“Blaze was very kind and attentive to Mila. I got pictures/videos daily and she fielded all of my questions/concerns with the utmost professionalism. Her knowledge about all things animals was evident and I know that my pup is in good hands. I’ve already secured her care for another trip of mine!”
“Irina is so sweet. She took the time to show us here space which made me comfortable leaving my boys with her for the first time. We got updated photo and messages each day which put us at ease. The boys seem so happy and their normal selves when we picked them up. I will be a returning customer!”
“Carrie is the best! She always treats my pup like her own and makes him feel right at home. I appreciate her daily comments and photos. She is my #1 go to when I need a Rover sitter.”
“Sabrina did a wonderful job looking after our pup. Our dog was happy and tired out from all the playing. We enthusiastically recommend Sabrina's services and would definitely be happy to work with her again.”
“We couldn't be any happier with the care that Naiomie gave to our very spoiled fur baby, Colby Jaxx. This was the first time we've left him with someone other than family members. We were a hesitant about leaving him with someone we... or he... didn't know but after meeting Naiomie at drop off made us feel completely relaxed. We got daily pictures and videos of Colby Jaxx which were so awesome to see him interacting with her and the "friends" Colby Jaxx got to meet and play with. Along with the pics and videos, Naiomie would tell specifics about Colby... for example, he would cry a little at bedtime when he couldn't physically see her and she would let me know the different things she was doing to try to help him settle. Even as far as making it so that he could see into her room to know he wasn't alone. I would HIGHLY recommend using Naiomie. I know when we have a need again, she will be the first person we call. THANK YOU NAIOMIE! (p.s. Colby Jaxx misses you and his new friends). :)”
“I just got my fur babies back from Anais’s overnight stay. She was so kind and caring to them! They adjusted well, and I was really happy with how she took care of them and kept me in the loop. We’ll definitely recommend her as a sitter again and can confidently recommend her to other fur parents who need pet care.”
“Denise was wonderful with my puppy. It was his first time being with a sitter for several days. She took care of him like he was one of her own. I had just the right amount of updates for him each day. I will definitely use her when I need a sitter again. She is great!!”
“Valerie was amazing with Whiskey! She took such great care of him and kept us updated with photos and videos all weekend, which really put us at ease. It was clear Whiskey was happy, well cared for, and enjoying his time with her. She took him on walks and gave him lots of love and attention. We’re so grateful to have found someone so caring and reliable. We’ll definitely be booking with Valerie again!”
“Annie is amazing. She was so good with Aries. I absolutely loved the daily updates about what he did for the day. We definitely will be boarding with her again and we highly recommend her services. She treated our puppy so well!!”
About: With 13 years of experience caring for a diverse range of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and horses. I also bring 9 years of experience working in a small animal veterinary hospital as a Registered Vet Tech. I am focusing on pet-sitting as my primary occupation at the moment. My daily routine begins with feeding the dogs and horses, followed by a morning walk around the property. Throughout the day, I allow them to play in the yard, giving them the opportunity for exercise and enjoyment. In the afternoon, to facilitate some quiet time, I either give a puzzle toy or a no-hide chew treat, and we conclude the day with dinner and a final walk before bedtime. I offer boarding services in my home on a fully fenced 5-acre property. The space includes a small fenced-in dog yard, as well as a fence around the front area. I have automatic dog bowls outdoors that provide filtered water and are cleaned often. Additionally, I provide multiple dog beds for comfort. At night, I prefer all dogs to sleep in cages, so I have a designated room with cages for that purpose. I also have one bed available outside, with the option to add more beds if needed. All the dogs in my care are friendly and sociable with each other, and I only accept house-trained dogs that are good with other dogs.
“Ceudi and her wonderful family were great sitters for our senior Boxer (11yr). She was attentive to his medical needs (medicine and care) and stubborn habits. She sent daily updates and always responded quickly to our messages. She lives in a nice neighborhood with a large park nearby. We will definitely be reaching out to her for our future sitting needs.”
“What a great team Marie & James made! Our senior pet is an active part of our family. We were so worried he wouldn’t understand our being away on a vacation without him. Upon meeting Marie and James, our Cooper seemed comfortable immediately. Their calm and openly friendly attitude was apparent. True to their word, daily pictures and videos were sent with texts. Their experience with older dogs and administering of medications was a relief. Can’t thank or praise them enough. Super nice people. Thank you! Cooper thanks you as well.”
“Annie was great with my nervous dog. Annie responded quickly to my messages as we prepared for my dog's stay with her, and sent me pictures while my dog was in her care.”
“We had such a great experience with Amy and Justin! They took amazing care of our 10 month old puppy and gave us complete piece of mind while we were away. They were the first non-family members to ever watch Nala and it was obvious that they genuinely cared about her. We received daily detailed updates about what Nala had been up to along with lots of adorable pictures. Amy and Justin have a big enough backyard to allow the dogs staying with them to play. We were so happy with the care Nala received and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their dog!”
“Wendy made my boys and me comfortable during their stay with her. I never had any concerns and she sent me a pic and vid during their stay. They looked super comfortable and even made a new friend in her own fur baby! Wonton is tuckered out from playing! Thank you again Wendy!”
“Cody the senior Labrador is well cared for by Achara and her family. When I pick him up from a stay at her house, he is always very relaxed and calm. There is this satisfied sense about him. I highly recommend Achara.”
“We are very lucky to have found Brittany and James for our 1 year old male Australian Cattle Dog, Uni. Brittany is very responsive as well as responsible. Uni is energetic & reactive and needs handlers who understand his behaviors / personalities well. They did an amazing job 👏 Thank you Brittany and James and looking forward to our longer stay in the summer! I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a responsible, loving dog care!”
“We had a wonderful experience! Rekha took great care of our dog, Sage, for three days and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She was kind, attentive, and kept us updated with messages, videos and photos, which we really appreciated. Sage came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It was clear he received lots of love and attention during his stay. We are so grateful for her excellent care and would absolutely trust her with Sage again. Highly recommend!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Herald
Celeste and her family were wonderful care givers. Their home was a nice environment with a nice fenced yard and plenty of room to explore and play for our dog. She was attentive and was careful to follow through on our dog's needs. We received updates and pictures during his stay. There were 3 kids in the family that were sooo excited to have a dog visit! They have my dog lots of extra love and attention. The white family was very friendly and kind. I would definitely highly recommend them as pet sitters and I'm sure my dog would love to visit them again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Herald on Rover is $49.95 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 1,647 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Herald. 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.
94% of Herald 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 Herald 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 Herald 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 Herald.
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 Herald 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.
