“Sunny was great with Marley, my 6 y/o weimaraner. Marley wouldn't eat so Sunny mixed moist food with her kibble and sat with Marley until she ate. Sunny walked Marley regularly and sent me great photo's of Marley and another dog at the beach. I would highly recommend Sunny to watch your dog. I will definitely use her again. Five stars!!”
“Gretchen did a wonderful job taking care of my Luna. She sent pictures and updates whenever I asked how she was doing. I’ll definitely rebook for any future trips!”
“I am sincerely grateful to Alexa and Cody for their care of my 6 month old puppy, Bambina. She’s tiny, and still a little timid so I’ve been worried about having her stay with a sitter. I knew as soon as I met Alexa and Cody that Bambina was in great hands. They are genuine, kind, and truly caring people who adore the dogs they care for.”
“Karen is a must use when it comes to you’re little loved ones! She is compassionate, knowledgeable, prompt and accommodating. She understands the trials of leaving your family pet with a “stranger.” She has taken away the worry of wondering who I can trust with my pup.”
“Melissa and her family are incredible!. We've always had positive experiences with all rover.com sitters but Melissa is something else entirely. She is the warmest, most down to earth, glad-hearted sitter we've ever encountered. Her and her beautiful family showed our Milo more love than he could have hoped for, kept us updated during our travels with continuous photos and updates on our golden boy, giving us incredible peace of mind. They really took care of our boy and we COULD NOT be happier with the entire experience. We are new to Newport beach but we have now found our dog sitter! Give Melissa a message when you need sitting - you will love her and know that your furry family member is in the best of hands. Could not recommend her enough!”
“Lindsey did an amazing job taking care of Archer for the past week! She went above and beyond to make sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She took him on walks, made sure he had everything he needed, and even went out of her way to get him food when he needed it. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Archer and wanted him to feel right at home. I really appreciated the extra effort and peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”
“Jessica was excellent! This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t be more thankful for the experience Jessica gave us. Drop off was easy, she sent us daily updates with pictures and pick up was very easy. We felt like she cared for our pups (4) like they were her own or like we would. It’s hard to leave your dogs with someone you don’t know but thanks to Jessica it was easier.”
“Sung was an amazing carer for my dog Pumpkin! He went above in beyond in playing with pumpkin and also took him to the beach on a beautiful sunny day. Highly recommended!! Thank you so much Sung!!!”
“This was our first time using Rover and leaving our dog, Otis, with someone for over 5 days. We were so grateful and lucky to have found Amber. She and her family took in Otis as their own and he had a wonderful time. My wife was nervous about leaving him with someone else, but all the videos, photos, and updates that Amber shared most definitely left my wife at ease and she looked forward to seeing those updates every day. Otis had an amazing time; he was well taken care of, played all day, enjoyed new walking routes, and made new friends. Amber understood all of Otis's unique personality quirks and went to great lengths to ensure that Otis felt comfortable. We will most definitely use Amber again and know that Otis will be well taken care of!”
“My dog Pepe loves Magdalena’s house! She and her family take great care of him every time, and they’re very understanding of and accommodating towards his peculiarities and needs as a senior dog. We can’t recommend her enough!”
“Chewie has stayed with Janice twice now and both stays have been great! He gets plenty of walks and play time and enjoys sleeping on the couch or bed ☺️. I would recommend Janice and will definitely be using her services in the future.”
“Lisa and her husband Phillip and their 2 children were absolutely fantastic. They treated our Chloe like she was a member of their family and took excellent care of her. Look no further you should use Lisa and her family to board and care for your precious dog.”
“Jerilee did an amazing job taking care of our German Shepard mix. She was extremely responsive and communicative, sent loads of updates and pictures, and gave our pup plenty of love and attention while we were away. Thank you Jeri for giving us peace of mind while traveling and taking such care of Chance!”
“Butch and his friendly dog Bailey were excellent hosts to our dog Molly!! Molly was well taken care of and got plenty of attention and exercise everyday. Molly also got to play with some new friends at the nearby dog park during her stay! They even taught Molly how to use the doggy door where she had access to the nice fenced in yard to run and play fetch in. We would gladly book with Butch and Bailey again. Thanks for taking such great care of our pup!”
“Emily watched after our Corgi (Zoey) for a few days while my wife and I were out of town for the weekend, and she was great! She was very friendly and easy to work with - she was very responsive when working to arrange Zoey's stay, and was very flexible in arranging pick up/ drop off. We appreciate receiving pictures while Zoey's staying with someone, and Emily did not disappoint by sending regular picture updates. Overall a great boarder we would not hesitate to use again... and Zoey tells me she had a great time too! Thanks Emily!”
“Vanessa watched my Toki for me for 3 nights and she did the most amazing job! I like to keep Toki clean and she came back to me in very pristine condition. I feel so comfortable leaving Toki with Vanessa, I’ll definitely book again 🎉”
“Our girl Lucky 🍀 had a great time with Kelly and would recommend them, great setting for dogs and they clearly enjoy having extra animals around. Nice to know we have a place to take our pet next time we leave town.”

Repeat customer here !!! Shannon is great!!! She took great care of my fur baby. I can see that he feels comfortable and “at home” at her place. Shannon gives me updates with pictures of my baby often and is very responsive and flexible. She will be taking care of my baby again in a few months 👍 I highly recommend Shannon
I am sincerely grateful to Alexa and Cody for their care of my 6 month old puppy, Bambina. She’s tiny, and still a little timid so I’ve been worried about having her stay with a sitter. I knew as soon as I met Alexa and Cody that Bambina was in great hands. They are genuine, kind, and truly caring people who adore the dogs they care for.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I was in town for a business event and needed someone to take care of Penny for a few days. He was incredibly responsive and respectful, took great care of her, and sent me pictures and updates every day. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. If I lived locally, I would absolutely use him again!
Kim and her partner did an amazing job keeping me and my fiance at ease while we travelled in the area for the weekend. It was our first time leaving Lemon and Nori with someone outside of friends/family. She did a great job keeping us updated with cute pictures and our dogs loved their stay. We will book again next time we travel to this area. We only hope to find someone just as great in our city.
Catherine was so sweet and responsive throughout the entire process! Her pre-screening questions were very helpful and made the boarding process seamless and easy. Most importantly, Oso immediately felt comfortable with her, which says a lot because he can be a little anxious in new environments. He was so comfortable that when I dropped him off, he didn’t even look back 😂
This was my first time using Rover. I always ask a close friend or family member to take care of my Blu if I go out of town. So to give my Blu to someone whom I just met, was a very scary thought. But Tate couldn’t have made me feel more comfortable as an owner. 10/10. The moment my dog met Tate, it was like he had known him for years. Tate has such a caring and warm spirit, and I believe my dog felt that the moment he walked through the door. Tate sent multiple pictures throughout each day, showing that Blu was in good hands. My first experience with Tate (and Rover) couldn’t have gone any better. If you’re scared/nervous about leaving your pet with a dogsitter like I was, I would highly suggest leaving them under Tate’s care. Tate is the best and he’ll be seeing Blu again.
Laura was wonderful with Oso! She had great communication throughout his stay and was so sweet and welcoming. She has such a great personality, and I immediately felt comfortable leaving Oso in her care. I would definitely recommend Laura and look forward to having Oso stay with her again!
Nicolas was AMAZING! We can’t recommend him enough! We have two dogs, one of which is more reactive, and Nick did an amazing job with both, they loved their stay, and he kept us in the loop and updated with all of their adventures together! We would highly recommend Nick for all of your pup’s needs!
Abigail was AMAZING, this was one of the first times I didn’t have horrible anxiety about leaving my dog with someone. She just handled everything for me and took a huge weight off me for the weekend. He’s a big and playful boy and not a beginner dog, but Tripp was smiling and happy when I picked him up, looked better than when I left him as she was great with his medicine. Zero complaints, I would absolutely book with her again. THANK YOU ♡

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Huntington Beach is $54 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $78 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 5,169 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Huntington Beach. 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.
94% of sitters in Huntington Beach 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 Huntington Beach 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 Huntington Beach.
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 Huntington Beach 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.
