“Amanda was awesome! Highly recommend. We have a young husky and senior Shih Tzu that is very needy and can be a bit much. She and her family did great with both of our dogs. We received daily updates and pics and videos. Which we appreciated as this was the first time leaving them. Our husky is a rescue and can be very skittish but somehow she didn’t have an issue with Amanda. Will definitely be leaving our dogs with her again.”
“Edith was fantastic!! We left our 16 year old dog with her for a week and were super nervous because we were hundreds of miles away, but Edith gave us so much peace of mind and constantly sent us updates with pictures and videos! Our little dog looked so content and spoiled! I would highly recommend trusting your pets with Edith! Thank you so much!”
“Heather was an amazing sitter for our Chubbs. She made sure he was treated like part of her family. She made necessary adjustments if she saw he wasn’t sleeping or eating to his liking. Very communicative, sent lots of pictures and updated us often. I would absolutely use Heather again and recommend her.”
“Nina took very good care of my senior Chihuahua. On the drive home my dog cried when I put her in the carrier, something she never does. I think she wanted to stay at Nina‘s house forever!”
“Melanie took fantastic care of Bella! She sent updates with pictures and videos. I could see Bella spent quality time with Melanie and her kids and Bella being comfortable with them. Bella came home happy and tired! Highly recommend Melaine!”
“I have left my dogs with Rachel several times and it’s always a great experience. She provides daily updates and pictures which are so appreciated! This time it was a week long stay and my dogs seem to have enjoyed their stay.”
“Darryl and Janice made our experience with them very special, we felt very comfortable leaving our Dog with them.They are very professional in their handling of Dogs. We will definitely be using their services again soon. I recommend to everyone that you should board your Dog with Darryl and Janice.”
“Rachel was absolutely amazing with my two pugs, Roxy and Kobe! This was my first time leaving them with a dog sitter, so I was naturally a little nervous, but she made the entire experience completely stress-free. Her communication was outstanding from start to finish. She always responded quickly to my messages, kept me updated on how my dogs were doing, and sent me plenty of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Anytime I had a question, she answered right away and made sure I knew how Roxy and Kobe were doing. Before their stay, we met in person, and I also got to meet her adorable Golden Retriever, Chubbs. He is such a sweet and friendly dog, and Roxy and Kobe got along so well with him. It was comforting to know they were in such a welcoming environment. Rachel is kind, caring, professional, and truly loves the dogs she watches. I felt completely comfortable leaving Roxy and Kobe with her, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and attentive dog sitter. Thank you, Rachel, for taking such wonderful care of Roxy and Kobe!”
“We are so thankful to have found Marilyn! She took care of our Mini Poodle while we were gone for the weekend, and I know he had the best time. He was in great spirits when we picked him up, and she sent the sweetest updates. Her home is so cute and set up perfectly. We will definitely be reaching out in the future. Marilyn is a gem! Thank you!”
“Excellent service. Responsive to my needs and communication, and Luci was very happy and clearly well cared for when I went to pick her up. Plus the area around her home is PERFECT for dog walking. My pup was very happy there”
“Kelly is an awesome dog sitter. She sent pictures and updates daily. The dogs were very happy staying with her. I highly recommend her and would use her again in the future.”
“Martin and his son were excellent. Communication was consistent, and they kept us updated with pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were being cared for with the same level of attention and affection we would give them ourselves. Our dogs came back happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time — especially being able to interact with their dogs as well. Martin and his son were responsive, reliable, and genuinely caring. We’re very grateful they were available on a weekend and would absolutely trust them again.”
“Great communication. Sent updates regularly! He was loved and cared for while I was away. With him being a geriatric pup, I always get worried about the care extended but had no worries. Highly recommend!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and also the first time leaving our dog with anyone, so a bit nervous. Jayne and Gary were amazing and took our Doodle at the last minute. They took great care and kept us updated. We will definitely reach out to them again.”
“Shane is an amazing pet sitter! He took excellent care of Lucky, my dog. He had great communication and always went above and beyond to ensure Lucky’s well-being. Lucky had a fantastic time staying at Shane’s place! Thank you once again for taking such good care of Lucky! I highly recommend Shane if you need to board your pets.”
“Breauna is the best! I am SO grateful that Breauna was not only available and responsive to a last minute request, but was also super supportive and chill when I was trying to frantically find someone to care for my dog. While my dog is chill, he has very bad separation anxiety and cannot be left alone. On top of that, he was getting over a cough and couldn’t be around other dogs. I am grateful that Breauna was able to care for my special boy with such care and ease! Would recommend to anyone seeking care for their fur baby! Will definitely book again next time I am by base!”
“Patti is the best caretaker for my dog. I have tried a few dog sitters on Rover, and she is the best. She gives daily daily updates on how my dog is doing and my dog looks happy and content in the photos. I am always nervous to leave my dog because she is a special needs dog, but Patti makes sure she is well cared for, even going beyond the call of duty to express her bladder since she is an IVDD survivor and can’t urinate on her own. Patti is amazing. Thank you, Patti!!!”

Jon was great with my two large dogs! One is full of energy and wants to play all the time, and the other is stand-offish, but Jon did great with them and integrated them into his pack like a pro. He also sent plenty of videos! He was also able to take them in on short notice, which was extremely helpful. 10/10 would recommend. Thanks again, Jon!
Rachel and her daughter are truly wonderful, kind, and caring people. They took care of Lior for almost a week, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They treated him like their own dog, and it was clear that Lior felt loved and happy with them. He absolutely adored them. They were incredibly thoughtful — they even bought him toys and spent time playing with him. He came home happy and is still enjoying the toys they gave him. I feel very grateful to have found Rachel and her daughter. I completely trust them, and I will 100% choose Rachel again for my next trip. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone truly loving and responsible to care for their dog.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Calimesa on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,503 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Calimesa. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
97% of Calimesa sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Calimesa 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 Calimesa 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 Calimesa.
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 Calimesa 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.
