“We had a wonderful experience with April and couldn’t recommend her more highly. She watched our two dogs for a couple of days and was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. April is a trained professional, which really showed in how confidently and calmly she handled the dogs. She kept us consistently updated with pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We were especially impressed that our dogs did great interacting with other dogs under her care, which really speaks to her skill because our dogs are anti-social grumps! April is friendly, helpful, and very reasonably priced for the level of care she provides. We felt completely comfortable leaving our dogs with her and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Eunice was wonderful and super flexible with times! I appreciated the fact that she and her husband were able to pick Lenny up and drop him off safely. ☺️ I do wish we would have gotten more updates/pictures throughout the day but knowing that he was not alone at home for 24hrs and that he was with such caring and communicative people was such a peace of mind!! Will definitely book again ! 🤗”
“Allen was fantastic! We’ve only left our puppy a few times, but after this experience, we’ll definitely be booking with him again. Our puppy was so happy and excited in his care, which gave us great peace of mind. Allen is also extremely punctual and communicative, we highly recommend!”
“The service is above and beyond. They contacted me and updated me with pictures.

“The was our pet’s first time boarding. Huina reassured us that he would be very well cared for, and he was! She provided video and text messages to keep us informed about his progress. He adjusted and appeared happy. I am planning to use her services in the future.”
“Jubin did such a phenomenal job taking care of my pet. She went far and beyond to provide the best care for her always keeping me updated throughout the stay. She followed all the instructions given on my pet’s care and was always very communicative of everything my pet was doing gave me such peace of mind if you are looking for a good trustworthy pet sitter she is the one! you won’t regret it I will definitely rebook again with Jubin. 🐾❤️”
“This is my first time using the app to book a sitter and I would 100% book Alicia again! She was so sweet to me and took amazing care of my 2 puppies. I appreciate very much the effort she puts in and the updates she sends. I’m really happy she made sure my puppies had lots of fun!”
“I was nervous to leave them, but they were in good hands. Latie was understanding when I ran late during drop off and pick up. I received photos and updates during their stay and would definitely use her as a sitter again.”
“Krystal was Excellent! Krystal was accomodating on last minute notice. Krystal cared for my 3 babies as if they were her own. She updated me with pictures and made sure my babies stayed well hydrated, fed, and loved. Even with my geriatric chihuaahua Sasha who needed extra TLC and required taking medications. Krystal updated us every step of the way. I highly recommend her services and my partner and I will definitely request her for our next trip out of town! Thank you Krystal fom Sasha, Sochi, Taz and their Mamas❤️!”

“Nicole is very attentive and followed up with us in timely manner. She made sure that our baby is comfortable though it is the first time we are keeping him outside at a sitters place. She went extra mile to feed our baby personally to make sure that he ate much. Nicole has shared the photos and videos at regular intervals which made us more comfortable and see our baby is well taken care. Thanks!!”
“I 100% recommend Xutao. We recently left our dog under his care and received constant updates and could see how happy our dog was through out the entire stay. I'm glad we found Xutao and will definitely hire him again!”
“Hana was a great doggie Mamma when we were away for a week. The dogs looked happy and in spite of very hot weather they got in their exercise and usual stimulation and cuddles. Thank you Hana!!!”
“First time leaving my baby, and she did amazing! My Max is super anxious and shy, but she was so patient with him and really helped him feel comfortable. When we got home, he was still his happy self, which made me feel so reassured. ❤️ She even gave Max a toy and a dog bowl mat, which was so thoughtful! Definitely using her services again. Highly recommend! 🐾”
“I had an amazing experience with Alejandro as my pet sitter! He and his wife watched my husky, Rocky, for two days, and from the moment we met, he was very welcoming and attentive. Alejandro introduced me to his home, made Rocky feel right at ease, and kept me updated constantly with pictures and messages. He truly showed so much care for Rocky throughout the weekend. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and I highly recommend Alejandro!”

“Bonnie had four other dogs to play with during this stay that kept her busy and tired! Amanda even had to deal with some stomach issues Bonnie had (sorry!). I always feel good knowing she is under Amanda’s care. Thank you :-)”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fontana
April did a great job watching Chase while I was out of town. I don’t trust many people with my dog—usually only family watches her—but after talking with April, I felt comfortable leaving Chase in her care. Chase seemed comfortable with her right away and actually wanted to go with her instead of trying to leave with me, which says a lot! April sent me photos throughout her stay, and Chase looked happy and well cared for. She and her apprentice were both friendly and welcoming, and I would feel comfortable trusting her with Chase again.
Tania was sending me updates daily and had very good communication. She set up a meet and greet the night before to ensure Bear was a right fit and to go over Bears special needs. She managed to put his wheel chair on and ensure he gets potty breaks every 2 hrs. I ended up picking up Bear later than the scheduled time and she accommodated the pick up time and I paid her another night per her boarding rate just for the last minute flexibility. Thank you Tania will book again in the future!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Fontana on Rover is $48.84 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 2,197 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Fontana. 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.
96% of Fontana 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 Fontana 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 Fontana 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 Fontana.
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 Fontana 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.
