Nia was not just a wonderful and communicative caretaker for our pup, she was also a total lifesaver when cancelled flights completely messed up our timeline. I’m super grateful for her flexibility and her professionalism. Thanks Nia!!

I have been searching for sitters as wonderful as Susie and Galen for a while. It's very obvious that they love dogs and enjoy caring for them. They made my time away so fantastic because I knew everyone was well taken care of and got regular photo updates. They were, by far, the best experience I've had on Rover and I feel really lucky to have found them.

Holly was absolutely amazing! We have a 12 year old dog, Odie, who hates change. Every time we have gone out of town and left him with a sitter, we come back to a stressed out dog, who has nervously bitten off all the fur on his feet and his tail. When we came back this time, he was happy, healthy, and looked like he didn't want to leave Holly's care. He had clearly been spoiled with love, attention and care at Holly's house. She sent us daily updates on our dog including pictures, and was incredibly responsive and flexible. Her dog was a sweetheart and patiently let Odie follow her around and take naps with her. When we got home, my partner said "It looks like we found Odie's dog sitter." I will be 100% requesting Holly the next time we need someone to take care of Odie.

Cassie stepped in at the last minute after another sitter canceled and she did an amazing job with my anxious/reactive pup! She kept me updated with photos and did well with our somewhat tricky medication schedule. I especially loved that she had a large crate in case Winnie needed alone time, but she also gave lots of snuggles on the couch. One of the biggest perks though is that she was able to play fetch in her backyard as a way to give Winnie attention and exercise while avoiding other dog interactions (she has dog-related reactivity issues). Winnie was happy and relaxed when I returned. We’d definitely recommend Cassie to others!

Natasha was incredibly attentive to our 8 month old pup and communicated regular updates! I appreciated that she asked how frequently we wanted updates to help set expectations upfront. She made sure our pup was not just well taken care of but engaged and exercised regularly, plus she kept up with training which was a bonus. We even went through travel delays getting home and she was flexible to accommodate the extra time, it was great knowing our dog was taken care of and didn't add to the stress of travel. We would absolutely use Natasha again.

She provided photos and videos throughout the time she had him and also made sure he was safely exposed to so many different things while we were away. Even with a last minute flight delay, she added an extra night for us and was so understanding and flexible. We will definitely rebook with her for our future boarding needs. Thank you Ilsa!!

My energetic 3 year old cattle dog Sweet Pea just spent 3 days with Antonio and his other dogs, and as always had a great time. Antonio has been caring for her for about a year and a half, for both boarding and daycare. Sweet Pea loves staying with him as is evident from the videos he sends. He has a nice size backyard with a high fence, which is perfect for an active dog. I highly recommend him if you're looking for a great dog sitter.

FAQs for Boarding - Emerald Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Emerald Hills on Rover is $49.95 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 4,018 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Emerald Hills. 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 Emerald Hills 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 Emerald Hills 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 Emerald Hills 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 Emerald Hills.

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 Emerald Hills 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.
