“Melanie and family were wonderful. We had so much peace of mind having our 2 small dogs in their care for our 2+ week trip to Europe. They did a great job updating us and sending pictures. 5 stars all around!!! We look forward to booking with them again in the future. :)”
“Chris and Erin were fantastic with Arya. They sent pictures daily and they definitely treated her like their own. She had a blast and hopes to have more play dates in the future. Thank you so much for caring for our girl♡”
“Rachael was amazing. She responded back quickly and got a meet & greet done with. She listened to instructions and seems passionate about canine care! Definitely recommend and will continue to hire her!”
“Absolutely amazing! Our favorite Rover Sitter yet! My husband and I had conflicting work schedules and Tanya was available to accommodate and watch out dog for us. Some days she had other dogs which out dog loved and other days where she didn't have other dogs she still made sure our high energy dog was able to go on walks and had a way to take out the energy. Her children took amazing care of our pup as well! Loved the family effort that came from the household!”
“Cory was very responsive and had great communication before and during Moose’s stay! When we picked up Moose after his stay he was happy and tired. He even got to meet new friends! Cory was easy going and handled my high energy dog well!”
“It was like Molly had been to Cassandra's before. She went right inside. I think animals get a vibe from people, and Molly just knew. I think Molly had a very good time at Cassandra's. I was afraid since there weren't any other dogs there, Molly would be bored. But from the pics and video Cassandra sent, Molly was having a fine time. Won't be anxious at all to drop Molly off next time.”
“Kimberlee is wonderful! Our pup is a repeat customer of hers, and he didn’t even look back when we dropped him off. His tail was wagging the whole time! She sends lots of photos, and it’s clear your dog is in great hands with her. We’ll definitely be bringing our pup back!”
“Had to drop my cat off somewhere for the day while work was being done on my apartment. First time ever leaving him somewhere. Drop off was easy and assured me he was in good hands. Wooo be doing again.”
“They booked me last minute and were super flexible! They made sure to send lots of pictures, videos, and updates. I highly recommend this wonderful family!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was pleased with Jessica’s quick response time and enthusiasm to meet and care for Blanca. The process was easy and drop off went smoothly. Jessica’s dog was in a kennel when we arrived to make drop off less stressful for both dogs. The pups were introduced after we left to get their sniffing done on neutral territory (on a walk out front). We received photos and updates during our whole time away and knew Blanca was happy and safe. We would be happy to use Jessica again in the future!”
“Lisa did a great job with our dog who suffers from separation anxiety. She gave him all the snuggles he wanted and kept updating us regularly. We will be sure to use Lisa again!”
“Elizabeth did an amazing job with Raz! I received multiple updates every day with how she was doing. I got back from vacation a day later than I expected and Elizabeth was able to keep my dog an extra night with no problem. She even ran to the pet store and got some ear cleaner for Raz when she noticed her ears were bothering her! Overall an awesome experience and you can tell Elizabeth cares a lot about these dogs. Will definitely book again!”
“Lucia was great! I was super nervous boarding our new rescue for the first time. I wasn’t sure how he would do, and it was the first time we’ve boarded a dog. Lucia took great care of Hank, and Hank seemed to do really well there too! She took him to the dog park and sent lots of photos and videos to help ease this nervous mama’s mind! Hank came back and seems worn out, which is a great thing! We’ll definitely be using Lucia again!”
“Kevin was absolutely wonderful with my sweet Terry. From the very first day, he kept in constant communication, sharing updates that truly put my heart at ease. It was clear that Terry was not just cared for, but genuinely loved and treated like family during the 9 days she stayed with him. I’m so grateful to have found Kevin through Rover, and I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to trust him with Terry again. Highly, highly recommended!”
“Violet had a wonderful time with Allie, Henry and Hazel! which allowed us to relax and have a wonderful time on our vacation too! The daily updates and pictures were great!! I highly recommend Allie!!!”
“We hit the lottery finding this family!!! Alicia, Dan, and their daughter took absolutely incredible care of my dog, Coco. From the moment we connected, they made me feel completely comfortable leaving her in their care. They treated Coco like she was part of their family! Every day Alicia sent updates and photos, which meant so much to me and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from the pictures and messages that Coco was happy, loved, and getting tons of attention 😊 I could not have had a better experience!!! I will absolutely be booking with them (and only them!) again! ❤️🐾”
“Meagan was amazing. She sent us pictures daily and made sure we knew right away when Iris injured herself. Iris is a high energy GSP so we were not surprised but Meagen kept an eye on her injury and updated us often as she healed. Iris loved her time spent with Meagen and we would use her again.”
“Samantha is the best with dogs! She always sends multiple update photos per day and I can tell my dog is always living her best life at Samantha's house. Very clean and fenced in backyard, knows her stuff, I HIGHLY recommend!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Windsor Heights is $40

Casandra is the best! We love that our two pups have such a wonderful place to stay whenever we go out of town. Our boys are senior dogs and have all sorts of meds to give, some mobility issues, and even some accidents, but Casandra is always gracious and kind about it. She stays in contact with us and sends pictures and videos. We highly recommend Casandra!
I think my Sam had a great time with Cynthia and family…and he was so lucky that Cynthia’s daughter was there with her little dog Reggie, so he had a playmate the whole time he was there (9days). Cynthia watered her plants outside and my Sam loves to be watered also. And with the very hot weather, he enjoyed it. Will be returning!
Morgan did such an amazing job of taking care of our pup. This was our first time using Rover and leaving her with a non-family member, so we were a bit nervous but Morgan immediately put us at ease. She was so thoughtful, caring, and attentive. Bella stayed with Morgan for a week and we were able to fully enjoy our vacation knowing she was in the best hands possible being well taken care of and spoiled while we were away. We would recommend Morgan to anyone without the slightest hesitation and will absolutely trust Morgan to care for Bella during future vacations! Thank you again, Morgan!
Karina is a wonderful pet sitter, she sent us pictures and a video of our Coco while pet sitting here. Coco seemed to enjoy the time with her and even though Coco and her cat Sylvia didn't get along, everything went just fine, Karina manage to make it work. I would definitely book with her next time again!!
Elizabeth was super accommodating when our travel plans kept us an extra day longer (snow storm). She was very good at communicating with us by sending picture and video updates but not over the top where it was too much. Our dog Zeus had a blast and we would definitely have him stay with her and her family again!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Windsor Heights on Rover is $41.07 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 408 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Windsor Heights. 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 Windsor Heights 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 Windsor Heights 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 Windsor Heights 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 Windsor Heights.
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 Windsor Heights 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 IA 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.
