“Lauren and her family looked after Scampi as their own. He was relaxed and seemed too relaxed to come home. He was not in a hurry! I will recommend Lauren and with past experiences I will give her A+! Thanks again Lauren.”
“Morgan was SO much more than expected! She absolutely goes “The extra mile “ to ensure a safe, happy, fun-filled stay for the pups. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for that special someone to care for your pup when you need them. Morgan absolutely exceeded my greatest expectations! I hope I’m able to book with her again soon. My pup came home perfectly content. She almost didn’t even want to come home!! Thank you so very much Morgan 💗💗💗”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience and professional background in caring for both animals and people. I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have cared for them through every stage. From energetic puppies to beloved seniors. I also worked as a veterinary assistant for two years, where I gained hands on experience with animal handling, administering medications, recognizing signs of illness, and providing compassionate care. Today, I’m a nurse, bringing the same calm, attentive, and safety focused approach to every life I care for. I’m trained in canine CPR and emergency life saving measures, so your pet’s well being is always my top priority. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me for years to pet sit because they know I treat every animal like my own. Speaking of my own, I have a sweet 9 year old Pomeranian/Chihuahua named Phil. He’s incredibly gentle, loves other animals, enjoys cuddling, and spends most of his day happily napping. Whether your pet is young, senior, shy, or full of energy, I’ll provide loving, reliable, and attentive care so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work night shifts Monday through Thursday, while my husband works during the day, so our schedules allow for frequent supervision and plenty of one on one attention. We keep your pet’s routine as close to home as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection. If your baby enjoys sleeping in bed, they’re welcome to cuddle with me just like my Phil. I naturally wake throughout the night (day) every 2-3 hours to let the babies out for potty breaks if needed. I take Phil on two walks every day. Once in the morning after work and again in the evening before my shift. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, loving home where every baby becomes apart of our family. I provide care in my home, where your babies safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home has a fully fenced, secure backyard for supervised potty breaks and outdoor time. For added safety, my front door is located behind a locked gate, creating an extra barrier that helps prevent the little cuties from accidentally getting outside. Inside, pups become our family, with plenty of love, attention, and a calm environment. I carefully follow each pups feeding schedule, medication instructions, exercise routine, and any special care they need. With my experience as a veterinary assistant and my nursing background, I’m attentive to changes in behavior and know how to respond quickly if concerns arise. My goal is to provide a safe, clean, and loving home where you can feel completely confident leaving your babies in my care.
“Tracey took on my 3 large and active dogs for over a week and provided the best care to them! She was communicative, caring, and provided us with peace of mind while away. We highly highly recommend her and her family to care for your beloved pets!!”
“Alessandra was so great! I was super nervous using this app for the first time, but feel truly lucky and blessed having found Alessandra! Upon meeting her, I was super comfortable and I felt as though I was leaving my dog in the care of a good friend or trusted family member. She was very attentive and communicative, I appreciated all the updates and photos while I was away. I have nothing but good things to say, and absolutely recommend her! She will def be my go-to dog sitter! She’s the best!”
“Jennifer gave us updates regularly about how our pup was doing. She was very responsive and flexible with pick up and drop off times. Our dog had a great visit with her. Thanks !”
“Emmeline worked out perfectly for us! She was very responsive to our needs and when we met prior to the stay, Lola took to her right away. She was thorough in making sure she had all the info she might need for Lola’s care. The pictures that Emmeline sent throughout Lola’s visit were so adorable and let me know that she was in very good hands. Great experience! Thank you, Emmeline!”
“Mk was amazing! My dog had a great time during the stay, got plenty of attention and playtime. Mk was super attentive, friendly, and made sure my puppy was comfortable and happy. I also got updates throughout the day which gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend for anyone needing reliable and loving care for their furry friend!”
About: I’ve always had pets of my own all different breeds and sizes. I’ve taken care of many of my clients pets from senior homes when needed. I walk, feed, bathe, play and love pets as my own. I currently work part time so I have a lot of availability I also only live about 5 minutes from my job so it’s never an issue. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I follow each pet’s regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets always have fresh water, plenty of attention, exercise, and a clean environment. I closely monitor their behavior and well-being to ensure they are comfortable and stress-free while their family is away. I also provide lots of affection and companionship, treating every pet with the same care, patience, and love that I give my own pets. Most importantly, I carefully follow every detail and direction requested by the owner so their pet receives personalized care tailored to their needs.
“Kristin and Javier took such amazing care of our pup Peter Barker. He absolutely loved Watson and every minute of his time on his vacation. They were great to send us lots of updates and adorable photos. We truly were scared to leave Peter but knew he was in great hands. I would highly recommend them for any sitting needs. We will definitely use them again!”
“My dogs and cat love it here. Allison and her family are very kind. The pups get to play in a backyard (which I don't have at this time), they're very happy. They especially like it when other dogs are there. I feel this is a safe and fun place for them. Even my cat hangs around instead of hiding as he's done at other sitters.”
“I always feel very comfortable leaving my dogs with Raeana. She does a great job taking care of my pets. I highly recommend her and always will go back to her when I need her services.”
“Kayleigh was awesome! We felt so comfortable leaving our dog with her and her family. We're so thankful we found Kayleigh. We will definitely have our dog stay with her again!!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Hilmar on Rover is $34.41 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 194 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hilmar. 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.
100% of Hilmar 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 Hilmar 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 Hilmar 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 Hilmar.
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 Hilmar 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.
