Irina is wonderful! She provides daily updates and videos of Ziggy. She also notifies me if she observes anything significant about my dog, and gives suggestions. I appreciate that. Thank you for caring for Ziggy.

We boarded our two dogs for the first time with Carrie and her family for an overnight stay. My husband and I could tell right away that they were going to be in great hands. I appreciated the quick responses and the update on how they were doing. We would definitely utilize this amazing family again and feel safe and reassured doing so. Sincerely, The Navarrete Family

I’ve never had a better experience leaving my dog with someone like I did with Blaze! Mia barely wanted to come home at the end of the trip and truly seemed like she was at home with Blaze 10/10 would recommend, honestly won’t ever leave my dog with anyone else as long as Blaze is around thank you so much!!

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!

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.

Catherine is an amazing sitter. Her home is clean and peaceful and my dog had a lovely time there. You can tell she loves dogs and my dog loves her and her husband, even when my husband came to pick him up he went to lie next to Ernie! We plan to use her regularly when we need her service should her schedule allow. Thanks for watching him on short notice!

Cole is the best! She has taken great care of our dog Harley for a few years now while we enjoy summer vacation. She gives Harley the care and attention that she needs while offering playtime with her own dog Aston. She keeps us up to date with pictures and messages daily and provides special treats that she knows Harley loves . I am so thankful we found Cole and we highly recommend her services.

Shannon is amazing. It was our first time using Rover and she was the best person to experience this service. We love it. From getting updates (photos videos and messages) to answering all questions we had the whole time. Excellent service. Highly recommend Shannon, and we look forward having our Luna stay with Shannon and her family in the future. Thanks for everything.

I was really nervous about leaving Lewis behind because he's still recovering from surgery (the wound is healed, but he's still fragile), but Jennifer did a great job of keeping his activity restricted while still making sure both of my dogs got lots of love. She also provided regular (2x/day) updates and daily pictures, so I never had to wonder how they were doing. I will absolutely be using her again when I need a sitter in this area.

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!

Arnesha is amazing! From the very first meet and greet, she made everything so easy for Charlie and helped her feel comfortable right away. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Charlie connected with her so quickly. During the stay, I loved receiving the daily updates with photos and videos. Charlie always looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for. You can tell Arnesha truly cares, and Charlie absolutely adores her. We feel so lucky to have found her! Thank you so much again, Arnesha! Until next time!!!

Second trip for our KC and she was so excited to see Arnesha! They were also super flexible with my travel due to a delay with a flight our KC had to stay an extra day and Arnesha was so accommodating. Needless to say, our KC is excited for her next vacation!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Herald

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Herald on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 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 July 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.

93% 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.
