“Sorry, my review is late. Blaze cared for our black lab, Bingo, on about a 10-minute notice. An issue came up that required us to travel overnight unexpectedly. She was very nice and sent a note and photos to put us at ease about our care choice. Bingo seemed to like it there.”
“We’re so glad we found Sabrina go watch our boys. The location was very nice and safe. They had lots of play time and good walks. She is a great sitter and we will for sure book with her again in the future.”
“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.”
“Annie is great! She’s so sweet and kind! She accommodated every need for my Bella and went above and beyond. Check ins were good and she even bathed my dog. She treated Bella like her own and for that, I’m thankful!”
“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.”
“Stephanie was amazing with my two little pups. This was my first time using Rover and I was a bit nervous leaving my doggies with a stranger. However, Stephanie suggested a meet and greet beforehand and I knew they were in good hands!”
“My pets came back from their 3 night vacation with Lori healthy and happy! Their stay was seamless. I received information about their care in a timely fashion and I felt as though they were in the next best place to home. Thank you Lori”
“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.”
“Pranavi was amazing! My pup Tanner was immediately comfortable and playing with the other dogs. He barely even noticed me leaving. Her space is lovely and clean for the dogs to be outside or inside. She did an amazing job of sending me photos and videos over the weekend. I highly recommend her!”
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. I have been a go-to sitter for family and friends for many years and look forward to having your furry friend join my dog Trixie and me for the day. I am a notary who works from home. My notary work takes only a few hours a week, so I have lots of time to be present and care for your pet. Trixie and I would enjoy taking your dog on walks in the neighborhood; we have a park around the corner. I have a fenced backyard with room for your pet to run around or stretch out in the sun and relax. My 13-pound dog Trixie is calm and friendly and loves having other dogs come to stay.
“Alexis and her family have watched our Golden Retriever twice now. They take such great care and treat her as their own. Bella is so excited to see them and knows where we are headed when we are in their neighborhood. She comes home tired and I couldn’t ask for a better family to watch her.”
“Alexandra made our first rover experience great! She provided us regular updates with photos, and gave us peace of mind while Yeti was away. She’s so thoughtful and makes sure your pet has a great stay!”
“Minhhan has been wonderful with our senior Shih Tzu. Delilah has lots of anxiety and it takes time for her to feel comfortable around new people. Minhhan has been very patient with Delilah and Delilah has become very fond of Minhhan. We have already set it up another boarding appointment with her. You can definitely tell she is an animal lover and Delilah and our family are so happy to have found Minhhan.”
“Lynn was awesome! Before we left she asked all kinds of important questions to help our dogs' stay be a comfy one - like sleeping preferences. We love that she was familiar with small dogs (having two of her own) and knew how to make them feel comfortable in her home, taking him around to walk around the house, introducing the dogs to him one by one. On her own without asking she sent daily pics of max and his stay and at the end of his visit even gave us an overall update - like that max seems to be comfortable in crates when he is resting. Max seemed super happy and comfortable with Lynn and I feel like she provided the best personalized care. I wouldn't trust any one else to care for max the same way!”
“This is Ruby’s second stay with Abraham! When I picked her up today, I noticed the way she was looking at him and she’s obviously in love!! That is wonderful news for me because I do travel often enough and I love to leave Ruby with someone who she truly loves and enjoys. Thank you so much, Abraham.🐾🐾❤️😘”
“All I can say is amazing. I needed someone to watch my dog two days before my trip since my family canceled on me last minute. Hana immediately accepted Sadie. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone else longer than 4 days so I was a bit nervous. However, Hana updated me with pictures and videos every day from the day I dropped sadie off. She made me and my dog feel secure. My dog is also picky and did not want to eat the food I sent, so Hana went out of her way every day to prepare fresh food for my girl. I can tell Hana is knowledgeable about dogs and even gave me advice on how to appropriately feed my dog. I am forever grateful to you Hana. Thank you a million times. We found a forever sitter. 🩷”
“Brittany and James took a GREAT care of our dog (Blue Heeler) for a little over two weeks. They are very professional, reliable, and responsive. On July 4th, they did everything they could to calm our dog since he was very scared of fireworks. My dog loved to cuddle between Brittany and James 😁 Thank you so much for giving love to Uni and for what you do! I would recommend to anyone who is looking for a responsible and loving care for your pups! 🐶”
“Ani took SUCH amazing care of Maisy! She sent lots of pictures and updates. I honestly felt bad picking her up because she has so much fun with them! I will absolutely use Ani in the future!!”

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 of Dog Boarding in Herald is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $71 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,648 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 routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Herald can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Herald home-away-from-home, 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 , 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 .
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.
