“Dipankar and Nagma were wonderful with our 2-year-old GSD. They kept us updated with photos all day and gave us a full report at pickup. Our dog clearly loved them—he even tried to follow Nagma back inside when we were leaving! An amazing experience. Thank you both!"”
“Mariah was great with our babies. Her location was easily accessible and clean. Good atmosphere for our fur babies. Checked in regularly and had a great vibe and positive attitude. Thank you for taking care of our fur babies.”
About: I’m someone who believes every pet deserves gentle care, patient attention, and a whole lot of love. I treat each one as family,bring warmth, responsibility, and genuine affection to every visit. 🐶 Enjoy convenient, flexible boarding — I’m open weekends, Mondays, and weekday morning before 9 am and evenings after 5 pm(can be flexible depending on availability). Secure, spacious fenced yard, designed to give pets plenty of room to move freely, explore, and stay active- providing a safe and enjoyable environment for their daily activity.
About: I've been Twixie's dog dad for six years, she's an SPCA rescue, so I know firsthand what it takes to help a dog feel safe, loved, and settled into a new routine from day one. I've trained her myself from scratch, and she now knows sit, stay, stop, down, roll over, high five, and even "boop," so I'm comfortable working through training and behavior, not just basic care. I also took care of family dogs growing up in young adulthood, so I'm used to adjusting to another dog's habits and quirks, not just my own. Beyond hands-on care, I compile videos of my dog, so paying close attention to dogs all day isn't a chore for me, it's already how I spend my time. Pet care is a genuine priority for me right now, not something squeezed around a job. I'm reliably available from 10am to 3pm, which is plenty of time for walks, play, and attentive care without rushing anything. That's a consistent window you can actually count on, not just "whenever I have time." Your dog would be cared for at my house, which has a fully fenced backyard — plenty of safe space to run and play — plus a park right across the street for longer walks. My own dog Twixie, a friendly SPCA rescue, is there too, so your pup won't be alone, she's used to sharing space with other dogs. I'm also able to crate your dog if that's part of their routine or if you'd prefer it. I pay attention to each dog's own routine, feeding, and boundaries rather than treating every dog the same way.
About: I love all pets ready to take care of anyone’s animals that needs me. I am also available to house sit. Trustworthy and ready to walk your dogs I work and go to school online so I have lots of time to be with your pets and I’m more than happy to walk your dogs. I have two dogs as well that are very friendly that get walks daily. I love being with my pets. I also have a cat
“Shamvrit and his wife were amazing! We had such an amazing experience, they took amazing care of our dog and constantly kept us updated with videos,pictures, and verbal updates. We will definitely be back next time we need a dog sitter, thank you!”
“Bruno was with Sujit while we were away for a long weekend. We had photos and updates while we were gone and came home to a very happy boy. We're working on rebooking for our next time away !! Thanks for taking such good care of our boy!!”
“Patrik and Geisha were amazing! My Chihuahua was so happy during her stay and clearly enjoyed playing with her new friends. They sent plenty of pictures and updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in their care and will definitely be booking with them again in the future!”
“Carlos and his wife cared wonderfully for our two little girls. I was so hesitant to travel without them, but I knew plane travel would be so stressful for cats. Carlos regularly sent updates and pictures, letting us know how they were doing and how they were settling in. I am so glad they had fun at Camp Carlos while we were away, it was definitely much better for them then being boarded at a facility where they would be caged all day. He was flexible and super easy to work with to boot. Thank you Carlos for caring so well for our kitties while we were away!”

“Thank you to Rachelle and her mom for taking care of Mika so well! Rachelle is really sweet and keeps us updated on Mika's adventures. The house is clean, and Mika is having a great time with them.”
“Biswas was absolutely wonderful with Ricky and Randy! He was kind, reliable, and clearly cared for them as if they were his own. Communication was easy, and the photos and videos he shared made us feel completely at ease knowing they were in great hands. The dogs were happy and well cared for when we returned. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again - highly recommend!”
“This was Xochi’s second time here and he was more relaxed. Jovelle frequently took Xochi on beautiful local hikes, played hundreds of games of fetch with him in the yard, and gave Xochi many kisses and elbow rubs…..he really made himself a part of the family this time around. He can’t wait to come back so he can sneak more love from grandma! 🤣❤️😁”
“Tracey was absolutely amazing! This was our first time leaving our dog with a pet sitter, but she made us feel completely comfortable from the start. We did a meet and greet beforehand, which really put our minds at ease. While we were away, she sent us updates with pictures. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and highly recommend her!”
“Natalie was awesome ?. She was great about giving updates( with pictures ) while we were gone. When we came home we could see Hugo was well taken cared of. We’re very satisfied and will continue to work with her!”
“Sabrina is the absolute best! We have a very fearful dog who was abused before we adopted her. Sabrina look her time to get to know our dog Joy, and to let Joy warm up to her. Sabrina sends lots of pictures and updates while we are away, which we love! She is the only dog sitter we feel comfortable leaving Joy with!!”

We had such a wonderful experience with Ishwori taking care of our sweet Nova! ❤️ It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Nova was in such loving and caring hands while we were away. We truly appreciate all the love, attention, and patience Ishwori showed her, especially making sure she received her medications on time. It meant so much to us knowing Nova was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Thank you, Ishwori, for treating Nova like family! 🐾💕 We highly recommend Ishwori to anyone looking for a kind, trustworthy, and dependable pet sitter. We would absolutely trust her with Nova again!
My dog absolutely loves Mark. The moment I say, “We’re going to see Mark,” Charlie runs straight to the car, that alone says everything. We live far away, but I happily drive the distance because Mark is the only person I truly trust with my Charlie. The bond they have is so special, and you can clearly see the love, care, and patience Mark gives. Thank you, Mark, for taking such wonderful care of Charlie. It truly means everything to us😊
Sabrina and Upakar have been the best sitters for our fur babies, Luke, Miyuki and Milo. I received daily videos on their stay with them. They accommodated the space for our Luke because he has anxiety being away from home. Sabrina and Upakar made sure our fur babies were played with and felt at home away from home. They followed feeding schedules and potty times when needed for the pups to go outside. We will definitely refer and reach out to have then care for our fur babies again. We only want the best watching our babies and that’s the exact care given to Luke, Miyuki and Milo. I am grateful we found them. Luke needed to take 1 med every evening during feeding time and that was done. We will be reaching out to have Sabrina and Upakar watch over our fur babies again. So happy we no longer have to worry about care for our pups while we are away.
This was our first time using Rover. We have a senior dog who can get anxious and had concerns about boarding him in someone else's home. However, after meeting with Tanaiia, we felt she understood our dog's needs and helped put us at ease with leaving him with her. And let us tell you, she is awesome! She sent photos and updated us throughout his stay. We highly recommend her and definitely will use her in the future.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Antioch is $37 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $64 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.

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.
94% of sitters in Antioch 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 Antioch 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 Antioch.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Antioch 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 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.
