“This was our first time using Brian's services for overnights for our two Labrador Retrievers. I really liked the time Brian took to take notes on each dogs' care during our meet and great. It showed he was really interested in providing the care they needed especially for our 9 year Lab that had special mealtime needs. Brian has a great set up in his house for dogs including a nice fenced in yard which was a real treat for our two. His dogs and the other dogs he watched were terrific playmates for ours. I know that he cared well for them and I would highly recommend him! We will be using him again!”
“Eleanor and family took excellent care of our 4 month old puppy Georgia! She is very responsive and we loved receiving the updates and pictures. Georgia loved playing with Gus and she was well cared for. We will definitely use this host again, thank you!!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Aaron took such great care of Rufus while we were away. He kept us updated with lots of photos and great communication throughout the week. We really appreciated the extra attention to his comfort and well-being. Rufus clearly loved his stay and honestly didn’t want to leave. Highly recommend!”
“I am absolutely thrilled with the exceptional care our dogs received during their stay! Ami & James did a fantastic job looking after them for two weeks, ensuring they were not only well-fed but also exercised and entertained. Communication was seamless, and we appreciated the regular updates, which gave my husband and I a peace of mind while we were away. It's clear that Ami & James genuinely care for the dogs and treat them as part of her family. I highly recommend her services and would definitely book again in the future!”
“There is not enough good things I can say about the care that Juliana showed Meek. She is warm and friendly and Meek sensed it immediately and was comfortable in her care. I received updates and pictures of daily walks and time spent in her home. Juliana is so wonderful with communication that make you feel so comfortable that your pup is safe, having fun and in a happy home. We will definitely be using her again many times over. Thank you Juliana!!!”
“Andres was great! He responds quickly and has a lovely pet friendly home with a nice fenced in backyard. His little dog Rumpkin is quite friendly too! My Sasha enjoyed her weekend and we would use Andres again. Thank you Andres!”
“Yolanda was great with Mars. He gets a little anxious and she allowed time for Mars to become comfortable. She took him out for a run and sent us photo updates.”
“David is a tentative and passionate animal caretaker. His home provides a safe haven for your pet. I will be certain to seek his service in the near future. Jacqueline”
“Patti watched my pup Hank for one night. She was super welcoming and highly responsive. Hank came home tuckered out and she even sent him home with a little treat bag and handsome little scarf. I would definitely use her services again.”
“All the hype about Dante is true! He’s communicative, accommodating, and really great energy. He asks a lot of questions to ensure my Kado was well taken care of. Dante is someone who truly loves what he does and that makes me happy. I think Kado and I found a permanent sitter until Dante retires us lol”
“Meredith was excellent! She took the time to listen to details about my dog so that her stay went well. She has a dog friendly home and yard plus she loves the dogs! Besides caring for my dog she played with her and went for walks. Meredith was easy to book with and kept me posted during the stay. When I came for pickup my dog was relaxed and it was apparent they had bonded. Meredith exceeded my expectations in all regards.”
“He was above and beyond. My new rescue had to be left behind for the holidays and wasn’t super comfortable yet, so he had some behavioral issues and, I’m embarrassed to say, ruined some of George’s valued possessions. George was beyond kind and gracious/understanding. He sent pictures and videos of my dog playing with his and I could see that he was having a good time”
“We left our yorkie, Richie with Julia for over a week and Julia took great care of Richie, took him on regular long walks, shared pictures and videos of Richie and ensured that he ate well and kept him comfortable in her home. Thanks to Julia we were worry free about Richie on our vacation”
“Matt was a perfect match for our dog. He clearly had lots of experience and his calm demeanor was great for our high energy dog. Thanks for taking such great care of Bella!”
“Alexandra and family are always wonderful to my baby boy! But this time they go above and beyond! We left for a week. And unfortunately, he ran out of food. Alexandra and family cooked him homemade food, like I did with him! Just exceptional!!!”
“Sherry was very communicative, accommodating for an energetic puppy, and went above & beyond with treats! Mila was treated like the princess she is. I appreciated the transparency and patience she provided. I would leave her with Mila again in a heartbeat (and will again soon!).”
“Dolly and her three boys took exceptional care of Parker. She has three boys and a large fencing backyard that allowed him to play amd explore in a safe environment. When we arrived, parker was immediately snatched up by her by one of her two younger sons who promptly began playing with him, pampering him and loving him. Dolly said her sons even “argued” over whose bed he would sleep in. Parker came back a happy camper and made three great buddies along the way. Additionally, Dolly kept constant contact with me and sent pictures over the course of the two days. I would highly recommend this wonderful family to look after your pet whenever you need someone to watch them.”

Ami and James are the best! It gives us such peace of mind to know that our sweet Lola is in such good hands when we are unable to take her with us during travel, etc. I love all of the daily pics and updates they provide throughout her stay. Would highly recommend to anyone needed kind, nurturing care of their furry loved ones.
We absolutely love this sitter! Our "pup" Rocky always has a great time, no matter how long we leave him. He always comes back smelling fresh and in amazingly great spirits. This is not always the case with other sitters. Danyele and her entire family are amazing and a wonderful home-away-from home for Rocky. Thanks Danyele!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Thornton on Rover is $36.38 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 3,097 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Thornton. 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.
94% of Thornton 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 Thornton 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 Thornton 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 Thornton.
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 Thornton 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 PA 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.
