“I woulds like this to remain a well kept secret to guarantee I would always be able to book with Linda S but that would be very selfish. Linda and her husband are naturals, very relaxed and calm in their interaction with the dogs. The other dogs that were there when I dropped Rosie off were content and happy and it was the same, Rosie included, when I picked her up 3 days later. The property is beautiful and dogs are free to explore and play. Rosie didn't go to a boarding kennel, she had a doggie spa vacation!”
“What a wonderful sitter! The previous reviews were spot on. My dog was extremely well taken care of and came home happier for her experience. The photos that I received of her playful romping were breathtaking and truly reassuring. He was very flexible and hospitable, and I'll never take my dog to a kennel again. Will be using Grant in the future! Highly recommended.”
“Nicole and Jerrod were great! Our 75 lb Golden loved playing with their Lab, Charlie. Nicole sent regular updates with pics. But more importantly we felt they genuinely cared for our fur baby, Rafa.”
“Amanda was reliable front start to finish. She was commutative throughout our arranged time. Also sent pictures random throughout the day. Our lincoln seemed at home with their littles. 😀 I hope to be able to use her in near future.”
“Alexis's place is in a secluded and safe place with huge lawn and play area for dogs. She is extremely patient and kind with older dogs like ours and has shown willingness to go the extra mile caring for them. Hidden gem and definitely recommendable.”
“This was the first time our little dog was going to stay overnight in a new place. Pam was helpful and communicated how he was doing as the week progressed. She was so kind! Our dog was healthy and happy when we picked him up.”
About: Hi there! I’m Barr, a wife and mother with a lifelong love for animals. We have a sweet 15-year-old Jack Russell named Indie, and I honestly can’t remember a time in my life when I didn’t have a pet. Animals have always been a huge part of our family, and our compassion for them is one of the reasons we chose a vegan lifestyle. I also worked as a veterinary assistant for two years, where I gained hands-on experience caring for pets and supporting their health and well-being. As a mom, I’m now looking to earn a little extra income while doing something that truly matters to me—spending time with and caring for animals. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m a stay-at-home mom, so my schedule is incredibly flexible. This is one of the reasons why I wanted to start doing this and would be perfect for any spontaneous short or long trips! I have a spacious backyard, but unfortunately, it’s not fenced. To keep our dog, Indie, who is incredibly friendly with all animals, safe, I usually take them for three walks each day. We shower her with cuddles and treats from my husband, our baby girl and I each and every day ☺️
“Victoriya was amazing! She was available last minute to take care of my dog for 10 days. Because our original dog sitter fell through, I was nervous about dropping my dog off. Throughout my trip, she sent me updates and a lot of pictures. She made me feel at ease and I didn’t stress about my pup while I was gone. I will 1000% be using her again in the future!!”
“Leslie and her husband treated our Sherman as one of their own! He had a great time playing with their pup and enjoyed getting all the special attention! With the numerous pics taken I can tell he was on his very own vacation! Definitely recommend Leslie!”
“I am so very thankful to find Rover thru a friend's referral and to find Kris and Joe. This was my first experience with a pet sitter and it was great! I got texts and photos and I enjoyed my camping trip without stressing on the dogs at all. They fed them wonderful homemade food and my fur kids got to play I will certainly use them again and again!”
“Sandra took amazing care of our golden retriever. She has a perfect set up for doggie care. She is caring and attentive. I highly recommend her and will definitely leave our dog with her again when we go out of town.”
“They’re just the sweetest couple and so great with Bentley and they sent me updates and just cared for him and loved on him so much and I am so grateful that they were able to do last minute overnight care. I couldn’t recommend them enough! They were so communicative and they were amazing from start to finish and so accommodating, and I honestly couldn’t think of more great things to say”
“Cooper did not do well in a kennel. We were told Not to come back at two different kennels as Cooper barked all night. Aron stays in the room with the dogs and so Cooper, who needs a human, did great. He also got to play with many other dogs which he loved! We are already booked twice more with Aron.”
“Kelsey was super responsive and great about sending pictures and updates! My dog had a great time playing with her dog and the other dogs in her care, and was exhausted when he got him (the way he gets when he plays all day!) The environment was safe and fun, prefect for my playful guy.”
“Allie and her family were wonderful! I really appreciated the daily photos of Stella while we were gone. The communication was great. You can tell they love the doggos they care for, which makes it easier to leave your dog behind.”

I can’t even begin to say how important it was for me to go out of town and not have to stress on how my Brownie is being taken care of. I wanted him to get attention, socializing, and have a good size area to be able to play. 100% got everything I was looking for with Nina and Co. Truely a home away from home for my Boy! Thank you Nina!!
My furbaby was actually sad after leaving Jon's and that makes me so happy. That means he was well taken care of and well loved during his stay because he has only ever been that way after leaving Nana's (where he's very spoiled). I will certainly leave my furbaby with Jon again if I'm making another trip that I can't take Scooby.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Colfax on Rover is $53.5 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 441 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Colfax. 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 Colfax 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 Colfax 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 Colfax 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 Colfax.
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 Colfax 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.
