“Marquis and Luis watched my 3 dogs over the weekend and did a great job. The dogs seemed happy and like they had a great time over there. We will definitely ask them to dog sit again!”
“Chanelle is a very sweet person and she treated my dogs like part of her family. She sent me a lot of pics of my babies while I was on vacation. She even dealt with one of my dogs forgetting where to potty and didn’t tell me about it until I returned from my trip. That saved me a lot of potential stress. I totally recommend her.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life—mostly dogs, with a few cats along the way. I have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs, including one who needed a wheelchair, and I’m comfortable administering medications and handling special medical needs. I currently have two dogs of my own, and I truly love all dogs like family. When your pup is with me, they’ll be treated like one of my own! Also, I’m active duty Army (visit wife and daughter down here on the weekend) so I definitely trustworthy and first aid trained if needed! I have a flexible schedule to work with clients needs! Scheduling times is not a problem. We can discuss drop in times etc in the chat. I’ll care for your home and your dogs as if they were my own. I’m reliable, respectful, and highly adaptable to all pet sizes, breeds, temperaments, and medical needs.
About: I have a lot of experience in pet-sitting and dog walking. I have had a strong interest in dogs since I was a kid. I've pet sit for a lot of friends and family since I was a child. I'm known within our family and friends to get animals out of their shell and to get them to not be shy. I love to care for them and give them lots of attention. My passion is to work with animals. I am also good at training dogs the basic manners. I'm very likable by animals. I've worked with animals for almost 7 years so far. I want to gain more experience to get a long term job in animals care. I would like to help care for yours. My schedule as of right now if very flexible, I do gig work to make ends meet so I do have tons of free time to watch your pets! I have 2 emotional support dogs with me, for their exercise, I take them out at least on one long walk a day and have a dedicated hour every day to play with them and I also makes sure they have play dates with other dogs. With yours, I would do some of the same things I do with mine.
“Joselyn is absolutely incredible! I’m extremely picky when it comes to finding the right pet sitter for my two fur babies, so trusting someone with them doesn’t come easily. I was worried because my spoiled pups can be a handful, they don’t always get along with other dogs, one of them likes to mark his territory, and they need potty breaks every 2–3 hours. But Joselyn handled everything with patience, care, and understanding. The best part is that she treated my dogs as if they were her own. I could tell they were loved and happy while they were with her. She gave me complete peace of mind during our trip, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. I highly recommend Joselyn to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pets with genuine love and compassion! Winni Z”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Fort Irwin on Rover is $38.85 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 11 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Fort Irwin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Fort Irwin 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 Fort Irwin.
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 Fort Irwin 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.
