“Took such good care of my pup Kona, provided daily pics/updates and was accommodating on drop off time. They also transported Kona to another dog sitter, as I was out of town for an extended period. Definitely went the extra mile, highly recommend :)”
“Mark and his son were really awesome with our dog, Thor. We booked a 10 day stay, and Mark provided consistent updates on how Thor was doing. They walked him regularly and played with him often, and they have a great home with a back yard Thor could enjoy. I felt comfortable and confident leaving my fur baby with them!”
“Cerita is a gem! So kind, so sweet and her house is great for pups that enjoy socializing with other pups and has a nice indoor/outdoor vibe for the pups to have some level of autonomy and freedom which is amazing. We would highly recommend and will use her if we come to SD again”
“This is the 2nd time Cristina looks after my two mini aussies. This time it was for a whole month. My girls really enjoyed themselves. Always happy, spoiled and I have always felt at peace leaving them at her home. She and her husband and really great and family oriented people. Thank you so much for looking so nicely after them”
“(Nanay) Pilar is a kind, sweet, and wonderful sitter. My family and I went on a 5-day vacation and left our beloved Rexie. She is always welcoming when we drop off or pick up Rexie. She also sends updates with cute pictures and always reassured us that he is okay and happy. We enjoyed our vacation worry-free knowing our dog was in good hands. Thank you, Auntie Pilar! We and Rexie are all glad we found you! ❤️”
“20/10!! Savannah took amazing care of our pups!! Especially when it came to giving my one pup her eyedrops daily. She took the best photos and I could tell the pups had a great time! 100% recommend and would have our pups stay with her again!”
“Overall, we had a good experience. They were able to accommodate our dog on very short notice, which we really appreciated. Erlinda was quick to respond, her daughter was easy to work with, and our dog was well taken care of. We’re grateful they were able to help us out last minute and would consider using them again.”
“Ami and her home were a great match for Henny. Coco and Henny got along very well during their meet and greet that I immediately knew it would be a great fit. Ami was very understanding and helpful. We received photo updates and when we picked up Henny she was very happy and we will definitely use Ami again and recommend to family and friends.”
“This was Willow’s second time staying with Araceli, and when I picked her up, she didn’t want to come home! Araceli is the best, her manner with pups and her joyfulness with being a sitter is what makes me effortlessly comfortable to leave my Willow with her. Willow loves her “Tia” and she’ll be back!”
“Whitney was incredible! So kind and communicative. We had a last minute funeral to attend and used a new dog sitter and she made us feel so comfortable! Will definitely work with Whitney again!”
“Monique (and her family) watched my senior kitty with chronic kidney disease. I was very concerned about him using the bathroom and being comfortable since it’s the first time I boarded him anywhere. She was incredibly helpful and did a meet & greet with us to see how he would do. We discussed the best set-up for him ahead of time and she really put my worries at ease. She sent me plenty of updates about his situation and pictures of him. He warmed up to them way quicker than I thought he would! He was incredibly comfortable with them after about a day. They really treated him like he was a part of the family!”
“Erika was a wonderful caretaker for my fur baby. She sent updates and pictures every single day. My dog looked so relaxed and happy at her place! I can tell he had a great time with her doggie too. I absolutely recommend Erika, and I’ll look no further when I travel again. Thank you so much Erika! 🌸🌸🌸”
“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.”
“Had our first stay this weekend with Damariz. Freda to to her right away. Damariz was vary caring and attentive. I received updates Freda and she was having a great time. I would recommend without hesitation Damariz for the care of your pets.”
“It is obvious how much Marwa loves cats and takes great care of them. She was a lifesaver for my Felix as he is newly rescued, was sick and not neutered so I had very limited options on where to board him, but she was happy to have him as her only cat for the week I was gone. He loved her and came back a happy cat.”
“Todd and Bill have provided thoughtful care for my last dog Rizzo and my new fur baby Stormy. I'm so glad they are still working with Rover. They come highly recommended by me and Stormy!”
About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 8 years and a cat owner for about 4 years, so caring for pets is a natural part of my daily life. I understand the importance of regular walks, feeding routines, playtime, attention, and keeping pets comfortable and safe. While I don’t offer specialized training or medical care, I’m patient, responsible, observant, and will treat your pet with the same care I give my own. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day and can give your pup plenty of attention, companionship, and regular walks to our local park. My home has a fenced balcony for an additional breather. My pup and kitty will be a great company for your fur baby. I can also crate your pup if needed.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Lemon Grove is $63

Raquel and her family were absolutely incredible! This was Daisy’s first dog sitting experience and we could not have picked a better sitter! From start to finish, Daisy was treated like family (and absolutely loved the ballpit haha). We received updates every day and Daisy looked like she truly enjoyed her time there. We will definitely be booking with Raquel again in the future!
Josh is our go-to sitter! This was our second stay. I forgot to add in my first review that we were delayed in getting home as planned. Josh was super responsive and accommodated us so graciously, knowing our dog was in his care and the coordination added zero stress to an otherwise stressful situation.
Katelyn & Paul always take the best care of our sweet girl Roxy! She is always included in their fun adventures and they send us cute photos and updates just when we are missing her! Thank you both for making us feel at ease knowing Roxy is in great hands when we can’t take her with us on our travels.
This was our first time using Pilar and she exceeded all our expectations...what a wonderful guardian for our 8 year old goldendoodle. She kept us well informed through her notes and pictures while we were away. When he wouldn't eat, she fed him special treats and chicken--just like we would do at home. The best way I can think of how she and Jake bonded was this ...... after greeting me with exuberiance, he turned around to say goodbye to Pilar with the same level of joy.
This is Toby's second staycation with Victoria and I can tell he enjoyed it! Toby was super excited to greet Victoria the moment he stepped into her home. Victoria is kind, gentle and caring to Toby. I knew that he was in good hands while I was out of town. Victoria provided updates and she accommodated to my early drop off and when my flight arrived late. Thank you Victoria - highly recommended!!
Dana took excellent care of my little dog while I was away. She sent me updates and photos; she and her sweet doggy, Wednesday, were very kind hosts. It was great knowing that I left my dog, Canito, in good hands during my absence. I would definitely use Dana's services again without a second thought.
Over the years Gwen has taken care of our little guy, Jake. She's been like a second mother to him making him feel home with her family and loved. While we're away from home, she is the person we trust with our dog. We believe you would be equally satisfied should you choose her to host your loving pet with her. .
Our family loves Christina and her entire family! We got to meet her son today and what can I say.. they are the best. My Jameson is always happy when he sees we are at their home and is always happy when we pick him up. She send pictures and communicates very well.. we are lucky to have them in our lives!
I’m super grateful for Adam’s help with my two dogs. I was happy to know they got plenty of outside time to run around and play. Adam had lots of toys in the yard for the dogs too. He sent plenty of videos and pictures of my dogs throughout the stay which made me feel happy knowing they were safe and well cared for. I will be booking again!
Amanda took such great care of my dog for me and he certainly isn’t an easy one as he has his little quirks that people have to be aware of. All of these updates and photos she sent me really made me feel like roo was apart of their family while I was away. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lemon Grove on Rover is $44.4 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 3,997 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lemon Grove. 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 Lemon Grove 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 Lemon Grove 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 Lemon Grove 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 Lemon Grove.
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 Lemon Grove 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.
