“I’m so happy to have found a great dog sitter for my pups!! Our dogs came home happy and healthy even though one of our dogs usually gets very sad when we leave him. She was able to get them to eat and relax while we were away. Thanks!!”
“Excellent experience! Buffy loved Deana and came home happy and relaxed. I really appreciated the updates and the photos throughout the boarding and it's clear that Deana genuinely loved and cares for the dogs. High recommend and will definitely book again!”
“I love knowing that my pups are having a great time too while we’re out of town. Kathy is great at sending pics and updates. My 2 dogs always seem so happy and relaxed after spending time with Kathy and her family. ❤️”
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life! I grew up caring for many animals…cats, dogs, fish, quail, chickens and a rabbit. I currently have 3 dogs and a tortoise. I can’t imagine life without the love of animals! I have a lot of experience with puppies and senior dogs with medical needs. Since I work from home, I am available during most work hours. I am also a full time mom, so I’m typically unavailable during school drop-off and pick-up times, but otherwise flexible availability. I would love to spend time with your pet in whatever capacity you need. I can walk, play fetch, take to the park, or just sit and cuddle. I can feed, bathe, and distribute medication. I am able to just stop in, or stay in your home for a number of hours, but am not able to stay overnight.
“Dipankar and Nagma were wonderful with our 2-year-old GSD. They kept us updated with photos all day and gave us a full report at pickup. Our dog clearly loved them—he even tried to follow Nagma back inside when we were leaving! An amazing experience. Thank you both!"”
“Another great visit for our fur baby! Thank you Cheridyn and Gil for taking such good care of Koda on super short notice. We love the clear and prompt communication and are thankful for all the pictures and videos we get. ❤️”
“My dog Daisy has some anxiety so it’s always stressful for her to go to a sitter she does not know. I was stressed too but Daisy warmed up to Heather right away and was a happy girl coming back! Heather responds fast and was flexible our schedule. Can’t thank you enough 😄 highly recommend!”
About: I've been Twixie's dog dad for six years, she's an SPCA rescue, so I know firsthand what it takes to help a dog feel safe, loved, and settled into a new routine from day one. I've trained her myself from scratch, and she now knows sit, stay, stop, down, roll over, high five, and even "boop," so I'm comfortable working through training and behavior, not just basic care. I also took care of family dogs growing up in young adulthood, so I'm used to adjusting to another dog's habits and quirks, not just my own. Beyond hands-on care, I compile videos of my dog, so paying close attention to dogs all day isn't a chore for me, it's already how I spend my time. Pet care is a genuine priority for me right now, not something squeezed around a job. I'm reliably available from 10am to 3pm, which is plenty of time for walks, play, and attentive care without rushing anything. That's a consistent window you can actually count on, not just "whenever I have time." Your dog would be cared for at my house, which has a fully fenced backyard — plenty of safe space to run and play — plus a park right across the street for longer walks. My own dog Twixie, a friendly SPCA rescue, is there too, so your pup won't be alone, she's used to sharing space with other dogs. I'm also able to crate your dog if that's part of their routine or if you'd prefer it. I pay attention to each dog's own routine, feeding, and boundaries rather than treating every dog the same way.
“Lauren and Mike were amazing and gave us peace of mind when we were on vacation. They sent updates and pictures throughout the week and they treated our dog like their own. We already booked with them again! Thank you Lauren and Mike!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I fill in for my daughter when she is on vacation. We also have 3 dogs, 4 birds and a cat in home now. Can’t ask for a more rewarding job. Animals just fill our lives with joy and love. I help my daughter with pet care in home and feel this would be a good fit for me. We have a well fenced and secure home for pets. Double gated entrance so dogs cannot get to the front door. Our animals get along well with others.
“Jessica and her son was amazing with Wolfe he made lots of great new friends and got lots of playtime. Jessica was great on giving us updates and sending pics. Would book again.”
“Thank you, Kim & Chris, for taking such great care of our little Mazzie. I have terrible anxiety leaving our rescue pup. But with your loving care, all of my anxiety went away knowing that Mazzie would be well cared for. We look forward to booking with you again.”
About: Married couple with two helpful teens and a really cool Siberian Husky. My background working with animals includes the Kauai Humane Society where I spent over a decade caring/training and assisting the Vet clinic. I worked independently doing in house visits and I also boarded pets in our home. I can administer meds and have experience with injections. I will not board more one dog unless it is part of your pack. Your pup or pups will be exclusively with Kano only. I work from home. Between my husband and I we are always home. We do not leave dogs outside unattended or alone. We would provide 24 hour care in our quiet gated neighborhood. Fenced yard with artificial grass for potty. We will always supervise your best friends and treat them like family. We always supervise Kano when he is outside. Walks are a must for our Husky so if your pup is willing Kano is a go.
“Mariah was great with our babies. Her location was easily accessible and clean. Good atmosphere for our fur babies. Checked in regularly and had a great vibe and positive attitude. Thank you for taking care of our fur babies.”
“I cannot recommend Monisa and David enough! We boarded our dog Charlie for two weeks with them, and he was treated like family. Monisa and David were incredibly communicative, they kept in touch with us frequently, sending updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. It was very obvious Charlie enjoyed being with them ! He appeared happy and healthy upon our return . We will absolutely be booking with them again!”
“Julie was very kind to Reepicheep and it was clear she wanted her to be comfortable. Caring for a senior cat with multiple medical conditions can be challenging, and I’ve realized that I personally value very detailed communication throughout a stay.”
About: I love all pets ready to take care of anyone’s animals that needs me. I am also available to house sit. Trustworthy and ready to walk your dogs I work and go to school online so I have lots of time to be with your pets and I’m more than happy to walk your dogs. I have two dogs as well that are very friendly that get walks daily. I love being with my pets. I also have a cat
“I had a great experience with this Abuja! They were very prompt in responding to all my questions and were incredibly flexible when my schedule changed. I really appreciated how they kept me updated throughout the stay with messages, photos, and videos of my fur-baby, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that my dog was well cared for and happy. I would definitely book with Ana again and highly recommend them to other pet parents!”

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Discovery Bay is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $71 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.

As of October 2026, there are 1,920 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Discovery Bay. 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.
94% of sitters in Discovery Bay 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 Discovery Bay 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 Discovery Bay.
<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 Discovery Bay 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.
