“Absolutely wonderful experience with Ying! She took amazing care of our dog and kept us updated every day with photos and details about his walks and activities. Our dog is a picky eater, and she even went above and beyond to prepare homemade meals for him! What impressed us most was how happy and comfortable he was throughout his stay. He showed no signs of separation anxiety, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. It’s clear that he absolutely adores her! Ying is incredibly caring, attentive, and thoughtful. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would happily book with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Nikolai and his wife have a lot of experience watching after all breeds and sizes of dogs. My pup stayed with them along a large group of other pups over the holidays and we had an overall good experience with them. I was happy to know that our pup had plenty of friends to be with during his long stay.”

He is incredibly responsive and sends daily updates packed with great photos and videos. It is so easy to see how happy and comfortable my dog is staying with him. Chen takes him on multiple daily walks to the park to keep him active and entertained. I couldn't ask for better peace of mind, highly recommend!”

They are quick in responding to my messages and sent us pictures every day during the entire stay. We are happy that Callie is not just well taken care of, but also got to play with their family dogs Bella and Daisy. Thanks Ulunma and Don, for taking such good care of Callie and keeping her company!”

“I can't thank Danielle enough for the incredible care she provided for my puppy while I was away for my wedding and honeymoon! For two weeks, she went above and beyond to ensure my furry friend was happy and healthy. Danielle sent frequent updates, which really put my mind at ease during such a busy time. She even took the extra step to care for my puppy when she developed ear mites, administering medication and keeping her comfortable. When I returned, my puppy looked absolutely adorable in a cozy hoodie and a festive Halloween scarf! I highly recommend Danielle for anyone in need of a caring and responsible pet sitter. Her dedication and love for animals truly shine through. Thank you, Danielle, for taking such wonderful care of my puppy!”

“There’s no place like home but this is the closest place to it. Wonderful, warm, loving and caring home by a wonderful, loving and caring person. And her dear sweet mother too! 5 stars all around. I had to find a sitter on extreme short notice and I was so thrilled that Chawntea was willing to accept my pup with less than 12 hours notice and for a 13 day stay while I was out of the country. My pampered pooch was treated like her own and I honestly think she may have came back more spoiled than when I left her and after that much time away it was a wonderful feeling knowing she was cared for so well. She even gave her a bath! Definitely will be a repeat customer and looking forward to future play dates w/ Bailey. Thank you so much!”

“They were a treat to work with! I was a little nervous leaving my 6-month-old Australian Shepherd because of how much energy and attention young Aussies require, but they exceeded all expectations. They took excellent care of him during his stay, including taking him on multiple hikes and making sure he got plenty of exercise and enrichment. It was clear when I got home that he was happy, healthy, and well cared for. I really appreciated the level of attention and care they provided, and I would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter.”

Robin and Dan suggested a meet and greet and then a trial stay so that Coco would get to know them before leaving her there for a longer period. During the two day trial, I was given updates via text, photos and videos. They kept Coco entertained and very well taken care of. They are the sweetest couple and they genuinely love what they do.

Margy provided attentive and supportive care for our senior boy! It was his first time staying with someone new in a while, and Margy was a pro settling him in and dealing with his anxiety. She sent updates and videos and let us know whenever something unexpected happened, and Robbie got some great walks in the lovely neighborhood in Moraga. Margy’s calm and positive energy was such a great match for our dog. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

Chad was amazing! This was the first time we'd ever boarded our dog and the longest time he'd been away from us so I was quite nervous about how it would go. Chad was very reassuring and managed our very high energy pup. Our baby was happy to see us when we picked him up but I think he would have been happy to stay at Chad's place even longer. :)

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Canyon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Canyon on Rover is $60 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $43 and $90 per night. 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 6,243 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Canyon. 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.

93% of sitters in Canyon 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 Canyon 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 Canyon.

<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 Canyon 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.
