“Drake was amazing!! He watched our senior Great Pyrenees and was extremely communicative and reassuring when I was very nervous about leaving her. Our pup was happy and relaxed. Absolutely recommend Drake!!!”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been a natural part of who I am. I’ve trained all of my dogs as an adult—everything from solid leash manners to responding confidently to hand signals. I also have experience supporting senior pets with special needs. One of the dogs I cared for had hip dysplasia, and I helped him stand, walk, and get to the restroom safely. On the days he couldn’t get up and had accidents while lying down, I made sure he was cleaned, comfortable, and treated with patience and dignity. My love isn’t just for dogs—I’ve always had a soft spot for cats too. Whether it’s training, daily care, or supporting an animal through their toughest moments, I show up with compassion and steady, reliable care. I don’t have a normal 9 to five job I’m gone for two weeks out of the month for work and home for two weeks during that two weeks. My schedule is completely clear, which allows me to focus on all the awesome animals. I always require a meet and greet to ensure a good fit for everyone. I never allow dogs off-leash in unsecured areasa and I am cautious with door-dashing and ensure pets are securely indoors. I provide photo/video updates with every visit and am quick to respond to messages. I live in a non-smoking household with a fully fenced 6-foot wooden fence. I live near a large quiet park, perfect for nervous pups. I have a quiet, separate room for pets that need a break, and no kids are present. I will treat your home with the same respect as my own and always lock up securely.
“Gaius was absolutely wonderful with my girl Lilith! I was so worried about her during the holiday but she had such a good time. Even made a new friend with his adorable dog He sent pictures and videos and kept me informed of how she was doing.. Prompt with pickup and drop off. Will definitely use him again.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life and have always loved them. I currently still have 2 of my own. I have helped take care of litters of our own puppies, and volunteered at my local animal shelter. I am confident that my knowledge and love for animals will help me take care of yours too! I am a busy stay at home mom with lots of littles, but I am usually home and able to provide my services when needed! I do my best to ensure all animals are comfortable and feel safe around me, wherever we are. I like to bond with them and earn their trust. Whether it’s a walk, or ensuring their comfort while you’re away, count on me!
“Thank you so much! I have used Tekandi and his family a few times now and they treat Lucas like part of the family which we really appreciate. I was feeling guilty because Lucas knew we were traveling without him. As soon as we pulled up to Tekandi’s house, he jumped to the front seat and hurried to get out in excitement. When we opened the door, he ran to Tekandi’s front door to go find him. Lucas knew where he was and excited to see Tekandi and his family. 💜”

“Alexis did an awesome job taking care of our two yellow labs over a long weekend trip! She was very accommodating, especially as they are typically anxious when away from us. She maintains excellent communication and we enjoyed frequent photos and updates of our girls having a great time. We would highly recommend her for fur baby care!”

“Amanda was fantastic. I made a mistake on my booking and was definitely optimistic on my return time. I got home late but she was very gracious. My dog was well cared for and I received updates throughout the time away. I’m grateful for Amanda’s care of my dog!”

“I have never left my Daisy with anyone. Barb and her family were perfect. She met with us before and made us feel very comfortable. She sent me updates on how Daisy was. Sent me pictures and made the whole process so easy. I will definitely be leaving our loved puppies with her again.”

About: I spent every summer on my grandparents’ farm, caring for furry, scaly, and feathered friends. Those experiences taught me early on how to give animals the love, attention, and proper care they deserve. Today, I bring that same experience and compassion to every pet I look after—offering reliable care, plenty of playtime, and lots of cuddles whenever you need. I work from home and am a mom to twin 1-year-old girls, so my days are busy but full of love—and flexible enough to give plenty of attention to pets. I’m home throughout the day for cuddles, playtime, and care. My cousin also works from home, so we make a great team—your furry pals will always have extra eyes on them and plenty of company. It’s a happy, lively home where pets get lots of love and attention all day long. I have a fully fenced yard with separate areas for playful or shy pups, plus indoor dog-friendly spaces. My two friendly dogs provide companionship, and I have large crates for pets needing quiet time. Every pet in my care stays safe, comfortable, and happy.

About: New to rover dog sitting but not new to owning dogs. Grew up with dogs my whole life so ive experienced it all from small to huge dogs. I offer normal dog boarding and premium dog boarding experiences. I used to be a dog bather at a grooming salon so i know how to get your dog smelling fresh during their stay. If you need me to pet sit a puppy under 1 year old ill probably watch em for free if i could. Just ask and ill let you know. I work from home making insurance calls all day while snuggled on the couch with my personal puppy shiva so working in other dogs in my daily life will be pretty easy if you choose to book with me. Laid back pups are my favorite. I have a fenced in yard that pups can play in all day if they want. Pet friendly furniture. I have 1 dog and 2 cats (they dont mind dogs) but your pet will be introduced slowly to them just in case.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Barstow is $44
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Barstow
Catherine was great with our high energy French Bulldog mix. I explained Belle's needs ahead of time, and Catherine was able to provide a private environment requested while also treating Belle with kindness and attention. I was put to ease by the consistent communication while we were away, including videos. If I need to fly out of Vegas again, I will likely try to book again if we need a place for any of our dogs.

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 Barstow 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 Barstow.
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 Barstow 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.
