“Karyn is so kind and considerate. She was very enthusiastic and attentive when watching my dog, and she sent a lot of updates, which was much appreciated. And her dog was great with mine. Would definitely have my dog stay with her again.”
“Thank you so much for caring for our pups while we were on our cruise. I can tell our dogs loved the time they’ve spent with you all. I also appreciate the updates and pictures while we were away. I fully recommend your services to anywho you is in need of dog sitting. Again, thank you so much.”
“Heather is absolutely fantastic! She communicates promptly and consistently, sending plenty of photos and updates throughout each stay. Our two dogs have stayed with her countless times, and we always know they’re in the best hands. We couldn’t recommend Heather enough.”
“So satisfied with Donut's stay! She was very communicative throughout the week with updates and photos of my little guy. I ended up having to book him for an additional week and it was no problem! Definitely will be a repeat customer whenever I need Donut boarded”
“Regan did an excellent job sitting and caring for our pups. Very respectful, well mannered and a loving and caring person to care for your fur babies. Very pleased with communication, updates and pictures as well. We will definitely choose Regan again.”
“Our pup had an overnight stay with Allyson and her fur babies, and all went great! I felt like he was well taken care of, he had another pup to play with, Allyson provided a safe environment inside and outside her home. Our pup looked like he had a great time upon pickup. Allyson answered my questions and sent updates along the way. Will book again.”
“This was the best experience we have had so far on Rover! Lindsey was phenomenal at taking care of our extremely active dog. Received daily photos of my dog and constant communication about how his day went. Will be booking again!”
About: Your fur babies deserve the royal treatment, which is exactly what they get with me! I have hands-on experience working as a Veterinary Tech, with my roots going all the way back to sudsing up pups as a bather and kennel tech. I even built my own boarding haven, Elsie’s Boarding and Spa, in loving memory of my late partner Justin and my sweet rescue pup, Elsie. When your pets are with me, you can relax knowing they’re safe, spoiled, and loved like family. My daily schedule is dedicated to pet care, giving me plenty of availability outside of my children's school drop-off and pick-up hours. Because of this routine, I can offer consistent check-ins, daytime visits, and flexible drop-off or pick-up windows to easily fit your needs. With years of hands-on experience in veterinary care and animal wellness, pet safety is always my highest priority. I have handled everything from routine bathing and coat care to assisting in surgical procedures. You can have complete peace of mind knowing your pet is in experienced, attentive, and loving hands.
About: I’ve had multiple animals since I was a kid and now I am 25 years old! I have dog sat and walked dogs for years. I love them and I’m happy to make your doggies happy. I work full-time Monday-Thursday but I get off around 4:00 and I am free afterwards. Friday I work til noon and Saturday-Sunday I am free all day! I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every dog in my care. I have a big yard and plenty of room for dogs to run around, play, and feel at home. I love going on walks, playing with pups, and making sure they get the attention and exercise they need. I’ll always prioritize their safety, follow their usual routines, and provide plenty of love, patience, and care. I’m happy to accommodate special needs and make sure every pup feels safe and cared for!
“Vanessa is amazing! My big dogs love playing in her back yard. She updated me frequently with pictures to let me know that my guys were doing well. My dogs came home happy, healthy, and exhausted.”
“Our 70lb puppy can be a handful! We know. Lol. He is such a sweet dog, but might have a bit of an unhealthy attachment to his family. He definitely developed some big anxiety along the way and we have had difficulty kenneling him anymore. He needs some special attention to help calm him and he needs to know he's loved. We almost had to cancel our trip, but Tabitha agreed at the last minute for a meet and greet since he had never been around cats. She agreed to board him after we saw he was unfazed by the cats. She definitely cared for him very well! He didn't come home traumatized from being separated from us. He is active and moving as if nothing ever happened! He has a mean bark, but if you can get past it, you'll see he is just very protective and can be just so sweet. Tabitha went out of her way to make him feel at home!!! She is definitely a very loving animal person and I wouldn't hesitate to use her again and again!! Thank you Tabitha!”
About: I've been blessed to foster more than 20 dogs over the past couple of years. I know training basics, have a big backyard, and currently have two of my own dogs who love to play. I am currently not working so I am free the majority of the time. This allows there to be little to no crating required during the day. I have a large fenced in backyard for free play and zoomies. Inside I have dog beds and toys and a lap for cuddling. My two dogs are friendly and have had plenty of exposure to other dogs through my fostering.
“Sydnie was such a sweetheart! My dogs love her. She cared for them, loved on them, played with them and took them on walks. Very friendly, easy going and prompt communication. Thank you Sydnie🩷”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for a very long time you can even say my whole life. I’ve raised cats, dogs, birds, chinchillas, even a chameleon from babies to adults. I’ve potty trained many puppies, taught them tricks, and even cared for pregnant mommas with puppies. Cats are more of my specialty though i’ve litter box trained them, taught them to walk on a leash, tamed feral cats/kittens. I also volunteer from time to time at the Acadiana Animal Aid shelter helping care for cats/dogs in need of homes. I’m currently working full-time. I work an 8 hour day normally from 8 am - 5 pm, my hours are flexible though. I also have a 1 hour lunch I can take. I’m completely free most weekends. I have a mostly fenced yard where my dog Huck loves to play, it is a little small but we make do with the space we have. My dog and cats gets fed twice a day morning/evening. If I’m caring for an animal in a clients home I can visit in the mornings/lunch/evenings depending on the care needed.
About: I bring 15+ years of professional experience in crisis intervention and behavioral health to every dog in my care — which means I’m especially good at reading stress, anxiety, and behavioral cues that other sitters might miss. I live on a spacious rural property with two resident dogs of my own, plenty of room to run, and XL crates set up for large and giant breeds. I’m confident and calm handling big, strong dogs, and I treat every pup like part of the family while they’re with me. Whether your dog needs a quiet, structured space or some extra patience working through anxiety, I’ve got both the background and the room to make it happen. I work a full-time job during the week, but pet care is built into my daily routine — mornings before work and evenings after are dedicated to walks, feeding, and playtime. I’m fully available for boarding and daycare on weekends, and since I live on-site at my property full-time, dogs in my care are never left alone for long stretches. Because my schedule is steady and predictable, your dog gets consistent care at the same times every day — not rushed, last-minute visits. My property is rural and spacious, giving dogs plenty of room to roam safely away from traffic and busy streets. I have two friendly, well-socialized resident dogs who are used to welcoming new dogs into the pack. For dogs who need crate time or a calmer introduction, I have XL crates set up specifically for large and giant breeds. With 15+ years of professional experience in behavioral health and crisis intervention, I’m trained to catch stress and anxiety cues early — so small issues get handled before they become big ones.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Capitan
Karyn was absolutely amazing with my birddog Roux!! My dog, Roux, is very active and needs a lot of exercise. Karyn gave her both morning and evening walks, midday potty breaks, and a weekend session at the Barkpark. Roux became good friends with her Great Dane, Dakota, and I felt good knowing she had a pal to be with during her stay. Karyn followed all of her food/supplement directions and she always had fresh water and a dog bed to relax on. She sent many photos and videos which were so wonderful to look forward to each day while I was out of town. Overall, this is a much better experience for our dog than a boarding facility.
Charlotte did an amazing job watching our pup for a couple days! She was flexible with pickup/dropoff times, and handled a couple of his accidents great. Our boy is pretty high-energy and he came back to us worn out! We got regular pictures throughout each day, and he seemed to have the time of his life. I strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Capitan is $27 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $33 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
95% of sitters in Capitan 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 Capitan 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 Capitan.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Capitan. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Capitan 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 LA 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
