“Katina is wonderful with our 13 year old dog. She sends pictures and video and loves to let us know how he is doing. Our senior dog had become quite nervous in his old age but he loves going to Katina and is always excited to see her”
“I did a lot of homework and reviewing of boarders for my 1.5-year-old, 70 lb. Aussie/golden before landing on Robin because of her amazing reviews and years of experience. We had just had a terrible board and train situation leaving him with some pressure sores and anxiety. I am so glad I chose Robin though. She allowed me to come out a month before booking to see her facilities, get to know me and my pup, and to explain how his days would be going. Ollie looked so incredibly comfortable around her then I started calling our vacation his summer camp. She sent pictures almost daily of Ollie running around and playing with other pups. He came back to me 5 lb. lighter than before because of it (he needed it!) and I can also tell that she kept up with his training that we have been working on which I greatly appreciated. He actually looked disappointed to go home! We will of course be back and will tell everyone we know who needs a boarder! Thank you, Robin!”
“Riley is simply the best dog sitter you can search for. She is conscientious, organized, responsive, and she loves dogs. Her way with dogs is special; she paid attention to our dog for the week we booked, and the entire time we were away, we were at ease knowing our dog was cared for like family. It is without reservation that we give the highest rating for Riley - again, simply the best!”
“Aly was very flexible on drop off and pickup times. She sent a few photos, which was totally appropriate. Would DEFINITELY leave our dog with her again! She is now family.”
“Our dog Lincoln loved staying at Christine’s place! She took such good care of him, and he came home very happy! We enjoyed our vacation without having to worry about our dogs comfort of safety. Thank you Christine!”
“Can’t put in words how amazing Mary is! I got pictures of my fur baby daily which was so reassuring. She treats your pet like her own with how detail oriented she is! 10/10 would recommend.”
“Heather and her family were awesome and took outstanding care of our golden retriever! She sent lots of fun photos and regular updates. I know he enjoyed having a big yard to play in and lots of dog friends to have fun with! He came home to us appearing happy and tired. We can’t thank them enough for looking after him on our longest trip away yet, and for being able to accommodate our request last minute after our other sitter had a conflict. We would certainly have Tucker stay with Heather again!”
“Dorothy was very welcoming to my dog Buddy! He has separation anxiety, but seemed very much at home as soon as we arrived! I know that they took care of Buddy like their own, and he was in very good spirits when I picked him up! Thanks again, and it’s good to know that I can have someone I can rely on!”
“Julie and her family took wonderful care of Willa! She got to go on plenty of walks and enjoyed lots of snuggles. Julie sent pictures and was easy to communicate with. Willa came home happy and we will definitely book with her again!”
“Moxie had a great time staying over with Caroline. I loved getting photos and updates. Caroline is very experienced with dogs who have special needs and she is warm and friendly. So glad we found her!”
“Our pups enjoyed their stay with Anne! It was easy to communicate with her and she sent lots of photos and updates. She took great care of them and we would use her again in the future. Thanks Anne!”
“Natasha runs a top notch boarding service. Our Norfolk Terrier loved it there. She is very quick to respond to booking inquiries and very attentive to the dogs in her care. Lots of photos, large fenced yard, and individual attention, walks, and playtime. 5/5”
“Alexandra and Logan were wonderful with my (sometimes overly) curious terrier, Eddie! I am always concerned about Eddie escaping to chase an animal, and they took my concerns seriously and took steps to ensure that wouldn't happen. Their fence setup was great too - the fenced-in yard wraps all the way around the house, so even if a dog slipped out of the house, they would still be in the yard. On top of that, they sent lots of pictures and were so kind to Eddie. He didn't want to leave!”
“Emil was very flexible and accommodating over the holidays and kept Chewie happy and active. Sent pics every now and then. Would totally recommend and hope he will be available for Chewie in the future! 😊☺️”
“Kirstin was so wonderful with our dog; she took great care of her and we got lots of thoughtful updates. Our flight was delayed on our way back and she was so helpful and flexible throughout, and even kept our dog for an extra night. We were so grateful! Highly recommend; will definitely book again.”
About: I have cared for dogs for a little over six years and have a lot of experience with them. I am a dog lover and know exactly how to keep them happy and healthy while their families are away! I am currently working part-time, so I will have more than enough time to care for your home, pups, and anything else you may need! I care for pets by ensuring that they are always given food and water, going outside frequently, and having someone to play with hem and pet them.
“Annie was amazing, she was responsive and did an awesome job with my dog. She communicated shared photos and if I ever have the opportunity to have her watch my dog Austin I most certainly will. Thanks!”
“Ashley was amazing! She was super friendly when we dropped off our dog Wally with her, and asked great questions about routine and feeding schedule. She sent so many pictures throughout our dog’s stay (which I loved!) and he truly looked happy, comfortable, and taken care of. Would definitely book with Ashley again to watch my dog!”

Katina is absolutely amazing! She takes great care of our dog while he’s there and he comes home happy. Katina is very communicative and provides a great environment inside and outside for our dog.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Troy is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $61 per night. On Rover, 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 of October 2026, there are 186 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.
99% 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 VA 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.
