“I can’t say enough great things about Diana. My dogs felt right at home from the start, and it was clear they were treated with love and care the entire time. I received updates and photos, and seeing how happy and comfortable they were gave me total peace of mind. It truly felt like a home-away-from-home for them. I highly recommend Diana and will definitely be booking again!”
“Our dog came back happy, healthy, clean, and exhausted from playtime! Nikcole always responds quickly, provides pics and updates, and is consistently flexible when our plans change. This is our second booking with her. Highly recommend.”
“Sydney seems to love Sunny and comes home very happy. I would recommend her to anyone. She has the perfect dog set up and Sydney goes to his Beach house a lot now! ”
“Ning was amazing with Luna! It was my first time leaving my 6 month old puppy for a weekend and she sent lots of picture & video updates so I could feel connected to Luna and see how she was adjusting in a new environment. Ning paid attention to Luna’s body language and made her feel comfortable at her own pace, and I could tell Luna had a great time. I will definitely be booking again!”
“Vanessa watched my Toki for me for 3 nights and she did the most amazing job! I like to keep Toki clean and she came back to me in very pristine condition. I feel so comfortable leaving Toki with Vanessa, I’ll definitely book again 🎉”
“Heather did a wonderful job of taking care of both of our fur babies (cat and dog). She went out of her way to bring the dog for the cat visits so the our cat can play with and have the company of our dog. She also spent time playing with both of our animals. I found Heather to be extremely responsive answering questions and sending pictures. She also showed us a better way to give our cat his meds and took the time to send us a video. We will definitely have Heather as our go to for both of our fur babies because we know when Heather is taking care of them, they are in the best hands possible!”
“My dog, Bailey, had a great stay with Victoria. She stayed in touch with me assuring me Bailey was fine. I knew she was in good care. No problems, easy to interact with. I would recommend her!!”
About: I have been a “Dog Mom” for over 20 years. Often having multiple dogs of different sizes and breeds. I have handled deaf dogs- using sign language for commands, bells on door handles for dogs to signal outside time and understanding quiet, calm environments for senior dogs. I currently have no dogs in the house and I miss it so much! I’m excited to help your family any way I can. I’m a stay at home mom with one 9 year old boy who shares in my love for dogs. My child will be at school during the school year. My days are flexible to accommodate your needs. I’m happy to send photos/videos of your fur baby as often as you’d like! I have a small outdoor patio that is partly shaded for those dogs who love a good sun- bathing. Out front there is some grass and I have a leash attached to large tree if they prefer grass time. (I will be outside with them the entire time) I can accommodate crate training at night or snuggle with them in my king size bed! We are an A/C controlled home!!
“Thanks for taking good care of my boy!! Great communication…Al sent some pics to reassure that Rocco was enjoying his stay. He seemed to feel right at 🏡. Much appreciated!!!”
“Patricia did a great job watching our dog, Uno. We met for a meet and greet and I felt like Patricia was very knowledgeable about animals, and our dog would be in good hands. She sent lots of photos and updates and Uno seemed happy. She has cats and watches other dogs, so our dog even had friends to hang out with. I would use Patricia again in the future.”
“Josefina was responsive and took good care of Harry my pup. Glad to hear he was not reactive with the other dogs in her care as he usually is when we're out in public.”
“Bernard and Hung did a great job taking care of Chester! They were very flexible and communicative with us, sending updates and pictures. Chester seemed like he had a fun time under their care and was dropped back off to us on time, safe and sound :)”
“Leiani was great with my Vizsla! I love that she has a V around the same age too so my pup had a buddy! She knew exactly how to handle my baby…the velcroness and energy level. Leiani sent me pics/videos daily during their adventures. I highly recommend Leiani…esp to all the parents of “special” pointers like mine 🤣”
“Armida took excellent care of our Bobo and Bingo, they loved being with her family and their dog. We received regular updates on their feedings and exercises with daily photos. We were nervous and worried about leaving them for over three weeks, but they seemed happy and comfortable every day. They even looked more confident when we picked them up. We're so lucky to have such a wonderful dog sitter nearby!!”
“Thai did an amazing job taking of my two girls! I was a little worried that they might get homesick, and not eat well. She messaged me and updated often on how they were doing. She also sent videos and pictures for me as well, which was really nice. I would highly recommend her, and I myself would definitely book with her again!”
“Wendi was an actual dream. She set up the meet and greet and was able to come through at the last minute when someone else bailed. She worked with my dogs unique personality, sent me lots of pictures and let me know what was going on with him. I felt like my dog was safe with her, and LOVED! Really I can’t be happier with the experience.”
“My dog had the best time staying with Alvaro while I was away. Alvaro made sure to keep me updated with lots of cute pictures and videos, and I could tell how happy and cared for he was even though my dog can be difficult sometimes. Thank you Alvaro! I'll be sure to book again next time ☺️”
About: I have been around dogs most of my life. I have a 9 year old Vizsla and have fostered for a Vizsla rescue and watched dogs for deployed military for the past few years. I have also watched several dogs for neighbors and friends over the years and really enjoy it. I love dogs and live in a dog-friendly neighborhood and city. I work from home, so I am able to give dogs a lot of attention and activity. I especially welcome active dogs like mine that enjoy walks, park playtime, dog beach, hikes and more. When I have looked for sitters for my dog over the years, I have looked for people who have experience with the breed and are ready for the velcroness, silliness and shenanigans that come from a pointer. While I am happy to host any friendly, well-behaved dogs, I also want the Vizsla, GSP, Weimy community to know…I get you and I’m ready 😬 Schedule similar to my dog’s. Usually outside every 4 hours or so for walks/playtime. Plenty of outside play time. I also have a doggy door to the back patio if your dog likes to bask in the sun like mine during the day I’m at home and don’t leave the dogs for long on their own. I interact with the dogs throughout the day and esp at our community park where they can play and run with other well-behaved dogs in the neighborhood. Dogs that stay with me have roaming privileges throughout the house. I have dogs beds throughout, but they are also welcome on the beds, sofa, etc.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Fountain Valley is $63
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fountain Valley
This was first time working with Armida and she was awesome! She took great care of both our little guys by paying attention to all their individual needs. This included their feeding schedule, medications, and individual quarks. This was especially important as one of them is a senior dog with special needs. Armida kept them companied the entire time and provided us updates. Thanks again and we will definitely be booking our next stay with you.
This was Finn’s 2nd time staying with Al and his wife, and another great experience. Finn was happy to see Al when we dropped him off, and clearly felt very comfortable popping back into their home. We had great communication while we were gone. We will definitely rebook with Al!
Leiani was great with my Vizsla! I love that she has a V around the same age too so my pup had a buddy! She knew exactly how to handle my baby…the velcroness and energy level. Leiani sent me pics/videos daily during their adventures. I highly recommend Leiani…esp to all the parents of “special” pointers like mine 🤣
Teri was excellent. I had to head out of town last minute and she was super accommodating. My dog was very well taken care of during his stay and Teri is very engaged through the stay keeping the dogs well entertained and well cared for. Gave regular updates and never worried for a minute. Would definitely recommended.
Nicolas was AMAZING! We can’t recommend him enough! We have two dogs, one of which is more reactive, and Nick did an amazing job with both, they loved their stay, and he kept us in the loop and updated with all of their adventures together! We would highly recommend Nick for all of your pup’s needs!
We are so glad to have found Diana! Juni is a young, excitable pup and this was our first time leaving Juni for a long international trip, so we were nervous about leaving her. We completed a couple of daycare sessions with Diana prior so that Juni could feel comfortable with Diana and her home. We could tell that Diana gave her lots of love and affection and we really appreciated the daily pictures and videos. We never felt stressed or concerned about Juni’s wellbeing while we were traveling. We would def book with Diana again if needed!
"Leaving a Great Dane with someone can sometimes be nerve-wracking, but I couldn't be happier with the care Ivan received! He had an absolute blast playing with their dog, and it gave me peace of mind knowing he was happy, well looked after, and treated like family. Communication was great, and Ivan came home happy and relaxed. I am already rebooking for August.
Abigail was AMAZING, this was one of the first times I didn’t have horrible anxiety about leaving my dog with someone. She just handled everything for me and took a huge weight off me for the weekend. He’s a big and playful boy and not a beginner dog, but Tripp was smiling and happy when I picked him up, looked better than when I left him as she was great with his medicine. Zero complaints, I would absolutely book with her again. THANK YOU ♡

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.
94% of Fountain Valley 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 Fountain Valley 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 Fountain Valley 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 Fountain Valley.
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 Fountain Valley 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.
