“Luis took great care of our dog. He seemed happy in every update I received during our trip.I can tell he really enjoys taking care of dogs and will definitely use him again if the need arises.”
“Ashish was amazing. This was our pup’s first boarding, and I was very nervous. He reassured me that everything was going to be ok. He also sent us photos through out the visit! He was super accommodating on pick up time as well. Would ABSOLUTELY bring my dog back here if I needed boarding again!”
“Jeanette was great with our dog, her whole family was very sweet and accommodating. Jeanette always maintained consistent communication, and we really appreciated her taking our relatively new rescue on fairly short notice. We were very satisfied with our dogs stay with her.”
“I'm really appreciate Nadine's care for Laila. She seemed really nervous on the first day despite having a meet&greet beforehand. Nadine was patient with her and she sent an update every day and I love seeing that Laila is getting along with her cute poms. My car broke down on my last day of the trip and Nadine was able to extend the booking for another day and dropped her back to our house.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for 15 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while away. I’m patient, attentive, active, and genuinely love animals. I understand the importance of making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I love taking dogs on hikes and to the beach as well. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I enjoy staying active, spending time outdoors, and making sure pets get the care, attention, exercise, and companionship they need to feel happy and comfortable. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving, and attentive environment and always follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, routines, medications, walks, and special care needs. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and body language to ensure they feel safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.
“Huey was on his way to a large dog boarding place. Jacqueline responded to my message and helped me out at the last minute. She has two lovely poodles as well. Huey was tired and slept hard wen he got home.”
“Deborah had my dog for a week while I was on a work trip. I hate leaving him, but she made the trip so much better with regular photos and updates. He had a great time, and I could not have been more pleased. It actually enabled me to enjoy my trip. Thank you!!”
“Michelle is fantastic! She took good care of my dog, which includes feeding him daily medication and treats. She took him on walks next to the bay and send me periodic updates. 5/5 would recommend.”
“Cooper was very well taken care of and we think he felt part of the family. We also received thorough updates all the time during his visit. We will definitely book again as soon as we are in need! Thank you Wenxin!”
“Gabi was well cared for and loved. She spent a lot of play time in the backyard. I love that Gabi got lots and lots of attention given Kushram being retired. My only gripe would be that I would have liked more updates, but that's only because it was the first time I left my pup with someone else. However, when I would reach out Kushram would get back to me within the hour... I will book with them again.”
“Banksy had an amazing time at Luna's and loved playing with Jim. I felt extremely comfortable leaving Banksy with Luna, based on the questions she asked about Banksy, her attention to detail about his needs and safety, and just her kind warm personality! I loved the pictures each day. I wholeheartedly recommend Luna and will definitely be having her watch Banksy again!”
“It was a roller-coaster at first, previous bookie canceled at the last moment so we had to scramble to find another sitter, flight was leaving in 2hrs. She accepted we have never been separated longer than a work day. Anna was/IS great!! She took great care of Aries sent plenty of pix and had us at ease!! Definitely will be booking her again”
“Ross was awesome! From our initial meeting, he asked all the right questions about the care and personality of my pup. During my pups stay, Ross was great about sending daily photos and updates on how my little guy was managing with my absence. I could see from the photos that my pup and Ross's pup were getting along really well... This left me feeling very comfortable that my pup was enjoying his 'vacation'. Thanks so much Ross! We look forward to Baxter staying with you again soon!”
“Ali is the BEST! She is professional, her home is clean and the pups are all happy. It’s like a dogs vacation. Ali communicates efficiently and provides pics to assure us that our pup is happy and comfortable. Ali is always my go to boarder.”
“We had a great experience with Sarita! She took care of our dog at her place for a week. She was super reliable, communicative (lots of great pics, videos, and updates), and our pup absolutely loved her and her family. Overall, we were at complete ease knowing our dog was with Sarita and we highly recommend her for any of your dog care needs!”
“I’m very happy that i finally found safe, fun and comfortable stay for my Denver. Sabin is reliable, trustworthy and goes above and beyond. My dog was very happy and was playing with their dog (nimki) when i got their to pick him up.. they are such a sweetheart!!! Definitely will book him again! !! Highly recommended!!!!!!!”
“Our dog once again had a great time staying with Sophie! We got really great photos every day and Sophie was very flexible when our timing changed a little. Our dog loves hanging out here and will be begging to return soon for another weekend getaway! Thanks Sophie!”
“Lanette and Dave took wonderful care of our puppy Nova! She’s pretty high maintenance since she’s a puppy, but they handled her like pros! We are so grateful she had a safe place to stay, and we had great peace of mind while we were away. Thank you so much!”
“Our Shepherd/Husky loved staying with Allora and her family. He loved being able to play with their dog Boba, chasing each other around in their large outdoor backyard. Allora was very attentive and sent pictures every day, keeping us up to date with all the activities they were up to, which included walks every day, and being involved in family activities. I will definitely choose to leave him with Allora in the future too.”

Asatur is truly the best pet sitter we could ask for! He takes such amazing care of our dogs, Luna and Pippi, and we always feel completely comfortable knowing they’re with him. He’s incredibly reliable and is always willing to help, even on short notice. One of the things we love most is that he takes care of multiple dogs at once, so Luna and Pippi get to spend their time hanging out and playing with their friends rather than being alone. They absolutely love going to Asatur’s! He’s also incredibly thoughtful and attentive when it comes to their individual needs. He makes sure they’re fed on schedule, gets their medicine right, and genuinely treats them like they’re his own. It’s clear how much he cares about every dog in his care. We couldn’t recommend Asatur more highly. If you’re looking for someone you can completely trust with your dogs, look no further. Luna and Pippi are always excited to see him, and that says everything!
Kushram and his family were so lovely and took such great care of Hobi! They have a beautiful home with a huge and clean backyard for Hobi to run and sniff to his heart’s content. They sent sweet updates and photos throughout the stay. I’m so glad I found such a caring boarder for my anxious little boy!
Kaja took in our 5 month old puppy last minute so our family could go out of town for a funeral. Once I chatted with her on the phone, I knew our puppy would be in good hands. It was a relief to have one less thing to worry about. Kaja was incredibly communicative and sent us photos and videos. Would absolutely rebook.
Pepper now knows Lanette and Dave as Grammy and Grampy. Just like grandparents do, they spoiled pepper! I’m not sure he wanted to come home🤣 Lanette and Dave are wonderful people and I am so happy to have found them to care for our pup. They were personable, responded fast and sent many pics. I highly recommended them!
I'm just so pleased that my pup has somewhere he can feel safe at when he's not with us. He has some separation anxiety and prefers to stay with someone if we have to be gone for a few hours. We've been working with Zoe periodically over the last year, and after a handful of doggy day cares and boarding for just a night or two at a time he's comfortable enough to eat over there when he stays even for a few hours. Thanks Zoe!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Hercules on Rover is $36.38 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 5,400 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hercules. 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.
92% of Hercules 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 Hercules 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 Hercules 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 Hercules.
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 Hercules 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.
