“Amanda was simply amazing! She watched my sweet husky girl for a few days and sent me pictures of her playing and relaxing. She kept me updated daily and very responsive. My husky can be a picky eater and Amanda was able to prep her wet food as instructed. Will be using Amanda again in the future!”
“Duya took excellent care of our Shiba Inu, Haru. Throughout the stay, we received daily updates, including photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind and allowed us to see how well Haru was doing. We provided a general outline of Haru’s care routine, and Duya followed it attentively. Her communication, reliability, and genuine care for Haru were greatly appreciated. We would be happy to trust Duya with Haru again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter.”
“Winnie had the best time staying with David, and we would absolutely use him again! He was very communicative, sent us lots of photos and updates, and followed our instructions carefully—especially with Winnie’s diet, since she has a very sensitive stomach. She got tons of activity and playtime with David’s dogs and came home exhausted and happy, which is always a good sign! We felt completely comfortable knowing she was being well cared for. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl!”
“Emily & Sam were fantastic with our dog Enzo. They sent us daily picture updates of Enzo and had a nice yard for the dogs to play and run around in. Would highly recommend them!”
“This was our girls 6th stay with Estella! They’ve gotten so comfy they jump with excitement when we tell them we are going to visit her! She takes great care of them. They always come back relaxed, rested, and as clean as when we left them. We get pictures, videos and updates during their entire stay and she feeds and cares for our girls just as we would at home.”
“Stefanie & Claudius were able to watch our dog Arya on short notice. Arya very much enjoyed her stay. I appreciate the photos and videos they sent of Arya enjoying her stay with them. This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. Thank you both so much!”
“Huina was excellent and my dog was very happy and well taken care of! My dog is a rescue and a bit scared of being touched by strangers and Huina respected her boundaries well! She sent me timely videos and pics of Tara and made the entire process very comfortable for me!”
“Leng always kept us up to date on our dog’s day. Lefty is pretty sociable and loves all the attention she gave. I especially loved that she kept our little guy busy and supervised. Will book her again.”
“Annabelle is great! she took great care of my dog and he came home happy! she sent lots of updates and pictures the entire stay and I highly recommend her as a sitter for your dog!”
“When it comes to my babies I’m definitely a helicopter mom so finding a sitter while spending two weeks in Japan was stressful. Thank god I ran across Xutao and gave him a chance based on his outstanding reviews. He did not disappoint. He treated my puppies so good that I was skeptical they might not want to return home! Xutao kept us updated daily with pics and even fed them a digestive meal while there that definitely helped. Next time I travel I will definitely be using Xutao and I’m sure my poodles will be excited to return!”
“Lucy and her family were very caring and sweet to my lil pup, Bodie. They sent photos on a daily basis and let me know how he was doing while I was on vacation. I’ll definitely be hiring them 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!!!”
“We can always count on Allen to treat our Oscar with the utmost care and the daily picture updates keep our minds at ease! We’re very thankful we found them to watch our Oscar boy!”
“Once again, Zuko had a great time with Adam and Franny. I can’t recommend them enough. My friend used them the same weekend as Zuko and they both had a great time. Thanks again Adam and Franny!”
About: My first dog was a saint bernard. Since then I've had dogs of various sizes. Good experience with big dogs. I have 2 dogs of my own, a pitt and a terrier, both which have been raised since puppy. I can administer medicine and bathe them! I am a college student who does online, so I am home most days of the week and weekends. I have no other jobs at the moment so I will be able to come pet sit for any time of day! I have 2 other friendly dogs and 4 cats who do well with dogs. Litter boxes are cleaned everyday, food and water is checked on everyday. I am good with getting stubborn pets into their crates safely and how to get an animal to pay attention when it's needed.
“Ana and her family was great! Very kind, responsive and good to our dogs. I had no worries with them being there. She updated with photos and her backyard is AMAZING! Your dog will have so much fun sniffing around back there!”
“This was Bonnie’s first stay with Amanda and her family. Bonnie was well taken care of and came home happy. I also enjoyed all the photos that Amanda sent. I have already booked future stays. Piece of mind is everything when someone is watching your pup. Thank you!”
“Darlene is hands down the best sitter we’ve found on here! She took such amazing care of our kitty and we could tell he was super well cared for. And she actually sent so many pictures and updates, we had such peace of mind on our vacation. We will absolutely be booking with her again any time we need to!!”
“Excellent dog care! They sent me photos and videos every day and ensured that my dogs were well taken care of. Not only did they provide a safe and welcoming place for both of them to sleep, but they also made sure my dogs never felt lonely. They were constantly played with and allowed to get their energy out. 11/10”

April was amazing! Gave me updates when she could and gave Lucky a good report card at the end of the stay. Lucky can be a hit or miss with his temperament. One minute he’s anxious and the other he’s chill 😅. Glad he felt safe with her. Felt super comfortable at drop off and pick up. Will be trusting her with Lucky for the next time we need a sitter.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Fontana on Rover is $48.84 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 2,166 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.
97% 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.
