“Lynn and Marty are dog people through and through. They are so welcoming and took such great care of my Doberman, also while he was injured. Their yard is perfect for backyard adventures and I would absolutely book with them again. Thank you so much!”
“Candice was very accommodating as this was our first Rover booking. We were nervous about leaving our dog as he has never been kenneled but it worked out perfect. Candice has other small dogs and our dog seemed curious and relaxed after arriving. I would highly recommend Candice and she seems to genuinely care about animals.”
“Danielle was awesome...she accepted the booking with little notice, and took such great care of Skye. He had playtime in the yard & walks....he was a very happy boy. Danielle kept me updated with photos....would definitely recommend!”
“Our doggie had such a great time with Jacob!! Their dog Mango was such a great buddy and we got many great pic and video updates. Super responsive and communicative. Great vibes, highly recommend!”
“Amber was wonderful and attentive. She runs a tight ship with dogs of all sizes, and knows what she can handle. We had a great meet n greet at the local park so she could become acquainted with our doggo. We were fully confident of his care. This is her business. She takes their well-being seriously and the dogs always have an eye on them. Plenty of exercise and excursions around the neighborhood are incorporated daily. We would love to have our doggo vacation with Amber again.”
“Cheryl was wonderful while I was away visiting family. It was my first time using Rover.com and what a wonderful experience! My pup Evey seemed to have a blast and I felt very comfortable leaving her with Cheryl and her precious pup Honey. Cheryl even sent pics of Evey while I was gone and kept me posted on how she was doing. I was very pleased with this experience and would highly recommend Cheryl. I will be using her again in the future!”

I've taken care of a myriad of pets, all with different personalities and temperaments, throughout my entire life (dogs, cats, chickens, horses, etc) I love working with animals, big or small, and will ensure the safety and happiness of your pets! I have complete availability, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups and give them my full and undivided attention!

I live at home where we have a large, fully fenced yard with plenty of both shade and sun. We have 2 friendly dogs and 2 rarely seen cats. The neighborhood is very walkable, and the beach is closeby!
“Jorrit helped me out super last minute with a pop up work trip and my Dooney had a blast! He came home ready sleep because he got to play so much. Couldn’t recommend more”
“Cohl stayed with Jeanine last Saturday and had a great time. She opened her heart and home to my little old lady! And her pups were just as sweet!! This was my first time using this site and I don't think I will find another Jeanine! Cohl is around 12 and is having some health issues. Jeanine has the patience and heart of a saint! ”
“Miguel took good care of our sweet dog. We received photos & confirmation of her well being. He seemed sensitive to her needs. We will definitely request that he take care of her in the future.”

“Adela was wonderful! She was very accommodating with our busy schedule while visiting family in Santa Barbara. Our dog Lena enjoyed her time with Adela and her sweet dog Larry.”
“Thanks Ada! I am so glad our tuna had fun kids to play with and a nice big yard to run around in. We very much appreciated the updates while we were away from our most precious pup! I will have to find out what new tricks the girls taught him. So far he seems happy to be home and cuddle. Thanks again for making everything about our trip so easy and for loving tuna so much. We will definitely call you when we need to go out of town again.”
“Mallory was nothing short of incredible taking care of Gus. She is attentive, caring, responsible and communicative. Highly recommend her and looking forward to working with her again.”
“Kay is awesome. My pups liked her right away, and our boy Moose snuggled with her at night. They also enjoyed her yard, it was the perfect size for two 10lb dogs. Our girl loved playing frisbee on the grass. Moose liked to sniff and explore. We would highly recommend Kay.”
“Wow, words can not even express how pleased we were with Claudias care and attention to details about making our pup fee welcome and part of the pack! She even made an awesome goodie bag with little pictures of his stay. They gave him organic home made trays by Claudia and he absolutely loves them. Thank you so much for watching our fur baby and if we need a sitter again, you will be the first amazing sitter that will come to mind. I highly recommend Claudia to care for your dog!! 10/10!!”

Danielle was amazing! We were in a bind and our puppy wasn’t feeling well during our vacation. Danielle was a lifesaver. She not only came to pick him up but sent regular updates to let us know how he was doing. She handled his tummy troubles like a pro and was calm, reassuring and confident. She helped his anxiety with comfort, snuggles and walks. We are so glad we found her and will definitely book her again in the future! Highly recommend.
Jeanine is awesome! Great communication getting the dog sitting set-up. As soon as I arrived at Jeanine's home, I was immediately put at ease. She is warm and kind and our dog Lola happily went into the house with her. Jeanine sent me an update and photo later that evening and again in the morning. Lola looked relaxed and happy in Jeanine's care. Highly recommend!
I felt very comfortable leaving my baby with Stephanie right away her little dog got along with my dog perfect and he didn't even look back when I left so I know that he was in a good spot and I picked him up and he was having a great time he was tuckered out that night I will definitely visit Stephanie again
Adela is a fantastic dog sitter and gave us great peace of mind on our vacation! She and her daughter gave our dog care and cuddles, and even took her for a hike and to the beach. Our dog gets nervous when we’re away and stops eating, but Adela handled that like a champ. It’s always hard to leave your pet with a new person, but Adela made the whole process as easy and comfortable as possible. I can’t recommend her enough!
We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Lauren! Our 8 year-old Golden was so clearly well cared for and happy during her stay with their younger Phoebe. Lauren was responsive, attentive, and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind. It’s obvious she truly loves dogs and treats them like their own. We look forward to using her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible dog sitter.
We were looking for a dog sitter on a visit to SB and were thrilled to see Eve on Rover. We knew Eve from many years ago and knew that we could trust her to care for our dog, Daphne. Daphne is not a beginner dog. She is a guarding/working breed mix. Once you earn her trust, she is an absolute sweetheart. But, you have to do the work to earn her trust. We scheduled a meet & greet with Eve. She accommodated us rescheduling it after Daphne got skunked, twice, on our trip. At the meet & greet, Eve took time to sit down with us, understand Daphne, give her time to adjust, feed her treats, take her for a walk, hang out with her for several hours while we left for dinner, and ultimately earn her trust. Daphne stayed with Eve for three days over Labor Day weekend. She had a great time. Eve sent regular photo updates. Daphne loved playing with Eve's dog, Penny. And, when we came to pick her up, Daphne seemed so happy and at ease. Eve gets our highest recommendation and I hope that Daphne will get the opportunity to visit on future SB trips.
Erika took excellent care of our senior dog, who is 19 years old. She had a video meeting with us beforehand and understood his needs. She was very communicative through the Rover app before and during the boarding ,and sent us photos and videos of our dog. We were worry free attending an event in Santa Barbara, because we knew our dog was in good hands with Erika. We highly recommend Erika!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Hope Ranch on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 287 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hope Ranch. 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 Hope Ranch 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 Hope Ranch 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 Hope Ranch 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 Hope Ranch.
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 Hope Ranch 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.
