“Lainey loved her stay with Amanda! Amanda sent me lots of photos and kept in good communication. She took our dog out on walks and did lots of outside time with her. She was also flexible with pickup time for us!”
“I just used Alesya’s dog-sitting service for the first time, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She took care of my 5-pound, 8-month-old Chihuahua puppy for an entire week and treated her so well. Her home is clean, welcoming, and full of positive energy — the perfect environment for a little puppy. She sent me daily updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My puppy came back happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend Alesya to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. I will definitely be using her services again and again!”
“Sandra is an amazing caretaker and human being. She took care of our pup like he was family. She provided consistent messages and videos of his stay and made us feel at ease while we were gone. Would 💯 recommend her.”
“This was the second time Kelsey watched our pup Art while we were out of town, she did an amazing job with him once again! She sent us tons of pictures while we were away of all the fun they were having together. Thank you Kelsey! Art had an absolute blast!”
“Pam was so great with Bridget. Bridget definitely seemed really happy when she got home and Pam sent pics and she looked very comfortable immediately. I am so glad we found Pam and will be happy to book again.”
“Our doggies love going to Leslie’s! We have used her for a second time and felt totally comfortable leaving them. She provided the cutest pictures of them and they were obviously either relaxed and having fun or sleeping peacefully.”
“We had such a great experience with Amy and Justin! They took amazing care of our 10 month old puppy and gave us complete piece of mind while we were away. They were the first non-family members to ever watch Nala and it was obvious that they genuinely cared about her. We received daily detailed updates about what Nala had been up to along with lots of adorable pictures. Amy and Justin have a big enough backyard to allow the dogs staying with them to play. We were so happy with the care Nala received and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their dog!”
“After having many many people watch my dog I have finally found someone in Derek and Leslie that I have 100% trust in! They treat Molly like family therefore they are family to me! Very kind, respectful, and nurturing to my girl - I take comfort in knowing where she is going to be for the day or the week! I recommend giving them a try if you are in the Sacramento area. Joe Brown”
“Colleen and her husband are lovely people and treated our Maltipoo like he was their own. She is very knowledgeable and intuitive and a real dog lover. My little dog even looked back at her when we got into the car! What a lucky find 🐶”
“Sixuan was incredibly attentive, following all of my feeding instructions to the letter, taking Andi on regular walks, and ensuring she had her potty breaks every three hours or so. Coming home to find Andi looking so happy relaxed and healthy gave me total peace of mind. She sent regular pictures with updates about her welfare . I gladly give Sixuan 5 stars for her excellent service and cannot recommend Sixuan highly enough! She did an absolutely wonderful job looking after my fur-baby!”
“Victoria was great! She sent me updates, was very kind and easy to communicate with. My dog needed some social time and to see how she did on an overnight visit with other dogs. She said my dog was good, played well with the other dogs and she would watch her again. That’s a huge relief because not everyone will watch Belgian Malinios’, so I was grateful. I would highly recommend Victoria and will be returning in the future. Thank you Victoria for taking such good care of Sasha.”
“Emily and her husband were great. I ended up stuck in Reno due to a fire and them closing I-80 so I texted Emily and explained my situation and Emily was great she had no problems keeping Bo for another day. She sent me pics and videos of Bo having a great time at her house with her dogs. I was afraid Bo wouldnt want to come home with me cuz he was having such a good time. Which wasn't the case Bo was happy to see me when I picked him up, but im sure he is going to miss Emily and her family.”
“Lisa was great with our dogs! She provided regular updates with photos and was flexible with our schedule. This was our first time having them stay with a pet sitter and I would be happy to book with Lisa again.”
“Michael and his sweet family have taken great care of our maltipoo Charley twice now. Our latest trip was 11 days long. When we leave Charley with Mike, we feel confident that Charley will be loved and taken great care of by a family that treats him as a pet of their own. It’s a large house and very clean. The yard is huge! Charley gets along with their dog Bela and once the pool is completely put in, the yard will still be big enough for the dogs to run and play. If we texted Mike while we were on vacation, he responded promptly and even sent us photos to ease our minds about how our dog was doing. I do think it’s important that your dog is safe around other dogs and young children. Overall, Mike is a great choice and easy to work with.”
“The best review is the way my little guy went running to Michelle with his tail wagging when I dropped him off. He obviously enjoyed his stay with his doggie friends everything to explore in the big back yard.”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life, and have trained several of my own dogs myself. I don’t currently have a doggo, but I do have cats and have been missing having them around! I frequently take care of my mom’s senior dog who requires several meals and medications per day, as well as my dad’s dog who is 5 and on medication as well! My entire childhood I helped dog/cat sit, and since I work remotely from home, I figured I could get started again. (: I’m a full time mental health therapist/social worker, that works from home! I have sessions that last 50 minutes each, with 10 minute breaks in between throughout the most of the day, as well as an hour or two lunch break. Because of my frequent breaks, I’m able to give frequent potty breaks, as well as walks throughout the day! I live in a downstairs two bed, two bath apartment, with plenty of space for your pets! All pets are allowed on furniture and have free access to roam, or have space to be separated from my cats if that makes you feel more comfortable. I will work to create a space that makes you and your pet feel the most comfortable possible! I also am comfortable with crate training, potty pads/training, and any other behavioral problems that can arise.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Auburn is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $60 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,120 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Auburn. 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.
94% of sitters in Auburn 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 Auburn 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 Auburn.
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 Auburn 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.
