“Lori watched our dog Hana for four nights and we couldn’t be more pleased. Hana can be very anxious and temperamental, but Lori exceeded our expectations and was able to form a bond with her quickly. We usually avoid boarding Hana at larger facilities because she becomes overwhelmed and overly anxious. However, Lori was able to provide Hana with much more intimate care where she felt safer. Lori provided daily updates showing us that Hana was active and well taken care of. This made it much easier to feel at ease while we are on vacation. We will certainly be using her again.”
“Clara is a kind and accommodating cat sitter. She sent pictures of Kal interacting with her dog that makes Kal peacefully, ,comfortable and happy finding companion with her dog. Kal cried when my son picked him up,.. Kal wants to stay with his new friend dog. Thank you Ms Clara will see you again.”
“Araceli is great and her house is perfect for my smedium sized dog! I know that Scout felt at home and enjoyed running around her yard when she wasn’t lazing around. That allowed me to enjoy my trip knowing she was in good hands thank you Araceli for taking such good care of Scout! 🐾”
“Cristina was the best sitter I have had for Valentina! She was extremely communicative and made me feel that Valentina was safe throughout her whole stay. I had several delays to my trip and Cristina was super flexible, allowing Valentina to stay longer than expected. We appreciated this so much. Book with Cristina, she is awesome!”
“Monique was really great to work with, showing a lot of flexibility in a frequently changing situation with workmen taking over my apartment. The cats seemed to have enjoyed their time and returned home without any signs of stress! I would highly recommend Monique!”
“I can't thank Melanie enough for taking such wonderful care of Gunny while I was out of town! From her swift response to my initial inquiry to her warm welcome when we arrived, the entire experience was fantastic. Melanie made Gunny feel right at home, and I truly appreciated the daily updates she sent - they gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Her home provided a clean, safe environment where Gunny could relax and enjoy himself. It was so comforting to see how well Gunny got along with Melanie's dog! Always nice to see him make new friends and enjoy some canine companionship during his stay. It was such a pleasant surprise to discover how much Melanie and I have in common! Those connections made me feel even more comfortable leaving Gunny in her care. I would absolutely recommend Melanie to anyone looking for pet care, and I'll definitely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Melanie, for going above and beyond to make our experience so positive!”
“Marissa did a fantastic job with my little puppy. We did not plan very well and had to find someone at a moment's notice and she came through - BIG TIME. My little puppy seemed so happy in the pictures and video we got of her. We really appreciated the care that Marissa gave to our baby girl. Thank you a ton!!!”
“Alan is the BEST EVER!! We are repeat customers. Our guy, Tubby, always loves to visit Alan. Alan is very kind, attentive, caring, and friendly. He LOVES animals and his job. Our family always feels at peace when Tubby is being sat by Alan. Alan, gives Tubby plenty of walks and playtime. His home is very spacious, cozy, and clean. Tubby always comes home looking clean, well-kept, and happy :)”
“Claudia & Cris were beyond amazing! They had a gorgeous area for Kilo to run around and meet other dogs. They also strived in updating me daily with cute videos of our baby and trained her every step of the way. Highly recommend for anyone to have their dog stay with this team!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and have enjoyed caring for pets my whole life. I had my sweet girl Stella, a pug, for 13 years. I crate, potty, and recall trained her as a puppy, fed her a balanced diet of vitamins and homemade food throughout her life, and gave her loving, gentle care in her senior hospice years. I’ve also cared for my mom’s boxer for a year and even taught her, her favorite trick… tossing a treat up with her nose and catching it! I’ve looked after my friends’ pets as well, including cats, kittens, dogs, puppies, senior dogs, birds (parrot), a chameleon, and special mentioned of a disabled Frenchie who needed a little extra help to go potty. I make friends with any neighborhood kitties when they let me. Usually just takes a bit of chicken or turkey. Lol I am happy to say that I have a pretty flexible schedule, so I can work around almost any needs. Let me know what works for you! I’m patient, attentive, and dedicated to making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while in my care. I treat every animal as if they were my own and understand that giving their family peace of mind makes leaving them just a little bit easier.
“Jermere & Janetta were absolutely awesome to work with. My dogs had such a good time. From the beginning to end, their communication was stellar and very helpful especially for our senior dog. Thank you again J & J!”
“Great sitter! Melinda was super friendly and had great communication throughout our dogs stay. She was also super flexible with timings and accommodating to anything extra our cockapoo needed! Definitely coming back to her in the future”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the way I treat every pet like family while tailoring care to their unique needs. I have hands-on experience with both energetic puppies who need consistent training and gentle guidance, as well as senior pets who may require extra patience, medication reminders, and comfort. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment where pets feel loved and secure, even when their owners are away. Whether it’s reinforcing good habits, providing lots of play and exercise, or offering slow walks and cuddles for older pets, I adapt to what each furry friend needs. My goal is to make sure they’re not only cared for, but genuinely happy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am home full-time with no other job commitments. This allows me to give pets my full attention throughout the day In my home, pets enjoy a clean, bug-free space with a fenced backyard for safe play and exercise. I provide fresh water, regular breaks, and lots of attention.
“Honestly, from the moment we met during the consultation we were immediately at ease. My pup had plenty of love while we were gone ( 13 days) and was actually sad when she came home - we think from missing Agueda! We couldn’t be happier with the care she received and if you are hesitating to book, don’t! She is great!”
“Robin & Rahn took such good care of our Charlie while we were away 💗 Robin was so accommodating when she allowed us to schedule a meet & greet the same day I reached out to see if they were available. When we showed up her energy was calm friendly and welcoming, our Charlie is normally a little sketchy with new people and he quickly fell in love with her! Their backyard is so cute and quaint with areas of nice grass for the doggies to play and lay in the sun, as well as an outdoor couches to cuddle with them on. We met Rahn the day we dropped Charlie off and he was so friendly and Charlie warmed right up to him! We knew our guy was in great hands. Throughout his stay we got lots of videos and photos of Charlie playing with toys, cuddling up with them, videos of his walks, and even him playing with their dog and one other dog they were watching which was so sweet! We instantly felt comfortable like Charlie fit in and was right at home with them and knew that he was calm comfortable and relaxed there. I will absolutely be bringing Charlie back to Robin & Rahn for our future trips! So grateful to have found them ☺️”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Chula Vista
Lori took on my anxious reactive puppers without batting an eye. My dog who usually takes time to relax around new people dropped her guard upon only meeting her once before the drop off. She sent updates and videos which showed the happiest dog on the planet. Many people find my dog to be a lot and I was in a pinch to find someone who could manage her. Lori was super easy to coordinate and work with, as well as accommodating and kind. Cannot recommend her enough
We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Becky acclimated us at the last minute and took such wonderful care of Finley and Milo. She went above and beyond—taking them on hikes, celebrating Finley’s birthday, and loving them like they were her own. Knowing they were so happy and well cared for gave us complete peace of mind. We highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!
We had an amazing experience with Priscilla and Pascual! They took excellent care of our dog and kept us updated throughout the entire stay with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. We came home to a very happy pup! We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with them again!
I would highly recommend Clara for any of your pet sitting needs. My 16 yr old senior Shih Tzu really enjoyed her stay. I could see the playfulness in my dog the moment I dropped her off and felt completely relaxed throughout the entire process. I also really appreciated Clara's responsiveness and communication. Thank you!
We are very thankful to have found Jessica. I had hesitated on using this app after being cancelled on from another sitter but after her taking our request, I am amazed on how she can take both our dogs and make them feel at home. She is more than able to care and understand both our dogs needs. She gave us update every day with highlights of the day and photos on how they are doing. I really and truely appreciate her attentiveness and letting us know they are in good hands. Thank you Jessica for making it possible for us to relax on our mini vacation knowing you are caring for our pets!!
An amazing staycation for Stella with Katherine as always! She is so very accomodating, friendly, caring, and overall amazing. We can’t thank her enough taking care of our Stella, giving her lots of love and walks, and sharing her bff Hope with Stella too! We will always be choosing Katherine!
So, this was our 1st time leaving our new pup with a sitter. I can honesty say it was a great experience. Cherish kept in constant contact, asking questions about our pups personality, and ways to make him feel at home. She also sent pictures and videos throughout each day. This was perfect since our whole family missed him. Our pup came happy, healthy and he seemed to have a great time from all the pics and videos sent♡ Cherish was an amazing sitter and I would definitely recommend her to care for your furry baby while you are away.
We weren’t even sure our pups were going to want to come home! 😊 Chris was absolutely amazing and kept us updated at least twice a day, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dogs clearly had a blast and were so well cared for. This was a last-minute booking after multiple sitters fell through, and Chris truly came through for us. We’re so grateful and will definitely be using Chris as our #1 sitter from now on. 10/10 recommend!!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Chula Vista on Rover is $48.15 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,862 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Chula Vista. 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.
95% of Chula Vista 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 Chula Vista 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 Chula Vista 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 Chula Vista.
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 Chula Vista 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.
