“Adriana and her fiance did a fantastic job watching our puppies. We received daily updates and amazing pictures. They stuck to their schedule and treated our puppies if they were their own. They met with us before hand for a meet and greet and put us at ease. We can't thank them enough for all they did. We will definitely be using them again in the future.”
“Madison and her husband were amazing! They were very accommodating with me when I wanted to add an additional day and additional pick up time. They made sure to send many pictures and updates. They even gave me tips on training to make sure what he was taught in those days, stuck. I'll definitely be bringing him back for future stays!”
“Kaitlin and Verle did an amazing job of caring for our dog Punky! They were extremely proactive about getting to know Punky and her particular needs (separation anxiety, dog reactivity), and making sure we were comfortable with their apartment--which, by the way, seemed to be an ideal environment safe for a dog with easy access to a fenced patio. After picking up Punky, she has seemed happy and relaxed. Strongly recommended!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who has had dogs my entire life. I currently share my home with two wonderful dogs who are truly part of my family. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I believe they all deserve patience, kindness, and lots of love. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, belly rubs, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I’ll treat your dog with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m dependable, responsible, and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member! I currently work Monday thru Thursday. You are welcome to drop off on Thursday evening with a pick up on Sunday anytime. I will spend my time with your fur baby making sure they are having a great time and well cared for. I have a fenced yard and 2 dogs of my own to keeps your fur babies company. They are allowed on furniture. I love snuggles and will take lots of pictures of your pets while you’re away.
“Linda took wonderful care of my dog, Nicky. While Nicky was with her, we felt completely at ease. She kept us updated with photos, which meant a lot to us and showed how much attention and care she gives. Linda also took the time to get to know both us and Nicky, which made the experience even more personal and reassuring. I would absolutely recommend Linda and would trust her again to take care of my dog in the future.”
“Hercules and Apollo love Pilar! Definitely would recommend. I was on vacation for a week and I didn’t have to worry at all about my two dogs. She sent me photos and updates every few days. Great experience. I will use her again for any occasion. Thank you Pilar for everything.”
“Corinne and Christopher are great Rover sitters. They were very responsive to messages and most importantly took great care of my girl Busaba. I felt like she was in good hands. I would definitely recommend them and would use them again.”
“DeeDee has stayed with Doug and his family a number of times over the last year and a half and our little doggie runs to their door each time I take her over❣️ That is the best proof of just how happy and lucky we are to have found this loving, caring family to take care of DeeDee when we travel! Plus, she not only has a family who each one loves her and keeps her safe but also has two little doggy friends to romp and play with...perfect!!!”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better host for my pups! Bailey took the time to ask questions and accommodate for what would work best for my dogs’ needs. She also made sure my dogs had plenty of time outside in her private yard which I’m sure my dogs loved. To top it off she sent me daily pictures and updates, which put my mind at ease. I highly recommend Bailey!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lakeside
I had a wonderful Rover experience with Jonathan. I have a three year old GSP with a ton of energy and he had an amazing stay with Jonathan and his family. The yard gave him ample room to play and run as well as the other dogs to socialize with. My pup came back happy and tired! Jonathan sent me multiple videos and photos throughout the stay and treated my pup like one of his own, which gave me peace of mind. Definitely will book Jonathan again in the future.
Barbra and her girls wonderful! This was our dog's first time staying overnight with them and they were so patient and understanding while he warmed up to staying in a new place. They made him feel welcome and gave him lots of love and attention. Thank you, Barbra!
Taylor and Andrew gave us such peace of mind leaving our elderly vizsla, River, for 4 nights. Not only are they the most caring people, but they welcomed River like she was one of their own, sent pic and video updates, gave her daily meds, and even introduced her to her new favorite toy. We will definitely ask for another doggie staycation in the future.
Ashley was absolutely amazing with my 6-year-old German Shepherd, Hobbs! From the moment I dropped him off, she was communicative, thoughtful, and kept me updated throughout his stay with pictures and messages that gave me complete peace of mind. She even took the time to give him a really good brushing, and when I picked him up he looked fantastic and genuinely happy. It’s clear that Ashley and her family welcomed Hobbs like one of their own, and I’m incredibly grateful for the love and care they showed him. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and caring sitter. Thank you, Ashley, and thank you to your family for making Hobbs feel so at home—we’ll definitely be back!
Bianca and her family are amazing!!! So great that I almost didn’t want to write this so I could gate-keep them!! I had to leave my guy to go out of state for a wedding and I’m usually a mess about it but I felt completely relaxed and comfortable this time. Bianca communicated well and I could tell how much they were loving on him. It allowed me to fully enjoy my trip which was priceless. He will be back, he was so comfortable with them. Such a great experience!

FAQs for Boarding - Lakeside
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lakeside on Rover is $44.4 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 4,065 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lakeside. 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.
95% of Lakeside 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 Lakeside 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 Lakeside 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 Lakeside.
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 Lakeside 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.
