“Anna, Luke and their dog Taco were wonderful. They made Rio feel at home and were accomodating with our shifting schedule. We loved having the opportunity to introduce the dogs at a local dog park before just dropping Rio off. We would highly recommend them!”
“Alisha is absolutely amazing! This is the second time we’ve left our beloved pup, Luna, with her while we went on a family vacation, and we had so much peace knowing she was being loved and well cared for. Alisha and her sweet family are incredibly kind and welcoming. Every time we arrive, they make us feel comfortable and reassure us that Luna will be in great hands. She also sends daily updates and pictures, which means so much while we’re away. We are so grateful to have found them and would absolutely recommend Alisha to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving dog sitter! 🐾❤️”
About: I am a current vet student on my clinical rotation. I know small animal CPR and well knowledge and skilled in administering medications to dogs and cats. As a full time student. My schedule varies each week but willing to work things out to help take care of your pet. Some weekends free I have a friendly small size 13 year old dog. I can provide dog walks, play time, and company for your pet. I can also help administer medications if your pet has any medical condition that’s being managed
“I was nervous about boarding my fur babies (3 of them) but Stephanie was so sweet with them as soon as we got to her house. Her home is set up for your four legged family. She sent video of them and let me know they were adjusting well. We will definitely be asking her to board our four legged babies the next time we go out of town and can't take them with us!”
“Super happy with how our pup was treated! Wendy (Alice) did a fantastic job taking care of Minima, taking her for walks, and keeping in contact while we were away. She knows what she is doing!”
About: I have been a dog lover all my life I currently love a Newfoundland full time and have a fenced yard and a gated kennel to board, I enjoy taking dogs on strolls and spoiling them with a good brushing. I always wash and bleach bowls and hygiene is important to me when it comes to animals. I work diligently to manage risk and keep a safe environment. My dog is a sweet Newfoundland we have a fenced yard and love playing. I would love to come walk your dog and give them some one on one time.
“Lindsay was amazing. She was very communicative and flexible even when our plans changed unexpectedly. She sent updates and pictures, which was so appreciated as it was our first time boarding our pup. I would absolutely book Lindsay again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 49 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Troy. 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.
95% of sitters in Troy 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 Troy home-away-from-home, 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 Troy.
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 Troy 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 , 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 .
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 ID 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.
