Our puppy absolutely loves Kelly. He is always so happy to see her and hang out with her. She is excellent about paying attention to detail and has such a warm and loving demeanor with our dog. Our family feels very much at ease when our pup is in her care! She is also great about sending many photos, videos and updates on their walks, feeding, naps and adventures!

Chad is wonderful with my Benny. When I leave Benny in his care I know that Benny has a great time and is well looked after because he sends me picture/video updates. Benny is always wagging his tail when he sees Chad. I will continue to book Chad.

Alexandra was an incredible pet sitter for my almost 3-year-old mini bull terrier. Alexandra is a clear communicator, proactive, kind, responsible, attentive, and loves animals. My dog stayed with Alexandra and her two kiddos for 5 days/nights, and I was able to fully enjoy my vacation because of Alexandra's excellent communication. She kept me updated and texted me each day before I had a chance to worry about anything (after all, she was caring for my fur baby!). I felt at ease knowing that my pup was in loving and attentive hands, and I could text any time I felt the need. My dog is super friendly and also has some behavior quirks. She can get overexcited, and Alexandra had no problem following all the care instructions. She noticed my dog's comfort or discomfort and ensured she got what she needed. When I picked up my pup, she was quite content and even gave Alexandra a little lick goodbye, which told me even more about the care Alexandra and her family gave my little one. So many thanks, and I will definitely book again!!

Sherry is an AMAZING dog sitter!! I trusted her to care for my sweet but nervous 50lb girl, Ellie, and I could not have asked for a better sitter. Sherry was so thorough, she sent plenty of updates throughout and put me at ease! She was super responsive to my dog’s needs, and I could see Ellie just melting and falling in love with her through the updates. She’s got a lovely, clean and safe apartment and she is obviously someone who knows dogs well. I would trust Sherry with dog sitting ANY day! Highly recommend.

About: I have over 30 years of experience caring for animals, including dogs, cats, and rabbits. I'm currently a stay-at-home mom of 2 (ages 3 & 6) with a very open schedule that allows me to go above and beyond for my furry friends! Our home offers a luxurious 3600sf of comfy indoor space, 3 wraparound view decks for birdwatching, sunbathing and cooling off (dogs welcome in our kiddie pool!), and a fully fenced backyard for sniffs and exploration. We're currently a pet free household and only accept one client at a time to ensure your pet has our full attention, a true vacation experience, and LOTS of love. My husband and I are both experienced caregivers of puppies, senior dogs, brachycephalic breeds, and dogs with special needs. Our kids love animals and are eager to help with feedings, walks, games and snuggles, but also know when to step back and give our furry friends space and peace. I'm an avid hiker, gardener, and nature lover, so if your dog loves to hit the trail and go on adventures, I'm always looking for a side kick! Or, if your pup just likes to chill and snack, I get that too, and I'm here for it ☺️ Looking forward to connecting! I generally don't have a schedule. This means that instead of fitting your dog's needs into my schedule, I create a schedule around your dog! Your dog will be treated like an honorable guest and loved like a member of our family. Safety is always our number one priority, and as such your pet will always be closely supervised, protected and guarded from dangers. Because we have young children, all dangerous household items are always locked away. As a gardener, I'm cognizant of what plants are toxic vs edible and will always keep an eye on your pet to ensure they're not getting into anything dangerous. If I bring your dog on adventures or errands, they will always stay right by my side and will never be left in a car, tied up, or in any other unsafe situation. And lastly, we take "gentle hands" and respecting animals VERY seriously in our household, so even our most fragile senior guests can enjoy a peaceful, relaxing stay.

This was such a great boarding experience! My pup is elderly and requires some patience and attention, and they were so kind and thoughtful with her. She got a bit sick on the first day and they let me know right away and were happy to make changes to her routine to work with it. I got consistent updates with pictures and felt totally certain that my dog was well cared for the entire time. Definitely one of the best dogsitters I've used through this site.

Judith watched our 7-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog for two weeks while we were visiting family on the East Coast, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Having our sweet senior boy with her felt like leaving him with family. She sent us regular photo updates, gave him so much love, and really understood his needs. Judith is wonderful with dogs—especially seniors—and had no trouble giving his medication and keeping a close eye on him. We’ll absolutely have him stay with her again.

We LOVE all of their updates and photos, they’re the best! And we were super grateful they were flexible to extend Koda’s stay one extra night. All in all such a good experience and I’m sure Koda is looking forward to going back! Thanks Jeff and Beth!

About: I have 2 cats and sit for family/friends pets often. I can follow specific instructions well, and am well equipped to handle most animals. I am a high school student on summer break, and have a relatively flexible schedule to cater to any specific needs a pet could have. I care for pets in my home however comfortable they are.

This was my first time using Rover and Asha made it such an easy and pleasant experience. She allowed us to come by to meet her dog and see the space before committing to ensure our dogs would get along (my dog isn’t around other dogs very often). She was very nice as well as responsive, and I didn’t feel overly anxious leaving our dog with her for 2 weeks. I’d occasionally message for updates and she’d quickly get back to me with a photo and letting me know how things were going or asking any questions she had ti make the adjustment easier for everyone. At pick up my dog seemed happy and in good health and her transition back home was easy (unlike when we boarded her in the past). If Asha will have Birdie back, I’d definitely book with her again!

We had a wonderful experience with Noreen! She was incredibly patient, attentive, and caring with our pup, who has been dealing with hip issues as well as allergies, and required a little extra support. She really took the time to make sure our dog was comfortable, happy, and got plenty of play time and exercise. We felt completely at ease knowing our pet was in such capable and compassionate hands. Highly recommend!

Michael was truly unbelievable and definitely will be rebooking. He sat our 2 labs and they immediately took to him when we met him prior to booking - rare for our yellow, who sometimes gets a bit nervous around new people, but he was immediately at ease. Michael is clearly a chap who knows dogs and who dogs know is a good, loving person. Michael was also super responsive and kept us updated with photos throughout the stay. The dogs were clearly well settled and happy. THANK YOU MICHAEL! Truly. Dare I say, I can't wait to book again. Don't hesitate - this guy is a gem!

Kelly was amazing! It was our first time leaving LuLu with anyone, and since she’s a quirky, bossy little old lady, we were definitely apprehensive about finding the right person who truly understood the needs of a senior pup. Kelly ended up being the perfect fit. We spent some time getting to know each other beforehand, and we immediately appreciated how thoughtful and prepared Kelly was, not only in making sure she was a good fit for LuLu, but also that LuLu would be a good fit for her. Throughout LuLu’s stay, we received frequent updates, photos, and videos that kept us informed on how her little dogcation was going and each message reassured us that she was in loving and capable hands. We were genuinely able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing LuLu was getting the best possible care. Thank you again, Kelly!

We are very happy that we found Katy and Chris's place for our golden retriever to stay. They have a beautiful and perfect backyard for dogs to run and play in. They are also very experienced with dogs. They have two beautiful kids who are friendly and enjoyed staying with our golden retriever. This was likely the best boarding experience our dog could possibly have had. We feel very lucky to have found them.

I had to leave my dog, Phoebe, for a few days while I traveled for work, and was a bit nervous as I only recently adopted her and she was going through separation anxiety. Sandy was great with her, sending photos every day and taking Phoebe on long walks with her dog, Bada. Phoebe and Bada are friends now and I’ve definitely found Phoebe’s new pals and will leave Phoebe in good hands with Sandy whenever I travel!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Canyon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Canyon on Rover is $58 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 6,295 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 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.

92% of Canyon 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 Canyon 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 Canyon 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 Canyon.

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 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 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.
