“Lorelle was super responsive and took great care of our dogs. We got daily pictures of them having fun and knew they were in great hands while we were away. Thanks again!”
“My wife and I booked with Banafshe for a long weekend trip, after our go-to dog sitter was unavailable. We are happy we did. Before the sit, Banafshe was courteous and timely in replying to our handful of messages with questions. She was gracious enough to allow us to bring Huxley over for a quick meetup with her and her lovely family), before the scheduled stay. Banafshe followed up with us the day of to confirm what time we would be dropping Huxley off. Unexpectedly, our pup had a tooth pulled prior to the boarding, and Banafshe was very helpful in ensuring Huxley received his medication (in his food). Throughout the time of the boarding she provided thoughtful updates and photos and was very responsive. She checked in with us to confirm when we would be picking up Huxley and made sure his items we left with her, were in his bag. 10/10. We would trust her and her family with our furbaby again and I highly recommend. 🥰”

“Annie was great! Very thorough and always checked in with us and let us know how he was doing, what’s was going on with his day and sent us lots of pics. She was exactly what who we wanted to watch our Theo and will criminal use her again for our next vacation.”
“Sandra was super nice and communicative through the whole stay about what they were up to and sending pictures. Our dog seemed to really enjoyed staying with their family and got along great with their dog Mocha. Will definitely reach out to Sandra the next time we need a sitter.”
“This was my first time using rover I was a little nervous but I had an amazing experience and Sondra and Kirk were so nice and accommodating when I was running late and leia had a great stay and got updated with photos throughout the day! Thank you can’t wait for leia to stay again!”
“Seriously, she was an absolute lifesaver for our furry friend. We got so many adorable updates and photos, it really put our minds at ease. Knowing our dog was having such a good time made our trip so much more enjoyable. We'll definitely be booking her again for our next getaway. You won't regret choosing her services!”
“We and our dog Cheeto absolutely love Lili. She made Cheeto feel at home while we were on vacation. We received lots of pictures and videos throughout his stay that made us feel at ease knowing he was safe and loved. We can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. After we got home, we mentioned that Cheeto was missing her, and she offered to see him again. We dropped him off for a couple of hours, and she even sent him home with a toy to make him happy. It was such a sweet gesture. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book with her again!”
“Oso clearly had a great time with Gayle and her family. She stayed in touch to let me know that he was enjoying his vacation and sent pictures to show me what he was up to. I look forward to her sitting him again.”
“Ellie and her family spoiled our dog Jager. He enjoyed a great deal of walks and playing. They even offered him a bigger and more supportive bed than the one I brought over. We will see if Ellie and her family are available to dogsit Jager again the next time we go out-of-town.”
“Our family sitter fell through at the last minute due to a family emergency and we had to find another one quickly. Thankfully, SaeWon and her family were available. Our Coco is an anxious dog and requires attention when she’s in a new environment. SaeWon and her family took great care of her and assured us Coco was doing well, sending us updates and photos and videos. We can’t thank them enough for helping us out on such a short notice! ❤️🐶”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Amazing Dog Sitter – Thank You, Wen Wen! I honestly can’t thank Wen Wen enough for the incredible care she gave to my dog while I was away. From the very first interaction, I knew I was leaving my pup in the best hands. Wen Wen is not only professional and reliable, but also genuinely loving and attentive — the kind of person who treats your dog like her own. Every update she sent was thoughtful and reassuring, filled with sweet photos, little stories, and clear evidence that my dog was happy, safe, and truly cared for. It gave me such peace of mind, and I could actually enjoy my time away without any worries. It’s clear that Wen Wen has a deep love and understanding of animals. My dog came home relaxed, well-exercised, and in great spirits — a true reflection of the calm and loving environment Wen Wen provides. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and attentive to care for your furry friend, I wholeheartedly recommend Wen Wen. She’s a gem, and I feel so lucky to have found her. Thank you again, Wen Wen, from the bottom of my heart!”
“I cannot say how wonderful this experience was. Communication was excellent. Multiple pictures sent without asking. I think my dog liked it there better than Home. I cannot recommend this Rover more. I will definitely use them again and I suggest you do as well.! if I could give six stars, I would”
“We have used Patricia several times and she always provides the best service! She treats our dog, Penelope, like her own and shares lots of updates (photos & videos). Penelope loves her time with Patty and her dog, which leaves us at ease when we travel.”
“Lee was absolutely wonderful!! Our pup had the best time, was so well taken care of and we got wonderful updates throughout our trip. We felt so lucky to have Lee watch Griffin and never had to worry about him. Would highly recommend Lee!! Thank you Lee for taking such great care of our pup!!”
“Linda is very friendly and caring for our dog, Moca. They get along very well. Gives us update and send us pictures. She’s also very understanding about Moca’s behavioral changes due to loneliness and anxiety issues after losing his brother, Bowser. Moca likes staying in her house that he almost doesn’t want to leave when we’re about to go home. Highly recommended.”
“This was our second time leaving Kulfi, and they took such great care of her again. Xiaoying sent lots of photos and videos, along with detailed updates that gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. Kulfi looked happy, comfortable, and playful, which means so much to us. We really appreciate how attentive and caring they are, and we’d absolutely book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Jocelyn was wonderful! She was great with communication right away. Our pup loved her and her house! She was so good with sending pictures and taking our dog on a walks! We are excited to book with her again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mission Viejo
Grace had the best time with Neha and her family! Grace stayed an entire month so it was crucial for me to know that she was going to be taken care of appropriately, especially as I was going abroad. This is a stressful time for a dog owner as you want to be sure you are making the right choice. Immediately after meeting with Neha and her husband, I knew that she would be well at Neha's. Grace and Hachi (Neha's dog) hit it off nicely and got along together quickly. Neha's house was very welcoming and dog friendly. Neha and her husband were very kind, they wanted to be sure they could provide appropriate care for my dog and that their dog and mine would get along. All the conditions were there for me, really. During my trip, I was getting pictures daily, and I could tell Grace felt at home there, I saw her playing, resting, smiling. I almost fell bad she would have to leave because she no longer have dog friends to play with at home (my other dog passed away recently). I would definitely ask Neha to watch Grace again and we talked about having play dates for Grace and Hachi in the near future. 5 stars! Well deserved!
Chris took great care of our 3 year old white shepherd and 10 month of maltipoo for 3 nights while we were out of town. He is an exceptional trainer and knows how to communicate with dogs as well as help you become better handler yourself. Our shepherd is an amazing dog but it takes her some time to get familiar and comfortable with other dogs and Chris did a great job handling her and making sure all dogs were safe. In the end they were all friends and were able to free roam with eachother! He also sent daily photos and videos.
Max was treated like family and I’m sure he’ll miss everyone! Banashe n her family were very loving to Max and she sent photos and communicated with us while we were away. This was Max’s first time away from his home and he is very attached but due to the wonderful care he was given he did great. Thank you Banashe for caring for Max as if he was your own. We will see you again!!
This was our first time leaving our Carly with anyone other than family and the first time ever leaving her this long (8 nights!). It is very clear that Sondra and Kirk are huge animal lovers and we felt comfortable leaving our "baby" in their care. Sondra was very communicative and Carly came home happy and exhausted :)
Wonderful and Caring Pet Sitter! Elmira was wonderful with our dog! She was very caring and attentive, followed the feeding schedule, took our pet on walks, and spent time playing and giving lots of attention. She also sent us plenty of photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We truly appreciated her care and would definitely recommend her and book with her again!
Ellie provided outstanding service. She handled my last-minute request with professionalism and dedication, and she maintained clear communication by sharing daily photos and videos. If you need someone to take care of your dog, you should reach out to Ellie. She’s the best!!
My boxer Penelope said with Nick for a long weekend and will definitely be using his service again for my next trip. Nick is quick to respond, send pictures and updates and clearly has a system in place that works. After picking Penelope up she napped the rest of the day! Thank you, Nick for taking such great care of my dog that I was able to enjoy my vacation and not worry about the care of my dog.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Mission Viejo on Rover is $54 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 3,694 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Mission Viejo. 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 Mission Viejo 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 Mission Viejo 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 Mission Viejo 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 Mission Viejo.
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 Mission Viejo 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.
