âMariola was fantastic. She is super nice and very communicative. Bailey took a day to adjust to the new setting but she did a great job making her comfortable. The rest of the days she was normal thanks to Mariola. I would definitely use or recommend Mariola.â

âDanielle is great! I was late for pickup and felt terrible, but she was very sweet and accommodating. Also very communicative with tons of pictures as usual! Our two dogs seemed very happyâ

âVery kind and caring daughter and mother! They really took the time to let my nervous dog adjust during the meet and greet, listened carefully and asked questions. I also appreciate that they care about safety. My dog is quite nervous, but by the second day of boarding she was getting comfortable and showing more of her bouncy personality. They were communicative around feeding instructions and coordinating the meet and greet, drop off, and pick up. I would recommend Thais and Marlene! Thank you for your help taking care of Amber!â

âMatthew and Van Joseph took amazing care of our two pups. We got lots of lovely updates - going on walks, playing and napping, I could see they were well taken care of.â


âThere are several reasons why Tricia was a great sitter besides just that she seems like a really great person and animal lover- she responded in a timely matter to all our communications, she gave me daily updates with lots of pictures of my pup, she worked from home so I didn't to have to worry about him during the day, our trip was delayed and she was flexible in letting me pick him up late, and lastly she right along the way for us to the airport. Will definitely be reach out to Tricia next time we need a sitter!â

âMary is absolutely incredible. Our dog, Finn, is a quirky senior who is often slow to trust strangers - within 24 hours of being with Mary, he was asking her for pets and cuddles! That tells you all you need to know. She was extremely communicative, sent us lots of cute pictures and overall left us so at ease knowing our little guy was cared for. Canât recommend her enough!â

âDylan and his wife took amazing care of my sweet dog, Lulu. They went way, way above and beyond when I was in a bind and she needed extra care. They were thoughtful, responsive, and so kind. I recommend them to everyone I know that needs dog care!!!â

âRobert and Brian are great! They really take the time to understand your individual dog's needs before taking care of them. My dog Koda felt very comfortable around them and loved all of the walks/adventures he went on with them. Robert's communication with me throughout the stay was really helpful, especially when he had questions or unforeseen circumstances arose. I also loved all the videos and pictures they sent me while Koda stayed with them!â

âAlex was a last minute God-send for me and my pup, Maxwell. She was super flexible as I managed flight and life delays. Her home is located in a great place for doggie to run and play - right across the street from a beautiful park! And it was clear that both her and her kiddos are big time animal lovers. Her partner even pitched in to help re-stich his bed that was falling apart when I dropped him off. Above and beyond! I would definitely recommend Alex and her family to offer consistent, loving and fun care for your pets.â

âAlbina is a treasure! She took such great care of our boy, Odie, and sent daily updates with photos & videos. Her warmth & calm demeanor shine through & she treated Odie like he was her own. We wonât hesitate to book with her in the future! đśđžâ

âLen was fantastic! He took care of our pup Wisco after our last minute change of travel plans for 4th of July weekend. Our dog is older, had just started some medication, and also is afraid of fireworks (so not ideal to be away from home during 4th of July). That said, Len made sure to understand her sensitivities so he could create an environment where she felt safe/comfortable given the holiday weekend. He shared the cutest photos of her while we were away, and we came to a very happy dog. Would absolutely book with Len again.â

âHope is great with nervous dogs and makes them feel comfortable and loved. We booked her last minute for a week long trip caused by a family emergency, and it was so nice to not have to worry about our pup. Hope is very communicative and sends lots of pics and videos. Great sitter!â


âChristine went above and beyond to take great care of our dog! Buca had a great time and came home happy and healthy after staying with Christine. We will definitely be reaching out again for future visits.â


About: Iâve built a loyal client base since 2022 primarily through word of mouth and have many excellent references. I have experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, needs, and routines, and I consider myself well-prepared to handle a variety of situations. Iâm highly communicative, proactive, and attentive to each petâs individual needs. I always strive to go the extra mile for my clients, making sure both pets and their people feel heard, respected, and confident in their care. This work brings me a great deal of joy, and I genuinely love getting to know and care for each animal. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide pet care throughout the week and travel across the Bay Area for in-home sits. Pets are also welcome to stay with me at my Emeryville loft. I have an 8-year-old Chihuahua-Terrier mix who is friendly with most animals and mostly keeps to himself. I prioritize regular walks, play, enrichment, and plenty of affection throughout the day. When caring for dogs in their home, I aim for 2â3 walks daily on safe, familiar routes; there is also a dog park directly across from my loft if thatâs a good fit for the dog. I follow each clientâs care instructions closely, communicate proactively if questions come up, and keep clients updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: Hey Iâm Izzy! Iâm here to treat your fur babies as if theyâre mine. When Iâm with your dog I like to stimulate their mind by bringing treats and toys and have fun with some training (of course with your permission first!). I am currently a self employed dog trainer so I do know how to handle different types of dogs. My main experience is training and I frequently work with service dogs. I have experience with all kinds of temperaments so donât be shy to let me know if your dog has an anxiety issue or is overly excited. My upmost important priority is making your dog feel as comfortable as possible when he or she is under my care. I canât wait to meet all these beautiful faces! I am also a student and still new to the bay area. Luckily at the moment my schedule is rather flexible, I can potentially adjust my schedule for your pet on certain occasions! I will follow whatever instructions you give me when I stay over at your home. There will be constant supervision when let outside or on a walk. Your dog will have a warm bed (or crate) to sleep in and their mental + physical needs will be met everyday!
âMadeleine was amazing with my senior dog. She has a calm, sweet energy, and she knew how to make him feel comfortable and safe right away. I appreciated getting updates while I was away, and Madeleine was very understanding and flexible around pickup. Total pro, Diller and look forward to future visits with Madeleine!â

âMaya (Anchisa) was an exceptional sitter for our furry son. We took a 5 day family vacation and she watched our 17 lb dog. Maya sent multiple updates every day and seemed to like taking as many photos and videos of our little guy as we do! We feel very comfortable trusting Maya with our dog.â

The median cost per night for dog boarding in Emeryville is $75

Albina was great! She watched our two mini dachshunds for 5 days. One of our dogs is afraid of new people and has never been able to use a sitter before. Albina was able to win him over within the first few hours. Both of our dogs were totally relaxed and having a great time the entire time! We also loved getting updates each day. I would definitely recommend her services.

Bryce took perfect care of Yoshi, I couldnât be more satisfied. We first did a meeting date with nebula (his dog) and they seemed to do well together so I booked him. Bryceâs communication was great and I felt that Yoshi was in really good hands the whole time. Yoshi is still recovering from an injury and has to take medication and supplements and Bryce was very patient, caring, and attentive to my baby girl. A dog with an injury can be a complex thing but Bryce really gave me the reassurance I needed to enjoy my vacation. Bryce sent updates the whole time and I can tell he puts a lot of thought and care into our animals. It was a perfect sitter experience for me. My flight coming back home from my 10 day trip was delayed a bit and Bryce was incredibly flexible with the mishap. Iâm hoping to book Bryce again and I highly recommend him to anyone thatâs looking for help with their fur babies. Thanks again Bryce! Yoshi looks very healthy and happy after her stay, itâs like she had a little vacation too! Donât hesitate to book this guy!

1st day with Mariola and my 1 yr old fur baby loved it. Was very happy upon arrival and departure... she had a quick meet and greet a few days before, leading up to the visit and was excited to see Tino again (Mariola's 4 y/o doggy). We will be trying an overnight stay soon, with a plan to have her stay for a 2 wk vacation I am away.

We feel so lucky that we found Brian and Robert? Within moments of meeting them, our dog was happy and comfortable. Though our dog will sometimes skip a meal due to anxiety when he first meets a new caregiver, not so with Robert! He ate all of his meals! In addition to the many great walks and outings, Robert provided us with many videos and photos of their adventures together. So appreciate all that they did for him!

Linette was awesome! Molly has severe separation anxiety but Linette took extra time and care with her making sure she felt safe and secure. She took lots of pictures and videos and took Molly on adventures that she loved đ I will definitely book with Linette again!

Sara and Evan took such amazing care of our 7 month old puppy!! It was our first time leaving him with someone other than family and they sent us regular updates and photos (great photography skills too!) and made our trip relaxing as we knew he was having the best time. We will definitely be booking them again!

Hong and her husband and daughter took great care of Bowser. They were really communicative and kept sending pictures and videos through the entire time. And the videos even had background music. I had to ask them to send them to some separately since they were so good. Would totally leave Bowser with them again.

Boarding my little elder dog with Mary was truly the best experience ever! I was nervous to leave her with a new person, but the stay was flawless. Mary (and murphy) immediately welcomed and settled my pup in to her home & sent many sweet photos and updates. I was immediately relaxed -and so appreciative. Mary is communicative and was so warm and gentle with my pup. Drop and pick up were organized and efficient, and my dog was completely unfazed and relaxed a week later when I returned for her. Could not recommend Mary enough for a safe, loving, individualized and a homey stay for your pup. I have already re-booked another stay. Thank you Mary (and murphy)!

Karen is great, I always feel safe and at ease when Efv is at her house. She recently cared for him the day before CCL (that's doggy ACL) surgery and she took great care in making sure she knew how to care for him with limited mobility. She is reliable and pleasant!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Emeryville on Rover is $64.2 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,932 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Emeryville. 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.
92% of Emeryville 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 Emeryville 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 dogâs confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Emeryville 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 Emeryville.
Tip: You can upload your dogâs routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Emeryville sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of youâand 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 dogâs vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitterâs 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, youâre 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.
