“Erica was amazing! My dog is afraid of strangers and he was having a blast at her place on the first day. I was worried he wouldn't want to come home he had such a good time. She sent me pictures every day and kept me updated on what he was doing. I'll definitely come back, I was never worried about Wilson the whole time.”
“Pepper had so much fun. This sitter updated me constantly and sent me pictures throughout the days. My dog had so much fun and felt so comfortable with this sitter. I didn’t have to worry about the safety or wellbeing of my pepper with Gabi. Gabi was super quick to respond to me and asked permission before taking my pepper anywhere. I will absolutely use Gabi again and recommend her to anyone that’s using Rover! This was my first time using rover and this experience really set the tone for the app! Amazing dog sitter!!”
“I absolutely cannot express how wonderful Ms. Diane is! She took amazing care of my super shy puppy and put my mind at ease! My little lady warmed up to her right away! Would highly recommend.”
“I'm so pleased with the care my dog (Quincy) received from this lovely family! You can just tell when people really enjoy having dogs around and this family does! The daily updates with photos and videos show Quincy getting walks and belly rubs. Quincy is happy to jump out of the car and go to them when I drop her off. I am new to the area but will continue to rely on this family for their excellent, loving care of my pup!”
“Erin is a very kind, caring, and professional pet sitter. I have a young puppy, and she took amazing care of Luna during her overnight stay. Not only is Erin knowledgeable about pet care, but she also went above and beyond to make sure Luna felt safe, comfortable, and loved while we were away. Since Luna is still a puppy and can be nervous in new environments, Erin took extra time to help her adjust. She even created a cozy sleeping space and set up a crate for her, which made a huge difference. Erin’s home is very pet-friendly, clean, safe, and well-organized, with everything needed to care for animals properly. I felt completely at ease knowing Luna was in such good hands. Honestly, Erin is one of the best pet sitters we’ve had so far, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets. ☺️🫶🏼🐾”
“Angie was wonderful with my dog Beaux. He is massive, likes lots of attention, and even has some quirks. Angie and her family welcomed Beaux like he was one of their own and I got several photos of him having an absolute BLAST. I don’t have enough good things to say about this experience. ❤️”
“Michele is amazing! She took such great care of our pup who felt comfortable with her right away (and he is quite shy). Updates were excellent and made us feel at ease for our whole international trip. Excited to have her as a sitter for Snooki.”
“Linda and Zach were great to Noodle!! They sent me photos, were extremely responsive and my pup was nice and tired from his stay. Would have them watch Noodle again! 😌”
“This is the second time Candace and her family have watched Apollo. He got so excited when we pulled up to the house! We received photos and updates regularly. I can’t recommend Candace and her family enough.”
“Claudia was amazing. I would recommend her to anybody who wants their dog taken care of like they were a special family member. Claudia agreed to take care of my senior poodle at the last minute and was exceptional. She sent frequent pics and updates. My old girl came back happy.”
“Cheryl was a fantastic dog sitter. She sent us many text updates with pictures and made me feel totally at ease while I was out of town, knowing our pup was in great hands. Our dog was a little high maintenance too and I could tell Cheryl went above and beyond to give him a great weekend. Thanks Cheryl! - Leah and Ben”
“Brianna and Charles took great care of our 2 pups on short notice. We received updates and pictures of our dogs daily. They had plenty of play and were properly tired when we brought them home. Thank you Brianna and Charles!”
“Vicki was great with my 8 month old Aussie pup! He did an overnight stay with her. There was a bit of sorting out of things between my pup and her dog, and she handled the situation like a pro. When I came the next morning to pick up my guy the 2 were getting along like old buds. Vicki knows what she is doing. Highly recommend. Thanks!”

“Our pup who is often overly shy with new dogsitters easily adjusted to Cori and Chris (her quickest transition so far as she was snoring on the couch within the first hour). They are both so welcoming, patient, and kind— we already have our second stay booked. Sophie gives her first stay two paws up!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Avery and her family! They treated our dog like family and made us feel completely at ease. Their quick response time and dedicated one-dog-at-a-time policy ensures your pet gets the individual attention they need. We will absolutely be booking with them again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Lilac is $40 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $86 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 November 2026, there are 3,589 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lilac. 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.
95% of sitters in Lilac 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 Lilac 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 Lilac.
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 Lilac 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.
