Thank you so much and I will be using them again!”
“Our doggo looked like she was living her best life! She had lots of play time, cuddle time, and was treated like part of the family. Mary was very communicative, sent lots of photos and updates, and is very kind. We will definitely be going back. Thank you!!”
“Scott and his family were amazing. The daily pictures and updates were something we looked forward to while we were on vacation. We were able to relax knowing they were in good hands and having the time of their lives. They came home so tired! Would 100% use them again.”
“Monique took excellent care of Juno. I was impressed with her updates and pictures. Juno can be a bit shy but she settled in great and made lots of dog friends during her stay. Monique was very responsive and wonderful to work with.”
“Mikaela & Shane cared for my Colby Jack for a week and were wonderful. I received daily updates and everything was very positive. Colby was very well cared for and was very happy. I had to extend the visit because I was delayed returning from my trip and they kept him for 2 additional days. I highly recommend them and would definitely use them in the future.”
“Sarah and her family provided constant updates of my dog throughout the week. Her daughters seemed really engaged and loving on my dog, making me feel confident she was receiving all the love and affection she gets at home. When I picked her up, my dog seemed so relaxed, almost as if she hadn’t been gone all that time, helping me feel confident she was safe and loved on. Usually after boarding in a facility, my dog is highly anxious, extra agitated and disheveled. None of that here with Sarah. Her and her family were truly the best sitters. I never worried once while away.”
“Jenifer did a great job watching our Cockapoo. He can be anxious at times but he felt right at home with her. Loved spending time with Jenifer on her deck over looking the lake.”
“My dog loved Jill! I was nervous because he sometimes doesn’t do well with strangers sometimes but meeting her he immediately warmed up and loved her. He definitely wanted to stay when I came back to pick her up. Jill was amazing! I definitely will book her again.”
“Mary did a wonderful job with our girls. She sent me photo updates and texts. Pups seemed very happy and healthy when we picked them up. Mary was patient with our shy smaller girl. Allowed cuddles and bedtime snuggles. So happy we found a loving home away from home for our girls.”
“Scott was a wonderful sitter to our dog, Phoebe. Excellent communication, professional, and friendly. He sent us a few pics while we were away to let us know how she was doing, which I especially appreciated. Definitely recommend Scott, and his cute dog Lucy, to anyone looking for a sitter and a playmate.”
“Yolanda was such a wonderful sitter! She provided pictures and updates everyday so we knew that our fur baby was well taken care of! We will definitely reach out to her again!!”
“I'm so happy we found Becky! My little dog has a few special instructions in his old age, so I really appreciate her care and attention. He was happy and healthy when I picked him up.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Sussex on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 802 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Sussex. 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.
85% of Sussex 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 Sussex 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 Sussex 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 Sussex.
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 Sussex 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 WI 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.
