“So lucky to have found Cristal for our weekend getaway. Very easy to book with, great communication and she provided regular updates during our doggie’s stay. Would definitely book again.”


“Bonnie was great with sending updates and pictures. Her children were great with Malu as well. I definitely would recommend her to any other pet parents! Thank you again Bonnie!”

“Thank you once again for your great service in taking good care of our fur baby while we were out of town. Till next time. And we are so touched of your wife’s thoughtfulness creating a ref magnet of Zooco’s photo! That was nice of her. Again, thank you 😊”

“Cindy was amazing! This was our first time leaving our pup, and we were nervous, but she made the whole experience so easy. She was super kind and patient, and our anxious pup warmed up to her right away. The picture and video updates really helped us relax while we were gone, and we came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog. We’ll definitely book with Cindy again the next time we’re out of town!”

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life! I grew up caring for many animals…cats, dogs, fish, quail, chickens and a rabbit. I currently have 3 dogs and a tortoise. I can’t imagine life without the love of animals! I have a lot of experience with puppies and senior dogs with medical needs. Since I work from home, I am available during most work hours. I am also a full time mom, so I’m typically unavailable during school drop-off and pick-up times, but otherwise flexible availability. I would love to spend time with your pet in whatever capacity you need. I can walk, play fetch, take to the park, or just sit and cuddle. I can feed, bathe, and distribute medication. I am able to just stop in, or stay in your home for a number of hours, but am not able to stay overnight.
“Anu is Great! I was searching and so scared to leave my baby Girl with anyone, but Anu made it easy. I loved that she only takes 1 dog at a time and she was very flexible with my date changes and times.🫶 We Picked up Mercedes at the end of our trip & she was Happy”

“So thankful that my friend referred me to Cheri and Gil, they are both so kind and easy to talk to. They answered all my questions which put my mind completely at ease, I knew I could trust them with my fur baby. They sent me updates frequently and my dog came home happy and calm. I’m so thankful to have found someone i can trust with my fur baby. Thank You so much Cheri and Gil!”

“My dog Daisy has some anxiety so it’s always stressful for her to go to a sitter she does not know. I was stressed too but Daisy warmed up to Heather right away and was a happy girl coming back! Heather responds fast and was flexible our schedule. Can’t thank you enough 😄 highly recommend!”

“We had to board our beloved Coco for the very first time, and naturally we were very nervous about leaving her with anyone. From the moment we met Merilu, she made us feel comfortable and reassured that Coco would be in good hands. Merilu and her family took exceptional care of Coco and truly treated her like one of their own. They happily accommodated all of our requests, including not using a cage and allowing Coco to sleep on the bed, which meant a lot to us since Coco has never been crated. Throughout Coco’s stay, we received regular updates with photos and videos every day, along with quick responses whenever we had questions. Seeing Coco happy, playful, and comfortable gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. When we picked Coco up, she looked healthy, relaxed, and genuinely happy, which says everything about the love and care she received. It’s clear that Merilu has a true passion for animals and provides a safe, loving home rather than just a boarding service. We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care Coco received and wouldn’t hesitate to trust Merilu again. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pet with love, patience, and genuine affection, I highly recommend Merilu. Thank you for making Coco’s first boarding experience such a positive and stress-free one for both Coco and our family!”


“Starlee is always nervous with new people and animals. I can tell Natalie cares a lot and did a great job making her feel comfortable. When I came to pick her up she was a lot more relaxed and happy. I will definitely be using her services again.”


About: What sets me apart is my calm, adaptable approach and experience with both puppy training basics and senior pet care. I'm reliable, attentive, and make sure every pet feels safe and understood. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work part-time and am off during the summers and holidays, which allows me to spend a lot of quality time at home. I am typically out of the house for only 3–4 hours at a time, so pets are not left alone for long periods. I truly love animals and am actively involved with a nonprofit rescue organization, so caring for pets is something I am very passionate about. Their well-being, enrichment, and daily needs would always be a priority in my home. If your dog is not used to being around cats, I do have an in law unit (where my mother in law lives) that I can put the cats in during your dogs stay. This is also the case if I happen to be fostering a cat during the time of your dogs stay. I provide attentive, structured care tailored to each pet’s needs. In my home, we have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks, as well as a walking trail close to our house for regular walks and enrichment. Pets receive supervised outdoor time, exercise, play, and plenty of affection throughout the day. Because I am only out of the house for short periods (3–4 hours at most), pets are not left alone for long stretches. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medication (if needed), crate routines, and preferred sleeping arrangements. I provide mental stimulation through toys, basic training reinforcement, and interactive play. I try to maintain their established routines to reduce stress and ensure consistency. Clean water, a tidy feeding area, and lots of love and attention are always part of my standard care.

About: I have owned Dogs for 30 years and love interactions with them. I am patient with young energetic dogs and senior dogs where they need that special love.D9gs have a special place in my heart ❤️! I have lots of time on my hands to make sure to keep your dog happy. With plenty of love to give always make sure they stay active and relaxed. I have a big fenced in Yard and love being outdoors with them to have fun and making sure they are comfortable and happy. Let them sniff there little hearts out and enjoy vacation.
“Shauna took great care of my baby! I think my dog thought I paid to send her to camp! She had a great time and had some new experiences meeting her horse, goat and chickens… and the great chicken race! Scarlett says thanks for the cuddles and making her feel like she was at home! We’ll be booking Shauna again!”

“She’s the best caretaker! She looked after my kitty like her baby! I am super glad i found Ming here. I wish her all the very best and happiness! I would for sure recommend her to all. She was amazing at response and made sure she sent me enough pictures and videos to make sure i feel good about my Minnu. Thank you Ming for being an amazing host to my kitty! He misses you and the girls and sends loads of love for being there for him. Thank you and 100% if i have to do this again I’ll have you take care of my cat in the future. Thank you once again. You & girls be the bestest!”

“Sant was very attentive and caring with my dog. He made sure my dog’s needs were met, especially his medications. He had good communication with me while my dog was boarded.”


“Chona was a fantastic sitter for our Frenchie, Coco. She communicated often with texts and photos, took Coco on walks and outings, and made sure she was comfortable and calm the whole stay. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog and would definitely book with Chona again.”

“I’m so grateful for the wonderful care Biswas provided for my dog, Halo. It was a last-minute booking, but he was kind enough to meet with us the night before to make sure it was a good fit. He kept me updated with pictures throughout Halo’s stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. His daughter was so sweet and happy to have Halo there, and I could tell Halo felt right at home. It was only for one night, but the experience was excellent. I’ll definitely be using Biswas again in the future!”

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Fiona, Yuan, and their family! They took such amazing care of our Weimaraner, Lily, and our cat, Garfield, while we were away for four nights. From start to finish, their communication was fantastic, and we felt completely at ease knowing our fur babies were in such loving hands! We received pictures every single day, but what we especially LOVED were the little stories and updates about what Lily and Garfield were up to! It was such a thoughtful, personal touch that made us smile and feel connected to them even while we were away. It’s clear that Fiona, Yuan, and their family genuinely love animals and treat them like part of their own family. Having that peace of mind while traveling is truly priceless! We are so grateful to have found them and would absolutely love to book with them again! We highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy, and attentive pet sitters. Lily and Garfield couldn’t have been in better hands!”

“Lauren was the best. A beautiful home with a nice little yard for my older boxer. She works from home so she’s home quite a bit which really helps my clingy boy m. I had a ton of pictures and text. She took a great care of him. He was so happy. thank you so much Lauren!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Bixler is $41 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $56 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 November 2026, there are 1,862 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Bixler. 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 Bixler 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 Bixler 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 Bixler.
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 Bixler 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.
