“Mellysa was amazing with our high energy puppy. She was available even though it was a last minute booking and sent pictures and follow up throughout the stay. Our puppy had so much fun and came home exhausted from all the play. Pur puppy loved her dogs and cried when she had to leave. Highly recommend for a safe and loving sitter while you are away.”

“Elizabeth took great care of my two fur babies! They can definitely be a handful, but she handled them wonderfully and I never received a single complaint. This was my first time leaving them in someone else’s care for an extended stay, so I was a little nervous, but Elizabeth kept me updated throughout the day and gave me peace of mind. I would absolutely trust her with them again. Highly recommend Elizabeth!”

About: As a dedicated pet caregiver with over five years of personal experience, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs of varying breeds, including German Shepherds and terriers. My approach centers on providing loving, gentle care that ensures your dog feels right at home. I understand the importance of maintaining your dog’s existing routine, which is why I offer a structured schedule tailored specifically to your needs. From regular exercise to grooming services, I aim to make your dog’s experience as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. I truly value the companionship that dogs offer, and I’m committed to giving them the attention and care they deserve. As an online college student, I have the flexibility to offer open availability for pet care. My schedule allows me to accommodate a variety of needs, whether it’s for regular check-ins, extended stays, or last-minute requests. I’m able to adjust my time to suit your dog’s routine and ensure they receive consistent care whenever needed. My home is a cozy and welcoming space for your dog to feel completely comfortable. Both my living room and bedroom are open to them, and they’re free to relax on the furniture, including my bed. I live in a quiet neighborhood, perfect for peaceful walks, and I’m just a short stroll away from a lovely park where your dog can enjoy plenty of fresh air and exercise.

They took fantastic care of our more hyper dog, sent pics, gave him treats, took him on bike rides, my dog has never been happier with a pet sitter! And their darling Corgi Mochie is the sweetest. They took care of our dog like he was their own and I couldn’t be more pleased. Definitely will book again in the future.”

About: Hi, I’m Stephanie! I’m an avid lifelong dog lover who works from home full time. Our home features a spacious, secure fully fenced backyard where dogs can run freely. I have extensive experience caring for happy pups of all life stages, from high-energy puppies who need consistent potty training to seniors who require gentle care and medication management. My husband and I have a lively, dog-loving home with two friendly pups and a toddler under two. Because of this, we only accept guest dogs who are known to be comfortable and gentle around young children. We also proudly offer long-term boarding for military deployments and extended work travel. We are familiar with the military lifestyle and offer flexible boarding for both short-term TDYs and long-term deployments. Having two dogs of our own, we provide a stable 'pack' environment where your pup becomes a temporary member of our family for as long as you're away. Whether for a weekend or six months, your dog will receive close supervision, daily play, and all the love they deserve! I'm currently working from home so I'm very active and available to the dogs when they need me. They typically like to nap in the office or sunbathe outside while I'm working, and during my breaks we often play in the backyard or go for a quick walk. Once I'm off work there's more playtime in the backyard before dinner and bedtime. Our two friendly dogs love making new friends and are great at welcoming guests into our pack. We always offer a quick Meet & Greet in our spacious backyard to ensure everyone’s personality meshes perfectly before the stay. This allows us to see how our dogs and my child interact with your pup before we confirm a stay. For long-term stays (30+ days), I often suggest an extended Meet & Greet to make sure your pup feels fully comfortable before your departure.

“Carole was a blessing to find. She watched our dog for an entire week with no issues and every few days she communicated with us by sending us a pic of our furry baby. She has a beautiful outdoor area for dog sitting and has lots of knowledge with dogs. We ended up not having enough food for our dog and she went out and bought a bag for him and we reimbursed her via Zell. She also gave us really good tips on how to train our puppy. My family recommends her and we'll definitely use her again.”

About: I have had pets since I was a little girl starting with cats that lived into their 20s and a childhood dog that was my very best friend for over half my life that died at age 14. He was a great dog with lots of energy. I have enjoyed my own pets and other people's pets over the years. I am extremely kind hearted and love all animals and believe they deserve the best life possible! I would love to pet sit any time I am available which is pretty open at the current time. Please Just give me a call or text or email and I will let you know right away if I am available to walk, pet sit, play with, or whatever else you need or want me to do with your little furry one. I love animals and take amazing care of them. I am pretty flexible at the moment except for driving the family around and some part time work. Other than that I can devote my time to caring for your baby. I have a big fenced yard with lots of space and and nice big house too :) I am open for all kinds of pet sitting walks daycare drop ins etc.

“Sara is amazing. She kept us updated the whole time! we were anxious to leave our babies behind but she made us feel they were with us. We are already planning for our next trip, and we will entrust our other fur babies to her. Note that she is very very nice. Very flexible at the time schedule, we told her we are running a little late than the scheduled pick up - and she was okay about it - others would have complained. very very very happy client here. thank you Sara!”

About: I have grown up with dogs. The past 10+ years I have cared for other peoples dogs. I understand how uneasy people feel about leaving their pooch in a Kennel, simply because their dog is their world and they would rather have their dog have home comforts whilst you are apart. Married but we have no children so am able to offer a calm environment for those dogs that are mature or nervous of bangs and loud noises. Likewise I have the time and energy for those dogs that need a little more play time. I have a neutered schnoodle that is mature enough to chill but also enjoys a play. I work part time from home. So I am able to offer your pooch a lot of time and love, be it walks or just company. I have an enclosed, secure garden, mainly walled with gated access which is locked. It is completely private. It is not a large garden, but it certainly offers a dog enough space to stretch their legs, chase a ball or just chill on the patio.

About: Hello, I am 40 yrs old I live in Mojave, Ca. I have 2 dogs and 1 cat of my own and I have always had animals in my homes growing up as a child, it taught me compassion and patience. I love to interact with all types of animals, dogs/wolves are my favorite tho...my pets are more than just pets, they are my FAMILY...I would also treat yours as family. I work, graveyard shifts so I'm home pretty much all day so my life would be surrounded by your pups lol. I work graveyard so I will have all day with your fur-babies and then just before it's time to put them to bed I will be leaving to work, but if I am called into work earlier than someone is ALWAYS home to help with boarding. I have a fenced yard that your pups can run and play in all day or night...as long as they are all dog friendly of course.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Ansel

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 138 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ansel. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 Ansel 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 Ansel 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 Ansel.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ansel. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

You and your Ansel 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 CA 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.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
