Communicative and personable. My dog seemed happy for a 7 day stay.. and was even tired upon her return. No complaints and would work with Nathaniel again.

Although I contacted Lovell & Lucas J. at almost the last minute (I ran into scheduling problems with the sitter I had set up), I was able to meet Lucas for a meet and greet right away. We set up the dates and everything went super smoothly. Lucas has a dog of his own. He clearly loves dogs, making mine feel very comfortable from the start. I had to go away for a wedding. Lucas kept me informed with messages and photos the whole time he had my pooch. His dog and mine slept on the same bed/couch. She was the perfect hostess. Lucas has a lovely yard and house - very accommodating! This was our first time with Lovell and Lucas J. I know we'll be back!

About: I work for a professional dog service that's been open 10+ years with a private dog park. I'm looking for extra work other then working at the dog park. I also do two dog pack walks after the park with the dogs that cannot go to the due to a variety of issues including aggression and/or anxiety. Whenever there is an issue I am the go to for these dogs who love me with all their heart and I in return. Currently work from 9am-2:30pm Monday through Thursday and Friday 9am-12pm as a dog handler so I am available for afternoon/evenings. I am also free on the weekends. I have a three bedroom house with a large backyard with tall wooden fences and a chain link fence to access it.

Rita was amazing with Purdy! They played with her and gave her all the attention Purdy wanted. Purdy was excited to come home but is definitely missing being with Rita. It was my first time using Rover and will definitely use it again solely because of Rita. Thanks Rita for taking good care of our Purdy.

He said he is not one, but Joshua is a dog whisperer! Daisy loved Joshua and she seems so comfortable with him. Immediately, she felt comfortable and safe when we dropped Daisy off. Joshua was professional and made sure there was a process to drop-off and pick-up. We received daily updates and photos. This was our first Rover experience and we cannot ask for anyone better! We will definitely consider Joshua for future boarding and sitting.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every animal. Friends and family have trusted me for years to care for their pets, and I treat each one as if they were my own. I also have experience working at a wildlife rehabilitation center, where I cared for animals with compassion and patience. That experience strengthened my understanding of animal behavior and reinforced my passion for providing safe, loving care. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, or a calm and attentive sitter, I'm committed to making them feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I currently work from home and live by myself, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. My schedule allows me to accommodate your pet's routine, whether that's walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply keeping them company. I'm happy to work with you to make sure your pet receives the care and attention they're used to while you're away. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and at home. I live in a secure apartment and have access to a very walkable neighborhood, making it easy to provide regular potty breaks, walks, and exercise throughout the day. I always follow each pet's usual routine, including feeding schedules, playtime, and any special care instructions, so they feel as comfortable as possible. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, I make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and personalized care while you're away.

Ross was awesome! From our initial meeting, he asked all the right questions about the care and personality of my pup. During my pups stay, Ross was great about sending daily photos and updates on how my little guy was managing with my absence. I could see from the photos that my pup and Ross's pup were getting along really well... This left me feeling very comfortable that my pup was enjoying his 'vacation'. Thanks so much Ross! We look forward to Baxter staying with you again soon!

Kaja took in our 5 month old puppy last minute so our family could go out of town for a funeral. Once I chatted with her on the phone, I knew our puppy would be in good hands. It was a relief to have one less thing to worry about. Kaja was incredibly communicative and sent us photos and videos. Would absolutely rebook.

FAQs for Boarding - El Sobrante

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in El Sobrante on Rover is $64.38 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 5,440 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across El Sobrante. 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.

93% of El Sobrante 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 El Sobrante 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 El Sobrante 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 El Sobrante.

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 El Sobrante 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.
