“Janelle and Chris were incredible to our two dogs. We have a red healer/aussie mix young dog with a lot of energy that we get nervous to leave behind. But Janelle and Chris made us feel at ease with their experience with caring for dogs and their daily updates on how our dogs were doing. We will definitely be using them in the future! Highly recommend!”
“Laura and her family welcomed my puggle into their home with open arms. They sent awesome near professional style photos while he was with them. Buster will for sure return in future. Clean safe home. Fenced in yard. Loving kids and adults and two small dogs to play with. 5 star accommodations! Thanks”
“My dog stayed for an extended weekend and came home happy, healthy and tired from all the playing. Very happy with the service and will be using them again in the future.”
“Ty was great! We have always left our dogs at home with family caring for them. It was the first stay for our dogs Ollie & Izzy. Ollie fit in right away but Izzy had some separation anxiety at first. Ty was great with her and gave us daily updates, pictures, & videos. So glad to have found someone like Ty to watch our fur babies. Now we are looking forward to our next trip knowing our dogs are well taken care of. Thanks Ty!”
“Jenny is the best dog watcher ever!!! She’s always my first choice on Rover. I can count on her to send me regular updates about my beloved doggy, along with photos (cute and silly alike). She’s trustworthy, reliable, and very experienced with dog watching. I’d recommend her every time!”
“10/10 ! Experience was overall great ! Communication was great and She responded so fast while I was out of town trying to find a sitter . Her family was so welcoming and friendly! Me and my boyfriend knew our 10 mo puppy was in great hands. It was a great choice! Definitely will be my go to when I need a sitter !! Thanks so much again !”
“Karlie took great care of my pup during his stay. He got along well with her dog as well. They got a lot of both play and nap time together! He also came home with a cute bandana! (Thanks again for that). She is responsive, kind and truly loves to care for animals.”
“Rebekah was great! Lots of playtime and walks. Blaze had a great time. Also appreciated photos and updates. I felt very comfortable leaving her even though it was her first time there. Woukd definitely go back again. Thanks so much!”
“Jared was very helpful and accommodating. Princess was well taken care of and had a lot of cuddles from everyone in the family. I will contact again next time I need a sitter for Princess!”
“What a great experience! Lauren communicates well and shred lots of pictures. Buddy got along with her dogs. Best of all Buddy felt comfortable enough to eat. Highly recommend Lauren.”
“Susan was the perfect sitter for my Shiba Inu! She took good care of him, took him on multiple walks, and even baked him dog treats! Plus she’s a delightful person who’s easy to coordinate with. I can’t recommend her highly enough!!!”
“This was Emmett's second stay with Ty but his first overnight and that was a big leap for me, as I rarely leave Emmett with anyone! But it went SO well! Ty's excellent communication -- prompt responses to my questions, regular pics and videos of all the fun Emmett was having -- made all the difference and helped assuage any nervousness / separation anxiety *I* was having (harder for me than Emmett, I'm sure sure :)))). Emmett LOVED his time with Ty and I'm so grateful and relieved to have this solid, trustworthy backup support when I need it. Highly recommend Ty! We'll be back in a couple weeks! :))))”
“Monica was so great with our dog Finn while we were away for a weekend. She was super responsive and sent us pictures to keep us updated on how he was doing. Would highly recommend her!”
“Linsie was fantastic! We utilized her to board our corgi for a couple of days while on vacation and her welcomeness to our pup and communication was excellent! We look forward to using Linsie again in the future!”
“Our Tia had the best time of her life with Wendy. We are so grateful that we were able to go on our overseas trip over Christmas and not have to worry a thing about Tia's wellbeing. Wendy treated her like family, and like her own dogs who became Tia's new best friends. And Tia loved Wendy and her husband from the get-go. We really appreciated the frequent updates with pics. Whenever the need arises again, Wendy will be the first one we will contact. Highly recommended!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Salem
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with having Karlie look after our two dogs. It was great that she was able to send updates and photos periodically, so we never had to worry about them on our trip! We totally would recommend her for boarding and daycare. Will totally have our pups visit their second home when we go on our next trip!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in West Salem on Rover is $49.95 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 60 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across West Salem. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 West Salem 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 West Salem.
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 West Salem 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.
