Jose always does a great job with my doggie. He was able to accept my dog early in the morning with little notice and always sends pics and videos of Hazel on her walks. I book with Jose for every trip I make to northern CA because he’s on the way to where we normally go. I will keep booking him as I’m happy with his care for my dog

Julie did a wonderful job with my anxious german malinois for 5 days. I got regular photos and updates, she was flexible with pickup time, and Stella even got a gift bag when she left. I would 100% trust Julie and her husband to care for my fur baby again!

About: My experience includes feeding, daily walks, playtime, companionship, and maintaining each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable. I’m patient, observant, and always prioritize safety and cleanliness. While my experience has primarily been with dogs, I am open to caring for cats and am eager to learn their routines and specific needs. I carefully follow all instructions provided by pet owners and communicate any changes in behavior or health. I treat every pet as if they were my own and aim to provide loving, dependable care owners can trust. Weekday availability includes 5:00–7:00 AM and evenings after 4:00 PM. I am also available for weekend boarding. I’m at work from 8-3 while my days off varies I follow each pet’s routine closely, prioritize safety and comfort, and maintain clear communication with owners whether caring for pets in their home or mine.

I was a little uneasy leaving our 3month puppy just because we never left shadow anywhere before. But Shyla was great and sent photos and video of shadow playing and just being free! I love he got to have a big backyard yard to roam and play with her other dogs. He didn't want to leave! 😆 Will definitely rebook, and will be dropping shadow off from time to time just for day care. Book this lovely family for your fur-babies!!

Stephanie and her family greeted me and my pups with a warm and authentic welcome. They live in a terrific neighborhood on a cul de sac with no through traffic. There home and backyard was spacious enough for our energetic GSP’s and they had fun playing with their family dogs. We were updated with great photos of our dogs playing and resting by Stephanie. You can’t ask for a better set up with a fenced in pool for security.

Akie is absolutely fantastic! I had my dog boarded with her for 9 days and she was sending me updates with pictures and videos everyday with my dog! She really does care for them and makes sure they get enough exercise outside, treats, and love. I would recommend her to anyone with their dogs! Thanks again!

About: I have worked and cared for animals all my life. Grew up and worked on various ranches and farms. Living on an organic almond farm now with my service dog I trained myself after rescuing him. Currently enrolling in Animal Behavior College while volunteering at local shelters and pet sitting and dog training/walking on the side. Available most times when I am not volunteering at the shelter or working on the family farm. Very flexible schedule and willing to accommodate busy schedules. I live on a small farm outside Mcfarland Ca. Lots of room to run, play, sniff, and even swim in the farms pond! We grow all organic almonds so no need to worry about pesticides. Three farm dogs, Two separate gated areas, and can be brought inside and crated at night.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - McFarland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in McFarland on Rover is $22.1 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 151 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across McFarland. 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.

80% of McFarland 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 McFarland 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 McFarland 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 McFarland.

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 McFarland 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.
